The person trapped by the tree demon was a disciple of Baiyin Valley, and Qi Fangyu came here by chance. Seeing Jiang Qingle and two disciples facing off against the enemy, he wanted to help save the beautiful girl.
However, the tree demon has lived for tens of thousands of years, and his cultivation level is comparable to that of a monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul. Every vine has the power of the foundation building stage.
There are at least hundreds of tree demons, and they will grow back quickly if they are broken. In the long run, even if there are many people, they will be really tired of dealing with them.
Tong Yan didn't want to experience the power of the branches, especially when there were thorns several inches long on them. She would feel pain just thinking about it if she casually scratched a bloody hole on her body.
She held the Long Yue Sword and slashed left and right, but as soon as she cut off one, it immediately grew back. This move only treated the symptoms but not the root cause.
The tree branch passed through the air by her face, and its momentum was very fierce. She rushed to Huo Qizhi and said to him as if thinking, "Tell me, this big tree has so many canes, why doesn't it tie knots?"
Huo Qizhi felt that her words had some profound meaning, perhaps about how to deal with the tree demon, but he had no idea at the moment and could only reply, "I don't know either."
There are only three main vines of the Dryad. They seem to be many on the periphery, but they are all divided by these three branches.
Most of the branches are short, and they are used more for defensive turning and protecting the trunk, while the roots are used for trapping.
In other words, the dryad's main attack method is actually the vines that keep growing out and covering the sky.
If this problem is solved, the dryads will be much easier to deal with.
Not getting any constructive advice from Huo Qizhi, Tong Yan circled the tree and came to Shen Zhuangheng's side.
Tong Yan asked him: "Can you burn all these vines with karma fire, or make them unable to grow back after they are broken?"
Shen Zhuangheng said to her very regretfully, "No, the fire of karma can only burn slower."
After listening to Shen Zhuangheng's words, Tong Yan walked away again with a frown on his face. Because he was thinking about things in his mind, there was inevitably something he couldn't take care of. A cane as thick as an arm was pulled out, and his back hurt, and he was whipped away.
Far away.
When Shen Zhuangheng saw it, it was too late and he could only rush to block other attacks.
"What are you thinking about? Don't you know the danger?" Shen Zhuangheng's words were slightly scolding, but his eyes were full of concern.
There is no greater love and deeper responsibility than this.
Tong Yan touched his nose, smiled, and then clenched his fist at the tree demon, "When I come up with a solution later, it will know who is the father!"
Shen Zhuangheng looked at the sky helplessly and touched her head. She was such a good sister. She had only been separated from him for three years, but she was so skinny.
Finally, he warned, "Be careful."
Then, go up and fight again.
Tong Yan came to Huo Qizhi again. He was protected by giant talismans and could remotely control other talismans to fight. When he saw her coming, he asked, "Were you injured just now? If the injury is serious, you should adjust your breathing first.
There is me here."
Tong Yan looked at his giant talisman thoughtfully and replied casually, "It's a small problem, nothing serious."
At this moment, she regretted not collecting some iron spider silk. It was very sticky and might come in handy.
After thinking for a moment, Tong Yan decided to test his idea on a small scale. When a vine was swung towards him, he cut it with a sword, took the broken half, wrapped it around another nearby one, and then pulled it through the gap in the vine.
Pass through.
After circling a few times, the cane was finally knotted. To prevent it from falling apart, she took out a flying sword and pierced it with the sword to tie it firmly.
After it was completed, Tong Yan was about to see the effect when suddenly a sword light flew from the side, and the knot was instantly broken up.
The rebound force of several canes hit Tong Yan, knocking him several meters away and spurting out a mouthful of blood.
Tong Yan resisted the urge to spit out the fragrance and looked over there angrily.
It turned out that a Daotian Sect disciple was too focused on fighting. He suddenly saw a bunch of rattan ropes entwined next to him and subconsciously chopped it down. This happened to her.
Seeing that his actions seemed to have accidentally hurt someone, the disciple hurriedly apologized to Tong Yan, "I'm sorry, I didn't notice you were behind me."
"Next time...be careful!" Tong Yan said with a forced smile, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't mean it...
The man saw that her smile was forced and said slightly embarrassed, "I will pay attention to it next time."
Then he came to her side and asked doubtfully, "What were you doing just now?"
Tong Yan recovered on the spot and explained, "Cut the knot, do you want to come with me? I guarantee it will be easier than cutting the cane with you."
The man looked at her in disbelief, "Really?"
“You’ll know if you try it!”
Tong Yan led Qi Wen, the man who cut the canes, around the back of the tree and began to control the number of canes in a small area.
After a while, Qi Wen covered the wound on his forehead and complained to Tong Yan, "I'm tired, but you didn't tell me that it doesn't hurt!"
Tong Yan shrugged innocently. She really didn't feel any pain.
Oh, I forgot that I have half a copper skin and an iron frame.
In this regard, she could only express her spiritual condolences to Qi Wen, patted his shoulder and said, "Come on! You are the fattest!"
Qi Wen: I feel like there's something wrong with what she said, but I don't know what's wrong...
At this time, a deep voice suddenly came out from the side, "What are you doing hiding here?"
Tong Yan looked back slightly frightened, and it turned out to be Huo Qizhi. His face was a little gloomy, perhaps because he was in a tough fight.
"Look at these." Tong Yan pointed to the cane that could not attack people after being knotted. He raised his eyebrows and said slightly proudly: "Do you know what to do next, huh?"
Huo Qizhi had long seen the knots formed by these canes, and then he realized that what Tong Yan said before about tying knots turned out to be this.
He gave Tong Yan a thumbs up in praise, "Master is smart!"
"So-so." Tong Yan pretended to be modest, and then urged, "Quick, hurry up and solve it."
The movement of three people is naturally faster than that of two people, and the talisman controlled by Huo Qizhi can turn into silk threads to entangle and guide them. It is much safer than running among the rattan before.
Shen Zhuangheng also paid attention to the situation here from time to time. When he saw this, he was immediately inspired and alerted Jiang Qingle who was nearby.
Jiang Qingle looked doubtfully in the direction of Tong Yan and the others, and saw that the vines over there were entangled in countless knots, and the knots were fixed by a branch, making it impossible to attack anymore.
The vines that were growing continuously were restricted because the tree demon itself could not untie the knots.
Jiang Qingle's fair and slender fingers rested on the strings for a moment, and suddenly her fingertips slipped on them, and three strings flew out and flew towards the surrounding vines.
As soon as the strings get closer, they immediately extend and expand indefinitely, forming an overwhelming web like a spider web, with some parts wrapped in rattan and some occupying the extra space.
This string is made from the tendons of a thousand-mile dragon, and its toughness and strength are unmatched by those of a mere vine.
Therefore, after the rattan, which had been arrogant just now, was entangled in a mess, it could neither break free nor move, and could only squirm in place.
Other monks also saw this movement and immediately used various methods to control the cane.
At this moment, Tong Yan was asking Huo Qizhi to pick up the giant talisman and use it.
Huo Qizhi: "Yes, yes, you can tell me what you want to do first."
This talisman is biased toward defense, and Tong Yan knows this, so she is probably doing something dangerous if she borrows it.
Tong Yan pointed to the faint green light somewhere on the big tree trunk, "That should be the crystal core of this tree demon. I'm going to go over and stab it."
