Killing the Man Faced Demon Spider (Seeking Investment! Seeking Monthly Ticket! Seeking Recommendation Ticket!)
Not long after Jing Shaoyu and Xu Xiaoyan began traveling together, Gu Yue found them, so the three of them formed a team and moved on.
As the three of them walked, they arrived at the place where Tang Wulin's group of three had previously encountered the thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider. The grass and trees here all showed signs of corrosion, and on a large tree not far away was a mass of sticky spider silk. Jing Shaoyu and the others immediately grew alert.
"Whoosh—"
Suddenly, the sound of something cutting through the air came from behind them. The three immediately turned back, only to see a huge white web of spider silk flying toward Xu Xiaoyan. Jing Shaoyu and Gu Yue raised their hands at the same time and released Fireballs together. The Fireballs struck the white web at the same time, and the web instantly ignited, turning to ash!
"Ah!" Xu Xiaoyan cried out in alarm. She pointed a small finger at a large tree less than a hundred meters away from them and shouted, "It's a spider!"
Jing Shaoyu and Gu Yue looked in the direction of her voice and sure enough saw a huge spider crouching on a large tree. The spider's body was more than a meter in diameter, and its eight legs were over three meters long. Its body was pitch-black, but its abdomen was deathly pale. Looking carefully, they realized that it was actually a hideous, bewitching human face.
"A Man Faced Demon Spider!" Jing Shaoyu immediately recognized the giant spider's identity and could not help revealing a surprised expression. Wasn't this the Tang Family's great benefactor? "Mm! From the looks of it, its cultivation should have surpassed two thousand years," Gu Yue said with a grave expression.
"Little Yu Brother, what do we do? Do we fight?" Xu Xiaoyan hid behind Jing Shaoyu, both hands tightly hugging his arm. He could feel that the girl was very frightened and trembling all over.
This really could not be blamed on her. After all, a soul beast like the Man Faced Demon Spider truly looked extremely unnerving. Let alone a nine-year-old little girl like Xu Xiaoyan, even many grown men would feel their hearts go cold if they saw it.
At this moment, everyone in the control room could not help sweating for Jing Shaoyu and the other two. Among them, Wang Jinxi and Xie Xie, who had been killed by this Man Faced Demon Spider, had even paler faces. Clearly, they had recalled the scene from just now, and they became even more worried for Jing Shaoyu's group of three.
Long Hengxu's expression was solemn. He thought to himself, Could Zero Class's first trip to the Spirit Ascension Platform really be ended by a thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider?
Wu Zhangkong's face was expressionless, but the flicker that flashed through his eyes still exposed his inner feelings.
"Fight! Why wouldn't we?"
Back inside the Spirit Ascension Platform, Jing Shaoyu stared gravely at the Man Faced Demon Spider and spoke with great calm.
If this were the real world, then Jing Shaoyu might have had many concerns, but this was inside the Spirit Ascension Platform. Even if they could not beat it, they would only be sent out of the Spirit Ascension Platform. There was no danger to their lives. Since that was the case, why shouldn't they fight? It was only a two-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider.
As he said this, the three of them had already been in a standoff with the Man Faced Demon Spider for some time. The Man Faced Demon Spider's eight thick, sharp legs slowly shifted, moving from the tree to the ground. Jing Shaoyu's group also slowly retreated, forming a battle formation. Jing Shaoyu stood at the front, Gu Yue in the middle, and Xu Xiaoyan at the rear.
With a thought, a long spear woven from plants appeared in Jing Shaoyu's hand. Since he was still in the state of Origin Spirit Martial Soul Possession, the people in the control room outside did not realize that this long spear was actually his second martial soul.
However, Gu Yue, standing behind Jing Shaoyu, sensed a violent and vicious aura in that instant, and a feeling of uncertainty and alarm rose in her heart.
There was no time to think, because Jing Shaoyu had already taken the lead and charged at the Man Faced Demon Spider. As he sprinted forward, he waved his left hand, and with the rhythm of his left hand, the surrounding trees and grass all began to change. Countless vines and branches, pulled along by Jing Shaoyu, swept toward the Man Faced Demon Spider.
The eight eyes on the Man Faced Demon Spider's head gave off a faint green light. It raised its two front legs and swung them rapidly, like two sharp spears, instantly cutting apart the incoming vines and branches. At the same time, it spat out a black, foul-smelling liquid from its mouth. Any vegetation touched by this liquid was immediately corroded into a pool of green water.
Jing Shaoyu showed not the slightest fear. He leapt up and arrived above the Man Faced Demon Spider's head, aiming the long spear in his hand at its head and thrusting at once. The Man Faced Demon Spider reacted extremely quickly and immediately stretched out two spider legs to block above its head. The spear tip collided with the spider legs, instantly producing a metallic clang—"Zheng—" Jing Shaoyu felt a powerful force surge toward him, withdrew his spear, and flew into the air.
The Man Faced Demon Spider fared even worse. The two spider legs it had used to block Jing Shaoyu's spear were both cracked, and dense yellow-green blood began seeping out.
