The Unlucky Man Faced Demon Spider

As time passed, Zhao Xiaotian had been absorbing the Ice Crystal Black Bird's Soul Ring for three days and three nights. Bibi Dong had not closed her eyes for those three days and nights either, silently observing her son's every move.

Qian Jun Douluo and his younger brother, Subduing Demon Douluo, remained nearby, vigilantly watching their surroundings. Every movement in the area was covered by the Qian Jun Jiang Mo brothers' Spiritual Power.

It was now the morning of the fourth day. Zhao Xiaotian's Soul Power, which had originally been unstable as he absorbed the Soul Ring, had finally stabilized. Seeing this, Bibi Dong let out a sigh of relief and lightly patted her chest.

Qian Jun Douluo also sighed. "It's finally stable!"

Subduing Demon Douluo sat on the ground as if he had survived a disaster. "I could practically imagine the look in Big Brother's eyes when he killed me!"

Two hours later, Zhao Xiaotian opened his eyes. The deep purple Soul Ring had completely fused with his Martial Soul. He stood up and summoned his Martial Soul, a deep purple Soul Ring floating beneath his feet.

Bibi Dong stepped forward and asked, "Xiaotian, how do you feel?"

Zhao Xiaotian did not respond. Instead, he unleashed his first Soul Skill: Ice Crystal. This skill created more than twenty ice spikes behind him, which swiftly shot forward. Anything struck by them would instantly freeze.

Then Zhao Xiaotian activated the second stage of his first Soul Skill, Taiji Whirlwind. Taiji Whirlwind could draw enemies in and use softness to overcome strength, killing them.

Bibi Dong was somewhat dissatisfied upon seeing the first stage of the skill, because it did not suit Zhao Xiaotian's Martial Soul characteristics at all. But once she saw the power of its second stage, she was utterly shocked.

Zhao Xiaotian withdrew his Martial Soul and said, "This skill can help me contend against enemies more than a major realm above me. Because it's an instant-defeat skill, I'm invincible among those at the same realm!"

Qian Jun Douluo praised him. "A very good skill. If properly utilized in the future, its power will be unimaginable."

After Zhao Xiaotian nodded, his mother, Bibi Dong, took him into the tent to rest. Qian Jun Douluo and Subduing Demon Douluo continued standing guard outside.

Inside the tent, Bibi Dong taught Zhao Xiaotian how to use Soul Power and Soul Skills. Zhao Xiaotian's talent for learning was also exceptional; he learned it after watching Bibi Dong demonstrate it only once.

At that moment, Zhao Xiaotian and Bibi Dong had both come dozens of meters away from the tent. They planned to find a Soul Beast to practice on.

They killed many Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, beasts that seemed to have been forced to attack them. Bibi Dong found it strange that these Soul Beasts appeared to have been compelled to come and die.

However, she did not take the matter to heart. She only cared whether her son could adapt to the powerful boost brought by his Soul Ring.

When Bibi Dong saw her son smoothly use his Soul Skill to kill Soul Beasts, she was very satisfied. She was glad her son had not disappointed her, and even happier that he had obtained his own first Soul Ring.

Moreover, this first Soul Ring surpassed the Soul Ring Age of everyone else in the world, so she was delighted and happy for her son.

Before long, the movements of the four of them attracted the attention of a gigantic purple spider. Since Bibi Dong's Martial Soul was also spider-type, her senses were especially sharp.

Just as Zhao Xiaotian killed a Thousand Year Nether Wolf, a gigantic Man Faced Demon Spider thrust its spider spear toward him. Bibi Dong flashed to Zhao Xiaotian's side and struck out with her palm, sending the Man Faced Demon Spider flying.

Bibi Dong asked worriedly, "Xiaotian, are you alright?"

Zhao Xiaotian shook his head. "I'm fine!"

As he spoke, his first Soul Ring lit up. "First Soul Skill! Ice Crystal! Taiji Whirlwind!"

Countless ice crystals shot toward the Man Faced Demon Spider. Since the Man Faced Demon Spider was extremely agile in the forest, Zhao Xiaotian's Ice Crystals failed to touch it at all.

Seeing this, Qian Jun and Jiang Mo were about to intervene when Bibi Dong stopped them. "You two should just watch from the side."

"Sixth Soul Skill! Blood Sucking Spider Thorns!"

Countless sharp spider spears stabbed toward the area around the Man Faced Demon Spider. Unable to dodge in time, the Man Faced Demon Spider was pierced by Bibi Dong's Blood Sucking Spider Thorns.

Seeing this, the Man Faced Demon Spider turned its abdomen toward Zhao Xiaotian and was about to swallow him whole when Zhao Xiaotian's eyes flashed with golden light. "You beast, do you really think there's nothing I can do against you?!"

Fiery Golden Eyes could see through all things in the world. Every movement of the Man Faced Demon Spider was clearly seen by Zhao Xiaotian, allowing him to easily evade its attack.

After its first attack failed, the Man Faced Demon Spider began launching a frenzied assault against Zhao Xiaotian. Bibi Dong withdrew her Soul Skill, wanting to see where her son's limits lay.

Zhao Xiaotian dodged back and forth along the tree trunks in the forest while the Man Faced Demon Spider chased him wildly from behind. Zhao Xiaotian's Lightning Step had already been cultivated to the pinnacle, so the eight-legged spider could not outrun someone with two legs.

"I'm done playing with you!" Zhao Xiaotian leaped onto a high tree branch and casually snapped off a branch. Then a Taiji diagram appeared behind him, slowly rotating.

Zhao Xiaotian pushed the yang attribute within his Martial Soul to its limit, and his hair instantly turned white. The Man Faced Demon Spider did not care about any of that and directly spat out three spiderwebs, trying to seal all of Zhao Xiaotian's escape routes.

Zhao Xiaotian smiled faintly. "Do you really think that means I can't deal with you? How naive!"

The Man Faced Demon Spider leaped up, opening its bloody maw as it lunged toward Zhao Xiaotian. Zhao Xiaotian raised the branch in his hand. "Come on!"

The moment his words fell, Zhao Xiaotian swung the branch in his hand through the air an unknown number of times. The Man Faced Demon Spider's body began splitting apart, especially its front two spider legs.

Bibi Dong and the two Offerings rushed over from afar and witnessed the terrifying scene. Just as Bibi Dong was about to ask something, the Man Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring appeared.

Qian Jun Douluo said, "It's actually a two-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider. As expected of a top predator among Soul Beasts."

Zhao Xiaotian jumped down from the tree and stepped on an unidentified bone. He lowered his head and picked it up, examining it again and again, but still could not tell what it was. It had somehow not been cut apart by his consecutive slashes.

Bibi Dong said in shock, "Xiaotian, this is a Soul Bone! Look at how hard it is, and it even resembles a human spine. I'm certain this Soul Bone is far from ordinary."

Zhao Xiaotian nodded. "So that's what it is."

Bibi Dong smiled. "Why don't you absorb this Soul Bone, Xiaotian?"

"No! I don't want a Soul Bone completely unrelated to my Martial Soul. Besides, this Soul Bone carries the Man Faced Demon Spider's deadly poison. I don't want to absorb it and end up poisoned myself."

"Th-then... alright. Keep this Soul Bone for yourself and give it to someone else in the future."

(Note: Zhao Xiaotian intercepted Tang San's Eight Spider Lance Soul Bone in advance. Although Zhao Xiaotian came from the world of immortal cultivation, he also has many similarities with Tang San, and the protagonist is only one month older than Tang San!)
