Fantasy: I'm Really Not A Supreme Master!-Chapter 507 - 459 Why are you chasing me! _1
Yun Xi and her two companions stepped into the Secret Realm.
The black earth, as if having endured endless ravages, was pocked with holes and emitted an eerie and chaotic aura.
Apart from some vine plants, there were no other living creatures in this Secret Realm.
It was as quiet as death.
There weren’t many vine plants in the outer areas, but as they ventured deeper, vines now covered everything in sight.
It was like an ocean of vines.
Many of the vines seemed increasingly sinister, and amidst the soil where the vines took root, faint white bones could be glimpsed.
"There must be great danger ahead!"
At this time, Mu Wanqing spoke gravely, saying:
"According to the message from Lord Sacrificial Spirit... deep within the Secret Realm, among the vines, there are ’Vine People’ hidden."
Zi Ling asked with confusion, "Vine People?"
"Yes, when Lord Sacrificial Spirit was still a seed, it had seen humanoid vines walking in this area. Those Vine People are very powerful!"
"According to Lord Sacrificial Spirit’s speculation, some vines took root on the bodies of exceedingly powerful deceased, inherited the Dao Fruit of these formidable individuals from before their deaths, and underwent a metamorphosis to become Vine People," Mu Wanqing explained.
Upon hearing this, both Yun Xi and Zi Ling were somewhat surprised.
Vines turning into people? What would that be like?
Mu Wanqing said, "However, it’s rare to encounter those Vine People. We probably won’t run into them."
They continued forward, moving farther into the thick of the vines.
At that moment, a jade pendant worn at Yun Xi’s waist suddenly exuded a strange, sinister aura!
As the aura spread, the surrounding vines began to writhe as if awakened, stretching out their tendrils threateningly towards the three of them.
The dense mass of vines was enough to startle anyone!
"Let me handle this."
Zi Ling stepped forward. In her hand, the Phoenix Feather Pen swept across the air.
Instantly, a blazing flame was ignited!
It was the Phoenix True Fire!
Wherever the True Fire passed, all vines were incinerated to ash in an instant.
The rest of the vines, sensing the threat, began to retreat in all directions.
No longer daring to obstruct.
"Sister, about that jade pendant of yours..."
Zi Ling looked curiously at the jade pendant on Yun Xi’s waist.
She could sense a dark, evil aura.
Yun Xi picked up the jade pendant, with a trace of loss flickering in her beautiful eyes.
She of course knew about the two jade pendants left by the First Generation Divine Spirit of the Yun Family...
Two pendants that looked identical.
And now, it seemed that this jade pendant... was clearly the one that harbored the evil nature of the First Generation Divine Spirit!
"The two pendants are identical and hard to discriminate. Did she make a mistake... or was it..."
Yun Xi muttered to herself, her heart filled with immense sorrow...
In reality, Yun Xi was extremely intelligent, so much so that even the deeply scheming Zhan Shaoling couldn’t deceive her.
The clumsy tactics and stratagems of Yun Qin were far inferior to those of Zhan Shaoling...
It was just that she had always regarded Yun Qin as family since she was young...
The profound familial affection made her subconsciously unwilling to think in a negative direction!
Wisdom is easily clouded by emotion.
She didn’t say much, simply crushing the jade pendant into pieces!
...
At this moment, in a sea of densely-packed vines in this blackened wasteland, countless black vines had formed a throne.
And on the throne sat a humanoid creature.
This Divine Spirit was made of vines.
It looked like a dummy made out of vines crafted by an artisan.
But now, as if sensing something, the vine creature stood up.
"Destroying my offspring, you shall die!"
It roared with anger and took a step forward, disappearing from its spot.
...
Yun Xi, Zi Ling, and the others, traveled deeper.
The jade pendants were destroyed, and combined with the power of Zi Ling’s Phoenix Feather Pen, no vines dared to cause trouble again, instead all avoiding them.
Suddenly, a powerful presence surged through the area.
The surrounding vines became frenzied, like a sweeping wave, crazily lunging toward Yun Xi and her companions.
