Swallowing the Stars: My Comprehension is Beyond the Heavens!

Chapter 85 The Spirit of Plants

Even the glaring sunlight in the early morning could not break through the mist over the lake.

In the thick fog, Luo Xia and Luo Feng sat on the beach, quietly waiting for dawn.

The two brothers didn't sleep all night and didn't dare to light a fire.

They were afraid that the flames would attract terrifying monsters from the lake.

After waiting for almost two more hours, until it was fully light, Luo Xia stood up and said to Luo Feng, "Let's go, brother, let's go see what's so strange about this island!"

"Um."

Luo Feng nodded and followed Luo Xia into the interior of the island.

The island is covered with lush vegetation, with towering trees rising from the ground. Walking among them, shrouded in mist, feels like stepping back into the era when the earth was ruled by dinosaurs.

Luo Xia and Luo Feng were very cautious throughout their journey, not daring to be careless.

"That's really strange..."

Luo Feng looked puzzled. "With such lush vegetation here, there should be plenty of monsters. But we've ventured two or three miles in and haven't seen a single trace of them... Moreover, the monsters in the lake don't seem to dare to climb onto this island."

Luo Xia suddenly stopped and looked at an unidentified plant that was a vibrant green in the distance. "That plant is strange... I can feel a strong life force emanating from it!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng followed Luo Xia's gaze and looked at the strange plant.

This plant was different from the surrounding vegetation. It radiated a luminous glow, with specks of green light surrounding it. Luo Xia and Luo Feng could smell a refreshing fragrance as they took a deep breath.

"What kind of plant is this?"

Luo Feng asked, somewhat surprised.

"I don't know..." Luo Xia cautiously approached the plant. When he was less than five meters away from the plant, its branches suddenly grew longer, like an iron whip, and lashed out at Luo Xia!

call out!

The branch pierced the air, startling Luo Feng so much that he instinctively shouted, "Watch out!"

However, Rorschach had already reacted. The moment the plant branch swung, the throwing knife flew out and swiftly severed the plant.

gurgling...

Green sap oozed from the cut part of the plant, while an even more fragrant aroma filled the air.

Luo Feng could vaguely see a kind of green light in the branches and trunk of the plant.

He stepped forward, peeled open the branch, and surprisingly took out a shimmering, glowing crystal.

"What is this?" he asked.

Luo Xia took a closer look, and the information he had read immediately came to mind. In the elite training camp, in addition to cultivation, they could also access various materials that were not available to the outside world.

He had seen a video clip that included an introduction to this thing.

Rorschach replied, "It must be the spirit of plants and trees!"

Luo Feng looked at the plant spirit in his hand, which was only the size of a thumb, with a puzzled expression. "A plant spirit?"

Luo Xia nodded and explained to Luo Feng, "Brother, this should be the spirit of plants! The so-called spirit of plants is a treasure formed after plants undergo metamorphosis!"

"Plants that possess the spirit of vegetation have basic instincts such as attack and self-defense. That's why this plant attacked me just now when I approached."

Luo Feng asked疑惑地问道, "What is the purpose of these plant spirits?"

As Rorschach recalled the materials he had read, he said:

"Each spirit of plant and tree is said to contain the essence of heaven and earth and has special effects. For example, some spirits of plants and trees can increase physical attributes by about 6 to 10 times, with the ultimate potential being the peak of a high-level war god."

"This thing is that powerful?" Luo Feng asked in surprise, looking at the spirit of plants in his hand.

Luo Xia laughed and said, "Of course it's amazing. Many years ago, someone discovered a similar plant spirit. At that time, it was a willow-like plant spirit, which was also known as the Thousand-Year Willow Heart."

"The person who discovered the heartwood of the thousand-year-old willow tree swallowed it and found that the activity of their body's cells greatly increased, their body's recovery speed increased many times over, and their physical fitness also improved dramatically!"

Luo Xia looked at the plant spirit in Luo Feng's hand and said with a smile, "This is definitely a good thing!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng's expression became agitated. He looked at the broken plant and asked, "You're saying that the spirit of plants has basic offensive and defensive instincts?"

As he spoke, he looked around at the surrounding trees and continued, "In that case, it's not surprising that there are no monsters or plants on this island. There are probably quite a few spirits of plants and trees here. Perhaps there were monsters and animals here before, but they were eventually killed or driven away by these spirits!"

Luo Xia laughed and said, "Very likely! Big brother, if we can find all the spirits of plants and trees, we'll be rich!"

"Then what are we waiting for?" Luo Feng waved his hand and laughed, "Let's find them!"

Luo Xia nodded with a smile.

The two brothers began searching for the spirits of plants and trees on the island.

Although this place has been discovered by satellite, no one has ever set foot here.

Right now, there are only the two brothers on this island, so any plant spirits they find will belong to them!

Luo Xia and Luo Feng searched all the way, and before long, twelve plant spirits appeared in their backpacks.

They continued on their way.

Suddenly, a bright flower bloomed beside me, with a diameter of three or four meters.

It was like a dome descending from the sky, about to engulf Luo Xia and Luo Feng!

Luo Feng and Luo Xia reacted immediately, a cold glint flashing in their eyes.

Two throwing knives were launched.

shhhhhh...

The flying knife sliced ​​through the flowers like threads of death, slicing them into pieces that fell to the ground in a flurry.

"Is this a man-eating plant?"

Luo Feng stared in disbelief at the flower fragments on the ground. From the broken stem, a blood-red sap was gushing out, resembling fresh blood—a very strange sight.

Rorschach used his telekinesis to pick up a fragment of a flower. He examined it and said, "It's a carnivorous plant. The largest number of carnivorous plants in the world are in the Amazon rainforest of South America. I didn't expect to find one on this island."

In fact, since the Great Nirvana, all the animals that have mutated and evolved in the world are animals.

Few plants undergo evolutionary variation.

However, the man-eating plant underwent a mutation, which is quite peculiar.

After dealing with the man-eating plant, Luo Xia and his group continued onward. Before long, they suddenly saw nine willow trees ahead!

"Willow trees!" Luo Feng exclaimed with delight as he gazed at the willow trees, asking Luo Xia, "Xia, could these willow trees be the kind with willow heartwood you were talking about?"

Luo Xia looked at the willow trees, nodded, and said, "Very likely! We'll find out if we try."

As he spoke, he controlled the throwing knife and shot it towards one of the willow trees.

As the flying knife approached, the willow branches of the tree suddenly danced, transforming into threads that deflected the knife while simultaneously wrapping around the culprit, Luo Xia!

"Truly the spirit of plants and trees!"

Luo Feng's tone was very serious at this moment, because the other eight willow trees had also launched an attack!

These nine willow trees, even the thinnest branches, had a diameter of over one meter.

The thickest willow tree has a trunk diameter of over three meters and a height of nearly one hundred meters, with thousands of branches hanging down, radiating a faint golden luster.

They launched an attack, with thousands upon thousands of branches spreading out like a vast net, densely entangling Luo Xia and Luo Feng!
