Chapter 1296: Should We Subdue a Human-Faced Spider?

Speed is usually an advantage.

But sometimes, it can also become a disadvantage.

This human-faced spider was extremely cunning and made full use of that point.

If it were an ordinary Emperor-Rank fierce beast, it might have fallen for it and gotten stuck directly by these spider webs, but the Storm Eagle was different.

Although it had accidentally flown into them, the Storm Eagle still changed direction while flying at high speed; its wings swept past those spider webs, slicing through all the tough webs, and then it rose into the air once more.

The Storm Eagle let out a sharp screech, and countless wind blades swept out in all directions.

Su Yang clearly sensed the Storm Eagle's… utter exasperation.

"Took a hit… hahaha!"

A certain unscrupulous beast-tamer laughed.

Su Yang was in the darkness, and although he didn't know exactly what had happened to make the Storm Eagle so exposed, that didn't stop him from teasing the Storm Eagle a little.

Of course, Su Yang wasn't really doing nothing.

He quickly contacted the Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly outside the darkness.

The Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly told him that the human-faced spider's darkness barrier was extremely powerful, almost covering an area of five hundred kilometers in radius.

Even Liu Mengyun's Ice Moon Elf had been enveloped within it.

Hearing this news, Su Yang wasn't worried about the Ice Moon Elf's ability to protect itself; he was simply marveling at the strength the human-faced spider had displayed.

But thinking it over carefully, he could still accept it.

After all, this human-faced spider was truly extraordinary.

Beast Emperor + mutation — a dual rarity. He estimated that on the entire Water Blue Planet, there was probably only this one.

Su Yang quickly notified the Void Spirit, telling it to watch the human-faced spider's movements.

Once the human-faced spider left the darkness barrier, hold it in place immediately!

While Su Yang was marveling at the human-faced spider's strength, the human-faced spider hiding in the darkness was equally marveling at the Storm Eagle's strength.

The enraged Storm Eagle condensed countless powerful wind blades, almost bombarding the entire area within its darkness barrier.

Those wind blades were not only absurdly powerful, far exceeding the level of an Emperor-Rank Mid-Grade fierce beast.

The wind blades were also as fast as lightning; even though it had a huge boost to its movement within the darkness barrier, it still suffered no light an injury.

One wind blade nearly split it in two!

The human-faced spider looked at the wounds on its body, cold sweat breaking out all over its head.

The human-faced spider opened its great mouth wide, and countless white silk flew toward the Storm Eagle, but before this silk could even get close to the Storm Eagle, it was blown apart by the Storm Eagle in a few flaps.

Thus, the human-faced spider began to think of retreating.

Because it had already discovered that the Storm Eagle still possessed extremely high perception within its Dark Sky skill!

One must know that the Dark Sky skill was the human-faced spider's strongest skill.

This Beast Emperor human-faced spider, relying on this skill, had no idea how many enemies it had taken down!

Before encountering the Storm Eagle, once any enemy fell into the darkness barrier, they would all be like headless flies, losing all sense of perception and direction…

The Beast Emperor human-faced spider felt that it might have met its greatest enemy in life!

It glanced at Su Yang standing on the Storm Eagle, and finally made up its mind.

As everyone knows, a human beast-tamer has more than one pet beast.

Once it had made up its mind, it no longer hesitated.

The darkness quickly receded, and Su Yang regained his visual perception. He looked toward the west, where a patch of dark heaven and earth was rapidly moving westward.

Even while fleeing for its life, the human-faced spider hadn't forgotten to bring its darkness barrier along.

The Storm Eagle directly gave chase. Su Yang glanced at the Storm Eagle's wings — the Storm Eagle's left wing was covered in spider webs.

The Storm Eagle had indeed taken a hit.

But it probably wasn't serious.

Seeing that the Storm Eagle was about to unleash Tornado Blades, Su Yang stopped it.

The Storm Eagle called out: "Master!"

Its tone carried a hint of unwillingness.

"Don't waste energy — Tornado Blades might not be able to finish it off!" Su Yang said. "Going at it like this, the efficiency is a bit low!"

"Yes!"

No matter how unwilling the Storm Eagle was, it obeyed Su Yang's command.

Su Yang was not going to let this Beast Emperor go.

Having come once, he didn't want to have to come again in the future.

He glanced at the Ice Moon Elf — at a time like this, he could have the Ice Moon Elf directly freeze everything within the darkness barrier solid.

He only thought about it for a moment, then decided to switch to another method.

With a light wave of his hand, Elder Yan Mo appeared beside Su Yang.

"Elder Yan Mo, burn its barrier down for me!"

Elder Yan Mo nodded, and over a thousand Explosive Fire Eagles charged into the darkness barrier with black trailing flames.

Isn't the Flame of Destruction said to burn through anything?

Su Yang figured that the human-faced spider's darkness barrier should also fall within the energy category.

Sure enough, the moment the Explosive Fire Eagles touched the darkness barrier, it burst into raging flames!

The darkness barrier, like ice and snow, rapidly melted away!

One minute later, the rapidly moving darkness barrier was reduced to a radius of only four hundred kilometers.

Two and a half minutes later, the darkness barrier was only two hundred kilometers in radius.

Three minutes later, the dark barrier had shrunk to a radius of only fifty kilometers…

Explosion Elder Yan Mo laughed very happily.

Su Yang laughed along, feeling all along that it was a group of pirated Storm Eagles defeating the genuine article.

He stared at the continuously shrinking dark barrier, and suddenly had the thought of subduing this Human-Faced Spider!

Su Yang's beast companion could level up by relying on experience points gained from hunting fierce beasts.

But the system's evaluation was a bit mechanical.

The experience points gained from killing an Emperor-Rank Mid-Grade genius fierce beast were the same as those from killing an ordinary Emperor-Rank Mid-Grade fierce beast.

Killing a once-in-a-century, extraordinarily talented Emperor-Rank fierce beast like this was really too wasteful.

He indeed had no spare beast companion slot, but Sovereign Jiazi and Liu Mengyun both had spare beast companion slots.

A Beast Emperor was indeed not easy to subdue.

In the history of Water Blue Star, no beast tamer had ever been able to subdue a Beast Emperor.

But Su Yang didn't care.

Just because predecessors couldn't do it didn't mean successors couldn't.

If others couldn't do it, he, Su Yang, just might be able to!

One could reason with it!

Reason is universal.

"Mengyun, do you want to subdue this Human-Faced Spider?"

Liu Mengyun heard Su Yang's words and hesitated slightly.

Sovereign Jiazi, standing in the distance, heard Su Yang's words and felt a twinge of sourness in her heart.

If possible, she actually quite wanted this Human-Faced Spider Beast Emperor.

But there was no helping it — who could blame Liu Mengyun for being Su Yang's wife?

Liu Mengyun glanced at Sovereign Jiazi and suddenly said: "Give it to Jiazi!"
