Chapter 77 Between the Two Islands
"boom-"
All three fire dragon talismans burst into flames, spewing out raging fire. The spider silk instantly turned to ashes, allowing the two to see the situation before them clearly.
Startled...
The dark passageway was crawling with countless spider webs, and a large, emerald-green spider, the size of an alpaca, was staring down at them from above…
"A mid-grade, first-tier water spirit spider..."
Lin Kaihua frowned slightly, his slender, fair face showing a delicate expression. He took out two more fire talismans from his talisman pouch and transmitted his voice to Lin Kaiqian, saying, "Just do it the way we do in our daily training..."
Just then, the Water Spirit Spider suddenly launched an attack!
It first sprayed a mouthful of emerald green spider silk at Lin Kaihua, then simultaneously forked its forelegs and leaped from the tunnel ceiling to Lin Kaiqian in a few steps, its sharp forelegs slashing down like knives…
"Clang—"
With a few flicks in mid-air, the golden spear deflected all the demonic spider's leg blades. Then, with a twist of his waist, he pointed the spear tip at the fire dragon talisman that Lin Kaihua had tossed into the air.
The fire dragon talisman was activated in less than a breath, transmitted through the spear tip…
"boom-"
Caught off guard, the demonic spider was burned by the oncoming fire dragon.
Instead of retreating, Lin Kaiqian advanced, slapping his hand, and the golden spear transformed into a blur, darting into the demon spider's abdomen.
The spear tip is about to strike a vital point.
At the critical moment, the spider's legs on its left and right sides suddenly crossed, barely managing to trap the Golden Spear.
The spider's abdomen writhed, seemingly gathering more spider silk. At this moment, Lin Kaiqian was only about two meters away from it...
"Buzz—"
The thick earth talisman prepared before entering the cave quietly activated, perfectly blocking the spider silk spray...
At this moment, Lin Kaihua, who had freed himself from the green spider silk, had already thrown seven or eight talismans into the air.
"withdraw!"
Lin Kaihua's cold voice suddenly rang out, and she quickly stepped back.
Lin Kaiqian's lips curled into a smile. He grabbed the end of the Golden Spear with his left hand and pulled it back sharply, while his right hand channeled a surge of spiritual energy and stirred it in place...
A wisp of fire, burning and coiling with extraordinary force, surged towards the spider's legs.
Trembling, they separated and intertwined...
Having caught the Golden Spear, Lin Kaiqian lightly touched the ground with his toes and retreated rapidly, his hands constantly moving, the spear shadows in the air never ceasing, triggering all the talismans in just a few breaths!
"Boom—Boom—"
The spiritual power unleashed by the talisman instantly filled the entire cave passage, and the two of them flashed out of the hole one after the other...
Lin Tieshan stood guard at the cave entrance with a solemn expression. Seeing that the two were slightly disheveled but otherwise safe, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly bowed and said, "Two immortal masters..."
Before Lin Kaihua could reply, he activated the explosive talisman as soon as Lin Kaiqian stepped out of the cave.
With a loud "boom," the entrance to the cave was blocked...
"You must not approach."
Lin Kaihua calmly gave the order to Lin Tieshan, then glanced at Lin Kaiqian, and the two quickly left.
After leaving the mine, Lin Kaihua gave orders to the other managers and then hurriedly led Lin Kaiqian away from the place.
Having exited the spiritual vein and arrived at the spirit field array of the Fallen Feather Flower, Lin Kaihua slowed her pace and took out a long-distance communication talisman…
"Sister Hua, what are you going to do?"
Lin Kaiqian put away his magical artifact and was puzzled when he saw Lin Kaihua take out a long-distance communication talisman.
"Tell me, what kind of demonic spider was that just now?"
Lin Kaihua asked in a serious tone, which suddenly reminded Lin Kaiqian of his mother, Madam Shen…
"A Water Spirit Spider!"
Lin Kaiqian's mind raced, and he answered without hesitation.
