Chapter 90: The Battle Ends

Fortunately, as a plant, the vine does not completely die due to its own fractures.

Otherwise, Fang Yun would not be feeling just a simple sadness.

Then, Fang Yun's heart stirred, and he took over the command of the vine.

He urged the roots to suddenly spread apart, and then, driven by the unbroken parts of the roots, it instantly approached the giant octopus's massive head.

The spread-out roots completely covered the octopus's head, blocking its line of sight.

Realizing its vision was affected, the octopus curled its tentacles, ready to wrap up the vine.

Seeing this, Fang Yun's heart stirred, and the vine's branches fiercely pierced towards the giant octopus's wounds.

Severely wounded, the giant octopus's tentacles instantly sped up, wrapping around the vine's roots and pulling frantically.

As it tore the roots to shreds, it also yanked the vine's branches out from the wounds.

A large amount of blue blood gushed out from the wounds caused by the vine's branches.

Fang Yun did not care about the vine being severely wounded again.

In any case, with his vital energy, as long as the vine was not completely dead, it could ultimately be revived.

Taking advantage of the giant octopus's attention being focused on the vine.

Fang Yun's heart stirred, and he conveyed his thoughts to the spiritual insect circling above the giant octopus's head.

The spiritual insect instantly transformed into a streak of blue-gold light and seized the opportunity to drill straight into the giant octopus's head.

Then it emerged from the other side.

Compared to the previous two wounds, this time, the spiritual insect's damage to the giant octopus was truly fatal.

Severely injured, the giant octopus violently threw the vine, which it had wrapped in its tentacles, away.

Then it wildly waved its tentacles in place, continuously slapping the ground.

To release the pain within its body.

Seeing this, Fang Yun felt no pity and continued to urge the vine, which had been thrown far away, to fly back again.

Taking advantage of the giant octopus's tentacles' movements, he quickly approached its massive head.

He intended to use the vine's branches to drill into the wounds caused by the spiritual insect once again.

However, even though the giant octopus was severely injured, it still noticed the vine's approach and its attack intentions.

Thus, one of the giant octopus's tentacles covered the new wound while several other tentacles desperately struck at the vine.

At the same time, it had to divide some of its attention to the spiritual insect continuously circling above its head.

For a moment, the giant octopus's already not-so-smart brain became even more chaotic.

Seeing that the giant octopus was on guard, Fang Yun was not particularly anxious.

He urged the vine to dodge the giant octopus's tentacles and kept swimming around it to attract its attention.

After all, the advantage was on Fang Yun's side, so he could slowly exhaust the giant octopus to death.

On the contrary, the giant octopus, due to the injuries it suffered earlier, continued to bleed blue blood from its body.

Thus, as time passed, the giant octopus would ultimately be unable to hold on.

Sure enough, not long after, the giant octopus's movements began to slow down.

It merely followed the vine's movements, constantly shifting its body and turning in circles.

It no longer displayed the frequent flailing of its tentacles as before.

Seeing this situation, Fang Yun's eyes narrowed slightly.

He speculated that this might be the giant octopus's way of luring the enemy to take the bait.

After all, wild animals often have the habit of biting back at their enemies before dying.

Not to mention a monster like the giant octopus?

With this in mind, Fang Yun actually should continue to delay time.

Wait for the giant octopus's injuries to worsen, and then attack; that would be his best choice.

However, at that moment, Fang Yun suddenly noticed a ship appearing vaguely in the distant sea.

This discovery made his expression change.

This suddenly appearing ship was likely due to the commotion on the sea earlier.

If so, continuing to entangle with this giant octopus would not be so favorable for him.

So, Fang Yun's heart stirred, and the vine, under his command, once again pounced at the giant octopus.

Seeing this, the eight tentacles of the giant octopus instantly moved, wrapping the incoming vine within them.

Then, with a violent tug, it tore the remaining part of the vine into shreds.

However, Fang Yun had already anticipated this.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the spiritual insect circling above the octopus's head transformed into a streak of blue-gold light and directly penetrated from the back of its head to the front.

Having suffered two successive heavy blows in the center of its brain, along with the previous injuries, the giant octopus was utterly severely wounded.

It could no longer move, allowing the blood from its head to continuously flow onto the ground.

Seeing that the giant octopus could no longer resist, Fang Yun shifted his attention to the distant ship.

He remained vigilant for any potential enemies that might appear.

Meanwhile, Fang Yun drove the segment of the vine closest to the roots.

He made it carry a part of his roots and drill into the soil.

Then it arrived under Fang Yun's feet.

While Fang Yun was paying attention to the distant ship, a large amount of vital energy began to infuse into the vine from within his body.

As a result of the infusion of vital energy, the vine underground started to grow wildly.

Before long, the vine returned to its previous peak state.

However, at this time, Fang Yun did not let the vine appear on the surface to avoid exposing his secret to any potential enemies in the distance.

Under Fang Yun's watch, the distant ship did not take this opportunity to approach but gradually moved away from the island.

It slowly disappeared from sight.

Seeing this, Fang Yun let out a slow sigh of relief.

It seemed that the worst situation had not occurred; the people on that ship did not take the opportunity to approach the island.

Otherwise, Fang Yun might have to face another battle.

In the face of uncertain enemy strength, Fang Yun actually did not want to engage in combat easily.

Unless it was absolutely necessary.

Seeing that the ship had completely vanished, Fang Yun then focused his attention on the giant octopus in front of him.

At this moment, the giant octopus was completely still, clearly unaware that it had lost its life at some point.

To prevent any mishap, Fang Yun drove the vine, which had returned to its peak condition, to drill out of the soil and approach the giant octopus.

He wrapped it around one of its tentacles and continuously tugged back and forth.

Noticing that the giant octopus remained unresponsive, Fang Yun felt reassured.
