There were many jade snails in the valley, and there were a dozen of them. But they moved very slowly, and they posed no threat to Han Sen.
The jade snail's geno core was their snail shell. They weren't aggressive, but their defense was strong. Without a strong attack, even a primitive creature would be unable to break their shell.
Han Sen planned to make a shell for his residence. It was definitely better than a tent. With a shell, he would not have to sleep in the open. He would have a safe place to rest wherever he went, and he would be able to defend himself against the attacks of his enemies.
Of course, Han Sen wanted the jade snail's beast soul the most. Cheap Sheep told Han Sen that the jade snail's beast soul was armor.
Now, Han Sen and Bao'er were still running around the grass. They looked like Tarzan. It would be a huge step forward for them to be able to get a decent set of armor.
When they arrived at the valley, they saw a few house-sized snails crawling slowly on the stream. Their shells were like white porcelain, sparkling and translucent. They looked very beautiful.
Han Sen and Bao 'er went next to a jade snail. The body of the jade snail shrank back into its shell, and the opening was blocked by the jade shell. Not a single gap was left.
Jade snails were not aggressive, and that was why Han Sen had chosen to hunt them. After all, safety was the most important thing.
Of course, Jade Snails were not harmless. Although they crawled slowly, when they crawled, their bodies would secrete a type of venom that would stick to the vegetation.
If other creatures ate the poisoned plants, they would quickly die from the poison. Their bodies would start to rot, and that was what the Jade Snail ate.
Han Sen had learned from Cheap Sheep how the jade snail hunted, so he didn't want to touch the plants. He flew next to the jade snail and used his hand like a knife. He used Ghost Slash on the snail's shell.
There was a dong sound, and it sounded like gold and jade hitting each other. The snail's shell wasn't damaged at all.
Ghost Slash could travel through space, but it didn't increase its power. Han Sen expected it wouldn't break the shell.
Han Sen didn't want to use his fist to break the shell, though. The shell was poisonous, and Han Sen wasn't sure if his Jadeskin could resist it, so he didn't want to take the risk.
Han Sen pulled out a spiral horn from his waist and used Jadeskin to stab the shell.
Han Sen used a spinning arrow skill to make the horn spin like a drill. It struck the snail's shell like a drill.
Suddenly, white powder could be seen swirling in the air as the horn drilled through the snail's shell inch by inch. Not long after, it drilled through the shell, and more than half of the horn was stuck inside.
The jade snail was in pain. It twisted its body and rolled its shell. It was going to try to hit Han Sen.
Han Sen jumped away and used his horn to stab another part of the snail's shell.
The other jade snails moved, too. They were all spinning towards Han Sen, trying to kill Han Sen.
But Han Sen was much faster and stronger than them. The Jade Snail's geno core shell couldn't protect them from being struck by the horn.
Not long after, Han Sen killed one of the jade snails. But after he killed it, its shell, which was riddled with holes, broke and fell to the ground.
"Ordinary Creature Jade Snail killed. No beast soul gained. Geno Core broken. Consume its flesh to gain zero to ten basic geno points randomly."
Han Sen was depressed. Even if he could kill the jade snails, their shells were broken. There was no way he could get their geno cores.
"Whatever, I'll get two armor beast souls first. Bao 'er and I can't always wear grass." Han Sen went on to kill the other jade snails.
But Han Sen's heart jumped. He thought of something. When he was about to reach the Jade Snail, he stopped. He turned around and flew out of the valley.
Han Sen hid outside the valley, and after a while, the jade snails came out of their shells. They crawled towards the dead one and began to eat it.
Han Sen was not in the mood to lament the ruthlessness of the Jade Snails. He summoned something.
It was a bug that was smaller than a speck of dust. It was grey, and it was Han Sen's bronze geno core. It was the Dust Bug.
Han Sen looked at the jade snails and used his Dongxuan Sutra to simulate the power of the earth. Then, the Dust Bug flew towards the jade snails.
The Dust Bug was slow, and it made Han Sen anxious. But there was nothing he could do about it. Every geno core had its pros and cons. The Dust Bug was small and hard, but it was only a bronze geno core.
But Han Sen wanted to see what was good about it. He didn't need to worry about its cons.
The jade snails did not have the Dongxuan Aura, so they couldn't see the Dust Bug. So, it didn't matter.
After a while, the dust worm finally flew to the side of a Jade Snail and stuck to the transparent plastic body of the Jade Snail.
The jade snail shivered as if it had been pricked by a needle. Then, it quickly retreated back into its shell.
However, it was useless for it to shrink back now. The dust worm had already drilled into its body and entered the snail shell along with its body.
It was like the first time Han Sen came to the Fourth God's Sanctuary. The Dust Bug kept drilling through the jade snail's body, riddling it with holes.
However, the dust bug was too small, and the damage it could cause was minimal. After two hours, the hunting announcement finally rang in his head.
"Ordinary Creature Jade Snail killed. Jade Snail beast soul gained. Bronze Geno Core gained: Jade Snail Shell. Consume its flesh to gain zero to ten ordinary geno points randomly."
Han Sen was overjoyed. Not only had he gained a geno core, but he had also gained a beast soul.
Han Sen pulled the leaves off his body and summoned the Jade Snail beast soul. A white armor covered Han Sen's entire body, leaving only his head exposed.
Although the Jade Snail Armor did not have a helmet, Han Sen was happy with it. It was better than being bare-ass.
"Dad, Bao'er wants one, too." Bao'er looked at Han Sen's armor and begged. She loved to look pretty, and she was tired of the grass dress.
"Wait here; I'll get you one." Han Sen's heart jumped, and the dust bug flew towards another jade snail.
