They looked in that direction.
That was a valley.
The rocks on both sides of the valley were steep and dark. It seemed that the valley had absorbed all the light from the outside.
Gusts of wind came out from the valley, sounding like the cries of ghosts. It was chilling.
Even though they were still far away from the valley, they could smell the stinky wind coming out from the vents in the valley. It smelled like rotting corpses or animal feces. The smell was strong in that hot environment.
Su Ping's eyes glowed. He recalled everything he knew about that place.
In this valley, he had fought, slaughtered, and even died!
Nie Chengkong took a deep breath and said, "I will leave the investigation to you. Report to me if anything goes wrong!"
Zhou Jing and Guo Yuelin nodded. They were fully focused, not daring to relax for even a second.
Master Mo nodded but said nothing.
"Roar!"
The Dark Dragon Hound became restless all of a sudden. It growled and its eyes glowed with excitement and bloodlust.
If it weren't for the fact that Su Ping was suppressing it with his mind, the Dark Dragon Hound would have rushed into the valley without caring about anything else.
Nie Chengkong and the others were surprised by the Dark Dragon Hound's excitement. They turned to Su Ping. Nie Chengkong asked in a hurry, "Brother SU, did you find anything?"
Old Mo stared at Su Ping in astonishment.
Su Ping pulled himself back from his memories. He looked at the expectant looks in everyone's eyes. After some thought, he said, "If my Dark Dragon Hound is right, there should be a group of Hell Spiders in the valley. Be careful."
Clearly, the Dark Dragon Hound had not sensed that. But since they didn't know the Dark Dragon Hound's abilities, no one could tell if he was telling the truth.
"Hell Spiders?" Nie Chengkong frowned. "What kind of beast is that? I have never heard of it."
The others were in deep thought as well.
Only then did Su Ping remember that the Black Flame Hell Spider was an ancient monster that had gone extinct during the Ninth Sun's era. Naturally, it was not recorded in the Federation's illustrated handbook, which had been updated many times.
"It's an extremely ancient Demon Beast. Some Demon Beast archeologists should have heard of it. It's normal that you don't know about it." Su Ping casually said.
Everyone suddenly understood and looked at Su Ping in surprise. How did Su Ping know about such an ancient and extinct demonic beast? Was he so knowledgeable at such a young age?
Nie Chengkong didn't care about Su Ping's knowledge. He only cared about the result. "Brother Su, what rank is that beast?"
"High seventh rank."
Su Ping said, "With the number of spiders here, the combat strength they can display is completely comparable to the Ninth Stage. However, this is not too difficult for us. The only thing we need to pay attention to is not to be bitten and poisoned by these things.
These things are extinct. The anti-venom vaccines you have injected into your pets might not work. Once you are poisoned, you will have to recuperate and your lives will be in danger. "Everyone was surprised.
They didn't know that the spiders were poisonous beasts.
"How about this? I'll let my Great Earthen Dragon protect everyone. Then, Captain Nie and Elder Hiroshi, the two of you will send the Demonic Priest Beasts and Scythe Guardians to kill them. The rest of us will assist you, just like before."
Nie Chengkong thought about it and agreed. He turned to Master Mo.
One look at Nie Chengkong's expression told Master Mo that it was pointless for him to say no. "Sure." With that said, Master Mo darted a look at Su Ping. He wanted to suggest that Su Ping's Dark Dragon Hound go as well. However, on second thought, Su Ping had just said that it was the Dark Dragon Hound that contributed to the information. If Master Mo were to ask the Dark Dragon Hound to help, the others might not agree with him. Not only would his suggestion fail, but he would also offend others. That would be a loss.
Deep down, Master Mo didn't like Su Ping. That being said, at the very least, they hadn't fallen out with each other.
Since Master Mo had agreed, Nie Chengkong breathed in relief. "Then, get ready. Let's go!"
Chen immediately ordered the Earthen Dragon to cast Earth Protection on everyone. This was an advanced defensive skill.
