Raising Silkworms and Refining Gu from Mount Hundred Thousand

Zhou Qing patted the water and flew to the shore.

Not far away is a cave entrance with a radius of one foot. This cave entrance is dark and gloomy. It is unknown where it leads. The cold wind is pouring out of the cave.

"Let's go!" Chen Feng glanced at the entrance of the cave, grabbed the hilt of the sword behind him, and took the lead in walking towards the entrance of the cave.

Wu Chenzi followed closely behind.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Qing walked at the back.

After entering the dark cave entrance, there was a downward stone staircase in front of them. When they walked down the stone staircase, the three of them appeared in a huge underground cave.

The top of the cave is inlaid with more than a dozen fist-sized beads, which are emitting bursts of fluorescence, illuminating the entire cave.

"A luminous pearl?" Zhou Qing's eyes lit up. A luminous pearl is worth a thousand taels, and a dozen luminous pearls are worth more than 10,000 taels of silver.

Although the top of the cave is dozens of meters high from the ground and cannot be reached by ordinary Bone Refining Realm martial artists, he has Gu worms, and he can let the Golden Silkworm Gu worms pull down the luminous pearl when he walks.

"Brother Ding, that's the Blood Jade Mushroom! It looks like it's growing well after more than 20 years of growth!"

At this time, Wuchenzi pointed to the cave wall a hundred meters away.

Zhou Qing looked intently and saw a red mushroom about half a foot tall and about the size of a palm growing among a pile of white bones.

Whoosh!

As soon as Wuchenzi finished speaking, he flew out, came to the side of the blood jade mushroom, took out a jade shovel, and completely took out the blood jade mushroom together with its roots.

"Many elixirs can only be picked with a special jade shovel, so as not to damage the roots and affect the potency of the medicine."

Wuchenzi explained to Zhou Qing while digging the soil.

"Pintao will keep this Blood Jade Mushroom on your behalf and distribute it after leaving the cave."

After saying that, Wuchenzi put the blood jade mushroom into the jade box.

Zhou Qing had no objection to this either.

"Next" putting away the blood jade mushroom, Wuchenzi looked ahead at the steps leading to the next level.

Zhou Qing looked down. Compared with the steps on the first floor, the steps here were green and white, as if they were made of jade.

Swish, swish, swish.

Swish, swish, swish.

A dense sound suddenly came from the underground cave.

"What's the sound?!" Zhou Qing's heart sank and he stared at the steps below. The sound seemed to be coming from below.

However, not long after, scalp-numbing weird sounds came from all directions.

At this time, earth, rocks and dust began to fall from the top of the cave.

Zhou Qing looked up suddenly and saw holes the size of a human head appearing above one after another.

"This is."

The dozen luminous pearls embedded on the top of the head actually moved at the same time.

The next moment, the scene in front of him made Zhou Qing's pupils shrink suddenly. The glowing luminous pearl was clearly the eye of a giant white spider as big as a calf.

Swish, swish, swish.

Swish, swish, swish.

The giant spider woke up, with more than a dozen eyes staring at Zhou Qing and the other three people at the same time. Countless white spiders fell from the entrance of the cave above their heads, each one the size of a fist.

Hiss! !

The spiders' eyes glowed green, and their screams filled the entire cave, as if they had been hungry for a long time.

Zhou Qing had no time to ask Wuchenzi, so he immediately turned his wrist, and a strange-shaped scimitar appeared in his hand. The sword was about two feet long, and the blade had an obvious curvature, like a crescent moon.

bass!

With the infusion of true essence, the Tian Centipede sword burst into red light. Zhou Qing just slashed it out gently, and dozens of crescent-shaped arc-shaped sword lights shot out.

Each of these sword lights is less than one foot, but there are enough.

A large airtight web formed above Zhou Qing's head. Countless spiders were smashed into pieces by the light of the knife, and their corpses were scattered all over the ground, covering the ground with a tight layer.

"Good sword skills!" Wuchenzi praised. He took out a whisk and swung it hard, and countless highly condensed needle-shaped Qi shot up into the sky, killing all the spiders wherever it passed.

As for Chen Feng on the side, he actually sat cross-legged behind the two of them, clasping his hands together, and chanting piously: "Please unsheath the divine sword!"

Whoosh!

The next moment, the long sword behind him slowly unsheathed, and the dazzling golden light dyed the entire cave wall with a layer of gold.

Buzz!

Accompanied by bursts of sword sounds, a long sword shrouded in golden light trembled violently, turning one into two, two into four, and four into eight.

In a moment, hundreds of pale golden sword lights appeared above Chen Feng's head.

The sword light passed through the small spiders all over the sky and struck directly at the giant spider the size of a calf.

The giant spider immediately flew to avoid it, spraying out a large amount of white silk threads from under its body, and its body wandered in mid-air, avoiding the sword light.

boom!

The sword light hit the top of the cave, and there was a loud noise.

Although the giant spider dodged most of the sword light, a small amount of the sword light still hit its body.

Bah! Bah!

Several spider legs covered with bristles fell down, and the giant spider suddenly lost its balance.

The severely injured giant spider became ferocious. It fell to the ground and crawled towards the three people.

However, Chen Feng released the next wave of sword light. The giant spider did not dare to block it, so it could only fly up and dodge with spider silk.

