Yi Yang had quick eyes and quick hands. He grabbed her shoulders and used his five fingers to force her back.
At the same time, True Qi was running inside her body, blocking Lu Qinglan's voice with a special trembling frequency, preventing her exclamation from being heard.
"Don't move!" Yi Yang shouted in a low voice, his tone unprecedentedly harsh.
Lu Qinglan struggled for a moment, but found that Yi Yang's hands were like iron pliers and he couldn't break free at all.
Her eyes were red and she lowered her voice and said urgently, "That's my grandpa! You saw it! He's right there!"
"I know." Yi Yang stared into her eyes and said word by word, "But if you rush over now, you will only kill him and yourself."
Lu Qinglan was shocked all over.
"It's weird." Yi Yang let go of his hand and looked at the valley again, "Look carefully, this valley is too quiet."
"There isn't even a bug within a thousand feet."
"The remains of Demon Beast on the ground were all drained of their essence and blood and died."
"Your grandfather's position is too conspicuous. He leans against the tree so arrogantly, like a deliberately placed bait."
Lu Qinglan Hearing this, he forced himself to calm down and looked at the valley carefully.
The more I looked at it, the more I felt something was wrong.
It's really too quiet.
Ten Thousand Demon Mountains Deep down, no matter how dangerous the place is, there should still be sounds of insects and beasts roaring.
But this valley was as quiet as a dead zone.
"Then... what should we do?" Lu Qinglan bit his lower lip, digging his nails into his palms, bleeding.
Yi Yang did not answer immediately. He ran "Grand Void Breath-Hiding Art" and pressed his and Lu Qinglan's aura to the extreme. His whole body seemed to have merged into the ancient tree behind him.
Illusion-Breaking Divine Sense went out again. This time, he no longer glanced hastily, but carefully explored inch by inch.
From the fallen leaves on the ground, to the texture of the tree trunks, to the body of Lu Zui.
When Divine Sense landed on Lu Zui, Yi Yang's brows tightened.
He saw it.
Lu Zui's right arm, left leg, and back are each wrapped with a dark purple vine as thin as a hair. The vine almost blends in with the color of Lu Zui's clothes and cannot be noticed by the naked eye.
The surface of the vine is covered with fine barbs. The barbs are like bee needles. They are hollow and pierce into Lu Zui's skin, and are slowly squirming.
Vampire.
Absorb the blood and vitality of Lu Zui.
Yi Yang followed the vines and found that they were all connected to the huge Ironwood.
No, it should be said that it is connected to the Demon Beast body on Ironwood.
"Spirit-Devouring Blood Vine..." Yi Yang whispered in his heart. He had seen records about this kind of Demon Beast in the Demon Beast Ancient Book anecdotes stored in Crossing Peak Stronghold.
Spirit-Devouring Blood Vine, the rarest and most ferocious species of plants Demon Beast.
They feed on the essence and blood of living creatures and grow very slowly, but once they grow up, their strength is extremely terrifying.
The Spirit-Devouring Blood Vine in front of me, judging from the size and aura, is at least at the peak of the Profound Connection Fourth Realm and "Returning to the Profound Realm".
Moreover, it is impacting the fifth realm "Profound Transformation Realm".
The Wood Spirit Soul Fruit at the top of the tree crown was the key to its breakthrough. Yi Yang's brain was spinning rapidly, connecting all the clues together to guess the truth of the matter.
Spirit-Devouring Blood Vine needs a lot of vitality to ripen Wood Spirit Soul Fruit. The ordinary Demon Beast doesn't have enough flesh and blood, so it focuses on Lu Zui, the strong human race of the Profound Transformation Realm.
Lu Zui was hunted here, mistakenly thinking that this quiet place could be a hiding place, and ended up stepping into Vine King's trap.
Vine King did not kill him immediately, but used the blood vine to slowly absorb his energy and blood, which could not only accelerate the maturity of Wood Spirit Soul Fruit, but also prevent the quality of the fruit from declining due to the sudden depletion of "nutrients".
As for that fruity aroma floating in the air...
Yi Yang raised his head and glanced at the sky.
That's bait.
Vine King deliberately releases a fruity aroma, attracting the surrounding Demon Beast to fight for it. When Wood Spirit Soul Fruit is fully mature, a fierce battle will inevitably occur.
At that time, whether it is Demon Beast who comes to grab the fruit or Demon Beast who died in the melee, they will all become nutrients for Vine King.
Kill two birds with one stone.
"What a vicious plan." Yi Yang sneered in his heart. He took back Divine Sense and looked at Lu Qinglan beside him.
Lu Qinglan was staring at him nervously, waiting for his judgment.
"Your grandfather is still alive." Yi Yang said, "But the situation is not good. He is trapped by a Demon Beast called 'Spirit-Devouring Blood Vine', which is sucking his blood."
Lu Qinglan turned pale.
"Then..."
"Don't panic." Yi Yang raised his hand to interrupt her, "I have a way to save him, but it will take time and your cooperation."
"Now, follow me."
