Chapter 78 Magic ineffective? Overcome it with brute force!
Soon, after the initial panic, Yu Fengling gradually regained her composure.
No longer will we confront the giant python head-on.
Instead, it relied on the light shield for defense and dodged.
At the same time, they continuously cast minor spells such as ice spikes and golden blades, targeting the giant python's weak points such as its eyes, mouth, and nose.
It must be said that the Three Talents Bracelet greatly enhanced her three spiritual roots.
Not only is the power of spells significantly increased.
Even the consumption of spiritual energy has been reduced considerably.
After a fierce struggle, the giant python was covered in wounds, one of its eyes was destroyed and bleeding profusely.
Yu Fengling was also exhausted and covered in sweat, her face flushed.
But Peach Blossom's eyes sparkled with excitement.
"Go to hell!"
Seizing the moment when the giant python missed its target, Yu Fengling let out a sharp cry and poured all the remaining spiritual energy in her body into the bracelet.
All three gems lit up at the same time!
The three colors of light—gold, water, and wood—intertwined and converged at her fingertips into a three-foot-long tri-colored light blade!
With all my might, I swung the light blade forward!
"call out!"
The blade of light pierced the air, slicing through the wound on the giant python's neck!
The enormous snake head shot skyward, spraying blood from its cavity onto the ground.
The enormous snake twitched and writhed on the ground for a moment before finally coming to a stop.
"call……"
Yu Fengling, supporting herself on her knees and panting heavily, looked at the huge snake corpse in front of her, her face full of relief at surviving the ordeal and excitement at personally killing a powerful enemy.
"not bad."
Qin Xiao's voice came from the side, "Knowing how to use advantages and attack weaknesses, instead of just blindly going all out."
Yu Fengling looked up and saw Qin Xiao's approving gaze. She immediately puffed out her chest proudly and said, as if asking for credit, "Of course!"
Qin Xiao shook his head, stepped forward, took out a pill and handed it to her: "Take this. These are some simple pills I made during the weapon refining process to restore your spiritual power."
"Thank you, my husband!"
Yu Fengling happily accepted the pill and swallowed it. A warm current flowed through her limbs and bones, and her depleted spiritual energy was quickly restored.
The two continued on their way.
Soon, a dark cave entrance appeared at the foot of the mountain wall.
The cave entrance is about two zhang high.
Some rusty weapons were scattered around.
A cold, damp smell mixed with the rusty odor emanated from the cave.
"This is it."
Qin Xiao said.
Yu Fengling peered curiously into the cave, but it was pitch black inside and she couldn't see anything.
She tried to activate her spiritual power, and a soft golden ball of light appeared at her fingertips, illuminating the darkness ahead.
The two entered the mine.
The cave walls were damp, and there were traces of excavation everywhere.
Shallow puddles of water had accumulated on the ground.
After walking about a hundred meters, a fork in the road appeared ahead.
Qin Xiao stopped and spread his divine sense to explore the internal structure of the mine.
The mine is a maze of interconnected tunnels.
It seems that someone else came here before and tried to mine it.
However, the result was not satisfactory...
"Stay close to me."
Qin Xiao chose the passage with the most obvious spiritual energy fluctuations and stepped inside.
The deeper you go, the richer the spiritual energy in the air becomes.
Some ore with a metallic luster began to appear on the cave walls; it was ordinary black iron ore.
Yu Fengling's eyes lit up, and she couldn't resist reaching out to touch it.
Qin Xiao spoke up to stop them, "These are all low-quality by-product minerals, useless to cultivators. The real veins are deeper inside."
After walking for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the view before us suddenly opened up.
They arrived at a huge underground cavern.
The cave ceiling is high and suspended, with countless huge stalactites hanging down.
In the very center of the cave, a thick, luminous mineral vein is embedded in the rock wall.
"Wow……"
Yu Fengling let out a gasp of surprise.
However, Qin Xiao's gaze did not linger on the mineral vein.
