Cultivate, Sign In, And Be Rewarded Handsomely

Chapter 105: Terrifying Thing

The scene was very chaotic. In front of these vines, human martial artists became insignificant. These vines in the forest were the true experts. This was because it had thousands of clones that could trap countless martial artists. Moreover, the blood and flesh of these martial artists would provide it with endless nutrients.

Before long, these dozens of martial artists would probably be devoured by the vines. Perhaps Black Iron and North Star would not be able to escape either. After all, this was the vine’s territory in the forest. Here, it was its nest. It had the geographical advantage here and was the strongest existence.

Black Iron was already black to begin with. At this moment, his expression turned even darker. He never expected that the spiritual energy recovery brought about by the blood rain would cause plants to change even more than humans.

They could not save so many martial artists. Moreover, his legs were already entangled. This made him feel a trace of despair.

What the hell was this?

If he did not make a prompt decision, he would probably die here. Therefore, he immediately shouted at North Star. “Go back to the camp. I’ll stay here and save myself!”

Black Iron did not want everyone to die here. He said that he wanted to save himself, but he just wanted to delay it until the strongest reinforcements brought by North Star arrived.

There were many martial artists in General Qin Feng’s army.

If those people came, they might be able to completely destroy this vine with their numbers. This thing had simply become a spirit.

“No, if we’re going to die, let’s die together. Perhaps we can still be saved! God, please save us…” At this moment, North Star was overjoyed to see Li Yuanqing and shouted for the gods to save him. Because in his eyes, Li Yuanqing was really a mighty figure.

To be able to make a demon flee after hearing his name, this person who made him unable to see through his realm reminded him of a rumor. And it was a rumor that came from the Imperial City.

The guardian of the Northern Kingdom was a Human God, and that Human God was said to be Li Yuanqing.

North Star had already treated Li Yuanqing as his only hope now.

As soon as North Star shouted, the martial artists trapped there also saw Li Yuanqing. For a moment, they seemed to have seen their savior and struggled with all their might. Some of them were still shouting.

“Help me, help me!”

Li Yuanqing looked at these extremely miserable people. Just as he was about to swing the Demon Slayer Sword to kill these vines, he suddenly felt the Man-eating Vine at the foot of the Yufu Mountain move.

The man-eating vine was not very big, but it had the ability to devour. Once it touched the ground of the forest, it began to take root and wrap around the nearest vine.

Soon, the vine that it had wrapped around turned yellow and lifeless.

That was not all. The withered vines kept spreading. After spreading for a few hundred meters, the roots of the vines seemed to have been severely injured and kept twisting their bodies. Then, it shook off the withered vine. It was as if its tentacles had been cut off. It kept twisting, wrapping around the other martial artists even tighter, wanting to absorb nutrients from them.

The man-eating vine seemed to have grown a little bigger and quickly wrapped around another vine. This vine also began to wither rapidly. It was originally binding a martial artist, but at this moment, it loosened. The martial artist landed heavily on the ground and looked at the vine that had instantly withered on his body with a dumbfounded expression.

There was a look of disbelief on his face as he looked at Li Yuanqing, who was standing there without moving.

A sense of reverence arose in their hearts. There were so many of them, but they were all bound by these vines. It was useless even if they tried to use fire and knives to cut them. Instead, there were more and more vines, and they were getting tighter and tighter. In the end, they were all trapped, and their companions were swallowed by the vines. All of them had become its nutrients.

When he was bound by the vines, he had also struggled and tried his best. When he thought about how he would only die in the end and die so aggrievedly, he felt endless despair. He only felt that he was too unlucky. How could he have encountered such a plant? It had become a spirit!

However, such a powerful plant was like snow meeting the sun when facing Li Yuanqing. It melted instantly.

It was too amazing. It was really too amazing.

The Man-eating Vine quickly moved again. One martial artist after another was saved by it.

Black Iron and North Star were overjoyed. They also increased their speed and slashed at the vines, hoping to save their companions quickly.

Soon, the vines could not hold on any longer. The tens of thousands of branches that were originally extending out hurriedly retracted. Even the martial artists, who were originally tied up to become nutrients, were let go one by one. It felt that it had encountered a powerful enemy.

