Chapter 880: I Climbed Too Fast
“Yes, what Little Jiu said makes sense. This should be the East Valley. I just don’t know why the demonic beasts and cultivators suddenly disappeared. They are likely trapped somewhere.” Di Beiming felt that what Yun Chujiu said made sense.
“Little Sister Jiu, what should we do next? Should we just try looking for their whereabouts like without a plan first?”
“There doesn’t seem to be any other good solutions. We can only search in one direction.” Yun Chujiu sighed and said.
Yun Chujiu had considered releasing the demon beasts in her storage ring and letting them help look around on their own. However, this place was different from the West Valley. They were not familiar with the layout of the valley here. Moreover, although they were at the top of the food chain in the West Valley, however, they were now at the bottom of the food chain in the East Valley. If they were not careful, they might end up eaten by high-level demonic beasts. They could not possibly save them and hurt them at the same time.
“It’s really strange. You said that the cultivators gathered to discuss ideas on how to get out. Then, they might have been wiped out by a whole nest of beasts. However, the demon beasts have always been scattered and uncoordinated. What method did the people of the G.o.dly Devil Hall use to capture or trap them?” Yun Chujiu was puzzled.
Di Beiming thought for a moment and said, “Perhaps they have something that can attract demon beasts. We neglected this problem at Longping Mountain. Almost all the demon beasts there were captured by the formation. I guess the G.o.dly Devil Hall used special methods back then too.”
Although Xue Wuji wanted to disagree with Di Beiming, he had to admit that Di Beiming’s a.n.a.lysis was reasonable. No matter how high your spiritual power was, it was impossible to find out where all the demon beasts were hiding. There had to be something that attracted the demon beasts to make them want to voluntarily walk into the trap.
Yun Chujiu inexplicably thought of the Strange Gra.s.s in her Dantian. If she used it, would she be able to create a similar effect? There wouldn’t be any relatives of the Strange Gra.s.s in the G.o.dly Devil Hall, right?!
While thinking about the strange gra.s.s, she suddenly thought of an idea. They could do the opposite and let the strange gra.s.s summon the demon beasts. Even if none of the demon beasts came, they would still feel restless after they sensed the summoning. It was also possible that some managed to avoid the trap. Perhaps they might be able to find some clues from those left behind. After all, how could so many demon beasts disappear without leaving any traces?!
Yun Chujiu thought of that and used her divine sense to ask the Strange Gra.s.s, “Strange Gra.s.s, do your best to lure some demon beasts here! If you do well, you will be rewarded!”
Ever since the Strange Gra.s.s saw Di Beiming’s seal the last time, he was extremely obedient. When he heard Yun Chujiu’s instructions, he immediately started to try summoning demon beasts with all his might.
Two hours had pa.s.sed, but there was still no reaction.
Yun Chujiu frowned. Could it be that there every single one of the beasts was trapped? The place where the demonic beasts were trapped was either very far away or the trap restricted their freedom. There was simply no way to do anything.
Just as Yun Chujiu was deep in thought, a level 10 Golden Tortoise came stumbling over from afar. Yun Chujiu suddenly understood how it had escaped the trap.
The Golden Tortoises move very slowly, relying entirely on its st.u.r.dy sh.e.l.l to defend itself. It would not eat for eight to ten years after having a meal. The tortoises must have crawled too slowly back then and were injured. Before it could reach its destination, the trap was sprung.
However, this Golden Tortoise felt that it was about to fly up. It had never climbed so fast in its life. Oh my G.o.d, it had no idea it could also climb so fast. It was almost in awe of itself, it was probably the fastest in the Golden Tortoise species!
