Lin Fan took a deep breath and motioned with his eyes to the five slaves to follow.
Then he took the first step and stepped directly into the deep tree hole that exuded a dark atmosphere.
As soon as I stepped into the tree hole, a rich but not pungent fragrance of vegetation hit my face instantly.
This aroma flowed into the limbs and bones along the breath, followed by a slight dizziness as if traveling through space.
This feeling of time and space dislocation comes very quickly and disappears just as quickly.
When the brief trance in my mind completely receded like a tide, the scene in front of me suddenly became clear.
Where Lin Fan and the five slaves were standing was an extremely thick green vine.
The width of this vine is staggering, almost like a broad avenue paved with ancient wood.
The surface of the vines is not smooth, but is covered with deep ravines like the scales of a giant dragon.
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around.
Everywhere you look, there are thick old vines that can't be seen to the end.
These green vines vary in thickness, with a faint emerald green luster flowing on their outer skin, exuding endless vitality.
They are like ancient giant pythons coiled between heaven and earth, intertwining with each other in all directions.
Countless huge vines weave and overlap each other, forming an endless green network.
The most tingling thing is that this vast green world does not have solid soil as a basis.
This entire huge green vine network is suspended in the bottomless void so eerily and quietly.
Looking down through the gaps between the intertwined vines, one can only see the heart-stopping endless darkness, as if there is an abyss capable of swallowing everything hidden underneath.
Lin Fan retracted his downward gaze and raised his head to look above the space.
In the sky of this vine world, a layer of dreamlike blue mist floats all year round.
This psychedelic mist also carries the refreshing fragrance of vegetation, slowly flowing among the vines with the breeze.
However, this seemingly beautiful and peaceful environment actually brings a great sense of depression to people.
Those seemingly gentle psychedelic mist are actually like a thick invisible barrier.
It suppresses Spiritual Force's perception range extremely severely. Spiritual Force unfolding here is like falling into a deep quagmire, and every inch of extension requires a lot of energy.
"It seems that this place is not very friendly to mentalists."
At this time, Phantom Ghost, who was standing next to Lin Fan, reported respectfully,
"Master, the mist here has a hallucinogenic effect on the soul. Although the intensity is not high, staying in it for a long time can easily make people mentally exhausted."
"Furthermore, the detection range of my telekinesis has been greatly compressed by this layer of fog. Currently, it can barely cover a few kilometers around me."
The extremely burly Xuansheng Race warrior Iron Rampart stepped hard on the thick vines that were as hard as iron.
He added the situation here angrily.
"Not only that, Master, there is something strange in the abyss under this vine net, and the gravity is ridiculously strong."
"Once it steps into the air and falls, Star Level's ability to fly in the air will be greatly suppressed, and it is very likely that it will be pulled directly to the bottom of the abyss."
Lin Fan walked slowly to the edge of the vines, lowered his head and glanced down.
Deep and dark, like a huge mouth capable of swallowing up all light and life.
At this moment, Dark Edge, who was like a shadow without any sense of existence, lurking in the blind corner of the vines, suddenly spoke in a low voice with an extremely hoarse voice.
"Master, there are extremely fresh claw scratches and weak venom residue at the intersection of several old vines five hundred meters ahead on the left."
"Judging from the smell and traces, it should be left by Long-tailed Tree Lizard, one of our mission targets."
Hearing this, Qingwan Race warrior Blood Blade, who had been maintaining a vigilant posture next to him, looked sharply.
He raised the War Blade in his hand, and there was a fierce killing aura all over his body.
"Master, do you want me to go over and force those beasts out?"
"No rush."
Lin Fan waved his hand, and his eyes slowly swept through the huge vine maze shrouded in mist.
"I don't know how many people are participating in the assessment this time. Here, the most dangerous thing is often not Long-tailed Tree Lizard, but those competitors who may stab you in the back at any time."
Lin Fan A sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth, his eyes were deep.
"Collecting ten cans of Rainbow Resin and three severed tails of Long-tailed Tree Lizard is just our secondary mission this time."
"The main purpose of our visit this time is to kill people."
He turned to look at the four slaves behind him and gave the order in an orderly manner.
"Phantom Ghost, you are responsible for keeping your mind alert at all times and shielding our breath."
"Dark Edge, use your racial talents and sneak ahead to explore the path."
"Iron Rampart and Blood Blade, guard the two wings."
Lin Fan flipped his hand, Calamity took it instantly, and Sky Splitter also attached itself to his back.
"Let's not rush to find the mission items. Let's go find those who participated in the assessment first."
"As you command, Master!"
Under the instructions of Lin Fan, the entire team quickly turned into a precision-operated killing machine.
Phantom Ghost Close your eyes.
An invisible and soft Spiritual Force instantly rippled around him.
This telepathy did not expand outward to detect the enemy, but extremely cleverly formed a twisted film of light and shadow around the five members of the team.
Under the cover of this film, their breathing, Origin Force fluctuations, and even the sound of footsteps stepping on the vines were perfectly shielded and erased.
Dark Edge's originally very thin body blended directly into the thick shadows under the vines like a drop of ink, maximizing the assassin's talent as Queying Race.
Even a strong man at the ninth level of Star Level would never be able to catch his sneaking trajectory with the naked eye without taking precautions in advance.
Iron Rampart and Blood Blade followed Lin Fan on the left and right.
The group of people were like ghosts, moving quickly and silently through this endless green web.
After about half an hour of sneaking among the intricate vines.
Dark Edge, who was exploring the road ahead, suddenly emerged half-body from the shadow of an extremely thick withered vine.
He did not speak, but made a secret gesture, and Phantom Ghost immediately synchronized with Spiritual Force and Lin Fan.
There is a goal ahead.
And there's more than one.
Lin Fan's mouth curved into a cold arc.
He waved his hand gently, signaling everyone to slow down, and quietly approached with the help of the huge ravine formed by the vines.
