Chapter 134 - 103: There Must Be a Demon When Things Go Abnormal
The healing technique cast by the Sacred Moon Morning Glory transformed into rings of light, falling onto the three bowls placed on the ground.
How strange…
As soon as the healing technique landed, the blood and petals in the three bowls began to bubble non-stop!
“Glug glug!”
“Glug glug!”
It was as if there was a fire burning under the bowls.
The Blood Petal Flower Demon’s blood in the three bowls seemed to be boiling!
A peculiar fragrance wafted out, invigorating Shen Hongxiu and Shen Daodao, both of whom were injured.
Chen Fan watched the bowls on the ground and let the Sacred Moon Morning Glory continue casting the healing technique.
He waited until the bubbles in the three bowls stopped before instructing Shen Daodao to bring them over for the King Death Spider to drink.
Shen Daodao didn’t move.
He grimaced and asked, “Chen Fan, are you sure this will work… The blood of the Blood Petal Flower Demon can indeed be extracted and used to create healing medicine. ”
“However, the Blood Petal Flower Demon’s blood is poisonous. Although the poison isn’t too scary, this is still the blood of a level 9 Blood Petal Flower
Demon. ”
“If the King Death Spider dies from drinking these three bowls of blood, my brother will kill me!”
Chen Fan felt so tired at heart.
Every time he asked Shen Daodao to do something, this guy would babble on incessantly.
Chen Fan suspected that if he asked him to eat, he might even ask how big the bowl was, how long the chopsticks were, and what types of dishes there were…
Seeing Chen Fan frown, Shen Hongxiu immediately kicked Shen Daodao: “Stop talking nonsense and hurry up!”
Feeling aggrieved, Shen Daodao reluctantly served the bowls.
Standing before the King Death Spider, Shen Daodao whispered, “Spider, this is something Chen Fan made, and he told me to give it to you. If you get poisoned and die, don’t blame me.”
“If you die and become a ghost, remember to find Chen Fan, and don’t come looking for me.”
Chen Fan:
Shen Hongxiu and the others: ‘
King Death Spider was about to drink when it heard Shen Daodao’s words, immediately closed its mouth, and looked at Shen Hongxiu.
Shen Hongxiu was infuriated. She walked up leisurely, snatched the bowl from Shen Daodao’s hands, and kicked him away.
“Spider, drink it.”
Shen Hongxiu said softly, “He just helped you get rid of most of the Black Fire Poison. Drinking this Blood Petal Flower Demon’s blood will help heal your injuries.”
The King Death Spider drank down all three large bowls of blood mixed with Blood Petal Flower Demon petals.
Soon enough…
“Crack, crack, crack!”
Strange sounds emanated from the King Death Spider’s body.
The previously weak and listless King Death Spider suddenly propped itself up!
Shen Hongxiu’s face showed astonishment. She gently placed her hand on the King Death Spider’s head and exclaimed, “The chaotic Star Power in the spider’s body has been contained!”
The King Death Spider was originally poisoned by the Black Fire Poison and was brutally whipped by the Blood Petal Flower King, scattering its Star Power and making it difficult to control. That’s why it had been fleeing desperately from the Skyfire Ants and Blood Petal Flower Demons.
Even when it saw the Magic Tyrannosaurus and Blood Petal Flower Demon earlier, it had no choice but to turn tail and run.
But now, under Shen Hongxiu’s sensing, although the King Death Spider’s injuries had not completely healed, its Star Power was no longer as chaotic as before and had begun rapidly recovering!
“Is that for real?”
Shen Daodao walked over, wishing to touch the King Death Spider.
But the King Death Spider kicked him away with one foot.
The King Death Spider was also furious… Shen Daodao had scared it just now! It almost didn’t dare to drink such a good thing because of what he said!
“Xiaofan, you’re amazing!”
Shen Hongxiu turned around, swiftly walked up, and held Chen Fan’s hand, asking, “Why did this happen? Can the level 9 Blood Petal Flower Demon’s blood directly heal Guardian Beasts or Guardian Beastmasters?” Ye Hao and Chu Xuan exchanged glances, their eyes filled with disbelief.
