Chapter 814: Disaster Strikes
Yun Youzi said in a deep voice:
"That man claims to be paving the way for his [master]. It seems there is a greater threat behind the scenes."
Li Yang frowned:
"Master? Is he some powerful monk?"
"It's possible." Yunyouzi nodded, "But what worries me more is the Shukuchi Pearl that the man used before leaving."
"Shutchi Pearl?"
Zhang Hui looked confused.
Yunyouzi explained:
"That is an extremely rare magic weapon that can open space cracks in a short period of time."
"I have seen records in ancient books, but I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes today."
"So, they have indeed mastered the ability to travel through space."
Li Yang was thoughtful.
"good."
Yunyouzi nodded,
"And according to what the man said, they plan to come again, and we must be prepared."
At this moment, Zhou Mu came over with a group of guards.
"Thank you to the help of three experts for saving our state from disaster."
Zhou Mu bowed and saluted.
"Can you tell me the specific situation?"
Yun Youzi briefly told Zhou Mu what happened.
After Zhou Mu heard this, his face became solemn:
"So the crisis is far from over?"
"I'm afraid so." Yun Youzi nodded.
"You need to be prepared for the long haul."
Zhou Mu pondered for a moment and said:
"In this case, I will write to the court and request more troops to be stationed..."
"The contributions of these three people cannot be repaid by me as a small state pastor."
"I just hope that the three of you can stay a little longer and allow me to take the time to thank you all!"
"At the same time, I hope the three immortals can stay and help..."
Yun Youzi glanced at Li Yang and Zhang Hui, and when they nodded, he agreed:
"Of course, until this matter is completely resolved, we will do our best to help."
Zhou Mu was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly held his hands in his hands to express his thanks.
In the days that followed, the three began to assist Zhou Mu in strengthening the city's defense, while also secretly investigating the origins of the monsters and the men in black robes.
...
In this way, a few days passed.
During this time, nothing happened.
Li Yang and the other two gradually became familiar with life here.
The three of them accepted the hospitality of the state pastor here, while using this as the center, looking for a way to leave this space...or time.
One day, Li Yang was collecting herbs in the woods outside the city when he suddenly heard a strange sound.
He followed the sound vigilantly and saw a huge spider spinning silk and building a web.
The spider was completely black, with strange red patterns on its back, and its eight eyes were shining with green light.
"This is..."
Li Yang frowned slightly and immediately recognized the origin of this spider.
This was clearly something he had read about in the Taiqing Temple, a monster in the form of an extremely spider—
Bloodweb Spider.
Under normal circumstances, blood web spiders will only appear in extremely remote mountains and old forests.
Not only are they huge, they are also extremely poisonous and can even corrode metal.
This is a monster born out of chaos.
It is impossible to appear at this point in time that has not been eroded by chaos.
But now, this kind of creature appears here...
Just like the two-headed dog before, it was very strange.
Li Yang retreated quietly, preparing to go back to report the news.
But at this moment, the blood web spider suddenly turned its head and stared at him with its eight eyes.
"Tsk..."
Li Yang was shocked, knowing that he had been exposed.
The blood web spider jumped suddenly and rushed towards him!
Li Yang reacted quickly, waved his hands, and countless vines instantly grew on the ground, trying to wrap around the spider.
But what surprised him was that as soon as those vines came into contact with the spiders, they withered and withered immediately!
"This toxicity... seems to be more terrifying than I thought..."
Li Yang's expression changed drastically.
Seeing the Blood Web Spider getting closer and closer, Li Yang had to give up his plan of close combat and turned around and ran away.
As he ran, he scattered various seeds on the ground, hoping to block the spider's pursuit.
But the speed of the Blood Web Spider was so fast that it caught up with it in the blink of an eye.
But the next moment, a golden light suddenly fell from the sky, blocking him and the Blood Web Spider.
"senior?"
Li Yang recognized the person who came, it was Yun Youzi.
He didn't know when he arrived, and now he was standing in front of Li Yang, confronting the blood web spider.
"Back off."
Yun Youzi said in a deep voice.
Li Yang did as he was told.
I saw Yun Youzi making seals with his hands, and a golden light shot out from his palms, hitting the Blood Web Spider directly.
The blood web spider seemed to feel the threat and immediately sprayed out a black poisonous mist.
The golden light and poisonous mist collided in the air, making a "chichi" sound.
Yun Youzi frowned slightly, obviously not expecting this spider to be so poisonous.
At this moment, the Blood Web Spider suddenly jumped up and stabbed at Yun Youzi with its eight legs at the same time!
Yun Youzi took his time and waved his right hand, and a golden barrier instantly appeared in front of him.
"clang!"
The bloodweb spider's claws hit the barrier, making a metallic sound.
Taking this opportunity, Yun Youzi pointed his left hand, and a golden light shot out like lightning, hitting the abdomen of the blood web spider.
"hiss--"
The Blood Web Spider let out a shrill scream, and its body exploded instantly, turning into a black mist and disappearing without a trace.
"Senior, how do you feel?"
Li Yang quickly stepped forward to ask.
Yunyouzi shook his head:
"It doesn't matter. You're not hurt, are you?"
Li Yang slightly arched his hands:
"Thanks to my senior's timely arrival, I survived."
Yun Youzi nodded and then asked:
"What kind of monster is this? Why is it so difficult to deal with?"
Li Yang briefly explained the origin of the Blood Web Spider. After hearing this, Yun Youzi's face became more solemn.
"It appears the situation is worse than we imagined."
Yun Youzi said solemnly, "If this kind of creature reproduces in large numbers, the consequences will be disastrous."
Li Yang nodded in agreement: "That's true..."
"Let's go back to the city first." Yun Youzi said,
"Be careful on the road and don't go alone again."
Li Yang nodded in agreement, and the two returned to the city together.
After returning to Zhoucheng, Yunyouzi immediately summoned Zhang Hui and explained to him what had happened.
"Bloodweb spider?"
Zhang Hui exclaimed,
"Isn't that the poison we have there?"
Li Yang shook his head:
"They clearly exist in this day and age."
"And," Yun Youzi added,
"According to Li Yang, this creature is extremely toxic and can corrode even plants instantly."
"If we let them multiply in large numbers, the consequences will be disastrous."
Zhang Hui frowned and thought:
"Then what should we do? We can't go looking for them one by one, right?"
"The most urgent task is to find out their source." Yun Youzi said,
"This kind of creature cannot appear out of thin air. Someone must have brought them here."
Li Yang thought thoughtfully:
"Could it be the man in black robe from last time?"
"It's very possible." Yunyouzi nodded, "But we still need more evidence."
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside.
The three of them looked at each other and immediately rushed out of the room.
I saw people running around in panic everywhere in the city, and someone shouted loudly:
"Monster! The monster is coming!"
