I have a set of monster experience cards

You Huan was no longer planning to track Shadow, but this guy unexpectedly appeared in front of him again.

Obviously, Shadow could not forget the loss he suffered in the previous battle, and perhaps Shadow also coveted the four precious teeth he possessed.

Since Shadow appeared on his own initiative, he naturally chased after him.

Seeing him wading through the river to chase after him, the shadow disappeared into the jungle again.

Although this behavior is highly suspected of being a trap, perhaps Shadow has prepared a trap for You Huan, just as You Huan prepared a trap for the rock-armored beast.

But You Huan also prepared some things to deal with the shadow.

Just like the time with the rock-armored beast, both sides were confident.

Who lives and who dies, who wins and who loses, all depends on whose "bamboo" is taller than the other.

After putting the prey into the space card, he jumped into the jungle, searching for traces of the shadow.

The footprints on the ground were very shallow, and the shadowy land form seemed very light.

However, the shadow was not far away from him, and this little trace was enough for him to track it.

After crossing the trees blocking the way and pushing aside the vines, the shadow's scaly claws came into view again.

The two hunters chased each other in the jungle for a long time.

Until a certain moment, You Huan's eyes flashed, and several tentacles suddenly spread out to both sides along the direction of the wind.

The propulsion organs he had purposely proliferated were like little jellyfish. He exerted force on his body and faintly visibly emitted a purple-red energy glow with a blue tint. This caused him to speed up suddenly and shorten the distance with the shadow!
"Zizi..."

Arcs of electricity began to fly from the ends of some of the fluttering tentacles. Although they were quite clumsy compared to Shadow's discharges, they were also proof that he was gradually learning.

The tentacles all moved forward and grabbed Shadow's long, swaying tail.

In a flash, Shadow also turned his head, and his eagle-like oval and sharp eyes looked over silently.

Then, just before the tentacles touched it, it suddenly spread out its two pairs of wings——

"call--"

The shadow that turned into a giant eagle changed its angle almost 90 degrees and flew upwards along a big tree.

You Huan also braked immediately, changed into flying state, leaped lightly, and also soared straight up.

But compared to Shadow, he is still slightly inferior in changing angles.

By the time he rushed into the dense layer of leaves, there was no trace of the shadow.

"..."

The surroundings seemed to become quiet in an instant.

The leaves of tropical trees wove into layer upon layer of green curtains, so dense that it was impenetrable. He was completely covered by leaves from front to back, left to right, up to down.

The tangled branches, like some sinister serpent, wound across all his paths.

The shadow's movements completely disappeared.

It may be lurking, or it may have eliminated its movements through other means.

So You Huan knew that this area with dense leaves was the trap set for him by Shadow.

The means he prepared for Shadow required a preemptive strike, so let him see first what Shadow is capable of.

As soon as the thought came to mind, some rustling sound broke the silence.

"rustle……"

"rustle……"

"Swish..."

It seemed that in an instant, enemies came from all directions.

It was a sinuous sound, like something rough rubbing against each other and slowly sliding down the branches.

But when I looked around, there was nothing but brown branches and leaves of various shades of green.

--etc.

It's branches and green leaves!
The armored dragon suddenly retracted its dancing tentacles, floating among the intertwined branches. Its pupils shrank slightly, locking onto a long branch that was gradually approaching it.

"rustle……"

The dark brown branches, still with green leaves, parasitic vines, and even traces of insect infestation and bird pecking, slowly, slowly moved closer.

At a certain moment, they seemed to realize that the target had noticed their presence and suddenly increased their speed.

"Shh!"

At least fifty branches suddenly sprang up from all directions and crashed into the hunter trapped in the center!
You Huan did not dodge or evade the encirclement, and the tentacles also stretched out like lightning. The tentacles collided head-on with the branches, the former tightly wrapped around the latter, and the latter tried to wrap around his torso.

They were entangled and bound with each other, and in an instant a strange stalemate was formed.

However, this was only You Huan's first step.

After firmly fixing the position of the branch with its powerful tentacles, it swung its tail.

"Zheng!"

The original heavy hammer quickly deformed and turned into more than a dozen long and sharp blades.

A flash of cold light appeared among the thick green.

Nine branches were cut in the middle and fell onto the leaves with a clatter!

Then he swung his tail to the right, and several more branches were cut off.

"Swish..."

Just as he was trying to cut off all the active branches, more intensive winding and rubbing sounds appeared.

In an instant, the entire layer of leaves near the tree canopy and the entire jungle seemed to have turned into a living hell for the trees.

Countless branches, vines, and aerial roots crawled over the green background and reached out.

This is a plant hunter that is rarely seen in other seas.

In the vast ocean, all living creatures are trying desperately to evolve, trying hard to reach a higher level in the food chain, and some plants are also joining in.

They have evolved bodies capable of movement to prey on careless herbivores and foreign hunters who stray into their environment.

But in fact, You Huan is not a good target for them.

He is extremely powerful, has weapons that can cut through branches, and even his poison is effective against plants.

Even if these plants could kill him, they would surely consume a large amount of their bodies and energy before doing so, which is not worth it.

After he cut off so many branches, the plant should have given up.

Through photosynthesis, they can survive longer than most hunters and should not have evolved such aggressive personalities.

A guess emerged in You Huan's mind.

...Shadow, perhaps it can control plants to a certain extent.

Is this its ability?
As he was thinking, dense branches entangled him, and gradually, his figure was wrapped in green...

After a while, the leaves began to rustle, and a shadow in the shape of a giant eagle fell.

A thick branch came forward and provided a place for it to rest.

It stood there, motionlessly looking at the giant cocoon formed by the branches in front of it, as if thinking about how to remove the Xi tooth from You Huan's body.

As if it had come up with a plan, it tilted its head to look at the big trees around it and opened its mouth slightly.

Deep inside the needle-like teeth, there is a triangular tooth with a hollow center embedded in the throat.

The hollow teeth vibrated slightly as it emitted a sound wave that was outside the frequency range of most hunters' sounds.

The sound passes through the pores in the center of the teeth, just like air flow passing through a musical instrument and being given musical sound, turning into a wonderful piece of music.

Only some activated plants can hear music in this frequency band.

Following the music, the branches began to move in an orderly manner, sending the giant cocoon of the target wrapped in shadow to a certain direction.

When the giant cocoon was being transported and was closest to the shadow, a slight sound seemed to come from inside the cocoon.

Shadow didn't miss the sound and with a look of concentration, he immediately called out to instruct the branch to stop.

At the same time, the crystal tentacle on the left was gently raised, and a large piece of blue electric light flashed like a stream of fire. It could be vaguely seen that there was a small thing in the light.

Everything is ready. It narrowed its eyes and listened carefully to the movements in the giant cocoon.

“Swish… swish…”

That is……

"boom!"

A sharp blade several meters wide stretched out from the inside of the giant cocoon, was lifted upwards, and suddenly split the giant cocoon into two!
It can be clearly seen from the cracked cocoon that except for the outermost branches which remain intact, all the branches inside have withered and turned black, as if infected by some kind of poison.

Shadow's pupils shrank slightly.

There was no time to react, and what emerged from the cocoon was not a giant armored dragon, but a vast expanse of darkness that enveloped it. (End of this chapter)
