Chapter 292: The Mysterious Green Demon Spring Ginseng!
Chapter 292: The Mysterious Green Demon Spring Ginseng!
Calm, calm down!
Su Ping forced himself to steady his breathing.
His gaze, however, couldn't help but fixate on the small grass swaying gently in the wind above.
His mind quickly flashed through all he knew about the Green Demon Spring Ginseng.
Capable of escaping through any situation.
The only substantial hindrance was gold, which could block its path.
Additionally, it possessed a certain level of intelligence and self-awareness, making it an exceptionally unique plant-based life form.
However, even with these characteristics, capturing this creature was by no means an easy task.
In fact, it seemed to be the case.
The peculiar little grass, swaying gently, suddenly moved again. Instead of fleeing directly, it seemed to have observed the two individuals and their surrounding pets, concluding that they posed no significant threat. It slowly descended from the mountain wall.
It came to rest not far from Su Ping's location.
This scene was not only witnessed by Su Ping but also by Xing Chen, who stood nearby.
Xing Chen, accompanying Cold Sir, had seen his fair share of wonders, but even he was taken aback by this sight:
"Su Ping, is this...?"
Mobile plant-based creatures were not uncommon; those plant-based pets, though slow, could move.
However, this certainly did not include the ubiquitous wild grass.
Moreover, this creature's speed was astonishing.
It wasn't the kind of speed that made it impossible to catch up; rather, it was a different concept of speed. Xing Chen stared for a long time, unable to perceive how the grass was moving through space.
It was as if the ground was moving, while the grass remained rooted in place, never showing any signs of movement.
This bizarre situation left Xing Chen bewildered.
Su Ping paid no heed to Xing Chen's question; at this moment, his entire focus was on the creature.
Dare to provoke me?!
Indeed, the grass's appearance before him was a provocation to Su Ping, a blatant challenge.
Within the soul contract, Su Ping quickly provided feedback to Qian Yi.
Qian Yi remained silent.
A subtle glow began to circulate on the Quintessence Wind Robe, which he had become adept at controlling.
Pure golden elements slowly encircled him,
and in Su Ping's unwavering gaze, it was like a thunderous explosion, racing away with lightning speed.
At the same time, the origami figures under Qian Yi's control formed a solid gold plate.
Its speed was several times faster than any previous attempt!
Bang!
The dull sound rang painfully in Su Ping's eardrums, startling a large flock of birds outside the dense forest.
However, Su Ping had no time to ponder this, as he witnessed Qian Yi taking action personally, and with full force. He licked his lips, which had gone dry from tension.
Nervousness.
Any beastmaster, not just Su Ping, would feel anxious when faced with the potential presence of the Green Demon Spring Ginseng.
Even Cold Sir, a formidable figure, experienced the same tension.
But the truth was that nervousness didn't help.
Amidst the terrifying roar, it was clear from the golden box that the capture of the Green Demon Spring Ginseng had failed, even without opening it.
Right next to Qian Yi, on the ground, the solitary wild grass stood, swaying in the aftermath of the energy eruption.
Failure.
At this moment, Xing Chen finally understood Su Ping's intention. He didn't know what this peculiar grass was, but he had seen the young master eating grass in the Heavenly Mountain for many days, presumably for this very reason.
A beam of light appeared behind Xing Chen.
It was a mechanical tiger with a metallic glow, and its joints emitted flickering electric currents.
Clearly, this was Xing Chen's ace combat pet.
Its aura seemed no less formidable than the previous Mechanical Titan.
"Xiao Ping, do you need my help?"
Evidently, even after Qian Yi activated the Elemental Paper Figure's energy core, capturing the creature seemed challenging from Su Ping's perspective.
Su Ping gazed at the wild grass still floating nearby, exhaled slowly, and then nodded:
"But Xing Ge, you must not harm this little creature! And be aware, it can escape through any means, only high-density gold can restrain it!"
Xing Chen nodded in understanding. After all, he had observed this peculiar plant for many days and understood its patterns.
The strange mechanical tiger, under Su Ping's astonished gaze, slowly transformed into a liquid and disappeared before his eyes.
Indeed, mechanical pets were a new breed, renowned for disrupting the beastmaster world, but unfortunately, Su Ping's Fei Fei couldn't showcase her abilities in this regard.
