Fortunately, although her injuries looked scary, they did not break any bones and were not particularly serious.
Fortunately, there was plenty of Yin energy here. After recovering a little and stopping the bleeding, Chu Yao stood up.
The situation inside the cave was unknown, so she didn't dare stay there for long.
The spiritual power remaining in his body was extremely weak. Chu Yao estimated that it was only enough for him to use the Ghost Step once, or use some simple spells.
Looking at the giant spider's corpse lying on the ground, Chu Yao showed a smug smile on his face.
You little bastard, you finally fell into my hands!
The giant sword technique is actually a very common spell in the Fengyuan cultivation world. Although it is not very agile, it is powerful and fierce. It was just right to use it in the situation just now.
She calmed herself down, thought for a moment, and then walked towards the depths of the cave.
Now that we are here, since this place can breed such monsters, maybe there are some spiritual creatures here.
If you encounter an emergency again, just use the Ghost Step to escape and come back later.
Chu Yao groped forward cautiously. After walking for about two or three minutes, his vision suddenly became clear.
The deepest part is actually a very large cave, as big as a small square.
At this time, every corner of the cave was covered with dense spider webs, with round white eggs attached to them, some of which were even wriggling.
This was already a dead end. Chu Yao steeled herself and used up her remaining spiritual power to cast the Fire Exorcist Technique. Balls of flame flew towards the spider webs, and soon a huge fire erupted, turning the spider webs and insect eggs into ashes.
Finally clean...
A feeling of weakness instantly surged throughout my body.
An ordinary cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining would have been killed by the spiders long ago. However, she had managed to survive until now with just this insignificant amount of magic power.
After a series of fierce battles, it is inevitable to be exhausted.
Let’s get some sleep first…
Chu Yao closed his eyes and fell heavily to the ground.
——
It was unknown how long it took before she woke up.
Chu Yao stretched and felt that she was in much better condition and her strength had recovered, but she was a little hungry.
She walked back. To make it easier to fight, she had previously dropped her phone in a corner of the main road. The monsters wouldn't be interested in it anyway.
I glanced at my phone, but there was still no signal. The time was December 8, 2510, 11 p.m.
She remembered that she received the news from Gong Xiaoran in the afternoon of the 7th, which meant that she slept for a whole day and night.
Chu Yao sighed, looked at the 5% battery left, and pressed the power off button.
Then she returned to the spiders' nest and began to look around the cave.
The entire cave is roughly circular in shape and can be seen in its entirety at a glance; the insect eggs and spider webs have turned into gray-black embers, covering the stone ground in patches.
It seems... there are no spiritual creatures.
So how do they survive? Yin energy?
It's really weird.
Chu Yao muttered to himself as he circled around in the cave, occasionally knocking on the protruding stalactites.
This place is quite strange. It looks like a natural cave, but the ground is extremely flat and does not seem to be naturally formed.
The Yin energy is extremely abundant, and retreating here will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort.
She casually touched the stone wall and suddenly froze.
My hand seemed to disappear for a moment just now?
She tentatively stretched out her hand towards the previous position, and it seemed as if it had penetrated the stone wall.
A false door? An illusion?
There is indeed something strange about this spider's nest. Perhaps this is where they are truly bred.
I just don’t know whether this mysterious mechanism was left by a monk or a technological creation?
She did not rush in rashly, but picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it gently towards the fake stone wall.
Throwing a stone to test the water, she had no spiritual sense to use at the moment and could only use this stupid method.
The thrown stone landed on the ground on the other side and rolled twice, making a crisp sound.
Seeing that there was no movement, Chu Yao calmed down and walked towards the stone wall.
Then I saw a shocking scene.
A cave that was four or five times larger than the previous one appeared before her eyes. The depth made her feel like she had come to a hollowed-out mountain. Suddenly, a majestic giant circular array appeared on the ground in front of her. The array plate shone with dazzling blue light, and more than a dozen arc-shaped inner and outer rings moved in opposite directions, engraved with complex texts and spells. The light flickered on and off, like a person exhaling, and when it was brightest, it exhaled granular light like fireflies.
The light spot contained extremely rich spiritual power. Chu Yao felt refreshed after just taking a breath.
This is a big formation!
Perhaps this is the spiritual object that the group of spiders outside rely on for survival.
She took a few steps forward and found another corpse beside her.
This corpse was different from the previous ones. He was sitting cross-legged, and his bones were jade-colored. I wonder what kind of martial arts he practiced in his lifetime.
At his feet, Chu Yao found a small cloth bag wrapped in red thread, with a yin-yang diagram embroidered on it.
Storage bag!
It’s amazing, whatever I want comes true, this place is really my paradise!
After a day and a night of rest, Chu Yao recovered a little bit of her magic power, so she used the Soul-Gathering Sword again and circled around the jade skeleton several times.
Since there was a storage bag, this person must be a cultivator. It was unknown how long this person had been dead, as there was no trace of spiritual energy emanating from him.
Chu Yao used the ghost knife to pick up the storage bag, thought for a while, and then clenched his fist and bowed.
She was thinking that this jade bone might be suitable for making a puppet...
But seeing that he seems to be defending the formation, I should do myself some good deeds.
Chu Yao held the storage bag in her hand, but did not rush to see what was inside; she looked around again, and there was nothing except the corpse and the formation.
She looked at the formation carefully again. Compared with it, Chu Yao was like a small ant.
The characters engraved on the disc belonged neither to Feng Yuan nor to Tian Ren, so she couldn't recognize them.
After a closer inspection, she actually discovered a clue. In one corner of the formation, there was a faint white crack, as if it had been broken and then repaired.
Chu Yao's knowledge of battle formations was not deep, so he couldn't see its specific use, but he could guess a little bit.
The purpose of a formation is simply to prevent people from entering or leaving.
If it's the latter...what is it sealing?
Chu Yao stood in front of the formation with a serious expression.
The blockage of Mine No. 1 must have been caused by the spiders. If so, the spiders must have existed before the mine was built.
Based on this inference, the construction of this large formation may have been earlier than the development of Lingyuan Star by Yali Company.
But exactly how many years earlier is unknown.
Lingyuan Star still has many secrets that I don’t know about.
And this monk who passed away here, when and where did he come from, why did he die here, and what was his purpose?
Chu Yao shook her head and looked at the storage bag in her hand, hoping to get some clues from it.
