Chapter 1771: Chapter 11 Immortal Cave_2

Those spirit plants leveled by the lava quickly revive in the scorching flow, displaying immense vitality. They even absorb the dense fiery aura within the lava, growing even more exuberantly, vibrant and green.

“These spirit plants are quite interesting, truly a case of the land nourishing its life forms.”

Wang Ba, unsure if Ji Ying and the others had collected these spirit plants, decided to gather a few unseen plants himself.

However, his actions drew the attention of many living creatures.

A lion-tiger-like demonic beast, with eyes glowing red and fangs like swords, charged arrogantly at him.

It crashed headlong into Wang Ba’s protective barrier.

With a wail, it tucked its tail between its legs and fled in disgrace without a backward glance.

Wang Ba shook his head slightly, wondering where a Class III demonic beast found such courage.

Had he not restrained his mana, that collision would have shattered it into pieces.

He was too unmotivated to catch these demonic beasts individually; his Divine Void Eye flickered lightly, revealing the bloodlines of the demonic beasts in his gaze.

“Hmm… These demonic beasts’ bloodlines aren’t too bad.”

Wang Ba glanced unexpectedly at the still-confused demonic beasts around him.

The demonic beasts here and inside the Little Cang World had some similar traits among spirit beasts.

Most carried familiar shadows, but some were unique native species Wang Ba had never seen inside the Little Cang World.

What caught Wang Ba’s attention most was a peculiar spirit beast swimming in the lava.

At first glance, it looked like a golden lotus flower, drifting down with the volcanic eruption from the crater.

When encountering a demonic beast corpse along the way, it stopped, stood on two legs, and quickly burrowed into the corpse.

Appearing more like a plant than a spirit beast.

But with Wang Ba’s discerning eye, he clearly saw the golden lotus full of spiritual wisdom, lively and vigorous, capable of moving and dancing—a standard spirit beast.

“Interesting.”

Wang Ba observed quietly and saw ‘Golden Lotus’ inserting its two legs into the demonic beast corpse before its golden petals shivered violently, as though trembling.

The demonic beast’s corpse below drained quickly, turning into skeletal remains in a short time.

From the center of the ‘Golden Lotus’, a small golden seed emerged.

‘Golden Lotus’ didn’t stop and returned to the nearby lava, soon merging the fiery aura from the lava within its petals. The lava solidified quickly, making the small seed grow rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, it became a large, smooth and shiny lotus seed.

As the large seed formed, a jagged gap suddenly opened at the ‘Golden Lotus’ lotus pod—a mouth that closed around the seed!

But it caught nothing.

‘Golden Lotus’ raised its lotus pod, dazed—it was its head—a gap in the pod opened again, revealing its eyes, filled with confusion.

Before it, Wang Ba held the golden seed curiously.

The seed was quite large, resembling an egg, with a faint cooling sensation on it.

What surprised him slightly was that he felt a vague sense of joy in his Primordial Spirit!

“Is this thing beneficial to the Primordial Spirit?”

Wang Ba, with a look of astonishment, lightly rubbed the seed, feeling the natural rise of slight longing from his Primordial Spirit.

He saw clearly that the ‘Golden Lotus’ spirit beast absorbed the demonic beast’s corpse and the fiery aura of the underground lava, forming the complete seed.

This process reminded him of the Spirit Chicken laying eggs.

The difference being that the seed seemed to be food for the ‘Golden Lotus’ spirit beast itself.

Feeling the tense gaze from the gap on the ‘Golden Lotus’ lotus pod, Wang Ba pondered for a moment, raised his hand, and summoned the lion-tiger demonic beast from a distance, making it fall limply before the ‘Golden Lotus’, lifeless.

‘Golden Lotus’ trembled all over!

Its gap was filled with terror!

Wang Ba casually tossed the beast corpse before the ‘Golden Lotus’ and pointed to it, smiling seemingly kindly, his voice gentle:

“Go ahead, try again.”

‘Golden Lotus’ spirit beast gazed in silence at Wang Ba, a brief pause followed—

It extended its two slender feet like roots without hesitation, like a girl lifting her skirt on tiptoes, and dashed into the not-yet-solidified lava!

Watching the frantic escape of the ‘Golden Lotus’ spirit beast, Wang Ba shook his head slightly in resignation.

“Its spiritual wisdom doesn’t seem high.”

“But it’s effective on the Primordial Spirit…”

Wang Ba’s eyes showed intrigue.

The ‘Golden Lotus’ spirit beast was only Class III, yet the seed it produced made even a Class V cultivator like him feel a twinge of desire—clearly extraordinary.

After all, treasures effective on the Primordial Spirit are rare even inside the Little Cang World.

Such a pleasant surprise wouldn’t escape his watchful eyes.

Spiritual sense spread out, furrowing his brows slightly.

Within the reach of his spiritual sense, he didn’t see a second ‘Golden Lotus’ spirit beast.

Observing the lone ‘Golden Lotus’ spirit beast ascending the ‘lava’, Wang Ba watched it leap onto the erupting volcano crater and then plunge down.

After a moment of contemplation, he didn’t act immediately, instead his body transformed into a shadow, following into the volcano.
