Chapter 86: Divine Vine Breakthrough
In the forest south of the Vine Tribe, Hua Wen did not immediately return to the tribe with Tao Ding, but hid with his men.
He hoped that the people of the Teng tribe would come back, and then they would attack unexpectedly and completely wipe out the people of the Teng tribe.
However, what made him very depressed was that they waited for three whole days but didn't even see the shadow of the people from the Teng tribe.
After waiting for another day unwillingly, Hua Wen finally went back helplessly.
Because there are many people in the Mosquito Tribe, and the hunting team he brought with him is the strongest one, if he doesn't go back for a long time, the people of the Mosquito Tribe will starve.
After Hua Wen left, the people of the Teng tribe still did not return.
Jiang Xuan knew very well that at this time, any negligence would lead to disastrous consequences.
Anyway, the house has been burned down, and there is more food on the other side of the river, so we might as well wait for a while, preferably until the divine vine breaks through before going back.
In addition, Jiang Xuan also wanted to take the opportunity to explore the forest on the other side of the river to see how many resources could be used.
When the Fuji tribe grows in number, we can even allow some of them to live here permanently and build a larger territory.
Just like that, in the blink of an eye, a month passed.
The Teng tribe firmly established itself on the other side of the river. Not only did they build a large number of houses, they even found several new edible plants and opened up some land for cultivation.
If they continue like this, they can survive here even if they don't go back to live at the foot of the stone mountain.
Yet, most people still want to go back.
Especially Gan Song, he kept talking about taking a bamboo raft to check on the crops. After not being taken care of for so long, the fields were probably overgrown with weeds.
Unfortunately, Jiang Xuan wouldn't let him go back, so he could only open up new farmland here while looking worriedly at the other side of the river from time to time.
During this period, Hua Wen brought people here twice, but both times they came back empty-handed.
They had no way to cross the river, so they could only leave cursing.
The people of the Mosquito Tribe even thought that the Vine Tribe would never come back.
After all, in this primitive era, tribal migration was common. Apart from those large tribes, who would live in one place for a long time?
May 8th, early morning.
Jiang Xuan led his men to check several traps set yesterday. Half of them were triggered and several small prey were caught.
"Not bad, take it back."
Jiang Xuan was about to walk back with a prey in his hand, when suddenly, a large number of dark clouds gathered in the sky and a strong wind blew.
"It's going to rain? Let's go."
The summer thunderstorm came suddenly. Jiang Xuan didn't have time to think about it and ran back with his men. Although they were physically strong, they didn't want to get wet.
“Boom…”
“Crack…”
Today's dark clouds are extremely thick, lightning is dancing like silver snakes, and the wind is howling.
However, the heavy rain that Jiang Xuan expected did not come, not even a light rain.
When they ran back to the newly built house, they found that endless green light suddenly shot up into the sky from the other side of the stone mountain.
“God of Teng, God of Teng is about to break through!”
Chishao stood at the door excitedly, staring at the direction of the stone mountain.
Jiang Xuan put down his prey and stood with Chishao. He looked at the thick dark clouds in the sky and was actually a little worried.
If the divine vine breaks through successfully, everyone will naturally be happy, but if the divine vine fails to break through, they may really not be able to return to that place of residence for a long time.
Others also jumped up and looked over there, feeling nervous and expectant.
Gan Song subconsciously clenched his fists and whispered, "We must succeed. The leader said that if Fujin succeeds in breaking through, we can go back."
Until now, he still cares about the crops in the fields.
Da Jiao also shared the same mood as him.
However, because all the wild animals and insects raised by Dajiao were released, he was not as anxious as Gansong.
"boom!"
On the top of the stone mountain, the divine vine that had been dormant for more than a month finally revived. All the vines were glowing, and endless green light enveloped the entire stone mountain.
A terrible atmosphere was spreading. All the animals near the stone mountain that could run had already run away. Those that couldn't run could only crawl on the ground, trembling in fear as they waited for an unknown fate to come.
“Clatter…”
The huge divine vine was actually moving all over. The stone mountain was shaking and gravel was falling down with a crackling sound.
This is an extremely rare scene.
In the past, the main body of the divine vine had never moved, only the vines and roots could move freely.
However, at this moment, the entire divine vine was actually growing and twisting, like a giant dragon, as if it was about to take off into the sky.
“Crack!”
Finally, the lightning that had been brewing in the sky for a long time struck down, like a bright and dazzling heavenly sword, slashing towards the divine vine, trying to cut it off.
Above the divine vine, the green light became even stronger, all the leaves became crystal clear, and the new vines danced wildly.
A thick bolt of lightning fell on the stone mountain, and the end of the divine vine was directly burnt, and even the rocks were broken into pieces.
The green light above the divine vine was struck dim.
On the other side of the river, Jiang Xuan, Chi Shao, and all the people of the Teng tribe became nervous. This divine power from heaven and earth filled them with fear from the bottom of their hearts.
But everyone hopes that Shen Teng can survive.
On the other side of the stone mountain, although the end of the divine vine was burnt, most of the lightning was directed into the ground along the huge vine, so it was not seriously damaged.
The divine vine swung violently, the burnt vines were thrown off, and then new vines quickly grew out, its roots growing wider and deeper underground.
“Crack!”
Another bolt of lightning struck down, and the huge rocks on the top of the stone mountain were smashed into pieces, with debris flying everywhere.
The sacred vine still used its tough body to direct most of the lightning into the ground, and the burnt parts grew again.
Just like that, after five consecutive lightning strikes, the green light of the divine vine had become very dim, many vines had become charred, and most of the top of the stone mountain had collapsed.
At this moment, the lightning dancing wildly in the sky gradually disappeared.
“Tick!”
A drop of rain floated down from the dark clouds and landed on a leaf of the sacred vine.
Then, more raindrops fell, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into heavy rain.
The rain washed the exhausted sacred vine, giving it new vitality.
After absorbing the rain water, the weakened vines regained their vitality, and all their branches and leaves stretched out.
The main body of the sacred vine continued to grow in the rain, becoming thicker, with its roots going deeper and covering a wider area.
The dim green light became strong again, even stronger and stronger than before!
“Bang!”
A thick vine whipped excitedly in the air, making a loud sonic boom.
On the other side of the river, Chishao said excitedly: "Teng Shen has successfully broken through!"
"good!"
Jiang Xuan couldn't hide his excitement. He looked in the direction of the stone mountain and shouted.
"Very good!"
"Fujishen has broken through!"
"We can go back now!"
…
Soon, cheers broke out from the other side of the river, and even the heavy rain could not dampen their enthusiasm.
"Chief, Chief, when are we going back?"
Gan Song braved the heavy rain and found Jiang Xuan as soon as possible, his eyes full of anticipation.
Jiang Xuan smiled and said, "The Vine God has made a breakthrough. We don't have to worry about the Mosquito Tribe attacking us anymore. We'll go back after the rain stops!"
"Okay, okay, great..."
Gan Song was so excited that he didn't know what to say. He couldn't wait to go back and check the dozens of acres of crops. He didn't know whether they had been destroyed by the people of the Mosquito Tribe, whether they had grown weeds, or whether they had been eaten by wild beasts.
An hour later, the rain stopped and the sky cleared up. The people of the Teng tribe immediately packed up their things and prepared to return to their original residence.
…
Shen Teng looked up to the sky and shouted: "I have already broken through, where is the monthly ticket?"
