Douro Continent

Chapter 306 The Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Cave Demon Spider (Part 2)

In an instant, everyone's minds went blank. Although Xiao Wu was probably stabbed in the right chest, how potent was the venom of the Human-Faced Demon Spider? Xiao Wu's body must have been pierced through. With such an injury and the domineering venom of the Human-Faced Demon Spider, there was no way Xiao Wu could survive.

Everything happened so fast it was almost impossible to see with the naked eye. Xiao Wu's body was thrown out by the spider spear, flying nearly twenty meters away, but her hand was still tightly gripping the fragrant Qiluo Immortal Herb, refusing to let go no matter what.

Xiao Wu was thrown away, and the human-faced spider seemed to be stunned for a moment. Although it had achieved its goal of attacking Xiao Wu, it had failed to obtain the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item.

"Die!" The fat man who was closest to the target was the first to erupt. Its Phoenix Wings Soaring to the Sky had finally condensed and, carrying scorching flames, crashed into the human-faced demon spider from the side with all its might.

At the same time, Liu Erlong, her eyes bloodshot, rushed forward after catching the master. Xiao Wu had pushed the master aside at the last second, escaping danger. This alone was enough to fill Liu Erlong with gratitude. Seeing that she had no chance of surviving the attack of the human-faced spider, Liu Erlong's violent rage reached its peak.

Amidst a near-mad dragon roar, the flames erupting from her entire body condensed into a gigantic fire dragon, catching up with the human-faced demon spider that had been knocked several meters away by Phoenix Wing Sky Soar, and instantly engulfing it.

The human-faced demon spider, with six thousand years of cultivation, struggled in the terrifying dragon-shaped flames, but could not escape the powerful suction force of the flames.

Flames inherently have a restraining effect on poisonous creatures. Both Fatty's phoenix flames and Liu Erlong's dragon flames are among the most powerful flames. Fatty's flames have stronger adhesion and are more insidious, while Liu Erlong's dragon flames have only one characteristic: explosiveness. Under the combined effect of these two flames, even the hard shell of the Human-Faced Demon Spider softened instantly, and its entire body trembled violently.

The third to arrive was not the flying Flander, but Tang San, who descended from the sky. Seeing Xiao Wu in danger, Tang San shouted as he leaped from behind Flander. His Blue Silver Grass barely condensed into wings in the air, propelling him gliding towards them.

Unfortunately, everything happened far too fast. Even though Tang San had given it his all, he still couldn't get there before the Man-Faced Demon Spider pierced Xiao Wu.

Seeing Xiao Wu being thrown away, Tang San's heart froze instantly, as if it had stopped beating, and he couldn't even breathe. Looking at the flames below, his eyes were completely vacant; like a moth drawn to a flame, he still fell.

"Get out of the way! Are you looking for death?" Liu Erlong was shocked. She knew all too well how domineering her dragon flame was. Tang San had wings formed from Blue Silver Grass that allowed him to glide, yet he had simply fallen. Everyone knew Tang San's position in Grandmaster's heart, and Liu Erlong naturally didn't want him to perish in her dragon flame like that.

However, Tang San seemed to hear nothing and continued to descend towards the Human-Faced Demon Spider's body. Helpless, Liu Erlong had no choice but to stop outputting her dragon flames. But even so, the dragon-shaped flames did not immediately extinguish.

Tang San's Eight Spider Lances, braving the dragon flames, pierced straight down. From the perspective of the Shrek Academy students, he looked as if he were lying on the back of the Human-Faced Demon Spider.

The Eight Spider Spears were already sharp, and now the shell of the Human-Faced Demon Spider had been softened considerably by the scorching of the Phoenix Flame and Dragon Flame. The Eight Spider Spears pierced into the shell of the Human-Faced Demon Spider almost instantly, with the first half completely submerged. In an instant, white and red light rose from Tang San's body. A strange scene occurred: even with Liu Erlong's powerful Dragon Flame, it was unable to penetrate within a foot of Tang San's body.

The moment the eight spider spears pierced the body of the human-faced demon spider, the spider trembled violently, its entire body seemingly freezing in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, its body stopped struggling and began to tremble rapidly. Tang San's Eight Spider Lances, which were stuck in its body, instantly turned pale white. It seemed that streams of light were constantly flowing through the human-faced demon spider's body and being absorbed into Tang San's body through the Eight Spider Lances.

No one knew what was happening. Because Tang San was crawling on the ground, no one could see his facial expression. But with Xiao Wu's life hanging in the balance, everyone could understand the pain Tang San was feeling. Liu Erlong was about to rush forward and pull Tang San away when she was stopped by the Grandmaster who had caught up.

