Chapter 382: Assisting the Demon Emperor
Chapter 382: Assisting the Demon Emperor
At the top of the cliff overlooking the Bright Thunder Pool, Lingxi Zhenren took out an array plate in her hand, a gift from her junior brother Tong Shidi for her birthday.
Looking at the array plate, her eyes welled up with tears once more.
She rubbed her eyes vigorously, dispelling stray thoughts, and hesitated about whether to take advantage of the lion's absence to set up the array and make some preparations.
Lingxi Zhenren had never imagined that she would become so restrained in front of a small demon whose cultivation was far inferior to hers.
If it were in the past, she would have already struck out with a palm strike.
But it was precisely because of that palm strike that an irreversible outcome had occurred.
Just as her mind wandered.
Suddenly, she heard a mocking voice from behind.
"Who are you waiting for?"
"..."
Lingxi Zhenren's heart skipped a beat, and she turned around in fear, only to see an incredibly majestic figure.
Those golden, dazzling eyes were calmly staring at her.
And beside this lion, a huge, dark spider with countless eyes was also staring at her, blocking off all her escape routes.
The next moment, the spider's spear-like arm shot out like a lance, shattering the array plate in her hand.
The Dark Nether Spider Sovereign glanced at Shen Yi with dissatisfaction.
This demon beast, with its strong demonic nature, was as foolish as the Mother Tiger, as if they were cast from the same mold.
It could have easily launched a sneak attack.
But before taking action, it had to make some noise, as if it couldn't show off its might without doing so.
Forget it...
The Dark Nether Spider Sovereign slowly raised its body. At least before revealing itself, it had already cautiously scanned the surroundings, confirming that there were no ambushes.
Looking at Lingxi Zhenren's dirty face, her genuine fear, and even more pitiful state than what the Golden-Winged Demon Sovereign had described, the Dark Nether Spider Sovereign felt that a sneak attack wouldn't make much difference.
"Why?"
Lingxi Zhenren muttered to herself, almost on the verge of collapse.
She had been cautious enough and hadn't done anything wrong... Why were there still problems?
Could these demons really be so cunning and calculating?
Did they even foresee that she wouldn't escape the Thousand Demons Cave?
"I'll fight you all!"
With a sobbing voice, she let out a mournful roar and waved her hand, unleashing two heavy spiritual pressures.
At that moment.
Shen Yi didn't hesitate and quickly dodged, moving far away.
"..."
Seeing this, the Dark Nether Spider Sovereign felt a surge of frustration.
Although it knew that the lion couldn't do much against a Profound Spirit Perfection cultivator, this decisive reaction still caught it off guard.
After this matter was over, it would definitely teach this lion what the wrath of a Demon Emperor meant.
In an instant, the two spiritual pressures slammed into the spider, knocking it back more than ten zhang.
Lingxi Zhenren frantically rushed forward.
The incantations in her hands changed unpredictably.
The surrounding spiritual energy instantly boiled, transforming into streaks of energy like shooting stars, each as large as a mountain, and they all exploded on the spider!
"I'll kill you! I'll kill all of you!"
Tears streamed down Lingxi Zhenren's face, her screams becoming more piercing, while the Dark Nether Spider Sovereign was left bewildered, continuously being knocked back by the blasts of energy.
It didn't understand why Lingxi was acting like a frenzied beast, going crazy without even being touched.
Lingxi Zhenren condensed another spirit seal.
The Dark Nether Spider Sovereign's expression finally changed, becoming slightly more solemn, but it wasn't afraid.
Suddenly, it spat out a strand of glowing spider silk, which shot out and struck Lingxi's shoulder.
This hasty attack naturally couldn't cause much harm to a Profound Spirit Perfection cultivator.
But the bizarre thing was that Lingxi Zhenren's incantation was not wrong, but the spiritual energy that had gathered in an instant inexplicably dissipated.
"Flipping Clouds and Treading Seas Seal?"
The Dark Nether Spider Emperor let out a cold laugh, and its spider arm stabbed out again, piercing Lingxi's shoulder with a 'puchi' sound.
It couldn't learn the technique, but it was merely hindered by its demonic body.
It probably understood the intricacies of this seal technique better than Lingxi Zhenren.
"Ah..."
Lingxi cried out again, sobbing as she finished the second incantation.
Her palm, like a spiritual blade, snapped off the spider's leg with a 'kacha' sound.
Then, with a series of clicks and clacks, she pulled the spider leg out of her body!
"...
A hint of strangeness appeared in Shen Yi's eyes.
He had never seen such a cultivator before, with a fragile mind but still eager for a fight.
Cry when she needed to cry, and fight when she needed to fight.
Having roughly assessed the cultivator's strength, Shen Yi quietly extended his palm.
He didn't bring the Spider Emperor here just to kill a Wutong Mountain disciple.
The reason he didn't discuss it with that woman beforehand was simply because Shen Yi never trusted strangers, and he preferred to control the situation himself.
Killing the Spider Emperor today would be the best outcome, but if he couldn't kill it, at least he wanted the Spider Emperor to drive the woman away.
Of course, if the woman couldn't even manage to escape, he wouldn't mind lending a helping hand.
In an instant, a strand of black mist rose from the ground and connected with Shen Yi's fingertip.
"Hiss!"
The Dark Nether Spider Emperor, injured, hurriedly retracted its long leg.
It looked on with some surprise.
Lingxi's reaction at this moment seemed quite different from what the Golden-Winged Demon Sovereign had described.
If it were any other Demon Sovereign, they would have suffered some losses today.
Fortunately, it was the Demon Sovereign of the Eighth Cavern.
One could say that the cultivation techniques of Wutong Mountain mostly came from the Repository of Secrets.
"Frost Chill Sever Sky Technique!"
Lingxi Zhenren backed away, and her palms suddenly swept out.
Five ice pillars connecting heaven and earth rose from nothingness, intending to seal the Spider Emperor inside.
"Hiss."
The Dark Nether Spider Emperor calmly retreated in one direction.
It seemed to have anticipated every ice pillar's attack and dodged them all.
"Huff!"
Lingxi Zhenren panted heavily, suddenly feeling utterly hopeless.
It was as if the opponent knew all her moves.
As long as she could hold out until the surrounding spiritual energy was depleted, it would be her moment of demise.
Just then, her face suddenly changed, and the Dark Nether Spider Emperor paused for a moment.
It seemed to have hit an invisible wall, and in an instant, the raging black mist rose like flames.
"Iron Sketch Silver Hook!"
Before the Dark Nether Spider Emperor's angry roar could dissipate, the last sharp ice pillar pierced its abdomen, sending it flying into the sky.
"There's an ambush! You stupid pig, come and help me!"
The Spider Emperor shattered the ice pillar inside its body and fell heavily to the ground, its body covered in frost.
In a panic, it roared at the lion.
"...
Lingxi subconsciously looked at the lion, her eyes filled with apprehension.
She hadn't forgotten that Wutong Mountain had suffered many losses at the hands of the lion.
When she saw the lion take a step forward, her entire body trembled.
"Good."
Shen Yi looked down from above, his golden eyes suddenly becoming unusually calm.
As his words fell,
A massive celestial brush appeared.
However, compared to the last time, the thick ink it drew this time was a dazzling scarlet red.
