The group fell silent, as the scene they had just witnessed provided them with the answer. The sheer quantity of these vines and the amount of bloodstains indicated that many cultivators had perished here.
At this moment, the group realized that the Battle for Supremacy was much more dangerous than they had previously imagined. It wasn't just during battles with other cultivators that they needed to be cautious, but even the unknown plants here required extra care. A moment of carelessness could cost them their lives.
Li Yangbing quickly consumed a pill, and her pale complexion improved slightly. "Master, what in the world are these vines? I have never heard of them before."
The white lion wore a grim expression. This thing was truly too bizarre and beyond their understanding.
Baili Hongzhuang shook her head. "I have never heard of them either. The situation now is different from a thousand years ago, and many demonic beasts and plants have changed. We can't make a judgment."
However, since nobody else had heard of them either, it indicated that these things were rare.
The group's stamina continued to deplete. Hindered by these vines, they didn't even have time to form hand seals, only able to constantly slash and kill.
Unfortunately, the quantity of these vines was enormous, and their regenerative ability was fast. If they continued like this, it wouldn't be long before they exhausted themselves and perished.
"We can't go on like this," Baili Hongzhuang said, her brows furrowed. Several disciples in the team had already been injured under the assault of these vines.
The bloodsucking was incredibly draining on the cultivators' bodies. Even with the use of blood replenishing pills, it would take some time to fully replenish their blood.
"We'll form two circles. The outer circle will consist of five people and the contract beasts to deal with the vines, while the inner circle of five people will be protected to unleash their martial techniques. These vines can only be severely damaged by large-scale martial techniques!" Baili Hongzhuang proposed.
Hearing Baili Hongzhuang's words, everyone's eyes lit up. This seemed to be the only way now. If they relied on continuously killing the vines, they would be busy for who knows how long.
Soon, the group formed two circles, with Baili Hongzhuang positioned in the outer circle. Although her martial techniques had strong attacking power, if the outer circle was composed of cultivators with weaker strength and the vines broke through to the inner circle, their efforts would be in vain.
The white lion stood beside Baili Hongzhuang, its claws directly severing one vine after another, moving even faster than cultivators using swords.
Li Yangbing remained in the outer circle. Her injuries had improved somewhat, but her complexion was still pale. The other two cultivators had also been injured.
It wasn't because their combat strength was insufficient; it was simply that they couldn't see the vines' sneak attacks in the darkness of the night. If they were caught off guard and dragged away, they would be powerless, waiting for their teammates' rescue.
Baili Hongzhuang understood that if it were a team from Tian Gang Sect facing these vines, the probability of injury would be greatly reduced. The experience gained from the Blood Abyss had already made them accustomed to being ambushed.
As long as there was a slight movement, they would react immediately. Thus, the possibility of being ambushed was greatly diminished.
This highlighted the importance of training sensitivity. It might not be evident in ordinary times, but it could save their lives in critical moments.
