. Lu Huai'an has passed away, leaving only Lin Pingtao, who was invited by Tang Ge yesterday evening before anyone else could, and he will probably go to see Gao Jiajun today.Ye Bufan smiled. "It seem...The next morning, after breakfast, everyone set out again.

Compared to yesterday, Novytskiy and his companions were much more cautious today, constantly on guard against their surroundings, afraid that something else might happen.

And though they had walked from morning until noon, there was nothing but calm.

But the further you went, the denser the forest became, until finally, the SUV could go no farther.

Novitskiy said, "Doctor Ye, what should we do"

Unconsciously, he had come to regard Ye Bufan as the leader of this team.

"It's fine, we're on the right track. We might not be able to pinpoint our location right now, but based on the distance, we should be close to our destination. Walking there shouldn't be a problem."

Then everyone got off the car and divided the supplies they brought into 10 large backpacks. Noviski and another 9 guards each carried a backpack, while Ye Bufan and the others traveled light on foot. They began their journey.

The vegetation here has been growing for hundreds of years. The ground is covered in about a foot of rotting leaves, and every step sinks deep into them, making the journey much more difficult.

Ye Bufan didn't care at all about this, Novitsky and the others barely dealt with it, but the other three women suffered.

The future is a cultivator, powerful in strength but with an average physical constitution. He walks rather laboriously.

But the little girl was stubborn, clenching her lips and not saying a word.

Philip and Sophia were the worst off, sweating profusely after barely an hour.

"Hey handsome, why don't you take a break I'm completely exhausted."

Sophia wiped the sweat from her forehead and then sat down on a large tree stump.

"Okay, everyone, take a rest."

At Ye Bufan's call, everyone stopped to rest.

Lily leaned back against a large tree, looking up and saying, "The vegetation here is so beautiful."

Sophia chimed in, "Yeah, it's like a fairy tale world here."

No wonder the two people sighed with emotion, the vegetation here is dense, every tree is dozens of meters high, and the colors are very eye-catching, just like jade carvings.

Above, all sorts of vines grew rampantly, cascading down from the trunk and making it even more breathtakingly beautiful.

In contrast, Novitskiy and the other nine guards had no time for sightseeing. They were all busy restoring their strength.

Just when everyone had relaxed their minds, a sudden change occurred. The vines on the trees seemed to come alive and surged towards the crowd in a wave. One guard who was resting under a tree was caught off guard. He was wrapped tightly by several vines and quickly lifted into the air.

Some people reacted quickly and dodged the first wave of attack.

It's a shame that these vines are too dense, completely covering the sky. There's nowhere to hide, and soon, the other guards were also caught by the vines and lifted into the air.

Novickis being a Heaven Tier martial artist, naturally wouldn't be bound by these ordinary vines. With a tremor of his inner energy, he turned the approaching vines into dust.

But these vines seemed endless, surging forward one after another. Just as he shattered a batch, more came pouring in, overwhelming him.

"Die!"

Novicksi roared, then unleashed a punch.

The powerful qi collided with the vines, once again transforming into a shower of debris that danced in the air.

Even so, he would still be at a disadvantage. Instantly, countless vines surged toward him, preventing him from drawing his sword to protect Lily and the others, leaving him no energy to save his own men.

Faced with the sudden attack, Weixian moved his mind, a large fireball appearing in his palm, ready to turn the vines to ash.

"No fire allowed." Sophia hid behind Ye Fan, her voice tense. "If we set these trees ablaze, we're finished."

Only then did he realize that the current environment was different from last night. Last night, the terrain was open, and even though there was a fire, it was under control.

But today is different, the surrounding trees are incredibly dense, and once they catch fire, the consequences would be very severe.

Thinking about this, she had a flash of inspiration and directly dispersed the Fireball spell.

"Oh, what are we going to do We have to save them!" Fili exclaimed nervously.

"It's okay, I got this."

Ye Bufan stretched out his right hand, and a palm-sized cyclone appeared in his palm.

"Break it for me!"

After a loud shout, the cyclone flew out, transforming into blades of wind as soon as it left Ye Bufan's palm. It slashed towards the surrounding vines like invisible daggers.

Others wouldn't think much of it, but the future was dumbfounded. To be able to use Wind Blade Technique to such an extent, how powerful must one's mental fortitude be

As if sensing the imminent danger, countless wind blades slashed out with a piercing whoosh, their power no less formidable than that of genuine swords.

Under this fierce onslaught, the vines were instantly chopped to pieces, turning into a shower of wood chips that fell to the ground.

At the same time, the vines on those guards also disappeared completely, falling from mid-air.

These people were also agile and, after freeing themselves from the vines' grasp, immediately recovered their cultivation. They fell to the ground unharmed.

"Doctor Ye, here you are again."

As Phili's cries rang out, countless vines surged in from all directions, clearly showing that the opponent was not giving up.

"Break it for me."

The future had already prepared for this, and at this moment, unleashed its incantations. Countless wind blades shot out, meeting the vines head-on.

However, her cultivation level was far inferior to Ye Bufan's. The wind blades only managed to cut through some vines but failed to stop their advance.

"Don't give up yet"

Ye Bufan let out a cold snort, and then a larger cyclone appeared in the air, transforming into a myriad of wind blades that swept outwards.

This time's Wind Blade technique was more powerful, almost instantly destroying the surrounding vines. Even the surrounding trees were not spared, turning into a sky full of wood chips in the violent wind blade.

After the storm, there was not a single tree within 50 meters of them.

Everyone around was shocked beyond words, no one had expected Ye Bufan's magic to be so powerful.

At the same time, I secretly rejoiced that there was such a powerful person accompanying me. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have encountered another major trouble today.

This Death Valley is really too eerie, how can even the trees become spirits and attack people.

Philip looked around, and saw that everything was calm. There were no more vines coming towards him, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

Only then did she realize she was holding onto Ye Bufan tightly. Her high chest pressed against his arm, and her face instantly flushed red. She quickly let go of her hands.

"Doctor Ye, what's going on Did these vines come to life Why are they attacking us"

Ye Bufan smiled slightly, his expression calm as he said, "Perhaps."

Nowinski said in a bewildered tone: "It's really strange. I only heard that the man-eating vines would attack people, but these vines and trees are obviously not man-eating vines."

Sophia said, "This is Death Canyon. There are too many strange things happening here. It's impossible to speculate with common sense."

Feili shivered and said, "No wonder so many people who came in before couldn't walk out alive. This place is really too weird. Luckily we had Dr. Ye with us this time, otherwise everyone would have died here..."

Others were extremely in agreement with her words, their eyes looking at Ye Bufan filled with gratitude and admiration.

And just then Sophia let out a scream, pointing to the trees ahead and shouting, "Look! What is that"."Yes!"Ye Bufan readily agreed. He came to the West for his own reasons this time, and didn't want to get involved in the conflict between the Divine Court and the Dark World, nor did he want to chang...
