Chu Chen lightly shook his head, "There's no point in being anxious about this. The final zither string needs to be made from the Ancient Dragon Scaled Spider's silk. That beast hibernates during the day and only comes out to hunt at dusk."
As he spoke, he yawned, "Right now, I can't find it even if I want to. I also have nothing to do, so I'm taking this opportunity to rest. Don't be anxious, don't be anxious."
The little hamster's uneasiness did not decrease.
"Chu Chen, it's not that I'm rushing you, but Shi Yuyan said that she wants to teach the zither to those fated with her. Furthermore, she lured everyone to this Demonic Sound Mountain for you to forge your natal zither. I'm afraid it's not that simple …"
"If it's that simple, then she wouldn't be a demoness."
Chu Chen rubbed his nose. He already knew that Shi Yuyan was not a warm-hearted person who would casually teach people the zither.
Indeed, it was not her style.
When he thought about how she did not hesitate to kill the group of young elites following her and devour their essence to raise her cultivation, he knew that she was definitely setting up a trap.
However, Chu Chen was actually a little curious about her trap?
He wanted to see what Shi Yuyan, who had turned into a great teacher, was guiding a group of cultivators.
"You better be on guard." The little hamster's eyes flickered.
"It's fine. Even if she has ulterior motives, so what? I'm just playing with her. However, we'll see how it goes. If you strongly suggest leaving, then after the zither is done, I'll listen to you."
Once Chu Chen's words were spoken, the little hamster was slightly relieved. It jumped into Chu Chen's embrace and fell into a deep sleep.
The wind blew past Lin Dong, and the green sea undulated. Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, the sun was setting in the west. It was already close to dusk.
Zhao Yue, Gu Sihuang, and Qi Xinrou had finished polishing all the components needed to forge the zither. Only the strings were left.
The few of them took inventory of the various components in their hands. Then, they left the empty space together and walked towards the underbrush ahead.
Very quickly, the three of them arrived at the edge of the dense underbrush.
"This is where the Ancient Dragon Scaled Spider is hiding, right?"
Zhao Yue looked at the zither creation jade slip that was floating in the air and emitting waves of light.
Qi Xinrou nodded slightly. "The Ancient Dragon-Scaled Spider likes dark and humid places. There is an entrance to the abyss in the depths of this grassland. It should be its hiding place."
The old cultivator, Gu Sihuang, had a worried look on his face. "The Ancient Dragon-Scaled Spider is extremely strong, and its spider silk is extremely tough. Everyone must be careful. If you get entangled by its silk, it will be very troublesome. It won't be easy to cut it off. "
He was old and experienced, so Zhao Yue trusted him very much.
As they talked, they slowly parted the bushes and walked in, as if they were walking through a minefield.
After walking for several hundred feet, there was still no movement. Zhao Yue could not help but heave a sigh of relief. She thought to herself, 'This bush is not that scary.'
"Be careful!"
Gu Sihuang's warning suddenly rang out loudly. Zhao Yue, who had the fastest reaction, instinctively flew into the sky, leaving the bush and flying into the blue sky.
She lowered her head and saw fine threads shooting out from the depths of the grass!
Shua! Shua! Shua!
The fine threads wrapped around Gu Sihuang, who had pushed Qi Xin Rou away, and tightly bound his body.
Swoosh!
In an instant, the silver threads shot into the sky like a waterfall. In the blink of an eye, they turned into a shining white waterfall and flowed backward, dragging Gu Sihuang into the bushes.
"Be careful!"
"Old Gu!"
…
The screams of the two girls pierced through the silent dusk. The silver threads were so fast that they could not react at all.
When they came back to their senses, Gu Sihuang had been dragged far away by the dense silver threads.
Where was the old cultivator being dragged to?
Zhao Yue and Qi Xin Rou were shocked. After exchanging glances, they instantly moved and chased after him.
The two of them were like two flying meteors!
At this moment, Zhao Yue's strength could be seen. She sprinted at full speed, and her entire body seemed to have turned into a purple electric light. Within a few breaths' time, she had traversed through layers of space and countless bushes, flying to Gu Sihuang's side, who was being dragged.
"I'll help you get out of here!"
Light flickered on Zhao Yue's fingertips, and a bright purple sword instantly appeared, reflecting the surrounding weeds into a purple color.
The next moment, the purple sword radiance burst out and slashed down from the sky. With a few sizzling sounds, the dense silver threads were cut off.
The threads were cut off, and the old cultivator, Gu Sihuang, was thrown out. However, part of the spider threads wrapped around his body were not cut off, so he could not move.
Hiss …
A strange roar sounded from the depths of the bushes. It seemed to be the roar of some kind of creature.
It seemed to be very far, but also very close?
The bushes began to dance wildly, but there was no wind at this time!
The bushes seemed to have become another world?
While Zhao Yue and Qi Xin Rou were helping Gu Sihuang in a hurry, they faintly saw a huge figure flashing in the distance.
The light of the setting sun shone on the huge figure, turning it into a little phosphorescent light, which made people dizzy.
"Idiots, you are really a group of brainless idiots!"
The bushes behind the three of them moved, and a red figure emerged from the bushes, revealing Feng Wu's slender figure.
That handsome face was now filled with resentment, and his gaze became even colder. "Do you know that the Ancient Dragon-Scaled Spider is cowardly by nature? Now that you've alerted it, it must have escaped underground."
"So what if it escapes? What's the big deal? Once it escapes, it will crawl out again."
Zhao Yue disapprovingly cut off a piece of spider silk with her sword.
Feng Wu was so angry that he laughed. "What do you know? If you want to wait for it to come out again, I'm afraid you will have to wait until this time tomorrow! "
"Ah?"
Qi Xin Rou was shocked, but after Zhao Yue's eyes flashed, she gritted her teeth. "So what? At most, we won't learn the zither. It's not a big deal! "
Qi Xin Rou cleaned the silk on the old cultivator and asked softly, "Is this silk not enough?"
The old cultivator, Gu Sihuang, shook his head. "No, this is not its natal silk …"
"Wait!"
Feng Wu suddenly made a shushing gesture. "This beast seems to have run in the wrong direction in a hurry. Now it is turning back to the underground entrance. We can chase it! Block it together and don't let it go back to its nest! "
A glimmer of hope was ignited in everyone's heart.
There were only a few hours left to build the zither. They could not wait until tomorrow evening.
The silk of the ancient dragon-scaled spider was a necessary material to refine the zither strings in Zither Mountain. If it ran away, wouldn't it mean that everyone would fail to build the zither?
"Where are you running to, evil beast!"
Young Miss Zhao Yue was swift and decisive. She took the lead and chased after it. She turned into a purple light and split the tall grass.
Feng Wu also stood up. With a flash of red, he overtook Zhao Yue and flew into the depths of the grass.
The old cultivator, who was half lying on the ground, pointed to the front and motioned for Qi Xin Rou to chase after it. "Don't worry about me. I can clean up the silk myself. You go first."
The white-clothed girl, Qi Xin Rou, who wanted to say something, finally nodded. "Be careful."
Then she also turned into a white light and chased into the depths of the grass.
Under the crazy pursuit, the three soon saw the huge figure of the ancient dragon-scaled spider. It was dozens of feet high.
As it moved, it was like a small mountain flying at high speed!
It galloped rapidly in the grass, stirring up billowing smoke and dust. Countless black soil and broken grass flew together. The ground was also plowed by its eight legs.
