Ordinary spiders had the custom of preserving the activity of their prey and leaving it for the breeding of their offspring.
For the human-faced ghost spider, which was already at the initial stage of intelligence, this habit was carried to the extreme.
Some people even discovered that someone had been eaten by the small spider until only his head and limbs were left behind. His entire person had almost turned into a skeleton, but surprisingly, he did not die.
The little spider would use the cries of its prey to set up a trap, luring the next prey into the trap.
In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the human-faced ghost spider might not be the most dangerous demon beast.
However, it was definitely the demon beast that people were most unwilling to encounter.
This was especially so when this demon beast had almost broken through to the seventh realm.
When a human cultivator reached the seventh realm, Tribulation, they would at least have the position of an elder in the sect.
The saintess candidate of the Jade Fairy Mountain only had the strength of an average third rank, which was nothing in front of the human-faced ghost spider.
“We must not fall into the hands of the human-faced ghost spider.”
“Sisters, before we came here, we had already prepared for the worst. We just didn’t expect that we would suffer such a loss before we even entered the Heavenly Demon Sect.”
“I’m sure everyone knows what will happen if we fall into the hands of the human-faced ghost spider.”
“Don’t drag senior sister Bai Ling down. If we continue to hesitate, none of us will be able to escape.”
A slightly stronger girl of the fourth rank in the crowd took out a dagger from her bosom and placed it across her neck as she spoke loudly.
Although she spoke righteously, Alan could still hear a trace of fear in her voice.
After all, she was still a child.
According to the lifespan of a monk, they were indeed much longer than ordinary people.
However, just like how Alan went into seclusion for a thousand years, these girls spent most of their time in cultivation.
If one used pure mental calculation, their age was equivalent to their appearance.
“No!
“I can do it. As long as I use the forbidden technique one more time, I will definitely find his weakness and kill him.”
Bai Ling hurriedly came out to stop her. Her pupils were suffused with a golden luster, as if a whirlpool had formed.
“Senior sister, if you use any more forbidden techniques, you’ll go blind.”
The girl felt the change in Bai Ling’s aura. She tightened the dagger in her hand, and a bright red color instantly flowed out of her snow-white neck.
The Jade Fairy Mountain specialized in eye techniques and illusions, and both required the cooperation of the eyes.
If one’s cultivation was insufficient, forcefully using a technique that was beyond one’s level and not mastered would cause a great burden on the eyes.
Once one’s eyes were injured, one’s cultivation level would be reduced by at least half.
These girls were all orphans adopted by Water Moon Fairy when she was traveling.
Bai Ling was the oldest and the most talented.
She had always treated them as her own younger sisters.
Although there was a tradition of fighting for saintesses on the Jade Fairy Mountain, it seemed like everyone was competing.
However, these girls were not old enough to be scheming against each other.
Everyone treated each other as family.
In order to protect her sisters behind her, Bai Ling was even prepared to die with her eyes bulging.
“Senior sister, don’t.”
“Senior sister, hurry up and leave. Don’t bother about us anymore.”
“Senior sister, if you don’t leave now, I’m going to cut myself. You know that I’m most afraid of pain.”
The girls behind her also began to persuade Bai Ling to leave.
They were only at the third level of cultivation. It was basically impossible for them to survive alone in this dangerous Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Their only chance was to be discovered by the Heavenly Demon Sect and brought into the sect as disciples.
Water Moon Fairy’s original plan was to separate everyone and pretend to be the young ladies of the family who went out to train, but was abducted by the Heavenly Demon Sect.
After all, most of the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect came from this way.
Who knew that they would encounter a peak level six great demon beast just outside?
The disciples who had been secretly protecting them had already died in battle.
The girls were running as they walked. It was not easy for them to get here.
In the end, they were caught up by the human-faced ghost spider.
As this was not the first time a battle had taken place here, Alan did not see the people who were protecting them after he came over.
He even secretly cursed the Water Moon Fairy for being so heartless.
The water children cried like birds, and the more they tried to persuade Bai Ling, the more unwilling they were to leave.
When they knew that the level four girl had taken out her dagger, the others also thought of using their deaths to show their resolve.
As long as they died, they would not implicate their senior sister.
Although the girls had made up their minds, they could not help but feel afraid.
Hearing the cries of pain behind them, Bai Ling was finally distracted.
Worried, she turned around to take a look.
It was this one glance that gave the human-faced ghost spider a chance.
The human-faced ghost spider and Bai Ling had exchanged blows more than once. It was also very wary of the sharp dagger in Bai Ling’s hand.
Although Bai Ling was not his opponent, the backlash of dying was enough to injure him.
Even for demonic beasts, in a place like the Hundred Thousand Mountains, it was very dangerous to be injured.
He had only come out to hunt, not to risk his life.
Of course, he could not give up on the prey that he had obtained.
As long as he used up a little more energy, when the prey’s stamina and energy were exhausted, he could easily take them down with a flip of his hand.
There was no need to take the risk of being injured and fight head-on.
However, when Bai Ling could not help but turn her head back, she finally revealed a flaw.
The human-faced ghost spider let out a hoarse roar, as if a rusty gate had been forcefully pulled open by a huge force, causing one’s eardrums to feel as uncomfortable as if a layer of wet moss had grown out after hearing it.
Its buttocks swelled up high, and a stream of sticky pus spurted out.
Like an experienced fisherman, the pus spun at high speed and automatically unfolded under the effect of centrifugal force.
It turned into a large net with a diameter of more than five meters.
The human-faced ghost spider followed the net closely. Two fangs as thick as forearms stretched out and bit Bai Ling’s neck.
Dark green venom gushed out in large waves.
Just the smell alone made people feel light-headed, as if they were about to pass out.
They could not wait any longer.
Alan slipped and pretended to fall from the tree branch.
Ahhh…
He screamed all the way and landed on the human-faced ghost spider’s thick and full stomach.
Poof!
Like a bag full of water, it was smashed by a heavy object.
The juice was spilled all over Bai Ling’s body and face.
“Ah!!!!”
The human-faced ghost spider let out an ear-piercing scream, which hurt Bai Ling’s ears.
Alan even suspected that if Bai Ling had used this secret skill earlier, she would have been able to defeat the human-faced ghost spider without his help.
“Ouch, help!”
Alan lay sprawled on the human-faced ghost spider’s outstretched hand. His body was covered in mucus, and he was struggling non-stop.
The huge body of the spider was directly smashed through.
At this moment, it was like a huge bathtub. Every time Alan moved inside, the spider would let out an ear-piercing scream.
Quack, Quack!
The spider crawled on the ground unwillingly.
Insect-type demon beasts all had powerful life forms. Even if their heads were chopped off, they could still struggle for a long time before dying.
The instant Alan landed, a stream of demonic energy passed through the soles of his feet and instantly corroded all the nervous system’s organs in the ghost spider’s body.
Although the human-faced ghost spider appeared to be in good condition, it was like a car with a broken internal circuit. No matter how hard it tried, it could not start.
The eight sharp long legs could only play by themselves and were not a threat at all.
