At the same time, faint sounds came from the entire cave, as if something was quietly cracking.
Then, countless stones began to fall from the cave ceiling, hitting the ground with loud thuds.
"Everyone, back off!" Lin Yang shouted loudly upon seeing this, waving his hand to signal everyone to retreat.
However, with the cave about to collapse, everyone's hearts were in their throats.
In this critical moment, Lin Yang suddenly waved his hand, and a powerful force erupted from his body, directly breaking through the collapsing cave ceiling...
Then, he led everyone into the air and escaped the collapsing cave.
Only after the cave completely collapsed did the group stop, still shaken.
Looking back, one could see an enormous vine snake standing atop the ruins.
It is a kilometer long and hundreds of meters thick, and is extremely terrifying.
Its massive body completely filled the surrounding glaciers, as if it were the master of those glaciers.
"Damn it, just looking at this thing makes me sick." Fatty Wang said, disgusted by the constantly flowing vines.
Hu Bayi said, "Don't even mention you, I find it disgusting too."
He said, "This thing is fucking terrifying."
At this point, not only them, but also Sherry Yang and the others were disgusted.
Of course, I was also shocked.
The main reason was that they never expected there to be such a terrifying existence here.
Lin Yang looked at the creature, then said to everyone, "Everyone be careful, this thing is poisonous."
Although he only glanced at it, Lin Yang discovered that the fused vines had produced toxins.
Chapter 183: The Poisonous Mist Corroding the Flesh
Hearing Lin Yang's words, everyone was startled and looked at each other in bewilderment.
They probably didn't expect these vines to be poisonous.
But soon they no longer needed to doubt it.
Wisps of green mist had already snaked upwards along the vines and spread rapidly.
This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard, and they all retreated.
Hu Bayi reacted quickly. His expression was solemn, and as he dodged rapidly, his hands formed hand seals while he chanted incantations.
As he finished his final hand seal, a faint light curtain appeared out of thin air.
Enveloping everyone within it, the green mist isolated them from the outside world.
Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang couldn't help but reach out and touch the venom that was blocked by the light barrier.
In an instant, a sharp pain shot through his finger.
He quickly withdrew his hand and saw that a small hole had been corroded in his finger.
"Holy crap! This poison is incredibly potent!" Fatty Wang exclaimed.
Upon seeing this, everyone gasped in shock, their fear of the venom deepening.
Uncle Ming stared in horror at the green mist outside, his voice trembling as he said, "This...this poisonous mist can actually melt flesh?"
Although Peter Huang was also afraid, he still tried to remain calm and comforted Uncle Ming:
"Boss, don't worry. You know how capable Master Hu is, don't you?"
"This bare shell is definitely safe."
Han Shuna rolled her eyes: "You old codger, what are you afraid of? I'm not afraid, so why are you?"
Uncle Ming chuckled awkwardly and touched his nose. "Isn't this just being cautious? I can't die. If I die, who will pay off the debts?"
"Don't worry, no one else will die, not you." Lin Yang laughed and patted Uncle Ming on the shoulder: "You still have to help your son pay off his debts."
Lin Yang's words immediately embarrassed Uncle Ming, who scratched his head and said, "Mr. Lin is right, Mr. Lin is right."
Hu Bayi, standing to the side, looked at Lin Yang with a worried expression: "Boss, what do we do now? I feel like I can't hold on much longer."
As Hu Bayi spoke, everyone looked over.
When I looked at it, I was really shocked.
All that could be seen was the light shell that was originally used to resist the poisonous fog, which was now being continuously eroded.
The surface of the shell seemed to be swallowed up by something, constantly diminishing.
Lin Yang frowned, looked around, and then took a deep breath: "Since we can't defend, we have no choice but to take action."
After saying that, he stretched his limbs and looked at everyone: "You all wait here, don't go out."
Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this, and then looked at Lin Yang.
Lin Yang did not hesitate at all.
"I'll go test the waters," Lin Yang said, and walked straight out.
Upon arriving outside the light shell, he felt himself enveloped by a large amount of poisonous mist.
Countless poisonous fumes frantically tried to corrode his body.
However, these things were of no use to Lin Yang.
It didn't even cause Lin Yang to break his skin.
"This poisonous fog is so annoying," Lin Yang said, opening his mouth wide.
He instantly inhaled countless toxic fumes.
The poisonous mist was like a long snake, which he continuously devoured.
At this rate, the vines couldn't even absorb the poisonous mist as quickly as Lin Yang could.
Chapter 184: Someone is controlling these vines
Presumably knowing that the poisonous fog had no effect on Lin Yang, they simply stopped releasing the vines altogether.
It seems they are gathering strength, preparing to launch a more intense attack.
A chilling atmosphere permeated the surrounding air, sending shivers down one's spine.
"What happened? I'm still hungry," Lin Yang said, somewhat disappointed.
As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Bayi saw that no poisonous fog was coming and carefully canceled the light shell.
"Boss is awesome! Boss is mighty!" Fatty Wang, that good-natured guy, jumped out and shouted excitedly.
Uncle Ming and the others also emerged from their hiding place, praising Lin Yang highly:
"Mr. Lin, you are truly amazing. We were able to escape danger entirely thanks to you."
After listening, Lin Yang simply said, "We'll talk about flattery later; it's not over yet."
His tone exuded an unquestionable authority that compelled people to believe him.
Just then, the vines launched another attack.
Countless vines, like giant dragons, lashed out at this place with astonishing speed.
Everyone was within the vine's attack range, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
If we're talking about the most relaxed one, it's definitely Lin Yang.
He simply stood there, and whenever the vines attacked him, they were interrupted by the arcs of electricity emanating from his body.
The moment those vines touch the electric arc, they crackle and pop, then turn to ashes.
Next up was Fatty Wang, who was as strong as a rock and managed to withstand the vine's whip.
The body of him kept making thumping sounds, as if he were hitting an indestructible wall of bronze and iron.
Hu Bayi then unleashed his signature skill—the Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Secret Technique.
He muttered incantations, his hands forming hand seals, and then suddenly pushed forward, unleashing a surge of Five Elements power from his palms that blasted directly at the vines.
Sherry Yang was even more direct. She used her Mountain Moving Technique, bringing her hands together and then suddenly separating them. A huge rock appeared out of thin air and smashed directly onto the vines.
The boulder fell with a deafening roar, making the entire ground seem to tremble.
The ones who fared the worst were Uncle Ming and his group.
After all, they weren't from Pawnshop No. 8, and their power was limited.
Faced with the onslaught of vines, they could only barely manage to defend themselves.
In no time at all, they were hoisted up by those vines.
"Help! Mr. Lin, help!" Uncle Ming cried out for help repeatedly after being hoisted up.
His voice was shrill and terrified, which made people feel sorry for him.
Seeing this, Lin Yang shook his head, and more electric arcs appeared on his body again.
These electric arcs spread wildly, forming a huge electric grid that completely enveloped the vines.
A series of crackling sounds were heard, and all the vines were snapped by the electric arcs.
After Uncle Ming and the others were rescued, they all collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
Their faces were filled with terror and the joy of surviving a disaster.
“These vines are strange,” Lin Yang said. “It seems like someone is controlling them.”
His gaze was sharp as a knife as he scanned his surroundings, seemingly searching for the person who was controlling the vines.
Chapter 185: The Ghost Mothers of All Ages Appear
"Is someone manipulating this?"
Hu Bayi looked around, but couldn't even spot the person Lin Yang had mentioned.
