Chapter 1413: Scare Off the Bloodthirsty Vine
This blood-sucking vine has two major disadvantages. One is that it moves slowly. However, the thirteenth-level blood-sucking vine is not very obvious in this regard. Moreover, its huge body can attack almost anything within a few hundred feet, which makes up for this. Another disadvantage of the blood-sucking vine is that it is afraid of fire. This is innate and has nothing to do with strength, so the giant ghost king used this trick to deal with it.
The ghost flame technique is another treasure of the Ten Kings Hall. Generally, only the master of the first hall can use it. This secret technique is incredibly powerful. It is said that when a cultivator of the ninth level of the Nascent Soul uses it, even a great god will have to retreat when encountering it. However, the conditions for the use of the ghost flame technique are extremely harsh and require a lot of preparation in advance. But who will give you so much time to cast a spell in a master duel? It is clearly a chicken rib, so this secret technique is usually shelved by the giant ghost king. This time, it is also because he knows that there are enough helpers and can buy time for himself, so the giant ghost king decided to use it here.
The Ghost Flame Technique released the Yin Fire used by ghost cultivators, which was no less powerful than the spiritual fire of immortal cultivators. The bloodthirsty vine was hit head-on and its entire body was burning. In the blink of an eye, dozens of vines were burned into a charred black color like carbon strips.
The bloodthirsty vine was constantly twisting and making low hisses, as if enduring great pain. In fact, this is the special feature of the Ghost Flame Technique. The Yin Fire it produced can not only burn the body of the bloodthirsty vine, but also burn its soul. It is burning from the inside out, and it is painful from the body to the soul. How can ordinary people bear that kind of taste?
After all, the bloodthirsty vine has reached the thirteenth level and is very powerful. At first, it did not expect that this group of cultivators would have such a method. It was caught off guard for a while, but it quickly reacted. It was useless to wail like this. It must find a way to extinguish these flames as soon as possible.
So the blood-sucking vine suddenly began to shake violently. No one knew what he had done. The flames that had been crackling and burning vigorously before gradually extinguished. In the blink of an eye, the fire was much smaller. The remaining flames of the blood-sucking vine did not ignore it, but directly cut them off from its body and piled them up in front of it.
The cut vines burned faster and soon turned into ashes, because the blood-sucking vine cut off the connection with them in time, and the flames were extinguished. However, in just a few dozen breaths, the number of vines on the upper part of the blood-sucking vine was reduced by nearly half, and the remaining vines were all sparsely leafed, and the vine stems were burnt yellow, just like bald heads. It seemed that if the blood-sucking vine moved a little slower, it might become completely bald.
After this severe injury, the blood-sucking vine was finally scared. He never thought that this group of creatures that did not look strong could hurt him so badly. If they did it again, wouldn't he be burned to charcoal? After all, the bloodthirsty vine is not a demon beast. It does not have the nature of being desperate for food, nor does it have the courage to fight to the death in the face of difficulties. When it encounters a strong enemy, it will retreat when it knows that it cannot gain an advantage.
Looking at this group of cultivators whose strength has not been greatly damaged, and then looking at the giant ghost king in the crowd whose hands have not stopped, it seems that he is going to use the killing move just now. The bloodthirsty vine shook slightly for a few times, and then made a defensive posture, and the body actually slowly retreated to the back.
Seeing this, the giant ghost king secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not dare to relax completely, fearing that the bloodthirsty vine would see the flaws and come back again, and he would not be able to use the ghost flame technique again. The Ghost Flame Technique not only requires a huge amount of Yinming ghost energy, but also a huge test for the caster's mind. Most people can't bear it at all. It's because the giant ghost king is a ghost cultivator and has practiced a powerful mental attack secret technique. His mind is much stronger than that of the cultivators of the same level. This is why he can persist. If it were someone else, his head would have exploded and he would have died.
So the previous time when the ghost flame technique was cast, the giant ghost king just barely persisted. Not only was the Yinming ghost energy in his body seriously consumed, but his mind was almost at its limit. Now this is just to confuse the bloodthirsty vine, and it is impossible to cast it a second time.
Fortunately, the bloodthirsty vine is not very smart and did not see through the empty city plan of the giant ghost king. In the bloodthirsty vine's mind, since these people can use it the first time, they will definitely be able to use it the second time. He was scared once, so how dare he stay and continue to take the second time? This hunting action is destined to be a loss-making business. Only by retreating in time can the losses be minimized.
The giant ghost king kept holding the stand until he was sure that the blood-sucking vine had completely left. He then swayed and fell to the ground, revealing a tired look. Seeing this, the others quickly surrounded him. Everyone had seen the Ghost Flame Technique just now. The power was really terrifying. It scared away the 13th-level blood-sucking vine with one move. Such a powerful attack would not be possible without paying a certain price. Everyone was worried about whether there would be an accident on the side of the giant ghost king. After all, the giant ghost king was the organizer of this operation and the backbone of everyone. He must not be in trouble.
The giant ghost king seemed to understand everyone's thoughts and did not say much. He just waved his hand at everyone, then sat on the ground and began to meditate and regulate his breath. He was fine in all aspects, but he was seriously exhausted. He would gradually recover after regulating his breath for a while.
Seeing that the giant ghost king was fine, everyone was relieved, so they sat around the giant ghost king to meditate and regulate their breathing. In order to buy time for the giant ghost king, all the Yuanying cultivators went into battle together and set up the Ten Kings Sealing Array to resist the bloodthirsty vine. The nether essence was seriously consumed. Several of them suffered serious internal injuries because they could not withstand the backlash of the formation. They also needed treatment as soon as possible.
There were a total of 33 people who entered the Shenying Garden at the beginning. Three died and one was injured when they encountered the ghost-eating flower before. Eight people were poisoned by the fragrance of the ghost-eating flower and their strength had not been cleared. This time, one person died and three were injured when fighting against the bloodthirsty vine. Thirteen people consumed a lot of energy and their combat power was greatly reduced. That is, the four Jindan cultivators such as Qingyang did not take action, so the situation was slightly better.
After entering the Shenying Garden, they only walked four or five miles forward and encountered two dangers in succession. With so many deaths and injuries, if this situation continues in the future, I am afraid that they will be wiped out in a short time. Although everyone was mentally prepared for this when they came, after all, where the God-Pregnant Fruit can appear, there must be dangers, but no one expected that there would be so many dangers and the situation would be so serious.
