Chapter 160: The "Heart" of the Vines



Only the piece of red flesh in the middle was beating slowly and rhythmically, making a "thump, thump" sound of a beating heart.

In this dark and enclosed environment, the drumming sound seemed extremely heavy. Every beat seemed to make Xu Xin's heart skip a beat. He even felt his head starting to feel dizzy.

The sound of the beating heart could actually affect him. The time for his mental strength to increase had not yet come!

It suddenly occurred to him that he had not eaten any strawberries in the tree house.

Strawberries can eliminate all negative effects and maintain emotional stability for half an hour.

Xu Xin actually didn't really want to use blue-level strawberries. After all, this thing was too similar to something else and felt addictive.

But he couldn't care less now, so he quickly took out a strawberry from his backpack and ate it. In an instant, his dizzy head became much clearer, and his slightly nervous and excited mood also calmed down.

Xu Xin led the four beasts back to the corner and ate all his blue-level fruits again to make sure that all the buffs on his body were still there.

"Hmm..."

Xu Xin felt that Coco's body on his shoulder was a little stiff.

It was very wary of the heart in front of it. Now they were right below the tree house, and this heart-like piece of flesh was what had frightened Coco all day.

Judging from the distance they had just traveled, they were now about three or four hundred meters underground.

"You guys, stay here and don't move. I'll go in and take a look first." Xu Xin carried Coco from his shoulders to the back of the Silver King and whispered to the four beasts.

The entire interior cannot be seen from the entrance of the cave, so he needs to go in and observe carefully with his amplified eyes. He won't let Mimi go in first to test it out, as it would be bad if she accidentally touched her heart.

All four beasts responded with a soft cry.

Xu Xin did not dare to act rashly. Ji Chaoyang suddenly lost contact on his way back after encountering this heart. Although his name has not been grayed out, he must have been in danger.

Gently, step by step, following the rhythm of his heartbeat, Xu Xin stepped into an underground space, and the entire picture of the space was fully presented to him.

He noticed the difference immediately.

After walking through the cave for several hundred meters, we found that the walls of the cave were made of contaminated soil, but the soil on all sides of this space was very ordinary soil, not even green level, but white level barren soil.

It seems that this heart and these vines have not yet contaminated the soil under the tree house.

The heart is about six or seven meters high and is surrounded by three layers of messy vines. The vine layer surrounding the heart is about three or four meters thick. It is impossible to attack them directly with spears and explosive crossbows, as they will only be blocked by the vines.

However, Xu Xin has another weapon.

Burning Arrow!

With so many vines, if you use an incendiary arrow, you can burn a whole area! Since it's not on the ground, it won't cause a jungle fire, which is perfect!

Xu Xin had previously crafted forty incendiary arrows, and now they were all in his backpack. Forty, more than enough.

Of course, there are disadvantages. Burning will consume a lot of oxygen and produce thick fog. After lighting these vines, he needs to run outside immediately. If he continues to stay underground, he will suffocate to death.

Just do it!

Xu Xin slowly backed away.

Suddenly, the heart protected by layers of vines lit up with a blood-red light!

Xu Xin's pupils shrank.

"Ying!" Coco's anxious cry came from behind. The meaning of the cry was very clear. She was telling him to leave there quickly because danger was coming!

Resisting the urge to raise his hand and shoot an arrow, Xu Xin quickly returned to the corner, hid in a relatively safe place, and looked towards the heart.

The frequency of the beating obviously increased, and the blood-red light on the heart began to flicker with the beating!

The vines around the heart began to glow red as the heart beat, and the patterned blood thorns on their bodies began to twist slowly.

This scene was exactly the same as the one in the video! The red light shone throughout the entire underground space, completely dyeing the surroundings a blood-red color, which was chilling.

“Hiss—that’s…”

Besides the blood-veined and blood-thorned vines, there were also some ordinary vines in this space. Even under Xu Xin's gaze, they began to grow patterns and blood-thorns!

These vines actually transformed into mutant vines with the beating of the heart!

"Oh, oh, oh!" Coco's cry was full of anxiety.

Danger! Very dangerous!
