1023 Defeat One by One, Continue Deeper



The Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower excelled in the Spiritual Element and possessed a high IQ.

Especially those powerful Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers that had reached a 17-star combat strength, their intelligence was higher, even surpassing many humans.

The moment they detected Liu Yan's return to actively hunt them down, the remaining six powerful 17-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers realized the peril and scattered to flee.

It seemed their original formation that encircled Liu Yan was not just for surrounding him, but also for facilitating their escape when facing Liu Yan's proactive hunting.

The two Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers with 17-star combat strength that Liu Yan had just dealt with had already sensed the danger and attempted to escape instantly.

However, they were helpless. Liu Yan's speed was too terrifying.

Even though they recognized the danger and made the optimal choice instantly, when faced with absolute power, it was all in vain.

At this point, Liu Yan noticed the intention of these powerful Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers to flee, and naturally, he wouldn't let them have their way.

Liu Yan deployed his SSS-grade special equipment, Wings of the Wind God, and pursued it rapidly.

On the way, confronting numerous ordinary 14-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers, Liu Yan relied on his SS-grade weapon, the Blue Flame Gloves, to engage in continuous combat, crushing his way through.

At this moment, Liu Yan no longer concerned himself with the forest's destruction and freely utilized the fire attribute elemental powers to deal with these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.

Previously, Liu Yan refrained from using fire attribute elemental powers mainly due to consideration for the Withered Tree Spirits.

However, this was the deeper part of the Hallucinatory Forest, the habitat of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers. It had no bearing on the Withered Tree Spirits.

Thus, Liu Yan naturally didn't need to be overly cautious.

Moreover, when the situation became truly dire, Liu Yan wouldn't be too concerned. He would prioritize himself.

As for the disruption of the surrounding ecosystem, what did it matter to Liu Yan?

Liu Yan was already exceedingly powerful. He could easily overwhelm these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.

Now, with the complete suppression of the fire attribute elemental powers against these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers, they were even more defenseless against Liu Yan.

These numerous 14-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers were like decorations before Liu Yan, and he pursued them without restraint.

Under Liu Yan's swift pursuit, he quickly caught up to a Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower with 17-star combat strength.

Naturally, during this process, hundreds or even thousands of 14-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers were handled by Liu Yan without any difficulty.

After catching up, Liu Yan immediately took ruthless action without hesitation.

[S-grade skill, Absolute Unrivaled, activated!]

Absolute Unrivaled was a comprehensive skill that encompassed both offense and defense. It was employed in conjunction with the SS-grade weapon, the Blue Flame Gloves, and Liu Yan's mastery of Fire Secret Art.

A profusion of intense fire attributes elemental powers incessantly emanated.

The surrounding ordinary Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers were swiftly eradicated.

Liu Yan's assault also arrived promptly.

This 17-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower intended to resist, but it had no power to oppose Liu Yan's might.

Originally unequal to Liu Yan's strength, now facing his formidable fire attribute elemental powers, it was even more powerless and was vanquished in an instant.

After dealing with the third potent Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower, Liu Yan continued without pause.

While the other powerful Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers fled in different directions, they had already distanced themselves from Liu Yan during this process.

However, Liu Yan relied on his formidable strength and fire attribute elemental powers to navigate through the sea of ordinary Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers, almost as if he was moving through an uninhabited space.

Thanks to the terrifying speed of the SSS-grade special weapon, the Wings of Wind God, he could still easily catch up.

After all, these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers were not particularly skilled in speed.

Liu Yan replicated his actions, systematically catching up to each of these potent Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers, and dispatching them one by one.

In a short while, the seven powerful 17-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers had been sequentially taken care of by Liu Yan.

Now, the last remaining Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower with an 18-star combat strength was more intelligent. After a brief escape, it abruptly changed direction and fled deeper.

There was a robust presence it could rely on in those depths.

Liu Yan unfurled the SSS-grade Wings of Wind God, moving steadily towards the depths.

On his way, he efficiently dealt with the ordinary 14-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.

Employing fire attribute elemental powers made it considerably easier for Liu Yan to manage these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.

Even without utilizing the fire attribute elemental domain, merely employing his fire attribute elemental powers, Liu Yan found it effortless to address and advance through them.

As they proceeded deeper, the Withered Tree Spirit King began to have a sense of unease and cautioned Liu Yan.

"That Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower with 18-star combat strength is heading in this direction."

"But after reaching a certain depth, it stopped. It seems there's something there."

"I can't perceive the specifics, but I can faintly feel the presence of some potent entity."

"In this forest, only a being with immensely strong spirit energy and power exceeding my own could elude my senses."

The Withered Tree Spirit King shared its analysis with Liu Yan.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yan quickly grasped the situation.

The Withered Tree Spirit King's strength had already reached an 18-star combat strength.

Furthermore, the Withered Tree Spirit King's perception was incredibly acute, particularly within this forest.

Given that the entity ahead could evade the Withered Tree Spirit King's perception, it was undoubtedly endowed with tremendous spirit energy Additionally, its power surpassed that of the Withered Tree Spirit King.

From this perspective, the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower ahead had a combat strength of at least 19 stars, undoubtedly a formidable opponent.

Liu Yan was well aware that facing such a powerful entity came with certain risks. However, having come this far, with just one step left, Liu Yan wasn't inclined to give up easily.

Despite the potential strength of the upcoming adversary, Liu Yan wanted to move forward and test his capabilities. If it turned out that he wasn't a match, he could always choose to retreat and live to fight another day.

Liu Yan wasn't fully confident in his ability to defeat the powerful entity ahead, but he had complete confidence in his ability to escape and survive.

Thus, Liu Yan activated the SSS-grade Wings of Wind God and pressed forward.

After advancing a distance, Liu Yan noticed that the overwhelming number of Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers ceased attacking him. They even cleared a path for him, seemingly uninterested in conflict.

As Liu Yan continued deeper into the area, the ordinary Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers became increasingly scarce, eventually disappearing.

This region was beyond the reach of ordinary Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.

The Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers couldn't impede Liu Yan any longer. It appeared that they realized this, refraining from attacking him further to avoid additional casualties.

Guided by the SSS-grade Wings of Wind God, Liu Yan flew at low altitudes through the forest.

The environment differed from what he had encountered earlier.

The external forest was sparsely populated with trees due to the profusion of Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers. Few other plants could be seen amidst the sea of these carnivorous flowers, which seemed to hinder the forest's growth.

Yet, the scene here was completely different.

Firstly, Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers were nowhere in sight.

Secondly, this forest resembled genuine primordial woodlands, teeming with an abundance of flora and trees.

This forest boasts exceptional biodiversity, housing a myriad of plant species. Yet, these were ordinary flowers and trees, not monstrous entities.

Liu Yan was unfamiliar with most of them, as they were plants he hadn't encountered on Blue Planet.

Even within the Wind Barrier, these various flowers and trees were remarkably obscure, and rarely seen.

However, the Withered Tree Spirit King informed Liu Yan that many of these plants were precious materials. Once the battle concluded and he had free time, Liu Yan could gather some of them, as they were genuine treasures.

Liu Yan naturally agreed. According to the Withered Tree Spirit King, these uncommon and lesser-known plants were invaluable entities. Missing out on collecting them was out of the question. He aimed to gather as many as possible, foreseeing their potential utility in the future.

Of course, these considerations were for post-battle moments. Currently, a significant confrontation awaited Liu Yan. Naturally, he couldn't divert his focus towards these matters.

Liu Yan refrained from indulging in the surrounding scenic beauty. He pressed forward cautiously.
