Monster Paradise-Webnovel - Chapter 1874
Chapter 1874 Tricky Battle
Even Lin Huang had to admit that the veiled lady’s attack method was brilliant.
Her target had always been the demonic tree from the beginning, and not the purple vine.
Her Primordium attacked the purple vine together with a clone. They seemed to have lost their mind, looking as if they were dead-set on killing it. However, it was all an act.
Apart from herself, nobody knew that she was acting
The reason being was that, logically, it made sense for her to want to kill the purple vine first.
The purple vine had weak defensive capabilities and more powerful attack abilities. It was the bigger threat of the two. It should also be comparatively easier to kill, and as such the advantage of killing it first was clear.
However, the two demonic plants did not expect that the lady did the opposite. With that in mind, she had set up a trap on purpose and targeted the demonic tree.
Even Lin Huang had almost been deceived at first. He only noticed that something was off after observing for a while.
The reason being was that he could see her Primordium. He saw that she was controlling her usage of Dominator Power, which was how he came to that conclusion.
After killing the demonic tree, the lady’s Primordium and the remaining clone turned around and attacked the purple vine without hesitation.
However, something happened at that moment.
The purple vine stretched out its hundreds of vines and penetrated the demonic tree’s carcass. It dragged it underground quickly. At the same time, its aura was growing with every second.
“What a decisive move!” Lin Huang could not help but look up to the purple vine’s intelligence even more now when he witnessed its actions.
From that act alone, the modification of this demonic plant was more than a success.
The veiled lady was persistent in going after
it.
She knew that it was not escaping at all, but rather stalling for time. It wanted to absorb the demonic tree’s carcass as much as possible in order to strengthen itself.
After spending quite some effort to kill the demonic tree, she did not expect that it would become a source of energy and growth for her enemy instead.
The lady gritted her teeth and continued to dive underground. She struck forth with sword gleams continuously in an attempt to interrupt it.
She also tried to freeze the soil, but the purple vine was like a loach. No matter how she tried to hinder it, it would successfully escape no matter what.
She knew very well that the longer it stalled, the more powerful it would become.
However, she had tried everything as she went, but had minimal success.
The underground was the purple vine’s territory.
It was like a fish in water. Though it was carrying a gigantic carcass with it, it was much faster than the veiled lady.
The lady chased after it for a while, but it was getting further and further away.
After sensing the drain on her Dominator Power, she decisively chose to give up the chase and ran back above ground.
Her clone disappeared quickly when she returned above ground.
Meanwhile, her Primordium glanced at the hole in the ground that the purple vine left as it escaped with regret, and flew to the sky directly. She seemed to have given up on fighting and left this planet.
However, at that moment, countless vines shot out of the hole. It was as if a gigantic mouth had opened and was coming at the lady ferociously.
Clearly, the purple vine did not plan to let its enemy leave so easily.
The lady smirked from behind her veil. Just as the countless vines were about to touch her body, she released a chilly aura from her body frantically.
The gigantic mouth made from the countless vines was frozen into an ice sculpture instantly.
The ice even spread downward quickly. It froze the portion of the purple vine’s body that was exposed on the ground.
At the same time, the lady’s clone appeared at the hole. It was unknown as to when she had performed another hand seal.
A massive wave came pouring into the hole manically.
Lin Huang almost cheered out loud when he saw that.
In reality, he knew from the beginning that the lady did not plan to leave at all.
She seemed to have removed her clone, but it was all just an act. Her clone merely concealed its aura.
Lin Huang was observing the battle with his Divine Telekinesis. Moreover, his Divine Telekinesis was much more powerful than the lady’s, so she could not deceive him with her actions at all.
Therefore, he knew from the start that the lady had been pretending to leave. She wanted to lure the enemy out in order to attack it.
However, he did not know how she was going to set up the attack.
Now that he finally saw it, he could not help but secretly exclaim at how brilliant it was.
No matter how deep the purple vine dove underground, and no matter how complicated its body was, as long as there was a gap, the water could go in.
As the lady controlled the rate of freezing, she could totally freeze it underground.
Moreover, as the person who released the water, she could control where the water went perfectly, and as a result would know where the enemy was hiding and attack accurately therefrom.
Lin Huang’s Divine Telekinesis saw that even clearer.
The second the purple vine sensed that it was ambushed, without hesitation, it chose to sever its limbs to survive.
It severed all of the frozen vines and continued to escape by digging holes further and further underground.
However, before it could run far, endless water poured in, filling every inch of the space that it dug out.
The second when the entire space was almost filled with water, the piercing cold ice arrived.
It froze the purple vine and the demonic tree’s carcass that it had yet to finish absorbing entirely. On the ground, the lady hovered midair.
Eighty-one pairs of crystal wings consolidated instantly. They then turned into 162 crystal sabers and attacked maniacally at the targeted location.
She clearly did not hold back with her attack.
The 162 crystal sabers poured down like a storm, transforming the ground into a bottomless pit… She did not stop just yet, because she did not sense the purple vine’s aura dissipating.
The crystal wings on her back poured down like rain over and over again, seemingly trying to turn this area into nothingness.
However, Lin Huang slowly looked solemn.
The lady was too slow after all.
The second the purple vine was frozen, it managed to absorb the demonic tree completely.
As the crystal sabers attacked, not only did its aura not disappear, it became unprecedentedly powerful.
The strength of its aura had far surpassed the veiled lady.
Sensing the unusualness, the lady gave up decisively. She flapped her 81 pairs of crystal wings quickly into the sky.
She wanted to seize the opportunity to escape before the purple vine’s aura had peaked and stabilized completely, and before it could focus on the outside world. It was the only opportunity she could use to escape.
However, Lin Huang, who was watching the battle, secretly released a soft sigh. “It’s too late…”
The second the lady turned around to escape, the purple vine’s aura peaked. It finally focused on what was happening outside its body and locked its Divine Telekinesis on the veiled lady.
Suddenly, countless vines with thorns pierced through the ground from beneath. They were like endless tentacles sweeping toward the lady…
