Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 898 Attributes conflict with each other

After a night of rest, Ye Xuan and Huo Miao continued on their adventure and treasure hunt. Now that they no longer had to worry about hidden enemies, they both felt a lot more relaxed. However, they did not relax at all, because the next section of the journey would only be more dangerous than before and would not allow for any negligence.

Ye Xuan did not tell Huo Miao about the sword embryo and the God-Eating Vine because there was no point in telling him. The route he chose was in the direction of the treasure. Huo Miao did not know about this because there was no related record in the records of Xuanyun Sect. Huo Miao did not think too much about it. He just followed Ye Xuan without any objection.

Moreover, as the monsters and poisonous vines encountered along the way became more and more powerful, Huo Miao had fewer opportunities to "practice". It was basically Ye Xuan who dealt with them. In the end, he could only watch from the side.

Although the target was the Sword Embryo and the God-Eating Vine, Ye Xuan was not too anxious. Whenever he encountered any treasures or spiritual materials along the way, he would take some time to obtain them before leaving. Sometimes when he found some suspected clues, he would take a detour, but it was often in vain.

After another three days, the two were only a dozen miles away from the end of the back valley. Looking up, the towering black mountain walls seemed to have no end, extending to the left and right, towering into the clouds, like a sky-covering barrier blocking the way ahead, giving people a sense of insurmountable grandeur.

"Sixth brother, the situation seems a little strange..."

The two of them moved forward cautiously. Huo Miao looked around and finally couldn't help but speak.

Ye Xuan turned his head slightly to look at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Huo Miao said: "Since half a day ago, we seem to have not encountered any monsters. All we encountered were poison vines."

Ye Xuan smiled faintly and nodded, "Yes, that's right. From here to the end of the back valley, there will basically be no monsters. There will only be poison vines, and the number of poison vines will increase, and their strength will become stronger and stronger."

Seeing that he seemed to have known it for a long time, Huo Miao was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized: "Sixth brother, you knew it a long time ago? It was Ge Zhanxiong..."

Ye Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, I got a jade scroll from Ge Zhanxiong that records the situation in Poison Ivy Valley. It is more detailed than the one from Xuanyun Sect, and it talks about the situation here."

"I see..." Huo Miao nodded and asked, "So what should we do next?"

Ye Xuan raised his hand and pointed to the front right, saying, "Let's go over there. The records of the Yinsha Sect say that there is a third-grade holy medicine over there. Let's go and see if it's still there. However, there are poison vines equivalent to the seventh level of the holy realm guarding it, so we have to be careful."

The two walked in that direction for a while. The ground beneath their feet became softer and softer, and they came to a swamp. The two simply flew into the air, slowly flying forward while searching for spiritual materials.

"Be careful!!"

Suddenly, Ye Xuan's face changed slightly. While giving a reminder, he waved his hand and released a gentle holy force to push Huo Miao away. At the same time, he flipped his right hand, and a holy sword appeared instantly, and chopped down with force.

As Ye Xuan made these moves, he heard a sharp "whoosh" sound in the swamp below, and a black shadow broke out of the ground without warning, and coiled towards the two people in the air like a spirit snake.

With Ye Xuan's push, Huo Miao retreated from the danger zone in time, and Ye Xuan swung the holy sword, hitting the tip of the black shadow that was rolling in.

"Swish!" With a light sound, the tip of the snake's tail that was several feet long was cut off by a sword, and the dark green liquid splashed out and shot towards Ye Xuan like a sharp thorn.

Ye Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and with a wave of holy power, he built an invisible defense in front of him. The venom hit the holy power defense with a sizzling sound and emitted an unpleasant pungent smell. Ye Xuan frowned slightly and quickly retreated.

"It's even more toxic than the poison vines I encountered before. At this level, even a Great Saint would be in trouble..."

Ye Xuan was thinking quickly in his mind, and at the same time, his mind moved. Blue star fire flashed around him, and the Heavenly Star True Flame was called out. With a wave of his hand, it turned into a wave of fire and rolled towards the poisonous vines in front of him.

Although it was a poison vine from the seventh level of the Holy Realm, Ye Xuan was not too panicked, because for others this kind of hidden, extremely tough, and highly toxic poison vine might be difficult to deal with, but for him it was no more difficult than dealing with a warrior from the fifth level of the Holy Realm, because he could effectively sense the coming of danger with his spiritual power and the sensitive perception of danger in the Holy Realm. For example, just now, although this poison vine had no signs before attacking, Ye Xuan had already sensed it and reacted the moment it moved. The most important thing was the natural restraint. Spiritual fire had a natural restraining effect on foreign objects like poison vines. In the face of the Heavenly Star True Flame, the poison vine could basically not pose a threat to Ye Xuan.

What's more, Ye Xuan also has the Shura Demon Flame.

Although these poison vines may give people the illusion that they are spiritual, they cannot really think after all. Moreover, no matter how flexible these things that have taken root in the ground are, they only have a fixed range of activities. They cannot hide at all when covered by a large area of ​​opposing flames.

Sure enough, in just a few breaths, the poisonous vine that seemed to sense the threat of the Heavenly Star True Flame and was desperately twisting and dodging was wrapped by the Heavenly Star True Flame. Ye Xuan smiled faintly, expecting that he would be able to get rid of this poisonous vine soon.

But this time, something unexpected happened...

“Puff, puff, puff…” At the moment when the poison vine was enveloped by the Heavenly Star True Flame, countless small holes suddenly shrank on it, and then a dark green poisonous mist spurted out. The poisonous mist condensed and did not disperse, and actually formed a layer of defense like armor. What was even more incredible was that this layer of poisonous mist barrier actually… blocked the Heavenly Star True Flame!!
"Swoosh!!" While the poisonous mist was sprayed out to block the Heavenly Star True Flame, the poisonous vine swung violently, and its speed was even faster than before. In an instant, it broke out of the coverage of the strange fire and rolled in front of Ye Xuan!

"What!" Ye Xuan was shocked. This was a situation he had not expected at all. Although he was shocked, he was not panicked. In the moment before the poisonous vines rolled over, his figure blurred and he did not make any movement. But when the poisonous vines rolled over, it only crushed an afterimage.

After using space to instantly dodge an attack, Ye Xuan immediately summoned the Heavenly Star True Flame to defend himself. At the same time, his figure flashed to avoid the pursuit of the poisonous vine. The poisonous vine had only emerged from the ground for a few hundred feet before, but now it has stretched out for more than a thousand feet. It is really unknown how long it is. When it hit Ye Xuan's fourth afterimage, the Heavenly Star True Flame also roared back to Ye Xuan, ready to roast the poisonous vine again.

But at this moment, Ye Xuan's expression suddenly changed again, as if he felt something. He suddenly turned his head and looked not far to the right, and then his eyes darkened.

Over there, was where Huo Miao was, and at this moment, Ye Xuan saw a poisonous vine suddenly break out of the ground and roll towards Huo Miao above! !
