The apocalyptic livestream attracted a lot of haters, alarming the government.

Seeing that a breach had been blasted open, Ye Xiao hurriedly shouted to prevent the hole from closing up:

"Quickly, use fire!"

Hearing Ye Xiao's shout, Han Yu and the others snapped back to their senses and quickly raised their muskets, spraying flames towards the hole.

After a period of burning, as the flames stopped and disappeared, the hole, which was more than a meter and a half long, was charred and fixed in place.

Ah Zhao quickly walked over there, craning his neck, holding a flashlight, and cautiously peering out of the cave entrance.

Seeing this, Ye Xiao also carefully approached and saw that the outside was empty. To be precise, the huge pit was enormous, with the exposed soil layer still two or three meters away from the entrance, and the roots of other plants could be seen on it.

A faint green light emanated from below, but within that light was a hint of vibrant red.

A commotion arose overhead. Ye Xiao raised his flashlight and shone it upwards, where he saw the intertwined black vines, resembling tentacles, thrashing wildly.

A petite figure darted and leaped swiftly through the gaps, brandishing her dark tentacles as she frantically battled the enormous vines.

"Ye Xing!"

Ye Xiao hurriedly called out.

The person who had just landed on the tree trunk in mid-air seemed to hear Ye Xiao's call and turned around in surprise.

"Ye Xing, I'm down here!"

Finally, those eyes pierced through the gaps in the countless vines and landed on Ye Xiao.

Immediately afterward, Ye Xiao saw Ye Xing suddenly push off with both legs and leap down towards him. His body twisted at a peculiar angle in mid-air to avoid the attack, and then he landed on the outer wall of the plant beside Ye Xiao.

"Ah, ah..."

Ye Xing tried hard to speak, but could only manage a series of labored "ah ah" sounds. He looked at Ye Xiao with pitiful eyes, clearly having suffered a great blow because of Ye Xiao and the others' disappearance.

Ye Xiao quickly smiled and reassured them, "It's alright, it's alright, we're all fine."

He pointed downwards and said, "Ye Xing, go and see what's down there."

Ye Xing looked down, nodded, and then leaped onto the exposed, broken earthen wall opposite. He grabbed onto the exposed roots and slid down.

Not long after, Ye Xing climbed up again, waved excitedly at Ye Xiao, pointed down and made strange gestures.

A-Zhao scratched his head, bewildered. "What does she mean?"

Ye Xiao looked for a moment and said, "She must be saying that the core part of this plant is below, and that we should go down."

"what?"

Han Yu, listening behind him, looked completely bewildered. "Wait, boss, you know sign language?"

Ye Xiao shrugged. "You'll know if you look closely!"

The white fox rolled its eyes from behind, "I don't believe you."

He craned his neck to look down, "So high? How do we get down?"

As he spoke, he glanced again at the earthen wall opposite, where roots were sticking out, and said:

"We ran out of parachute lines, but if we jump to the other side, we should be able to get down. The problem is, we still have so many supplies."

Ye Xiao glanced at the chainsaws in Old Ghost and White Fox's hands and said, "Let Ye Xing take them down first."

The heavy chainsaws were no problem for the petite Ye Xing. She simply wrapped her tentacles around the two chainsaws and climbed down to the bottom.

Ye Xiao and the others stood at the edge of the cave entrance, leaped towards the opposite side, and firmly grasped the outstretched roots before slowly climbing down.

Behind them was the stomach of a plant, which resembled a giant sac, and the group climbed down along its roots.

"Brother Ye Xiao, where are you going?"

Tyrannosaurus and his companions shouted as they watched the group climbing down from the cave entrance.

"We must deal with this damn thing! We're not coming empty-handed!"

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's voice, Tyrannosaurus Rex turned to look at Sun Hongxing and said:

"What do we do now? Go up there? Or follow them?"

Sun Hongxing looked up at the gap above and the edge of the cave, and said:

"We're all injured or crippled; going down will only cause trouble for Brother Ye Xiao and the others. Let's go up first."

Having made up their minds, the group slowly climbed up the pit wall.

As Ye Xiao and his group descended, the emerald green light grew stronger, and the crimson tinge mixed in with it became increasingly bright, turning the surrounding light into a bright yellow.

