Although the crescent moon was hanging in the sky, emitting a desolate moonlight, more than half of the stars in the sky were covered by dark clouds.
The starlight was covered by the dark clouds, causing the starlight that fell on Ling Dong's body to decrease by more than half. Even Ling Dong, who was sitting cross-legged in cultivation, felt uncomfortable!
Even though the Star Subduing Disk was spontaneously rotating in his sea of consciousness, gathering starlight for Ling Dong, his cultivation speed was still reduced by nearly half. This made Ling Dong depressed and worried at the same time. His cultivation speed was unexpectedly affected by the cloudy weather. This kind of cultivation speed was really too slow!
Ah, Ling Dong, who was enduring the tortoise-like cultivation speed, suddenly felt his ears tremble!
Ling Dong heard an extremely low-pitched mournful howl. The sound was very frightening, a bit like the cry of a baby who had cried himself hoarse. The moment the sound entered his ears, Ling Dong felt his mind become chaotic!
Stopping his cultivation, Ling Dong stood up and looked through the bushes beside him, looking for the source of the sound. Even though the starlight was obscured and only the crescent moon was visible, for a late stage Xiantian realm martial artist, as long as there was a trace of light, his eyesight could reach far away!
Under the moonlight, two eight-legged monsters, each as tall as a person and half as wide as a person, with slender golden fur covering their legs, were rushing side by side towards the mountainside. Those slender legs covered with golden fur, each time they moved forward, they would cross nearly ten meters. Every time they moved, they would let out a low howl, as if they were crying.
The strangest thing was that the eight-legged monsters had a human face that looked like an adult's. Especially when they were howling, the human face would move strangely, revealing a miserable expression. It had no nose, no eyebrows, just like a living monster!
Ling Dong's face became dignified. The moment his hand sank, the mysterious black sword had already jumped into his hand, and a faint golden light flowed over the black sword!
In his previous life, Ling Dong had wandered the world. For most of his life, if he wasn't cultivating in seclusion deep in the mountains, he was escaping from pursuers deep in the mountains. Therefore, his understanding of demonic beasts was extremely strong! Ling Dong had seen many Demonic Beasts that were not recorded in detail in the Tian Gang Continent's Demonic Beast Records and were only mentioned by name!
The two eight-legged golden-furred monsters running through the valley were called Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders!
The Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider was a kind of abnormally savage demonic beast. Its strength was usually at the middle stage of the Earth Emanations Realm. Depending on how long it had lived, its strength would range from the fourth grade to the sixth grade of the Earth Emanations Realm.
This type of Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider feasted on human brains and was extremely vicious. Moreover, because of its incomparably agile movements and its eight legs, its attacks were abnormally strange, causing martial artists to have an incomparable headache! When martial artists of the same middle stage of the Earth Fiend Realm encountered him, they could only turn around and avoid him! If it was not necessary, even late-stage Earth Fiend Realm martial artists would not be willing to come into contact with this thing!
But the most famous thing about this Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider was not its ferocious reputation, but because the entire body of the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider was a treasure!
The eight legs of the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider were all the best concealed weapon and crossbow arrow materials. The natural lethal poison attached on them was enough to give Heavenly Dipper Realm powerhouses a headache. The Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider's blood was an important material to draw a special talisman.
But the most famous was the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider's demonic core. It was the main ingredient of the Purpleheart Soul Breaking Pill that Peak Earth Fiend Realm martial artists could not get even with ten thousand gold!
And the Purpleheart Soul Breaking Pill might have the word 'break', but it was a medicinal pill that could increase the chances of opening the divine soul sea of consciousness by 40% when a Peak Earth Fiend Realm martial artist broke through to the Heavenly Dipper Realm! And breaking through to the Heavenly Dipper Realm, the most important thing was to open the divine soul sea!
It could be said that every Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider's demonic core obtained represented the birth of a Heavenly Dipper Realm powerhouse! Furthermore, the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider's numbers were extremely scarce. Once they appeared, they moved in pairs and moved swiftly. They were extremely hard to hunt! Therefore, the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider's demonic core was priceless. Once it appeared in an auction house, it would be auctioned for a sky-high price!
"A Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider actually appeared in this place?" Exclaiming in surprise, Ling Dong's body crouched even lower! Although this Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider was priceless, the current Ling Dong did not have the ability to hunt it down!
Even if Ling Dong had the ability to hunt down one of them, the other Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider would probably immediately pounce on Ling Dong.
"Pouncing towards here, it can't be pouncing towards that cave, right?" Looking at the direction the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider was pouncing in, Ling Dong's heart could not help but tremble. If the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider really pounced into that cave, under that kind of terrain, most likely no one would be able to survive, right?
