Douluo: Evolving from the Man-faced Demon Spider

Chapter 100 Dragon Bone
From the outside, the chimeric jellyfish's nest looks like a half-eggshell broken from the middle, with the opening facing upwards, and below it is a sea pit nearly ten meters deep.

Fang Chang led the members of the sea spider clan to dive down from the edge of the sea pit. From time to time, a few chimeric jellyfish could be found alone in the dark water, but they were quickly killed by the angry sea spider clan.

Although this sea pit looks not small, it is not that big compared to Fang Chang and the sea spider queen who are several meters long.

They just walked a few steps in the pit, turned around, walked a few more steps, turned around again, and they had already explored the sea pit.

At first glance, there seemed to be nothing special about this lair. Fang Chang lifted one spider leg up to his chin. After thinking about it carefully, his intuition told him that this lair must not be that simple.

"Xiao Jin, how long has the chimeric jellyfish occupied this nest?" Fang Chang established a telepathic connection with the sea spider queen, and then asked her, hoping to find some useful clues from her.

Xiao Jin is the name he gave to the sea spider queen. There is no such thing as a name in the spider family, but Fang Chang still gave her one for convenience.

Xiao Jin's eyes revealed a thoughtful look, "It's probably tens of thousands of years."

"Since I can remember, the nest of chimeric jellyfish has been here. We fought countless times in the middle of the journey and drove them away several times, but in the end they came back again."

"Oh..." Fang Chang nodded, thinking quickly in his heart.

From Xiao Jin's words, he got a very important piece of information, that is, chimeric jellyfish have lived here almost all the time in the past tens of thousands of years, but their strength has only started to skyrocket in the past two years.

There are roughly only two possibilities for this situation. One is that the reason why they suddenly become stronger has nothing to do with this nest; thing.

It's a pity that the fusion jellyfish monster has been digested in Fang Chang's stomach right now, and there is not even a scum left, otherwise I can find it and ask it.

Xiao Jin hesitated for a moment, and then responded to Fang Chang through telepathy, "The lifespan of chimeric jellyfish is usually very short, and very few of them can live beyond 1000 years, but in the past two years, some of them have reached their soul power. More than 2000 years."

"This alone is very abnormal, and the number of them is obviously more than before. We just haven't fought for more than 30 years, and their number has almost doubled."

"It is precisely because of this that our sea spider family was beaten so badly by them this time." When she said this, her words were obviously much heavier.

Wait... Fang Chang suddenly noticed a key question from her words, "You said you didn't go to war for more than 30 years?"

"En." Xiao Jin nodded, "They have settled down a lot for a long time in the past, and they have never dared to step into our territory. During this period, we have not had any conflicts until a few days ago."

By the way, this is the crux of the problem, Fang Chang realized it all at once.

It's likely not that something caused the chimeric jellyfish population to rise, but that the brief period of peace gave them a chance to expand, and they themselves reproduced far faster than the sea spider species.

If there are too many, then...

"Xiao Jin, do you still have the image? Is the original size of this lair as big as it is now?" Fang Chang asked hurriedly, which made Xiao Jin a little astonished.

"It's about the same..." She looked at the sea pit and looked around, and then added uncertainly, "But it doesn't seem to be as deep as it is now."

After receiving her reply, Fang Chang immediately ordered her to lead the tribe to dig down the sea pit.I also use the two shield-shaped front legs as shovels to dig down the silted soil, and then transport it to the outside of the pit to dump it.

After digging down another meter like this, Fang Chang suddenly felt a strange and powerful aura.

He turned to Xiao Jin, she obviously sensed the same aura at this time, and was looking at Fang Chang, but those weak sea spiders didn't respond yet.

Continuing to dig, the two of them looked at each other and got the same answer.

Dozens of spiders continued digging in the pit, and after about two hours, the depth of the pit deepened by nearly two meters.

The mysterious atmosphere became more and more intense, and Fang Chang and Xiao Jin could even feel the direction it was coming from.

"Dig here." Fang Chang quickly rushed to the southwest of the lair while transmitting the voice, and this mysterious aura was continuously emanating from there.

Soon, as the spiders dug, a light golden skeleton with a length of about ten meters gradually appeared in their field of vision.

The skeleton seems to be about ten meters long, half of which is the body and head, and the other half is a long tail with wings on its back, two pairs of short legs under its abdomen, and a narrow and long skull.

dragon!A name appeared in the minds of Fang Chang and Xiao Jin at the same time, which made them overjoyed. Who would have thought that there was a keel hidden under this nest of chimeric jellyfish.

The dragon is a remarkable creature in the Douluo plane. It is revered as the co-lord of the soul beasts, and its own strength and physique are beyond the reach of other soul beasts.

Moreover, creatures like dragons are not only powerful when they are alive, but even after they die, they can also have some unique effects on the environment.

For example, the Ice and Fire Liangyiyan is a special terrain formed after two of the nine dragon kings fell there, which can make plants grow ten times faster.

And there is actually a keel here, and it is probably because of it that the strength of the chimeric jellyfish has skyrocketed.

Fang Chang's first reaction when he saw this pile of keel bones was to eat it!

But after careful inspection, he was disappointed to find that this keel had been buried in the ground for many years, and it had already grown into one body with the land.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't separate the keel from the ground, and there was a faint coercion on the keel, which made Fang Chang very uncomfortable.

After several attempts, he still decided to temporarily give up the idea of ​​eating the keel, and instead studied its function.

The first thing he thought of was that it might be able to speed up the cultivation of spirit beasts, just like chimeric jellyfish.

After more than half a month of experimentation, he finally found that this keel did increase the speed of cultivation.

The weaker the soul power of the soul beast, the better its effect. Similar to the decades-level sea spider, the speed of cultivation near the keel can even reach five or six times.

And for soul beasts whose soul power is hundreds of years to less than 1000 years old, the keel can increase the speed of cultivation by about twice.

But the effect of the keel is getting smaller and smaller, especially for Fang Chang and Xiao Jin, who are 9-[-]-year-old soul beasts, they can hardly have any effect.

At the same time, Fang Chang made another important discovery, that is, the sea mud near the keel may have been affected by it for a long time, thus carrying a trace of spiritual power.

If the soul beasts devoured the soil with spiritual power, their strength could also be improved, especially those soul beasts with weak soul power could use this to quickly increase their strength.

Presumably this is the key reason why the strength of those chimeric jellyfish has skyrocketed in the past two years, because 30 years of peace, coupled with their uncontrolled reproduction, have caused their numbers to skyrocket.

The size of the original nest was not enough to accommodate so many chimeric jellyfish and it became crowded. Some chimeric jellyfish began to dig and eat the mud at the bottom of the nest in order to expand the space of the nest.

Soon they found that their soul power had increased rapidly, attracting more chimeric jellyfish to devour the mud together, which finally made their strength suppress the sea spiders in turn.

Knowing this, Fang Chang immediately decided to move the sea spider clan's lair as a whole, collect the silt near the keel, and distribute it according to factors such as talent, potential, and contribution to the clan.

It is believed that with the help of this keel, the sea spider family will rise rapidly in the near future.
