During the struggle, Du Jiujiu's thigh suddenly touched a cold and hard object, which suddenly lifted her spirits.

"This is... a scimitar! By the way, why didn't I think of that just now!!"

Only then did Du Jiujiu remember that she was holding the scimitar that An Cheng had given her before leaving. If she had a sharp weapon in hand, the giant cocoon surrounded by tough and tight vines would no longer be unbreakable.

Du Jiujiu endured the huge pain from her skin and used all her strength to squeeze her arm through the gap between the wriggling vines.

The moment her fingertips touched the scimitar, all the anger she had accumulated was vented.

"Go to hell!!" Du Jiujiu shouted angrily, all the muscles in his body bulged, and he slashed out with his scimitar.

As the light reappeared in front of her eyes, the vines wrapping her body were immediately cut into two pieces and fell to the ground one after another.

After escaping from the giant cocoon surrounded by vines, the first thing that caught his eye was Hu Xiaoyun, who was entangled in the vines.

Although there were only a few vines, it was extremely difficult for Hu Xiaoyun's physical strength to break free.

Just when Du Jiujiu was about to rush over to rescue her, Hu Xiaoyun glanced at her deeply, and then a dazzling fire broke out from her body, covering Hu Xiaoyun and the vines on her body.

"Sister Xiaoyun!!" Du Jiujiu's eyes were fixed on the flame.

Until the fire light gradually dissipated, a figure slowly emerged.

The long fiery red hair was wrapped in the air flow heated by the flames and undulated in mid-air. The scorching flames did not harm them at all.

Hu Xiaoyun raised her hands, and the flames on her body were put back into her palms.

It was only then that a trace of blood returned to her pale face.

And her gaze was firmer than ever.

"Jiujiu, I don't want to be a burden anymore!"

When trapped by vines, Hu Xiaoyun struggled for a long time but was unable to break free.

She wanted to give up and resign herself to fate.

But after seeing that Du Jiujiu was able to escape from those giant cocoons that were entangled like a cage, she suddenly felt that she was so inferior compared to Du Jiujiu who would never admit defeat.

Obviously we are experiencing the end of the world together and encountering dangers together, but every time we are in danger, we are the ones who are saved.

She is not willing to give in!

She doesn't want to be just a burden forever!

Since her hands can gather flames, so can her body. She can make a bet that the flames will not hurt her. If she wins, she can be saved; if not, her fate will be reduced to ashes like those vines.

Fortunately, she did not lose.

Du Jiujiu opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, the vine that attacked her had sprouted new branches again, reaching out toward the two of them precariously.

"This thing doesn't know how to live or die!" Du Jiujiu swung the scimitar fiercely. This time, with her previous experience, she carefully avoided the thin tendrils coming from these purple-red vines and cut off the vines directly.

After the purple-red vines fell to the ground, new vines were still desperately stretching out from the fracture.

This time, the growth rate of the vines has obviously slowed down a lot, but it still clings to them and prevents them from leaving.

"It's going to be endless if this goes on!" Du Jiujiu's tone began to become a little impatient. As time passed by, her patience was almost exhausted.

Hu Xiaoyun, who was condensing fireballs on the side, looked at the vines that were constantly regenerating, and suddenly he had an idea and thought of a way.

"Jiujiu, these vines must have roots! As long as we destroy their roots, they may die!"

"That's right!" Du Jiujiu, who was fighting with the vines, was convinced after hearing this.

Du Jiujiu used her astonishing eyesight to scan around the criss-crossing vines, and immediately found the densest part of the vines.

"That's it!" She stood up suddenly, with lightning speed, splitting the layers of mutated vines, and rushed over in the blink of an eye.

"Break it!" Du Jiujiu shouted, took the scimitar back to his waist, clenched his palm into a fist, and smashed it to the ground.

With a loud noise, the ground sank deeply, and a dense and wriggling root system was revealed in the pit.

"Sister Xiaoyun, it's now!!"

When Du Jiujiu started to act, Hu Xiaoyun began to gather flames. At this time, the scorching fireball was floating in her hand, ready to go.

After receiving Du Jiujiu's order, Hu Xiaoyun swung his arm out without hesitation, controlled the fireball to break through the air with his mind, and hit the exposed roots with lightning speed.

Heavy waves of heat hit both of their faces.

The surrounding grass blades were blown layer by layer, like undulating green waves.

Du Jiujiu stood quietly by the side, watching the mutated plant completely turn into ashes.

"Jiujiu! Your face..."

After cutting off the vines by the roots, Hu Xiaoyun had time to take a closer look at Du Jiujiu. However, this look shocked her.

Du Jiujiu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then she remembered that she had just been trapped in a giant cocoon surrounded by vines, and her exposed skin was covered in mucus oozing from the vines.

It was better when she didn't mention it, but now as soon as her attention returned to herself, she felt burning pain all over her body.

Du Jiujiu looked down and saw that her arms and thighs were covered with a series of blisters, and the surrounding skin was also red. She looked very human.

Don't think too much, her face probably won't be much better.

However, when her life and safety are not guaranteed, how can she be in the mood to worry about whether her face looks good or not.

"I'm fine. Let's get out of here quickly. I'm worried that there may be vines lurking nearby."

Seeing that Du Jiujiu didn't care, Hu Xiaoyun stopped staring at her face. She only hoped that Du Jiujiu's super recovery ability could make the injury on her face heal faster.

"Okay, let's leave now. We were careless just now. It seems that animals are not the only ones in danger in this forest."

Hu Xiaoyun took a deep breath and adjusted his posture slightly.

Her superpowers had been consumed a lot in the battle just now, and she could already feel the fatigue coming from deep within her body.

Although Du Jiujiu was injured, her mental state seemed to be better. After confirming that there were no other dangers around, she pushed aside the scattered vine branches on the ground and picked up the long knife hidden underneath.

The long knife was covered with sticky thin whiskers. Du Jiujiu picked a soft leaf from a low branch. After a lot of effort, he wiped the long knife clean and fixed it on his back again.

For so many days in the wild, they have never seen any aggressive plants. They even forgot that these plants on the earth are now ever-changing and different from the past.