"He'll be fine, save Xiao Wu first." Grandmaster knew something about the Eight Spider Lances' devouring ability. In addition, the Human-Faced Demon Spider had already lost half its life in Liu Erlong's dragon flames, and now Tang San's Eight Spider Lances had pierced its vital points. This Human-Faced Demon Spider, with its six thousand years of cultivation, was powerless to resist.

Oscar had already rushed to Xiao Wu's side. In the process of running, he had summoned a small sausage and a large recovery sausage. Xiao Wu's body had not moved since she fell to the ground. He rushed over and carefully helped Xiao Wu up.

Large spurts of blood flowed from Xiao Wu's mouth, but to Oscar's surprise, there was no blood on her chest.

"Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu, how are you?" Oscar gently shook Xiao Wu's body, but at this moment he couldn't get Xiao Wu to eat his big sausage.

Flander had already landed beside Xiao Wu, grabbed one of her hands, pressed on her wrist, and slowly transferred his soul power into Xiao Wu's body.

"Huh..." Flander's face quickly showed surprise and doubt. "How could this be?"

Oscar's heart tightened. The Shrek Seven Devils had been together for so long, and their friendship was extremely deep. Putting aside the fact that Xiao Wu was Tang San's sister, this friendship alone made him extremely worried about Xiao Wu's situation. "Dean, is there any hope for Xiao Wu?"

A smile suddenly appeared on Flander's face. He pulled Xiao Wu up, turned around behind her, and struck her back seven times in succession.

With a loud "whoosh," Xiao Wu spat out another mouthful of purplish-black blood. Supported by Flander's palms, she slowly opened her eyes.

"What... what's going on?" Oscar stared dumbfounded at the scene before him. He couldn't understand why Xiao Wu was still alive after being pierced so powerfully by the Human-Faced Demon Spider. He had originally come over, intending to do his best and leave the rest to fate. But now, although Xiao Wu's face was a little pale, it didn't seem like what everyone had previously judged.

Flander said, "She's fine, she just held her breath for a moment. Xiao Wu, how are you feeling?" As he spoke, he slowly channeled his soul power into Xiao Wu's body, helping her regulate her breathing and calm her turbulent blood and qi.

Xiao Wu's voice was a little hoarse, "My chest feels tight, a bit stuffy. Otherwise, I'm fine. Don't worry, I won't die."

As she spoke, Xiao Wu slowly reached into her bosom, and under the watchful eyes of Flander and Oscar, a vibrant flower appeared in her hand—the very same 'Heartbreak Red'.

It turned out that when Xiao Wu saw that she could not dodge all the attacks of the human-faced spider, she tried her best to curl up her body, but was still thrown away by a spider spear. The spider spear just happened to pierce the "Heartbreak Red of Longing" in her arms.

Before recognizing a master, the "Heartbreak Red" flower couldn't be obtained by external force. After recognizing Xiao Wu as its master, it possessed an indestructible quality, more resilient than anything else. Although the Human-Faced Demon Spider's attack was powerful, it couldn't damage this extraordinary celestial flower. Otherwise, Xiao Wu's body wouldn't have been sent flying; she would have been pierced directly by the spider's spear. The Fragrant Silk Celestial Flower in her hand would naturally have ended up in the Human-Faced Demon Spider's possession.

Even Xiao Wu never expected that her pity in not consuming this rare and precious delicacy would actually save her life.

With the help of Flander's soul power, Xiao Wu barely managed to muster her strength and ate one of Oscar's recovery sausages. Her spirits immediately improved. At this moment, she also noticed Tang San and the human-faced demon spider's appearance, and her face immediately changed color.

"My brother, he..."

The master and the others noticed Xiao Wu's situation as well, and after Xiao Wu explained, they understood what was going on. The master said, "Xiao San will be alright. If I'm not mistaken, its Eight Spider Lances are currently ending the life of that Human-Faced Demon Spider. I just don't know if it's going to absorb the soul ring of this soul beast, or if it will still choose that Cave Demon Spider."

The treacherous cave spider, after being restrained by Flander, lay to one side, now face up on the ground. Flander, disgusted by its cunning, had severed all its legs, making escape impossible.

Perhaps because Liu Erlong's dragon flames were too terrifying, most of the soul beasts outside the poison array had gradually retreated, with only a few particularly powerful ones still staring at the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item in Xiao Wu's hand and refusing to leave.

"Xiao San, Xiao Wu is alright." Flander shouted in Tang San's direction.

Flander's decision was absolutely correct. Upon hearing the name "Xiao Wu," Tang San, who had been bowing his head on the back of the Man-Faced Demon Spider, slowly raised his head. Everyone noticed that his eyes had turned red again at some point. Within the red light, a purple-gold radiance flowed.
