The Frozen Passage

When they heard Spider God's words, everyone let out a long breath of relief, still deeply shaken.

Although the Spider Demons' innate talents were far inferior to those of Shi Ao, Tian Xin, and the others, no one dared underestimate them. After all, the Death Nether Wolf Spider Race was most formidable for its Death Nether Qi and venom. The Death Nether Qi and venom controlled by a Great Perfection Spirit Division Stage Death Nether Wolf Spider could probably cripple the cultivation of an early Body Integration Realm cultivator. After being poisoned, even retaining Great Perfection Spirit Division Stage cultivation would be quite an accomplishment.

More importantly, few people who fought the Death Nether Wolf Spider Race ever lived to tell the tale. After all, the Death Nether Wolf Spider's Death Nether Qi had few counters besides Buddhist Spiritual Energy.

Seeing the astonishment on everyone's faces, Spider God and Zhu Tian were immensely pleased with themselves. They seemed to picture their younger brother making a name for himself at this year's Cultivator Assembly.

"Heh heh, now that Big Brother knows how to awaken his Innate Spiritual Power," Zhu Tian said with a smug grin. Seeing everyone turn their eyes toward him, he grew even more excited. "If Big Brother passes this experience on to me, with my talent, I'll surely awaken my Innate Spiritual Power within a hundred years. That'll take my strength to a whole new level. By then, even Fairy Tian Xin probably won't be able to defeat me."

At that, everyone but Shi Ao, who knew how formidable Tian Xin was, nodded. Clearly, they agreed with Zhu Tian. Shi Ao's expression darkened. He didn't like hearing the woman he cared for belittled, but given his relationship with the Death Nether Wolf Spider Race, he couldn't say anything.