"What’s happening?"
Mu Wanqing voiced her surprise.
"Is that... a Vine Person?"
Zi Ling pointed towards a certain spot within the thicket of vines.
A humanoid vine figure, swift as the wind, approached in an instant!
"Intruders in my realm, daring to lay hands on my offspring, I shall ensure your flesh becomes part of the ’Three Lives Soil’!"
The Vine Person had already arrived, its demeanor utterly cold and detached.
Its presence was extremely powerful, having already surpassed the God-Communicating Realm.
"This is... a Sub-God Level powerhouse, in the God Transformation Realm!"
Mu Wanqing’s face changed color!
Divinity Transformation comes after Communicating Spirit, and only after Divinity Transformation is Wandering God!
The God Transformation Realm was already being termed as Next-to-God.
Such Cultivators were extremely rare to encounter, as all of them were in seclusion, struggling for a glimpse of divinity, and would absolutely not reveal themselves unless absolutely necessary!
The power of the Sub-God Level Vine Person was overwhelming. With a raise of its hand, vines filled the sky like Long Spears and Divine Swords, thrusting towards the three of them.
Yun Xi stepped forward, and in her hand, a butterfly had already appeared.
Fluttering its wings.
In an instant, it was as if the whole space was being torn apart; all the attacking vines were destroyed effortlessly, completely obliterated!
"No!"
The Vine Person screamed in horror, as though it had been struck by some force, and it split open, collapsing onto the ground!

The Sub-God Level Vine Person had been defeated in an instant!
"I’ll burn it!"
Zi Ling also spoke, her pen sweeping through the air!
The body of the Vine Person immediately caught fire.
"No! Ah... help... ah..."
The Vine Person screamed in agony.
"Huh? That’s odd, why is there a scent of fragrance..."
At this time, Yun Xi and the others looked at the Vine Person in surprise.
The burning body of the Vine Person was actually emitting a unique fragrance typical of wood.
Moreover, as it burned, smoke rising from the body of the Vine Person began to evolve into various divine runes, including the Qiong Qi, the Bi Fang, and other Divine Beasts, dancing and fading away.
"This Vine Person has absorbed the Dao principles of ancient powerhouses; its body can practically be considered a Dao body... Any random vine is a supreme treasure!"
Mu Wanqing’s expression shook with amazement!
The aptitude of this Vine Person was incredibly against the heavens. Possessing such a Dao body, it could likely achieve godhood!
Meanwhile, Zi Ling’s eyes also brightened as she said,
"Ah, I’ve heard from my master that some woods naturally have a unique fragrance, and if used to smoke cured meat or something, it’s really good!"
"It’d be such a waste to burn it all. I’m going to take some back. In the future, when we grill or smoke meat for the village, it’ll come in handy!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Xi also joyfully said,
"Yay! Zi Ling, quickly put out the fire."
Zi Ling immediately extinguished the Phoenix True Fire, and the two of them walked over to the Vine Person.
The Vine Person was already at death’s door, and at this moment, it looked at these girls with extreme fear in its eyes!
"Hm? These few branches smell the best when they’re burning!"
Yun Xi pointed at a few vines located at the Vine Person’s heart.
Those vines emitted a silvery-white luster, looking almost non-plantlike and more like metal.
"You, you hand over those firewood branches, or else, or else I’ll take you apart!"
Yun Xi spoke to the Vine Person.
Upon hearing this, the Vine Person was shocked.
You should know that the vines at the heart are where it had absorbed the condensed essence of the ancient powerhouses’ Dao principles.
For all Vine People, these were the most important Dao bones!
Now, these girls actually wanted to take them away?
It felt rage and utmost humiliation.
As a king among vines, when had it ever suffered such treatment!
"Ah, you don’t want to? I’ll take you apart."
Yun Xi had already rolled up her sleeves, revealing her fair arms, ready to get to work.
Because the Vine Person’s body was like it was formed from intertwining vines, to get a few branches of firewood from the heart one must disassemble the Vine Person first!
