Chapter 210 Chapter 212 Treasure Cave

What on earth is this withered vine? Even a treasure like the Ruyi Wheel can't cut this withered vine, this thing must be extraordinary, Ning Qingyun became more interested in it.

When Ning Qingyun was trying to find a way to cut off the dead vine, he suddenly felt uneasy, as if something bad was going to happen.

At the critical moment, Ning Qingyun suddenly had an idea and tentatively sent a trace of spiritual energy to the Ruyi Wheel. The spiritual energy in his body had annihilation characteristics. If too much spiritual energy was input at one time, the treasure might be damaged. The withered vine made a "buzzing" sound, as if it was angry, and shook violently. At the same time, a rumbling sound came from the ground, as if some mechanism was activated.

Since he couldn't cut the vine, he had to pick the fruits. Ning Qingyun continued to use the Ruyi Wheel as a blanket to catch the bunch of fruits, and the other Ruyi Wheel quickly cut towards the place where the fruit was connected to the dead vine. This time Ning Qingyun used more spiritual energy, and "bang" the fruit fell on the Ruyi Wheel. Ning Qingyun quickly picked up the fruit, retracted his weapon, and quickly returned along the way.

Hearing the unusual noises underground, Ning Qingyun became anxious and ran very fast. He was in poor physical condition at the moment and did not dare to take risks easily. He thought it was best to run away. He quickly returned to the raft. Under the raft, the side where the mud was originally thin had sunk deeply into the mud, and the other end was raised high. At this moment, a large whirlpool seemed to have formed around the stone statues, and the mud was constantly sinking, as if it would swallow everything.

Seeing this situation, Ning Qingyun had no time to think. He almost instinctively jumped up and stepped on the raised raft like a dragonfly skimming the water. He used the force to flip in the air and jumped out of the mud whirlpool. The raft had been swallowed up by the mud whirlpool silently.

Ning Qingyun landed safely, but before he could rejoice, he heard a rumbling sound behind him. He turned his head and saw that the mud vortex seemed to have silently entered acceleration mode and was spreading towards this side at a rapid speed. In the blink of an eye, Ning Qingyun felt his calves had sunk into the mud.

Ning Qingyun swung out the Ruyi Wheel with all his strength and hooked it on the area in front that had not yet been eroded by the mud vortex. He pulled out his legs with all his strength, pulled the chain tight and moved forward with difficulty like climbing a rock. Soon, the place where the Ruyi Wheel hooked became soft, and Ning Qingyun threw another Ruyi Wheel forward. On the brink of crisis, people can often burst out with enormous potential. In such a difficult situation, Ning Qingyun seemed to be racing with death. He threw his weapon with one hand at a rapid speed and flipped his body in the air. Before his feet touched the ground, he threw out another weapon with the other hand. The chain gently pulled him up and his toes stepped in the air, doing another somersault. With the assistance of the Ruyi Double Rings (Ruyi Wheel), Ning Qingyun did dozens of somersaults in the air. Several times, his nose brushed against the mud and he was about to fall headfirst into the mud. Fortunately, Ning Qingyun was born with supernatural powers and loved fitness. He had excellent physical fitness, so he escaped danger several times and moved forward at a flying speed.

But Ning Qingyun's body was not made of iron. The rapid progress made Ning Qingyun's chest almost explode. His breathing became rapid, and the strength of his limbs and waist and abdomen was almost exhausted. Finally, he stepped on empty air, and his feet sank into the quagmire, which soon reached his knees. Ning Qingyun tried his best to relax his body and did not dare to exert force, because he knew that the more he struggled in the quagmire, the faster he would sink. Ning Qingyun looked around carefully. Fortunately, the speed of the quagmire vortex had slowed down.

Tian Zhen and others also saw the situation here from afar, and the three of them hurried over here.

"Don't get too close, it's dangerous here. I'll throw out the rope later, Tian Zhen, you guys get ready to catch them." Ning Qingyun shouted immediately when he saw Tian Zhen and Yang Ping were about to walk over here.

Just now, the nine-headed monster snake fled in panic. The area of the quagmire in the central area has been shrinking slowly. When he cut the dead vine just now, he triggered some mechanism that caused the quagmire whirlpool to appear. Tian Zhen and the others did not understand the situation and came here rashly. If they got trapped in it, they would be in trouble.

Ning Qingyun relied on two Ruyi Wheels to fly such a long distance and was already exhausted. He had been relying on his willpower to hold on. Now when he saw Tian Zhen and the others, he breathed a sigh of relief. His legs felt heavy as if they were filled with lead. He threw out the rope with force, and Tian Zhen and Yang Ping worked together to drag Ning Qingyun out.

After making sure that the area of the quagmire vortex was no longer expanding, Ning Qingyun carefully checked the bunch of fruits he had picked. The fruits were intact and not damaged. The fruits were not large, about the size of sweet apricots, and shaped like pomegranates that were about to open but had not yet opened, with round bellies and looked very full. Ning Qingyun put them away with some satisfaction.

There is a treasure cave at the top floor of Ning Qingyun's tree hole maze. In it are all the roots, stems, fruits or seeds of various strange plants, peculiar minerals, strange stones, beautiful gems, and even beautiful feathers and soft animal skins that Ning Qingyun thinks are valuable. He collected them all. Those things are the gifts he prepared for Rong Xianxian. I wonder if Xianxian will like them?

The fruit of this dead vine will also become one of them. Ning Qingyun touched the fruit with a smile on her face. Maybe Xianxian will be able to grow that kind of dead vine in the future. She likes to grow things, and she can grow anything.

There are four people in the group, none of them are in good fighting condition, only Tian Zhen still retains the strength to fight. Several people need to rest and adjust, but this place is no longer safe and they should not stay here any longer.

"Wang Yang, how do you feel?" Ning Qingyun asked after taking a deep breath.

"I'm fine. I should be able to walk on my own." Wang Yang said with all his strength.

Although the snake venom had been cured, the damage it caused in his body was not so easily recovered. After recuperating for a long time, he could only barely stand up.

"Then come with me! I met Zhang Shouyi before, and he is with me now." Ning Qingyun said.

"Really? He ran away from us and we were so worried." Tian Zhen slapped his thigh excitedly and shouted.

Wang Yang and Yang Ping also showed delight on their faces.

"Boss, we have to go and retrieve our luggage first. We were attacked by a strange snake before, and in a hurry we threw the luggage into the grass over there!" Wang Yang said, pointing to the grass not far away.

"You guys wait here, I'll be back soon." Tian Zhen took on the task without hesitation.

"Boss, Dr. Chai asked me to tell you privately that Tian Zhen reacted strongly to Yunshan's rebellion and might be from Yunshan's faction." Wang Yang said to Ning Qingyun in a weak voice.
