Plants vs. Cultivation.

Chapter 156 Water Veins Destroyed
General Jinzhao's revenge came faster than Gu Mo had imagined. On the very next day after Gu Mo received the information from Master Xuanshui, he felt a powerful demonic aura rolling in from afar.

Such a huge momentum instantly attracted the attention of other big monsters in the nearby sea. Every move of a top monster like General Jinzhao would attract the attention of other big monsters.

After all, this is a top-level monster that can change the situation of an area of ​​the sea.

Gu Mo stared at the demonic cloud in the distance with a calm expression. Not to mention that he already knew that General Jinzhao would come, even if he didn't know, Gu Mo would not be afraid of the other party. It would be a positional battle. Unless Yuanying Zhenjun or a 4th-level demon king came, Gu Mo would not be afraid.

As the evil cloud got closer, Gu Mo also saw a big man with a pair of golden claws walking on the sea, and then walked onto the island beach.

"Human monks..."

Having accumulated momentum along the way, General Jinzhao was just about to speak to intimidate the human Jindan. The other party was able to kill his men, which showed that he still had some strength. General Jinzhao would not underestimate the enemy.

"Boom!"

But before General Jin Zhe could finish his words, a force of annihilation instantly engulfed him. Since he knew that the enemy was coming and from which direction the enemy would come, Gu Mo naturally buried potato mines along the way, and they were directly level 3 potato mines.

Be prepared to catch the other party off guard.

"Human, you are seeking death!"

General Jinzhao's furious roar blew away the smoke and dust stirred up by the explosion, and then a huge crab was revealed, and the golden claws were still so conspicuous, but at this moment one of the crab's legs seemed to be missing a section.

It was destroyed by the annihilation power of the 3rd-level potato mine, which means that the 3rd-level potato mine is completely capable of hurting General Golden Claw who is covered with shells.

This sudden attack destroyed all the momentum that General Jinzhao had accumulated along the way. At this moment, General Jinzhao could only rush towards the center of the island in a rage.

Of course, despite his furious appearance, General Jinzhao was actually very solemn inside. The shell that he was so proud of was actually broken. Although this was only the shell on the leg and not the hardest part of the body, it still made General Jinzhao feel full of fear.

General Jinclaw's shell is strong, but once the shell is broken, there is no defense inside him. This is determined by his racial characteristics.

"Boom!"

General Jinzhao had just taken a few steps forward when another violent explosion occurred. It turned out that there was more than one potato mine buried in the beach.

However, this explosion did not cause any harm to General Jinzhao, because General Jinzhao used his golden claws to block the power of the explosion.

"These pliers are a bit troublesome."

Gu Mo looked at General Jinzhao's golden claws. The strength of the claws was a bit beyond expectations. He didn't know what opportunity the big crab had obtained. However, as long as he could kill the big crab, the opportunity would be his.

After General Jinzhao entered the island, Gu Mo directly ordered the level 3 pea shooter to launch an attack, and this time Gu Mo even used the torch stump.

Because the attack of the inferior level 3 pea shooter cannot break the shell defense of General Golden Claw, only the flaming peas ignited by the torch stump can cause damage to it.

"what!"

As soon as General Jinzhao entered the central lake area of ​​the island, he encountered more than a dozen powerful level 3 attacks. He was immediately shocked. The methods of this human monk were stronger than he had imagined.

However, these green energy attacks did not pose much threat to him. Although the fireballs were incredibly powerful, they were not a big problem. After General Jin Zha suffered a loss once, he blocked all the subsequent fireballs with his golden claws.

Although the human monk cunningly used ordinary fireball talismans to deceive him, General Jinzhao didn't care. As long as he got close to him, the human monk would surely die.

General Jinzhao's combat strength is all in close combat. He is not good at long-range attacks. At most, he knows a few water spells. In a battle of this level, he naturally will not cast such small spells.

"Crash!"

Soon, General Jinzhao rushed into the lake under the attack and quickly approached the large formation in the lake.

At this moment, Shi Yuwei, who was in the formation, felt the breath of the top-level demon at close range, making her whole body tremble.

But Shi Yuwei gritted her teeth and didn't let herself scream out.

"what!"

Until a giant golden claw fell, Shi Yuwei could no longer suppress the uneasiness in her heart and cried out in surprise.

"boom!"

