Chapter 718: Taking the Pearl
"They actually have this thing, are they trying to use it to absorb the Mysterious Ice Pearl?"
Seeing the red spider that almost occupied half of the stone platform like a small mountain, Ye Chunyang was secretly surprised.
This Flame Blood Demon Spider is a second-level upper-level, and its cultivation is comparable to that of a late-stage mana cultivator. Ye Chunyang had seen relevant records in Li Mochen's Spirit Beast Records. The spider silk of this beast has great lethality and extremely amazing adhesion. Once entangled, it is difficult to escape.
But this beast is extremely difficult to subdue, and it lives on absorbing fresh blood. Ordinary people rarely raise such a ferocious spiritual pet. As for how this Xu Ganling cultivated this beast to such a level, the method used can be imagined.
"Flame Blood Demon Spider, I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Xu actually has such a spiritual pet!"
After Xu Ganling summoned the Flame Blood Demon Spider, Lu Fu's pupils also shrank slightly, revealing a bit of surprise.
"Yes, the silk of this Flame Blood Demon Spider has a very strong adsorption force. The Mysterious Ice Pearl is hidden deep underground. It cannot be taken out by ordinary means. It can only be done by using the innate magical power of this beast." Xu Ganling said.
A hint of fear flashed in Lu Fu's eyes. He had heard of the method of raising the Flame Blood Demon Spider. The Wuji Demon Sect even had such a fierce creature. I am afraid there are many methods that he cannot imagine.
"There is no time to lose. Fellow Daoist Lu, please step back a little. After I take out the Mysterious Ice Pearl, we will leave here together!"
Xu Ganling seemed to be unaware of Lu Fu's strangeness. After a faint smile, he pinched his hands and silently chanted a spell. A ray of spiritual light hit the back of the Flame Blood Demon Spider. The fierce creature was shocked and crawled forward quickly with dense tentacles.
This demon spider seemed to move very slowly, but in fact it was extremely fast. It reached the outside of the concave hole of the stone platform with just one move.
Ye Chunyang hid in the dark, staring at this scene, and his thoughts turned rapidly.
"Boy, with the magical power of the Flame Blood Demon Spider, the Mysterious Ice Pearl might really be taken by them. This pearl is the source of the mysterious cold energy. Once they take it away, I'm afraid you will lose the opportunity to form a pill." Guanglingzi reminded in his heart.
Ye Chunyang's heart sank slightly, and said: "Yes, I have been preparing for this for a long time. Success is just around the corner. No matter what the purpose is, the Mysterious Ice Pearl must not fall into the hands of the Wuji Demon Sect."
He thought secretly, and suddenly thought of something, and sneered: "But the Mysterious Ice Pearl is not something that ordinary people can get. Since they have the Flame Blood Demon Spider, they can help us a lot."
"You mean..." Guanglingzi seemed to have guessed something after hearing this.
Ye Chunyang sneered and said nothing. He stared at Xu Ganling and Lu Fu for a long while before saying, "The time has not come yet. We don't have to rush. We will act according to the situation after they use the Flame Blood Demon Spider to take out the Black Ice Pearl."
After a pause, he smiled and said, "I'm afraid we will still need to rely on you at that time."
Guanglingzi was stunned and understood what Ye Chunyang meant. He immediately said, "That's good. Although the black cold air in this ice cave is not bad, it will be much purer if it can be taken from the Black Ice Pearl. Since I promised to help you with this matter, I will naturally do it. You can rest assured."
Ye Chunyang nodded and said no more. He continued to hide in the dark and watch the development of the situation.
While he was making a plan, the Flame Blood Demon Spider in front of him suddenly opened its mouth and spit out dark red silk, which quickly formed a huge web and rushed to the stone platform. There was a strange "creaking" sound. The spider silk seemed to touch something, and the whole ice cave shook slightly with a shake.
Xu Ganling looked excited and raised his hand to cast another spell.
"Puff".
The spider silk spit out by the Flame Blood Demon Spider increased several times, the trembling sound in the stone platform became more intense, the ice layer on the ground began to crack, and countless debris burst out, and the extremely cold air became even more bone-chilling.
But just when Xu Ganling was controlling the demon spider to exert force, there was a sudden loud bang, as if something heavy was released and hit the ground fiercely, and the surrounding area of the ice cave collapsed by half under this shock.
And after this shock, the spider silk spit out by the Flame Blood Demon Spider was covered with a layer of frost, and in a blink of an eye it was frozen in place.
"It seems that the cold air of the Xuanbing Pearl is really huge, even the spider silk of the Flame Blood Demon Spider can be frozen." Xu Ganling frowned deeply, and seeing the speed of the frost spreading, he hurriedly recalled the Flame Blood Demon Spider.
This fierce creature was his reliance on obtaining the Xuanbing Pearl, and there must be no mistakes.
In the dark, Ye Chunyang's pupils shrank slightly, but he did not act rashly.
Judging from the current situation, the Mysterious Ice Pearl is far more powerful than he imagined. If he acts rashly before the time is right, it will only affect all plans.
Just as he was waiting to watch the situation, Lu Fu in front of him took a few steps back and urged the True Art to stabilize his body. He said solemnly: "Lu has heard from the two elders that the Mysterious Ice Pearl is made of the coldest cold air in the world. The Arctic Ice Pool also exists because of this. If you want to take it out, I am afraid that it will not be successful with the Flame Blood Demon Spider alone."
Xu Ganling's face was gloomy.
He looked up, as if sensing something, and did not speak for a long time.