Upon hearing this, the Vine Person panicked instantly and hastily said,
"No, I’ll give, I’ll give them to you!"
Being at the mercy of others, it understood that if it didn’t give in, it would likely end up in a truly miserable state!
It shakily took out a few vine branches from its heart and handed them to Yun Xi.
Yun Xi took the vines but appeared a bit annoyed as she said,
"This bit of firewood is too little; it’s not even enough for grilling, let alone smoking meat."
Upon hearing this, the Vine Person’s mentality nearly collapsed.
What the hell...
Those were its Dao bones that had formed over thousands of years, precious beyond measure.
And they wanted to use them as firewood??
To grill? To smoke meat??
It was so angry that it wanted to spew blood!
"Otherwise, we should just disassemble you, hmm... the firewood is really not enough..."
Yun Xi spoke, although the firewood from other parts of the Vine Person’s body was far inferior to that from the heart, they had to make do with what was available due to the lack of quantity.
Upon hearing this, the Vine Person was thrown into a panic, even its voice was crying out,
"Don’t, please!"
"Miss, I beg you... that’s right, if you go further inside, I have many more Vine Person brethren. The quality of their firewood is better! If you gather them all, it will definitely be enough for smoking your meat!"
It had decided to make the sacrifice.
As long as it didn’t die, there was still a chance to regrow Dao bones!
Upon hearing the words, Yun Xi’s face lit up with joy and said,
"Really?"
"Zi Ling, Wanqing, let’s go, we should hurry, chop wood and chop wood, and later have Li Fan make us some barbecue!"
Zi Ling was also brimming with excitement.
As for Mu Wanqing, her feelings became even more complex. At that moment, she actually felt a tinge of sympathy for the immensely powerful Vine People in the Secret Realm!
Tragic, so tragic!
…
Not long after they had left,
the Zhan Family and Yun Family finally arrived at the location.
"Hmm? It looks like a battle took place here?"
"It seems rather fierce, the ground is scattered with broken vines!"
Everyone express their surprise.
At that moment, Yun Qin’s eyes shone with a glint of hope and excitement, as she looked around for... corpses!
"If that jade pendant is here, she would have been strangled by the vines, she definitely would have..."
She prayed to herself.
"Somebody has set off the traps, but that’s just as well. Let’s go!"
Zhan Shaoling remarked indifferently.
However, as they hadn’t walked much further, suddenly someone shouted:
"What’s that? A vine? A person?"
All eyes focused, only to see a humanoid vine amidst the tangled vines ahead!
It was indeed the Vine Person from whom Yun Xi and her companions had taken the Dao Bone.
The Vine Person had absorbed the power of countless vines around it and was now mostly restored.
Just as it got up and saw a group of humans, it couldn’t help but seethe with fury!
"You ants, I will kill you all!"
It gritted its teeth and with a wave of its hand, thousands of vine shadows shot out.
"Ah!"
In an instant, numerous people screamed in agony, wailing!
"No! Is this a Sub-God Level being?!"
Zhan Chonglei’s face turned pale as he said,
"We can’t stand against it. We need to run!"
Zhan Shaoling nodded in agreement, his expression darkened and he said,
"Distract it with the others. We’ll break through!"
Instantly, the elites of the Yun and Zhan families, bearing divine artifacts, no longer protected everyone, and fled forward!
But, at that moment, the Vine Person suddenly spotted Yun Qin!
This ant resembled the demon girl who had stolen its Dao Bone... incredibly similar!
Filled with towering rage, it launched itself viciously towards Yun Qin!
"If I can’t beat her, I refuse to believe I can’t beat you, despicable human, die!"
Its rage had no outlet, and now there was a woman who looked very much like the demon girl, a perfect target to vent on!
And Yun Qin, seeing the Vine Person furiously pounce, her pretty face turned white as she hurriedly fled!
But the Vine Person pursued her relentlessly, even some of the masters from the Yun and Zhan families who tried to intercept it were killed!
It was determinedly chasing after Yun Qin!
Yun Qin’s heart trembled with fear, she wanted to ask... why are you chasing me?
