Chapter 515 - Miluo Heavenly Spider’s Slaying Gossamer

Chapter 515 Miluo Heavenly Spider’s Slaying Gossamer
The tunnel of the underground cave was connected in all directions, and they didn’t know where it led to.

This way… yes, go on, turn right!
Ji Yingqi, who was lying on Ding Hao’s back, led the way in a low voice.
The girl had a natural ability to distinguish directions, which was even stronger than Ding Hao’s intuition at the realm of
A World inside the Body
in the sixth level of
Mind Essential.
With her guidance, the three people had not been in the awkward situation of getting lost for a long time.
However, Ding Hao had been sensing the property of the law of the seventh section of the ancient road.
The surrounding walls of the underground limestone cave were ancient rocks that had existed for tens of thousands of years. They seemed to be of the earth property. However, the dripping water and the river that appeared from time to time seemed to be of the water property. The spatial vortexes that were about one meter to two meters in diameter seemed to indicate that there was a large portion of the space element…
Compared with the previous six sections of the ancient road, the property of power elements was not clear in this place.



Such an environment…
There was a flash of inspiration in Ding Hao’s mind. Suddenly, something occurred to him. A hint of joy appeared on his face.
Wasn’t this kind of environment where the ‘Nine Emperor’s Heart-protecting Bamboo Shoots’ could be found?

With this thought in mind, Ding Hao was in no hurry. He released his Divine Senses and observed everything within a kilometer.
Two hours later.

Wait!

Ding Hao finally found something.
He walked sixteen steps to the south and slowly squatted down.
In a puddle beside a bamboo shoot, an object that looked like a yellow mushroom was slowly growing. It had an orange crown and a snowy white stem. It looked like a mini umbrella, but it gave out a strong fragrance.
It seemed to have intelligence. It was like a little person, struggling desperately in Ding Hao’s hand, trying to escape.

Nine Emperor’s Heart-protecting Bamboo Shoots!

Ji Yingqi and Ji Yingnan’s eyes shined in an instant.


Especially the latter, his whole body trembled, and ecstasy drowned him. The taciturn swordsman said in a trembling voice,
This… is… the Ninth Emperor’s Heart-protecting… Bamboo shoots… They must be. Right, Master Ding?

The brother and sister, even the entire Ji family in the Yu Province, had frantically searched for the
Nine Emperor’s Heart-protecting Bamboo Shoots,
so they knew the shape and color of this magical herb best.
For Ji Yingnan, the appearance of this plant was deeply engraved in his mind and soul. The life-saving hope that he had been searching for, at this moment, had suddenly appeared without any sign. It felt somewhat incredible to him. Therefore, he wanted to get a positive answer from Ding Hao.
Ding Hao nodded.

However, this
Nine Emperors’ Heart-protecting Bamboo Shoots
seem to be only a hundred years old. It is too small and its color isn’t golden yellow. It has insufficient spirituality and low efficacy.
Ding Hao placed the precious herb in the storage ring and said with a smile,
I see that the environment here is suitable for the growth of the ‘Nine Emperors’ Heart-protecting Bamboo Shoots’. This kind of treasure is fascicular. As long as one appears, others will appear within a kilometer radius. Let’s look for it carefully.


Yes, yes, yes. Search carefully… Search…
Ji Yingnan almost burst into tears.

After so many years, when my hope was at the lowest, I finally found this magical herb. My sister’s ailment finally has a treatment. It’s curable! Mom, Dad, you can rest in peace. I have kept my promise to you. Although I am not a qualified heir to the family, I should be a qualified as an elder brother, right?

Ji Yingnan had an impulse to laugh wildly.
With Ding Hao’s guidance, Ji Yingnan began to search carefully in the surrounding furrow and puddles.
Soon, Ding Hao found another two or three shoots.


However, they were still not old enough. The best-looking one was only about 200 years old. Its tip had grown from orange to yellow, and it had yet to fully grow. Ding Hao wanted to continue to growing this kind of magic herbs, so he kept them in the storage ring and protected them with effective storage methods.
Ji Yingnan was so anxious that his forehead was covered with sweat.
Ji Yingqi lay on Ding Hao’s back and giggled.
After a few days care by Ding Hao, the little girl’s cheeks were finally a little plump and ruddy. Her hair, which was originally like withered weeds, also became shiny and dense. She was full of energy. She smiled and said,
Brother, don’t worry. Look at your sweating face. Hee, you will find it. Brother Ding is also here…

Seeing his sister getting better and the rare smile on her face, Ji Yingnan felt warm in his heart.
The unprecedented happiness made the reticent swordsman excited enough to cry.
When he was about to say something, his pupils suddenly shrank, and his eyes were fixed on a place more than 20 meters ahead of him.

