Xiao Yu looked at the Spirit Stones on the ground and considered briefly. With a thought, he sent a green ball of light out of his avatar's nostril. It flew to his brow, pressed against it, and slipped inside.
He was recalling the avatar's divided soul and assimilating it. Although there would ordinarily be no problem, the divided soul had spent decades away from his original body, and no one could guarantee that nothing had changed.
Thus, he assimilated the divided soul to ensure that nothing could go wrong.
After gathering most of the Spirit Stones on the ground into a Storage Bag, Xiao Yu sat cross-legged and transferred the bag, along with some items he would not need for the time being, into the space.
Next, Xiao Yu went to the Insect Room where he kept the Blood Jade Spiders. One look inside brought another pleasant surprise: the spiders had changed greatly from thirty years ago.
The two larger ones had both grown to twenty feet across. Their carapaces, legs, fangs, and the rest of their bodies were no longer their original pure white, but a purplish red that looked extraordinarily sinister.
Their carapaces were no longer smooth, either. Tiny scales patterned like dragon markings had grown across their surfaces.
The spiritual pressure they radiated had actually reached level five, yet it was far stronger than that of an early Core Formation human cultivator.
Xiao Yu estimated that, as rare and extraordinary spirit insects, the Blood Jade Spiders could now handle a Middle Core Formation cultivator with ease. They should even be able to hold their own against a late-stage cultivator.
At first, Xiao Yu truly had not expected these two Blood Jade Spiders to grow so quickly. After all, spirit insects took an extraordinarily long time to advance.