The Man-eating Vine was getting thicker and thicker. It had already grown to seven to eight meters long from less than two meters long. Although it was not worth mentioning compared to the huge creature entrenched in the forest, this Man-eating Vine seemed to be the nemesis of these vines. It kept devouring them like it was eating noodles. One by one, it devoured the roots that grew outside.

Withered branches began to appear in the forest. Then, under those leaves, there were eerie white bones. Many people or animals had died under these vines these days.

“Thank you, God, for saving us!” North Star led a group of people and thanked Li Yuanqing profusely.

Those people also felt a lingering fear after surviving a calamity. The spiritual energy had recovered after the blood rain. They did not expect that the mutation of plants was even more terrifying than humans.

The martial artists who reacted also began to counterattack, but their counterattack speed was not fast enough. This was because as the Man-eating Vine continuously devoured its nutrients, the Man-eating Vine began to thicken.

It was getting thicker and thicker, twice as big as it was at the beginning. Furthermore, it was devouring faster than anyone could imagine. In a few breaths, the originally incomparably ferocious vines, which were huge in the eyes of all the martial artists, were like paper tigers that had been pierced through and revealed.

The vines that covered a few acres of land were all devoured by the Man-eating Vine. Even the roots hidden under the vines were dug out. When the Man-eating Vine burrowed into the ground, it touched a huge white rock that weighed tens of thousands of kilograms. The roots of the vines were coiled on the white rock.

This white rock was actually the spirit stone that had appeared in this world at the beginning. It was the blood rain that tainted this stone and coincidentally turned into a spirit stone.

The reason why the vines mutated so quickly was because of this large spirit stone.

This was a supreme treasure.

North Star and the others also knew that this huge rock that had suddenly appeared was extraordinary by its appearance. However, at this moment, they could only look at it enviously. They looked at Li Yuanqing and he called out. The Man-eating Vine that was hugging the huge rock suddenly disappeared in front of everyone.

This move made everyone present extremely envious. This was really an immortal method.

No wonder people were called Human Gods after they broke through to the Spirit Transformation realm. This was because ordinary martial artists, even Martial Saints, do not have such methods.

Only a Human God could do this.

Li Yuanqing disappeared under everyone’s kneels. He left the forest with the Man-eating Vine. The Man-eating Vine appeared in Li Yuanqing’s domain with the huge spirit stone.

In his current domain, there was a Yufu Mountain. There was a large piece of land at the foot of the mountain. There was a man-eating vine in the land, and beside the man-eating vine was a spirit stone that weighed more than ten thousand kilograms.

This spirit stone was snow-white in color, and there were obvious spiritual energy fluctuations inside. Most importantly, not only was this spiritual energy overflowing, but it also made Li Yuanqing’s domain clearly richer than other places. Even ordinary people could tell that this spirit stone was extraordinary, let alone Li Yuanqing. He was slightly delighted.

He did not expect that the Man-eating Vine that he had signed in would give him an unexpected surprise.

This Man-eating Vine was really a good thing.

Fortunately, the spirit stone was placed in Li Yuanqing’s domain. Li Yuanqing felt that it was best to fuse and expand this domain.

This time, his target was the catacombs.

However, before going to the catacombs, Li Yuanqing felt that he should take a walk in the Land of War. After all, the forest and mutated vines here had brought him huge benefits.

Li Yuanqing planned to see if there was a similar place. After all, this place was the closest to the catacombs. Moreover, there had been a huge change during the blood rain. Most importantly, there was still a thousand miles to go.

Therefore, Li Yuanqing did not choose to quickly pass through the chaotic Land of War. Instead, he planned to walk thousands of kilometers with his feet.

He was already at the Spirit Transformation realm and was also a Human God. He was almost invincible in the Northern Kingdom.

The only things that could threaten him or interest him were the mutated vicious beasts or plants after the blood rain. If not, he wanted to see if he could sign in for any rewards in different places.

