Chapter 593: Chapter 354 Earth Origin Elixir_3

If it were just a jug or half a jug, the value wouldn’t be significant, but the sight in front of him, a pool of Earth Spring about a foot in diameter and likely not shallow in depth, was considerably valuable.

However, despite the resource being right in front of him, Chen Mu furrowed his brows in response.

No other reason.

Like the Insect Demon king he had previously slain, this one was slightly more in quantity, making it inconvenient to carry.

But after a moment’s thought, Chen Mu still shook his head helplessly. Having encountered it, it was impossible to ignore, so he stepped forward toward the pool of Earth Origin Elixir.

It was almost as he gradually approached, about to reach within thirty feet, that suddenly a dim glow flashed through the gloomy valley bottom, and a sharp attack burst forth from Chen Mu’s left side towards him!

Although the attack came abruptly and was extremely fast, Chen Mu had anticipated it and could even see its entire form clearly.

What attacked him was only about a foot long, a small snake-like creature, but it had four wings on its back and moved incredibly fast, almost reaching his face in the blink of an eye.

Though small in size, this burst of speed, along with the solidifying and oppressive demonic power, was even more ferocious than the Insect Demon Chen Mu had encountered before. After all, a creature that could occupy such a pool of Earth Origin Elixir could not be weak. Moreover, this demon was also recorded in the Demon Record, allowing Chen Mu to recognize its name and clan.

Cry Snake!

Its having four wings indicated it had reached the Eighth Rank!

An Eighth Rank Cry Snake, utilizing the advantage of the Earthly Abyss for a surprise attack, could harm even a top Grandmaster unprepared, potentially leading to a catastrophe. However, the gap was too vast for Chen Mu.

Even as the Cry Snake attacked at lightning speed, Chen Mu still managed to raise his right hand before it could reach him and grasped its body, holding it tightly in his palm.

“Hiss…”

The Cry Snake, captured by Chen Mu, did not struggle immediately but instead flicked its tongue and then opened its mouth to emit not venom but a sound like a dull bell toll!

The sound exploded at an extremely close range to Chen Mu, not dispersing at all, and impacted directly on him!

But.

This sound, powerful enough to burst the eardrums and shatter the bodies of other Grandmasters, merely caused the hairs on Chen Mu’s body to stand slightly, his demeanor remaining utterly calm throughout.

The Cry Snake’s strike having no effect, its snake eyes finally showed a human-like fear, and it immediately tried to retreat. However, it was already grasped by Chen Mu, making escape obviously impossible.

Crack!

Chen Mu slightly exerted force in his fingers and directly twisted off the Cry Snake’s head.

The Cry Snake struggled frantically in his grip, its surging demonic power bursting forth in waves, but it was forcibly suppressed by the Yuan Gang True Essence gathered in Chen Mu’s hand, unable to break free. After several moments of intense conflict, the Cry Snake’s demonic power completely dispersed, its severed head sagging, its vitality gradually fading.

Chen Mu looked at the body of the Cry Snake in his hand, perceiving momentarily with a calm gaze to ensure it was indeed lifeless, and then he stored its body, placing it in his bag, before walking to the pool of Earth Origin Elixir.

Close up.

He could sense the vibrant vitality contained in the pool of Spiritual Liquid, which truly seemed like the essence of the earth had been extracted, making ‘Earth Origin Elixir’ an apt name. This substance existed only in the Earthly Abyss, nowhere to be found above ground.

This whole pool of Earth Origin Elixir, connected to the nearby Earth’s Veins, nourished by accumulated vein power. Standing by its side, Chen Mu began to carefully sense downwards along the veins at his feet.

A rough estimate.

The depth was about three feet.@@novelbin@@

Three feet deep, one foot wide, indeed, the amount was not small, and taking it would be somewhat troublesome.

After a brief consideration, Chen Mu still shook his head slightly, stretched out his hand downwards, and a burst of Yuan Gang True Essence erupted, causing the entire pool of Earth Origin Elixir to shake violently, its viscous surface rippling.

The Earth’s Veins’ power connected to the Spiritual Liquid trembled violently, clashing with Chen Mu’s Yuan Gang True Essence. The Earth Pulse’s Power from within the Earthly Abyss was far more violent than other places, making it extremely difficult for even a Grandmaster in the Blood Exchange Realm to move underground here, let alone forcibly enter a deeper layer of the Earthly Abyss.

However, Chen Mu merely needed to sever the pool of Earth Origin Elixir’s connection with the Earth’s Veins, which was not so difficult.

Boom!!

Following a thunderous noise, the connected power of the veins finally disintegrated, and the whole pool of Spiritual Liquid was forcibly pulled up, slowly floating into mid-air.

Chen Mu’s eyes flickered slightly, he stepped on the ground, shattering countless mud and stones, and then pointed his fingers, these mud stones rapidly converged to a point, enveloping the pool of Spiritual Liquid in the middle, then rapidly solidifying and transforming.

In just a moment.

The mud stones had turned into a solid mass of jade stone, sealing the pool of Spiritual Liquid within, forming a stone about three feet long and one foot wide, which then landed in Chen Mu’s hand.

Chen Mu weighed it slightly, the Earth Origin Elixir was inherently heavy; while it would be somewhat manageable on the surface, this much quantity underground indeed posed some trouble. Yet considering its value, it was indeed worth the effort to carry.

“Let’s take another look at that entrance.”

With the stone containing a pool of Earth Origin Elixir on his back, Chen Mu confirmed his direction once more.

He wasn’t far from the cave entrance on the map, leading to the Third Layer, only about a hundred miles away. He planed to check if the entrance had been sealed. If it had, he would take this Earth Origin Elixir back to the surface first and find a place to store it. If it had not been sealed, then he would check for any other situations.

Mind made up.

Chen Mu, carrying the stone, quickly stepped forward and soon disappeared into the shadows of the Earthly Abyss.