"What are the habits of this Water Spirit Spider?"
Lin Kaihua blinked her long eyelashes and activated the communication talisman.
"The Water Spirit Spider is inherently irritable... its silk is poisonous... it is amphibious... but it cannot remain in a single environment for many years..."
Lin Kaiqian explained in great detail, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"Sis, you mean..."
Seeing that he finally understood, Lin Kaihua smiled. Although she was only a teenager, her smile was bright and radiant.
"Sis, you should smile more often. You look prettier when you smile."
Lin Kaiqian offered a rare, serious suggestion.
"You're such a smart aleck..."
Lin Kaihua feigned anger.
Several hours later, Ancestor Lin Canglan arrived in a hurry with Elder Lin Shengyuan, Elder Lin Shengze, and Lin Yunyi, who was at the eighth level of Qi Refining.
Since Lin Yunyi understood the new mechanism at the clan affairs meeting seven or eight years ago, he has been full of energy. He not only frequently participates in clan tasks, but also actively engages in various suggestions and proposals.
He consistently ranks high on the family resource exchange leaderboard. Now only in his forties, he has already reached the late stage of Qi Refining and is one of the family's promising Foundation Establishment talents.
"Hua'er, Qian'er."
"Quickly report to the Ancestor what kind of demonic spider it is and what the situation is!"
Upon meeting, Lin Shengyuan urged everyone to hurry up with a smile.
Lin Kaiqian glanced at Lin Kaihua, who nodded, and then Lin Kaiqian revealed their guesses together.
It turns out that years ago, when they were carrying out the Fallen Feather Flower mission, Lin Kaishu, Kaihua, and Kaiqian had already roughly surveyed this iron ore vein, but they didn't find anything special at the time.
The appearance of the Water Spirit Spider alone reveals a possible situation.
"A water vein connects to the bottom of the ore mountain..."
"How do you explain that?"
Even though Lin Shengyuan was over a hundred years old, this was the first time he had ever heard this statement.
Judging from the expressions of the others, it was clear that apart from the patriarch, no one else knew the truth.
Lin Kaiqian had a slight look of smugness on his face.
"This is recorded in the 'Notes on Earth Veins' compiled by the clan chief... The main vein of the earth stretches out in all directions, and along the main trunk, branch veins, hidden veins, and spiritual veins will inevitably emerge and accompany each other..."
"The Water Spirit Spider lives in water veins year-round, but crawls onto land during its egg-laying season... It has an extreme fondness for mineral vein environments..."
Hearing Lin Kaiqian speak eloquently, the patriarch Lin Canglan stroked his short beard and nodded.
"The younger generation is truly formidable!"
Therefore, the two blind snakes that Lin Shenghong and Xiao Liu encountered back then did not appear out of thin air.
Lin Canglan's mind quickly recalled memories from twenty years ago...
"So, there's another water vein beneath Fallen Feather Island..."
Lin Canglan pondered for a moment, then nodded and said:
"You two handled this matter extremely well. We'll reward you both after the truth comes out!"
He turned slightly and said to Lin Shengze beside him, "Shengze, you and Yunyi go to that mine and deal with that demonic spider."
"Shengyuan, come with me to explore the bottom of the sea..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Lin Shengze's eyes light up, looking eager to try.
"Your cultivation level is insufficient; you cannot go into the sea."
Lin Canglan chuckled, as if he could see through Lin Kaiqian's thoughts.
"Hehe, what if Xiao Qian had a water-repelling pearl, Ancestor?"
Lin Kaiqian chuckled and took out a precious pearl from his neck.
"Is it a water-repelling bead?"
This water-repelling bead was a treasure given to Lin Kaiqian by Lin Shenghong when Lin Kaiqian was found to have a mid-grade spiritual root.
In the blink of an eye, everything has changed.
"Very well, let this old man see the skills of one of the Three Heroes of Fallen Feather."
Lin Canglan chuckled and joked.
These words caused Lin Kaihua and Lin Kaiqian to blush deeply...
