Chapter 49 Plants can also kill people!
"What a rich aura of heaven and earth!"

Deep in the Yunxia Mountains.

After Wang Xu, Li Xuan and other psychics arrived, they instantly felt that the spiritual energy here was extremely rich, and it even turned into water vapor, which even wet the ends of their hair when they passed through it.

Li Xuan looked around and was extremely surprised. She also figured out some things. "With such a precious place, it's no wonder that the Golden Tiger King traveled thousands of miles from Tianning City to get here."

Even though everyone had already felt that the spiritual energy was abundant when they first approached the Yunxia Mountains, they now understood that the depths of the Yunxia Mountains were completely different from the outside world.

This was a rich spiritual energy that they had never felt before.

"follow me."

After resting for a while, Wang Xu gently brushed the dirt off his hair and whispered, "According to the map, we are not far from the seven-colored lotus."

"Work harder, try to finish the task as soon as possible, and go home earlier."

"Uh-huh."

Everyone had no objection and followed him silently.

"Oh my God!"

"This... this is actually a group of ferocious beasts!"

Not long after, Wang Xu and others stopped, bent their bodies and hid behind an ancient tree, looking extremely surprised.

In their sight, there were more than a hundred huge apes, some sitting, some lying, some sleeping soundly, or absorbing spiritual energy, and everything seemed to be in order.

"Be careful."

Wang Xu was even more cautious. He used his burrowing ability to dig a hole. After everyone had gone in, he left only a vent and carefully observed the apes.

They didn’t know that not all of these more than one hundred giant apes were ferocious beasts.

"Captain, let's go."

Lin Xiaoxiao tugged at Wang Xu's sleeve and whispered nervously, "With so many giant apes, there is absolutely no way you and I can defeat them."

"If we attack openly, I'm afraid we will suffer heavy losses."

"Look again."

Wang Xu turned around and said to Li Xuan, "Besides the giant apes, are there any other ferocious beasts nearby?"

"That's all they have for now."

Boom!
As he was speaking, a muffled sound suddenly came from the group of giant apes in front, and even the ground was shaking.

Xu Liang rubbed his eyes which were filled with dust, and when he looked curiously, he was immediately stunned, "This... This is too scary, right?"

I saw two giant apes working together to lift a huge rock that was half a person's height and came in front of the strongest giant ape in their tribe. That was how the muffled sound came from.

What really shocked them was that the giant ape leader simply bent down slightly and lifted the huge rock, and then moved it up and down like a human lifting weights.

"That stone must weigh at least a hundred pounds, right?"

"more than!"

Li Xuan shook her head slightly, her eyes full of shock, "This giant ape leader is one of the second-level beasts I sensed!"

"But where did it learn this exercise method?"

In their eyes, Yuan Dali's behavior was very strange, but they couldn't tell why.

Even ferocious beasts have evolved to become beings that know how to exercise. If we don’t target them, will there be any way for humans to survive in the future?
"Let's go. We must complete the mission as soon as possible."

After thinking for a while, Wang Xu immediately led the team to escape underground, leaving a tunnel for the rest of the team to pass through. "This place is too weird. I don't know if the information sent back by the drone is still useful."

"Li Xuan, don't interrupt your sensing ability."

"Yes, Captain!"

The few of them continued to move forward secretly, following the tunnel to bypass the gathering place of the giant ape clan and heading straight for the seven-colored lotus.

Xu Liang was the rear guard for the crowd.

Before he walked into the tunnel, he looked back at the giant ape who was still exercising, and could not help but shuddering, thinking to himself: If we were to go up against this giant ape, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to block even one of its punches, and would be smashed into a meat paste in an instant, right?
Fortunately, their target was not the giant apes. With Wang Xu, the burrower, and Li Xuan, the sensor, they left quietly and finally avoided the other beasts perfectly and came to the outside of the valley where the colorful lotus was. "They are not here!"

Li Xuan was slightly excited.

She lowered her voice and said, "Of the five second-level beasts that we sensed, except for the giant ape, the other ones are still missing."

"But the good news is that there doesn't seem to be any ferocious beasts guarding this valley, so we have enough time to get the seven-colored lotus and leave directly."

"That's good!"

Wang Xu nodded slightly and felt relieved immediately.

At first he thought that there was only one golden tiger king in Yunxia Mountain. Even if he couldn't defeat it, he could use his burrowing ability to escape underground.

But now, he just prayed that the mission would go smoothly and didn't want to encounter any ferocious beasts at all.

"Rest for three minutes, adjust your breathing, and then start moving!"

Wang Xu looked at the time, then quietly opened a hole, and fresh air rushed in instantly.

They breathed greedily until they felt refreshed again, and three minutes passed.

"Xu Liang, help me protect Lin Xiaoxiao as she approaches the seven-colored lotus."

"Li Xuan, be on guard in all directions and be on the lookout for ferocious beasts that may appear at any time."

"Yes!"

The four of them moved quickly, moving towards the colorful lotus little by little.

Li Xuan was even more excited. "I have already sensed the location of the seven-colored lotus, and there are no ferocious beasts guarding it."

"Xiao Xiao, use your invisibility ability immediately!"

"it is good!"

But just as she finished speaking, Li Xuan suddenly sniffed and said in surprise, "No! There's something strange here, everyone be careful!"

"what happened?"

The others hurriedly stopped and looked back.

She looked around suspiciously, extremely puzzled, "Did you smell anything strange?"

"For example, is the bloody smell here too strong?"

Li Xuan always felt that something was wrong, but when she looked around, she found that apart from some trees that had fallen down or broken due to the previous battle with the ferocious beasts, there was nothing unusual around. She didn't even see any soil stained with blood.

But where did that bloody smell come from?

"Don't scare us!"

Xu Liang shrank his neck, fear gradually appeared in his eyes, and he was even ready to take out the folding steel plate. "But after hearing what you said, I seem to smell blood, too."

"Everyone, please pay attention to your surroundings and report any situation immediately."

The team instantly became nervous, but after observing for a long time, they did not find any ferocious beasts, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, it was just a false alarm."

"and many more!"

Suddenly, Lin Xiaoxiao pointed at the ancient vine in front of her in fear, her voice trembling, "This ancient vine...seems...seems to have moved..."

"Are you kidding me? Can plants kill people?"

Xu Liang laughed immediately, thinking she was making a fuss out of nothing. "Plants are not animals, how could they move?"

“Shhh!”

As soon as the words fell, a strange friction sound suddenly sounded all around.

In their peripheral vision, several blood-red vines were quietly sweeping over!
