Chapter 69 Spider and Snake Corpses
It was a black spider covered in dense white hair, larger than three tanks combined. Its eighteen scarlet eyes emitted a scarlet light, which made people feel terrified when looking into its eyes.
This is a powerful mutant beast, it has reached the twentieth level. Moreover, the mutant beasts in the abyss are far more powerful than those outside. The twenty-first-level mutant spider in front of you is equivalent to the twenty-first-level one outside.
In this situation, even if the God of War meets alone, he will have to stay away. If four Gods of War join forces, they can barely try to besiege the enemy, but the situation will not be ideal.
"Get out of the way. Although we don't know why this thing appeared in the snake cave, we can't afford to provoke it." The war gods lowered their voices and said immediately.
"Spiders use the vibrations on their silk to sense the approach of their prey, so we should try not to touch the silk."
Everyone followed in the footsteps of the war gods, advancing cautiously and not daring to be negligent at all.
"That big spider seems to be moving?"
"Are you sure you saw it right? Its direction didn't seem to change just now?"
"It really hasn't changed. It's still facing us. But our position has changed..."
The martial saints walking behind were communicating with each other in fear.
Yang Chen also noticed the huge spider mutant beast, which looked over from their position.
The spider mutant's vision was limited, and it could only see the heat map at close range. If it wanted to attack them, it could do so at any time. It might have already made some moves just now, but now it remained silent, watching them leave.
This situation is unreasonable. Is the spider afraid of something?
Some guesses emerged in Yang Chen's mind. He felt that there must be some danger inside the seemingly quiet snake cave.
"There should be no more mutant snakes in the snake cave." Yang Chen said to the Lord of the White Dragon Crystal Core.
"How do you confirm it?" The Lord of the White Dragon Crystal Core did not expect what Yang Chen guessed.
"If there are snake mutants inside, then theoretically there won't be spiders. You know, snake mutants are generally stronger than spiders. This should be an empty nest."
Since it is an empty nest, it means that it is unlikely that there are treasures such as snake eggs left inside.
Of course, this is actually a good thing for them, because it means they can collect the crystals inside more safely.
Usually, there is a high possibility of high-level crystals appearing inside the nests of mutant beasts, and most mutant beasts will increase their strength by absorbing the energy of crystals.
The Lord of the White Dragon Crystal Core nodded without comment.
However, Yang Chen found that the little white snake hovering on his shoulder began to become restless. From time to time, it would spit out its tongue and look around, as if it was trying to identify something.
Because he couldn't understand the mutant beasts' way of communication, Yang Chen didn't understand what the little white snake's abnormal behavior meant. He vaguely felt that this snake cave was dangerous.
Everyone walked along the spacious passage. The width of the passage depended on the size of the largest mutant beast. Usually, the minimum width of the passage would be a circle larger than the largest mutant beast.
The main passage they were currently walking through was twice as spacious as the nest of the blue python they had previously discovered, which meant that there had once been very large snakes in it.
A fork in the road finally appeared in front of everyone. After some hesitation, Yang Ling and Liu Ruhong discussed it briefly and decided to go their separate ways.
Of course, in theory, it looked like the result of a discussion between the two Martial Gods, but in reality, it was the result of a discussion between the Crystal Core Master behind the scenes.
"Let's go separately and explore as many areas as possible. We enter the abyss to obtain treasures. If we can obtain technology that the territory currently does not have, it would be even better."
The master of the White Dragon Crystal Core has true knowledge and insight.
Yang Chen nodded. He would not deny this decision at all. Moreover, when he thought that there might be a device that disturbed time and space in the abyss, Yang Chen began to get excited.
I’ve traveled to other places before and witnessed wars between powerful territories. After using the space-time disturbance device, I became almost invincible. It’s exciting to think about it.
The two Martial Gods separated and led their troops to continue forward towards the fork in the road. Yang Chen's team was led by Liu Ruhong, and at this moment, the Lord of the White Dragon Crystal Core had already controlled Yang Ling, and she would switch over at any time to confirm the situation with Yang Chen.
Yang Chen also placed one of the Martial Saints under his control in Yang Ling's team, ready to switch over at any time to check the situation on that side.
He knew that the former Martial God of their Xuantian Territory had never returned after entering the abyss, and was very likely to have died in the abyss. He wanted to find him alive or dead. The second purpose of entering the abyss was to find the body of the Martial God Xuantian.
"Wait, there's something weird ahead!" Liu Ruhong heard the sound of dripping water falling in front of her, accompanied by a strong smell of blood.
This situation is not normal. It seems that a fierce battle took place not long ago.
Yang Chen's perception was not as sharp as that of the God of War, but he still moved forward in the form of a projected incarnation to check the situation.
In just a moment, Yang Chen arrived at the scene of the accident.
The ground was covered in blood, with newly formed blood rivers. The entire ground had turned into red amber. The blood beneath this place was quite old and had solidified.
The blood here is flowing from the inside of the passage. The blood is constantly flowing from a distance, which looks shocking.
Occasionally, some mutant beasts’ broken limbs would float above the blood flow.
"It's spider legs!" Yang Chen saw some spider limbs. The spider with white hair and black substance was torn into countless pieces. Their limbs floated on the blood and flowed down.
However, most of them are the corpses of snake mutants. The blood comes from these snakes, and the largest of them is no more than twenty meters long.
"A battle between spiders and snakes? These snakes look like they're still young though."
A picture suddenly appeared in Yang Chen's mind. For some reason, the snakes in the nest decided to move their position, but the snake cubs did not have time to move. At this time, they were invaded by spiders on a large scale, and the snake cubs died tragically in the nest.
At this moment, Liu Ruhong had also arrived with everyone. They smelled the strong smell of blood in the air and covered their noses.
"I thought it was strange to see spiders in a snake's nest before, but now even spider corpses have appeared, and there are also a large number of snake corpses. Judging from the damaged state of the corpses, it seems that there must have been a fierce battle between the spiders and snakes."
"But these spiders are not of very high level, about level 15." Liu Ruhong frowned.
The spider guarding outside just now was at level 20, and should be the culprit responsible for leading these children to besiege the nest.
Obviously, it didn't attack them just now because it was not in a hurry. Perhaps it would be attacked when they left later.
The big spider was probably guarding outside and had no intention of letting any of the little snakes escape.
