Chapter 1470 - Great Dao of Woods Fragment
The Vine Demon suddenly dropped to her knees and begged for mercy. This time, she changed into the form of a little girl, her half-formed limbs looking like twisted tree vines.
Earlier, she had taken on the guise of an old witch to appear more intimidating and better suited for combat. Now, she looked pure and youthful as she kowtowed on the ground, but despite that innocent appearance, she had already been living for ten thousand years.
While ten thousand years sounded unimaginably long to humans, Vine Demons spent the first seven to eight thousand years of their lives absorbing the energy of heaven and earth, unable to assume a human form.
This meant that this particular Vine Demon had only awakened and taken shape for a little over a thousand years.
The Heretic Blade had already pierced down to her roots, and if it sank any deeper, she would lose all her supply of energy. Once that happened, she would slowly wither and die.
Only Vine Demons who had advanced to the level of a great demon could tear free from their root system and roam freely.
In truth, this Vine Demon's combat power was not impressive; she relied entirely on illusions and seduction to ambush passing cultivators.
At best, her strength was merely comparable to that of experts at the fifth level of the Earth Immortal Realm.
"Give me a reason why I shouldn't kill you," Liu Wuxie said. He could end her life at any moment, and if the Vine Demon wanted to live, she first had to prove her worth.
"I can tell you a secret! There are many treasures over there," the Vine Demon said. She had merged herself with the environment, and with other Vine Demons scattered across this parallel world, they could communicate with one another.
"Let's hear what you have to say," Liu Wuxie replied, but he did not retract the Heretic Blade.
If her information proved helpful, he'd consider sparing her life. At worst, he would cripple several thousand years of her cultivation and force her to start cultivating again from scratch.
