Chapter 695 (2/2)

The scene was akin to a pool of blood in hell, with countless arms stretching out from within.

It was both spectacular and eerie.

There were simply too many vines; if Lin Jing used the same method as before, it would be too troublesome.

Therefore,

this time Lin Jing activated the Divine Fire Triple Realm, and a purple flame rose up.

He spread a wide swath of flames in his hand, scattering them toward the vines that extended below.

On encountering Lin Jing’s purple flames, the vines quickly retracted, and some, unable to escape, caught fire instantly.

However, the flames did not persist for long, as the large trees severed the connection with the vines as soon as they began to burn.

Vines that lost their connection to the main body withered away instantly.

Next,

Lin Jing once again activated the Divine Fire Triple Realm, gathering purple flames.

However, this time, before Lin Jing could release the flames, all the vines had already retracted.

At this time,

the Wood Spirit, Lin Jing having repelled all the vines, once again resorted to old tactics, attempting to form a wooden ball and escape using that strange technique.

Seeing this, Lin Jing stepped forward, accelerating instantly and closing a great distance in a flash.

The Wood Spirit, seeing Lin Jing’s speed so fast, became flustered for a moment before hurriedly speeding up the formation of the wooden mass.

Witnessing this, Lin Jing accelerated once more and finally appeared in front of the forming wooden ball just as it was about to close.

By then, the interior of the wooden ball had already closed, while the outer layers continued to do so.

At that moment, Lin Jing reached in with his hand to grab and pull the Wood Spirit out.

However,

when Lin Jing reached inside, he grasped nothing; the wooden ball was completely empty.

Lin Jing’s brows furrowed slightly, then he withdrew his hand.

As Lin Jing’s hand was drawn out, the wooden ball withered away, and a gust of wind blew it into fine sawdust, dispersing with the wind…

The Wood Spirit had escaped again.

After the Wood Spirit fled, Lin Jing immediately began searching in the vicinity.

The Wood Spirit had a very unusual method of escape; there was no Spiritual Power fluctuation when it fled.

Even with his Divine Sense extended, Lin Jing couldn’t perceive anything.

After meticulously searching the nearby area once more, Lin Jing still could not find the Wood Spirit.

Looking at the lush greenery before him, coupled with the very rich Spiritual Energy, finding the Wood Spirit seemed harder than reaching the heavens.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Jing decided to first enter the System Space, to lie in wait for the rabbit and see if he could catch it.

The Wood Spirit seemed to be sentient, likely even monitoring him, which was why it chose to attack just as he was about to leave.

If so, then Lin Jing would set an ambush, to see if it would fall for it.

Having made up his mind, Lin Jing quietly summoned the System in his mind and then silently chanted,

“Enter System Space.”

Then,

Lin Jing took a step from the treetop, and the next moment, he disappeared from the spot.

…

Upon entering the System Space, Lin Jing did not delay, immediately activating Observation Mode.
