He began his journey to becoming a true immortal by causing others to fail their tribulations.

The outer disciple, who had just been rescued by Xun Yan, was still a little dazed. Xun Yan slapped him to wake him up.

Although his face was burning with pain, the outer disciple was still very excited to see that it was Xun Yan.

"Senior Brother Xun..."

Before he could even express his gratitude, Xun Yan interrupted him and said:

"Hurry and save the others, then teleport back immediately. The spider is coming; I'm buying you some time."

After saying that, Xun Yan rushed out of the cave.

As for whether this outer disciple would save the person or run away on his own, Xun Yan didn't care at all.

"As expected, things can't always be perfect. If we can't hold on any longer, I'll have no choice but to activate the formation."

As for how many of you will survive, that depends on your own fate.

Just as Xun Yan was thinking this, he had already run into the Earth-Attack Spider.

Instead of immediately charging forward to meet the attack, he summoned a fire spirit talisman and aimed it directly at the Earth-Slaying Spider's head.

The ground attack spider was already quite annoyed when it realized that the food it had finally managed to catch was abnormal.

Now the prey has hit me on the head again. Although the damage isn't severe, it's extremely humiliating.

This completely ignited the Earth-Attack Spider's rage. After letting out a deafening roar, it rushed towards Xun Yan at lightning speed.

Inside the cave, the outer disciples who heard the commotion outside were startled.

He subconsciously took out the teleportation jade token, ready to make a run for it, but then he remembered Xun Yan's life-saving grace and the entrustment he had given him.

He gritted his teeth and stamped his foot, finally taking out his magical longsword and turning to save his fellow disciples.

call--

With a gust of wind, Xun Yan not only dispersed the spider silk spewed by the Earth-Attack Spider, but also used the wind to create more distance between them.

After dealing with Han Xi, Xun Yan obtained a lot of talismans from his storage bag.

Therefore, he doesn't feel too bad about using talismans, and his application of them is naturally more precise.

With the help of these talismans and his own strength, Xun Yan was able to hold his own against the Earth Spider.

The more the man and the spider fought, the farther they got from the cave, even fighting their way from the bottom of the basin to the high ground.

Although the damage he inflicted on the Earth-Slaying Spider was not particularly high, the Earth-Slaying Spider also had difficulty harming Xun Yan.

boom--

A lightning talisman struck the Earth-Attack Spider precisely, causing it to pause its movements noticeably.

Seeing this, Xun Yan did not rush forward to strike, but instead took the opportunity to create distance again.

"As expected, this spider is also weak to lightning. But if these things are clearly afraid of lightning, how come they are appearing in the Thunderous Secret Realm?"

Or is it that the Thunderous Realm originally had no lightning, and that it changed for some reason?

These questions had barely surfaced when Xun Yan immediately forgot about them; now was not the time to dwell on them.

We still need to focus on dealing with the immediate attacking spiders.

Just as Xun Yan regained his footing, an outer disciple ran up to a high point and shouted, "Senior Brother Xun, everyone else has been rescued! You should leave too!"

"OK."

Xun Yan was only slightly distracted in response, which was keenly noticed by the Earth-Attack Spider.

It suddenly spat out a mouthful of spider silk, heading straight for Xun Yan's body.

Although Xun Yan quickly dodged, his right leg was still entangled in the spider silk and he was frozen in place.

"Senior Brother Xun!" the outer disciple shouted, trying to rush over to help.

Xun Yan quickly raised his hand and said, "You all go quickly, I'm fine!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xun Yan stopped holding back and activated the Nine Heavens Thunder Array!

boom--

As Xun Yan pointed his sword at the Earth-Slaying Spider, a pale purple bolt of lightning struck down, hitting the spider squarely.

This bolt of lightning was quite powerful. Although it didn't kill the Earth-Attack Spider instantly, it did inflict considerable damage on it.

However, this also brought out the ferocity of the ground attack spider.

Sensing the Earth-Attack Spider's even more ferocious aura, Xun Yan couldn't help but frown slightly.

The outer disciple also sensed that he couldn't help in the upcoming battle, and that staying would only be a hindrance.

So he decisively took out the teleportation jade token and crushed it.

During this process, he also took out a recording stone, thinking of recording Xun Yan's heroic fighting to save his fellow disciples.

Even if Xun Yan doesn't come back, this video will help everyone remember him better and make it easier for those of them who were rescued to commemorate him.

On the battlefield.

Faced with the attacking Earth Spider, Xun Yan immediately used the Earth Concealment Technique, burrowing into the ground.

This is a hidden benefit of the Earth Concealment Technique that Xun Yan discovered: it allows one to easily break free from some lower-level binding techniques.

However, if they encounter magical treasures, supernatural powers, or spatial confinement, even using the Earth Concealment Technique will make it difficult to escape.

After dodging and creating some distance, Xun Yan raised his hand again and waved it, and another bolt of lightning struck the Earth-Attack Spider.

Having been hit by lightning twice in a row, the Earth-Attack Spider, which was already weak to lightning, finally couldn't hold on any longer.

But it didn't intend to run away; instead, with a roar, its body began to swell.

Cracks appeared on its surface, and a blood-red light shone through them.

The originally clear sky was now filled with thick thunderclouds.

"This is... forcibly increasing one's strength, resulting in attracting the tribulation lightning."

Xun Yan frowned slightly, but then smiled again.

"Tribulation is great! If you don't undergo tribulation, I won't be able to take advantage of the system!"

At that moment, the Earth-Slaying Spider suddenly burst forth with a speed much faster than before.

In the blink of an eye, it pounced in front of Xun Yan.

Xun Yan didn't have time to use the Earth Concealment Technique, so he could only use the Thunderclap Sword to parry.

The immense impact caused him and the Earth-Slaying Spider to plummet towards the bottom of the basin.

At this point, the weakness of the Earth Concealment Technique becomes apparent: it cannot be used in mid-air.

Fortunately, the basin was not particularly deep, and the previous tempering by heavenly lightning had given Xun Yan a relatively strong body.

So even though it hit the ground hard, Xun Yan was not seriously injured.

At the same time, a bolt of tribulation lightning descended from the sky, striking not only the Earth-Attack Spider but also Xun Yan.

"He does have some brains. He actually thought of using the tribulation lightning to attack me. He probably thought that if he couldn't kill me, he would perish with me. He's really vicious!"

"But unfortunately, this level of tribulation lightning doesn't do much harm to me right now," Xun Yan thought to himself with a smile.

With the combination of the Immovable Heavenly Thunder Body and the Thunderclap Sword, the heavenly lightning not only failed to harm Xun Yan, but also indirectly helped Xun Yan replenish some of his spiritual power.

Even so, Xun Yan didn't want to get too close to the Earth-Attack Spider anymore; who knew if it would get angry and self-destruct?

Using the Earth Concealment Technique once again, Xun Yan created distance once more.

Before the second bolt of lightning could strike, the hairs on Xun Yan's body suddenly stood on end, and an even more terrifying aura emanated from the entrance to the secret realm not far away.
