Mortal: Reborn in Yellow Maple Valley, Awakening the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts

"Black-edged Poison Spider!"

Upon seeing the appearance of the demonic beast lurking on the cave ceiling, Chu Zifei's heart sank. The Black-Edged Poison Spider had eight long, sharp legs like knives, and its saliva contained a highly corrosive venom, making it extremely troublesome even among demonic beasts in the early stages of Foundation Establishment.

Seeing that its prey had discovered it, the black-spined spider on the rock wall was enraged. It mobilized all eight of its thick, hairy legs at the same time, and its body shot up like a black lightning bolt, pouncing directly at the prey.

Faced with the sudden attack, Chu Zifei remained calm and composed, neither dodging nor avoiding. He unleashed a powerful iron fist, which struck the Black Fang Spider squarely below its mouth, causing it to stagger.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chu Zifei kicked out again, sending the spider flying.

This attack, however, did not seriously injure the Black-edged Spider; instead, it completely aroused its ferocity. It no longer attacked rashly, but used its eight long legs to support its body, quietly observing its prey before it, preparing to find an opportunity to kill it with a single blow.

Suddenly!

The Black Fang Spider opened its mouth wide, and with each opening and closing, shimmering silk threads shot out, rushing straight at Chu Zifei.

The distance was too close; there was no time to dodge.

Several strands of spider silk wrapped around Chu Zifei's legs, causing him to lose his balance, stumble, and fall heavily to the ground.

Seeing this, the Black-Edged Poison Spider kept spitting spider silk towards the place where he had fallen. In an instant, it wrapped Chu Zifei up completely, forming a giant cocoon in the shape of a human, trapping him inside and rendering him unable to move.

Seeing its prey pinned to the ground and completely still, the venomous spider slowly moved its massive body closer.

When it stops in front of or behind the spider silk cocoon, it raises its two sharp pincers high, gathers its strength, and plunges down, intending to pierce through it in one blow.

Just as the black-haired venomous spider was about to pierce through the cocoon, the silk cocoon suddenly burst open, the silk breaking apart and scattering in all directions.

The moment the cocoon burst open, Chu Zifei stomped his feet on the ground, unleashing his power from his waist, and kicked the Black Fang Spider hard in the unsuspecting, soft abdomen.

The black-sharp venomous spider, kicked, flew backward, crashed into the stone wall, and slowly landed on the ground.

The Black-Edged Poison Spider instantly soared into the air and flew backward, crashing into the cave wall and sending debris flying before landing heavily on the ground.

This kick completely enraged the Black Fang Spider!

It struggled to its feet and opened its mouth again, but this time it sprayed out thick, emerald-green venom instead of spider silk.

The venom kept coming in waves, forcing Chu Zifei to dodge repeatedly, leaving him no chance to fight back. As he dodged, the venom landed on the stone wall, causing wisps of smoke to rise, demonstrating its potent corrosiveness.

at last!

The Black-edged Spider's continuous spitting began to pause.

It's now!

  

Chu Zifei seized the opportunity, gripped the Spirit Flame Blade, and stomped his feet hard on the ground, bursting out like an arrow, quickly approaching the Black Fang Poison Spider.

Another stream of venom sprayed towards them from the road. Chu Zifei flipped his wrist, swung his blade, and slammed it against the rock wall, making a hissing sound.

Having dodged three streaks of venom, he finally closed the distance with the Black Fang Spider.

Before Chu Zifei could even draw his sword, the Black-Edged Poison Spider reacted swiftly, suddenly raising one of its sharp, long legs and viciously slashing towards Chu Zifei's head!

In the critical moment, Chu Zifei had no choice but to change his move midway, parrying with his right hand holding his sword horizontally. With a crisp clang, he managed to block the poisonous spider's fatal blow.

Taking advantage of the brief stalemate between the knife and the foot, Chu Zifei immediately threw a punch with his left hand, which struck the left row of compound eyes of the Black Fang Poison Spider amidst a howling wind.

Bang!

Two jet-black compound eyes burst open on the spot, and dark green fluid splattered everywhere.

The spider, in pain, instinctively tried to retract its long legs and retreat to avoid danger. But Chu Zifei wouldn't give it a chance to catch its breath. He grabbed its foreleg with his right hand and his left fist came whistling through the air, blasting the black spider's two eyes open.

The increasingly fierce punches caused the venomous spider to struggle wildly, its massive body constantly shrinking backward, and its remaining legs flailing wildly.

In its panic, its sharp spider legs struck Chu Zifei's body several times, leaving shallow bloody scratches on his skin.

The surge of blood made Chu Zifei increasingly excited, as if inexhaustible strength was surging through his limbs and bones. A cruel smile appeared on his lips as he channeled all his power and hurled it at the poisonous spider in front of him like a tidal wave.

Chu Zifei's fists flew, his attacks becoming increasingly fierce.

Each punch is heavier than the last, and each punch is faster than the last!

Bang bang bang!

The muffled thuds of fists hitting flesh echoed continuously in the cave as the Black-Edged Poison Spider's head burst open, its bodily fluids mixed with bits of flesh splattering everywhere.

The piercing hissing continued, and in its desperate situation, the Black-Edged Poison Spider went completely mad. Unwilling to sit and wait for death, it spat out spider silk from its mouthparts. With the spider silk so close, Chu Zi had no way to avoid it and was once again wrapped and imprisoned by layers of spider silk.

But at this moment, the Black-edged Poison Spider was already exhausted and severely injured; its entire head was almost burst open, and all its compound eyes were destroyed. If it weren't for its beastly body and tenacious vitality, it would have died long ago.

Inside the spider silk cocoon, Chu Zifei remained calm and composed. With a thought, he manipulated the Spirit Flame Blade that had fallen to the side to fly through the air.

A cold glint appeared!

The blade sliced ​​through the air, striking the already powerless poisonous spider's neck.

"puff!"

With a flash of the blade, head and body were separated, clean and swift!

The mournful hiss abruptly ceased, and the Black-edged Poison Spider's massive body collapsed heavily to the ground, its life utterly extinguished.

After confirming that the Black-Edged Poison Spider was completely dead, Chu Zifei felt a surge of energy throughout his body and suddenly exerted his strength. The spider silk binding him snapped and broke free. He quickly looked down to check his injuries.

Fortunately, after cultivating the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, his physical body was strong enough. In addition, the Black-Edged Spider's deadly venom was only contained in the venom sac in its mouth, and there was no venom on the spider's sharp legs. Therefore, the injuries he suffered were only superficial and not serious.

Chu Zifei looked at the fine bloodstains on his arm and sighed inwardly.

Even a Foundation Establishment stage demon beast, with only the strength of the initial stage, can still break through his powerful physical body with its frantic counterattack before death, which shows how dangerous it is.

After this battle, he felt a greater sense of awe and respect for demonic beasts at the Foundation Establishment stage.

After calming himself down and confirming that he was unharmed, Chu Zifei first took out the essence blood of the Black-Edged Poison Spider and put it into a jade bottle. Then, with a casual wave of his hand, he put its corpse into his storage bag.

Foundation Establishment level demonic beasts are treasures from head to toe. Their spider shells, venom sacs, and long legs are all excellent materials for refining weapons and are quite valuable. They must not be wasted.

After tidying up, he suddenly remembered that when he was fiercely fighting with the Black-Edged Spider, he had inadvertently caught a glimpse of a small patch of strange, dark red flowers growing inside the cave.

I didn't have time to look closely at the time, but now, thinking back on it, I feel quite excited, and I have a vague idea of ​​what kind of strange flowers those were.
