Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

Chapter 58 The Three Ultimate Talents of the Death Prison Spider King (Part 2)

The mountains and rivers seemed to block the way, but then a village appeared amidst the willows and flowers.

Yesterday, Ling Bai thought he was going to miss a good opportunity to befriend Xu Jiujiu. But just now, he felt that Xu Jiujiu was doomed and that a mere Soul King would not be able to escape the pursuit of thousands of snakes. Unexpectedly, he ran into her without even looking for her!

Fate is truly wondrous!

However, Xu Jiujiu was in a rather disheveled state at the moment, facing a silver-threaded celestial python with six thousand years of cultivation.

The silver-striped python has a long, slender body with a thin silver line running along its dark back. Its sharp teeth are clearly visible as it opens and closes its mouth, with venom dripping from the tips, indicating that it is in a state of heightened excitement.

The Silver-Threaded Heavenly Python is a male soul beast with a very high cultivation level among snakes. It regards the Snake Queen Medusa as its dream lover and has been licking her for two thousand years!

If we help Medusa vent her anger this time, and the Queen is pleased, we might just be able to win the beautiful snake back!

Hey!

The Silver-Threaded Python was overjoyed and couldn't help but enjoy her happy future. However, after a long time, she was extremely miserable. Her Star Crown Martial Soul was more inclined towards support and control, and her cultivation path was similar to that of Yao Haoxuan, a disciple of Shrek Academy's inner court. However, the physical enhancement provided by the Star Crown was far less than that of Yao Haoxuan, and could even be said to be negligible.

After fleeing for a long time, the Land of Eternal Night was shrouded in darkness all day long. She dared not light a fire or use the Star Crown for illumination. Her exquisite and beautiful clothes were torn in many places by the thorn bushes, and her delicate skin bled profusely. In her panic, she did not know where she had lost her storage soul tool. She also had to face the fierce 6,000-year-old Silver Thread Sky Python.

Upon discovering that Xu Jiujiu was in trouble, Ling Bai did not immediately come to her rescue. As a great sage once said: "Adding flowers to brocade a hundred times is not as good as providing charcoal in the snow once."

Wait a long time for the despair in your heart to ferment again, until the world turns completely dark, that is the best time to make a move.

The Silver-Threaded Heavenly Python spat out a venom. Although her combat power was almost zero compared to it, the nerve reflexes attached to her level 50 soul power helped her roll to the side and barely dodge the venom.

Having failed in its first attack, the Silver-Threaded Python simply abandoned its long-range assault and took to the air, its tail whipping out like a whip towards Xu Jiujiu.

"boom!"

Her delicate body flew backward and crashed heavily into a towering tree, causing leaves to flutter down. Her vision remained blurred for a long time, a metallic taste rose in her throat, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

The silver-threaded python became even more excited. Its seemingly soft and boneless body swayed in front of Xu Jiujiu, its long tail coiling around her and then slowly tightening. The woman's fragile bones made a sound as if they were about to break!

She wanted to resist for a long time, but her body could no longer support her, and her beautiful eyes gradually lost their luster.

At the critical moment, the Silver Thread Python suddenly let out a shrill scream. After a long while, it felt the immense force that had almost broken its body loosen. In a daze, it felt a blurry figure appear before its eyes, much like a light that saves people from despair.

"Miss Xu, we meet again."

The voice was very familiar, as if I had heard it before. After a long while, my gaze fell on the figure. His body was covered with a purplish-black shield armor that was neither scale nor armor. There were eight bulges on his back that were writhing wildly, as if something terrifying was sealed inside.

"Is it you?"

After a long while, she finally saw Ling Bai's face clearly and exclaimed in surprise. Then she saw the silver-threaded serpent pouncing from behind Ling Bai with its blood-red maw wide open!

According to scholars, the lower jaw and skull of snakes are connected only by ligaments. Pythons can open their mouths to several times the size of their heads, swallowing prey much larger than themselves! The silver-striped python's mouth can be so large that it can swallow a yaks!

