Chapter 99: Demonic vine
A surge of black energy surged out of Yuan Ming’s palm, seemingly endless, continuously injecting into the mind of the white eagle.
As time passed, the consciousness of the white eagle gradually began to deteriorate, and the resistance became weaker and weaker.
Yuan Ming’s mouth curled up, continuing to operate the Beast Taming Technique, intending to completely subdue this white eagle.
From the current situation, there was a great chance of success this time.Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com
At this moment, a sudden change occurred!
The ground beneath Yuan Ming’s feet suddenly cracked open, and a purple-black vine shot out, swiftly entwining around his legs.
This vine was only as thick as a finger, with smooth skin and slender leaves. The vine and leaves were adorned with purple spots, looking quite beautiful.
However, despite its slender and beautiful appearance, the power contained within this vine was astonishing. Yuan Ming’s legs were instantly tightened, unable to move at all, as if they were locked by iron chains.
Although Yuan Ming was surprised, he did not panic. He didn’t even give up on subduing the white eagle. He pointed his finger at the Green Fish Sword beside him.
The Green Fish Sword leaped up and turned into a fan-shaped green shadow, slashing at the purple-black vine.
With a light sound of "bang," a shallow crack appeared on the vine, but it was less than one-third of the vine’s body.
A hint of surprise finally flashed across Yuan Ming’s face.
Although the Green Fish Sword was only a semi-magic weapon, as his cultivation improved, the power it displayed became stronger and stronger. It could easily cut through a tree trunk as thick as a water bucket, yet it couldn’t do anything to a slender vine?
The purple-black strange vine twisted like a snake, quickly drilling out from the ground and entangling Yuan Ming’s upper body.
Yuan Ming hurriedly drove the Green Fish Sword again, slashing at the crack in the strange vine.
However, the strange vine seemed to have consciousness. It quickly twisted and shook.
With a sound of "bang," the Green Fish Sword struck the strange vine, but it hit another place. The previously cracked area emitted a faint purple-black light, healing at a visible speed.
Yuan Ming’s pupils contracted, and he quickly gave up on subduing the white eagle, retracting all his spiritual power.
Without his spiritual power sustaining it, the tree prison that imprisoned the white eagle also disintegrated. The white eagle escaped from death and immediately struggled to fly away without looking back.
Yuan Ming didn’t have time to pay attention to the white eagle. He activated all his spiritual power and infused it into the Green Fish Sword. A hazy green light rose from the sword, fiercely slashing at the root of the purple-black strange vine close to the ground.
With a light sound of "pu," the strange vine was cut off by more than half, and purple liquid sprayed out from the cut.
Yuan Ming was delighted to see this and immediately urged the Green Fish Sword again, intending to completely cut off the purple vine.
But at this moment, the ground cracked open again, and a slightly thinner purple vine emerged, swiftly wrapping around the Green Fish Sword, entangling it several times like lightning.
Yuan Ming didn’t expect this to happen and hurriedly tried to free the Green Fish Sword.
However, the Green Fish Sword was only a semi-magic weapon after all, with no essential difference from an ordinary sword. It had to accelerate a certain distance to exert the power of its blade, and it couldn’t cause much damage to the things entangled on it. No matter how hard Yuan Ming swung the sword, he couldn’t shake off the strange vine.
Not only that, more and more vines drilled out from the ground, entangling Yuan Ming’s body.
His upper body was soon entangled by the strange vines, not only rendering his hands immobile, but also causing his face under the frog skin to turn red.
The power of these strange vines was astonishing, squeezing his bones until they made a cracking sound, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
Yuan Ming’s heart sank. He knew that he couldn’t deal with these strange vines with the Black Toad Transformation.
But now his whole body was entangled by the purple-black strange vines, and he couldn’t even change into the White Ape Transformation.
"Right! Since these vines are plants, they should not be able to withstand the erosion of the Toad Poison Arrow." Yuan Ming suddenly remembered something and activated his spiritual power, injecting it into the poison sac on his back.
The damaged vine body that was eroded by the venom began to heal rapidly.
