Chapter 669: The Great Battle with the Azure Spirit Tree
Peerless Medicine God · 第669章 大战青灵树
Ye Yuan was handsome, but it certainly wasn't because of his good looks that he had no reaction.
However, Ye Yuan naturally wouldn't tell them about the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood he carried; this bit of poison was nothing to sixth-order experts, and they could just endure it.
But they still held a skeptical attitude toward the powder's effects. As they entered the great formation, each of them channeled their full power, afraid that those vines would coil around them.
Ye Yuan, however, walked in boldly, swaggering into the formation.
When they approached the Azure Spirit Tree, the Dark Demon Tiger clan members discovered that not only did the vines not coil around them, but they even avoided them as if afraid.
Seeing this, these few finally realized that Ye Yuan wasn't bragging.
The man had real skill!
No wonder a fourth-order brat dared to boast about capturing the Azure Spirit Tree; with just a small bottle of powder, he had solved what had given even these sixth-order experts a headache.
"Big brother, this powder of yours is truly miraculous! Those vines really ignore us now!" Bai Guang exclaimed in wonder.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "All things in the world mutually restrain each other. The Azure Spirit Tree is formidable, but there are things it fears. This powder is made from Deerborn Grass as the base, fused with other materials, and is called Deerborn Powder. It is one of the things the Azure Spirit Tree dreads. Deerborn Grass is only fifth-order, but once its toxin enters the Azure Spirit Tree, it spreads like a plague, suppressing its wood elemental power. These vines are all offshoots of the Azure Spirit Tree and naturally fear the scent of Deerborn Powder."
Hu Rong and his clansmen were dumbfounded listening to this. Was Ye Yuan really this knowledgeable about the Azure Spirit Tree?
Everyone understood the principle that all things mutually restrain each other, but who knew the natural enemy of a rare thing like the Azure Spirit Tree?
Was this kid a walking encyclopedia?
Bai Guang gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely, "Big brother is big brother, truly amazing!"
Ye Yuan laughed and scolded, "Is this your first day knowing me? This little bit is nothing."
Hu Rong and his clansmen exchanged glances, all feeling speechless.
The Tiger Clan had spent ten years setting things up without success, and Ye Yuan had solved it with a bottle of powder—and that was nothing?
Then in Ye Yuan's eyes, what kind of thing counted as remarkable?
"We're close to the Azure Spirit Tree's main body. Everyone be careful. This spirit vein is completely occupied by the Azure Spirit Tree; its feelers can reach every corner. In a moment, you help me hold off these offshoots, and I'll deal with the main body," Ye Yuan said solemnly.
"You'll deal with the main body?" Hu Rong's eyes widened in disbelief.
Hu Rong knew Ye Yuan had considerable skill and should be able to occupy a large part of the Azure Spirit Tree's attention.
But according to Hu Rong's plan, the main assault should be his, after all, Ye Yuan's strength was too low.
But what was this now? It was completely opposite to his plan!
"I'd like to let you take the lead, but can you handle it? The Azure Spirit Tree is currently attacking the great formation with full force; these offshoots are acting purely on instinct. Once the main body comes to its senses, this Deerborn Powder will be useless no matter how strong it is," Ye Yuan said flatly.
Hu Rong was left speechless; he had no power to resist before the Azure Spirit Tree.
"Alright, no more wasting time. In a moment, make as much noise as possible to attract its attention. Leave the rest to me."
"Big brother, be careful!" Bai Guang said with concern.
"Mm, don't worry, it'll be fine."
With that, Ye Yuan leaped up and rapidly approached the Azure Spirit Tree's main body.
At this, Hu Rong and the others were no longer as relaxed; each became highly alert, as if facing a great enemy.
Ye Yuan's rapid approach finally alarmed the Azure Spirit Tree!
But the Azure Spirit Tree didn't pay much attention to Ye Yuan; it only sent some vines to coil around him while continuing to attack the great formation.
In its eyes, this fourth-order brat Ye Yuan was little different from an ant.
However, Ye Yuan fully activated his Wind Movement Intent, skillfully evading those vines, and still moved quickly toward the Azure Spirit Tree's main body.
By the time the Azure Spirit Tree reacted, Ye Yuan was less than a hundred zhang from its main body.
A hundred zhang was but a blink of an eye for Ye Yuan now.
At this moment, the Azure Spirit Tree finally took this ant-like Ye Yuan seriously, stopped attacking the great formation, and focused on Ye Yuan.
With the Azure Spirit Tree shifting its focus, the great formation finally eased, directly suppressing much of the Azure Spirit Tree's green light.
Even so, given the Azure Spirit Tree's strength, dealing with Ye Yuan was still more than enough!
Its main body once again blazed with green light, and countless vines burst from the ground, filling the entire space.
Even with Ye Yuan's supreme movement technique, he couldn't charge through a space with no gaps.
Before Ye Yuan now was like a high wall; no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't leap over it.
Ye Yuan frowned slightly, and with a single hand gesture, countless fire lotuses suddenly appeared around him, wrapping him tightly.
As soon as the fire lotuses appeared, they unhesitatingly burned toward those vines.
Little Fire was now a fifth-order primordial flame, with extremely powerful flame energy.
Those vines were all offshoots of the Azure Spirit Tree, also around fifth-order in strength.
But in terms of attributes, the Pure Sandalwood Fire Lotus completely restrained those vines!
The vines emitted a crackling sound and were soon burned to ashes by Ye Yuan's primordial flame.
However, the headache was that this area was a wood-attribute spirit vein, and the vines were like wildfire—they grew endlessly.
They grew wildly, then were mercilessly burned away by Little Fire.
Hu Rong and the others were also busy, locked in battle with the vines.
Yet the commotion from their group combined was not as great as what Ye Yuan was causing.
Although these few were all sixth-order experts, they were helpless against such rampant vines.
Originally, the Azure Spirit Tree had focused on Hu Rong and the others, but now it had no time to bother with them, putting all its energy into Ye Yuan.
With that, the vines around Hu Rong's group lost control, suddenly easing their pressure.
Hu Rong watched the massive commotion on Ye Yuan's side, dumbfounded.
What surprised him was not that Ye Yuan possessed a primordial flame, but that Ye Yuan's control over it had reached the pinnacle!
Even if an ordinary martial artist had a primordial flame, they absolutely couldn't achieve complete isolation from the vine attacks!
And this was a wood-attribute spirit vein; even if an ordinary primordial flame could block the vines, it couldn't instantly burn them to ashes.
This primordial flame was also extraordinary!
This youth was truly terrifying!
However, Ye Yuan's speed was also slowed down by these wildly growing vines.
A hundred zhang was not so easy to cross after all.
