Lin Jin was excited as well. He hoped to get rid of God Lord Cover as soon as possible. Lin Jin had a feeling that the man was still hiding a lot more secrets. Lin Jin didn't want to see such an unfathomable enemy alive, especially since he was a true immortal. Lin Jin wouldn't be able to sleep well if he had a few more abilities like the spirit-devouring ghost worm.
The next step was to wait.
With three True Immortals and many Hollow Immortals around, all Lin Jin had to do was wait at the back. However, as time passed, no immortals escaped.
Lin Jin immediately frowned.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for God Lord Yan and the others to resist for a long time. No matter what methods they used, they were not a match for the Heaven Mending Spider.
He shouldn't have persisted for so long.
Just then, the immortal qilin approached Lin Jin and inquired about the situation with the large spider. In fact, the immortal qilin had been thinking about this for a while now and couldn't help but ask in detail.
Lin Jin then explained the details of the sky-mending spider. He didn't even hide the name sky-mending spider.
When the Qilin Immortal Beast heard this, its expression changed drastically.
"Mr. Lin, are you talking about the Heaven Mending Spider?"
Based on the Qilin's reaction, it was obvious that it knew about it. It was no wonder that it had such a contemplative expression earlier.
After giving it some thought, Lin Jin found it reasonable.
After all, this Qilin Immortal Beast's origins were also quite extraordinary. At its peak, its battle prowess had reached the eighth level, and it was an existence equivalent to a carefree immortal. It had also existed for a similarly long time, and perhaps it knew about the Heaven Mending Spider. They were all ferocious beasts, and they definitely had their own circles.
Sure enough, the qilin was so excited that its fingers began to tremble. "This Sky-Mending Spider has a powerful background. It … it's a divine general under the Kun Sage. When I was still young, Senior Sky-Mending Spider's name had already shaken the world."
Although Lin Jin already knew that the sky-mending spider was impressive, after hearing the qilin's words, Lin Jin realized that he had underestimated it.
Moreover, Lin Jin had overlooked one thing. The Museum of Deadly Beasts' appraisal result had actually included the comment of 'extraordinarily intelligent'.
In other words, the intelligence of the Heaven Mending Spider might not be inferior to his own.
In this way, even if he were to play some tricks in front of the Heaven Mending Spider, the Heaven Mending Spider would definitely see through it. Simply put, he couldn't beat it with brute force, nor could he scheme against it.
It was an unsolvable existence.
Thus, it was even more impossible for Divine Lord Yan to be a match for the Heaven Mending Spider.
Then why hasn't God Lord Gai come out yet?
Lin Jin and Huo Yuan exchanged glances. Then, they saw a possibility in each other's eyes. Clearly, Lin Jin and Huo Yuan were thinking of the same thing.
It wasn't just Huo Yuan. Even Reverend Miao Yan and Reverend Mystic Moon exchanged glances, clearly having the same thought as Lin Jin.
As expected, Reverend Miao Yan said, "Could it be that Immortal Lord Gu and the rest of the evil immortals have already died in the hands of the Sky-Mending Spider?"
Lin Jin and Huo Yuan thought so too. Or rather, this was the only explanation.
Divine Lord Yan was dead?
That was a reasonable outcome. After all, they were facing the legendary Heaven Mending Spider. Even a veteran True Immortal like Sir God Kai would not be able to defeat it.
It could be said that apart from escaping, there was only death.
"Let's wait a little longer. We have to ensure that nothing goes wrong." Reverend Miao Yan was worthy of being called an experienced Daoist priest. The others agreed with him.
That was to ignore everything else and continue waiting here. Because there was only one path down there. If Divine Lord Gu wanted to escape, he could only retreat from where he came from. There was no other way.
If he didn't come out, there was only one possibility. Divine Lord Gu had been killed.
This was the only reasonable explanation.
Hence, the group continued waiting. Six to ten hours later, no immortals came up from below, nor did they sense any other auras.
"Looks like that evil God Lord Gu is really dead. He died in the hands of the Sky-Mending Spider," Reverend Mystic Moon suddenly said.
She thought so too.
In fact, the safest way to verify this was to go down and investigate. But to be honest, after learning that the Sky-Mending Spider was guarding the place, no one, not even Reverend Miao Yan and Mystic Moon, dared to go down.
After all, the Sky-Mending Spider was too famous. It was Sage Kun's divine beast.
In ancient times, when the world was first created, two sages were born, Sage Qian and Sage Kun. They were a man and a woman, and their supernatural powers were peerless in the eyes of immortals.
It could be said that the Two Sages of Qian and Kun were the originators of the Immortal Dao, the true ancestors of the Immortal Sect.
In the Immortal Sect, there were countless legends about the Two Sages of Qian and Kun. Any one of them was earth-shattering. In the legend of the Sky-Mending Spider, it was Sage Kun who single-handedly turned the tide and ordered the Sky-Mending Spider to mend the gap in the sky.
Of course, it was hard to verify the authenticity of this legend, but there was definitely such a thing. Just based on these legends, the Sky-Mending Spider was already a sacred and inviolable divine beast in the eyes of many immortals. Most importantly, it was extremely powerful. If they went down and disturbed the Sky-Mending Spider, the result would not be good. They would most likely die.
After a brief discussion, everyone was inclined to not disturb the Sky-Mending Spider. Anyway, no one dared to go down.
Lin Jin dared, but he didn't say anything.
He couldn't stand out too much at a time like this. After all, even Reverend True Immortals didn't dare to go down. If he insisted on going down, it would be telling everyone that he had other tricks up his sleeve.
Even if he used the title of 'Curator', it wouldn't work. After all, Curator was just a carefree immortal in their eyes. But the Sky-Mending Spider was far more powerful than that.
Lin Jin had only just learned about this. The Sky-Mending Spider was referred to as' Lord Sky-Mending 'in many immortal books. Just from this name alone, one could tell that it was no ordinary creature. Also, judging by the Qilin's reaction, it seemed like it was worshipping the Sky-Mending Spider as its senior.
Hence, not only did Lin Jin not want to attract too much attention, but he was also feeling a little guilty.
It was better for him not to take the risk.
For safety's sake, the group stood guard here for an entire day. After such a long time, it was impossible for Lord Sky-Mending Spider to not come out unless he was already dead.
There was no point in continuing to wait. If the Sky-Mending Spider didn't come out, it meant that it didn't want to be disturbed. Hence, after some discussion, the Reverend True Immortals set up a restrictive formation at the exit.
Firstly, it could prevent others from entering without knowing anything. Secondly, if something came out from below, they could be notified immediately. In addition, if Lord Sky-Mending Spider's group came out, they could activate the killing formation. Even if they couldn't kill them, they could still plant a restriction on them. This way, no matter where Lord Sky-Mending Spider's group escaped to, Spiritual Master Miao Yan and the others could find them and hunt them down.
