Nanli was taken aback, but she took advantage of the opportunity that Ye Siheng had fought for and set up the formation.
As the formation activated, golden light burst forth, severing most of the vines, leaving them powerless to struggle.
Before their eyes stood a massive tree.
Its trunk was thick and sturdy, too large for several people to embrace.
Not only that, but the tree was towering, almost blocking out the sun.
It was covered in vines, and beneath it lay the bodies of young women, drained of their vitality and souls by the tree spirit to strengthen itself.
The tree spirit did not expect these two to be formidable opponents, to have pushed it to this extent.
It let out a furious howl, causing the entire mountain to tremble.
Ye Siheng remained composed, showing no signs of panic, and asked, "Just as humans have weak points, wouldn't evil spirits have theirs too? How do we kill it?"
Nanli replied, "By piercing its demonic core, it will naturally perish."
