Chapter 249 - Chapter 249 · The Turning Wheel of Fate

Inside the Star Dou Forest, the Silver Dragon King and Di Tian spent a long time sorting through the dragon clan genealogy before finally giving up on determining their seniority.

The Silver Dragon King then took out several rare metals. Using her control over the elements, she wove mithril and the other rare metals into fine threads before using them to write a complete collection of dragon runes.

Considering that Chen Ming might not understand them, the Silver Dragon King made this dragon rune book at the level of a children's teaching aid. As long as one's brain did not have any major problems, they could roughly understand the meaning of the dragon runes by looking at the comparison table.

Just as Di Tian was preparing to set out personally, someone below came to report.

"There is a Man-Faced Demon Spider in the Star Dou Great Forest. For some reason, it has broken through to the hundred-thousand-year level. Right now, it is fleeing the Star Dou Forest and trying to enter the human world."

"A Man-Faced Demon Spider can actually attain the hundred-thousand-year level?" Hearing the report from this Spirit Beast, Di Tian's expression instantly darkened.

Unlike Death Spiders and Soul-Devouring Spiders, which ate a lot but stopped hunting once they were full, Man-Faced Demon Spiders were known as killers of small Spirit Beasts. They were cruel and bloodthirsty Spirit Beasts. Even when they were full, they would still kill for pleasure, and many small and medium-sized Spirit Beasts would be brutally slaughtered by them.

Because they killed without eating, and because the Spirit Beasts killed by Man-Faced Demon Spiders were tainted by their deadly poison and could not be eaten by normal Spirit Beasts, Man-Faced Demon Spiders were rejected and hunted by many Spirit Beasts.

Generally speaking, this kind of Spirit Beast could already be considered a major threat once it reached over fifty thousand years. Di Tian had also ordered most hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beasts and fierce beasts in the Star Dou Forest to eliminate such Spirit Beasts if they encountered them.

Although Di Tian knew there were definitely still some Man-Faced Demon Spiders over fifty thousand years old hiding in the Star Dou Forest, now that one had actually broken through to a hundred thousand years, wasn't that a slap to his face?

"When did the Star Dou Forest end up with a Man-Faced Demon Spider that old? What have you Spirit Beasts been doing?"

"Lord Beast God, that Man-Faced Demon Spider originally only had seventy thousand years of cultivation. No one knows what it ate, but its cultivation advanced greatly. After that, it devoured several ninety-thousand-year Spirit Beasts and forcefully raised itself to the hundred-thousand-year level."

This hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast, which looked like a giant one-horned python, kowtowed repeatedly and pleaded guilty before Di Tian.

"A lucky chance from my Star Dou Forest was actually obtained by this Man-Faced Demon Spider…"

Di Tian was displeased, but he still nodded.

"In that case, send a fierce beast to hunt down this Man-Faced Demon Spider. If that truly won't work, then just force it into the human world. When the time comes, the people of Spirit Hall will naturally deal with it."

After thinking for a moment, Di Tian left the core area and went to seek out the fierce beast Yao Ling.

Yao Ling was an extremely special fierce beast. His body existed within twisted space-time, and even Di Tian had never truly seen his real form.

Yao Ling had powerful spatial abilities, some time abilities, and spiritual attributes as well. Because of that, Di Tian was very confident in letting Yao Ling deal with a hundred-thousand-year Man-Faced Demon Spider.

After hearing Di Tian's order, Yao Ling transformed within the twisted light into the form of an ordinary-looking young man. He nodded to Di Tian and accepted the command.

Meanwhile, at the outer edge of the Star Dou Forest, a group of Spirit Masters from the Speed Clan were relying on their numbers to surround and kill a Needle-Tailed Swift.

After forcing the Needle-Tailed Swift down to the ground and crippling its wings, Bai He, the clan chief of the Speed Clan, revealed his bear-paw-like hands. Under the support of Spirit Power, his hands gave off a dark iron glow. It was clearly the sign that his Iron Hand Skill had reached minor completion.

With the help of Bai He, a Spirit Saint, the Needle-Tailed Swift finally lost the ability to resist.

A lively young girl excitedly squeezed out from among her clansmen. Holding a heavy iron hammer, she smashed the Needle-Tailed Swift's head apart.

A purple Spirit Ring floated into the air.

"Chenxiang, hurry and absorb this Spirit Ring. I keep feeling like there's some kind of danger nearby."

Bai He, the clan chief of the Speed Clan, looked at the Needle-Tailed Swift they had only managed to hunt down with everyone working together and sighed. For some reason, he felt his heart beating faster than usual, as if something bad was watching them.

With the Speed Clan's trait of being able to fly at high speed as an entire clan, ordinary situations would not put them in danger. But once Bai Chenxiang entered the state of absorbing a Spirit Ring, she could not move easily. At that time, if any ten-thousand-year Spirit Beast came over, then with the Speed Clan's weak attack power, there really would be very little they could do.

Although the Speed Clan cultivated the new techniques spreading across the continent, such as the Douluo Heart Method and Iron Hand Skill, and had to some extent made up for what their clan lacked, the time had been too short. They still could not attack while maintaining high-speed movement, so their flaws had not been fully fixed.

Because of this, even surrounding and killing a thousand-year Spirit Beast like this required many experts to act together.

"All right. I'll absorb this Spirit Ring."

Bai Chenxiang was also very wary of the Star Dou Forest, so she quickly sat down and began absorbing the Spirit Ring.

But on a level the Speed Clan members could not sense, their bodies were giving off a blood-red glow. This power drew a hundred-thousand-year Man-Faced Demon Spider quickly toward the Speed Clan's direction.

It could sense that this was the same power that had allowed it to successfully break through to a hundred thousand years.

As long as it absorbed more and more of it, it would be able to pass its hundred-thousand-year Heavenly Tribulation.

While Bai Chenxiang was absorbing the Spirit Ring, the Man-Faced Demon Spider hidden in the shadows appeared near the Speed Clan without making a sound.

A ten-thousand-year Man-Faced Demon Spider already had the innate ability to completely hide its own aura. This hundred-thousand-year Man-Faced Demon Spider, despite its huge body, moved like a ghost. It easily pierced through the chests of two Speed Clan Spirit Masters.

Before the two Spirit Masters could even scream, they were killed instantly.

By logic, with Bai He's level of strength, it should have been impossible for him to sense the existence of a hundred-thousand-year Man-Faced Demon Spider. But at this moment, as if aided by a god, Bai He turned his head and saw a terrifying monster easily slaughtering more than half of his clansmen.

"Run! It's a powerful ten-thousand-year Spirit Beast!"

Bai He let out a sharp scream. He reached out, grabbed Bai Chenxiang, summoned his Martial Soul, and prepared to fly away.

But after hearing Bai He's shout, the Man-Faced Demon Spider became unhappy instead.

"Ten-thousand-year Spirit Beast? Little snacks, who are you insulting?"

"I am the hundred-thousand-year Man-Faced Demon Spider Emperor. It is your honor to become my food."
