Levels Soaring: Demon Sealing Tower (Part Two)
The Shadow Spider, Ancient Times and primordial beast, is now almost extinct and rarely seen. This Shadow Spider is born with the ability to block Divine Sense detection, and as its cultivation level increases, it can uncover more and more special abilities.
For example, this dark space, which blocks the spread of light, is a dark domain that only Shadow Spider of the Demon Monster level can possess. I never expected to see Shadow Spider inside this Demon Sealing Tower.
The fact that it can be suppressed here suggests that there is a Shadow Spider of Demon Monster power here. These creatures are born as terrifying, ghostly assassins, and what's even more frightening is their Spider reproductive rate...
It was pitch black all around, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. He spread out his Divine Sense but couldn't sense anything. However, Zhuge Xiang could feel a sense of crisis. His instinctive intuition made the hairs on his Zhuge Xiang stand on end.
At the same time, red dots appeared on the Mini-Map Radar, their glow varying in intensity, forming an encirclement that completely surrounded him.
"It seems that killing one has attracted a whole horde?" With a quick glance, Zhuge Xiang estimated that at least dozens of Shadow Spider had surrounded him. Slaying Luo Sword tightly and simultaneously unfurled the Demon Luo Scripture.
A phantom Demon Image appeared behind Zhuge Xiang, then possessed him. Three phantom divine Phantom Image were incorporated into his equipment, and his Demonic True Body was activated, radiating dazzling Demonic Flame that sent a chill down one 'Phantom Image spine. It seemed to sense the impending carnage, Slaying Luo Sword trembled slightly, emitting an expression of joyful anticipation...
Although he couldn't see it with his eyes, Zhuge Xiang could clearly see that the Shadow Spider that had surrounded him on the Mini-Map Radar all paused for a moment. They were obviously intimidated by the aura he was exuding.
"Ding. The Night Emblem effect has been triggered, increasing all attributes by 50%."
Suddenly, Mechanical System Prompt sounded in Zhuge Xiang's mind. Having not fought at night for a long time, Zhuge Xiang had almost forgotten about the Night Emblem. Judging by the time, he entered the Demon Sealing Tower in the evening, so triggering the Night Emblem's Effect now was normal.
"Hehe..." The Night Emblem's Effect made Zhuge Xiang even more powerful. Although he couldn't see his target, Zhuge Xiang chuckled coldly, a bloodthirsty and warlike look on his face.
How long has it been since he had such a chance to wreak havoc? To Zhuge Xiang, these Shadow Spider were all Experience Points!
The Slaying Luo Sword, Sweep Through Thousands of Soldiers terrifying Sword Qi that formed an exaggerated, extreme arc. A sharp, agonizing scream rang out. Accompanied by the sound of flesh being slicing through blood, severed limbs and flying bones heralded the start of this carnage...
What's most terrifying about an assassin? It's their stealth. But against Zhuge Xiang's Mini-Map Radar, the stealth of these Shadow Spider is practically nonexistent. Naturally, these Shadow Spider are like toothless tigers. Add to that Zhuge Xiang's already strong cultivation, his powerful equipment, and even the presence of Lingbao.
Explosive Steps, Three Consecutive Slashes, Sweep Through Thousands of Soldiers, Sword Control Technique, Palm Thunder, Southern Departure Finger...
The slaughter was utterly devastating, a ferocious explosion of power. Zhuge Xiang's speed was like a ghost; if before his Zhuge Xiang was unleashed he was merely a kitten, now he was like the king of beasts roaring through the mountains—the difference was dozens of times greater...
The Mechanical System Prompt kept ringing in Zhuge Xiang 'Zhuge Xiang mind. To him, they were so pleasant and melodious. Each Shadow Spider could bring Zhuge Xiang hundreds of thousands, even millions, of Experience Points, causing Zhuge Xiang Experience Points to soar...
In this dark environment, it felt as if he had entered the lair of Shadow Spider. Endless Shadow Spider surged out, and the slaughter lasted for almost half an hour. The ground beneath Zhuge Xiang's feet was already piled high with the corpses of Shadow Spider. However, the red dots on the Mini-Map Radar did not decrease but instead increased.
The frenzied slaughter had already raised Zhuge Xiang's level from the Fifth Layer of the Gathering Origin Stage to the Sixth Layer, and he was even steadily approaching the seventh Gathering Origin Stage. How long had it been since Zhuge Xiang had fought so frantically?
Hiss hiss hiss...
However, just as Zhuge Xiang was engrossed in the battle, hoping to keep leveling up, a sharp, hoarse voice suddenly rang out from the darkness, its direction unclear.
Immediately, on the Mini-Map Radar, Zhuge Xiang could see that the dense red dots around him receded rapidly like a tide, and in a short while, not a single Shadow Spider could be seen anymore.
"What's going on? Did they realize they were no match for me and back down? Or perhaps, the boss behind them finally couldn't hold back anymore..." Taking a deep breath to calm his racing emotions, Zhuge Xiang sheathed his Slaying Luo Sword. With a calm mind, the Sword Soul within his Purple Mansion Spiritual Platform shone brightly, ensuring that Zhuge Xiang wouldn't lose his senses in the midst of the frenzied battle.
