Natural Fairy Species

Chapter 71 Cleaning up after the war

 Duh!

Two legs of the giant grimace jade spider were cut off, green blood spattered, and it lost its balance and fell from the stone wall.

With its abdomen exposed, Bai Zichen would not give it a chance to turn over, and the sword light came out directly from the body.

The grimace jade spider shook twice, then fell to the ground with a thud, leaving only its legs still twitching unconsciously.

 Looking back, I saw that it was already a mess.

There was a big hole in the round shield on Cai Heng's hand, and he flew far away. There was a little bit of poison on his body, and his robe and skin were all ulcerated.

Now I have changed my weapon to a wooden stick, and I am fighting and retreating at the same time. I am extremely embarrassed.

Lu Song lost his powerful set of golden swords and magic weapons, and attached a magical talisman to himself. He tried his best to dodge the attacks of the Grimace Jade Spider, and threw two basic fire spells from time to time to attract the Grimace Jade Spider's attention.

Luo Qi fell to the ground, with a hole in his chest and blood staining the entire Taoist robe. His life and death were unknown.

Only Xun Shuang was still holding on. The spark from the oil lamp only grew to the size of a peanut, but when it swung towards the Grimace Jade Spider, it frightened the beast into squeaking and turning to avoid it.

However, with Xun Shuang's cultivation level, he has been able to activate a high-grade magic weapon for such a long time, which is obviously the limit.

 His face was as golden as paper, and blood was dripping from his mouth and nose. He was trying his best to squeeze out every ounce of mana in his body.

 Looking at this posture, the oil is about to run out and the lamp is drying up, which is hurting the source.

“Continuously wielding flying swords consumes mana too quickly... No wonder swordsmen are all about killing people with one sword. If it drags on into a protracted battle, the biggest advantage of flying swords will be lost.”

 Bai Zichen felt waves of fatigue in his body. Fortunately, the Red Gai Orb Umbrella, a top-quality magical weapon, did not consume much mana. With the string of orbs, it itself contained a lot of spiritual power.

 After adjusting for a while, he took advantage of the moment when the remaining ghost-faced jade spider jumped up and tried to skewer Cai Heng with its legs. The sword light moved quickly, looked at its weak point, and pierced its abdomen with a sword.

 Compared to the giant grimace jade spider, this normal-sized body is much weaker.

If Bai Zichen hadn't fought a big battle and lacked mana, the head-on fight would have been a matter of swords.

Two demonic beasts were attacking each other. Cai Heng, who had narrowly escaped death, fell to the ground. Only when he realized the pain on his body did he take out a dagger and cut off a few pieces of rotten flesh with his teeth.

Xun Shuang felt relieved when he saw that the field was safe. He could no longer hold on, his eyes darkened and he passed out.

The sparks went out in a flash, and the oil lamp hit the ground with a clang and turned over twice.

On the contrary, Lu Song was in the best condition. Although he had dodged the attacks of the Grimace Jade Spider time and time again, his mind was haggard, and his robes were soaked on his back, but at least he was not physically injured.

He quickly helped Luo Qi up, pulled open his monk's robe, took out a bottle of medicinal powder and poured it on the wound on his chest, and then bandaged it twice with cotton cloth.

“Senior Brother Cai, is there any life-saving elixir?”

“There is a pill of Hui Huan Sheng Sheng Pills, please give it to Junior Brother Luo first.”

Cai Heng paused, took out a jade bottle from his storage bag, and handed it over solemnly.

Lu Song gave Luo Qi the longan-sized elixir in the jade bottle. His breathing quickly calmed down, and the holes in his internal organs that could almost be seen began to stop bleeding.

 The two of them breathed a sigh of relief. Luo Qi finally saved his life.

“Senior Brother Bai, our information was wrong this time, I’m sorry.”

After resting for a quarter of an hour, Cai Heng got up, limped to Bai Zichen, and bowed to apologize.