Yi Yang said, and moved Lu Qinglan quietly to the more hidden west side of the valley, where there was a depression in the rock wall covered with hanging vines and moss, forming a natural shelter.
The two of them hid inside, and Yi Yang activated "Grand Void Breath-Hiding Art" again, pressing the breath to the extreme.
"Listen." Yi Yang lowered his voice, "I am going to try to wake up your grandpa now, but the movement must not be too loud, otherwise Vine King will be alarmed."
"Stay here and don't move. No matter what happens, don't make a sound."
Lu Qinglan bit his lower lip and nodded vigorously.
Yi Yang took a deep breath, and the golden light in the depths of his eyes lit up again. In Sea of Consciousness, the one-foot-five-foot-tall Three-Eyed Golden Giant Ape slowly opened his eyebrows and raised his eyes.
Illusion-Breaking Divine Sense of Perfection condensed into a very thin thread, like an invisible silver needle, silently piercing Lu Zui's eyebrows.
Divine Sense penetrates flesh, penetrates bones, and drills directly into Sea of Consciousness of Lu Zui.
Lu Zui's Sea of Consciousness was in chaos, as if shrouded in thick fog.
That is the toxin injected by Spirit-Devouring Blood Vine, which is corroding his Divine Platform.
Yi Yang did not hesitate, Golden Giant Ape transformed into Divine Sense suddenly looked up to the sky and roared in the center of Sea of Consciousness.
A silent roar exploded in Sea of Consciousness, like thunder.
The chaotic mist was dispersed, and Lu Zui's sleeping Divine Platform trembled violently.
In reality.
Lu Zui, who was leaning against the roots of a tree, suddenly opened his eyes.
The originally cloudy gray-brown eyes suddenly lit up with a bright light.
He subconsciously wanted to fight back violently, and the remaining Profound Transformation Realm True Qi in his body surged crazily.
"Senior Lu, don't move!"
A sound exploded directly in his Sea of Consciousness.
"This is junior Yi Yang, entrusted by Miss Sun Lu to come to our rescue!"
Lu Zui made a move.
He forced down the True Qi that was surging in his body, and his gray-brown eyes quickly scanned the surroundings.
Soon, his eyes fell on the depression in the rock wall on the west side of the valley.
In the shadows of vines and moss, two vague figures loomed.
One of them is the granddaughter he misses day and night.
Lu Zui's eyes turned red instantly, but then, his face changed drastically.
"Nonsense!" Lu Zui said angrily to the two of them via Divine Sense, "How dare you break in! Leave quickly! Leave immediately!"
In the depression of the rock wall, Yi Yang responded expressionlessly, "Senior, don't be anxious. Since I dare to come, I'm somewhat sure."
"Confirmed?" Lu Zui laughed angrily, "Did you know that Vine King is already at the peak of Guiyu Realm and may break through Profound Transformation at any time!"
"What's even worse is..."
He paused and said in a heavy voice, "Five days later, when Wood Spirit Soul Fruit is completely mature, there will be at least seven or eight Profound Mystery, Third Realm, Fourth Realm and Great Demon among the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains gathered here to compete for the fruits!"
"When the time comes, this place will become a Shura field. Warriors below Profound Transformation Realm will die if they enter!"
Yi Yang and Lu Qinglan both changed color.
Seven or eight heads Great Demon?
Lu Qinglan The hand holding the sword is shaking.
A Profound Mystery Third Realm and a Demon Beast are enough to sweep away all warriors below True Astral Realm.
Seven or eight heads appear together, what is the concept?
Yi Yang forced himself to calm down, and continued to ask via voice transmission, "Senior, how did you get trapped here?"
Lu Zui sighed and briefly explained what happened.
He was chased deep into the depths of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains by the Shaman Kingdom and two Profound Connection Perfection, and was seriously injured. He was also shot through the chest by Shang Yu's arrow, and his energy and blood were severely damaged.
When he fled to this valley, he mistakenly thought that this quiet place would be a good place to hide and heal.
As a result, as soon as I sat down to adjust my breath, I fell into the trap of Vine King.
Those hair-thin blood vines wrapped around his body silently, and by the time he noticed it, it was already too late.
The toxin injected from the blood vine corroded Divine Platform, causing him to gradually lose his ability to resist and eventually fell into a coma.
"Although I have been trapped these past few days, Divine Sense has not been lost." Lu Zui said solemnly, "I can feel that there are many Great Demon lurking around, waiting for Wood Spirit Soul Fruit to mature."
"At that time, a brutal fight will break out. Neither of you Profound Connection Realm can make it. If you stay here, you will die!"
"Let's go!"
In the depression of the rock wall, Lu Qinglan's eyes were red, and the knuckles holding the sword hilt were white.
Yi Yang did not move.
He stared at Lu Zui in the distance, then looked up at the red Wood Spirit Soul Fruit at the top of the tree crown, his eyes gradually becoming firmer.
The "Wood True Yang Scripture" practiced by Yi Yang has just stepped into the Profound Connection Second Realm Manifestation. If you want to completely solidify the young Dharma Body embryo in the Qi Sea, step into the Third Realm Dharma Body, practicing step by step requires too many resources and not enough time.
