Then, Bibi Dong quickly calculated the distance between herself and the Thorny Hell Spider Leader.

At this point, the two were more than 100 meters apart.

This distance is beyond the effective range of Bibi Dong's Soul Skill.

Therefore, Bibi Dong immediately changed her strategy and decided to launch an attack from the air.

To avoid getting stuck in the spider webs on the ground, she cleverly used her first Soul Skill.

"First Soul Skill: Death Entanglement!"

A spider silk as thick as a finger shot out from Bibi Dong's hand and stuck to a nearby tree trunk.

Then, using the elasticity of the spider silk and her own pulling force, Bibi Dong nimbly swung among the trees.

"This is practically Spider-Man!"

Looking at Bibi Dong's agile figure, Xia Yang couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Soon, Bibi Dong swung directly above the Thorny Hell Spider Leader.

Second Soul Skill: Parasitism!

"Third Soul Skill: Death Spider Web Bind!"

Spider webs and spore powder fell from the sky.

However, the Thorny Hell Spider Leader did not panic; it let out a sharp hiss.

Then, the spider webs on the surrounding ground suddenly seemed to come alive, closing in on Bibi Dong in mid-air.

"Bibi Dong, watch your surroundings!"

"Holy Maiden, beware of traps!"

Xia Yang and Chrysanthemum Douluo gave the same reminder.

Bibi Dong hurriedly pulled on the spider silk, trying to rise and escape.

However, the Thorny Hell Spider Leader acted even faster.

In the blink of an eye, she was trapped inside a giant birdcage woven from spider silk.

"Damn it."

Bibi Dong cursed under her breath and looked down to observe the situation.

Fortunately, while she was trapped, the Thorny Hell Spider Leader was also struck by her Soul Skill.

At this moment, it is troubled by spider webs and spores and cannot take the opportunity to attack Bibi Dong.

Although the spider webs did not pose a significant threat to the massive Thorny Hell Spider Leader.

However, Bibi Dong's second Soul Skill, "Parasitism," caused it a great deal of trouble.

The Thorny Hell Spider is a Spirit Beast that does not rely on Soul Power, but rather on its hard armor to hunt.

Under the influence of the Parasitism spores, its Soul Power is being rapidly depleted.

Without the aid of Soul Power, the Thorny Hell Spider is unable to launch Long-range attack.

Just as Bibi Dong was weighing whether to ask Chrysanthemum Douluo for help, a deafening roar suddenly came from the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Roar--!"

The roar contained a terrifying pressure; even from a great distance, it made Bibi Dong's ears ring, forcing her to cover them.

Even more surprisingly, upon hearing this roar, the Thorny Hell Spider Leader on the ground went limp and trembled all over. Coupled with the massive depletion of its Soul Power, it finally collapsed to the ground, unable to hold on any longer.

"A great opportunity!"

Although she didn't understand why the Thorny Hell Spider Leader had suddenly lost its fighting ability, Bibi Dong keenly seized this opportunity.

She immediately cut the spider silk, leaped down from the air, and the eight Spider Thorn on her back pierced straight down at the Thorny Hell Spider Leader below like sharp blades.

"Pfft!"

The Spider Thorn pierced deep into the body of the Thorny Hell Spider, and dark green fluid gushed out from the wound, splashing all over Bibi Dong.

These liquids contained potent toxins, but thanks to the Death Spider Emperor Martial Soul's natural resistance to spider venom, Bibi Dong only felt slightly unwell and did not lose her fighting ability.

She endured the discomfort, twisting the Spider Thorn on her back, constantly widening the wounds on the Thorny Hell Spider's body.

Soon, due to excessive blood loss, the nine-thousand-year-old Spirit Beast finally stopped struggling and completely lost its Life Aura.

A deep purple Spirit Ring slowly rose from the corpse of the Thorny Hell Spider Leader, radiating a captivating light.

"Holy Maiden!"

Upon seeing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately unleashed his Soul Skill.

Countless sharp petals appeared out of thin air, shredding the Spider Silk Birdcage that trapped Bibi Dong to shreds.

He and Xia Yang then quickly went to Bibi Dong's side.

After a short rest and regaining some of her physical and Soul Power, Bibi Dong sat cross-legged beside the corpse of the Thorny Hell Spider Leader and began to absorb the hard-won Spirit Ring.

A deep purple light enveloped her, and Bibi Dong's aura continued to rise.

Just then, a deafening roar echoed once again from the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The oppressive force contained in that voice made the entire forest tremble.

"Teacher, what is that sound?"

Xia Yang looked warily in the direction from which the sound came.

Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression was solemn as he sharply scanned the depths of the dense forest, saying, "That's the roar of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."

A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?

Xia Yang's heart tightened, and he asked worriedly, "What if it breaks out?"

As a time traveler, Xia Yang couldn't help but recall the plots of the novels he had read in his previous life.

The protagonist always encounters unexpected events at crucial moments.

At this moment, Xia Yang truly felt that unease.

Chrysanthemum Douluo, however, remained quite calm, reassuring her, "Judging from the direction of the sound, that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast should still be deep in the forest, far away from us. It shouldn't rush out."

Hearing this, Xia Yang felt a little relieved.

Afterwards, Xia Yang stood guard beside Bibi Dong, who was absorbing the Spirit Ring.

Time passed second by second, and about half an hour had passed. Bibi Dong was still concentrating with her eyes closed, fully absorbing the Spirit Ring.

Just then, the ground suddenly began to shake violently.

The fallen leaves bounced on the ground, and the branches rustled.

"Teacher, was it an earthquake?"

Xia Yang asked hurriedly.

"It's not an earthquake!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo soared into the air, gazing into the distance, his voice suddenly turning serious.

"It's Beast Tide!"

As if confirming his judgment, countless Spirit Beast suddenly emerged from the dense forest in the distance.

These Spirit Beast surged toward their location like a flood bursting its banks.

"What to do?"

Xia Yang immediately stepped in front of Bibi Dong and looked up to ask urgently.

Chrysanthemum Douluo landed steadily, knelt on one knee, and gently pressed his right hand on the ground.

"Third Soul Skill: Demon Chrysanthemum Earth Split Spike!"

In an instant, hundreds of giant chrysanthemums burst forth from the ground, forming a perfect circular defensive circle around them within a 500-meter radius.

Each of these chrysanthemums is taller than a person, and their golden petals shimmer with an unusual light in the sunlight.

Fourth Soul Skill: Chrysanthemum Fragrance Break!

As Chrysanthemum Douluo gave a low shout, yellow mist simultaneously shot out from the tips of all the chrysanthemums.

The fog spread rapidly, but miraculously it only expanded outwards, forming a dense barrier of poisonous fog outside the defensive perimeter.

"Teacher, will this fog affect us?"

Xia Yang asked with concern.

"Rest assured."

Chrysanthemum Douluo remained calm and reassured them, "The poisonous mist I control will only drift outwards and will never penetrate the defensive perimeter."

Second Soul Skill: Golden Core Flowing Brocade!

Eighth Soul Skill: Sacred Light Chrysanthemum Shadow!

Chrysanthemum Douluo unleashed his Soul Skill one after another, and countless illusory flower shadows began to appear in the defensive circle, complementing the real chrysanthemums and decorating the area like a dream garden.

Meanwhile, the vanguard of the Beast Tide was already approaching.

Xia Yang stared intently and saw that the one charging at the forefront was a ten- Ten-thousand-Year Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent.

This usually majestic forest overlord now appeared panicked, only concerned with making its way out.
