Chapter 75: Chapter 75: The Hypnotic Vine

Translator: 549690339

Too much vegetation, like a hollowed-out jungle, I had not realized upon first entering this overgrown, vine-entwined area just how complex the terrain was.

By the time I was deeply mired within, it was as if I were imprisoned in a cage made of plants!

Jin Minjun and his four junior sisters were trapped there, they had already summoned their dragons, but in this soft terrain that could give way underfoot, the strong dragons couldn’t even stand firmly.

And the dragons capable of flight found it difficult to spread their wings, let alone fly freely, as the tangled thorn vine nets and enormous branches pressing down from above restricted them.

This rift jungle was fraught with crisis from every corner!

The human-faced rats climbed down along the vines, approached stealthily through the thick layer of leaves and moss on the ground, and advanced under the cover of thick shrubs…

Their strange cries sounded as if they were right next to the ear.

The accidental touch of a cold leaf to the neck instilled a fear as if claws were holding one up!

I had been too careless.

Jin Minjun started to blame himself.

Normally, even if all the human-faced rats emerged from their nest, they would be no match for the Violent Dragon he had summoned, let alone the fact that each person in their group owned a True Dragon.

But trapped in such an environment, each human-faced rat posed a threat to their lives; a moment’s inattention could result in being gutted and eviscerated!

Jin Minjun kept a watchful eye on his surroundings, his spiritual power sensitivity allowed him to detect footsteps, even those far away could be heard by him.

It’s just a shame that under these circumstances, he could only hear movements within less than ten meters, and deadly traps lurked beneath the deceptive quiet of the rift!

“Junior sister, how are you all doing?” Jin Minjun whispered.

“Lu Xiaoyao has injured her knee and can’t move,” the short-haired girl said.

“Let your dragons just protect themselves, don’t move recklessly. The soil under our feet is very loose, and we might even sink further,” Jin Minjun said. “Senior brother, my eyes are almost unable to stay open…”

“Can’t keep your eyes open?” Jin Minjun didn’t quite understand what she meant, but soon he himself felt a strong wave of drowsiness hit him, making him extremely tired, as if he could just collapse onto the soft jungle floor.

Why was this happening??

Why was my whole body so weak and limp, my eyelids so heavy?

“Night vine??”

Finally, Jin Minjun noticed a dense green vegetation hanging on the rift walls, which extended into the area they were standing. The aromatic scent of its leaves brought about an overwhelming drowsiness! “Not good… Junior sisters… Cover your mouths and noses!”

“Junior sister!”

“Little Xiaoyao!”

Jin Minjun was alarmed and shouted several times in a row, but none of his junior sisters responded to him.

They were hypnotized! !

A large number of night vines were growing here, and it was also the den of human-faced rats, which meant that the highly-cultivated Night Vine Ratwolf demon also resided here!

With the sleep-inducing scent of the night vine and the added hypnotic effect from the Ratwolf, even some powerful Ancient Dragons might fall into a deep sleep.

“Zhu Minglang, Zhu Minglang, the junior sisters have been hypnotized, save them quickly!” Jin Minjun resisted the drowsiness and shouted up to Zhu Minglang, who was higher up.

“I’m surrounded!” Zhu Minglang’s voice came through, muffled.

“The Junior Sisters are going to have their innards gouged out, Zhu Minglang!” Jin Minjun yelled again.

Above the fault line, Zhu Minglang was now surrounded by more than a dozen Human-faced Rats, which seemed to think that he and Chu Yanyan were isolated, so they focused their attack on the two of them.

“Bai Qi, deal with them, I’m going down to rescue,” Zhu Minglang said.

“000h-

The Ice Morning White Dragon gazed at the lush vegetation around it, its star-like pupils extremely focused, yet carrying a hint of indifference and disdain.

It didn’t use wide-range Ice Morning Magic, as the thick layer of plants would act as a protective wall for the Human-faced Rats, giving them time to escape.

“Swish!!”

Suddenly, the Ice Morning White Dragon pounced like a white leopard; it pinned down a Human-faced Rat that had been lingering close by under its claws.

With one sweep of its icy claws, the Human-faced Rat was immediately cleaved in two, not even having time to let out a shriek.

“Hiss hiss hiss hiss!!!!!!”

A low growl sounded as a large Human-faced Rat appeared behind the Ice Morning White Dragon, trying to use its companion’s death as bait to launch a surprise attack at the Ice Morning White Dragon’s back!

“Swipe!!!!!!”

The dragon’s tail swept cleanly through the Human-faced Rat’s skull, moving so fast that only a needle-like shadow could be seen. When the Ice Morning White Dragon retracted its tail, it remained pristine, without a speck of dirt!

Zhu Minglang asked Chu Yanyan to stay on the upper level; with Bai Qi there, she should be safe.

He chose to slide down the hanging vines, but underneath was a dense vegetation cover, where not only the few Junior Sisters could not be seen, but even the Dragon Beasts they summoned were out of sight.

“Little Qingzhuo, do you have any way?” Zhu Minglang asked.

The Divine Green Holy Dragon flapped its wings and landed straight among those thick Night Vines, its head slightly raised, emitting a melodious chirp like a lark.

The singing seemed to be a form of communication with nature, and the plants that had grown wildly began to spread apart slowly, like a receding tide, exposing the soil beneath the fault line.

At that moment, Zhu Minglang saw an Iron Claw Tiger Dragon. It let out a low growl, standing guard near a short-haired sister named Guan.

Sister Guan lay on thick leaves without any consciousness, while several Human-faced Rats loitered nearby, their mouths dribbling corrosive saliva, seemingly eager for the body of the female Dragon Shepherd, to tear her open and devour her innards!

For monster kinds, Dragon Shepherds were like Cultivators among humans. If ordinary Human-faced Rat monsters devoured a Dragon Shepherd, it was like eating hundreds of people, and their cultivation base would likely increase by at least five or six hundred years.

No wonder, even with an Iron Claw Tiger Dragon beside her, they had no intention of leaving.

“Big Black Tooth, Big Black Tooth!”

Zhu Minglang realized he had no dragons by his side and called out in a hurry.

“Oh oh!!”

Not far away, Big Black Tooth indeed responded, but it seemed to have fallen into a pitfall again, and was entangled by dense vines, like an insect trapped in a spider’s web.

The Black Azure Violent Dragon was out of the question, so Zhu Minglang turned to look at the Divine Green Holy Dragon beside him.

Little Qingzhuo indeed had other abilities; its vertical pupil flashed and the large tendrils above wrapped around the Human-faced Rats like tentacles, rapidly entwining them and hanging them upside down!

At this point, the Iron Claw Tiger Dragon struck like thunder, gutting all the bound Human-faced Rats, making them taste the pain they relished….