After learning about the upcoming "Dragon Transformation Ritual" before, he secretly made up his mind to gain the strength to protect himself in this storm. Yi Yang vaguely realized that Shang Yu was definitely not simple, and it was very likely that he would be involved.
The Wood Spirit Soul Fruit that appears now uses the cultivation of the Returning to the Profound Realm Great Demon. It is simply a great medicine for breaking through the realm, tailor-made for him!
After missing this opportunity, if he breaks through to the Dharma Body Realm, he will have to practice hard, which will take a lot of time. But what Yi Yang lacks most now is time. As long as he breaks through the Dharma Body Realm, and then Divine Sense breaks through to the Third Realm, he will have the ability to protect himself in the chaos.
"Senior." Yi Yang spoke slowly, "Junior came here and promised to save you. Miss Lu has already paid the reward with 'Azure Cloud Flowing Light Armor', so she will definitely not give up on you."
"But you have now been targeted as prey by King Teng. If I want to save you, I must alert this powerful Returning to the Profound Realm Demon Beast."
Lu Zui was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Lu Qinglan actually paid such a big price.
"And that Wood Spirit Soul Fruit will be of great help to the juniors to break through the Dharma Body Realm." Yi Yang said word by word, "If you miss this opportunity, I don't know when I will encounter such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures again."
"So..."
He paused for a moment, and his voice was calm but filled with unquestionable determination, "There will be a battle between us and that Demon Beast. It is impossible to leave. Even if I agree, Miss Lu will not agree."
Lu Zui opened his eyes wide and couldn't believe what he heard.
"Are you crazy?!" he said angrily, "Profound Connection Second Realm is not even cannon fodder in the melee of monsters!"
"That fruit is indeed precious, but you have to die to get it!"
"Are you going to risk Qinglan's life in order to save me? You are so stupid."
Yi Yang did not refute, but calmly showed his true cultivation. The green Profound Mystery True Qi circulated slowly in his body. Although the aura was only in the Profound Awakening realm, its solidity and thickness were far beyond ordinary Manifestation Realm.
What's even more terrible is that the vague Sha Qi and murderous intention on Yi Yang's body made Lu Zui, an old man who was used to seeing life and death, feel a chill in his heart.
"Senior, have you ever heard..." Yi Yang stared at Lu Zui and said slowly, "If someone is at the Returning to the Profound Realm, they can kill the Dharma Body Realm monster?"
"Three days ago, I killed White Lotus Society's monster. They wanted to sacrifice you to summon White Lotus Society, a statue of Evil God. We just happened to bump into it, and now you are dead here."
"Besides, senior is also a strong person at Fifth Realm of Profound Mystery. With your help, we may not have no chance."
Lu Zui was shocked, and he stared at Yi Yang with his gray-brown eyes for three full breaths.
Finally, he sighed and was convinced. Who would give up if he had a chance to survive?
"You kid..." Lu Zui smiled bitterly, "You have the same virtue as I did when you were young, and you can't even pull back nine cows if you do something right."
"That's all, since you insist on staying, I can't stop you."
"But there is one condition." Lu Zui looked at Lu Qinglan in the depression of the rock wall, "Let Qinglan go first, she staying here will only distract you and me."
Lu Qinglan raised his head suddenly, shaking his head with red eyes.
"I won't leave," she said stubbornly, "Wherever grandpa is, I will be there."
"Qinglan!" Lu Zui's voice sank.
"Grandpa." Lu Qinglan took a deep breath and tried hard to keep his voice from trembling, "You have taught me since I was a child that a warrior should never retreat when facing difficulties. Besides, you are the only relative in our lineage."
"Now that you are in danger, let me escape alone. Do you think I can do it?"
Lu Zui opened his mouth, which eventually turned into a helpless sigh.
Yi Yang looked at the grandfather and grandson without interrupting.
After a moment of silence, he said, "Since Miss Lu insists on staying, then she will stay."
"But for the next five days, you must follow my arrangements."
Lu Zui and Lu Qinglan both looked at him.
"First of all, we must find a way to help our seniors regain some of their strength." Yi Yang took out three Profound Essence Pill from Storage Ring, "This is Profound Connection Realm Pills, which can stabilize the blood and suppress toxins."
"Secondly, we must find out the details of Vine King and find its weaknesses."
"Finally..." Yi Yang looked up at Wood Spirit Soul Fruit at the top of the tree canopy, "When the group of demons and Vine King are both injured, take advantage of the chaos to seize Wood Spirit Soul Fruit."
The words just fell.
Roar--!
A low roar rolled over from the depths of the dense forest on the west side of the valley without warning, causing the leaves of several big trees at the entrance of the valley to tremble.
Behind Rock, Yi Yang suddenly turned his head to look to the west. The Divine Sense released was instantly touched by a violent and smelly Demon Qi. His face darkened and he held down Lu Qinglan's shoulders.
No, there was a Profound Mystery Third Realm beast who couldn't bear his temper and came in early!