An Ice Wheel quietly appeared beneath the Man Faced Demon Spider's feet while it was clashing with Jing Shaoyu. The human-face pattern on its abdomen was not just for show. After detecting the Ice Wheel beneath its feet, it let out a sharp cry. The Man Faced Demon Spider received the warning and immediately shifted backward. However, it was still too late. The Ice Wheel had already frozen one of its hind legs.
Gu Yue had also finished preparing her move. The instant Xu Xiaoyan restrained the Man Faced Demon Spider, she suddenly pushed out with both hands. Then a tornado storm burning with raging flames swept across the grassland, leaving a trail of ash behind as it crashed toward the Man Faced Demon Spider.
The fire tornado grew larger and larger as it advanced, and the flames burned fiercer and fiercer. The scorching air currents made fear flash through the Man Faced Demon Spider's eight small eyes. It was afraid. If it were swept into such a firestorm, then even with its strength, it would be severely injured.
The Man Faced Demon Spider was worthy of being one of the most vicious soul beasts. It was vicious to its prey, and just as vicious to itself. It actually directly cut off the spider leg Xu Xiaoyan had restrained, then immediately dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding Gu Yue's firestorm.
Sacrificing a limb to survive—this Man Faced Demon Spider was quite clever! Jing Shaoyu watched this scene, and a trace of surprise flashed through his eyes. He attacked again, swinging the long spear in his hand and stabbing toward the Man Faced Demon Spider's big belly. Since the Man Faced Demon Spider had just dodged Gu Yue's firestorm and had yet to steady itself, Jing Shaoyu seized this opportunity and stabbed its round, swollen belly without holding anything back.
"Sss—"
A gush of yellow-green blood sprayed out. Jing Shaoyu immediately pulled away. The Endless Godslaying Spear had already been withdrawn back into his body. What remained in the Man Faced Demon Spider's belly was only a spear sheath woven from vines. The Man Faced Demon Spider's blood contained deadly poison, and the plants stained by its blood were instantly corroded away.
The Man Faced Demon Spider's eyes were filled with rage and pain. It stared fixedly at Jing Shaoyu in the air. The pain from its belly made it want to kill this annoying human immediately and devour his body to repair the wound on its abdomen.
However, Jing Shaoyu was flying in the air, leaving it helpless. So it turned its gaze toward the two people on the ground, Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan.
Without any hesitation or delay, its huge body instantly pounced toward the two girls. Its ferocious mouthparts sprayed out thick, smoking venom, and venom also gathered on its remaining seven spider legs as they stabbed toward Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan.
Naturally, Gu Yue had no emotional fluctuation at all. She looked expressionlessly at the incoming Man Faced Demon Spider. Silver light flickered over her body, and she immediately vanished.
Seeing Gu Yue disappear, the Man Faced Demon Spider did not give up its attack, because Xu Xiaoyan was still behind her.
Xu Xiaoyan looked at the Man Faced Demon Spider pouncing toward her in great panic. The Star Wheel Ice Staff in her hand waved continuously, and Ice Spears condensed one after another, shooting rapidly toward the Man Faced Demon Spider.
Before the Ice Spears could touch the Man Faced Demon Spider, they were completely melted away by the demon spider's extremely corrosive venom.
Seeing this, Xu Xiaoyan could only keep retreating. When Jing Shaoyu in the air saw this situation, he immediately dove down to help her, constantly firing Fireballs from his hands. The Fireballs kept smashing into the Man Faced Demon Spider, but the Man Faced Demon Spider seemed determined to kill Xu Xiaoyan and remained completely unmoved.
Jing Shaoyu flew into a rage. The Origin Wings behind him immediately accelerated, allowing him to rush in front of Xu Xiaoyan at top speed. Then, with a wave of both hands, a massive Water Wave from who knew where surged out. The surging Water Wave collided with the advancing Man Faced Demon Spider, and in an instant, the Water Wave knocked the Man Faced Demon Spider back dozens of meters, dissolving its offensive.
The Man Faced Demon Spider was extremely unwilling. However, before it could regroup and launch another attack, Gu Yue, who had disappeared earlier, was already standing on a large tree behind it. Her jade-like hands moved rapidly, as if she were playing a piece of music. Countless Ice Cones fell from above the Man Faced Demon Spider in time with her movements, one after another, smashing into the Man Faced Demon Spider until it was dizzy and disoriented.
And because its body had been soaked by the Water Wave summoned by Jing Shaoyu, after it was struck by Gu Yue's Ice Cones, thin layers of frost immediately formed across its body, turning its originally pitch-black body into a vast expanse of white.
The frost made the Man Faced Demon Spider's body somewhat stiff and slowed its movements. However, Jing Shaoyu and the other two would not wait for it to deal with the frost on its body before acting.
Gu Yue condensed an Ice and Snow Storm, and Jing Shaoyu once again summoned the Endless Godslaying Spear wrapped in vines. One in front and one behind, the two of them launched the final attack on the Man Faced Demon Spider at the same time.
The outcome was already clear. As Jing Shaoyu's long spear pierced into the Man Faced Demon Spider's head, this battle came to an end.
