The sound of the vines growing was tooth-grinding, like the crackling sound of a bronze sword scraping against oracle bones. In the blink of an eye, they were woven into an arch bridge - twelve main vines were spirally intertwined, and the raised thorns on the surface were glowing, like sleeping dragon scales suddenly awakened by the moonlight.

The ice on the bridge surface is not transparent, but a chaotic mass mixed with golden and green silk fibers. When you step on it, it will cause water-like ripples.

The vines trapped in the ice were still slowly wriggling, making the entire bridge look like some giant deep-sea creature breathing.

The spear on the scorched earth on the opposite bank suddenly emitted a high-frequency buzzing sound, and the metal fragments that had peeled off the spear body floated up and pieced together to form a broken phoenix totem, and every feather was oozing blood.

"Count to seven."

Ma Tuan's back teeth were clenched too tightly, and the sound squeezed out from between his teeth had a rusty taste.

"The bridge absorbs footsteps."

What he didn't say was that the green light flowing under the ice was doubly draining his mental image - the cold wind blew over the glacier, and the range of the emerald-gold vines crawling was obviously not as wide as before. The mental power that was drawn out now turned into fleeting cracks on the bridge.

"you……"

Blore was a little worried.

But Bai Di stopped him and shook his head.

Among the three of them, Ma Tuan has the highest mental power, and he is the only one who can use such a large amount of mental power now.

Instead of worrying about him, it would be better for the two of them to run faster to reduce the pressure.

However, just as Blore's boot soles touched the bridge head, the entire building seemed to be suppressed by a huge force and suddenly sank down a full three inches!

Along with this violent vibration, dense Sanskrit characters suddenly appeared on the ice surface. These Sanskrit characters were like countless black ants, intertwined together to form a strange and terrifying curse web.

At the same time, the originally calm sea of ​​blood seemed to be ignited and began to boil, with blood waves rolling as if to swallow everything.

Fortunately, the three of them were very agile and they quickly stepped onto the scorched earth. But just as their feet left the bridge, the bridge seemed to have lost its support and collapsed, leaving only a few points of bright light flickering in the air.

Blore finally got a good look at the creature impaled by the spear.

It was lying there quietly, lifeless, but at this moment, it suddenly twitched as if touched by something.

Then—dozens of painful human faces appeared under its skin!

The expressions on these faces were distorted and hideous, as if they were enduring great pain.

When Bai Di took a step forward unconsciously, those faces seemed to sense his presence and turned to him at the same time, with the corners of their mouths pulling up a completely identical weird smile.

The malice and madness revealed in that smile made people shudder.

What made him most uneasy was that Ma Tuan suddenly discovered that lines that matched the cave wall had appeared on his palms. These lines seemed to have life, spreading towards his arms at a speed visible to the naked eye...
