Chapter 862: Got Abandoned!
Even though the [Heaven Covering Necklace]'s equipment skill, [Spirit Cover], could protect Tang Li Xue's soul, mind, and consciousness from [Paranormal Intuition]'s fatal backlash, but it could only protect her once after all.
In other words, she only had one chance to use [Paranormal Intuition], so she must not fail or get interrupted by the strange green vines!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy could only last for a few dozen seconds at best, so she quickly digested the related information she obtained from the dazzling golden Sea of Knowledge!
The information about the precious treasures containing star energies hidden in the cave appeared in her mind piece by piece like a fast-forwarded movie.
Meanwhile, the strange green vines became even more manic as if they sensed the mysterious but terrifying aura emanating from Tang Li Xue's perfect copy right at this moment!
The thousands of vine soldiers charged toward Tang Li Xue and her team even more desperately than before!
Tang Li Xue imbued her [Sharp Edge Power] buff onto her [Sword of Disaster] first before she unleashed her sword technique toward the vine soldiers that stabbed their vine spears at her!
[Heavenly Sword Techniques], Flooding Stabs!
The pitch-black [Sword of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue's grasp split into countless sword images as she released countless rapid thrusts at once at those vine soldiers!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The countless black sword images instantly drowned more than a hundred vine soldiers in front of Tang Li Xue like a tsunami and sliced them all into tiny pieces!
Even Yaya seemed to lose her patience and unleashed her [Cyclone Storm] wantonly!
BWOOOOSSH~!
A huge pillar of hurricane condensed from countless dancing sharp wind blades sucked all of the nearby vine soldiers and shredded them into tiny pieces!
Tang Li Xue was worried that Yaya's [Cyclone Storm] would accidentally suck the precious treasures containing star energy hidden in this cave, so she hastily warned Yaya: "Yaya, quickly disperse your [Cyclone Storm]! Your [Cyclone Storm] is surely effective in cleaning these vine soldiers, but I am really afraid that it will also accidentally ruin the precious treasures."
Yaya frowned in annoyance since she could not use her [Cyclone Storm] to quickly clean out all of these vine soldiers and strange green vines, but she still obediently dispersed her [Cyclone Storm] just like Tang Li Xue had instructed.
But right at this time, the countless strange green vines had already intertwined with each other again to form several enormous vine tentacles at once!
"Oh, damn..." Tang Li Xue murmured when she saw the towering enormous vine tentacles which were as tall as a pagoda!
Her perfect copy was in the most critical moment of using [Paranormal Intuition] right now, so she could not move, defend herself, or be interrupted at all!
It meant Tang Li Xue and her group had to prevent the several enormous vine tentacles from touching or interrupting the perfect copy at least until she finished her task!
"Get ready, everyone~! Stop them all at all costs!" Tang Li Xue shouted to her team in a solemn tone.
Lucia activated her [Slow Motion] buff, while Tang Li Xue used her [Wings of Freedom] buff.
Yaya also unleashed her [Wind Guardian Blessing] buff on herself and everyone to improve their overall speed.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
When the several enormous vine tentacles whipped down toward them like several falling mountains, Tang Li Xue, Yaya, Lucia, and Little Loki made their moves to stop them!
[Shockwave Impact] plus [Vacuum Slash]~!
[Heaven's Devour]~!
[Stellar Banishment]~!
[Blade Feather Projectiles]~!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Little Loki managed to swallow one of the enormous vine tentacles with its [Heaven's Devour].
Tang Li Xue banished another enormous vine tentacle with her [Stellar Banishment] until it momentarily turned into a ball of light.
Surprisingly, the enormous vine tentacle was severed after it was banished with [Stellar Banishment].
Tang Li Xue squinted her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes as she got an inspiration.
'Wait a minute... Is it possible to sever my opponent's head by only 'banishing' their head with my [Stellar Banishment] instead of their entire body?' Tang Li Xue thought quietly while smiling in excitement.
Unfortunately, it was not possible for her current self to do it since she must have perfect control over [Stellar Banishment] in order to do it while she just obtained [Stellar Banishment] recently after the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Tang Li Xue shook her head in frustration while smiling in irony.
She already has so many things to practice, and now, she has to add practicing [Stellar Banishment] into her future schedule.
