Chapter 286: Chapter 45: The Longevity Fruit Is Obtained! Bloodthirsty Vine’s Meritorious Deeds (6,300-Word Chapter)_3
This gave him a sense of not caring about selling off the ancestral land.
Li Yuzhe sighed deeply.
On the arena.
Wang Shouzhe threw out handfuls of Fire Dragon Fruits, causing the arena to burst open, while the icy storm erupted simultaneously. The primary effect was to interrupt Jii Mingyu’s powerful attack, which was being prepared.
"Pfft!"
The counterforce turned Jii Mingyu’s face pale, and he spat a mouthful of blood.
While he was bewildered, he suddenly heard Wang Shouzhe’s voice in his ear: "Brother Mingyu, I thought I’d teach you a lesson. Your big attack takes a bit too long to accumulate power, not really suitable for arena combat."
"Plus, you’re too talkative, which can give the enemy a chance to turn the tables."
"Pfft!" This statement provoked Jii Mingyu, causing him to spit out another mouthful of blood. He angrily rebuked, "Aren’t you also being too chatty, giving me an opportunity at the comeback?"
As soon as Jii Mingyu finished speaking, he suddenly screamed in terror, "What, what is this? It’s, it’s sucking my blood." The pervasive steam obstructed his view, allowing him to rely only on spiritual sense.
"Swish."
Jii Mingyu casually slashed, feeling as if he had cut through something. The profound qi within him billowed, dispersing the dense steam around him.
Focused his eyes.
In his view was a severed, red tentacle resembling an earthworm. It twisted incessantly on the ground, blood oozing from the broken end, exuding an evil and terrifying aura.
He glanced again at his ankle, which now bore a bloody hole. Blood seemed unable to stop pouring out, dripping onto the arena, merging with the icy water, and the dense scent of blood permeated everywhere.
In an instant, a shiver of horror swept through his heart.
"Brother Mingyu, I’m not like you. I talk nonsense to distract you." Wang Shouzhe said cheerfully, "Did you enjoy the power of my Bloodthirsty Vine? Let me tell you a secret, unless you use profound qi to seal the blood vessels, your wound won’t heal anytime soon."
"Bloodthirsty Vine."
Jii Mingyu’s expression turned cold just as he was about to reply.
An extremely weak and obscure sense of danger attacked him from behind.
He cursed inwardly, almost getting distracted again.
Hurriedly leaping forward, he flipped over, and only then did he see the creature attempting a sneak attack.
It was like a blood-red giant serpent-like vine.
But, unlike a smooth serpent’s body, it was covered with dense tentacles, each bearing sharp bloodsucking barbs, moving like seaweed, grotesque and hideous.
Just by looking at it, one knew it was absolutely frightening and evil. Jii Mingyu couldn’t help but shout angrily, "What is this monstrosity?"
"It’s a Bloodthirsty Vine." Wang Shouzhe chuckled, "Brother Mingyu, please enjoy it slowly."
At this moment.
The steam that had just been dispersed rose again, the whole arena becoming a white expanse. As a result, the crowd couldn’t see what was happening inside. All they heard was Jii Mingyu’s continuous angry roars and howls.
Meanwhile.
In the sky, Binglan Ascendant and Changchun Ascendant exchanged grave looks.
"Isn’t this a Bloodthirsty Vine?"
The young disciples were unfamiliar, but how could they not understand? At the Purple Mansion Academy, they often excavated relics of the Divine Martial Dynasty. Although they haven’t unearthed particularly valuable relics yet,
their research on the Divine Martial Dynasty is extensive.
This Bloodthirsty Vine is wildly found in many relics, having previously caused substantial losses to many explorers.
The accursed artifact is extremely malevolent and fierce; once it reaches its peak, even Purple Mansion Realm cultivators might be drained alive.
In short, it’s incredibly dangerous.
Where did this young lad get the Bloodthirsty Vine from a relic, and how did he nurture it into a battle plant?
The two Ascendants’ faces were filled with doubts.
But if it’s only a Bloodthirsty Vine of this level, it probably can’t deal with Jii Mingyu!
Yet, aside from the Bloodthirsty Vine, Wang Shouzhe was still on the arena, and the steam filled the entire arena.
Within the white mist formed by the boiling steam.
Jii Mingyu’s angry and fearful roars became increasingly intense.
He didn’t know how many Bloodthirsty Vine tentacles he had severed. But most of the tentacles had bitten him like leeches before snapping.
Don’t underestimate these bites.
The speed at which these tentacles sucked blood was so fast, they could drain a big gulp almost instantly.
Even more alarming was that after being bitten, there was no pain or abnormality at the wound site. Yet the blood flowed out uncontrollably.
This forced him to allocate a lot of profound qi to seal the blood vessels at the wound.
And that troublesome Wang Shouzhe also joined the fight, continuously suppressing and harassing him. One streak of sword qi after another slashed towards him.
Time was passing rapidly.
And Jii Mingyu felt himself weakening at an alarming pace.
When the mist above the arena dissipated, everyone changed color dramatically upon seeing Jii Mingyu: "Senior Brother Mingyu, please stop, you can’t continue fighting."
Only because Jii Mingyu’s previously spirited and splendid attire was now full of holes, looking utterly disheveled with blood stains everywhere.
Even more frightening was.
His complexion was now ghastly pale, even scarier than a dead person’s.
Binglan Ascendant’s expression also changed drastically. With a clear voice, she berated, "Mingyu, surrender quickly."
Upon hearing his Master’s voice, Jii Mingyu’s mind suddenly cleared a bit. He hurriedly complied, shouting, "I surrender!"
