Mo Fan's Lightning Element could also kill instantly, and with the Dark Vein's ability to foresee danger, he didn't even need to worry about ambushes from his blind spots. Any Bone-Eating Spider in close range would be killed by Mo Fan without giving them a chance to attack.
"Don't lower your guard, there might be more of them!" Mo Fan said with a frown.
The Dark Vein's ability to foresee danger made Mo Fan feel extremely uncomfortable. The entire valley was definitely not as calm as it seemed.
"Hmph, courting death!"
Mo Fan's eyes flashed as he locked onto a Color-Changing Bone-Eating Spider less than five meters away from him.
This Color-Changing Bone-Eating Spider was very patient. It had waited until Mo Fan was this close to it before releasing its killing intent. Unfortunately, this kind of ambush wasn't very effective against a Darkness Mage with his ability to foresee danger.
The Bone-Eating Spider shot forward, its front claws aiming at Mo Fan's face, as if it wanted to stab its claws into Mo Fan's eyes.
Mo Fan reached out with his left hand and grabbed at the air.
He grabbed the Bone-Eating Spider with his mind and held it firmly in mid-air for a sneak attack.
"Flame!"
Flames burst out from Mo Fan's fingers. At the same time, a huge cluster of Bone-Burning Soul Flames appeared on the Bone-Eating Spider's body!
The Bone-Eating Spider was burned to a crisp in just a few seconds, its twitching claws falling to the ground.
"This Color-Changing Bone-Eating Spider should be of a higher level," Mo Fan said to the people behind him.
Compared to the camel-colored Bone-Eating Spiders, the Color-Changing Bone-Eating Spiders were clearly stronger. In terms of speed, strength, and defense, Mo Fan would have to put in more effort to kill them. It wouldn't be as easy as killing a bunch of them with a single spell.
"Let's go, the mudslide is getting closer," Nan Jue said anxiously.
She could hear that the mudslide was obviously accelerating. This meant that there was an extremely steep area in the seven to eight kilometers of the rift valley, causing the mudslide to become even more rapid!
They had even less time, but the Bone-Eating Spiders were still blocking the path. Before they reached the slope, they would all be buried in the landslide. Even if they were lucky enough to survive, the Bone-Eating Spiders would dig them out in the end.
Thinking of this result, everyone felt their hair stand on end.
Mofan was even more decisive. His Advanced Intermediate Spells had a huge advantage in a battle like this. He did not need to activate his Advanced Star Constellation just because a Bone-Eating Spider was closing in on him, nor did he need to use weak spells because his Mana and aura were not compatible.
Their journey was relatively smooth, and the ninth division was almost at the end of Ping Valley. However, they could still hear cries of agony coming from behind them. They could even hear Gavin's furious roar.
"What the hell is your team doing? There are so many Bone-Eating Spiders along the way!" Gavin cursed.
"Watch your step, watch your step!"
The mercenaries were able to spread out slightly in the terrain. They were in a cross formation as they ran, ensuring that there was always a teammate in front of them.
However, some people suddenly disappeared as they ran. There were many empty spots in the cross-shaped formation, which made the mercenaries even more uneasy.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A strange noise came from the ground. Nanyu, who was at the back of the team, turned around and saw spider claws reaching out from the ground. The claws were like the claws of a hunter, hidden in places where the prey could not see them. The claws would close and grab the mercenaries as soon as they stepped on them.
Some of the mercenaries did not have time to summon their magic armor. The claws pierced through their ribs and abdomens. They were dragged into the ground in the blink of an eye!
"What's going on? The spiders didn't attack us when we were walking past them. Why are the mercenaries suffering now?" Zhao Manyan blurted out in astonishment when he saw many of his men being eaten.
They were the ones clearing the path, and the mercenaries were following the path they had taken, yet the Bone-Eating Spiders had allowed them to pass.
"They are selecting their targets. The spiders must have realized we aren't easy to deal with, so they are targeting the weaker mercenaries at the back," Ling Ling said.
"It's most likely because Mofan's aura is too strong. He managed to kill a lot of the Bone-Eating Spiders," Jiang Yu said.
"Mofan, come back, come back a little," Jiang Shaoxu quickly called Mofan back, who was already at the front of the group.
Mo Fan was about to scold the mercenaries when he realized they were being disconnected from one another. However, he soon realized that the mercenaries were being dragged into the ground by claws.
"Damn it, there are Bone-Eating Spiders all over the place!" Zhao Manyan cursed.
"Why do I feel like we've fallen into a spider cave? We're being wrapped in layers of webs," Jiang Yu said.
Spiders hunted in the forest, and the webs they weaved were often very thin. Some larger insects could break them if they flew over, but this did not mean that spiders could not trap large insects. Some careless insects flew over the webs and did not pay attention to the thin webs, letting the webs hang on their bodies. After flying over a few more webs, they realized that their wings were stuck, and it was difficult for them to fly. However, by the time they realized this, they had already fallen into the web trap. As long as they moved, they would be entangled by more webs … until their entire body was covered in webs, and finally, they would be exhausted and unable to move at all, hanging on a seemingly thin branch of a spider web …
Now, they were in a predicament of falling step by step into a spider's web. They were not entangled by the real spider's silk, but were constantly falling into the traps that they had set up long ago. The more panicked they were, the more danger they would be entangled in!
"Mofan, how did you notice the Color-Changing Bone-Eating Spiders? Can you warn the others?" Ai Jiangtu asked.
"It's going to be difficult, as long as they aren't hostile toward me, I won't be able to find them," Mofan said helplessly.
The Dark Vein's ability to sense danger was one of the strongest abilities Mofan had acquired, yet the Bone-Eating Spiders had stopped attacking him. If they did not show any hostility toward him, the Dark Vein's ability could no longer detect them.
It was similar to a signal. When someone was threatening Mofan, the Dark Vein would immediately pick up the signal. It would notify Mofan of the threat by increasing his heartbeat, expanding his pores, contracting his muscles, or shivering his skin. However, the Bone-Eating Spiders had stopped attacking Mofan. How was the Dark Vein going to notify him?
On top of that, the Dark Vein would also warn Mofan when there was a strong threat close to him that could kill Mofan instantly.