But it was definitely not the right time to worry about that because she still had much more important things to worry about!
Lucia's [Blade Feather Projectiles] and Yaya's [Vacuum Slash] actually failed to stop the other enormous vine tentacles, but at least they managed to slow them down!
Tang Li Xue unleashed her [Stellar Banishment] to banish another enormous vine tentacle while Little Loki swallowed the other one with its [Heaven's Devour].
"Damn it, we are not fast enough! Watch out, everyone!" Tang Li Xue shouted to warn the others while the army of vine soldiers had already approached so close to them!
But before Tang Li Xue and her team could handle those approaching vine soldiers, the rest of the enormous vine tentacles stomped down toward them mercilessly without caring about those vine soldiers!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Hundreds of vine soldiers were also crushed by the enormous vine tentacles, but the strange green vines did not care about them at all.
As long as they could smash Tang Li Xue and her team to be their fertilizer, the strange green vines would not mind sacrificing their vine soldiers.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue and her group managed to avoid the enormous vine tentacles' attack at the last moment, but...
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (1/3)]
Yes, they actually left Tang Li Xue's perfect copy alone!
Luckily, Tang Li Xue's perfect copy managed to complete her task right before she got stomped by the enormous vine tentacles!
After Tang Li Xue's perfect copy digested the most crucial information she obtained from the dazzling Sea of Knowledge, she could not hold on anymore and passed out.
However, the equipment skill from [Heaven Covering Necklace], [Spirit Cover], automatically activated to protect her soul, mind, and consciousness from the unbearable backlash of the [Paranormal Intuition] divine ability and the terrifying pressure of the dazzling Sea of Knowledge!
Then Tang Li Xue's perfect copy still fell unconscious after that.
If not for that, she might have already scolded the real Tang Li Xue for being heartless right now, since Tang Li Xue actually left her alone and avoided the enormous vine tentacles' attack by herself.
Tang Li Xue blushed in embarrassment for abandoning her perfect copy with her team, but there was actually nothing they could do to block the extremely powerful attack from the enormous vine tentacles in that situation.
Tang Li Xue used her [Twin Moons] to un-summon her fainted perfect copy and let it rest for now.
"Good job~! Don't worry, I will make it up for you later." Tang Li Xue happily muttered to appease her fainted perfect copy while staring in a certain direction with a confident smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
"I have to admit that you damn cunning vegetables are really a bunch of smart bast*rds~!"Tang Li Xue mockingly said as she stared at one of the vine soldiers who was standing quite far away from her.
According to the information obtained from [Paranormal Intuition], the treasure containing star energy planted in this cave was called [Star Cluster Ginseng].
The main reason why Tang Li Xue and her group could not find it until now was because the cunning green vines actually disguised it as one of their vine soldiers!
Just as the vine soldiers and several enormous vine tentacles charged toward Tang Li Xue and her team again, Tang Li Xue quickly activated her [Wind Burst Step] several times in a row and appeared right beside her targeted vine soldier!
Before that vine soldier could react, Tang Li Xue swiftly brandished the pitch-black [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp.
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Flash Draw!
PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue's pitch-black [Sword of Disaster] easily cut that vine soldier in two and instantly revealed a glowing ginseng hidden inside the vine soldier's body!
The strange green vines quickly moved to grab the [Star Cluster Ginseng], but Tang Li Xue's movement was much faster than theirs because she still had [Wings of Freedom] buff.
Tang Li Xue stretched her right hand and snatched the [Star Cluster Ginseng] before the strange green vines could touch it, then she threw the [Star Cluster Ginseng] into her space pouch in less than one breath.
Tang Li Xue sighed and felt very relieved after she finally obtained the treasure with star energy in this underwater palace.
But the strange green vines obviously did not think so...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The entire cave suddenly shook violently!
"So, you damn vegetables became very angry because I snatched your treasure, huh... But so what?! I have already lost my patience with you since long ago, so you better be prepared~!" Tang Li Xue said leisurely to the green vines as deep blue Flame of Pride and golden sun flame began to burst out from her slender body.
Previously, she did not dare to use any of her flames to burn these annoying vines because she was afraid that she would also burn the treasure containing the star energy.
But Tang Li Xue no longer had to hold back herself anymore after she got the [Star Cluster Ginseng]!