He walked forward step by step. There were almost no roads in this Land of War. Even if there were roads, they were quickly covered by the wild weeds. However, the martial artists of the Northern Kingdom were also very smart. They made road signs on some big trees or some obvious buildings. This way, people who walked in the Land of War would not get lost.

When it was almost noon, Li Yuanqing looked up at the sun in the sky. It was a little hot. He planned to find a place to rest. After scanning his surroundings, he saw a house built with stones in the distance.

Those stone houses were only faintly discernible, revealing only a roof because of the weeds and dense trees. If one did not pay attention, they would not be able to see clearly. There was once a village here, and it had been inhabited.

When Li Yuanqing arrived at the village, he realized that it was very big. There was actually a stone path, and there were many stone houses on both sides of the path. There were hundreds of families, and it could be considered a relatively large village.

Li Yuanqing quickly found a stone house that did not look old. He walked up and saw that there were tables, chairs, beds, and even a pot and stove. There were traces of fire in the stove. Someone must have lived here not long ago. Li Yuanqing did not mind and found a place to sit down and rest.

Hu Jiujiu, who had been sitting on his shoulder, jumped down and quickly jumped out of the stone house. Usually, Hu Jiujiu would be the one looking for food. Sometimes, she would even deliberately go and have fun.

Li Yuanqing did not stop her.

The afternoon sun was very hot. Li Yuanqing drank some water and suddenly felt that his surroundings were extremely quiet.

Under normal circumstances, even if there was no one around, there would still be the sounds of birds and insects chirping in such an abandoned village. There would even be the sounds of cicadas or the howls of various wild beasts or vicious beasts.

But there was nothing here. There was no sound at all.

The silence was alarming.

Li Yuanqing released the Man-eating Vine as a sentry. When he threw it out of his domain, it was only a meter tall. However, after it landed, it took root outside the stone house with a whoosh.

Then, the man-eating vine began to climb up. In just a few breaths, the man-eating vine occupied most of the stone house.

Only then did the Man-eating Vine behind stop. It was as if it had fused with the stone house, making it impossible for anyone to see anything unusual. This characteristic of the Man-eating Vine allowed Li Yuanqing to make full use of it. It could allow the Man-eating Vine to be a sentry. The effect should be quite good.

After releasing the Man-eating Vine, Li Yuanqing rested without thinking about anything. However, after he had dozed off and cultivated until it was almost dark, he still hadn’t seen Hu Jiujiu return. He felt a little uneasy.

He stood up and sensed the location of the inner demon seed. Soon, he realized that Hu Jiujiu was not far from his location.

Li Yuanqing did not take it to heart. He only sent a signal to Hu Jiujiu to rush over as soon as possible. However, after the sky turned dark for a long time, Hu Jiujiu returned like a bolt of lightning and rushed into the stone house. She was extremely terrified.

“What happened?” Li Yuanqing opened his eyes and saw Hu Jiujiu gesturing and squeaking non-stop. Li Yuanqing, who was connected to it, immediately understood what Hu Jiujiu meant.

What it meant was that it was very dangerous outside. There were many terrifying things everywhere.

“Stand behind me. I want to see what else scares you.” Li Yuanqing lowered his voice and gestured for Hu Jiujiu to stand behind him. He walked out of the stone house. He closed his eyes and used his divine sense to sense the changes in the world.

This was also an ability he had obtained after becoming a Human God. As long as he calmed down, he could sense things that others could not see or abnormalities happening in a distant place.

This was also why Spirit Transformation cultivators were called Human Gods.

The man-eating vines that were crawling in front of the stone house suddenly began to twist. Its leaves began to tremble uncontrollably, looking a little abnormal. Li Yuanqing also noticed the abnormality in the distance.

This village was beginning to be surrounded by something. There were so many of them that it made one’s scalp tingle.

And these things should be the reason for Hu Jiujiu’s fear. In the dark night, these things emitted flickering lights. There were too many of them. When the lights gathered together, they looked even more than the stars in the sky.

“After the blood rain, the spiritual energy recovered. It seems that there are not only plants and vines that have mutated, but also this thing…”

Li Yuanqing could not help but sigh when he saw the scene before him.