“If it hadn’t been for Senior Brother Bai’s bravery to kill both the Grimace Jade Spiders, this cave would be the burial place of our brothers today.”

 Speaking of this, Cai Heng still felt a sense of fear in his heart.

When the second, bigger, ghost-faced jade spider appeared, Cai Heng was so heartbroken that he thought he was about to die.

All the plans were based on the first-order top-grade Grimace Jade Spider, but suddenly a top-grade first-order mutant came in, and it was hard to cope with it.

Let alone whether Senior Brother Bai has this ability, how can the inner disciples be willing to take risks and fight for them? With the flying sword in hand, he can leave with the sword at any time.

I never thought that Bai Zichen was amazing. She cut the peak of the ghost -faced jade spider alone, and successfully saved everyone's life.

“The limbs and limbs of this mutated ghost-faced jade spider will be left to Senior Brother Bai to handle.”

The eight limbs of an ordinary Grimace Jade Spider can draw 160 sect contribution points from the General Affairs Hall, and the mutated Grimace Jade Spider is definitely worth more.

Whether it was to express gratitude or to follow the principle of whoever contributed the most gets the big share, Cai Heng made a decision quickly.

"I said before we set off that we would only take the poison sacs and other harvests from the cave. I have nothing to do with the limbs. You can take them for yourselves."

Bai Zichen's eyes lingered back and forth between Ghostface Jade Spider and Cai Heng for a moment, and he said calmly.

The sect’s contribution naturally attracted people’s attention. Although he could not promise a large sum of money, he would not break the agreement for a few spider legs.

“Senior Brother Bai is so righteous, no matter what you are driven to do from now on, I will not fail to obey you.”

Cai Heng was stunned for a long time, convinced that Bai Zichen was not joking, and then he bowed sincerely to the end.

 After resting for half an hour, most of the people except Luo Qi recovered, and then they started to clean up the battlefield.

Two ghost-faced jade spiders had eighteen limbs. Bai Zichen chopped off all of them with a black bamboo sword, tied them into bundles with hemp ropes, and carried them on Cai Heng and Lu Song's backs.

These limbs are too long to fit in the storage bag.

 The two poison sacs, one large and one small, were taken out by Xun Shuang and handed over to Bai Zichen respectfully.

These two things on the Grimace Jade Spider are valuable, and all the other parts cannot be sold for even two spiritual stones if shipped back.

“There is an extremely low probability that there are two Grimace Jade Spiders in the cave. If there are more, there won’t be enough food for them to survive... Search the area nearby. If nothing is found, return to the sect.”

Bai Zichen threw the poison sac into a separate storage bag, stood up and walked deeper into the cave.

 Speaking of which, the Grimace Jade Spider is obviously a solitary monster, so it’s quite strange that there are two here at the same time.

Xun Shuang stayed to take care of Luo Qi, while Lu Song and Cai Heng accompanied him to explore the passage.

"This time when I went out, I didn't gain much in terms of external possessions, but I learned a lot in wielding a sword... When I used the sword before, I used more mana. There is no need to inject the same mana into each sword. Some moves can achieve the same effect with 70% of the mana. Being able to understand this will at least give me ten more swords."

Bai Zichen just searched all the caves out of habit, not expecting any surprises.

“In addition, I rely too much on flying swords to fight against enemies, and I don’t have real sword techniques to match them... If I encounter an enemy with a hard body or a top-quality protective weapon like the Grimace Jade Spider, it will be difficult to attack and deal with it.”

Bai Zichen only felt that his method of dealing with the enemy was a bit simplistic, but he ignored that the mutated jade spider with a grimace was already a first-order peak monster, equivalent to a monk who had reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.

Even the monsters to be dealt with in the first level of the True Disciple Trial are at this level.

 Single-handedly slayed a first-order peak monster with a sword, and when word spread, it was already frightening a group of inner disciples.

 “Senior Brother Bai, come to my side and take a look, there is a monk’s skeleton!”

Lu Song's voice came from the next passage, surprising and happy.