"The ten major sects on the border have already agreed that no matter how they fight internally, if there is an external enemy attack, they will join forces to attack. Although your sect has sent many masters to attract the attention of the two old immortals Hua Yun and Hongji this time, if they send a message to other sects, someone from the other side will come, and the situation will be difficult to control. Fellow Daoist Xu should find a way as soon as possible."
Seeing that he did not say a word, Lu Fu could not help but say anxiously.
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Lu. It's true that the ten major sects on the border have an agreement, but since our Wuji Demon Sect has decided to take action, we have made full preparations. It's not easy for Huayun and Hongji to ask for reinforcements." Xu Ganling sneered.
He then looked forward again, lowered his voice a few points, and said, "This Xuanbingzhu is indeed not simple. It seems that I underestimated it, but today this thing will fall into my hands anyway."
Xu Ganling's face flashed a strange smile, and he raised his hand and clapped his hands while speaking. A dark red medicine bottle in the Qiankun bag flew towards the Flame Blood Demon Spider.
As if it had suddenly discovered something it longed for, the Flame Blood Demon Spider trembled all over when it saw the medicine bottle, and a look of surprise appeared in its eyes. Then it touched it and lifted it up, and the medicine bottle broke and emitted a pungent bloody smell.
It turned out to be a blood-red pill.
The Flame Blood Demon Spider was extremely excited about this. After swallowing it in one gulp, its whole body was actually glowing with an astonishing red light, as dazzling as blood, and its breath seemed to have increased several levels in an instant.
"Blood Spirit Pill! The people of the demonic sect are indeed sinister and vicious. They can even refine such an evil pill."
Ye Chunyang's expression was slightly condensed.
Blood Spirit Pill is a kind of evil pill specially used to feed bloodthirsty monsters. It is refined with the blood essence of cultivators, and the quantity is so large that it requires the blood essence of at least dozens of people to refine one pill. Judging from the breath emitted by the Flame Blood Demon Spider at this time, I am afraid that it has taken more than one Blood Spirit Pill.
Seeing the blood energy of the Flame Blood Demon Spider surge, the Xu Gan Ling sneered and struck with another spell.
As if stimulated by the Blood Spirit Pill, the Flame Blood Demon Spider's demonic power surged. As soon as it was driven by the Xu Gan Ling, it immediately swung its huge body and pounced forward again. The spider silk in its mouth spewed out densely, several times more than before. In the blink of an eye, it covered the entire stone platform, and even the ice could be penetrated.
Lv Fu, who was standing aside, saw this scene, took a deep breath, and a dark light flashed in his eyes. I don't know what he was thinking.
Almost at the same time, a white light burst out from the ground. The dazzling brilliance made it hard for people to open their eyes. Even Xu Ganling and Lu Fu could not help but step back a few steps.
But Xu Ganling was not surprised but happy, because in the white rainbow, there was a round bead that was slowly dragged up from the ground by the Flame Blood Demon Spider with spider silk. That extreme coldness, what else could it be but the Mysterious Ice Bead?
"Hahaha... Mysterious Ice Bead! Finally got it!"
Xu Ganling laughed loudly.
However, he did not get carried away. He knew very well how terrible the mysterious cold energy contained in the Mysterious Ice Bead was. He did not dare to rush forward to take it, but carefully drove the Flame Blood Demon Spider to roll the bead with spider silk.
"This is the Mysterious Ice Bead! I have been in Feixianmen for hundreds of years, but this is the first time I have seen it. How many cultivators in the late stage of mana can resist the temptation of such pure mysterious cold energy?" Lu Fu's eyes flashed with complexity.
"You are wrong, Fellow Daoist Lu. Although the Xuanhan Qi can help late-stage cultivators like us break through bottlenecks, have you ever thought about the lethality of this Qi? Even if it can play a role in neutralizing the Dan fire when forming the Dan, its actual effect is only 30%. If it were Xu, I would not want to take this risk even if I had to find another way." Xu Ganling chuckled.
Lu Fu frowned and did not answer anything. After a moment, he said, "Since Fellow Daoist Xu has obtained the Xuanbing Pearl, you should try to leave next, right? Otherwise, no matter who of the two old immortals catches up later, it will be more than you and I can defeat."
Xu Ganling's mind moved when he heard this, and he nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu is right. Time is tight now, so it's better for Xu Su to leave."
He smiled slightly, and when the Flame Blood Demon Spider wrapped the Xuanbing Pearl, he stretched out his hand and summoned it, causing the pearl to fly slowly.
Lu Fu did not notice that when Xu Ganling did this, there seemed to be a flash of strange color in his eyes.
Ye Chunyang, who was hiding in the dark, stared at the black ice bead wrapped in spider silk, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. The black ice bead had been taken out, so when would he take action?
"Senior, I'll leave it to you to absorb the black cold energy!" Ye Chunyang sent a voice transmission to Guanglingzi.
"Don't worry, I can get as much black cold energy as you want." Guanglingzi replied indifferently.
Ye Chunyang nodded and urged the true art of the technique.
With his cultivation, it was not difficult to take the black ice bead from the two of them, but he still needed Guanglingzi to collect and take away the black cold energy.
But at this moment, the situation suddenly changed. Just when Ye Chunyang was about to take action, a thunderous shout suddenly came from outside the cave, followed by a flash of light, and a figure flew over like lightning and quickly appeared on the stone platform.
"You evil villain, you dare to sneak into my sect to steal the black ice bead, you are looking for death!"
The person who came was the elder Hongji with a pair of black eyes.
