Chapter 63 The Sky-Covering Tree
"Everyone be careful!"
Zhao Simo, who had the strongest perception, was the first to sense the danger. He pulled Liu Jianan's shoulder and protected him behind him.
Where Liu Jianan had been standing, a vine fell from the sky and hit the ground hard, leaving a deep mark.
It can be imagined that if it hit a person, it would be enough to tear the skin and flesh.
Liu Jianan also quickly activated his perception ability: "They are up there!"
Everyone looked up and almost had claustrophobia.
They saw dense vines lingering in the air. Under the cover of thick fog, no one could see their true length with the naked eye.
The vines seemed to realize that they had been discovered, and they threw all their attacks down with all their might, and the whip shadows covered the sky and the ground.
The thick fog became their best cover. People could not see where the vines' attacks came from, and could only passively dodge.
Zhao Tiezhu and Hu Deyi were even whipped, and they screamed in pain.
"Try grenades and rocket launchers!" Liu Jianan made a prompt decision.
Vines are plants, and it is natural for them to be afraid of fire.
They are also very flexible, and guns and ammunition may not be able to do anything to them.
Grenades and rocket launchers have a large attack range and strong lethality, and are most suitable for dealing with them.
Zhao Tiezhu and Hu Deyi followed Liu Jianan's advice, took out grenades and threw them into the air, and at the same time set up rocket launchers, ready to find an opportunity to launch.
The vines probably didn't know what a grenade was, and they whipped it without knowing the extent of the world.
The result is predictable.
The grenade exploded after being hit, and the heat generated by the explosion directly ignited the surrounding vines.
Even the surrounding fog was diluted by the shock generated by the grenade.
Tongues of fire spewed out, climbing up along the vines, sparks kept bursting, and bursts of "peeling" sounds were emitted.
The vines struggled and danced wildly in the flames.
However, they didn't know that the wind helped the fire. The more they swayed, the more vigorously the flames burned.
"It seems that there is no need to launch rockets." Hu Deyi muttered to himself.
The flames burned fiercely, and branches and leaves that were burned to ashes kept falling. Dark dust was scattered in the air, and then was swept away by the thick fog and disappeared without a trace.
These vines were as powerful as they were now.
Hu Jianye was watching with great interest, but suddenly he felt a little worried: "We are not going to set fire to the mountain, are we?" If you
set fire to the mountain, you will be sentenced to life imprisonment.
Everyone was shuddering. Zhang Yaoyao suggested, "How about I put out the fire?"
"No need," Xu Zhaoxin judged based on the humidity in the mist and the ground. "The mist is so thick. Once these fire vines are burned out, there will be no fuel to burn, and the fire will be stopped."
Liu Jianan believed Xu Zhaoxin's judgment, but he had new doubts in his mind.
Where did these vines come from? Are they part of the Heaven-Covering Tree? Or, in addition to the Heaven-Covering Tree, there are other difficult mutant plants in Hulu Mountain.
There is no way to know.
Even the Book of Supernatural Powers cannot describe everything.
He had seen the battle just now. It turned out that as long as there was no fog blocking them, they could easily deal with the vines. They
had to get rid of the fog as soon as possible.
"Sister Zhang, you should recover your superpowers first. I have a plan..."
Liu Jianan rechecked everyone's climbing ropes to make sure everything was safe, and then nodded to Zhang Wenqian: "Aunt Zhang, let's start."
Zhang Wenqian understood, and her superpowers flowed. In the blink of an eye, the little pig turned back into a wild boar.
"Go, Zhang Bao, run faster."
"Puff puff!"
Zhang Bao roared and rushed forward.
"Sister Zhang!"
Zhang Yaoyao received the order and used her superpowers to the extreme.
In an instant, the surrounding mist was sucked into Zhang Yaoyao's palm like a whale.
The water ball continued to expand, Zhang Yaoyao was sweating profusely, her supernatural power was rapidly consumed, and she could no longer hold on.
Finally, the water ball exploded, and she was also soaked.
Not bothering to clean the water stains on her body, she endured the dizziness brought by the overdraft of supernatural power and ran forward with all her strength.
Zhang Bao rushed to the front of the team and had stepped into the territory of the sky-covering tree without knowing when.
The leaves were like knives, whistling in with the sound of breaking through the air.
Zhang Bao rushed left and right against the dense attack of the sky-covering tree, attracting most of the firepower for everyone.
The speed of the wild boar was not slow.
However, it was so large that even with its quick reflexes, it was difficult to escape unscathed.
More and more leaves scratched its body, and blood flowed like a stream, which made Zhang Wenqian feel distressed.
After the mist was absorbed, everyone's vision became clear. The only problem was that there were too many trees in the mountains, and it was difficult to find the body of the Heaven-Covering Tree with the naked eye.
In order to find the Heaven-Covering Tree as soon as possible, Liu Jianan's plan was to let Zhang Bao attract the attack of the Heaven-Covering Tree. As long as the opponent showed the branches, he could find the body of the Heaven-Covering Tree through tracking supernatural powers.
Seeing that Zhang Bao was about to collapse, Liu Jianan didn't care about anything else and jumped behind Zhang Bao.
"An'an! Danger!"
"Boss!"
Just as Liu Jian'an jumped up, a leaf came straight at his face.
He quickly dodged to the side, but his face was cut by the sharp edge of the leaf, leaving a bright red scar.
Without caring about the wound, he lay on Zhang Bao and activated Siqin's healing ability.
Pure energy poured into the pig's body, and the wounds on its body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the speed was even faster.
The sky-covering tree probably didn't expect these ants to be so difficult to kill.
It was no longer just a test, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of leaves came in an instant.
"Aunt Zhang!"
Zhang Wenqian immediately summoned Zhang Bao again, and only a shadow remained at Zhang Bao's original position.
Liu Jianan rolled on the ground and narrowly avoided the attack of the Heaven-Covering Tree.
The place where they were just now was now buried by countless leaves. Each leaf was as hard as cast metal, standing upright, and shining with cold light.
The Heaven-Covering Tree could not bear it anymore, and it finally used its killing move.
Thick branches flew from a distance, and not only that, Liu Jianan also felt the roots shaking underground.
"Watch your feet, its roots are also one of its means of attack!" Zhao Simo reminded.
As soon as the words fell, countless spikes emerged from the ground, with extremely sharp tips. If you were stabbed by one, you would either die or be disabled.
Fortunately, everyone was reminded and was on guard against the spikes and dodged in time.
But no one expected that after the spikes sank into the ground, they would adjust their positions and attack them again!
The branches of the sky-covering tree were not idle either, and they would occasionally slap the crowd.
Liu Jianan and his men had to deal with the sudden attack of the spikes and avoid the sneak attacks from the branches in the air. They were really
caught in a dilemma. In the panic, many people were injured.
They could not keep dodging, they had to find a chance to counterattack, otherwise when the thick fog gathered again, the opportunity they had worked so hard to get would be wasted!
