Chapter 72: The Chaos Unfold, Fight the Demon Vine! (1)
Grrrr...
Click, click!
ROOaarr!!
Different kinds of roars echoed in the almost enclosed cavern as the beast created a rhythmic sound of footsteps as they charged toward the demon vine aggressively.
Thud, thud, thud! (Sounds of footsteps.)
Some of the beasts upon reaching their desired distance immediately halt their advancing before hastily casting all their skills toward the Demon Vine...
Boom! Swish!
Spitting acid, fireball, electric shock, and different kinds of spells began to bombard the vine, causing it to twist its vine in pure agony...
Still not done, beasts that focus on close combat began to bite, slash, and claw the wooden body of the demon vine, enlarging its wound in the process.
Although some of the beasts were caught in the middle of the bombardment of spells by the beasts behind them, the beasts close to the Demon Vine never wavered, on the contrary, they continued wounding the Demon Vine's body even if they were greatly injured...
Dying while giving their best to injure the beast.

Leo didn't give a glance at the notification that appeared in the corner of his sight nor did he smile for a bit after the successful cueing, instead he just continued staring at the distance solemnly.
His back was drenched in sweat and his eyes slowly turned bloodshot, on his forehead, a visible throbbing vein could be seen...
"I... could only hold for a while. This headache..." Leo mumbled silently, feeling his head turning heavy and dizzy.
Although the demon vine was slowly accumulating injuries, the beasts entering the cave were slowly decreasing. Although their number was still large, sooner or later, it was bound to stop.
"Leo, are you okay?" Kristine, seeing the sweat on Leo's forehead, couldn't help but ask worriedly.
Due to the thick fog hindering their vision, the group didn't see the strange thing happening in the distance nor realize that there were some changes in Leo's fog...
Although the fog seemed much thicker compared to earlier, the group didn't think too much of it.
Leo smiled contently before watching the unfolding chaos in the distance with great interest... Feeling that the Demon Vine's death is already set since it was slowly accumulating grievous injuries as time passed by.
Although it had an amazing recovery, with dozens of beasts dealing damage toward it...
Its high-speed recovery couldn't keep up with the pace of the injury it took every second!
***
Trashed... Trashing!
The trashing of the vines in the distance began to become heavy but lacked the necessary force to deal sufficient damage to the beasts encircling it.
If the Demon Vine had consciousness, then it probably already entered the so-called "Mental exhaustion" with its current condition, causing its vine to lack the agility it had earlier.
Swish! Thud!!
Somehow, as if feeling that it would die if it didn't change the situation around.
The Demon Vine immediately retracted its vines from the surrounding area before wrapping them tightly one by one toward its body, creating a huge ball of roots and vines in the end...
Swish!
Throb... Throb...
In an instant after wrapping its body.
Inside the tightly wrapped vines, a loud throbbing sound began to reverberate, forming a sound wave as it traveled inside the almost enclosed cavern unhindered.
Splack...
Thud...
Upon hearing the throbbing sound... All of the beast's blood boiled followed by their eardrums rupturing in unison, dyeing their ears with blood.
Some of the weak beasts below the Mid-Foundation realm (Level 5 below) instantly died due to their brain turning into mush.
"Ugh!"
Ding!

At the same time, due to their distance from the Demon Vine, the group only suffered mild dizziness and headache, causing them to groan uncomfortably.