What alarmed Ling Dong was that the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders were indeed pouncing towards the cave where Qiao Ruyan and the others were camping. This made Ling Dong feel a little conflicted. If other people died, it did not matter. Ling Dong would not even frown. But Qiao Ruyan made things difficult for Ling Dong!
Previously, when he killed Bi Pengzhuo and destroyed the Zuo Family in South Mountain County, it was extremely smooth. After that, Mister Qiao had asked his father, Ling Yuanshan, to pass on a message to Ling Dong — your son's fortune is boundless. Since he was not involved in this matter, he should take care of himself!
This sentence had made Ling Dong ponder for a long time. Carefully scrutinizing the words of others was something that a sly old fox like Ling Dong would often do. After much deliberation, Ling Dong's answer was — Mister Qiao was using his father to pass on a message to him!
It was very likely that Mister Qiao had sensed something, but did not delve deeper into it. He had the intention of letting Ling Dong off!
Therefore, Ling Dong was conflicted. Receiving a favor from others could not be said to be repaid with a drop of water. But in Ling Dong's character — a drop of water should be repaid with two drops of water.
Closer. The two Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders were getting closer and closer. In a few breaths' time, they had covered a distance of about one li, directly pouncing towards the cave where Ling Dong and the others were resting. Ling Dong's heart tightened fiercely.
"Eh? There are wounds? " When the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders got closer, Ling Dong unexpectedly discovered that both of them were injured! One of them had a large gash in its abdomen. With every step it took, blood spilled out!
As for the other Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider, one of its legs was raised high as it advanced. The moment it got closer, Ling Dong discovered that the spider's leg had been unexpectedly cut off, leaving only a thread hanging there.
"These two Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders were seriously injured by other martial artists or Demonic Beasts?" Ling Dong's eyes suddenly lit up. With the black sword in his hand, he chased after the spiders.
It was just that he was a little too far away, so Ling Dong could not clearly see the wounds on the two Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders. He could not tell if they were caused by martial artists or Demonic Beasts! If they were injured by martial artists, then it would be even more troublesome!
However, he could not consider so much now. Saving Qiao Ruyan could also be considered as repaying Mister Qiao. The great change in South Mountain County over a year ago, to a certain extent, Ling Dong had borrowed Mister Qiao's power!
More importantly, Ling Dong had his eyes on the Demonic Cores of these two Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders! If he could obtain the Demonic Cores of these two Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders, with Ling Dong's alchemy ability, when his father Ling Yuanshan and grandfather Ling Yuefeng broke through to the Heaven Star Border Realm, they would have a greater chance!
If the Ling family could have a Heaven Star Border Realm expert to hold down the fort, Ling Dong would also be much more relieved!
"Ssss …" A strange low hiss made Ling Dong's heart feel a little uncomfortable. When Ling Dong followed into the cave, he heard the exclamations of Qiao Ruyan and the rest!
However, Ling Dong did not make a sound. He only chased after them, looking for an opportunity to kill them in one strike!
In the blink of an eye, Bi Peng, Cheng Xiesong, Qiao Ruyan, and the rest were fighting with the two Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders! Perhaps it was because the light in the cave was too dim, or perhaps it was because he did not recognize them, but Bi Pengcheng actually did not recognize the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders in front of him. He actually dared to face them with great courage, wanting to show off his skills in front of the beautiful girls!
However, Bi Pengcheng and the rest obviously underestimated the power of the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders in front of them! In just one round, Xie Song was cut into two by the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider!
"Ah … ssss …" Lu Yi's scream and the strange hiss of the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider mixed together!
At this time, Bi Pengcheng, who was fighting the two Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders together with Qiao Ruyan, said with a trembling voice, "Where's Ling Dong? Where's that bastard? Why didn't he come? Did he … run away?"
In the face of Bi Pengcheng's slander, Ling Dong did not move at all. His eyes were fixed on the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider that was fighting with Qiao Ruyan. At the same time, he was looking for an opportunity. If his strength was not enough, he would immediately rescue them!
To Ling Dong's surprise, Bi Pengcheng and Qiao Ruyan were actually able to hold on for a minute in front of the two Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders. Their bodies were shining brightly from head to toe. Both of their families were not bad. From head to toe, their weapons were extraordinary. For example, Bi Pengcheng was even desperately stuffing elixirs into his mouth!
"Ssss …" At this time, the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider that was fighting with Qiao Ruyan, because its broken spider leg was swept by Qiao Ruyan's sword aura. Its two small red spider eyes revealed an ominous glint!
The moment its upper body leaped up, the four spider legs in front of it slashed towards Qiao Ruyan from four directions at the same time!
In an instant, Qiao Ruyan's face turned ashen. The cave was narrow and there was no space to dodge at all. The four legs of the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider were close to three meters long when stretched out, almost sealing off Qiao Ruyan's escape route!
