In the underworld, amidst the vast Plant Forest, Ye Jiuyun's expression turned serious in an instant.
He gripped his twin blades tightly, readying himself for battle.
Ye Jiuyun's hearing was fully alert; he could distinctly make out the sound of an unknown object rubbing against something in the Underground Ancient Tomb Cave.
Ye Jiuyun warned everyone to be careful, as no one knew what would happen next.
"Here it comes!"
Suddenly, a burst sound echoed in his ears.
A gigantic vine burst forth from below ground.
"Crack!"
It lashed in the air with an explosive sound, targeting Ye Jiuyun first.
"What is this thing?"
The members of the research institute were startled, watching in disbelief as the vine drilled up from below ground.
Fortunately, Ye Jiuyun had quick reflexes.
With a fluid motion of his long blade, he made a clean and decisive slash.
Cutting the vine in two.
The massive vine was incredibly thick and heavy, making a dull thud as it fell to the ground!