The golden giant claw dropped by General Jinzhao broke the outermost breath-concealing formation, and then the giant claw fell on the nut formation. In an instant, the light curtain of the nut formation fluctuated violently, and then the fluctuation was instantly transmitted to each nut, causing cracks to appear on those nuts.

But with sufficient spiritual power, the cracks on the nuts are repairing quickly.

Moreover, taking advantage of the gap between General Golden Claws' attacks, the Pea Shooter and Torch Stump launched a counterattack again, which forced General Golden Claws to resist and prevented him from attacking continuously.

As long as the nuts are given time to recover, General Jinclaw will never be able to break the nut formation, unless the opponent is willing to risk getting injured and launch a strong attack.

But even so, the nut array with three level 3 nuts as the core can withstand the attack of a level 3 peak monster for a long time.

At this time, General Jinzhao must completely give up defense and attack with all his strength. If he dares to do so, Gu Mo will teach him how to cook various crab dishes, such as steamed crabs and fried crabs.

"what happened?"

Seeing that his attack hit the formation but was unable to break it, General Jinzhao was shocked. He had fought with human monks many times and of course had encountered formations, but he could destroy those formations with just one strike.

After all, although the formation is mysterious, the formation stones are very fragile. As long as an attack of sufficient intensity is unleashed in a short period of time, even if the formation cannot be broken, as long as the formation stones can be destroyed, it is equivalent to breaking the formation.

This is almost a universal method used by monsters to deal with the formations of human cultivators. Although it may not always be effective, it is simple and crude, and most formations can be dealt with in this way as long as they are not the top formations.

But the defensive formation in front of him didn't look like a top-notch formation, and all the power of his attacks was borne by those formation stones. But why was the formation not damaged at all?

General Jinzhao, who was confused, prepared to try again. To do this, he needed to withstand the attacks shot out from the formation, especially the fireball attack, which posed a great threat to him.

As the outermost breath-concealing formation was broken, General Jinzhao also felt more than a dozen level 3 auras in the formation's mist. He was not surprised by this, as the attack just now had proved that there was a level 3 existence in the formation. However, what surprised General Jinzhao was that the level 3 existence was actually a spiritual plant.

This made General Jinzhao a little excited. After killing the human monk, he would transplant these level 3 spiritual plants to his own cave.

Thinking of this, General Jinzhao became more determined to kill Gu Mo. However, in order to kill the human monk, he had to break the formation first.

Although he needed to withstand the enemy's attacks, General Jinzhao was not afraid of being injured. Rather, getting injured was already commonplace for him. He was seriously injured and on the verge of death several times along the way, but in the end he survived and became the final winner.

As long as he is sure of winning, General Jinzhao will never lack the courage to fight to the death.

The golden giant claw fell again, and the light curtain formed by the nut array began to vibrate violently, but soon the light curtain returned to calm.

"Break it for me! Break it for me!"

Seeing this, General Jinzhao continued to attack in defiance of the evil, smashing down with his giant golden claws again and again.

"Kakakaka!"

Every time General Jinzhao attacks, a crack will appear on the nuts in the nut array. If the opponent continues to attack like this for a period of time, the nut array will not be able to withstand it.

But Gu Mo's expression remained calm, because before that, General Golden Claw would be the first to collapse. Although the pea shooters' attacks would hardly pose a threat to General Golden Claw, their large numbers could greatly consume his strength, especially the flame peas blessed by the torch stump, which could really cause damage to General Golden Claw.

The continuous accumulation of damage will eventually lead to a qualitative change.

"boom!"

As a flaming pea hit General Jinzhao's abdomen, a piece of the shell on it suddenly cracked. The sound of the cracking shell woke up the furious General Jinzhao.

He knew that he could not capture the human monk this time, so he could only retreat first and wait until he gathered a few helpers before getting rid of this human.

"It's a bit late to leave now." Gu Mo said calmly.

If General Jinzhao in his prime wanted to leave, Gu Mo might not be able to stop him. But at this moment, General Jinzhao's strength had been mostly consumed, and his strongest defensive shell had been broken. How could Gu Mo let him get away in this state?

"what!"

When General Jinzhao was retreating, suddenly, vines emerged from the lake and tied up General Jinzhao. Those were the level 3 entangled water plants that had recovered in the lake before.

"Get out of here!"

General Jinzhao waved his giant golden claws to cut the vines that were wrapped around his body. General Jinzhao obviously knew that if he was trapped, he would be in danger.