However, the needle-shaped Qi released by Wuchenzi cut the spider silk.

The giant spider drops again.

boom! !

The next moment, more than a dozen scarlet sword lights hit the abdomen of the giant spider, and the sword lights sank into its body.

"hiss--!!!"

The giant spider screamed in pain.

The next moment, sword light, sword light, and needle-shaped Qi were emitted at the same time, and the giant spider was killed on the spot.

Most of the remaining little spiders were eliminated by the three of them, just like chopping melons and vegetables.

Seeing that they were defeated, all these spiders got back into the holes.

At this time, a faint white air spread out in the field, and the temperature dropped further.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing was ready to go up and collect the spider's blood.

This giant spider must be one of the sources of the cold air in the cave. The blood that flowed out quickly condensed, and a layer of white frost appeared. It must be some kind of special alien species.

"Brother Ding, wait!"

Wu Chenzi on the side suddenly made a sound.

Zhou Qing looked back.

"Brother Ding, the opening time of the cave is limited, so hurry up and go to the next level first." Wuchenzi said quickly.

"If the Taoist Master is in a hurry, you can go ahead with Brother Chen, and I will store the spider corpse and spider blood." Zhou Qing said to himself.

Wuchenzi pondered for a moment and nodded: "That's good."

When Chen Feng saw this, he put away his golden sword and walked to the next level.

Wuchenzi goes down together.

Seeing the two people leaving, Zhou Qing released a golden silkworm Gu insect to follow them.

After confirming that the two of them were gone, he put the spider corpse into the inner space of the spirit plate, and then released hundreds of golden silkworm Gu worms and began to devour the little spiders everywhere.

Anyway, Wu Chenzi and Chen Feng shouldn't care about these little spiders.

After the golden silkworm Gu worms devoured all the spider corpses everywhere, Zhou Qing did not rush to the next level. Instead, he explored around the cave and let several golden silkworm Gu worms get into the holes. Look where these little spiders have their nests.

The cave opens every twenty-four years. Where does the food for these little spiders come from?

Some Gu insects will automatically enter a dormant state if they don't eat for a long time. They will become weak or even degenerate over time, but it is difficult to starve to death directly.

These little spiders are not Gu insects, and their vitality is not as tenacious as Gu insects.

"If Wu Chenzi is not hiding something, then something happened here that he doesn't know about."

Zhou Qing fell into deep thought.

When Wu Chenzi and Chen Feng took action just now, they didn't hold back at all, and it didn't look like they were acting.

"Um?!"

Just as Zhou Qing was thinking about it, he suddenly lost contact with the golden silkworm Gu insect that entered the second level.

Immediately afterwards, several golden silkworm Gu insects that got into the hole also lost contact one after another.

"Something's wrong!!"

Zhou Qing's expression changed slightly.

It can make the golden silkworm Gu insects lose contact instantly, which is something that ordinary bone refining realm martial artists cannot do.

Especially the one that quietly followed to the second underground floor, but the mutated golden silkworm Gu worm lost contact instantly.

"What should I do?" Zhou Qing's mind changed rapidly.

After a while, he went back the same way and returned to the cold pool from where he first came through the stone steps.

thump!

Zhou Qing jumped directly into the cold pool, only to find that the cold pool was less than ten meters deep and quickly swam to the bottom.

There is no way out.

Zhou Qing released Gu insects to explore the path, but did not find any secret passage.

In desperation, he could only return to the underground cave on the next level.

"We can only move forward!"

Zhou Qing gritted his teeth and walked towards the green and white steps leading to the second floor.

Hundreds of golden silkworm Gu worms protected him, and the Corpse Insect Gu King was also taken into the Wood King Cauldron by him, and merged into one with the Wood Spirit Corpse, ready to be released at any time to join the battle.

When Zhou Qing finished walking hundreds of green and white steps, he was in front of a rectangular stone chamber with a radius of a hundred feet. The walls of the entire stone chamber seemed to be made of ice crystals.

I saw a circular stone platform in the middle of the stone room. In the middle of the stone platform, a handsome man wearing a white cloak sat cross-legged, with a faint smile on his lips.

Wu Chenzi and Chen Feng, with their backs to Zhou Qing, stood in front of the handsome man, motionless.

"Taoist Master? Brother Chen?"

Zhou Qing did not step into the stone chamber, but shouted at the two of them from a distance.

At this time, Wuchenzi, who heard the noise, turned around first and said excitedly to Zhou Qing at the door of the stone room:

"Brother Ding! Come quickly! This is actually the cave of the third-level Gu Lord. This person is the 'Venerable Black Spider' who once dominated the southern border!"

After saying that, Wuchenzi turned back to look at the handsome man sitting cross-legged on the stone platform.

"Taoist Priest?!"

Zhou Qing shouted again, but Wuchenzi didn't respond.

"Brother Chen?!" Zhou Qing looked at Chen Feng who was standing aside.

Chen Feng turned around stiffly, only to see that his originally handsome face was covered with white frost, and ferocious spider-like eyes appeared on both sides of his cheeks, looking extremely ferocious.

"Go quickly!"

Chen Feng's face was distorted, and he squeezed out a few words through his teeth, as if he was enduring some kind of pain.

"Damn it!" Zhou Qing's face instantly darkened.

"You, a junior, are cautious."

At this time, a joking voice sounded from the stone chamber.
