Chapter 1850

~8 min read 1,541 words

This was exceptionally abrupt, and even Xiao Wencheng was startled.

Afterward, the round body of the Cave Spider Queen filled his field of vision.

Mother Zhu started with another bunch of spider silk, first pasting his eyes.

Xiao Wencheng had witnessed Mother Zhu's fighting and knew the means of this spider queen, so he casually took out a plaque and flicked it forward.

As soon as this plaque was released, the engraved runes emitted red light, and after spinning twice, it turned into a spinning shield more than a zhang in length and width, not only blocking all the spider silk but also intending to smash Mother Zhu in the face.

The Cave Spider Queen leaped up, easily dodging the spinning shield, intending to give Xiao Wencheng a face-hug.

Its jumping ability was astonishing, and its round figure was fast and light; almost as soon as its eight legs spread out, it had already stuck to Xiao Wencheng's face.

How could Xiao Wencheng withstand its powerful hug? He shattered on the spot.

He shattered into a piece of yellow paper, with cinnabar talismans on the back.

Good fellow, he didn't know when he had replaced himself with a paper doll using a diversionary tactic!

And as soon as the paper doll shattered, it exploded into a mass of yellow mist on the spot. Mother Zhu, who was in the mist, had her body become ten times heavier, and her movements slowed down by several beats.

Delaying Technique.

Mother Zhu immediately knew something was wrong; the eyes growing on the back of her head had already spotted the golden sword stabbing over.

This thing was no joke; if Mother Zhu were stabbed, not to mention losing her eyes, she might even be pierced through the brain.

But she had plenty of methods, *whoosh*, she disappeared from the yellow mist.

Xiao Wencheng's golden sword stabbed into empty air.

It wasn't just him observing Mother Zhu; the spider queen also secretly studied the methods of every immortal in secret.

It didn't teleport away, but its figure suddenly shrank to one-tenth of its original size, only the size of a grapefruit, so the golden sword naturally stabbed into empty air.

After falling out of the yellow mist, taking advantage of Xiao Wencheng's move being exhausted, Mother Zhu returned to her original form and sprayed spider silk at him again.

The two sides entangled together.

Xiao Wencheng had deep magic power and exquisite Daoist techniques, while Mother Zhu had fierce offensive power and rich experience; for a time, it was hard to tell who was superior.

During a gap in the battle, he looked out from the gaps in the spider queen's bristly long legs and discovered that He He Lingchuan was actually fighting the Blood Demon.

How did this kid get over there? In his perception, He He Lingchuan almost flashed over instantaneously; one second he was in front of him, the next second he was behind the Blood Demon—

Following his blade.

In fact, this was a new interpretation of the Floating Life Blade's "one throw, one hit"; wherever the precious blade flew, He He Lingchuan could appear there, known as "where the blade is, the person is."

Of course, it could only be used once every fifteen breaths, but it also made up for the lack of mobility very well.

The Blood Demon almost took a blade and had just successfully dodged when He He Lingchuan appeared behind it, turned the hilt, and performed a Full Moon Slash!

Ever since entering the Upside-Down Sea, he had been intentionally avoiding fighting, even when fighting the Heavenly Demons and demon immortals of the Heavenly Palace in the mine, it was Elder Liu who attacked, while He He Lingchuan assisted.

The precious blade hid its edge, all to amaze the world with a single feat! Wherever the blade passed, the red mist melted away.

The Blood Demon was almost sliced in two by the blade; it didn't even have time to scream before shrinking toward the rear. He He Lingchuan followed like a shadow, *swish swish*, two more blades, simple and unadorned. The Blood Demon tried its best to dodge, but still took a hit, feeling as if it were a sausage being chopped, in unbearable pain.

The most terrifying thing was that faint black smoke emerged from the blade edge, and as soon as it touched the red mist, it burned with a *whoosh*, as if the Blood Demon were the best fuel.

If it didn't abandon its attachments, it would be burned away in two and a half strokes!

