Under the gaze of the Star-Gazing Eyes, Dongfang Yao saw that Tang San was engaged in a fierce battle.
Upon closer inspection, what had driven him to the brink of despair was none other than a ferocious human-faced demon spider!
Its carapace gleamed with a chilling light, and its eight compound eyes radiated a bloodthirsty ferocity.
'He actually ran into the Human-Faced Demon Spider! And judging by its legs, it has two thousand years of cultivation! His luck is just too good!'
'But can he absorb it?'
'By the way, he cultivated the Mysterious Heaven Technique, which gives him an extraordinary physique.'
In the blink of an eye, Tang San was locked in fierce combat with the Human-Faced Demon Spider, bound and restricted by Blue Silver Grass, while hidden weapons were launched and thrown.
He narrowly dodged the deadly piercings of the spider legs, each roll leaving him in a rather disheveled state.
But it was obvious that he was just hiding his true strength and hadn't used his full power.
More importantly, Tang San always kept his left hand hidden behind his back, tightly gripping an inconspicuous little black hammer.
Every time the spider revealed the slightest flaw, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, but he did not make a move.
It seems they are waiting for the perfect moment.
Meanwhile, the distance between Dongfang Yao and Tang San was visibly shrinking.
"Yao'er, Tang San is a very dangerous person. Try to have as little contact with him as possible, and never try to kill him. Remember that!"
Dongfang Jing's warning rang in her mind like a warning bell.
Under the slightly puzzled gazes of the guards, the Star Sword quietly appeared in her delicate hand.
She glanced back and her gaze locked precisely on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Master in the group.
The support Soul Master understood immediately, chanted incantations, and applied five amplification Soul Skills to Dongfang Yao.
Feeling the surging soul power within her body, the girl condensed it, and the third soul ring that coiled around her suddenly shone with purple light.
'Tang San, I don't know why my brother is targeting you like this.'
'But if we let you grow stronger, you will surely become an obstacle in your brother's path!'
The guards in the shadows heard a sharp "whoosh!" as they cut through the air.
Dongfang Yao instantly transformed into a golden streak of light that tore through the air, disappearing from their sight.
On the other side, Tang San was already at his limit, his soul power almost exhausted.
Just as the human-faced spider lowered its guard, thinking it had successfully captured its prey.
The moment his vulnerable lower abdomen was completely exposed as he lunged forward to bite!
Tang San's eyes sharpened as he channeled his soul power into his left arm.
He planned to use the small hammer to smash the human-faced spider away, and then shoot the Zhuge Crossbow to kill it in one shot!
But just as he channeled his soul power, intending to unleash the Clear Sky Hammer...
Behind the human-faced spider, a blinding golden light suddenly shone!
A seven-foot-long light sword, imbued with the power of stars, descended with a devastating force capable of slicing through anything!
"Clang! Crack!"
Dongfang Yao's third soul skill, "Starry Sky Rift Slash," slammed into the Demon Spider's hard, metallic-looking carapace!
The lightsaber rubbed violently against the armor, sending up a string of blinding sparks. The greatsword was momentarily stopped by the terrifying hardness of the armor!
But then came an overwhelming and crushing defeat!
A tearing sound rang out, like a hot knife cutting through butter.
The spider's enormous body split in two with a snap!
The two halves of the body crashed to the ground with a thud, raising a cloud of dust.
The eight severed spider legs were still twitching slightly due to nerve reflexes, and venomous purple blood gushed out, staining the surrounding land.
Dongfang Yao was slightly out of breath, her chest heaving, and the bulging veins on her hands, which were gripping the sword hilt tightly, slowly subsided.
She poured nearly 80% of her soul power into this sword strike, just to ensure that nothing went wrong.
Although I am a little tired.
The result was acceptable.
Hehe~
Goal achieved!
A barely perceptible curve appeared at the corner of her lips.
"Tang San, are you alright?" Dongfang Yao immediately adopted a concerned and anxious expression, her gaze quickly scanning his slightly disheveled appearance.
Tang San ignored him, his gaze fixed on the spider's corpse, which had been split in two on the ground.
And above the corpse floated a deep, alluring, yet untouchable purple soul ring.
The light of that spirit ring was incredibly dazzling in his eyes at that moment.
A surge of pent-up anger rushed to his throat, and he, whose internal organs were already injured, could no longer suppress it.
He coughed up a mouthful of dark red stagnant blood.
His violent coughing caused his body to hunch slightly.
"You!" He looked up abruptly, his eyes filled with disbelief and anger, his trembling finger pointing directly at Dongfang Yao.
The girl's face was filled with innocence and panic, her eyes crystal clear: "I...I was worried something would happen to you! In a moment of panic, I used all my strength. Did I...do something wrong?"
His voice carried just the right amount of self-reproach and a hint of grievance.
Tang San felt an inexplicable anger rush to his head, his face instantly turning a deep liver color, and the veins on his neck bulging.
Don't you know in your heart whether you did something wrong or not?
However, the other party was "worried about their own safety" which is why they "helped with all their might".
Tang San's chest heaved violently. He thought and thought, but he just couldn't find a reason to rebuke the other party with a clear conscience.
final,
He could only manage to squeeze out two words through his clenched teeth: "Thank you."
Hey~ See that? They should thank us!
Dongfang Yao chuckled inwardly, but her face remained sincere: "You're welcome! I'll definitely help you find a more suitable soul beast later. Look at this Human-Faced Demon Spider, it's already two thousand years old. If you forcibly absorb it, wouldn't you explode and die!"
Upon hearing this, Tang San suppressed his anger and carefully examined the corpse on the ground.
I hadn't had a chance to look closely during the intense fight, but now that I'm taking a closer look, the length of these spider legs is indeed far beyond what I expected.
However, he firmly believed in his heart.
With the wondrous power of the Mysterious Heaven Skill and his own unwavering will, he will surely be able to withstand the impact of this soul ring that exceeds the limit of years!
Unfortunately, the soul beast is dead, the soul ring is dissipating, and everything is already set in stone.
He could only watch helplessly as the precious purple halo gradually dimmed and dissipated, his eyes filled with regret and resentment.
"No!" Tang San suddenly realized that this was not the time to regret his spirit ring!
Xiao Wu!
He instinctively reached out, wanting to grab Dongfang Yao's shoulders and shake her to press her for answers.
However, the girl reacted faster, deftly taking a half-step back.
Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, her eyes filled with disdain: "Just talk, why are you getting physical?"
Tang San had no time for such details at that moment, and urgently asked, "Dongfang Yao! Why are you alone? Where's Xiao Wu? How is Xiao Wu?"
"Calm down!" Dongfang Yao immediately stopped him, her tone resolute. "Xiao Wu is fine! She's safe! She's not injured!"
Hearing this unequivocal guarantee, Tang San breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves relaxed slightly.
But a question immediately arose in his mind: "Where is she? Why didn't she come back with you?"
Dongfang Yao quickly and eloquently delivered her prepared explanation, recounting how the Titan Giant Ape Erming knew Dongfang Jing, and so on.
"I don't know why the Titan Giant Ape captured Xiao Wu, but I swear on my martial soul that she will never be harmed."
Hearing Dongfang Yao's confident words, Tang San finally calmed down a bit and stopped acting like a headless fly.
"But why would a 100,000-year-old soul beast specifically target Xiao Wu? This is too strange."
Before they could finish speaking, a sharp, shrill cry from a young girl, filled with shock and anger, reached their ears.
"No—! Grandpa! My Demon Spider!!"
