Chapter 14 A Figure in the Mist
"Here you go, make good use of it and strive to reach Planetary Rank 9 as soon as possible, so that your master can walk sideways on Earth!" Lin Yi said.
The golden tendrils of the Life-Eating Vine gently brushed against Lin Yi's body, as if to say, "Yes, Master!"
"That day is not far off!"
Lin Yi smiled and reached out to pat the upright vines.
"Dig 100 kilometers underground."
Upon receiving Lin Yi's command, the golden tendrils of the Life-Eating Vine tightened, coiling around Lin Yi like a golden serpent, its tip suddenly burrowing into the ground.
With a loud bang, dust billowed up from the ground, and Lin Yi and the Life-Eating Vine disappeared.
Amidst the swirling mist, only the remains of nine willow trees remained.
A moment later, three figures emerged from the mist: one man and two women.
"They're really cautious, not even giving chase." A man dressed in black combat gear with a scar on his face looked at the filled-in crater at his feet with a hint of regret.
"Yueye, thanks to you this time, we've made such a great profit." A voluptuous woman stood next to the man, smiling broadly as she patted Yueya's shapely buttocks.
The sudden attack on her sensitive area made Sayya blush slightly, and she said coquettishly to Vinina, "Cousin~!"
As two of the nine core families of the HR Alliance, the Sulchilai family and the Bolenas family have a good relationship, especially Sayuea's mother, who comes from the Bolenas family. Sayuea and Vinina have a very good relationship.
The three were actually Li Yao and his wife, known as the vultures, and Sayya.
"We're so lucky. We were planning to ask my cousin to take care of the Blood Fox Squad, but we ended up running into this strange guy and have such a great unexpected gain."
Sayueya received news that the Blood Fox Squad had arrived in Australia. Eager for revenge, she invited Vinina and her companion to join her.
They happened to run into Lin Yi, whose whereabouts were peculiar. Other martial artists who came to the Australian continent carefully avoided danger and hunted monsters, but Lin Yi, who was only a junior general, actually crossed mountains and valleys.
Having spent years training in the wilderness, the three immediately realized that Lin Yi was likely searching for some treasure, which is why they followed him.
Vinina nodded, then glanced seductively at the man beside her.
"Yao, this thousand-year-old plant spirit is a treasure that money can't buy. I plan to give it to Wei'er. We'll chip in and compensate Yueya with a portion of dragon blood."
Li Yao nodded. The spirit of a thousand-year-old plant is a treasure that money can hardly buy. Although dragon blood is extremely precious, it still has a price. Although Sha Yueya contributed almost nothing to the spirit of the plant that the three of them obtained as a team, she should still be counted as a share.
Sayueya was in a very good mood and said in a clear voice, "Thank you, cousin. Thank you, cousin-in-law."
It's no wonder she was happy. Dragon blood is worth nearly 100 billion. After taking it, although it can't activate cells like the spirits of plants, it can still greatly improve physical fitness. After using it, it's almost a certainty that she, as a high-level warrior, will break through to the God of War level.
Li Yao remained expressionless, suppressing his excitement, and said in a deep voice.
"We can't linger here. While this mysterious expert is using the spirits of plants, let's search around and see if there are any other places with the spirits of plants."
"It doesn't make sense that this is the only place on this island where the spirits of plants and trees exist."
With two War Gods approaching each other, and Li Yao also possessing the Black God Set, the trio's strength, while not invincible, certainly didn't require excessive caution.
……
In the dark depths of the earth, the Life-Eating Vine, with its immense strength, forcefully carved through a rock stratum and entered a rocky cave.
Within the void, the end of the golden vine transformed into a black hole, eagerly swallowing the ten-thousand-year-old willow heart.
"you……"
Lin Yi was surprised and wanted to speak, but he was about to make the Life-Eating Vine spit it out.
Then he realized that the Life-Eating Vine was a plant life form at the peak of the King level. The hard crystalline outer shell of the plant spirit was deadly to human flesh and blood, but it should have no effect on the Life-Eating Vine, so he stopped arguing.
After the Life-Eating Vine swallowed the heartwood of the ten-thousand-year-old willow, the golden vine emitted streaks of emerald green light. Like a drunken spirit snake, the tough golden vine slumped limply on the ground.
It seems to be fully absorbing the energy from the heartwood of the ancient willow.
The heartwood of a thousand-year-old willow tree can enhance human cell activity and improve physical fitness, with an upper limit of reaching the level of a high-level war god.
The heartwood of a ten-thousand-year-old willow is more than ten times more potent than that of a thousand-year-old one; such miraculous properties are not surprising.
In places unseen by the naked eye, the plant cell structure of the phlegmon is slowly undergoing a transformation, and the vine, which is normally about a foot thick, is growing thicker at a speed visible to the naked eye.
A brief observation suggests that the changes in the phytophagous vine will take some time.
Lin Yi touched his spatial ring, and the next second a jade-green crystal appeared in his palm.
"The outer crystalline shell of the thousand-year-old willow heart is incredibly tough, but the inner liquid is the essence. You can simply swallow the essence of the inner liquid."
Lin Yi recalled the information from the forum, and with a swing of his divine sword, he easily shattered the crystal.
call!
Glug glug~~~~~ The essence liquid inside slowly flowed out from the crystal. Lin Yi opened his mouth and caught this vibrant green liquid.
Whoosh! Under the control of his mental power, the breathtaking essence of the thousand-year-old willow heart flew directly into Lin Yi's mouth. Although the entire crystal was the size of an egg, the essence inside was probably only enough for a small wine cup.
Swallow it in one gulp, and these essences flow into the body along the esophagus. Instantly, a cool and comfortable feeling spreads throughout the body, even making one's soul tremble.
Feels so good!
Lin Yi lay motionless on the golden vines, clearly sensing the subtle changes in his body...
"That post wasn't a lie. Absorbing the spirit of plants and trees is not only not as painful as consuming dragon blood, but it's actually refreshingly cool."
Improving one's strength without experiencing pain is perfect for Lin Yi, who is afraid of pain.
"So refreshing."
"I felt my whole body, bones, skin and flesh were trembling."
Lin Yi looked down and could see with the naked eye that his skin was vibrating very rapidly with a small amplitude. During this vibration, wisps of grayish-black substance seeped out from the skin's pores.
This feeling is wonderful...
Feeling cool all over!
At the same time, it felt as if the skin and flesh of my whole body had been separated from my bones and I had lost control. I could only vaguely feel the continuous tremors, like a massage.
Within Lin Yi's body, the essence contained in the thousand-year-old willow heartwood, with its surging, boundless vitality, almost instantly permeated every part of his body. This vital energy caused astonishing changes in the cells of Lin Yi's bones, bones, and muscles.
It's like a sapling growing into a towering tree.
At this moment, countless cells in Lin Yi's body were undergoing astonishing changes. His genes had already been improved by the evolution potion, and now they were developing and perfecting at an even faster pace, shedding useless genes and undergoing another perfect integration. This speed was extremely rapid, and it seemed that Lin Yi's genes had absorbed a trace of the thousand-year-old willow heartwood, causing special changes in his genes.
Cell activity is increasing rapidly.
Under this vitality, Lin Yi's entire body was rapidly improving.
