Chapter 116
Beneath the Brilliant Galaxy.
The Purple-Winged Spider King desperately tried to break free from the Ghostly Ninth Soul Skill.
The ghostly hands attached to it dissipated into black smoke with each struggle.
But soon, more ghostly hands rose from the ground and clung to it once more.
Knowing it could not escape, the Purple-Winged Spider King let out a hiss.
Its wounds, which had begun to heal, reopened, and thick, venomous blood flowed from its eight shattered eyes. The
Purple-Winged Spider King ignored this, barely managing to resist the ghostly hands' restraints, and forcefully raised its body.
Its ferocious mandibles opened, revealing a mouthful of sharp, blade-like fangs.
A faint purple light continuously condensed within its mouth.
Buzz—
At the last moment, the Purple-Winged Spider King successfully completed its charge.
It also spat out a purple beam of light, deflecting Yue Guan's attack.
The two beams of light, one golden and one purple, collided.
Boom—
A violent explosion followed, and a terrifying shockwave spread outwards with unstoppable force.
Trees and rocks along the way were all obliterated in this shockwave.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Serpent Heavenly Shield."
Dugu Bo stretched out his hand to block, and a dense green light gathered into a strange light shield, blocking all the aftershocks of the battle.
Without time to rest, Yue Guan once again condensed his ninth soul skill, determined to win the battle and completely defeat the Purple Winged Spider King.
The Ghostly Demon had also exerted all its strength at this time. The countless ghostly hands that had previously clung to the Purple Winged Spider King all merged together,
forming a huge bone claw that firmly pinned the Purple Winged Spider King's body to the spot.
Just as everyone's attention was drawn to Yue Guan and the Purple Winged Spider King,
in a hidden corner not far from the battlefield,
a gray-black light slowly gathered.
Sensing the fluctuation of soul power, Dugu Bo's expression changed, and he abruptly turned around.
"Damn it, the Death Spider King is here!"
Dugu Bo's words had barely left his lips when
, in a secluded corner of the battlefield, the phantom of the Death Spider King slowly emerged.
A towering gray-purple beam of light erupted from its mouth, attacking Yue Guan and Gui Mei.
At this moment, Yue Guan and Gui Mei were both operating their own soul skills, and they had no time to react.
Dugu Bo abruptly changed the direction of the Serpent Heavenly Shield, attempting to use it to block the impending attack.
Knowing that Dugu Bo's fifth soul skill was unlikely to withstand the Death Spider King's attack, Qin Ming flapped his wings and took flight.
'Now is not the time to worry about the Sea God's divine sense; the Vast Ocean Universe Shield must be used!'
As he pondered, Qin Ming flipped his wrist, and a triangular object emitting a soft blue light appeared in his palm.
'Vast Ocean Protective Shield!'
He uttered a low shout in his mind, and Qin Ming rapidly poured soul power into the triangular object in his hand.
The first soul skill of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, Vast Ocean Protective Shield, was released.
A faint blue light swept across, and a semi-transparent barrier, shimmering with blue light, slowly condensed in mid-air.
Just as the Vast Ocean Protective Shield was not yet fully formed, the Death Spider King's attack struck.
Bang—
the defense that Dugu Bo had previously erected shattered upon contact, and the gray-black beam of light slammed into the still-unfinished Vast Ocean Protective Shield.
Fine cracks spread outwards like a spider web, and the Vast Ocean Protective Shield showed signs of damage.
Fortunately, it managed to hold out for a few breaths.
At this moment, Yue Guan finally condensed his ninth soul skill.
"Ninth Soul Skill, Chrysanthemums Fall, Wounds Fill the Ground, Flowers Fall, Hearts Break!"
Yue Guan abandoned his attack on the Purple Winged Spider King, who was bound by the ghostly demon.
The torrent of petals, like a celestial river pouring down, changed direction and swept towards the Death Spider King.
The Vast Ocean Protective Shield, which had taken over from Qin Ming, blocked the Death Spider King's attack. As the torrent of petals from the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum clashed with the Death Spider King's attack,
the sound of metal clashing rang out continuously, and countless Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum petals were annihilated.
However, soon, more petals surged against the gray-black pillar of light, advancing towards the Death Spider King.
At this moment, realizing something was wrong, the Death Spider King did not choose to take the attack head-on.
The instant it stopped attacking, the Death Spider King slightly crouched to gather strength, and then suddenly leaped up.
The torrent of petals unleashed by Yue Guan all landed in empty air…
"Not good!"
Yue Guan and the others thought the Death Spider King was going to attack their main body, and hurriedly used their soul power to erect a soul power barrier in front of them.
However, the Death Spider King did not attack them.
In a few leaps, the Death Spider King traversed a distance of several thousand meters.
When it landed again, the Death Spider King appeared beside the Purple Wing Spider King.
The Death Spider King's mouth opened slightly, and a gray-black light wave surged out,
landing on the black ghost hand that was binding the Purple Wing Spider King's movements.
Instantly, spiderweb-like cracks appeared on that black ghost hand.
"Hiss—"
With a hiss, the Purple-Winged Spider King successfully broke free of its restraints.
The Purple-Winged Spider King looked rather wretched; all eight of its eyes were damaged, and most of the barbs on its legs used to sense its surroundings had fallen off.
However, it still retained most of its fighting strength.
Seeing this, Yue Guan frowned.
"Damn it, the situation has reversed!"
Dugu Bo also spoke up.
"Two 100,000-year-old soul beasts are not something we can handle right now!
Your Highness, let's retreat!"
Hearing this, Qin Ming nodded.
"Elders, come closer. I'll activate the Vast Ocean Universe Cover first.
With its ability to conceal our aura, escaping the battle shouldn't be difficult..."
As he spoke, Qin Ming once again channeled soul power into the Vast Ocean Universe Cover.
The triangular object emitting a soft, precious light flew into the air, the soft light slowly coalescing...
Seeing this, the Purple-Winged Spider King, realizing that Qin Ming and the others were preparing to escape, hissed.
"We can't let them escape!"
The Death Spider King didn't respond to the Purple Wing Spider King beside it.
They weren't allies; in fact, they were subtly enemies.
This time, the Death Spider King was only willing to help because it sensed Dugu Bo's aura.
Dugu Bo already possessed level 90 soul power but hadn't obtained his ninth soul ring, and he was also a poison-attribute soul master.
The Death Spider King knew that Qin Ming and his group were after its soul rings and soul bones.
It was precisely because of this that it chose to ambush Qin Ming and his group.
While pondering, the Death Spider King raised its body high, its eight crimson eyes flashing with a dark light.
A ring of grayish-white mental shockwaves poured towards Qin Ming and his group.
Seeing this, the Purple Wing Spider King followed suit,
also using a mental shockwave to sweep forward.
These two mental shockwaves arrived extremely quickly; the Vast Ocean Protective Shield hadn't fully formed yet, and Yue Guan and the others only had time to shield Qin Ming behind them.
As the two mental shocks struck the Vast Ocean Universe Shield in mid-air, a sudden tremor ran through the swirling shield. "Alas—"
A soft sigh echoed across the battlefield… (End of Chapter)