"Be careful!"

Xu Jiujiu, ignoring the pain, got up and pushed Ling Bai away, but to her surprise, Ling Bai didn't move an inch!

"Snap—"

With the sound of clothes tearing, eight ferocious, enormous spider legs unfolded, their bodies purplish-black with a touch of scarlet at the tips. The wind howled, and fallen leaves drifted down, casting a layer of deathly blood color over the eternally dark land of night!

Martial Soul Possession, Death Prison Spider Emperor!

The Silver-Threaded Heavenly Python's body, forged over six thousand years, was like paper before the Death Prison Spider King. A spider leg suddenly pierced through its lower jaw, penetrating its brain and skull. Before losing consciousness, the Silver-Threaded Heavenly Python couldn't even react—wasn't it supposed to devour this damned human? Why was it limply hanging on a spider leg?!

"you……"

He swallowed hard, unable to speak as if something was stuck in his throat.

A light that saves humanity from despair?

Stop being funny!

This sinister and deathly aura clearly indicates a wicked soul master who devours people!

Xu Jiujiu immediately deflated. She had originally wanted to save Ling Bai's life, but instead she had fallen into a wolf's den after escaping a tiger's mouth. She closed her eyes as if resigned to her fate, showing a do-or-die attitude.

"Miss Xu Jiu'er, I've helped you again. While I wouldn't repay this life-saving debt with my body, I should at least offer you a sincere thank you."

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiujiu opened her eyes and saw that Ling Bai had already withdrawn the Death Prison Spider King and was leaning against a big tree, watching her leisurely.

"You're not going to kill me?" she asked blankly.

Evil Soul Masters are the embodiment of all negative words in the Soul Master world, such as cruelty, bloodthirstiness, and violence. Judging from her eyesight, even the Death Prison Spider King would be at the pinnacle of evil martial souls, and Ling Bai must be even more bloodthirsty.

Ling Bai calmly replied, "If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have bothered saving you. What, are evil spirit masters not allowed to have a good deed?"

A wicked spirit master? Suddenly struck by kindness?

How did you manage to connect these two completely unrelated words?

After a long silence of disapproval, and then realizing that Ling Bai's words made sense, she slightly bent her knees and performed the Star Luo Empire court etiquette towards him, sincerely saying:

"Thank you for saving me twice, young master. I didn't have a chance to ask your name last time. Would it be convenient for you to tell me?"

"Ning Bai".

Sincerity begets sincerity, and false names beget false names; Ling Bai was naturally not going to be foolish enough to tell Xu Jiujiu the truth.

"By the way, how did Miss Xu get chased by a thousand-year-old soul beast? Where are your guards?" Ling Bai asked.

"To protect me... he didn't hesitate to self-destruct, holding back the ten-thousand-year-old Medusa and the fifty-thousand-year-old Underworld Emperor Demon!"

The elder who had protected her for so many years had died so tragically, leaving not even a complete body. Her eyes welled up with tears again, and an overwhelming sense of desolation washed over her. She wiped away her tears and looked at Ling Bai, saying:

"I am now in dire straits, and you have saved my life. I am far from deserving to be called 'Miss.' Moreover, I have a request, and I hope you can grant it!"

Tell me about it.

"Please lead me out of the Radiant Forest!"

Xu Jiujiu knew in his heart that there was no way he could escape the swarm of snakes and leave the Youyao Forest safely by himself, so he decisively tried to build a relationship with Ling Bai and use Ling Bai's power to achieve his wish!

Those beautiful eyes were bright and clear. A princess has a princess's decisions. So what if the evil spirit master is wicked? Survival is the only right path!

"It's too small; its scope is too narrow!"

Ling Bai opened his arms, and the subtle curve of his lips looked dangerous in Xu Jiujiu's eyes.

"You can be even bolder! Let's kill Medusa and the Underworld Demon King together, then leave the Radiant Forest!"
