Chapter 1510 Kill the spider and get the grass!
After such a careful scan, he indeed discovered something amiss.
In the deepest part of the valley, behind a rock wall covered with vines and moss, his divine sense detected an extremely faint fluctuation of breath.
This feeling was very subtle. If he hadn't deliberately looked for it and his spiritual power was not strong enough, he would have had no way of discovering it.
"Could it be hidden here?"
Ye Chuyun's figure flashed and appeared silently in front of the rock wall.
He stretched out his fingers and gently touched the moss on the rock wall, feeling a cool and smooth touch on his fingertips.
But at the same time, he felt a breeze blowing out from the cracks in the rock wall.
There seems to be a hidden cave inside.
"Interesting." Ye Chuyun curled the corners of his mouth.
He put his fingers together like a knife and cut through the vines directly. A narrow hole that was only wide enough for one person to pass through soon appeared.
A cold aura emanated from it.
Ye Chuyun flashed in.
There is a different world inside the cave, and the space is much larger than it appears from the outside.
The light was dim, but enough to see.
Countless spider silk threads gleaming with faint white light hung down from the cave walls, casting a hazy shadow over the entire cave.
Ye Chuyun used his spiritual sense to investigate again, but found that after touching the spider silk, his spiritual sense was like sinking into the sea and had no reaction.
It seems that this is the reason why he didn't explore this cave before.
It is because of these spider silks that they have the ability to block detection.
In the very center of the cave, a spider as big as a baby elephant was crawling quietly.
The spider's entire body is like flawless white jade, and it has eight compound eyes, four open and four closed.
This gave Ye Chuyun the feeling that the spider was sleeping with its eyes open.
The spider's eight long legs look like they are carved from white jade and are extremely sharp.
The energy fluctuations emitted surprisingly reached the early fifth level.
It seems that this white jade spider is the "big guy" mentioned by Dufang and Shidun.
Under the white jade spider's huge abdomen, there is a thick layer of white silk that looks extremely soft.
Five spider eggs the size of watermelons lay quietly on the white silk. The shadows of the little spiders curled up inside could be vaguely seen. They were full of life and seemed like they could break out of the shells at any time.
However, what attracted Ye Chuyun's attention the most was a strange plant not far from the white jade spider.
It grows in the cracks of rocks, is about one foot tall, and has nine crystal clear blood-red leaves, and it looks like blood is flowing in the veins of the leaves.
There is a longan-sized fruit on the top, which has turned purple and looks like it is almost ripe.
The whole plant exudes amazing energy and rich fragrance, and its grade has reached the fifth level.
I heard from Shidun that this companion spiritual herb is called Blood Crystal Grass, which can increase a lot of Qi and blood power after taking it.
The fruit at the top is the essence, let's call it blood crystal fruit.
At this moment, the color of the blood crystal fruit is changing from deep red to purple-red, and the aroma is becoming more and more intense, but it is obviously still a little short of being fully ripe.
The four open compound eyes of the white jade spider were staring at the blood crystal fruit without blinking, full of desire.
It was obviously waiting for the moment when the fruit was fully ripe so that it could swallow it and become even stronger.
"A fifth-level demon beast, a fifth-level spiritual fruit...what an unexpected gain." A look of joy flashed in Ye Chuyun's eyes.
"The Qi and blood power contained in this Blood Crystal Fruit is extremely pure and powerful. If Black Claw or Giant Mountain consume it, they will definitely be able to reach the fourth level, and may even be able to go further."
As for those spider eggs, if they can be hatched and tamed, they will be a great help.
"Three days, it will take three days for it to mature naturally." Ye Chuyun shook his head slightly, "I can't wait that long."
At this moment, his A-level time talent came in handy.
Although large-scale reversal or acceleration of time is not very feasible, it is not a big burden for him to simply accelerate time in a small area on a spiritual herb.
The first goal is to get rid of this white jade spider.
Ye Chuyun no longer hid his breath, took a step forward, and his figure appeared in the cave.
"hiss!"
The white jade spider became alert instantly, and its four tightly closed compound eyes opened together, locking onto the enemy.
Feeling the unfathomable aura from the other party, it let out a sharp hiss, revealing its ferocious mouthparts, and waved its forelimbs like two white jade sickles.
It meant to warn Ye Chuyun to get away.
Animal instinct made it sense great danger.
"Be quiet." Ye Chuyun said lightly, and pointed his finger like a sword at the white jade spider from a distance.
The sword energy ignored the distance in space and instantly penetrated the head of the white jade spider.
All the movements of the white jade spider froze in an instant, its waving forelimbs stopped in mid-air, and the murderous light in its compound eyes quickly dimmed and finally went out completely.
Its huge body shook slightly, then collapsed silently, and its life force dissipated in an instant.
Instant kill!
Ye Chuyun's attack directly annihilated its soul, without even damaging its white jade shell, poison sac and other parts.
He waved his hand and put the huge corpse of the white jade spider into the temporary space. This material might be able to be made into good armor or weapons in the future.
Then he carefully collected the five warm spider eggs.
Finally, he walked to the blood crystal grass.
Rich energy and fragrance filled his face. Ye Chuyun stretched out his finger and gently touched the blood crystal fruit that was about to mature.
"Speed up."
He muttered to himself and activated his A-level time talent.
The invisible force of time enveloped a tiny area around the blood crystal grass.
From the outside, nothing seems unusual, but in that area, time is passing by madly at a hundred or a thousand times the speed.
The blood crystal grass swayed slightly at a speed visible to the naked eye, the blood-colored light on the leaves flowed faster, and the color of the blood crystal fruit on the top quickly deepened, from deep red to purple-red, and finally turned into a deep purple-red that was almost black.
The luster on the surface became deeper, as if it contained energy like a sea of blood.
The rich aroma also reached its peak, and then suddenly converged, completely blending into the fruit.
After just this moment of acceleration, Ye Chuyun felt that his mental strength had been consumed by nearly 50%.
Local time acceleration, especially the acceleration of high-level spiritual objects, does consume a lot of energy.
But the results are encouraging.
The blood crystal fruit, which originally took three days to mature, has now matured perfectly, and its energy and blood have reached its peak.
Ye Chuyun carefully picked the fruits and placed them in a container prepared in advance.
The container was temporarily forged from existing materials.
After all, in addition to being an alchemist, he is also a blacksmith.
There was no way, his storage space was sealed, and he couldn't even take out the jade box containing the herbs.
Seal it and store it in a temporary space.
