The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 1763 - 1760: Great Ruins Demon Vine
Ye Xuan retracted his gaze, observing the surroundings.
The shrubs around were dense, but fortunately, they weren’t tall and did not obstruct the view.
The place where Ye Xuan stood was just a small clearing in the midst of the shrubs.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Several light sounds echoed, and three figures appeared in succession.
It was Qiankun Ancestor, Tong Wuji, and Tushan Chen who came in.
The three landed not far from Ye Xuan.
They were all examining the surroundings.
Rumble————
At that moment, vines suddenly shot up into the sky from the shrubs around.
From all directions, blocking the sky and sun.
"Great Ruins Demon Vine."
Ye Xuan murmured softly.
Great Ruins Demon Vine, a kind of plant in the Great Ruins.
Strictly speaking, it’s a fierce creature because they strangle living beings and drain all their essence blood.
Those unfamiliar with this place wouldn’t even know how they died.
Tong Wuji gripped the Black Sky Blade and executed a Crescent Moon Slash.
The blade light instantly swept out, cutting all the Great Ruins Demon Vines in all directions.
But before he could retract his blade, the severed Great Ruins Demon Vines aggressively regenerated.
Not only did they not diminish, they doubled instead!
Tong Wuji’s eyes slightly darkened and he was about to strike again.
Ye Xuan raised his hand to signal Tong Wuji to refrain from attacking further.
Tushan Chen, however, didn’t think much, flicking a finger, and terrifying force instantly infiltrated all the Great Ruins Demon Vines, causing them to explode into powder from within.
"What are you doing?"
Qiankun Ancestor’s old face sank, shouting lowly.
Tushan Chen said blankly, "Clearing these Demon Vines?"
"Clear my foot!"
Qiankun Ancestor cursed lowly and stomped hard.
Rumble————
It seemed something terrifying was about to emerge from beneath the earth, creating an earthquake.
"Let’s go first."
Ye Xuan lightly tapped his toes and soared into the sky, rushing towards the depths of the Great Ruins.
Tong Wuji and Tushan Chen quickly followed.
Not forgetting to look back along the way.
Upon seeing the terrifying sight, the pupils of both couldn’t help but shrink abruptly.
It was seen that the Great Ruins Demon Vines, which had been shattered into powder by Tushan Chen, had all regenerated and multiplied by billions of times!
The place they stood earlier, all the shrubs were squeezed out of existence, leaving only endless Great Ruins Demon Vines growing, winding towards Qiankun Ancestor.
Tong Wuji couldn’t help but take a sharp breath; these Great Ruins Demon Vines were incredibly persistent.
"These Great Ruins Demon Vines cannot be killed?!"
Tushan Chen was also shocked.
Ye Xuan said without turning, "They must be sealed before they fully grow, or else it’s endless trouble, as is the case now."
He stopped Tong Wuji from continuing to act to prevent such an accident.
But Tushan Chen acted on his own, turning these Great Ruins Demon Vines into powder.
Yet, every particle of powder could regenerate the Great Ruins Demon Vines and multiply thereafter.
In such a situation, even if Qiankun Ancestor acted, he might not be able to kill them, only buying time for their escape.
When Ye Xuan first entered the Great Ruins, he was troubled by these Great Ruins Demon Vines, trapped for a full three years.
It was only then that Ye Xuan had an Undying Body, otherwise, he would have been drained into a husk.
Later, Ye Xuan also found a way to deal with these Great Ruins Demon Vines, which was to use fire.
Burn them to ashes with fire, then cover the ashes with water, sealing them with freezing.
In this way, the Great Ruins Demon Vines would become dormant and temporarily die.
As for truly killing these Great Ruins Demon Vines.
That’s basically impossible.
Unless the Demon Vine Ancestor Root of the Great Ruins Demon Vines is found and destroyed.
But that’s not feasible. When Ye Xuan found the Demon Vine Ancestor Root, he first used the above method on it, but that root was different from ordinary Great Ruins Demon Vines and couldn’t be sealed.
Eventually, Ye Xuan was sealed by the Ancestor Root for over a hundred years.
The final result was that the Ancestor Root became annoyed by Ye Xuan and released him.
It’s known that the Great Ruins Demon Vines can devour the essence blood of all living creatures, and the Ancestor Root is incredibly terrifying.
But the Ancestor Root trapped Ye Xuan and absorbed for a hundred years, yet didn’t get even a fart.
In the end, the Ancestor Root had to release Ye Xuan.
Upon knowing this result, Ye Xuan was also a bit speechless, and every time he came to the Great Ruins afterward, he would mess with the Demon Vine Ancestor Root.
But the Great Ruins Demon Vines have no consciousness, acting entirely on instinct.
Or it might be said, it is the Forbidden Power of the Great Ruins that grants them such power.
"It’s all my fault..."
Tushan Chen showed a look of guilt.
His intention was to eradicate these Great Ruins Demon Vines, but he didn’t expect to create such trouble.
"It’s fine."
Ye Xuan didn’t intend to blame, although the Great Ruins Demon Vines were terrifying, they couldn’t do anything to Little Qiankun.
After all, Little Qiankun isn’t human and doesn’t have essence blood for the Demon Vines to absorb.
Even the Ancestor Root can only stare helplessly.
Soon, the trio distanced themselves from the Great Ruins Demon Vines.
Looking back, they could still see the sky full of flames, which was Qiankun Ancestor performing the Fire Skill, continuing to battle the Demon Vines.
Tushan Chen, seeing this scene, felt even more guilty.
He didn’t expect to get into such a mess shortly after following Emperor Ye, making his conscience uneasy.
Ye Xuan, however, did not look back, because he knew Little Qiankun was fine.
In the distance, vast mountains stretched out, where giant peaks pierced the sky, ancient serpents coiled atop them, becoming one with the mountains, raising heads to absorb Sun and Moon Essence.
Even farther, dark demonic shadows danced, exuding an extremely terrifying oppressive feeling.
Among which were giant beings like from the Giant Spirit Clan, shouldering towering trees, walking towards the depths of the Great Ruins, with unknown intentions.
Not far away, a primordial giant crocodile, its body like silver, was fighting a pure gold centipede.
This is the Great Ruins.
An ancient Forbidden Land.
The creatures living within it are ancient and powerful, but none have transformed, retaining only the most instinctual awareness.
For instance, the serpent coiling atop the giant mountain emits an aura comparable to the Great Sage Realm, yet neither transformed nor had Divine Sense, failing to notice the trio.
"They say all thirty-six on the Mystic Yellow List entered this place; I wonder if it’s true."
Tong Wuji was also surveying the surroundings, speaking softly.
The thirty-six on the Mystic Yellow List.
Are the most dazzling prodigies and anomalies of the Xuanhuang Great World.
This time, with the opening of the Great Ruins, there were rumors that all anomalies from the Mystic Yellow List entered the Great Ruins.
Seeing the environment of the Great Ruins, Tong Wuji couldn’t help but marvel at their courage.
But it should be fine, for these anomalies, naturally have masters guarding their sides.
In the Great Ruins, Heavenly Dao Suppression doesn’t exist. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
It’s likely those anomalies have some old monsters accompanying them.