“Of course it can’t heal directly.”
Chen Fan withdrew his hand and said indifferently, “As Shen Daodao said, unless it’s from a level 12 or higher Blood Petal Flower King, regular Blood Petal Flower Demon’s blood is poisonous. It can only be used as a healing medicine after extracting certain substances using secret methods.”
“But Hua Hua’s healing technique can dispel the poison and cause a series of chemical reactions…”
Shen Daodao chimed in like a comic foil in a comedy skit, “Oh? What kind of chemical reactions?”
Chen Fan silently glanced at Shen Daodao and turned back to the Golden Gyrfalcon’s back.
Shen Daodao looked at Shen Hongxiu, “Shen Hongxiu, why is he so arrogant? He ignored me!”
Shen Hongxiu glanced at him and quietly returned to the Golden Gyrfalcon’s back.
Chu Xuan didn’t have to be mentioned – if others didn’t initiate conversation with her, she might remain silent all day.
Shen Daodao looked at Ye Hao, who was jotting something down in a small notebook.
“Ye Hao, what are you doing?”
“Idiot, Brother Fan taught us so much, don’t you know to take notes?”
“Is there any need for notes… Using the blood of the Dragon Blood Mad Lion and the Split Earth Fire Dragon to eliminate Black Fire Poison, letting a healing-type Guardian Beast use its healing technique on the Blood Petal Flower Demon’s blood and petals to heal wounds… Do you still need notes for that? I have an excellent memory; I’ve already etched it into my mind!”
“Do you remember how much blood Fan used and the proportions of the blood?
Do you remember how long the waiting time was?” “I thought he was just bluffing, so I didn’t take note…”
“Idiot. ”
“Hey, Ye Hao, say what you want to say but don’t insult people!”
At that moment, Chen Fan, who was on the back of the Golden Gyrfalcon, waved his hand and said, “Haozi, drag the corpses of the Magic Tyrannosaurus and the Blood Petal Flower Demon to the side, hide them somewhere, and make a mark.”
“We’ll drag them back when we return.”
“Alright!” Ye Hao immediately got to work, dragging the corpses of the Magic Tyrannosaurus and the Blood Petal Flower Demon to a place with jagged rocks and hiding them.
After completing this task, he quickly ran a few steps and, with a loud bang, jumped onto the back of the Golden Gyrfalcon.
Shen Daodao wanted to speak, but suddenly noticed that the wings of the Golden Gyrfalcon were flapping and it had taken off into the sky! “Hey? I haven’t gotten on yet, why did the big bird start to fly! Hey hey!”
Shen Daodao chased after it but ended up being half a beat late.
Golden Gyrfalcon had already taken to the sky.
“Damn it!”
Frustrated, Shen Daodao could only thicken his face and climb onto the back of the King Death Spider.
In the sky, Chen Fan looked back at the King Death Spider below and turned to
Shen Hongxiu, “Why is the King Death Spider so severely injured?”
“As far as I know, the Black Fire Poison in Fire Plume Mountain shouldn’t be too severe unless there’s a major outbreak, and ordinary people or Guardian Beasts who don’t stay in those caves too long shouldn’t get poisoned too deeply.”
“Yet the body of the King Death Spider is oozing dark qi. It looks like it had stayed in the area with Black Fire Poison for ten days or even half a month?”
“Besides, the Blood Petal Flower King is indeed powerful, but it is only level 13 and only one level higher than the Death Spider.” Chu Xuan and Ye Hao both looked at Shen Hongxiu.
Shen Hongxiu obviously hid something.
Levels 6 to 10 are Elite, and levels 11 to 15 are the Boss tier.
As the level of Guardian Beasts increases, the gap between levels becomes larger and larger.
A level 13 Blood Petal Flower King completely suppressing a level 12 King Death Spider is normal.
Even three or four level 12 King Death Spiders working together might not be able to defeat a level 13 Blood Petal Flower King.