For a moment, Qiao Ruyan had the feeling of closing her eyes and waiting for death. At this moment, Qiao Ruyan thought of what Ling Dong said when they entered this cave. "This cave is very likely the territory of a strong demon beast!"
At this moment, Qiao Ruyan and Bi Pengcheng were extremely regretful. At the same time, a thought appeared in their minds — if only they had listened to Ling Dong!
"Swoosh!" Just as Qiao Ruyan was feeling hopeless, a glaring golden light suddenly lit up in a corner of the cave, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound!
"Ling Dong!" The moment she saw that golden light, Qiao Ruyan's eyes lit up. She was both happy and worried! She was happy that Ling Dong wasn't a coward and didn't give up on them!
But she was worried that with Ling Dong's Xiantian Realm Level Three or Four cultivation, it would be like throwing an egg against a rock and sending himself to his death! After being happy for a moment, the fear of death once again enveloped Qiao Ruyan!
Facing the four legs, Qiao Ruyan painfully closed her eyes. She didn't want to see the scene of her being killed by those legs …
"Bam!" A heavy sound rang in the cave, but no one could see anything clearly. All they could see was a glaring golden light.
"Ssss … …" The Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider's pained and angry roar shook the entire cave, covering up the sound of the heavy blows falling like raindrops one after another!
The moment Ling Dong landed on the Man-Face Golden Haired Spider's back, he had used the black sword in his hand to consecutively slash the Man-Face Golden Haired Spider's back four to five times. Only when the Man-Face Golden Haired Spider's limp body fell to the ground did Ling Dong stop!
The back was the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider's only weakness. This was the conclusion that Ling Dong had drawn from hunting Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders in his previous life!
The moment he stopped, Ling Dong saw Qiao Ruyan, that silly girl, standing on the four legs with her eyes closed, waiting for death. And the front four legs of the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider were in free fall because of its death!
If these four sharp and poisonous spider legs fell, Qiao Ruyan would definitely die!
"Be careful!" The moment he exclaimed, the Cloud Chasing Boots on Ling Dong's feet suddenly lit up with a terrifying brilliance. His entire body shot towards Qiao Ruyan like an arrow. The moment he got close to Qiao Ruyan, he grabbed her by the waist and lifted her up!
Following the momentum, he rolled forward. As he rolled, Ling Dong's body and Qiao Ruyan's soft and delicate body were perfectly pressed together. A whiff of orchid fragrance rushed into Ling Dong's nostrils!
However, Ling Dong didn't have the time to experience that ecstasy. Borrowing the momentum of rushing forward, a terrifying green defense surged on his legs, and he used all his strength to roll towards the front of the cave to avoid the free-falling spider legs!
Only after a loud rumbling sound did Ling Dong finally stop, gasping for breath. He turned around to look at the four spider legs that had fallen freely to the ground. He could not help but break out in cold sweat. One of the spider legs had coincidentally fallen between his and Qiao Ruyan's intertwined legs!
If it had advanced another half a meter, then Ling Dong would really have wanted to cry, but no tears would come out. He would become the most despised non-male and non-female character in Tiangang Continent!
"Phew!" Ling Dong let out a long breath. The moment he turned his head, he saw Qiao Ruyan staring at him with a pair of beautiful big eyes. Her eyes were filled with complex emotions, and her charming face was flushed red!
Waves of heat came from her soft and delicate body, and her breath smelled like orchids. A strange feeling couldn't help but arise in Ling Dong's body. A certain part of his body was as hard as iron. For a moment, Qiao Ruyan's cheeks were burning. Ling Dong didn't have any intention of letting go, and continued hugging her like this!
"Brother Ling, save me!" Bi Pengcheng's loud cry woke the pair from their strange feelings. It also made Qiao Ruyan feel very embarrassed. She couldn't help but lower her head, allowing the towering twin peaks to bury Ling Dong's head!
"Ssss …" The other Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider that had discovered its companion's death let out a pained howl. It actually abandoned Bi Pengcheng and rushed towards Ling Dong!
The male and female Human-Faced Golden Haired Spiders were companions, and were one of the most emotional demonic beasts. If one of them died, the other would definitely seek revenge!
Therefore, the moment Qiao Ruyan cried out "Be careful!", Ling Dong abruptly abandoned his gentle embrace and carried Qiao Ruyan to the side. His entire body rolled and pounced towards the Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider!
Now, Ling Dong needed to face a Middle-Stage Earthly Fiend Realm Human-Faced Golden Haired Spider head-on!
Bi Pengcheng, who had just managed to catch his breath and was still in a state of shock, ran to Qiao Ruyan's side with a pale face and said shamelessly, "Ruyan, with Ling Dong holding it off, let's quickly escape!"
