Ye Han could not tell what kind of treasure this trough, which looked like mutton-fat white jade, was or what it was used for.
He had never seen it in any of the illustrated treasure catalogs he had read.
But judging by its treasured radiance and the heaven and earth spiritual energy it emitted, it was definitely something extraordinary.
Both ends were sealed, too. No matter how he looked at it, it resembled a large trough for growing flowers!
And in a cave so thick with demonic qi, the White Jade Flower Trough remained pristine and white as jade.
That alone showed how extraordinary it was.
No wonder Golden Thread Grass, the main ingredient in Foundation Establishment Pills, could grow in a place with such dense demonic qi. Who had used such a fine treasure to grow plants?
Still, what they had planted was Golden Thread Grass. Its flowers were exceptionally beautiful, and as the main ingredient for refining Foundation Establishment Pills, it was immensely valuable... so it did make sense.
Just then, the Blade Mantis Magic Beast scrambled up from the ground, opened its enormous maw, and spat at Ye Han's back.
A great mouthful of black-red liquid sprayed toward him...
Ye Han reacted at once, swinging the White Jade Flower Trough in his hands around to shield himself.
Although Ye Han had seemed to dodge the Blade Mantis Magic Beast's repeated attacks effortlessly with Ghost Step Pace, the movement technique actually consumed about as much spell power as casting a high-level Qi Refining Realm spell...
Otherwise, he could have kept using Ghost Step Pace to flee, moving far faster than he could with a lightness spell...
Another reason was that the Blade Mantis Magic Beast was not trying to kill him. Its task was probably to capture him
