Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 62 Mutant Individuals

"Ah, no!!!"

Although his body was swaying in mid-air, Xie Xie still caught a glimpse of the human-faced demon spider's movements out of the corner of his eye, and his expression changed from (ˇˇ) to Σ(д|||).

That spider spear is so big, it looks impossible to fit it in. If you did, it would probably turn him into a skewer.

Moreover, this way of dying is far too painful, causing him to die completely in a physiological, psychological, and even social sense.

Unfortunately, Xie Xie was unable to adjust his position while in mid-air. Otherwise, even being impaled by the spider spears of the human-faced demon spider would have been a hundred times better than his current death.

Just as Xie Xie's buttocks were getting closer and closer to the spider spear of the human-faced demon spider, the spider suddenly froze and collapsed to the ground. A thousand-refined heavy silver hammer, carrying tremendous momentum, sent the human-faced demon spider flying.

It was a combined attack from Nan Fusheng and Tang Wulin. Fireballs were also fired towards the Human-Faced Demon Spider to prevent it from charging again; Gu Yue had made her move. Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi, who had been looking for an opportunity on the periphery, also quickly moved towards Xie Xie's location.

"Everyone, adjust your state. The hundred-year-old Human-Faced Demon Spider can only launch its web three times a day at most, and it has just used it all. Xie Xie, stay close to me and keep watch."

Gu Yue continued to interfere. Wu Lin, use your Blue Silver Grass to control it for a while. I will find an opportunity to control the Human-Faced Demon Spider. Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi can take this opportunity to use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill to decide the outcome.

Nan Fusheng, positioned at the center of the group, calmly directed everyone's division of labor.

The human-faced spider, which had been knocked away by the crowd, seemed to have recovered its senses and roared at the six people, including Nan Fusheng, who were gathered together.

The eight spider spears rubbed against the ground, and the spider's entire body began to press down, as if it would pounce at any moment.

"It's here." The members of Class Zero watched as the human-faced spider constantly adjusted its shape and immediately began to concentrate. The next second, the human-faced spider forcefully launched itself backward.

It just ran away, ran away!!?

The members of Class Zero were completely dumbfounded; they hadn't expected the human-faced spider to choose to run away so readily...

"Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi, be on guard. The rest of you, take a break."

Nan Fusheng spoke directly to the two men, and the others did not object. As for why they didn't chase after them, no one would be that foolish. The Human-Faced Demon Spider was known as the "Forest Assassin," and if they really chased after it, they might actually be killed instead.

"Phew... that scared me to death! Fusheng, Wulin, I'm so grateful, I'll treat you to dinner when we get back."

Upon hearing the word "rest," Xie Xie plopped down on the ground and addressed Nan Fusheng and Tang Wulin. The scene that had just unfolded was truly terrifying; even now, recalling it made his rear end tense.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's wrong with treating two people to dinner? We're all a team, you can't eat alone."

Hearing Xie Xie's words, Wang Jinxi, who was on guard nearby, teased him. After the recent battle, his fear of the human-faced spider had lessened considerably, and he believed that he would completely forget his initial fear in a few days.

The main reason was that Xie Xie had almost experienced the "pain of losing his virginity," which made Wang Jinxi involuntarily compare it to his own experience of being brutally killed by the Human-Faced Demon Spider, leaving him with psychological trauma.

But Xie Xie was almost an adult; without comparison, there's no hurt. Compared to Xie Xie, my own death didn't seem so unbearable anymore.

"Don't worry, I'm not short of money. After the final exams, I'll treat everyone to a big meal."

Perhaps because he had escaped death, Xie Xie had become extremely carefree, with an expression that said, "Young Master Xie will cover all the expenses." It was just unknown whether his wallet was enough to satisfy Tang Wulin's gluttonous appetite.

……

"Phew..." At this moment, all the staff of the Spirit Pagoda breathed a sigh of relief, including Wu Changkong.

The performance of Class Zero was being continuously played on the Soul Guidance Screen. When Xie Xie was nearly struck by the Human-Faced Demon Spider's "Thousand-Year Kill," everyone became incredibly tense.

The staff at the Spirit Pagoda were prepared for a rescue. After all, there were countless ways for Soul Masters to die on the Spirit Ascension Platform, but this was the first time someone had died like Xie Xie. The sensory transmission capabilities of the Spirit Ascension Platform were quite high.

That kind of death could be so painful that even a battle-hardened adult Soul Master could be in mortal danger. Even if they survived, it would greatly affect their life for the rest of their days.

If Xie Xie had truly died from the "Thousand-Year Kill," it would have been recorded in the annals of the Spirit Pagoda.

Fortunately, things didn't turn out the worst. The teamwork of Class Zero prevented the tragedy from happening. Looking back, even they couldn't help but praise Nan Fusheng and the others.

That's a hundred-year-old human-faced demon spider. Even a fourth or fifth-ring Soul Master would keep their distance and wouldn't dare to hunt it easily if they encountered it alone.

However, these children, whose average strength was only at the second level, miraculously forced back the powerful human-faced spider. In fact, if the spider hadn't retreated when it sensed danger, the Class Zero members might have been able to kill it. This was simply unbelievable.

"Teacher Wu, have any of these children considered joining the Spirit Pagoda? I think if we submit the details of that battle, they might be accepted exceptionally. They have so much potential."

The staff of the Spirit Pagoda finally came to their senses, their eyes filled with shock and admiration.

As a staff member of the Spirit Ascension Platform, he knew all too well the characteristics of various spirit beasts and the fighting styles of spirit masters. But just now, he was completely shocked by the imaginative and unrestrained fighting style of the students in Class Zero.

"That human-faced spider was a bit strange; it was too smart."

Instead of answering the staff member's question, Wu Changkong asked the staff member this question.

The staff member was taken aback and was about to refute, but involuntarily recalled the battle scene just now. At the beginning, the human-faced demon spider compressed the activity space of Class Zero and others in order to hunt its prey better. This was not wrong, as most spider-type soul beasts hunted their prey in this way.

However, facing Tang Wulin's deadly attack, it should have been unable to dodge it. But in fact, the human-faced demon spider seemed to have anticipated this and reserved a lot of its strength to block it.

The subsequent outrageous slashes were unlike anything a soul beast like the Human-Faced Demon Spider could wield. Facing the group of Nan Fusheng and the others who were gathered around,

Given the ferocious nature of the Man-Faced Demon Spider, it should have engaged in a life-or-death battle with them, but instead, it retreated. All of this only highlights the extraordinary nature of that Man-Faced Demon Spider.

"Perhaps that human-faced spider is a mutant, which is why it is different from other human-faced spiders."

In response to Wu Changkong's question, the staff member gave their own answer: occasionally there are mutated individuals among the soul beasts. These mutated individuals are generally much stronger than their peers, because the weak ones do not live to adulthood.

"Maybe."
