Chapter 30: Man-eating Plants
readx;
The Flowing Fire Swallows who are responsible for air patrols in the territory of the Evergreen Clan are basically low-level demon beasts that have not yet reached the transformation stage, although there is a cooperation agreement, but no high-level demon beast will do this kind of meaningless daily patrol work, not to mention that no human has dared to fly over the territory of the Evergreen Clan for tens of thousands of years, and those Flowing Fire Swifts only need to do deterrent patrols.

Of course, as an aid in defense, the Flowing Fire Swallows also have high-level demon beasts sitting in the territory of the Evergreen Clan, but they disdain to do daily patrols, and only when they find that the enemy has invaded the airspace of the Evergreen Clan, they will go out in person.
Of course, those Flowing Fire Swallows who have not yet reached the transformation stage can only rely on their superior visual observation, and no matter how strong their vision is, it is far less than the distance of divine sense exploration, and it is not as complete as the divine sense exploration. Since Long Xiaoyao was able to spot the patrolling swifts in advance, he could naturally use the cover of trees to avoid the patrols of the swifts in the sky.
But after Long Xiaoyao went deep into the hinterland of the Evergreen Clan, the number of Evergreen Clansmen gradually increased, among which there were not only the existence of the Ascension Period, but also other spirit beasts that were transformed into plants, as well as a large number of spiritual plants, and he was almost unable to continue to go deeper without being discovered by the other party.
However, the medicinal herbs growing on the ground have also become abundant, and those medicinal herbs have faintly possessed spirituality, and the medicinal age is more than 10,000 years. Long Xiaoyao didn't rush to go deeper, but just transplanted all those useful herbs into the Ten Thousand Beasts Order as much as possible.
However, this area still has not yet reached the 10,000 miles of the Evergreen Spirit Tree, and the real super spirit grass has not yet appeared, only some of the herbs that have absorbed the leaked energy have some spirituality, but it is only a very small number of herbs, and the spirituality is far inferior to the central area of the Evergreen Clan, and the most valuable task items have not appeared.
Of course, Long Xiaoyao refused to give up halfway, although the number of evergreen people increased, and various other spiritual plants also appeared frequently, he was careful to avoid it, and sometimes he had to sneak underground. The most troublesome thing is actually to escape into the ground need to escape to a very deep position, the roots of the plant system are deeply rooted in the ground, those with spiritual plants, the roots also have a keen sense of exploration, even if he touches the most subtle roots in the process of escaping the ground, it will be discovered by the plant itself.
However, risks and gains coexisted, and as Long Yao gradually deepened, the number of medicinal herbs and even spirit grasses increased significantly, and his harvest was naturally more abundant. There are many plant varieties in the plant territory, most of which he doesn't know, mainly because the number of plant varieties in the Immortal Realm is too large, and he only reads the encyclopedia of medicinal herbs, but he doesn't know anything about most ordinary plants.
The first risk came when the dragon escaped from the ground and plunged headlong into the territory of a man-eating flower. Although his divine sense is powerful, he is underground, and there is a barrier from the earth, and his divine sense detection distance has been greatly weakened. And the most important thing is that he doesn't know the man-eating flower.
The man-eating flower has a diameter of a few feet, and the color is very similar to the pink of the lotus flower, which looks quite cute. The petals of the cannibal flower are nearly an inch thick, and the whole petal is a whole structure, like a lotus leaf, and the flower stem is the thickness of a human leg, one meter long, but it seems that because the flower is too heavy, the flower stem falls to the ground, and the whole flower is close to the ground.
The dragon was next to the man-eating flower as it emerged from the ground, and the still flower suddenly fell under his hood like a fishing net, enveloping him all over it. The huge man-eating flower was unexpectedly fast, and he couldn't escape at all, so he could only summon the thunder spirit shield to protect his whole body, and summon the Nine Heavens Thunderbolt Sword to cut the petals in order to escape from the giant flower.
As the cannibal flower wrapped the dragon in the air, it spewed out a viscous liquid from the interface where the flower stem connected to the flower. It was the corrosive acid of the man-eating flower, which was used by the man-eating flower to digest the creatures wrapped in it, and its strong corrosiveness would be corroded and digested even by the hard demon beast scale armor and monk magic weapons.
However, the thunder fire attribute can restrain that kind of acid, and Long Yao's thunder spirit cover is the best thunder-based defense spirit treasure. The so-called restraint is that lightning can resist and dissolve the acid, so that the body of the magic weapon is not affected. Of course, the final outcome of the battle between acid and lightning depends on who has more energy.
The acid and the lightning dissolve each other, but due to the restraining effect, the acid consumes more than twice as much as the lightning. However, the acid sprayed by the man-eating flower was very sufficient, and it seemed to be endless, so that Long Xiaoyao had to keep injecting true qi into the Thunder Spirit Cover with all his strength to keep the shield stable. At the same time, the Nine Heavens Thunderbolt Sword of his imperial envoy also flew into the petals.
However, to Long Yao's surprise, the Nine Heavens Thunderbolt Sword flew above the petals, only piercing the petals into a gap of less than three inches, and a large amount of viscous liquid flowed out of the crack. The slime was also very corrosive, and at the same time that the Thunderbolt Sword pierced the petals, the slime also attached to the Nine Heavens Thunderbolt Sword.
Fortunately, the surface of the Nine Heavens Thunderbolt Sword was wrapped in abundant thunder and lightning, and those slimes only corroded and dissolved the thunder and lightning on the surface of the Thunderbolt Sword, but it did not contaminate the body of the Flying Sword, so the Thunderbolt Sword was not damaged. Long Yao secretly called it a fluke, if he hadn't despised the man-eating flower and used the Thunderbolt Sword, I am afraid that any other magic weapon of the imperial envoy would be contaminated with slime.
If Zhou Tianjian was contaminated with this mucus on the body, although it would not be scrapped because of Zhou Tianjian's superior quality, it would inevitably be damaged, and it could not be recovered without decades of nourishment, and if Zhou Tianjian was lost, Long Xiaoyao's strength would drop significantly.
While secretly calling for luck in Long Xiaoyao's heart, he hurriedly recalled the Thunderbolt Sword, and after making sure that the flying sword was not damaged in the slightest, he did not dare to attack with the flying sword itself, but used the power of the sword soul and the qi and thunder of the flying sword to continue to crack the petals that wrapped him.
The petals of the man-eating flower are very tough, even compared to the skin of the Primal Realm demon beast, it is not far behind. However, the Nine Heavens Thunderbolt Sword was already very powerful, and after Long Xiaoyao successfully cultivated the flying sword as the carrier of the sword soul, the power increased even more, and the thunder and lightning had a restraining effect on the cannibal flower, and immediately cut the petals into several cracks.
At the same time, the acid sprayed by the cannibal flower stems was still endless, and in order to resist the erosion of the acid, Long Xiaoyao could only continue to use his true qi to generate thunder and lightning from the shield, and the consumption of true yuan was not weaker than the sword power of the Heavenly and Human Unity Sword Formation of the Imperial Envoy Zhou Tian.
Long Xiaoyao didn't dare to delay for too long, but now he didn't dare to use other magic weapons easily, and he didn't dare to make too much movement, so as not to alarm the Evergreen Clan or the Sky Flowing Fire Swallow.
