Meanwhile, nearly seven or eight fireballs were already hurtling down viciously towards the purple-black demon vines below.

Hidden underground, Hua Zhi's hands flickered with a green light, swiftly transmitting it outward.

The many purple-black demon vines, wrapped in a yellow light screen, suddenly split down the middle, sliding rapidly to the sides, revealing the yellow light screen and Elder Yu of Changchun Temple, just in time to face the descending fireballs.

Elder Yu, taken aback, hurriedly manipulated the hand signs to change the direction of the falling fireballs, but it was too late. Four or five of them struck the yellow light screen solidly, while the rest landed on the purple-black vines.
