This Tactic... Was Even More Sinister Than an Evil Soul Master's!
"Da na!"
Without hesitation, Ivysaur's golden-red Sun Wheel spinning above its head vanished instantly!
Without the shield's protection, several thick roots from the Nether Ghost Tree, carrying even more violent death gas, lashed Sturdy at Ivysaur's back, which was covered in tough scales!
Bang! Bang!
A dull Tackle resounded, Ivysaur's massive body swayed slightly under the force. Several clear cracks appeared on its tough scales, and even green sap seeped out— Ivysaur's own blood!
"Xiao Xia!"
Bibi Dong, watching from afar, felt a sudden tightness in her heart. A terrifying killing intent instantly gathered in her purple eyes, and her powerful Soul Power almost burst out of her body!
Qian Renxue also clenched her fists nervously.
They had absolutely no idea what Lin Xia was trying to do!
Why abandon defense!
However, in the very next instant when the scales ruptured and the juices seeped out!
Buzz--!
The Grassy Terrain burst forth with an unprecedentedly rich golden-green light!
Like a top-tier healing Soul Skill, countless soft points of light instantly converged at the wound.
At the same time, the Life Force the earth Absorb from the Ingrain, the light energy gathered on Sunny Day, and the life essence continuously plundered from the Nether Ghost Tree by the Leech Seed —three powerful forces, under Lin Xia's precise guidance, were perfectly injected into the wound!
A miracle has happened!
Those jagged cracks healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if a film were playing in reverse!
The oozing liquid solidified and disappeared instantly, and the damaged scales were restored to their original state in the blink of an eye, even becoming more resilient and shiny!
The whole process was incredibly fast; the repair was completed almost the instant the wound appeared!
Ivysaur's swaying body became as steady as a rock again, as if the attack that had been powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks had merely tickled it! The Four-Colored Light Wheel on its back actually became even more dazzling because it had absorbed more energy!
"Roar roar roar--!!!"
This time, the roar of the Nether Ghost Tree completely changed its tone!
It was no longer anger, but rather an overwhelming sense of disbelief, a deep-seated horror, and... a hint of fear!
It watched as its Smack Down on its opponent, causing damage, but the damage was instantly healed the moment the Smack Down!
How can we fight like this?
Every attack it makes consumes itself and nourishes its enemy!
That damned seed keeps draining its strength!
Lin Xia's voice carried a relaxed, amused tone, as if she were directing a game.
"Keep going, Leech Seed, increase the intensity! Let it experience what it means to Life Drain!"
Ivysaur understood immediately, and the purplish-black stripes on its back shone brightly!
The seeds embedded in the roots of the Nether Ghost Tree suddenly increased their devouring speed several times over!
The purplish-black vortex spun wildly inside the roots, and the golden Divine Pattern Chains tightened even more!
The massive body of the Nether Ghost Tree began to tremble violently and uncontrollably. Large patches of grayish-white spots began to appear on its black bark, which was oozing putrid sap, as if it had withered away after being Sheer Force stripped of its life force!
Its lashing roots grew weaker and weaker, slower and slower, causing the surrounding poisonous Poison Miasma to thin and become chaotic.
It desperately tried to reclaim the parasitized roots and sever the connection, but those purplish-black seeds, like the most stubborn cancerous tissue, were already deeply Ingrain in its energy channels. Sheer Force pulling them out would only cause greater tearing and loss of more of its essence!
Despair!
An unprecedented sense of despair was clearly conveyed through its contorted limbs and chaotic Soul Power fluctuations. This ancient evil creature, which had entrenched itself in the Poison Miasma Swamp for countless years and struck fear into the hearts of countless Soul Grandmaster, now felt like a pitiful prey pinned to the spot by countless Leech Life channels, forced to watch helplessly as its life force rapidly drained away!
Driven by extreme torment and fear, the thick Poison Miasma and rotting silt at the base of the Nether Ghost Tree's massive "trunk," formed by countless intertwined roots, began to surge and converge wildly!
Under the astonished gazes of Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, the silt and Poison Miasma, mixed with the Death Energy of the Nether Ghost Tree itself, were forcibly condensed and shaped into two huge and deformed "legs" made of filth!
This "leg," supporting its massive body, actually began to clumsily and unsteadily try to move backward!
It wanted to escape!
Escape this "war fortress" that fills it with immense fear and powerlessness, escape that devilish seed that drains its life force like a blood pump, escape that terrifying combination that can stand still and be killed no matter how hard it tries!
On its twisted trunk, all the Will-O-Wisp "eyes" revealed an almost pleading, intense desire to leave this place!
This desire was so strong that it even went so far as to expend its remaining essence to create these temporary "legs"!
"Puff..."
Qian Renxue watched the enormous evil creature clumsily move around, its comical yet terrifying appearance as it tried only to escape, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle. All the tension from before turned into suppressed laughter.
Where is this the infamous Nether Ghost Tree once struck fear into the hearts of all?
He's clearly a pathetic wretch who's been bullied so badly and just wants to run away!
Bibi Dong's tense nerves completely relaxed, her purple eyes filled with amazement and a hint of complexity.
Looking at Lin Xia, who stood steadily on the Grassy Terrain with a relaxed smile, and the Ivysaur beside him that radiated four-colored light like a fortress of life, she was filled with emotion.
This little guy actually drove such an extremely dangerous Soul Beast to such a wretched and desperate situation!
This tactic... is even more sinister than an evil Soul Master!
Yet, it is also full of beauty that embodies wisdom and power.
"Trying to run?"
Lin Xia looked at the clumsy, filthy legs of the Nether Ghost Tree and a cold smile curled at the corner of her lips.
"Ivysaur, it still owes us a debt! Its roots Wrap, leave it here!"
"Dana--!!!"
With a low growl, Ivysaur's energy roots, which were deeply Ingrain in the Purifying Swamp and shimmering with red and blue light, burst forth from the path that the Nether Ghost Tree was trying to escape through, like a giant python that had been lurking for a long time!
With Ice Seal coldness and a scorching heat, like the most resilient divine metal chains, it instantly Wrap the newly formed filthy legs of the Nether Ghost Tree and the roots of its main body!
The intertwining of Ice-Fire Power eroded the filthy structure, and the powerful binding force on the roots brought the Nether Ghost Tree's "escape" to an abrupt halt!
The torment continues.
The Leech Seed continued to devour the parasites without pause.
The desperate cry of the Nether Ghost Tree echoed for Jiujiu in the depths of the Poison Miasma Swamp.
After testing his moves on the Ivysaur, Lin Xia determined the current combat strength of himself and the Ivysaur.
Although it's only level 30, it should have no problem fighting a Soul King. After confirming this, Lin Xia didn't let Ivysaur continue toying with him, but instead said directly to Ivysaur:
"Ivysaur, use Solar Beam! Finish it off in one hit!"