Yuan Ming’s face darkened, but he did not distract himself to stop the roots from sucking blood. All of his mana was still used to display the beast taming technique, relentlessly impacting the consciousness of the purple-black monster vine.
His mana and soul power were almost depleted, and if they were further dispersed, it would be even more difficult to achieve anything.
The only thing he could do now was to go all out and destroy the consciousness of the monster vine with the beast taming technique, or there might be a glimmer of hope.
One person and one vine were locked in a stalemate.
Time passed bit by bit.
Yuan Ming’s face turned pale, and his body was swaying, looking extremely weak.
His mana and soul power had already reached their limit, and most importantly, more than half of his blood had been sucked away by the monster vine. He felt dizzy, and if it weren’t for his strong physique, he would have fainted by now.
The state of the purple-black monster vine was not much better. After enduring the impact of the beast taming technique for so long, its will was already on the verge of collapse, and most of the vines entwined around Yuan Ming had fallen off.
"The situation is not good! Although the consciousness of this monster vine has greatly weakened, it can still hold on for a while. But my condition is too poor, and my mana and soul power are almost exhausted. I could collapse at any time!" Yuan Ming felt anxious and glanced at his right arm.
With a slight grit of his teeth, he released a strand of mana and soul power and injected it into the incense burner mark on his right arm.
Based on past experience, every time his spiritual power was greatly depleted or his spiritual power was attacked, the incense burner would emit a heat flow similar to his spiritual power, giving him a helping hand.
Yuan Ming’s spiritual power was greatly depleted at the moment, but the incense burner remained motionless. Helpless, he took the risk and tried to activate it.
The mark emitted a faint blue light, and the blue incense burner flashed and flew to the top of Yuan Ming’s head, stopping at the Baihui acupoint.
Yuan Ming was stunned when he saw this scene.
Except for the time when his spiritual power possessed the young emperor, every time the blue incense burner was summoned, it obediently followed his command. This situation had never occurred before.
Before he could think further, a thick heat flow gushed out from the incense burner, passed through the Baihui acupoint, and entered his sea of consciousness.
Yuan Ming’s exhausted spirit suddenly revitalized, and he quickly operated the Death Moon method to absorb the heat flow. The almost dried-up spiritual power in his sea of consciousness began to recover.
However, the heat flow emitted by the incense burner this time was too much, and the Death Moon method couldn’t absorb it in time. Nearly half of the heat flow was directly injected into the beast taming technique.
The black gas produced by the beast taming technique suddenly increased several times, like a black raging dragon, rushing into the body of the purple-black monster vine.
The purple-black monster vine trembled violently, and its resistance weakened.
Perhaps sensing that Yuan Ming couldn’t absorb it, the heat flow emitted by the incense burner suddenly split in half. Most of it still entered Yuan Ming’s sea of consciousness, while the other half entered the black toad’s skin.
A strange black light appeared on the black toad’s skin, and the frog’s phantom appeared again, looking much clearer than before. There were also many green spots on its surface, which seemed to be the same color as the incense burner.
The frog phantom opened its mouth and spewed out a black light, which merged into the heavily wounded frog’s back.
The poison sacs that were pierced by the monster vine’s roots slowly wriggled, and black venom overflowed once again, enveloping the roots of the purple-black monster vine.The black toad venom had undergone some changes, its color had lightened significantly, and it was now interspersed with specks of green, mirroring the situation of the frog shadow.
Although the color of the venom had lightened, its power had greatly increased. The moment the demonic vine’s roots came into contact with it, they immediately began to dissolve rapidly. The entire root system of the demonic vine was slowly sinking, as if it was about to be corroded and swallowed by the black toad venom.
The purple-black demonic vine was under attack from both sides, causing its will to collapse even faster.
Just as Yuan Ming gritted his teeth, preparing to continue to stimulate the beast control technique and launch the final fierce attack, the green incense burner suddenly trembled, and its surface flashed with a green light.
Yuan Ming’s mind exploded with a loud bang, as if a thunderbolt had exploded, his vision instantly turned pitch black, and he passed out.