Fortunately, although the unknown vines hindered his retreat, General Jinzhao was confident that he could escape.

"Sure enough, it is still a bit difficult for one entangled water plant to trap a powerful monster with the peak combat power of level 3." Gu Mo looked at the struggling General Golden Claw, and then let the second entangled water plant take action.

In an instant, the number of vines wrapping around General Jinzhao doubled, and soon General Jinzhao was tied up like a dumpling.

"If you have the guts, come fight me in single combat. Why resort to such tactics?"

The tied-up General Jinzhao roared, because only in this way could he relieve the anxiety in his heart. This time, General Jinzhao felt an unprecedented crisis, a crisis of death.

"If you don't agree, you can use it too."

Gu Mo would naturally not be fooled. With the help of the plant front, he had the confidence to not be afraid of the peak level 3 monster. If he left the plant front, Gu Mo's combat power would be at the early stage of Jindan.

Although he is at the Foundation Establishment stage and possesses the combat power of a Golden Core, which is already an extremely terrifying thing, but facing a powerful monster like General Jinzhao who has the combat power of the third level peak, Gu Mo's combat power is still not enough.

Besides, the other party is already the seafood in the pot, and Gu Mo would be a fool to choose to confront the other party head-on.

He commanded the Pea Shooter to aim at the broken shell on General Jinclaw's abdomen and fired again. After a gap was opened, a big bright red cherry appeared in Gu Mo's hand.

This will be the final blow.

Gu Mo wrapped the cherry bomb with spiritual power and threw it into the hole in General Jinzhao's abdomen. If the cherry bomb exploded from the outside, it might not kill General Jinzhao, but if it exploded from the inside, General Jinzhao would definitely die.

"Human, if you want me to die, then let's die together!"

General Jin Zha looked at Gu Mo in the formation with fierce eyes. He knew that he was doomed this time, but he would not let the enemy have an easy time. At least he, General Jin Zha, would not turn this body and this demon pill into materials for human cultivators.

"not good!"

Feeling the violent energy in General Jin Claw's body, Gu Mo's face changed. The other party wanted to self-destruct his demon pill. General Jin Claw's demon pill was in the late 3rd level and had not reached the peak of 3rd level. After all, his combat power depended on the golden claw. But at this moment, in General Jin Claw's body, not only was the demon pill self-destructing, but there was also the cherry bomb that Gu Mo threw in.

With the combination of the two, General Jinzhao would definitely be dead, but the problem is that the power of the explosion would also soar exponentially.

"Boom!"

Before Gu Mo could react, the horrific explosion instantly engulfed the entire island.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

As the nut array faced the explosion head-on, the light curtain was filled with huge waves, and the second-grade top-quality nuts exploded one after another. Fortunately, the three third-grade nuts withstood the explosion, preventing the plants in the array from being affected.

Only the plants were not damaged, but Gu Mo's face was extremely ugly, because this level 3 water vein suffered severe damage in this super explosion.

At this moment, the spiritual power in the water vein is rapidly fading. Now this water vein has fallen to the second-grade top-grade, and the grade is still declining. Gu Mo estimates that this third-grade water vein will eventually fall to the second-grade low-grade water vein.

This is because Gu Mo's nut formation protected a part of the core water vein. Otherwise, it would be a blessing to have a level 1 water vein.

The water vein is damaged and it is extremely difficult to repair it. Unless Gu Mo has a treasure like the Water Vein Pearl, he will have to wait hundreds of years for the water vein to repair itself.

But Gu Mo obviously didn't have that much time. This time he successfully killed General Golden Claws. All the valuable demon pills, shells and other important materials were gone, leaving only a pair of golden claws intact.

The price Gu Mo paid for this was the destruction of a level 3 water vein, which was a huge loss.

Without the 3rd level water vein, many of Gu Mo's subsequent things would not be possible. This was obviously something Gu Mo could not tolerate.

"In that case, we can only take a risk and give it a try."

Gu Mo took a deep breath and made a decision in his heart. General Jin Claw was a powerful demon with peak combat power at level 3, so his cave should be a level 3 spiritual land. Now that General Jin Claw was dead, Gu Mo would occupy his spiritual land.

Thinking of this, Gu Mo quickly put the plants into the black fog space and prepared to move. Before the other big monsters could react, he occupied General Jinzha's territory.
