Oscar: May My Fellow Daoist Die, Not This Humble One

One day ago.

When Fu Qin chased after the Titan Giant Ape and left the Shrek team.

Not long after he had departed.

A sudden change occurred!

"Careful, we're being targeted!!"

Flender's face changed drastically. His body, which had just recovered from the heavy injuries dealt by the Titan Giant Ape, instantly tensed up as a pitch-black shadow lunged out from the thicket.

It was a spider with legs spanning over ten zhang, its entire body covered in dark purple fuzz. Its eight legs, sharp as scythes and shimmering with a ghostly green toxic light, belonged to none other than a ten-thousand-year Soul-Devouring Demon Spider!

"Get back!" Zhao Wuji roared as he lunged forward, his Immovable Wisdom King body forcibly expanding in an attempt to shield the others.

But the injuries from the Titan Giant Ape's palm were too severe; as soon as he braced his internal soul power, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and his protective soul power instantly fractured.

Flender followed closely behind, his Cat-Eagle Wings unfurled, yet he could only barely restrain the Soul-Devouring Demon Spider's onslaught.

Tang San's eyes sharpened. He instantly activated his Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, his figure flickering like a phantom as he narrowly dodged a sweeping leg from the Soul-Devouring Demon Spider.

Though he carried the memories of his past life, his soul power had only just broken through level thirty. Facing the pressure of a ten-thousand-year soul beast, he still felt a tremor of fear.

But Oscar, standing beside him, was not so lucky.

The attack speed of the Soul-Devouring Demon Spider far exceeded his reaction limit. The ghostly green leg whistled through the air, piercing straight toward his chest.

The shadow of death descended instantly. Oscar's pupils constricted, leaving only one thought in his mind.

Survive!

"Bang!"

"Ah--!!!"

"Ow--!!!"

A dull thud sounded simultaneously with two screams of agony.

To everyone's horror, at the very last second, Oscar suddenly reached out his hands and grabbed Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, who were beside him, violently shoving them into the attack range of the Soul-Devouring Demon Spider!

Dai Mubai had just intended to activate his White Tiger martial soul to counterattack when he was yanked off balance by a massive force. He watched helplessly as the ghostly green leg pierced through his left waist and abdomen, blood spraying out instantly.

Ma Hongjun's fate was even more miserable. The spider leg grazed his lower abdomen, tearing away a large chunk of flesh. The excruciating pain caused him to curl up on the ground instantly, letting out a shrill, pig-like wail.

Meanwhile, using the recoil from that shove, Oscar scrambled to the side, saving his own life.

He looked at the two struggling in agony on the ground, a flicker of guilt crossing his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by the relief of survival.

It was clear that the selfish nature cultivated in the God Realm had led him to sacrifice his teammates without hesitation in the face of life and death.

"Oscar! I'll kill you!" Dai Mubai clutched his bleeding waist, his evil eyes bloodshot, his tone filled with monstrous hatred.

He never imagined that the brother he had fought alongside would betray him at such a critical moment!

Ma Hongjun lay on the ground, his lower body bleeding uncontrollably, his entire frame twitching in pain. He looked at Oscar with eyes like poisoned blades.

"Oscar... I'll screw your ancestors! Even as a ghost, I won't let you go!"

Oscar's face turned pale. His lips trembled as he tried to defend himself, but he was cut off by Flender's roar: "You bastard!"

Seeing this, Flender and Zhao Wuji were burning with rage.

They hadn't expected Oscar to be so selfish and despicable, but with the Soul-Devouring Demon Spider still lurking, they could only suppress their anger and launch an all-out attack.

Flender's Cat-Eagle Wings and Zhao Wuji's Gravity Control intertwined, forming a fierce offensive that slammed heavily into the Soul-Devouring Demon Spider.

"Puchi!"

Though the ten-thousand-year Soul-Devouring Demon Spider was formidable, it could not withstand the full-force assault of two Soul Saints.

Several of its legs were severed, dark purple blood sprayed out, and its massive body collapsed to the ground, its life force completely extinguished.

In the end, it was only a ten-thousand-year soul beast; it was no match for high-level Soul Saints like Flender and Zhao Wuji.

Just as everyone thought the crisis had passed, a second wave of stench suddenly struck.

Another Soul-Devouring Demon Spider crawled out from the depths of the dense forest. Though its size was a circle smaller than the previous one, its aura was just as sharp.

This was a three-thousand-eight-hundred-year Soul-Devouring Demon Spider!

"Damn it! How is there another one!" Zhao Wuji cursed. Having just gone through a major battle, his soul power was nearly depleted, and he could barely stand.

However, dealing with this millennium-level Soul-Devouring Demon Spider was not a difficult task.

Soon.

Flender and Zhao Wuji joined forces, beating it into a critical, dying state.

Seeing that the creature posed no further threat.

Flender's expression was grave as he looked at Tang San: "Little San, kill it quickly!"

Tang San nodded firmly, a crazed light flickering in his eyes.

Looking at the dying three-thousand-eight-hundred-year Soul-Devouring Demon Spider, a bold idea surged in his heart.

He was a reincarnated God King with the experience of absorbing soul rings beyond his limit in his past life. To him, this three-thousand-eight-hundred-year soul ring was nothing at all!

"Dean, Teacher Zhao, leave this to me." Tang San's voice carried a hint of imperceptible arrogance. "This soul beast is mine; I want it to be my third soul ring!"

Before the words had even faded, he charged toward the Soul-Devouring Demon Spider. Flender and Zhao Wuji's expressions shifted, but it was too late to stop him.

They knew full well that for a level 30 Soul Elder to absorb a 3,800-year soul ring was tantamount to suicide, but Tang San's speed was simply too fast; he had already reached the front of the Soul-Devouring Demon Spider.

"Tang San! Have you lost your mind? Come back!" Flender roared, yet he could only watch helplessly as Tang San raised his Blue Silver Grass, infused it with soul power, and began to absorb the soul ring glowing with a deep purple light.

Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun lay on the ground, watching Tang San's actions with eyes full of complex emotions.

There was jealousy, unwillingness, and even a trace of schadenfreude.

Although they were polite to Tang San on the surface, deep down, they were quite resentful of him.

In their view, everyone was currently at the same starting line, so why should Tang San be a cut above the rest?

They desperately hoped that Tang San would fail to absorb the soul ring and be reduced to a cripple by the backlash of his soul power.

Oscar walked over to the two of them with a look of hypocritical apology, conjuring a Recovery Big Sausage and a Detoxification Small Sausage in his hands.

"Mubai, Hongjun, I'm sorry. I was just acting in a moment of desperation earlier. Hurry and eat these sausages to heal your wounds."

Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun looked at the sausages he handed over, their eyes filled with hatred, yet they had no choice but to open their mouths.

The excruciating pain of their wounds made it impossible to refuse, and they could only swallow the sausages Oscar offered, their hearts burning with rage.

The energy from the sausages surged into their bodies, slightly easing the pain of their wounds, but the hatred in their hearts grew even more intense.

Oscar, you just wait. I, Dai Mubai, will definitely repay this debt a hundredfold! Dai Mubai gritted his teeth in his heart, the wound on his abdomen still throbbing with pain.

Ma Hongjun also endured the agony, having already cursed Oscar to high heaven in his mind.

He could clearly feel that his manhood had been broken; although it wasn't completely severed, it would certainly affect his future happiness.
