Chapter 102: Painful Comprehension
"Wow, it's so big."
Huang Hua never expected that the third layer of this Shennongjia Secret Realm would be a huge underground cave about 100 zhang high and thousands of miles in radius.
Huang Hua took out the task jade slip again and put it on his forehead and looked at it, there was a map of the third layer of the secret realm in the jade slip, but this kind of map was different from the map used by modern people, it was completely a map of ancient times.
From the map, the third level of this secret realm is a circular basin surrounded by huge rocky mountains connected to the top wall, with a small lake in the middle of the basin, a small island in the middle of the lake, and the rest of the place is full of forests and swamps.
However, the golden-haired ape that Huang Hua wanted to kill in the mission did not indicate the location on the map, only suggesting that the ancient ape lived in a cave under a giant stone mountain at the edge of the basin.
After reading it, Huang Hua put away the jade slip, flew into the basin from the cave platform with a flying magic weapon, and followed the giant stone mountain in the direction of his right, and began to look for the cave that might contain the ancient ape.
After flying in mid-air for a while, Huang Hua found that the shrubs and weeds on the edge of the swamp were too dense, more than a person tall, so in order not to miss the cave, Huang Hua had to lower the altitude and start to fly slowly along the low altitude above the weeds.
After flying and searching for several hours, Huang Hua still found nothing, except for a few fifth-level ironclad lizards found on the way with his divine thoughts, Huang Hua did not find anything, but these ironclad lizards lived in groups, so Huang Hua did not think about killing them to collect materials, and he did not lack spirit stones.
However, Huang Hua is still a little anxious, if he continues to search slowly at this speed, he will definitely not be able to find the entire basin in a few days, and the most important thing is that even if he finds the cave, it is another matter whether the golden retriever is not in the cave.
"Alas, I'm completely looking for things for myself, it would have been nice if I had chosen to pay Lingshi directly to join the club," Huang Hua began to muttered to himself again.
continued to fly, and after about an hour, Huang Hua still found nothing.
"Could it be that the jade slip is mistaken? Or maybe the cave is long gone?"
Huang Hua was a little impatient, and his heart began to keep guessing, and in the end, he simply flew directly to a boulder on the edge of the swamp and stopped, he decided to rest and adjust for a while.
"Huh, what kind of flower is this, how can it be so huge?"
After breathing for a while, Huang Hua got up and prepared to continue flying to find it, but a strange plant not far from Huang Hua's rest and adjustment attracted Huang Hua's attention.
It was a giant flowering plant that resembled a tulip, with a large leaf on the left and right on a bare, stout stem, and an unopened flower bud on the top of its head.
The plant was tall enough to smell strange, not scented but not unpleasant.
Huang Hua carefully scanned this flower with his divine thoughts, and did not find any abnormalities, this flower had neither aura fluctuations nor medicinal properties, it seemed to be just an ordinary giant plant.
Huang Hua was very curious, so he flew to this flower with a magic weapon and circled around this flower several times.
Huang Hua stepped down from the magic weapon, wanting to take a closer look, but as soon as he stepped off the flying magic weapon, he felt a dangerous aura from this flower.
"Huh", the giant flower in front of him suddenly bloomed, and a long red whisker the thickness of an arm hit Huang Hua from the blood-red stamen.
"Smack......
The golden light on Huang Hua's body flashed, and a sword light stretched out from the golden light, splitting the long beard that hit him in two.
"Quack ......"
The giant flower let out a terrifying scream, and the open petals shrank into buds again, and the long whiskers that had been cut off by the sword were exposed outside the buds, and red juice continued to splatter.
"Damn, it's alive"
Huang Hua was taken aback, fortunately he had a sword and shield automatic body protector, otherwise he would have suffered because of carelessness.
The stems of the giant flowers began to sway from side to side, and the mud on the ground began to loosen.
"Bang ......"
The whole giant flower rose from the soil, hundreds of tiny roots merged and transformed into two spiky roots, and the flower buds opened again and turned into a giant mouth full of spikes and bit Huang Hua.
"Damn, what the hell is this?
Huang Hua was startled again, and immediately picked up the sword in his hand and swung it towards the biting bud.
"Boom ......", the giant mouth formed by the bud was split in half by the sword, and fell to the ground, and the flower stem that had lost the bud also collapsed, and countless red sap flowed out of the giant plant.
"What the hell is this?"
Huang Hua looked at the plant corpse on the ground a little strangely, this was obviously a creature with attack ability, but it did not have the slightest mana spirituality, and its body material was extremely weak, and could not be used as a cultivation material, Huang Hua really couldn't think of the value of this creature?
"Well, whatever, this creature doesn't pose any danger to me anyway, I'd better go ahead and find my golden retriever ape", Huang Hua put away his thoughts, and re-piloted the flying magic weapon to prepare to leave.
A sound of water came from a puddle in the swamp.
Huang Hua looked back, and a tree-man monster covered in algae suddenly rose from the puddle and ran towards the corpse of the plant.
"What kind of monster is this? What's going on in this secret realm?"
Huang Hua was surprised again, with his divine thoughts in the Dan period, he didn't even notice the existence of this tree man monster.
The Treant quickly ate the corpse of the plant, and after eating, the Treant got up and looked at Huang Hua again, and in the slightly dull gaze of the Treant, Huang Hua felt that he was being treated as food by it.
Just as Huang Hua was about to kill this tree monster as well, a demonic beast's spiritual aura came from the depths of the swamp.
Huang Hua immediately recognized that it was a fifth-level demon beast.
Huang Hua drove the magic weapon slightly to the edge of the basin, and at the same time transported the sword and shield to protect his whole body.
The treant monster seemed to sense something strange as well, and looked back into the depths of the swamp.
I saw a red medium-sized demon beast rushing from the depths of the swamp at an extremely fast speed.
"Woo......" The treant let out a strange frightened sound, turned around and ran towards the puddle that had come out of it.
"Whoa", the treant plunged headlong into the puddle, and after a few splashes, the treant vanished.
The demon beast that came wildly quickly came to the puddle, and circled around the puddle a few times, roaring from time to time, as if it was not reconciled.
Huang Hua finally saw this demon beast clearly, it was a red medium-sized bipedal red lin lizard, a bit like the Tyrannosaurus dinosaur in modern population, but it was much smaller.
The Chilin lizard circled the puddle a few times, and finally looked up at Huang Hua.
Huang Hua still stopped on the magic weapon not far away, although he didn't want to take the initiative to provoke this demon beast, but he was not afraid, after all, this was only a fifth-level demon beast.
Huang Hua began to understand a little that the strange giant flower before and the tree monster that appeared behind should be just an ancient and primitive barbaric species, although it was born to transform into shape, but it could not open the spiritual intelligence to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so in the end it could only become the food of those demon beasts that had opened the spiritual intelligence, which was also the reason why Huang Hua couldn't feel the mana and spiritual energy on their bodies.
