According to the Blue Silver King, the chance of a Soul Bone dropping increases significantly when a Soul Beast is filled with extreme resentment.
It seemed to have been the case with the previous Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent.
However, the data from a single instance was not very reliable. He planned to test it again on this Man Faced Demon Spider.
This time, Xiao Yan's palm strike wasn't particularly strong, and soon, the Man Faced Demon Spider slowly woke up.
Xiao Yan stepped back three paces. With a thought, he immediately used the thick Blue Silver Emperor Vine to bind it.
The Man Faced Demon Spider, now fully awake, noticed its body was restrained and immediately struggled in anger.
A layer of purplish-blue light spread from its body.
Seeing this scene, Ning Rongrong naturally knew it was a poison and didn't dare to watch up close, quickly retreating to a distance.
The Man Faced Demon Spider had two kinds of poison, one was a neurotoxin, and the other was this corrosive poison.
However, with its thousand-year Soul Beast cultivation, wanting to corrode Xiao Yan's Blue Silver Emperor Vine was completely a pipe dream.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Yan didn't get the Man Faced Demon Spider's web that he wanted.
"Did it finish spraying? Exhausted?" Xiao Yan rubbed his chin and walked forward.
He wanted the Soul Bone, and he also wanted the Man Faced Demon Spider's web.
Looking at the Man Faced Demon Spider with a slight disappointment, Xiao Yan sighed, "Since you don't have any web left, then I'm sorry."
With a touch of his hand on the Storage Jade Belt, Xiao Yan produced eight iron needles and a ceramic bottle.
These iron needles were crafted during his childhood, but unfortunately, he'd never had the chance to use them.
Inside the ceramic bottle was a poison, Shadow Crane Poison.
This poison wasn't lethal, but it inflicted unending pain.
Dabbing the purple-black liquid from the bottle, Xiao Yan flicked the needles towards the areas where the eight spider legs of the Man Faced Demon Spider connected to its body.
"Hiss… Hiss… Hiss…"
All eight spider legs were struck by the poisoned needles, making the Man Faced Demon Spider feel more speechless than ever before in its life.
Who was whose nightmare, anyway? The human before it was simply a demon!!! Even Ning Rongrong, the "Little Witch," found it hard to watch; it was too cruel.
Xiao Yan didn't let the Man Faced Demon Spider suffer for too long. If it blew itself up, things would get out of hand.
He struck out another Empty Palm Strike, knocking the Man Faced Demon Spider unconscious.
At this moment, three uninvited guests swiftly emerged from the forest.
Xiao Yan was quite familiar with the newcomers.
Two of them were the Snake Granny, Chao Tianxiang, who had fled after exchanging a single blow, and her granddaughter, Meng Yiran.
In addition, there was a tall, thin old man beside Meng Yiran.
Xiao Yan had originally planned to use the Blue Silver Emperor to revitalize the Man Faced Demon Spider, clearing any blockages in its blood vessels and the like, but it seemed that wouldn't be possible now.
He focused his attention on the tall, thin old man.
This was the most powerful person he'd seen, aside from Tang Hao.
Two yellow, three purple, and two black: a Soul Douluo with eight Soul Rings.
Without needing to think about it, he knew that this old man was Meng Yiran's grandfather, Lord Long.
Lord Long looked to be at least seventy years old, and like Chao Tianxiang, had a full head of silver hair.
In his hand was a dragon-headed cane, its length exceeding four meters, and its bright silver color was eye-catching. The dragon head at the top of the cane was lifelike and exquisitely beautiful.
The Overwhelming Dragon Serpent trio arrived nearby, and upon seeing Xiao Yan, both the Snake Granny and Meng Yiran's expressions changed.
Meng Yiran exclaimed, "Xiao Yan, it's you again!"
"What did you do to my Man Faced Demon Spider?" Meng Yiran questioned, looking at the motionless spider on the ground.
Xiao Yan smiled slightly, "Don't be so tense. This Man Faced Demon Spider isn't dead yet, just temporarily unconscious."
"You are Xiao Yan?" Lord Long, Meng Shu, looked at Xiao Yan in the distance with his bright eyes.
He had heard his wife mention this young man.
That Great Recovery Pill did indeed contain very rich medicinal properties. Trading two for a thousand-year Soul Beast was definitely not a loss.
As for replicating Soul Skills, he found it somewhat unbelievable and really wanted to see it for himself.
Xiao Yan said calmly, "Martial Soul Hall, Xiao Yan."
Although this Lord Long's aura wasn't bad, it was a bit of a show of force in front of him.
If he really wanted to kill this Lord Long, he wouldn't need a second move.
Lord Long asked indifferently, "Martial Soul Hall? Is that the force you belong to?"
"Not bad," Xiao Yan nodded slightly.
Lord Long searched his mind rapidly. Besides the Martial Soul Hall, he couldn't think of any related forces. Moreover, there were no families with the surname Xiao among the famous families on the continent.
"I wonder what your relationship is with the Martial Soul Hall?" Lord Long asked directly.
Xiao Yan sighed and could only explain, "The Hall of Souls has no relation to the Martial Soul Hall. The Hall of Souls emphasizes Soul Power as the core, combined with Martial Souls, to develop human's own strength. What matters most is Soul Power, regardless of whether it's a high-level or low-level Martial Soul.
Even ordinary farming tools have the potential to become stronger."
Lord Long couldn't help but laugh, "Young in age, but your tone isn't small."
He had lived so long, he had seen all sorts of clowns. Over a decade ago, there was a guy called "Master" who jumped around quite a bit.
Later, he became a famous clown.
Xiao Yan lowered his head, looking at the Man Faced Demon Spider. If it weren't for the fact that Lord Long was practically on his deathbed, he'd really want to say: An old man like you, and your strength is just so-so.
Lord Long said, "This Man Faced Demon Spider is ours. You should step aside and not delay my granddaughter from absorbing the Soul Ring."
"Yours?" Xiao Yan chuckled. "I'm sorry, but if it falls into my hands, Xiao Yan's hands, then it's mine. If you want the Man Faced Demon Spider, come and take it yourself."
As he spoke, Xiao Yan raised his hand and condensed a four-meter-long dragon-head cane.
Except for the color, which was different from the one in Lord Long's hand, the appearance was nearly identical.
"Xiao Yan, you're trying to steal my Soul Ring again!" Meng Yiran looked at Xiao Yan, her pretty face flushed red, clearly furious.
Seeing Xiao Yan challenging him, Meng Shu was genuinely surprised by the young man's courage.
Didn't he see the eight Soul Rings on his body?
"Xiao Yan, I'm giving you two choices right now.
The first is to hand over the Man Faced Demon Spider and stand aside. I can pretend nothing happened. It's understandable for young people to be impulsive and passionate, but it's not good to lose your life because of a moment of impulse.
The second is to suffer later, and then you will join my Meng Shu family. As for your so-called Soul Hall, from now on, it will also be a vassal of my Meng Shu family."
The old man's got a good mind, Xiao Yan thought, slightly raising his estimation of Lord Long.
When encountering someone in their seventies or eighties, their words naturally weren't spoken lightly.
This Man Faced Demon Spider, keeping it really had no great use other than the possibility of a thousand-year Soul Bone drop.
But if he could reel in a family, that would be a huge win.
