This time, when roasted with fire again, the vine learned its lesson.
Instead of curling up, they moved to the side to avoid the area scorched by the torch.
That's not bad either; at least she can climb up more easily now.
Shen Jue maintained this speed and made her way to the topmost branch where she could land.
There are still three meters to the spherical object.
Further up, there are only thin branches that cannot support the weight of a person.
Even if she had a place to stay, she wouldn't dare to try it casually.
If it breaks, she doesn't want to experience free fall.
That feeling of being out of control of life and death is not pleasant at all.
However, she is still three meters away from the sphere. How can she reach it?
Before she could think further, she heard a strange noise below.
Shen Jue looked down.
Holy crap!
Below, countless drooping vines were rapidly converging in her direction.
She was left with no chance to react.
They're going to surround her!
This young Thousand-Thread Vine is quite capable! It actually knows how to use a roundabout tactic.
Does she really think she only has one torch?!
Since it wasn't afraid of death, she boldly burned it.
Since we can't get up there anyway, we might as well burn these vines here.
So, Shen Jue held the torch in both hands and waved it up and down in small movements.
She was certain that if the vines dared to get close, they would immediately feel the heat of the flames.
With the addition of a torch, the temperature around Shen Jue rose even further.
The vines that had been close to her froze.
There was a brief pause of a few seconds.
Upon seeing these menacing vines, Shen Jue suddenly had a bold idea.
Previously, they had used fire to make the vines curl up and break. So, taking advantage of the opportunity, they grabbed a handful of vines and roasted them over a fire.
Shen Jue deliberately held the torch very close, and it looked like it was about to burn the vines.
The vines that had caught them had no way to escape, so they could only desperately curl up backward.
Young Thousand-Thread Vine: I'm devastated! I'm absolutely devastated! What the hell is this awful thing?! Why don't you just not use fire?!
Seeing that this tactic was working, and that she was gradually moving closer to the sphere.
It seems that some settings in the game system do conform to the laws of nature.
I heard from the little rabbit before how dangerous the adult form of the Thousand-Thread Vine is.
This made her view of Qian Si Teng very dangerous.
It now appears that the Thousand-Thread Vine still has natural enemies.
This place is all plants and water, and it's very difficult for these plants to encounter fire unless lightning strikes from the sky.
These rattan knives couldn't cut through them, and now that she had caught a portion of them, there was no way to escape.
The vines chasing after her hesitated, afraid of being burned by the flames.
This made things much easier. A few meters away, Shen Jue climbed the pole and arrived in front of the giant sphere.
Looking at the crystal-clear sphere, Shen Jue put away a torch and took out a long knife.
This knife is long and thin, with a flat edge, and a thin yet tough blade that can cut a hair with a breath.
It's perfect for cutting this spherical object.
Shen Jue held the knife horizontally in front of him, tracing where to make the first cut.
At this moment, Qian Si Teng was unaware of the human's intentions.
After all, it is still just a young, unconscious vine.
It was only afraid of the burning torch in Shen Jue's hand, completely unaware that the seemingly inconspicuous longsword in her hand posed a deadly threat to it.
The longsword gleamed coldly, but the Thousand-Thread Vine was completely unaware of the danger. It even controlled the sphere to generate new vines in an attempt to stop Shen Jue.
Will Shen Jue give it that chance?
No, absolutely not.
