Standing outside the earth wall, Zhang Yuan narrowed his eyes as he stared at the Cheng Rui and Cheng Yue.
Cheng Yue waved his hands and the earth wall turned into sand. Everyone thought that the Mutant Banyan Tree had been killed by the attack just now. Unexpectedly, the moment the earth wall disappeared, countless vines rushed toward them.
"Dodge!" Xie Zhou shouted as he waved his hands.
The next moment, several wind blades flew toward the vines.
Crash! Crash! Crash!
The wind blades cut off the vines instantly. While most of them managed to dodge, some of them were caught. The moment the vines wrapped around their ankles, they retreated back to the mutant tree.
"Akhh! Help me!"
"Ahhh!"
Those who were caught didn’t have time to free themselves before being pulled into a hole hidden under the mutant tree. Soon after they were dragged inside, the thick scent of blood wafted in the air.
At the same time, the burning parts of the mutant tree healed at a speed clear to the naked eye.
"This is bad, the tree can regenerate!" Yin Yusheng exclaimed.
Fu Guai narrowed his eyes when he heard this. Before everyone could react, he dashed toward the mutant tree.
"Brother Fu!" Pei Yixie shouted in shock.
The next moment, Fu Guai’s body was wrapped by the vines and he was pulled into the hole. Seeing this, Zhang Yuan and Xie Zhou no longer held back and said, "Attack!"
Realizing the danger, the hired mercenaries were finally willing to listen to orders. Thanks to this, their teamwork improved and they managed to avoid the mutant tree’s attacks while dealing more damage.
While they were fighting fiercely outside, Fu Guai broke free from the vines using his brute force. Unlike other ability-users, he was a mutant. So, when he stood inside the hole, the mutant tree didn’t detect his energy and stopped attacking him.
He opened his palm and created a small wisp of fire to illuminate his surroundings. Under his feet were piles of bones. As he stepped on them, the sound of bones cracking echoed in the closed area.
He looked around for ten minutes before he finally found the mutant tree’s crystal core. The crystal core was a deep green color but emitted a bright light. After he extinguished the wisp of fire, he reached out toward it.
The moment his fingers touched the crystal core, the Mutant Banyan Tree suddenly let out a high-pitched shriek and crashed around wildly. It was as if it knew that danger was near and it tried to save itself. The vines that had ignored Fu Guai before suddenly wrapped around his body.
This time, he didn’t let them trap him and created a fire barrier around his body. When the vines touched the fire, they burned and turned into ashes.
Knowing that his time was limited, he reached out and tore off the crystal core from the mutant tree’s body. As soon as he took it, a thick root hit his chest with a loud sound.
Duagh!
