Chapter 84 – Clip Hard
Chapter 84 – Clip Tough
Using a small sturdy wooden barrel, the skinny youth took out four chelonian crab hatchlings from the pool and closed the mouth of the barrel, leaving only a few small holes for air.
Lu Xuan delivered him eighty Spirit Stones and, with the wooden barrel, headed for home.
On the way, from time to time, clanging sounds came from inside the barrel, and the few chelonian crabs inside tossed vigorously.
Half a moment later, back at home, the Cloud Treading Lynx jumped down from Lu Xuan’s shoulder and gracefully entered inside the Spirit Field.
Lu Xuan brought the barrel to the edge of the Spirit Spring Pond and opened the closed wooden boards, the most arrogant one held up a pair of large knife-like chelipeds and jumped out, flaunting at Lu Xuan, seemingly rebelling against the fact that it had been kept in the airtight wooden barrel.
The other three followed closely behind, lining up in a row, each arrogant and domineering.
On the inside of the barrel, there was a trail of varying depths, showing the power of the pair of chelipeds of this First Grade Iron Chelated Crab.
“I’ll leave it to you, first tame them properly and let them know the rules of the Lu Mansion.”
Lu Xuan said to the Treading Cloud Lynx at the side.
The Treading Cloud Lynx walked with a slow pace and elegant posture to the four mitten crabs.
The iron chelated crabs were not the least bit intimidated, holding up a greenish-black cheliped that was even longer than their bodies, they directly rushed towards the Treading Cloud Lynx’s white clouded paws and viciously clamped them.
The Treading Cloud Lynx’s paw slapped the most arrogant mitten crab hatchling down, and the other three mitten crabs surrounded and attacked, respectively pinching at the Treading Cloud Lynx’s paw and short tail.
With a gentle leap, the lynx tuned out from the siege of the four mitten crab hatchlings, and the paws of its feet took turns slapping on the crab shells, subduing them one by one.
The four mitten crab young beasts finally recognized their situation clearly, obediently lying on the ground, only the dripping eyeballs on their heads indicated the actual dishonesty.
Lu Xuan grabbed the motionless ferruginous mitten crab young beasts and threw them into the Spirit Spring Pool.
After being nourished by the pure spirit spring, the young chelonia crab instantly came to life and crawled around in the spirit spring pool.
Lu Xuan’s mind focused on them as a thought flashed through his mind.
[Iron Chelated Crab, First Grade Demonic Beast, aggressive, chelipeds are hard and sharp, after being raised and grown up, the crab shells can be used to refine defense-type magical weapons].
[Omnivorous demonic beast, can be raised with demonic beast meat foam, spiritual rice, water plants, etc.]]
[Rampage, nothing is not pinched!
Information about the Iron Chelid Crab flooded into Lu Xuan’s mind.
“Clip nothing? I’ll kill you if you dare to clip my Pure Snow Lotus.”
Lu Xuan snorted coldly and performed the Earth Drawing Technique, controlling the soil at the bottom of the Spirit Spring Pond to surround the Pure Snow Lotus high up.
After familiarizing itself with the environment of the Spirit Spring Pool, the most active one, the Iron Chequered Crab Juvenile Beast, began to get restless, its pair of chelipeds climbing on the stone wall of the Spirit Spring Pool, slowly crawling upwards.
“So dishonest, eating early will break out of jail.”
Lu Xuan called the Grass Puppet over and ordered.
“In the future, when you patrol the Spirit Field, come over to this side of the Spirit Spring Pond more often, and if you see any chelonian crabs crawling out, throw them back into the Spirit Spring Pond.”
The Grass Puppet’s head had returned to its original shape by now, and the huge gray grass head nodded, signaling that it would listen to the instructions.
As night fell, at the edge of the Spirit Spring Pool, a ferruginous mitten crab hatchling struggled to climb up from the stone wall of the Spirit Spring Pool, crossed the edge and came to the shore.
A pair of bulging eyeballs dribbled around, observing the surrounding situation through the hazy night color.
There was nothing strange happening, and the foreign beast that had tortured itself to death during the day was nowhere to be seen.
After realizing that the situation was great, the chelonian crab hatchling’s eyes spun even faster, visibly excited.
