Swatting the Cave Demon Spider to Death! Spiritual Power Breaks Through to the Spirit Sea Realm!

Faced with this encirclement, Ye Yang thought quickly.

After his Soul Power reached ten thousand years, he could permanently copy one additional Soul Skill for every ten thousand years he gained.

Now, he had already reached sixty thousand years.

He could copy six Soul Skills.

Even so, he had still copied only one: Ah Yin's Blue Silver Overlord Spear.

He could copy five more Soul Skills.

If he copied the Cave Demon Spider's Spider Web Prison now, he could definitely solve the problem with ease.

Besides, the skill really was a powerful restraining skill.

It would work even better in combination with the Blue Silver Overlord Spear.

But Ye Yang hesitated.

He wanted to obtain the Cave Demon Spider's Soul Bone!

The thirty-thousand-year Cave Demon Spider had a powerful bloodline and cultivation, and the chance of it producing a Soul Bone might be one in ten.

And if he kept provoking it, he could increase those odds.

If he copied its Soul Skill and then obtained its Soul Bone, that would be redundant and waste one of his chances to copy a skill.

"Forget it. I'll stick to the original plan and get the Soul Bone!"

Ye Yang gritted his teeth and took the gamble!

In any case, copying a Cave Demon Spider's skill wasn't all that difficult.

There had to be other Cave Demon Spiders in the Star Dou Great Forest. They were considerably more numerous than Man Faced Demon Spiders.

Having made up his mind, Ye Yang hesitated no longer.

He clenched his left hand, and five leaves came together to form a great spear.

At the same time, silver light flashed, turning it into a long silver spear!

Blue Silver Overlord Spear!

This was the Soul Skill he had copied from Ah Yin, and he could use it with any one of his leaves.

He could also use several leaves. That wouldn't strengthen its attack, but it would make it more durable.

Clang!

The enormous Blue Silver Overlord Spear Soul Skill collided with the Cave Demon Spider's last right shovel-leg!

There was only one bloody hole in this right shovel-leg, and its attack and defense were still strong.

But under the precise control of Ye Yang's powerful Spiritual Power, the enormous Blue Silver Overlord Spear stabbed straight into that same bloody hole!

Crack!

The bloody hole widened in an instant, splitting open!

Then the Cave Demon Spider's shovel-shaped front leg was forcibly pierced through!

It snapped!

Only three legs remained.

The Cave Demon Spider lay on the ground, screaming, wailing, and roaring.

But it was all to no avail.

Ye Yang turned the Blue Silver Overlord Spear back into five leaves instead of killing it outright.

Instead, he used the five leaves to lash it relentlessly, striking every part of its body.

The attacks weren't very strong, nor were they particularly painful.

But they filled the Cave Demon Spider with endless fear, as well as anger, frustration, and unwillingness.

Ye Yang recalled a short film he had once seen.

One day, someone had suddenly tapped the protagonist on the back of the head with a small spoon.

He had thought it was a prank and had been so angry he wanted to curse.

But when he looked back, he saw a terrifying man with a pale face and dark circles under his eyes, and fled in fright.

He ran for a full twelve years!

Whatever he did, he would be tapped with the spoon.

After being tapped for twelve whole years, he died.

"Ah, sorry about this, little spider."

"The weak are prey to the strong. There's no right or wrong in it."

Ye Yang sighed inwardly.

The Cave Demon Spider had been just as happy when it ambushed and killed the ten-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider with a single blow.

It should also accept being hunted down by someone stronger.

Just as Ye Yang himself was prepared to be hunted down by stronger Soul Beasts or humans.

If death really came, he would feel neither resentment nor regret.

When you roam the jianghu, how can you never get cut?

As Ye Yang went on swatting the Cave Demon Spider, he divided his attention among several tasks. Leaves from all over his body stretched out, forming dozens of long leaves.

The front half of each leaf curled into a lump, forming a leaf hammer.

He swung them in full circles, striking again and again at the legs of the two Man Faced Demon Spiders stabbing down from above.

Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer.

It was just like last year, when he had used this move against Tang Hao's strongest Martial Soul Avatar, the Clear Sky Hammer.

His legs and body lost their leaves, exposing his "internal organs."

In truth, those were just a huge mass of roots and grass stalks-Ye Yang's true body.

He grew shorter, as if crouching on the ground, and his grass roots entered the soil.

If he stayed away from the earth for too long, Ye Yang would grow tired, especially under the blazing sun.

So he could only maintain his "scarecrow" state for half a day.

After that, he needed to put down roots in the soil to rest and replenish his water.

Clanging and cracking rang out without cease.

Ye Yang hammered the Cave Demon Spider and the Man Faced Demon Spiders at the same time.

Whenever cracks appeared in his leaf hammers, he quickly replenished them with Soul Power and restored them.

At sixty thousand years, Ye Yang's leaves were far stronger than they had been when he fought Tang Hao last year.

Finally, a full hour passed.

The Cave Demon Spider was the first to die, full of hatred.

A peculiar gray-black Soul Ring appeared, hovering above its head.

Ye Yang could vaguely make out a small Cave Demon Spider roaring in anger inside the gray-black Soul Ring.

That was its soul.

[Ding! Killed a thirty-thousand-year Cave Demon Spider. Karma Value with Tang San +2. Reward: 60,000 points]

Hmm?

Were the points awarded equal to the Karma Value multiplied by its age?

Ye Yang had no time to think further. A mass of roots spread out in an instant, wrapping around the Cave Demon Spider's body.

"System, spend 150,000 points to strengthen my Devouring power fivefold!"

Feeling somewhat excited and expectant, Ye Yang hurriedly addressed the system.

[Ding! Spent 150,000 points to strengthen Devouring fivefold. Host devours the target at six times the speed and efficiency]

No sooner had the system's voice fallen than it sounded again.

[Ding! Congratulations, host. Soul Power gained: +18+18+18+...]

[Ding! Congratulations, host. Spiritual Power gained: +6+6+6+6...]

[Ding! Congratulations, host. Evolution Value gained: +0.1+0.1+0.1...]

"It's here!"

His Soul Power was increasing rapidly, but Ye Yang wasn't particularly delighted.

Hearing about the Spiritual Power and Evolution Value, however, immediately filled him with excitement.

With his current bloodline level, obtaining Evolution Value was simply too difficult.

The thirty-thousand-year Cave Demon Spider truly lived up to its name!

[Ding! Congratulations, host. Spirit Value has surpassed 500 points and entered the Spirit Sea Realm. Reward: 50,000 points]

Before long, Ye Yang heard another system notification and let out a long breath inwardly.

What a relief!

He had finally broken through.

Spirit Sea Realm-this was Soul Power that only human Titled Douluo possessed.

Soul Beasts had to reach at least a hundred thousand years before they had Spiritual Power of this level.

It was extremely rare.

With Spirit Sea Realm Spiritual Power, Ye Yang could conceal his overwhelming Soul Beast presence.

Of course, as long as he hadn't taken human form, a Titled Douluo might still be able to see through him.

But at least he wouldn't attract so much attention.

As long as he didn't encounter a Titled Douluo at close range, it shouldn't be much of a problem.

Hahaha, I can finally leave the Star Dou Great Forest!

Ye Yang laughed inwardly.

[Ding! Congratulations, host. Soul Power has reached seventy thousand years]
