Chapter 1398: Intent to Capture Alive but Failed

"Why do you want to deal with me... Haha... You really think too highly of yourself."

Seeing Zhu Bajie approaching, the old vine demon smiled coldly, then shook her body suddenly, and countless vine branches stretched out from her body, twisted quickly in front of her, and turned into a thick vine whip, covering the place where Zhu Bajie's figure was. smoke.

Zhu Bajie didn't react slowly. When he saw a thick vine whip coming, he quickly stopped his forward momentum and swung his ax on the spot, slashing directly.

boom!

The ax collided with the vine whip, causing a loud sound.

Then, the front end of the vine whip was defeated by the power gushing from the axe, and traces of dark green venom splashed out.

However, the ax in Zhu Bajie's hand collapsed because it could not withstand the strong impact and turned into pieces of iron. Only the ax handle remained in Zhu Bajie's hand.

Although Zhu Bajie himself was hit by a force, he was not seriously injured. It was just that his body was violently shaken and he retreated more than ten steps before he stabilized his body.

"Old thief, you are quite capable, but you want to hurt me, but you need more heat... Haha... Come again... I will cut off all the vine tentacles of you, old thief, and drain all the blood from your body venom……"

Stabilizing his body, Zhu Bajie sneered and shouted at the old vine demon. He turned around and took out his treasured weapon, the nine-tooth rake, and flew out towards the old vine demon.

In fact, the strength of the old vine demon is not much different from that of Zhu Bajie. The two of them fight each other desperately, and the final result will definitely be a lose-lose situation with no winner.

For the old vine demon, she was extremely unwilling to see such a result.

After a head-on confrontation with Zhu Bajie, Old Vine Demon, who suffered a slight loss, had already guessed the final result of the fight with Zhu Bajie.

Therefore, she is unwilling to fight Zhu Bajie anymore.

So, the moment Zhu Bajie rushed out, the old vine demon quickly dodged and retreated, and finally turned into a ray of green light and got into the trunk of a big tree not far behind her, hiding its figure.

The old vine demon's concealment methods are extremely clever.

Even an opponent of Zhu Bajie's strength would have difficulty determining exactly where the old vine demon's body is on the tree trunk.

Because he saw the old vine demon getting into the big tree with his own eyes, Zhu Bajie naturally refused to give up. After approaching, he directly swung the nine-tooth rake and smashed it against the big tree.

In fact, when the old vine demon did this, he did not intend to escape, nor did he intend to use this big tree to hide and find an opportunity to counterattack. Instead, he intended to use this big tree as a springboard to hide his body and transfer his position, and then use it to hide his body. Using the branches as a guide channel, he quickly approached Luo Xiaoyan and captured him directly.

Old Vine Demon's actions destined Zhu Bajie's attack to fail.

This was indeed the case. Zhu Bajie hit it with a rake, and the big tree trunk was directly smashed to pieces. The remaining part quickly fell to the ground, but the old vine demon was not seen.

"Damn it, did she escape?" Unable to hit the target, Zhu Bajie was full of doubts and looked around, hoping to find the old vine demon again.

The result made him feel disappointed, he failed to find the old vine demon.

The search yielded no results, so Zhu Bajie had no choice but to turn around and walk towards Luo Xiaoyan's location.

However, when he just turned around and looked at Luo Xiaoyan, he saw Luo Xiaoyan winking at him secretly, indicating that the old vine demon was above his head at the moment.

Zhu Bajie misunderstood Luo Xiaoyan's meaning and thought that Luo Xiaoyan was telling him that the old vine demon was above his head. He quickly looked up and used magic to detect, but still could not catch the old vine demon.

Recalling Luo Xiaoyan's previous command of his attack, he concluded in his mind that the old vine demon might be hiding in a resin bar above his head, so he immediately injected powerful force into the rake, and then quickly swung it upwards. A tree branch.

The fragile tree branches naturally cannot withstand Zhu Bajie's strong attack.

Being attacked by his powerful force, the branches of the trees above him were directly smashed into pieces and turned invisible.

There was a blank space above his head. When he raised his head, he could see the sky.

Seeing Zhu Bajie acting like this, Luo Xiaoyan realized that Zhu Bajie had misunderstood what he meant. He originally planned to use Zhu Bajie's help to solve his troubles, but now, he knew that he had to solve the troubles himself.

The old vine demon hiding in the branches of the trees above Luo Xiaoyan's head realized that this was the best time to take action, so he directly used the spell to release the powerful wood attribute power, turning into thousands of vine branches to form a large net that directly covered the tree. To Luo Xiaoyan, she wanted to catch Luo Xiaoyan in a net and capture him alive.

Seeing that the net of vines was getting closer and closer to Luo Xiaoyan, Luo Xiaoyan did not react at all. He thought that Luo Xiaoyan was deceived by the methods he used. A look appeared on the old vine demon's face. Excited smile.

However, just when the vine net was about to touch Luo Xiaoyan's body, the powerful flame power spurted out from Luo Xiaoyan's body, instantly igniting the vine net covering him.

The vines are part of the old vine demon's flesh and blood body and have extremely strong defensive power. However, in the face of the tyrannical power of fire, her little defensive power seems to be insufficient.

Hit by the power of the flames, the vines were directly ignited, then quickly burned and turned into dust.

I thought I could succeed, but I suffered a big loss.

This result was a bit difficult for the old vine demon to accept.

However, at this moment, she had truly understood in her heart that it was simply unrealistic to capture Luo Xiaoyan alive with her own strength, because Luo Xiaoyan was far from being as simple as she seemed on the surface.

It seemed that at this moment, she truly understood that the reason why Pang Zhongxuan died in the hands of Luo Xiaoyan was related to him underestimating the enemy and to Luo Xiaoyan hiding his true strength too deeply.

Realizing that the situation was not good, the old vine demon immediately used a spell to forcefully cut off the extending vines to prevent the flames from burning along the vines and damaging her body.

Then, the old vine demon quickly used his secret escape technique and quickly fled deep into the jungle using branches, trees and other spiritual plants as guides.

In the process of escaping, the old vine demon was negligent. When crossing the node between trees, the figure would appear at this moment, so it was captured by Zhu Bajie, who had poor observation and judgment skills.

So, he immediately rushed towards the direction where the old vine demon was fleeing with a nine-tooth rake, intending to intercept it.

Less than a hundred feet away, Luo Xiaoyan's secret voice came to his ears: "Senior, stop chasing... In this jungle, it is simply unrealistic to catch up with the old vine demon. Also, she Even though I knew that I had the ability to lock her escape route and even which big tree she was hiding in, I still did not choose to escape outside the jungle, away from the relatively dangerous Tianfeng Valley. There was only one reason, and that was to deliberately lure us deep into the jungle. .”

There may be formation traps in the jungle. Zhu Bajie knew this. After being reminded by Luo Xiaoyan, Zhu Bajie realized that he had almost been fooled by the old vine demon.

At this moment, fine beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and he exclaimed in his heart: "It's so dangerous, it's really so dangerous... I almost fell into the trap of the old thief and stepped into her deep jungle." Formation traps laid everywhere.”