It crawled on the ground at a rapid pace, trying to find an exit.
Suddenly, a rope of gray and black grass came behind the hatchling without a sound, penetrating deep underneath its abdomen.
The chelonian crab hatchling sensed the abnormality and kept adjusting its pace, with a pair of chelipeds held high in the air, wanting to cut the sneak attack itself in two. Although the gray and black grass rope was slow, it was always hidden behind the young beast, occasionally circling around the crab feet for a week.
Soon, the chelonian crab hatchling was tied up by the gray and black grass rope.
The grass golem topped its huge head and slowly contracted the gray-black grass rope, coming to the side of the hatchling.
The grass rope left a short section, just enough to be carried in the hand.
It came to the edge of the Spirit Spring Pool, its arms stretched out, the gray-black grass rope spread continuously, and after reaching the air above the center of the Spirit Spring Pool, the gray-black grass rope that bound the chelonian crab hatchling instantly loosened.
With a snap, the young beast fell into the Spirit Spring Pool, splashing down on the clean white lotus flower surrounded by the earthen wall, and then rolling down from the lotus leaves.
The following morning, Lu Xuan woke up early to start a new day of Spirit Plant Master routine.
He first checked over the spirit field, casting Spirit Rain Technique Wood Born Technique and so on according to the growth state of the spirit plants.
After all this, he then went to the house and grabbed a large handful of Spirit Rice and sprinkled it into the Spirit Spring Pool.
Spiritual rice fell into the bottom of the pool, attracted the attention of the four mitten crab young beasts, tossing the night they held up their chelipeds, extremely dexterous to pick up a grain of full-grain spiritual rice, stuffed into the mouth.
“If you’re so good at clamping, find you guys something to do.”
When the Iron Chequered Crab young beasts had eaten and drank their fill, Lu Xuan looked at the pair of hard chelipeds that were like large knives, and his heart stirred.
He took out the most arrogant Iron Chequered Crab Juvenile from the Spirit Spring Pool, and took out a fist-sized grain of refined iron ore from his storage pouch and sent it underneath the chelipeds.
Seeing that something was sent to him, the mitten crab hatchling immediately opened its chelicerae, clamped the fine iron ore up and down, and exerted force so hard that the hard ore was immediately split in two.
“Continue.”
Lu Xuan took one of the pieces and once again sent it underneath the Iron Chelated Crab’s chelicerae.
The Iron Chequered Crab Larva once again ruthlessly clamped the ore off.
“Again.”
Lu Xuan took another piece.
So on and so forth, a fist-sized piece of fine iron ore turned into hundreds of pieces of rubble, and under the constant force of the edges of the pair of chelicerae, the iron chelicerae crab’s pair of chelicerae had begun to turn white.
It was just that as soon as Lu Xuan sent the ore underneath his chelipeds, it couldn’t help but just want to clip it off.
“Haha, again!”
Lu Xuan laughed out loud, and with a movement of his spiritual energy, a small pile of fine iron ore appeared in front of the young beast, piled high.
The Iron Chequered Crab Cub’s chelipeds couldn’t help but tremble a little.
Lu Xuan took out the other three chelonian crab hatchlings from the Spirit Spring Pool and had them start to get busy.
“The shattered copper and iron ores needed for the Copper Bone Bamboo are finally well taken care of, and with these Iron Chelating Crab Juveniles, there’s basically no need to go out on your own.”
Lu Xuan thought in a happy mood, the Copper Bone Bamboo needed Copper Iron Ore for its rapid growth, the smaller the size of the ore, the easier it would be to absorb it, Lu Xuan had previously used the Split Silver Blade and the Red Thread Needle to cut the ore, which was time consuming and laborious.
Now, it was much easier all of a sudden.
He looked at the chelonian crab hatchling that was still insisting on clamping off the ore and lamented.
“Don’t relax down, clip hard, clip a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, so that you can break through your limits, the chelipeds will be fully exercised, and when they become strong themselves, you will be able to swing at me and attack!”
Whenever a young beast relaxed, Lu Xuan prodded from the side.
The sound of the chelipeds clamping off the fine iron ore came continuously, pleasing to the ears.