The flashlight was useless here; the huge, blood-red roots that plunged into the ground, like thick blood vessels, intertwined and pierced the ground and walls, as if weaving a giant spider's nest.

At the center of that intertwined structure was a huge pink fleshy pillar, six or seven meters wide. The pillar had a peculiar texture, resembling the roots of a plant, or the muscles and tendons of a living organism.

In the center, intense light seeped through, making the thick, fleshy pillar appear translucent, while in the center, a blood-red dot was pulsating.

Ye Xiao's gaze was fixed on that red dot. He grinned and pulled out a nuclear gun.

"Brothers, let's get to work!"

As he spoke, he pulled the trigger in the direction of the red dot.

The sound of gunshots rang out continuously.

"Load the muskets!"

At Ye Xiao's command, several streams of flame shot towards the blasted flesh.

A strange hissing sound suddenly came from the huge thing in front of them, which was hard to call either a living being or a plant.

Countless black vines surged down from above, and at the same time, black tentacle vines burst forth from the surrounding walls, lashing and sweeping towards the crowd.

Surprisingly, those dark tentacle vines sprouted mouth-like openings filled with sharp teeth.

Old Ghost and his men immediately picked up the chainsaw next to them and started the motor.

Boom boom!

With the roar of the motor, several men raised the blood-red chainsaw high and slashed at the black tentacles that were trying to attack, their rapidly spinning gears moving.

Ye Xiao, A Zhao, and Wang Yao continued to attack the huge red dot, spewing flames that roared and surged towards it, constantly scorching it.

Old Ghost, Big Black, White Fox, and Ye Xing stood by, blocking the vines that were lashing out wildly, while the fire serpents spewing from Han Yu's musket also dispersed the tentacles' frenzied attacks.

Soon, the wildly waving vines gradually became sluggish, and with that piercing and eerie hissing sound, the twisted tentacles gradually twitched and fell silent.

"Wait, stop, stop!"

Ye Xiao hurriedly called for Zhou Hu and Chen Ge to stop their fire-breathing actions. The group stopped abruptly, panting heavily and covered in sweat, as they looked at the area they had been attacking.

Large swathes of strange green liquid flowed everywhere, like ruptured amniotic fluid, emitting a green glow, flowing along the fleshy pillars and spiderweb-like red tendons.

The fleshy pillar was charred black, with a huge gash on it, from which crimson light shone.

"Ye Xing!"

Ye Xiao shouted, and Ye Xing immediately jumped up, came to the bloody wound, and stabbed out his right hand.

The sound of a sharp, piercing cut, like flesh being stabbed, sent chills down one's spine.

Then Ye Xing pulled out his arm, and a crimson object, resembling a heart and wrapped with green veins, was pulled out by Ye Xing.

The object was about the size of a watermelon, and it seemed to contain some strange substance, attracting everyone's attention.

Ye Xing's eyes were the most fervent, but she seemed to suppress the restlessness in her heart, and there was still a sense of fear and vigilance in her eyes towards the thing in her hand.

"give it to me!"

Ye Xiao extended his hand and spoke in a way that left no room for argument.

Ye Xing leaped and landed beside Ye Xiao, obediently presenting the item in her hands to him.

Ye Xiao put away the peculiar seed core with satisfaction, and then reached out to pat Ye Xing's head.

"So good!"

The viewers in the live stream felt a pang of sympathy.

[Three Foxes: Envy, jealousy, and hatred! Ye Xing is so well-behaved!]

[Han Jiangxue: What makes this anchor so special?! What makes this anchor so special?!]

[Crimson Night: Little sister, you've made a terrible mistake! You've chosen this shameless man as your brother!]

[The Heart of Isaac: Stop being envious and jealous, my sister is mine!]

[Elder cousin: Cousin, is that you, cousin?]

……

Ye Xiao looked at the noisy comments on the screen and couldn't help but laugh. He was just about to check the system notification when a sound suddenly came from above.

Hiss!

Everyone looked up at the sky.

Ye Xiao exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap, it cracked!"

The enormous sac burst open, and with the rushing water, it opened like a blooming flower.

A figure was revealed on the central pillar.