Instead, it landed in front of the mine, a dense mass of things that covered the ground like snow.
It's a spider web!
Thick and tough, layer upon layer.
It covered the entire area in front of the mine.
There are also some animal skeletons posted online.
There were even several human skeletons that had long since dried out.
There's something there.
Qin Xiao spoke calmly.
Before the words were finished, a rustling sound suddenly came from deep within the cave.
A huge black shadow slowly crawled out of the darkness.
That was a giant spider, as big as a horse-drawn carriage!
Its eight long legs were covered with black bristles.
Its body has a hard, shell-like outer shell that gleams with a metallic sheen.
The abdomen was swollen and the patterns on it were bizarre.
Its head was covered with eight blood-red compound eyes, which were all locked onto Qin Xiao and Yu Fengling, and a violent aura suddenly spread out!
"Monster."
Qin Xiao narrowed his eyes. "However, it's only at the first level."
Yu Fengling turned pale with fright and instinctively grabbed Qin Xiao's sleeve.
The aura emanating from this demonic spider was many times stronger than that of the giant python from before!
"hiss!"
Suddenly, the spider let out a shriek.
With a flick of its front legs, it suddenly sprayed out a large white net, which enveloped the two of them!
Without a second thought, Yu Fengling immediately activated her light shield.
However, when the spider web hit the light shield, it stuck to it and quickly tightened, making a "sizzling" corrosive sound.
The light shield dimmed at a visible speed!
"Oh no! Is this internet toxic?"
Yu Fengling exclaimed in surprise.
Qin Xiao frowned slightly, put his arm around Yu Fengling's waist, and in a flash, he appeared dozens of meters away, avoiding the spider web.
Seeing that its first attack had failed, the spider moved all eight of its long legs and pounced forward with its massive body!
"Husband, be careful!"
Yu Fengling exclaimed in surprise.
Qin Xiao remained expressionless and pushed Yu Fengling aside.
Instead of retreating, he advanced and went to meet them.
He formed a sword with his fingers, and a flash of crimson-gold light appeared at his fingertips!
Fireball!
A crimson-gold fireball the size of a human head appeared out of thin air, carrying intense heat, and crashed head-on into the demon spider.
The spider, relying on its hard shell, neither dodged nor avoided, but instead crossed its two front legs in front of it.
"boom!"
The fireball exploded in front of the demon spider, turning into a sea of fire!
However, when the flames subsided, the spider was only slightly charred on its carapace and was not harmed at all!
Instead, it was completely enraged, let out another shriek, opened its ferocious mouth, and spat out a stream of dark green venom!
Qin Xiao dodged easily with a swift movement.
The venom, once it hit the ground, immediately corroded large pits and emitted a foul-smelling blue smoke.
"That's interesting."
Qin Xiao became interested: "A mere first-tier demonic beast, yet so arrogant. It seems it still suffers from insufficient magic!"
As they spoke, he no longer held back, a thought forming in his mind.
A surge of powerful spiritual energy erupted forth!
"If magic fails, then let's overcome it with force!"
Qin Xiao's eyes hardened, and he raised his hand, palm facing upward.
A ball of crimson-gold flame rose up, rapidly expanding and transforming in the air!
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a giant fire dragon over ten zhang long!
The giant dragon coiled and roared, its eyes wide with rage, emitting terrifying heat that caused the temperature in the entire cave to rise sharply!
Yu Fengling watched in stunned silence, her mouth agape, wide enough to fit an egg. "What kind of magic is this?"
"This is not magic; it's just the external manifestation of spiritual energy."
As Qin Xiao spoke, his gaze remained fixed on the demonic spider.
At this moment, fear appeared in the eight blood-red compound eyes of the demon spider, and it turned to flee into the darkness!
"Want to leave now? Too late!"
Qin Xiao snorted coldly and pushed his palm forward.
The fiery dragon let out a deafening roar, and with an aura of incineration, it pounced on the demon spider!
