Devouring!

Tang San fell silent.

He had never heard that an External Soul Bone could devour other Soul Beasts. Not even his teacher, known as a master of theory, had ever told him such a thing.

In his understanding, an External Soul Bone was merely a special type of Soul Bone attached to a Soul Master's body, evolving alongside its owner's growth. Though it possessed an extremely high degree of autonomy, he had never heard of any External Soul Bone actively "feeding."

Yet the information conveyed by the Eight Spider Lances was crystal clear. That craving truly existed.

After a brief silence, Tang San chose to trust his Soul Bone.

He took a deep breath and controlled the Eight Spider Lances, aiming them at the nearly lifeless Man Faced Demon Spider beneath his feet before driving them straight down.

The Eight Spider Lances were already incomparably sharp, and Liu Erlong's Dragon Flame had softened the Man Faced Demon Spider's carapace considerably. Its once impregnable defenses were now barely a tenth as strong.

The Eight Spider Lances pierced its carapace almost instantly. The front halves of all eight lances sank completely into its body, meeting virtually no resistance, as easily as red-hot iron skewers piercing solidified grease.

In an instant, red and white radiance rose from Tang San's body, enveloping both him and the Man Faced Demon Spider beneath him in an eerie glow.

The light was not dazzling, yet it carried a palpitating force of attraction.

The instant the Eight Spider Lances pierced the Man Faced Demon Spider's body, the creature shuddered violently.

Then, it stopped struggling and began to tremble rapidly.

Every muscle and every drop of blood vibrated violently in some unseen manner.

At that moment, the Eight Spider Lances embedded in its body turned an eerie deathly white.
