"..." Wu Daosheng could only ask her to let go first, "Don't strangle me so tightly, what if you strangle me to death?"

Li Xuefei finally reacted and let go of her hand embarrassedly, but still refused to come down. She was most afraid of snakes, especially those snakes that spit out scarlet tongues and stare at her intently, as if they were going to rush up and bite her the next moment.

Wu Daosheng could only gently persuade her to come down, "Don't be afraid, I have condensed a protective light film on you, the poisonous snake can't bite you, come down quickly."

Li Xuefei refused, shaking her head like a rattle, "I don't want to, I'm scared! My legs are weak, I don't dare."

Well, it seems that Junior Sister was really frightened and her legs went limp...

Wu Daosheng could only carry her on his back as he searched for magical herbs and treasures in the miasma-filled woods.

The trees here are shady, the weeds are overgrown, and occasionally you can see some animal bones. It looks a bit eerie and scary, like walking into a ghost forest.

Stepping on the dead branches and leaves below, a creepy sound was heard.

Li Xuefei was so frightened that she lay on Wu Daosheng's back tightly, looking around, afraid that a ghost would suddenly appear and drag her away.

The two of them searched for a path to go deeper into the basin. Along the way, they found some hundred-year-old Polygonatum and Ginseng, which could be used to make Bigu Pills. They dug them up, but left some of the rhizomes to let it grow again.

Suddenly, Li Xuefei pointed at a certain place and screamed again, "Brother, there is a snake over there, a really big snake..."

Wu Daosheng looked over and saw that it was a huge white snake skin, more than a hundred meters long, covered with dense scales, hanging on a big tree.

Wu Daosheng walked over and flicked it with his fingers. He was surprised to find that the snake was very hard and tough. There were also strange patterns on the snake skin like fire clouds.

Li Xuefei's face turned pale, and she was about to back off. "Brother, I'm so scared! Why don't we go back? If we encounter this giant snake, the two of us probably won't be enough to feed it."

Wu Daosheng was not afraid, but rather excited. Wherever there were natural treasures, there would be spiritual beasts guarding them!

"Junior sister, hold on tight! Let's go to the sky and take a look!" Wu Daosheng reminded her and soared into the sky.

He looked down from the mid-air in the valley basin and found that this place seemed to be blocked by some kind of power, and he could only observe the terrain with his naked eyes.

Li Xuefei had sharp eyes and spotted a collapsed sinkhole in the basin. "Brother, look over there! There seems to be a big hole!"

Wu Daosheng also looked over and saw a rock pit! He gave her a thumbs up and said, "Junior sister, your eyes are really sharp!"

Li Xuefei smiled proudly, "Of course! I'm an expert treasure hunter!"

"Vincent! Go away."

Wu Daosheng reminded her to hold on steady and then fell down. The feeling of weightlessness made Li Xuefei scream and pull his collar tightly.

After a moment, the two of them were suspended above the rock pit.

Wu Daosheng squinted his eyes and looked down

He found dense animal remains at the bottom of the pit, and occasionally phosphorus fire rose, emitting a green luster like a ghost fire.

Li Xuefei swallowed her saliva secretly, extremely frightened. "Master, Senior Brother, are we really going down there? Will we be swallowed by the monster the moment we get down there?"

Wu Daosheng did not speak. He used the Qi-gazing technique to look inside and found that there was a bloody evil spirit permeating the air, and it was very strong.

"It's a bit dangerous in there, but I can handle it, so don't worry too much!"

Wu Daosheng stretched out his right hand, formed a sword finger, and placed it on his brow while silently chanting a spell. A wall of air appeared out of thin air, emitting a golden glow, wrapping them inside.

Then the two of them slowly descended to the bottom of the pit and walked forward along the path at the entrance. They stepped on the bones and made crisp crackling sounds, which echoed in the pit.

Suddenly, countless pairs of scarlet eyes lit up above the pit, emitting bursts of "ah-ah" hissing sounds. It turned out that the sound just now had touched the group of bats inside, and they were slowly waking up.

Suddenly, the bats, startled by the noise, screamed and rushed towards the two people with flapping wings.

Li Xuefei was so frightened by the sudden change that her hands were shaking. She buried her head tightly in her clothes and dared not look at these ferocious and disgusting bats.

Wu Daosheng looked at the swarm of bats flying in the sky without fear. He quickly formed seals with his hands and suddenly opened his mouth, emitting a silent ripple that spread throughout the cave.

The bats flying overhead hit the silent ripples and fell down like dumplings.

Half an hour later, all the bats fell to the ground without making any movement. Wu Daosheng and the others continued to move forward.

"Brother, what skill did you just use? It's amazing! Those disgusting bats fell down like dumplings." Li Xuefei looked excited, as if she was the one who made the move just now.

Wu Daosheng smiled faintly, "That's a method I developed specifically to deal with these bat swarms! I named it 'The Silent Way'!"

Wu Daosheng created this spell after many expeditions. It can kill some monsters that catch prey by sound.

After being freed from the annoying bat swarm, the two continued to move deeper into the pit.
