2932 Killing
However, when the attack talisman struck the human-headed spider, it seemed as though it had merely brushed off an itch. No sparks flew, and not a single mark marred its body.
Qiao Mu quickly glanced at Mo Lian and met his gaze. "Could it be that this creature has already attained the divine realm in its cultivation?"
Mo Lian swiftly pulled her back. "This thing is armed with concealed blades all over. First, let's activate the defensive barrier…"
Before he could finish his sentence, the Human-headed Spider lunged at them once more.
This time, it spat out a viscous mucus, and its twelve slender spider legs propelled it forward with astonishing speed. In an instant, it stood before Crown Prince Mo.
The monster's four forelimbs sliced through the air like deadly scythes, aiming for Qiao Mu's neck with a quick twist of its body.
Mo Lian pulled Qiaoqiao behind him, and a set of long poles materialized in his hands, expertly blocking the spider's lithe legs.
The spider's agile legs relentlessly attempted to pierce through, but Mo Lian raised his hand, causing several orbs of purple flames to descend upon the spider's two delicate limbs.
The long, furry legs crackled as they succumbed to the scorching power of the purple flames, causing steel-like fur to scatter in all directions.
Mo Lian had already prepared for this. When those steel-like needles were flung their way, they were met with a barrier created by the swirling purple flames.
With a firm grip, Mo Lian's Raven Moon sword emanated an inky-black radiance once more.
A grandiose sword intent manifested in the air, delivering an unparalleled speed and force as it slashed toward the furry-legged spider before him…
The human-headed spider displayed quick wit. The surging sword intent emanating from its adversary caused it to quail almost instantly, and it hastily sought retreat.
Regrettably, the creature found itself confined within a colossal cage of imposing iron bars.
Where could this human-headed spider possibly escape to?
It took a cautious step backward, only to discover that its path of retreat had been thoroughly sealed off.
In front of it loomed an overwhelming sword intent, while behind it flickered a subdued yet dazzling black flame, exuding a thickness of darkness that sent shivers to its core.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss." The creature emitted a resounding roar, its twelve slender legs trapped in a state of indecision. Every step it attempted felt fraught with difficulty and uncertainty.
Mo Lian wasted no time in offering it room for contemplation. Raising his right hand slightly, he summoned a majestic sword intent from the heavens, advancing swiftly toward the trapped creature.
"Hiss." The human-headed spider emitted a shrill cry of despair.
Qiao Mu, emboldened, emerged from behind Mo Lian and stole a glimpse of the creature. The sight disgusted her so profoundly that goosebumps seemed ready to burst forth across her skin.
This abomination continued to spew virulent green mucus from its mouth, as Mo Lian's sword intent kept its jaw forcibly sealed. Consequently, each globule of mucus dripped onto its own body due to the restricted distance.
To Qiao Mu's amusement, the human-headed spider, possessing a seemingly impenetrable exterior, was inadvertently corroding itself to the point of wailing in agony.
She couldn't help but feel a chuckle bubble up within her as she witnessed this spectacle.
Mo Lian's sword intent gradually disintegrated the creature at a pace discernible to the naked eye, inciting fear within its crimson eyes.
Initially, it harbored intentions of retreating slightly, yet the scorching black fire looming behind it sent tremors through its entire being.
Although it appeared as a faint black flame, its potency was nothing short of astounding.