That is…

An ecstasy that he had never felt before had instantly drowned him.
It was because twenty meters away in the pool under the huge milky white stone shoots, a golden yellow and fragrant Nine Emperors’ Heart-protecting Bamboo Shoots, whose height reached an adult’s waist, was gently stretching its stem. Its weak but bright flame lit up the entire tunnel, making it mysterious and beautiful!


This shoot was at least a thousand years old.
Ji Yingnan’s eyes lit up. With this magic medicine, his sister’s condition could not only be cured, but she might also be able to recover in the shortest time. It may even improve her meridians and constitution. She would also have the possibility to practice magic skills and martial arts to become a martial artist in the future.

Master Ding, haha, I found a big one…

With a loud shout, Ji Yingnan turned around and ran quickly toward the Nine Emperors’ Heart-protecting Bamboo Shoots.
He beamed with excitement.
Ding Hao smiled and nodded. Just as he was about to say something, the uneasiness in his heart suddenly intensified. Something occurred to him. He realized something and was immediately shocked. He hurriedly shouted,
Be careful, keep away from it…

Before his voice died away—
Ji Yingnan was already next to the plant and had bent down to pick it.

Ah? Master Ding, what did you say…? Sister, look…
Ji Yingnan held the king-level bamboo shoots in his hand and turned to show Ding Hao and Ji Yingqi. He was full of joy.
Right at that moment…



Swoosh! Swoosh!

A series of small noises rang out in the tunnel.
A streak of gossamer-like silver thread flashed and darted from all directions.
Ji Yingnan’s body suddenly froze on the spot, as if he had been petrified. The king-level bamboo shoots in his hand suddenly fell down.
His arm also fell down!
A very smooth cut appeared on his wrist.
The skin, flesh, blood vessels, and bones could be seen through the cut, which was shocking.
The smile froze on his face.

Puff!

After the slight sound, blood lines, which were as thin as threads, appeared on his exposed skin. It also densely covered every part of his body, including arms, shoulders, waist, legs, and head.
Then, the most terrifying thing happened.
The blood lines twitched and blood gushed out. In a flash, Ji Yingnan’s body was turned into hundreds of pieces of flesh and bones. His body was like a carrot that had been cut by a sharp knife. All kinds of strange cuts had turned him into a pile of minced meat!
Blood sprayed on the Nine Emperors’ Heart-protecting Bamboo Shoots, and it was still warm!
Even the sword he carried on his back was also broken into scores of pieces!
Ji Yingqi was stunned.
The smile froze on her face.
She didn’t understand what was going on.
It was her brother who loved her the most, collapsed in front of her. His body broke into pieces of irregular flesh, blood, bones, and organs which scattered all over the ground. And the waters under his feet turned into pools of blood…
The girl, who had thought she was the happiest person in the world moments before, stared blankly at the miserable scene in front of her. For a long time, she didn’t realize what had happened, and then she fainted before she could make any sound.
Ding Hao was shocked and angry.

What the hell is it?

His Divine Senses surged out and swept across the surrounding area within a kilometer.
Then, in the space where Ji Yingnan died tragically, Ding Hao
saw
a trace of silver filament which was invisible to the naked eye. It seemed to be invisible. He did not know what material it was made of, but it densely covered the space within twenty meters around the blood pool. It was like an invisible spider web, completely blocking the space!

It… was definitely not natural.


This was…


A trap!


Who did this?

With a flash of inspiration in his mind, Ding Hao thought of something.
He didn’t rush up angrily, but immediately turned around and winked at Evil Moon and the dolphin, Adorable.
In an instant, the man and the two beasts hid themselves very carefully in a rock gap, watching the changes in the surroundings quietly. Although Ding Hao’s killing intent had burst out at this time, he clearly knew that he couldn’t act rashly. Someone had set a very delicate trap there, and he was afraid that there was a big scheme at play.
Just as he expected, something strange happened in less than ten seconds.
More than twenty figures unexpectedly appeared in the surrounding crevices of the black and purple spatial faults. They appeared in the karst cave and slowly surrounded the place where Ji Yingnan died!

We’ve succeeded? Haha!


It’s worth taking a lot of trouble to kill a disaster such as Ding Hao, isn’t it?


It must be him. We have been observing his movements all the way. An hour ago, he was about three kilometers away from here. Hehe, Ding Hao had spread the news in the giant city of
the Highest Heaven
that he had to get the
Nine Emperor’s Heart-protecting Bamboo Shoots
at all costs. I thought that if he saw this king-level bamboo shoots, he would immediately go and try to dig it up. Being caught off guard, he would definitely be unable to escape the final attack of the ‘Miluo Heavenly Spider’s Slaying Gossamer’!


Haha, yes, that’s right. It’s a rare treasure that can even cut open a god’s body!
