Leng Yuexiu's voice seemed to ring in his ears, "Notify everyone to prepare for action."

Bai Mengyan smiled knowingly, standing in a circle with her teammates. "Don't worry, we're ready to act at any time, just give the order."

Leng Yuexiu laughed freely, "This old banyan tree probably knows it won't live much longer, so it's delaying the progress to give the brothers some patience."

"clear."

Bai Mengyan relayed the situation to her teammates, and then waited quietly.

Everyone was silently counting down the time in their hearts when Bai Mengyan heard the sound of something shattering in her mind.

In addition to the fragmented, complex, and overlapping popping sounds, there was also the howling of a biting wind.

In an instant, Bai Mengyan realized that the commotion was coming from Leng Yuexiu's side, but Leng Yuexiu remained silent.

At this critical juncture, Bai Mengyan dared not disturb Leng Yuexiu's actions. She instinctively focused her mind into the channel opened by the ring, and spatial energy poured in, slowly merging with Leng Yuexiu's wind-based abilities.

Soon, Bai Mengyan reversed the channel that Leng Yuexiu had opened and finally took control, seamlessly switching over the energy required for spatial sensing as if the network had switched over without any issues.

As Bai Mengyan channeled her supernatural abilities, her consciousness emerged from the ring on Leng Yuexiu's side.

As soon as Bai Mengyan gained vision, she saw the brown-black spikes right in front of her, followed by a powerful attack like a wind drill bursting out from Leng Yuexiu's palm.

The pneumatic drill shattered the incoming cone-shaped spikes into powder. As the drill continued to advance, a shield of light naturally formed at its tail, truly a case of offense becoming defense.

Bai Mengyan controlled her consciousness to immediately pull back, hovering at Leng Yuexiu's shoulder.

With a thought, her consciousness emitted a faint light, like a firefly.

Bai Mengyan breathed a sigh of relief, "Too unfortunate to arrive. Did we succeed?"

Leng Yuexiu turned his head to look at the spot where Bai Mengyan's consciousness was hovering. He sensed that the ring was already enveloped by the familiar warmth and spatial attributes. He then focused all his energy on withdrawing his wind-type abilities and dealing with the mutated banyan tree.

"It was a bit more cunning than I thought. It hid the tree crystal when I was about to make my move, but it's not a big problem."

Leng Yuexiu's gaze sharpened, and he exerted force with both hands, raising the momentum of the pneumatic drill to a new level. It was like a tunnel boring machine drilling forward, crushing all the tree roots and soil blocking its way.

The jackhammer stopped at its designated position, and a violent aura of lightning suddenly rose from Leng Yuexiu's body. Even underground, covered by plant roots, the arrogance of lightning was still evident.

A crisp and invigorating thunderclap rang out, and a dark purple lightning python detached from Leng Yuexiu's palm, plunging straight into the main dagger that was attacking him.

Although banyan trees, which are associated with the wood element, are naturally effective against lightning, the power wielded by superhumans can, to some extent, transcend nature.

Of course, the "surpassing" mentioned here does not refer to power, but rather to the location of the attack and other aspects of energy utilization.

Even the most random lightning strikes will only occur during heavy rainstorms, and will not originate from underground.

Even though the roots and soil restrict the spread of lightning, its power remains. It will spread upwards along the main thorn until it penetrates the trunk and dissipates.

The paralyzing effect of lightning still works on plants; the plant roots that had previously blocked the tree crystal were all rendered immobile.

With a wave of his hand, Leng Yuexiu unleashed several even more ferocious wind slashes the instant the wind drill disappeared, shattering the obstructions into dust in no time.

In less than 15 seconds, the emerald green, heart-shaped tree crystal was revealed to the two of them.

Without any hesitation, while the intimidating effect of the Thunder Python was still present, Leng Yuexiu covered his hand with wind energy and then reached into the severed and broken root system.

Another gust of wind severed the connection between the tree crystal and the root system, and Leng Yuexiu quickly pulled the hand that was holding the tree crystal back.

To prevent the tree crystal from slipping out of his grasp, Leng Yuexiu also used wind energy to firmly envelop the tree crystal, so that anything that came near would be countered by the wind-based power.

The moment Bai Mengyan saw Leng Yuexiu succeed, she immediately used her true form to give a stern order: "Attack!"

She had already seen the mutated banyan tree launch a counterattack against Leng Yuexiu; his outstretched arm, reaching into the root system, was entangled by countless tentacles.

Leng Yuexiu used wind blades to clear a path, severing as many of the roots that were climbing up to control him as possible.

The obstacles formed by the tree canopy and the roots on the ground still exist, preventing Bai Mengyan from helping from such a distance with obstacles in between.

At this moment, she had to focus all her energy on the present, helping her teammates escape from the bottom of the tree canopy, leaving only a wisp of her consciousness with Leng Yuexiu.

Bai Mengyan tore a gap in the center of the group's encirclement. As soon as the spherical barrier was breached, the leaves and branches eagerly rushed in.

Cheng Kaixi immediately shoved a dazzling ball that could melt everything in its path.

The rampant, lush green growth that had surged in was completely suppressed, hissing as it did so. As the sphere of light penetrated downwards, a suffocating power surged from Bai Mengyan's body.

As she cleaved downwards with her blade, a gap was torn open in the layers of vegetation that enveloped them.

Su Jiancheng prepared to add a fireball to ignite the crack and widen it.

Bai Mengyan didn't give him that chance at all. Leng Yuexiu was in an emergency underground and didn't have time to wait for the flames to rage.

A pair of void claws appeared before everyone, each hand reaching deep into the rift and pulling forcefully to both sides, instantly tearing a hole in the spherical cage that trapped them.

Bai Mengyan jumped down first, seemingly without any concern about what lay below.

Bai Mengyan leaped down, Cheng Kaixi followed closely behind, and then Yan Lina and Black Eagle also jumped down from two different positions.

Actually, the order in which they jump is planned in advance. Black Hawk and Snow Leopard will definitely be the first to jump, and Snow Leopard's ice ability will provide strong protection in case of any emergencies.

Who knew that Bai Mengyan would go berserk, violently breaking through without giving anyone else a chance to consider anything.

The others then followed in a pre-arranged order, jumping down in pairs one after the other.

Everyone was freed from that spherical cage within ten seconds.

As the last two jumped, the barrier, which incorporated the sturdy properties of light, shattered.

In an instant, the cavity, which had lost its support, was swarmed full of leaves and branches clinging to the spherical barrier.

There was no light under the tree canopy; it was so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. The only smell was a pungent odor, a mixture of the strong smell of rotting earth, decaying leaves, and bitter foliage.

Before Cheng Kaixi even landed, she threw out three small spots of light for illumination.

As everyone landed and gathered together, three spots of light slowly rotated around them, providing illumination while dispelling harmful turbid air.