"Human? Judging from the dense Baleful Qi and Demonic Qi emanating from you, you've also been suppressed within this Demon Sealing Tower? Very well, your strength has earned my recognition. From now on, within this Demon Sealing Tower, you will be my subordinate, how about that?" A red dot slowly approached Zhuge Xiang, and a voice rang out from the darkness.
Looking at the red dot, which was so red it was almost purple, and its light was stronger than any of the Shadow Spider before, even though he couldn't see it or detect it with his Divine Sense, Zhuge Xiang could feel an instinctive warning from the depths of his heart. There was also a faint but absolutely undeniable aura of death in the air.
The voice was captivating, seemingly able to Human Heart. Even without seeing the speaker's face, just hearing that voice was enough to mesmerize one.
The Sword Soul within Purple Mansion Spiritual Platform did not react. Clearly, what stirred the deepest desires within Zhuge Xiang was a simple allure, but not a spiritual seduction.
"You want me to be your subordinate? I wonder if you have the ability?" A desire arose in his heart, but Zhuge Xiang kept his mind clear, gripping the Demon Luo Sword tightly, and said with a half-smile.
The Shadow Spider that emerged from the shadows must be incredibly powerful, at least at the Demon Monster level. However, Zhuge Xiang was not intimidated; on the contrary, he was eager to try.
"I like brave people, but I hate those who lack self-awareness," Zhuge Xiang said. In the darkness, her alluring voice carried a chilling undertone.
"In my life, I hate timid guys who don't even dare to show their faces. What? Are you too ugly to show your face?" Zhuge Xiang, his tone still carrying three parts teasing and seven parts mockery, completely disregarding the so-called Demon Monster.
"Hahaha, good, you've successfully angered me. I'll make you the nest where my children hatch," the charming voice suddenly turned sharp, filled with intense anger.
A dignified Demon Monster, comparable to Void Returning Stage cultivator, speaking to Zhuge Xiang from the shadows was naturally a superior address from an elder to a junior, a powerful to a weak. However, Zhuge Xiang did not consider himself a junior or a weakling, and his tone of treating him as an equal touched upon the Demon Monster's dignity as a powerful being.
It was fast, incredibly fast, even unbelievably fast. This Shadow Spider, at the Demon Monster level, was naturally far superior to those at the Fairy level.
It kills at the drop of a hat, and its speed is so fast that Zhuge Xiang can hardly react. On the Mini-Map Radar, because of the Shadow Spider's speed, the red-purple dot almost turns into a beam of light.
"Block Prediction!" Zhuge Xiang shouted in his heart, and hurriedly put on a Block Prediction buff. Almost at the same time, Zhuge Xiang gripped the Slaying Luo Sword and flicked it upwards with incredible speed, blocking a heavy blow.
"It can block? Fortunately, this Shadow Spider hasn't reached the Dao Seeking Realm yet." Zhuge Xiang was slightly taken aback, but secretly pleased that his Block Prediction had actually succeeded in blocking the attack.
At the Void Returning Stage, no matter how powerful one's cultivation is, if one has not glimpsed the Heavenly Dao, it is not considered a cultivation level of the Heavenly Dao Seeking Realm. Compared to humans, it is naturally much more difficult for Demon Cultivator to glimpse the Heavenly Dao.
"You? You can see me?" After Zhuge Xiang blocked her attack, the Shadow Spider did not continue to attack. Her charming voice was full of surprise.
The Shadow Spider, lurking in the darkness, had astonishment in its eyes. Although she had witnessed Zhuge Xiang slaying hundreds of Shadow Spider, she assumed he must have some special abilities. As a Demon Monster, she was not even Void Returning Stage cultivators stage, so this guy must be no match for her.
But the reality was far beyond her expectations.
"Hehe, you already know whether I can see you or not, don't you?" Zhuge Xiang, still with his eyes closed and his mind completely focused on the Mini-Map Radar, grinned, revealing his gleaming white teeth.
The Shadow Spider, its eyes shifting between light and shadow, stared intently at Zhuge Xiang in the darkness for a moment before striking again. "I don't believe it. Your cultivation is still far from the Void Returning Stage; how could you possibly see me?"
"Is that so? Then you can try!" With a roar, Zhuge Xiang activated his Explosive Steps, relying on the movement and distance of the light spot, accurately appearing behind the Shadow Spider. The Slaying Luo Sword in his hand erupted with terrifying Divine Might, slashing fiercely down at the Shadow Spider's back.
The Slaying Luo Sword, Twelve Star Spiritual Treasure, boasts nearly 10,000 attack power, a 50% boost from the Night Emblem, the Demonic True Body, the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique's 5,000 attack power, the Demon Luo Scripture's enhancement, and the Demon Subduing Sword Art's double damage. Even the Shadow Spider, Demon Monster- level being, felt a terrifying threat from this strike... (To be continued...)