Su Ping didn't have time to lament as he watched the Mech Tiger seemingly merge into the soil, and even the golden plate, under these circumstances, turned into a liquid and disappeared before their eyes.
The Green Demon Spring Ginseng's main body seemed to sense something too, its body swaying gently in the wind, slowing down.
It seemed to be discerning the danger it was facing.
Then, with the speed of a rabbit, it burst into action!
Countless metal particles enveloped the golden substance, which had re-solidified, and in an instant, it shot out from the ground, trapping the tiny grass within!
Did it succeed?!
Su Ping stared intently at everything before him, as if electromagnetic light had spread across the entire ground the moment it appeared.
What a terrifying ability.
Su Ping felt a bit tense.
But soon, his eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Everything vanished, and the Mech Tiger, which had reassembled, returned to Xing Chen and Su Ping's front.
Then, the re-melted and solidified golden wrapping was slowly opened, revealing a faint, semi-transparent metal layer.
At that moment, Su Ping felt his blood boil with excitement.
The unimaginable surge of excitement made Su Ping's heart seem to stop for a moment.
Because at this very moment, inside the golden wrapping, the wild grass that had been 'showing off' earlier was lying there, incredibly still.
Did it succeed?
Did it really succeed?
Su Ping exhaled a long breath.
However, before he could catch his breath, he almost choked.
Xiao Qing, the commander of this operation, glanced at the golden chest and then looked towards a nearby spot.
Indeed, a common Trumpet Vine was swaying gently nearby. Then, as if sensing Su Ping's gaze, the Trumpet Vine, like before, seemed to shrink and slowly moved from the ground to a spot not far from Su Ping.
Su Ping's previous excitement faded.
Damn it!
This little thing was too annoying!
But soon, he controlled his emotions, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly.
The difference between a hunter and prey lies in the control of one's emotions.
Su Ping understood this,
But even after completely suppressing his emotions, Su Ping still felt a bit lost.
He had only taken action three times in a row.
All his previous speculations were completely overturned.
Judging from this creature's behavior of 'showing off' and 'playing' with him, its intelligence was probably no less than that of a normal person.
Needless to say, even Xing Ge's methods couldn't capture it.
More importantly, from this moment on, as this little thing continued to 'show off,' it was clear that the previous two captures hadn't made it leave directly, obviously not taking them seriously at all.
Or, fundamentally, it didn't see them as any threat or influence!
That's why this little guy could continue to 'show off' here.
Su Ping blinked.
He finally realized that his idea might have been a bit too idealistic. A legendary resource! Being at this level represented its rarity and precious value.
Even if he found it, this thing wasn't something he could just pick like mushrooms.
Xing Chen seemed to notice Su Ping's disappointment and helplessness, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Xiao Ping, do you want to call Lord Ghost Saint over?"
Should he call Cold Sir?
Su Ping was indeed a bit reluctant.
If Cold Sir came, although this thing might be shared with him in the future, it would have nothing to do with him.
People are inherently selfish.
Su Ping had found this creature's whereabouts from Xiao Qing's mutated root, and after so many days of searching, he wasn't satisfied with just giving it away.
Thinking of this, Su Ping narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Let's try again. If it still doesn't work, then there's nothing else we can do."
Xing Chen nodded. "What do you want me to do?"
Su Ping thought for a moment, and then his eyebrows furrowed slightly. "No need, I'll think of something myself."
Xing Chen was taken aback but showed no change in expression. He nodded.
Xing Chen understood that this creature's value was probably not low, and asking directly might cause this little guy to misunderstand.
Su Ping exhaled, and without any further action, he opened the golden box and threw the strange little grass to the side. He sat down on the ground, and the Green Demon Spring Ginseng, which had transformed into a Trumpet Vine, was just three to five meters in front of him.
Xing Chen stared at this scene; this creature was indeed strange. If it showed any intention to attack, he and his pet beast would be able to react immediately.
Indeed, Su Ping's idea was simple.
Since the hard approach didn't work, why not try a soft approach?
Since it had intelligence, didn't that mean they could communicate?
And if they could communicate, could they...
Pfft, it's cooperation!
