"Xiang Xingyu!" Yang Chen squinted his eyes and said to Xiang Xingyu, "Do you think experience is everything?" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Yang Chen once thought the same way; after being on so many battlefields and engaging in countless fights, he believed experience was everything and that everything should follow a pattern.

Actually, no. The reason you think this way is because your experience is not sufficient, and your understanding is not broad enough!

In this world, there's no such thing as absolutes!

"Otherwise, where?" Xiang Xingyu angrily replied, "Do you know the age of this tomb? Do you know its structure? Do you know what the burial goods represent?"

Yang Chen sneered, "Then do you know why there are so many people hanging on the vines?"

Xiang Xingyu was momentarily speechless.

"Remember!" Yang Chen said coldly, "I brought you all here, and now you work for me! Otherwise, I can completely cast you out! From now on, either follow my orders or get out!"

Yang Chen showed no mercy.

Several members of the Xiang family were indignant, even ready to use their weapons.

The moment there was movement, Night Fire and his team raised their guns, aiming at the Xiang family members.

Night Fire and his team had real combat experience, having been through the trials of blood and fire, exuding a killing aura and a formidable presence that the Xiang family couldn't match.

In an instant, it suppressed the momentum of the Xiang family.

Xiang Jixian said coldly, "Stop! Since they want to go down, let them go!"

Xiang Xingyu also snorted coldly, "If you want to die, no one is stopping you!"

"Purple Cultivator, Yang Cao! Go down!" Yang Chen glared at them and ordered Yang Cao and Purple Cultivator.

"Yes!"

The two immediately grabbed the rope and leaped down.

Their speed was quick, and their actions were agile, immediately showcasing a difference from the Xiang family members.

After all, expertise matters, and in this field, Purple Cultivator and Yang Cao were professionals.

The guard below saw Yang Cao and Purple Cultivator, letting out a beast-like roar and pounced towards them.

Seeing this, Yang Cao threw something at the guard, emitting a cloud of smoke.

The guard suddenly became much quieter and stopped.

The two quickly went down, pulling out a rope to bind the guard securely, then signaled Yang Chen and the others to pull him up.

The Xiang family was dumbfounded, not expecting a monster that had killed several of their people to be subdued by Yang Chen's team, leaving them feeling humiliated.

Someone angrily said, "You had the ability, but didn't act! You killed my brother!"

Yang Chen ignored this.

Below, Yang Cao recorded everything with a camera while bending down to inspect the vine.

Of course, when he took out a knife to cut a section for examination, he witnessed a bizarre scene.

The vine moved!

It was as if the vine had eyes and awareness, avoiding the dagger's harm!

Moreover, vines were entwining Yang Cao's feet, attempting to attack him.

Yang Cao's eyes flashed coldly, and he swiftly cut off a piece of the vine, sealing it in a bag!

Shattering noises!

The vine trembled as if in pain, wobbling wildly, with several vines wrapping towards Yang Cao.

"Quickly, let's go!" Yang Cao shouted, jumping up the wall to grab the rope.

Purple Cultivator was also swift, both quickly climbing up the rope.

People above quickly pulled and tugged the rope, exerting force from both sides, pulling them ashore as fast as possible.

The vines continued to stretch upwards until stopping just over a meter from the cliff edge, slowly retracting.

Everyone watching this scene widened their eyes in shock.

"Snake vines! It's actually snake vines!" someone from the Xiang family exclaimed.

Xiang Xingyu's face changed drastically, saying in a deep voice, "How is this possible? How are there so many snake vines?"

"Snake vines?" Yang Chen frowned, looking at the panting Yang Cao.

Inside Yang Cao's sealed bag, a vine piece was still squirming, with something resembling blood oozing out from its wound!

Meanwhile, the guard began to struggle again.

Seeing this, Yang Cao rudely stuffed a pill into his mouth.

"This dose can take down ten elephants; I don't believe it can't subdue you!" Yang Cao remarked coldly.

Instantly, the guard calmed down again.

When pulled up, they saw this wasn't quite a person anymore; it was like a treeman, with bark-like things growing on his face, and even small roots were sprouting, his eyes a ghastly white, without visible pupils.

His hands and feet were covered with keratinous stuff, only with protruding teeth, resembling a mythical zombie!

"What exactly is this creature?" someone asked in fear.

Yang Cao was very professional, wearing rubber gloves and safety goggles, he used a scalpel to cut open a spot on the guard's hand.

Indeed, it was as hard to cut as bark, and when opened, a red liquid flowed out, resembling blood but not quite, emitting a foul stench.

Yang Cao stared at the wound, his face slightly changing.

"Boss! Come quickly!" Yang Cao called out in a deep voice.

Yang Chen squatted down, and Yang Cao sliced the wound open further for Yang Chen to observe.

That flesh-like but not flesh-like thing twisted and tangled like living organisms, horrifyingly resembling wriggling worms!

The key point is the wound healed rapidly.

The speed of regeneration and healing was truly terrifying!

"What is this?" Yang Chen asked, watching the flesh-like substance from which worm-like things emerged, fusing with the wound and healing it entirely.

"Not clear yet!" Yang Cao frowned, "Without equipment, I can only make a rough guess... But... Drawing conclusions requires a little experiment!"

Yang Cao turned to the piece of vine cut beforehand.

Immediately, Yang Cao took the vine, opened the sealed bag, clamped the vine with tweezers, and placed it on the guard's wound.

Instantly, small red worm-like things emerged from the vine and burrowed into the guard's wound!

Witnessing this, Yang Chen couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air, standing up to signal everyone to step back!

It's parasitism!

The vine contains parasite-like things that, once inside the human body, completely alter its structure!

That's why the guard turned into his current state!

It's horrifying!

Yang Cao's face also changed slightly.

Yet he specialized in toxic plants and insects, remaining relatively calm in this situation, using tweezers to hold a red little worm.

But the red little worm dissolved immediately, splitting in two, becoming two!

This seems to be more than a simple parasite!