"Karmic fire, karmic fire, detestable!" Regardless of He He Lingchuan swinging his blade again, the Blood Demon fled into the forest without looking back, and another bit of red mist was shaved off.

It was a collection of countless blood sins, so naturally, it hated karmic debt the most! Being entangled by this kind of thing was like having one's neck tightened, in unbearable pain.

Who could have imagined that karmic fire could be used so casually by a practitioner! Is this reasonable?

Over there, Elder Ning's flying wheel hadn't smashed into Dong Rui's face yet when this person *whoosh*, escaped into the ground.

Elder Ning couldn't help but be stunned.

Wait, this is already the Immortal Venerable's territory, and outsiders' escape techniques are forbidden!

How did Dong Rui sneak down?

They naturally didn't know that the Mirage Immortal's horn powder had been made into other products, such as Earth-Escaping Talismans, Passage Talismans, and the like.

He He Lingchuan had anticipated that the trip to the Upside-Down Sea would be extremely dangerous, and that they would be acting on the Mirage Immortal's territory, so how could he not make preparations? Elder Ning pointed his hand, and the flying wheel made a turn, chasing Dong Rui and stabbing straight into the ground!

Thinking that escaping into the ground is safe? I'll dig seven feet into the ground to dig you out!

With a *bang*, the flying wheel went down with the "Multi-Gift Powder," followed by a big explosion after stabbing into the ground, and the ground was also blasted into a large pit.

If Dong Rui had only dived such a small distance, he would already be riddled with holes by now.

Dong Rui drove the Snail Toad to escape more than a hundred zhang underground, then suddenly transmitted to He He Lingchuan: "Bad, I seem to be spinning in place, I can't get out of the barrier!"

The Snail Toad was clearly walking in a straight line, but walking and walking, it always passed by similar landmarks, such as a giant yellow rock buried deep underground, which he had already seen twice.

This showed that he was going in circles and hadn't left the barrier range at all.

He He Lingchuan frowned, not surprised at all.

Thousand Illusions must have tried every means to keep him within the barrier, and it was too easy to activate a few illusions. Spells like "ghost hitting the wall" were too elementary for the Mirage Immortal.

He He Lingchuan was also convinced that even if his group got rid of Xiao Wencheng's pursuit, it would likely be very difficult to rush out of the barrier range, so he didn't have everyone use the Earth-Escaping Talisman.

But the longer his side delayed, the more unfavorable Thousand Illusions' situation in the isolated Panlong City would be.

"Head to Kidney Lake!" He He Lingchuan made a decision, "Since we can't find a way out, let's go to the bottom of the lake and pull out the array eye!"

The blue Divine Fire Barrier was specifically designed to restrict the Haoyuan Golden Mirror, and the array eye was still at the bottom of Kidney Lake, still that Iron Lotus Lamp. The reason He He Lingchuan didn't go to dig it out was because running out of the barrier range directly was the most convenient.

Arrays are dead, people are alive; people can move.

But now the situation had changed, and he didn't mind changing his means.

"Good."

Over there, Elder Ning was about to recall the flying wheel when he felt wind behind his head.

The Ghost Ape was swinging its rod, intending to beat his crown.

Over the past two months, it had been eating the Imperial Flowing Plasma as meals, and Dong Rui had modified it twice, changing its body size smaller and smaller. By now, its height was only eight feet, only two circles larger than the Black Armored soldiers, and its muscles had tightened, not like the small mountain it was originally.

Having been by He He Lingchuan's side for a long time, Dong Rui had also become pragmatic, no longer pursuing large and useless gorgeous appearances.

Although the visual effect wasn't as scary, the Ghost Ape's strength had increased, and its agility was astonishing. Just a single rod coming down from the head gave people the illusion that a hundred or a thousand rods were coming at once, making even Elder Ning feel suffocated by the wind, as if he were about to be pressed to the ground.

Even if the rod didn't hit the target, the gale it brought could press a person into a meat patty.
