The golden greatsword, with unstoppable force, pierced into the "sea of blood," annihilating the Blood Jade Spiders with overwhelming force.
Like a blazing sun rising from the "sea of blood," it bursts forth with countless dazzling rays, invincible and sweeping away everything!
In an instant, countless Blood Jade Spiders perished, exploding into pieces.
Upon seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan and the others looked somewhat horrified.
The power of such a talisman is truly terrifying!
The mere aura it exuded gave off an irresistible power.
It was as if the power of a Foundation Establishment cultivator was being unleashed, with strong and surging spiritual energy fluctuations.
Before long, the golden sword slowly dimmed, and the violent spiritual energy fluctuations subsided.
The dimly lit passageway was covered with a thick layer of blood jade spider corpses, with blue blood flowing and converging into streams that slowly flowed to the ground.
Chen Xue slowly put away the talisman, her face pale and her spirit weak, clearly indicating that activating the talisman had consumed too much energy.
"Xuemei, you've worked hard. We've cleaned up the Blood Jade Spider's nest. There are probably only some larvae left inside, so it shouldn't be a problem."
Chen Shaorong said slowly.
Everyone was shocked. Exhausted from the continuous battles, they followed suit and entered the Blood Jade Spider's lair through the passage on the right.
After passing through the passage, the overall space opened up considerably. In addition to a huge cave, the space ahead branched into a series of narrow passages, with many Blood Jade Spider larvae crawling in and out.
Without any hesitation, everyone attacked and killed them one by one. After sweeping through the area, they found no Blood Jade Spider Queen that posed a threat, and only then did they feel relieved.
During their visit, they discovered quite a few insect eggs hidden in the walls of a narrow passage deep inside. However, they had no intention of culturing them and simply divided them up.
These Blood Jade Spiders are excellent spirit beasts for beast tamers, and their eggs are quite valuable.
This was another good profit; everyone received at least tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones.
After thoroughly clearing out the Blood Jade Spider's nest and eliminating all dangers...
Everyone then sat cross-legged, trying to recover their magical power and tired minds.
At this point, the group was less than a third of the way from their final destination.
I don't know how many more monster lairs we'll have to pass through next, probably at least a dozen.
As they ventured deeper, the monsters grew increasingly powerful. Fortunately, they had protective talismans; otherwise, they would have had no chance of achieving their goal. Even so, the dangers remained immense.
But everyone was prepared for this; they had all come with their own agendas… only the situation was a bit worse.
They rested there for about a whole day before setting off again.
Follow the passage on the left and continue deeper into the demon's lair.
Upon arriving at the next monster's lair, everyone knew that in the eyes of these monsters, they were like an incredibly delicious meal, possessing a strong attraction that made it impossible for them to escape their attacks.
Therefore, no one took any chances and immediately began preparing for battle.
Sure enough, a dark shadow flickered from the passage on the right shortly afterward!
Another round of fighting and retreating has begun, slowly approaching the destination...
This process repeats itself continuously. When they feel physically and mentally exhausted and their magical power is depleted, Chen Xue will use her talisman to directly sweep away a monster's lair so that everyone can recover.
Thus, after releasing the talisman twice more and resting twice, they had already covered half the distance.
However, it was obvious that the golden-red radiance flowing over Chen Xue's talisman had dimmed considerably.
Even the surging and rich spiritual energy it emitted had weakened considerably. It was estimated that after two more uses, the power of this talisman would be almost exhausted.
We are getting closer and closer now, having covered nearly half the distance.
However, the monsters they faced were extremely powerful, and they often had to rest after passing three or four nests, making their pace increasingly slow.
When they tried to resist, they rarely achieved any significant results against hordes of demonic beasts. They mostly just held off the beasts' attacks and slowly retreated.
Lin Xiuyuan's talismans were being used up rapidly, but at this rate, they were still enough!
At this moment, as everyone's magical power was once again greatly depleted, it was time for them to rest again.
Chen Xue hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Shao Rong, why don't you use the Azure Jade Ring next? My Golden Flower Sword has already consumed too much power; it's better to save it for the final treasure hunt!"
A strange look flashed in Chen Shaorong's eyes, but he quickly nodded and replied, "Okay."
Next, Chen Shaorong and Chen Xue turned around, with Chen Xue taking the lead in the offensive, continuing to resist the advancing monsters.
Soon, when they arrived at the next monster's lair, everyone had exhausted their magical energy.
Upon seeing this, Chen Shaorong did not hesitate to take out a talisman.
It's similar in style to Chen Xue's, except it's a deep blue-green color and has fewer runes.
Their specific power was imperceptible; they could only sense with their divine sense that the talismans were of the same level as each other, and who was stronger or weaker.
Soon, as Chen Shaorong continuously poured his magical power into it, streaks of azure light began to appear.
The rays of light gradually intertwined and converged into a circular magical artifact, which looked as if it were carved from some kind of emerald green jade, with a captivating color and an extremely mystical feel.
The aura emanating from it was also quite terrifying and inexplicable, almost identical to that of the golden sword.
Chen Shaorong then directly activated the 'Azure Ring' and charged towards the passage on the right, sweeping through the monster's lair.
The group was quite adept at this. After the power of the talisman swept through the area, they all entered to eliminate the last threat, harvest the materials, and then rested on the spot to recover their magical power and tired bodies and minds.
After a day of rest, the team continued their journey deeper into the demon's lair during this long battle.
Nearly seven or eight days passed.
Chen Shaorong had already activated the talisman four times, and the spiritual light and power on it were already quite dim and weak. It seemed that he could only activate it one or two more times at most.
But at this moment, as everyone looked at the cleared monster nest in front of them, a hint of joy appeared on their tired faces.
The next monster's lair is our final destination!!
After resting here, everyone will be able to set off to seize the treasure and complete their mission.
"It'll be soon. With the help of the talisman, obtaining the treasure shouldn't be difficult. Afterwards, we can use the jade talisman to teleport out and get the high-grade Foundation Establishment Pill."
Lin Xiuyuan felt a surge of joy. As long as he helped Chen Xue seize the opportunity, he would basically have the high-grade Foundation Establishment Pill in his hands.
With the few spiritual items he possesses, he might be able to exchange them with the Five Elements Sect for some rare and precious materials to help him break through to the thirteenth level of Qi Refining.
That way, I'll have the best chance of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage!
