Lin Yu swiftly swung his sword, colliding with the vines.
As if that wasn't enough, Lin Yu condensed sword energy into a phantom longsword in his other hand and used it to slash at the vines.
Lin Yu wasn't worried about mana consumption, since he could quickly recover it here.
"Swish swish swish!" One by one, the vines snapped and fell to the ground. No matter how wildly they danced, they couldn't harm Lin Yu in the slightest.
Lin Yu suddenly realized something was wrong. The opponent had a spirit level of 90, so their intelligence should be quite high. Knowing that I could easily break through their defense, they still sent vines over for me to cut.
Lin Yu became increasingly vigilant.
As more and more vines fell to the ground, the purple mist gradually stopped churning, and the vines began to retract, as if they had become docile after being severely beaten by society.
Most people would have let their guard down at this point, but Lin Yu did not.
One by one, vines creeped silently along the ground, taking cover from the broken vines scattered on the ground, like venomous snakes lurking in the shadows, ready to deliver a fatal blow to their prey.
Soon, they launched a fierce attack, quickly wrapping around Lin Yu's legs.
The Purple Gold Vine had a clear objective: to first sever Lin Yu's legs, rendering him unable to move and turning him into a complete prey.
Lin Yu noticed immediately, leaped backward to avoid some of the vines, and swung both hands at the same time to slash at the vines.
Sword energy crisscrossed as Lin Yu landed steadily, along with broken vines that covered the ground in dense layers.
Zijin, having failed in his attempt to steal a chicken, quickly reclaimed the remaining vines.
Lin Yuzhen became truly ruthless, disregarding the cost, and unleashed a sword wheel with a backhand strike.
But the sword wheel crushed everything in its path, severing vine after vine, before forcefully breaking into the purple mist and turning the place upside down.
What does it mean to be brutally beaten? This is it.
Five seconds later, the sword wheel dissipated, the purple mist subsided, and no more vines dared to extend out; they were truly obedient now.
Lin Yu remained vigilant, approaching little by little without rushing in. Instead, he tried to touch it first. If he sensed something was wrong, he would run without hesitation!
A wisp of purple mist adhered to the palm of the hand, and at the same time, a prompt popped up on the control panel:
[Ding! You are being corrupted by the Illusory Mist. If the corruption lasts for more than 1 second, you will have a 10% chance of being controlled. This chance will accumulate until, after 10 seconds, you will be 100% controlled.]
Lin Yu was first taken aback, then laughed. That's it?
A ray of white light rippled across my chest, and then:
[Ding! The negative effect has been canceled.]
Lin Yu was noticeably calmer and walked into the purple mist with his sword in hand.
The purple mist was so thick that Lin Yu could only see about 2 meters ahead. The area on both sides was much wider than before, and he couldn't see the end of it at a glance.
After walking only a few steps, Lin Yu sensed danger approaching and suddenly stopped.
Amidst surging purple mist and deafening roars, Lin Yu saw monsters resembling green frogs, almost identical to those he had seen outside.
The only difference was that the pupils of these monsters shimmered with a faint purple light, a crystalline purple like agate.
They were brought under control.
Lin Yu immediately realized that he was facing not only level 10 Purple Gold Vine, but also a large group of level 5, 6, 7, and 8 monsters.
It's not that it's unmanageable.
At that moment, monsters roared and pounced on Lin Yu. On the ground, vines snaked forward and then suddenly attacked, their target still Lin Yu's thigh.
Lin Yu was speechless, thinking to himself:
Are you jealous and resentful because I have legs and you don't?
Such a display would probably make most people turn and run away, but Lin Yu was fearless.
"Control? You're not the only one who can control."
Lin Yu leaped up, dodging the vines that were wrapping around him, and then killed several monsters at top speed.
At the same time, a dark green bracelet appeared on Lin Yu's wrist.
Messenger of the Dead.
As one of Lin Yu's two top-tier items, its power is beyond doubt.
Previously, Lin Yu was worried that other people entering the instance might see it and spread the news, so he refrained from using it.
Now, Lin Yu has no more scruples.
A ring of eerie green light spread outwards. Lin Yu had leveled up to level 7, and the halo could extend up to a range of 7 meters. However, to save energy, Lin Yu only extended it to 3 meters.
In an instant, the monster that Lin Yu had previously killed stood up again, its pupils glowing green.
They have all been transformed into undead, and only obey Lin Yu's commands.
As soon as Lin Yu had a thought, the undead immediately surrounded him and fought against the charging monster.
The rest is simple: every time Lin Yu kills a monster, the monsters immediately turn around and help him.
Aside from level 8 monsters, Lin Yu has no way to convert or control targets that are above his own level, but even that is still incredibly powerful!
The Purple Gold Vine probably never imagined that the monsters it originally controlled and treated as its henchmen would now basically become Lin Yu's henchmen.
Finally, Lin Yu unleashed a 5-meter-wide aura and led his thugs into the depths of the purple mist.
Vines stretched out, attempting to kill Lin Yu.
As a result, Lin Yu didn't even have to lift a finger. Each of the thugs dealt with a vine, fiercely wrapping it around their bodies, leaving their skin torn and bleeding.
Over time, the purple vine almost ran out of vines to use.
If it could speak, perhaps it would say:
"Holy crap! There's such a ruthless fighting style?"
Soon, Lin Yu led a group of thugs and arrived at the vicinity of the Purple Gold Vine.
As you can see, there is a plant rooted in a dark purple crystal, with vines growing on it.
However, now, the vines, whether broken or not, have all stretched out in all directions, twitching violently and difficult to retract.
Lin Yu wanted to laugh: "Is he practically a lone commander now?"
On the main stem of the plant, there was a blurry human face. At this moment, it was baring its teeth and glaring angrily, as if it wanted to rush up and bite Lin Yu.
Unfortunately, it couldn't do that. Unable to move, it was like a lion locked in an iron cage, completely out of danger.
Purple Gold Vine was actually quite confused, as it possessed three super-powerful abilities: the Illusionary Mist, vines as hard as iron, and a group of henchmen.
Logically, it should have been in an invincible position, but in the end, well, let's not even talk about it, it was badly hurt.