The soil under everyone's feet rose up quickly. The hard sand in the depths of the soil was strengthened by the Earthen Dragon's astral powers. The sand wrapped around everyone's feet and covered every inch of their bodies, forming a suit of armor made of earth!
The armor covered everyone's skin, including their foreheads and necks. Only the eyes and ears could be exposed. There were no blind spots anywhere else.
With the help of the Earthen Shield, Nie Chengkong told his Fallen Priest to lead the way. Master Mo's Death Scythe followed closely behind. The others followed the Earthen Dragon. While exploring the valley, they went in with caution.
The valley was dark and gloomy. Spider webs were entangled on the walls. There were some remains of beasts on the ground.
Looking at the dark spider webs on the walls, everyone was convinced by Su Ping's words. There were indeed spiders there.
"Be careful," Nie Chengkong said. He was even more cautious.
They were surrounded by spider webs but the Hell Spiders that Su Ping mentioned were nowhere to be seen.
Su Ping knew that the Hell Spiders would hide in the cracks of the rocks. They were good at camouflage. Since the enemies were in the dark while they were out in the open, they would have to slow down.
Su Ping didn't want to waste any more time. He told the Dark Dragon Hound to dash out from the team.
Roar!
The Dark Dragon Hound bellowed all of a sudden. It sounded like a dragon's roar, but unlike the usual ones, the dragon's roar was majestic and imposing.
The Earthen Giant that was standing with the others trembled in fear. Out of instinct, it shrank its head and wings and closed its eyes. The Earthen Giant shuddered as if it were facing a dragon. But soon, the Earthen Giant could no longer feel the presence of a dragon.
When it opened its dragon eyes in confusion, it saw that the one who had let out the dragon's roar was the black dog that had jumped out from beside its feet.
The Earthen Giant glared at the Earthen Giant in shock and anger.
At the same time, the Dark Dragon Hound bellowed again. The intimidating sound made the Earthen Giant's heart skip a beat. If it weren't for the fact that it was the Dark Dragon Hound that had bellowed, the Earthen Giant would have been frightened again.
"Brother Su, what …" Nie Chengkong was surprised to see the Dark Dragon Hound jumping out. He turned to Su Ping. There was no doubt that the pet's actions were condoned by its master.
"Get ready to fight. Let's finish this quickly," Su Ping said.
At the same time, cracking sounds came from the walls of the valley. The walls fell off. Many black spiders that were four to five meters long crawled out. Behind the silk sacs of those spiders was a strange mouth with sharp teeth. Their tongues could be elongated like poisonous snakes and could reach out for more than a dozen meters. At the tip of the tongue was a "cherry mouth" that was highly toxic.
The sudden appearance of so many Hell Black Spiders made everyone's blood freeze. The brawny man named Chen was frightened. He told the Earthen Giant Dragon to build up a shield.
The Earthen Giant Dragon was still angry with the Dark Dragon Hound. Hearing its master's order, the Earthen Giant Dragon had to calm down. It used its dragon strength to pull up many earthen walls from the ground to shield Su Ping and the others.
"Kill them!"
Nie Chengkong was relieved. He sent a message to the Fallen Priest at once.
Now that he knew where the Hell Black Spiders were, he was relieved. He didn't have to be on guard like before in case of sneak attacks.
"Oh, no. I forgot to put your Dark Dragon Hound …"
The brawny man surnamed Chen was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when he suddenly thought of something and his expression changed. But before he could finish speaking, he stopped in shock. Why did these words sound so familiar?
He turned to Su Ping. He wanted to cry but failed to shed a tear. He swore that he didn't mean to do that.
Nie Chengkong and the others noticed that the Dark Dragon Hound was still roaring to attract the Hell Spiders that were hiding in the dark.
However, while the Dark Dragon Hound was luring the Hell Black Spiders, it was left outside.
For a moment, everyone was looking at the brawny man named Chen in a strange way.
The first time could be forgotten, and the second time could also be forgotten?
