"What? Tree roots?"
Hearing this, the few people's faces changed, and only then did they suddenly realize.
That's right, the tree canopy didn't look that huge, but the roots underground could be spread throughout the entire village, which also explained why they had encountered countless vines erupting from underground attacking them.
"Team Leader Qin, if it's the tree roots, how come we can't escape this Ghost Domain?"
Chen Ruoqing panted and asked in confusion.
"That's unclear. Perhaps once we stepped inside, the tree roots started affecting our senses."
Qin Long glanced at her and rarely gave an answer.
In fact, before coming, he had already received data sent from headquarters.
He knew that behind Chen Ruoqing there was allegedly a mysterious Ghost Tamer.
Moreover, the other party could even cause the Ghost Blackboard to break without being traced back, so naturally Chen Ruoqing was given special treatment.
If it were someone else, with his current state, he probably wouldn't even bother.
"So, to solve this Paranormal Incident here, we first need to deal with that tree."
Everyone looked at the banyan tree swaying in the dim light, like a huge ghostly shadow.
"How do we deal with it?"
Xue Qian asked.
"Cut it open!"
"Cut it open?"
All four's expressions changed simultaneously. This banyan tree was over thirty meters tall, how could they possibly cut it open?
"Not cut it completely, but to injure the banyan tree enough to create a slight crack in the Ghost Domain."
Qin Long said seriously, "Then my Ghost Blade can stretch its head through this crack and directly take you all out."
"Before, I hadn't tried yet, but those roots dragged me into the grave."
"This plan works!"
Xue Qian coughed and nodded, "Your Ghost Blade is sharp enough; it should be able to cut an opening.
Before that, we just need to help fend off the roots' attacks."
"Alright, let's do it this way!"
Pang Ling also nodded. Under this situation, it was the best plan.
With three captain-Tier Ghost Tamers agreeing, Chen Ruoqing naturally had no objection.
"Stay close to me. Don't go beyond the range covered by the Ghost Smoke."
Pang Ling warned Chen Ruoqing and took the lead moving out.
Her Ghost Smoke had the ability to distort perception, making the roots' attacks deviate in direction.
"Go!"
Xue Qian carried Qin Long, and the four walked together toward the big banyan tree in the center of Fengmen Village.
Boom boom boom!
The ground shook, and countless vines started shooting out from the graves.
They looked like living creatures.
Endless and dense, numbering in the hundreds or thousands.
Swish swish!
The first wave of roots attacked, but under the Ghost Smoke's cover, most of the vines automatically deviated.
Still, over a hundred roots rushed out, aiming at the four.
Seeing this, Xue Qian had already prepared and spat out a large mouthful of blood.
The fresh blood sprayed and stained the flying roots.
Immediately, the roots that were flying began to wither and decay rapidly, eventually rotting away as if after enduring many years.
But even so, some vines still rushed toward the group.
At that moment, Chen Ruoqing's Ghost Hair surged out and started wildly strangling these vines.
Pfft pfft pfft!
The roots were crushed continuously, and the efficiency was even higher than Xue Qian's ability just now.
This made the three captains glance at Chen Ruoqing with more attention.
It turned out that this girl, backed by a mysterious existence, was also a powerful Ghost Tamer herself.
The first wave of attack had just been crushed, and the second wave quickly arrived.
At their current pace, they would have to withstand at least three waves of attack to get within ten meters of the banyan tree.
Ten meters was the effective range of Qin Long's Ghost Blade.
Before that, he could not strike and had to save his strength.
Pfft pfft pfft!
The second wave was also repelled by Chen Ruoqing and the other two using the same method.
But after continuously using the Malevolent Ghost abilities, the three felt the restlessness of the Malevolent Ghost inside their bodies.
Especially Chen Ruoqing; the bloody, mangled ghost face behind her head smiled more and more ferociously.
Strangely, her Ghost Hair grew longer than before, seemingly starting to coil around her body.
This was a sign of the Malevolent Ghost's revival, but at this moment Chen Ruoqing couldn't care about much.
Only by holding off the roots' attacks could Qin Long have a chance to strike, and only then would they have a chance to survive.
The third wave arrived; Ghost Smoke and the leprosy ghost attacked again.
Chen Ruoqing followed closely behind.
Fortunately, the Malevolent Ghost's attack patterns were very fixed, not as variable as humans.
Under heavy consumption, the three finally successfully blocked the third wave.
At that moment, they had completely entered the ten-meter radius around the big banyan tree.
"Now!"
Xue Qian shouted low, pushing Qin Long forward.
Qin Long's thin body staggered a few steps, and then he opened his mouth wide.
Ah!
A handle, black as ink and exuding a corpse stench, was suddenly spat out of his mouth.
He grabbed it with his palm and pulled it sharply.
Shiiing!
A short knife less than thirty centimeters long was drawn out.
Though called a short knife, it looked more like a dagger.
Taking advantage of the moment, Qin Long raised it and swung it down on the banyan tree's trunk.
Pfft!
The blade fell, but Qin Long started to vomit, a beating heart being spat out forcibly.
The heart fell to the ground, then strangely turned black, rotted, and finally crumbled into dust.
Every time the Ghost Blade was used, the cost was one organ.
Qin Long's survival until now was entirely because of the ghost mist inside his body.
The ghost mist could fog his body, making organs somewhat unnecessary.
That was also why he could be locked in a coffin for days without dying.
Obviously, now was not the time to elaborate on the ghost mist.
The blade fell without any flashy glow.
But on the huge banyan tree's trunk, a crack suddenly appeared.
The crack grew longer and wider, as if about to saw the entire tree in half.
At the same time, the strange darkness covering Fengmen Village suddenly began to dissipate.
"Now!"
Qin Long roared as endless ghost mist surged out from his body, turning into fog and rushing wildly, trying to find the breach.
However, just at that moment, an unexpected change occurred.
