Chapter 229 Spore-eyed Earth Mother
Just then, Ta Shan, who was not far away, saw Xu Si flying in mid-air and hurriedly shouted, "Knife! This thing seems endless! There looks like there are more on the ground, and the more you pull, the more there are!"
At this moment, Tashan was already covered with vines of unknown length, and he pulled out even more vines from the ground, seemingly endless.
"The spores are strange."
At the same time, Xiao Luo's voice rang in Xu Si's mind.
Because he had already seen several ordinary people attacked by the spores become extremely thin, as if their skin and flesh were being absorbed, as if they were terminally ill!
These spores are indeed strange.
"Evacuate! Everyone leave the village!" Fu Xiaojian's loudspeaker blared throughout the village.
Several ordinary people, already entangled by the spores, struggled to make their way towards the bus not far away, their speed decreasing as if they were wading through a swamp.
Those who wanted to lend a hand had to give up when they saw the strange entanglement around him.
Xu Si's pupils suddenly contracted.
Under the starlight, a terrifying change was taking place in those ordinary people who were staggering and running.
Fine, grayish-green lines spread beneath their skin like living things, and wherever they went, the muscles shrank and atrophied at a visible rate.
Those spores, which were just the size of a fist a moment ago, are now frantically absorbing their life force.
In just a few breaths, it turned into vines as thick as thighs and took root on the spot, devouring the flesh of ordinary people!
"Jiao Jiao!"
Xu Si shouted sharply, his figure flashing like lightning as he swooped down towards the nearest infected person, determined to save as many as he could.
Almost simultaneously, the pickup truck door was suddenly pushed open, and Jiao Jiao leaned out halfway, pressing her hands down. Milky white "echo" halos rained down, enveloping the swaying figures.
The moment the halo touched them, the spread of the gray-green patterns on those people slowed down noticeably, but did not stop.
"It's no use! These spores are absorbing my energy!" Jiao Jiao could feel the energy she had unleashed weakening at a visible rate.
Xu Si landed, and the tip of the [Sword of Punishment] flicked lightly, its starlight flickering, but he dared not strike rashly, for the spores and the human body had almost merged into one.
It's a bit troublesome.

【Characteristics: Wild Roots, Frenzied Absorption, Vines Spread】
His gaze shifted sharply to one of the ordinary people who had been completely devoured by the spores.
He had now completely transformed into something bizarre!
This was something Xu Si hadn't anticipated.
Left with no other choice, Xu Si could only slash with his sword.
[Purify Level 1 Eerie Creature: Earth Sporeman, Purification Points: +1000]
It's really gotten weird!
Three others were also infected by the spores, and Xu Si realized that he couldn't save any of them.
Ordinary people encased in spores are like soil in which plants take root.
When Xu Si cut off the spores, he also cut off their lives.
"Help!"
Faced with the pleading man before him, Xu Si couldn't even recall his name.
His eyes held only longing and pain.
That was his yearning for Xu Si to help him find relief.
"Help!"
Faced with the same painful pleas, Xu Si simply swung his sword three times.

He saw the tears fall to the ground.
They can finally escape this terrible apocalypse.
Admittedly, Xu Si could wait until they all became Level 1 Anomalies before eliminating them.
That way you earn more purification points.
However, Xu Si couldn't wait any longer!
"Evacuate! Immediately!" Fu Xiaojian's voice came through the loudspeaker, hoarse yet carrying an undeniable determination.
The entire mountain village is no longer an abandoned village, but a huge and dangerous incubator.
The thick vines continued to sprout from the ground, and the spores that spewed out from the cracks spread through the air like smoke of death.
Chen Pei and Li Miao are working together to clear out the spores that are besieging the convoy.
Tashan was almost completely surrounded by a huge amount of vines. The vines he pulled out were at least tens of meters long, and he was currently entangled by them and unable to get away for the time being.
Wang Hu acted like a cleaner, clearing away the vines around him. The vines he touched quickly turned to ashes, a skill he had learned from roasting sweet potatoes.
"Brother Dao!" Jiao Jiao and Su Su had already retreated back into the car and were now anxiously waving at Xu Si.
"Let's go, Knife! Be careful, these little things can absorb supernatural energy!" At this moment, Tashan was also rescued by Wang Hu, and the two were running towards the village entrance.
"You guys go first!" Xu Si said expressionlessly, turning around and riding his sword towards the densest part of the vines.
At this moment, the whole village seemed to come alive, with waving vines and spores flying everywhere.
Xu Si hovered in mid-air, his scarlet star-like eyes coldly scanning the area below.
The tragic sight of those plants that were parasitized by spores, quickly dried up, and then devoured by new vines did not stir much emotion in his eyes.
The cruelty of the apocalypse has long since forged compassion into a luxury.
He was more concerned about the parent plant of these vines.
The Star Pulse Perception expanded to its fullest extent, like an invisible spider web covering the entire mountain village, meticulously capturing every vibration and every ripple of energy.
The mother's body is always different!
Xu Si's senses were magnified infinitely: the trajectory of the vines breaking through the soil, the direction of the spores spraying, even the rhythm of those newly sprouted vines waving...
Countless subtle pieces of information converge and are compared in consciousness.
found it.
In the center of the village, there is a flat, dry open space, without a single vine or anything unusual.
The absence of any abnormality is the biggest abnormality.
The village was now covered in vines, except for this one patch where not a blade of grass grew, which made him suspicious.
This should be the central hub of the "cluster root network".
Without hesitation, Xu Si's mind raced, and in an instant, he arrived above the open space.
He made a grasping motion with his right hand, and a highly compressed, crimson energy sphere, its internal starlight collapsing wildly, instantly took shape, emitting a chilling fluctuation.
"Starburst Arrow."
The scarlet beam penetrated extremely deep underground before exploding with a deafening roar; this was the result of Xu Si's deliberate control.
There was no earth-shattering roar, only a dull, muffled "thump" sound, as if the earth's internal organs had been pierced.
Immediately afterwards, the ground trembled violently, not from the shockwave of an explosion, but from the vibrations caused by some enormous thing writhing and convulsing underground in agony!
"Crack—Boom—!"
Centered on the point where the beam entered, the ground within a radius of tens of meters suddenly arched upwards and cracked!
Countless thicker, darker, almost inky black vines burst forth from the earth like wounded giant pythons, twisting and thrashing wildly, tearing the rubble and houses on the ground to shreds!
These newly emerging vines were quite different from the previous dark green ones; their surface was covered with a bluish-black cuticle, and a viscous, foul-smelling dark red sap flowed from their crevices.
At the tip of each vine, there is a crack, but the crack does not contain spores.
Instead, they were cloudy, bloodshot "eyes"!
Those eyes all turned and locked onto Xu Si in mid-air, his scarlet figure reflected deep in his pupils, filled with violence, pain and a primal hunger.

【Characteristics: Core Roots, Painful Gaze, Corrupting Blood Veins】
[We strongly advise you to stay away from this place immediately!!!]
really!
Xu Si's pupils contracted slightly. Far from being afraid, a burning fighting spirit surged within him.
Level 4 Mysterious Mother Plant, this is the real "feast"!