Yet it would be improbable for a level 13 Blood Petal Flower King to kill a level 12 King Death Spider in one blow.
Seeing Chen Fan and the others looking at her, Shen Hongxiu’s smile faded, and she spoke seriously, “Indeed, something did happen…”
At this point, her voice got quieter.
“My plan was to incite the Skyfire Ants and the Blood Petal Flower Demon to fight fiercely, then secretly help the Skyfire Ants restrain the Blood Petal
Flower Demon…”
Shen Hongxiu whispered, “On one hand, I wanted to rid ourselves of these annoying creatures; ”
“On the other hand, I wanted to see if I could lure out the Blood Petal Flower
King;”
“After all, this is the territory of the Blood Petal Flower Demons.”
“The plan initially went very smoothly…”
“Under my guidance, two level 10 Skyfire Ants led the Skyfire Ant Army and cornered the Blood Petal Flower Demon Army to the foot of Fire Plume Mountain.”
“However, the Blood Petal Flower King actually appeared, and as soon as it appeared, it killed the two level 10 Skyfire Ants.”
“I immediately realized something was wrong! ”
“At that time, the strikes of the Blood Petal Flower King were like lightning, swift and fierce, directly cutting the bodies of the two level 10 Skyfire Ants in half and creating two deep gorges on the ground!”
“Our Shen Family also has many high-level Guardian Beasts, and I have dealt with many level 12 Guardian Beasts.”
“Even the King Death Spider I brought with me is level 12.”
“But the level 12 Guardian Beasts I’ve seen, including the King Death Spider, don’t have such terrifying power in their strikes!”
“Besides, after the appearance of the Blood Petal Flower King, all the Blood Petal Flower Demons surrounded us!”
Shen Hongxiu said with lingering fear, “As soon as I discovered something was amiss, I immediately urged Shen Daodao to run.”
“Unexpectedly, just as Shen Daodao was about to recall his Guardian Beast back to the Beastmaster’s Space, in the moment I threw him out…”
“A burst of dark qi erupted from the nearby cavern!”
“The endless Black Fire Poison actually erupted!”
“Seeing the dire situation, the King Death Spider shook its body fiercely, sending me flying.”
“However, it was engulfed by the Black Fire Poison in an instant…”
Shen Hongxiu sighed and continued, “Originally, even if it was poisoned, we should have had no problem escaping.”
“But the Blood Petal Flower King is just too terrifying!”
“Despite its colossal size, its speed was like a whirlwind, clearing a path through the Skyfire Ant Army and reaching the King Death Spider in less than four seconds!”
“Before the poisoned King Death Spider could react, it was struck by a whip and almost had its body shattered!”
“At that moment, I realized that the Blood Petal Flower King had probably broken through to level 13!”
“Seeing the situation turning bad, I threw a piece of Hakk Tree Frog meat towards the Skyfire Ant Army.”
“The Blood Petal Flower King, lured by the scent of the Hakk Tree Frog, abandoned the King Death Spider and chased after the meat, allowing us to narrowly escape.”
Suddenly, Chu Xuan said gravely, “The eruption of Black Fire Poison on Fire Plume Mountain usually spreads like a dense fog, gradually enveloping the entire mountain.”
“And the eruption happens annually, always during the period of July and August.”
“I’ve never seen a record of Black Fire Poison suddenly erupting from a single cave.”
Ye Hao also sneered, “Even if it really erupted from a cave, what are the odds it would happen to hit the King Death Spider directly?”
Shen Hongxiu glared at Ye Hao and looked at Chen Fan, pursing her lips and saying, “Xiaofan, do you not believe me either?”
It seemed like we were really familiar with each other.
This is only the second time we’ve met, and we haven’t even spoken many words together… Well, you did say quite a bit just now.
Chen Fan rolled his eyes and said, “It’s not about whether I believe you or not. I just think the whole thing is weird… There must be something wrong when things are abnormal!”
“Did you see any strange people on your way to the Secret Realm or in the Secret Realm itself?”
“Did you notice any other people at Fire Plume Mountain?”
