Chapter 1114: The Attack Begins

Chapter 1114: Chapter 1114: The Attack Begins

Fang Bai and his three companions were originally only a dozen yards away from Han Xingyu and the others, close enough to support each other, but now they were separated by dozens of Scarlet Poison Spiders. It was as if they were separated by an insurmountable chasm. Seeing this, the couple Hu Ren and his wife felt even more desperate.

The bodies of the Scarlet Poison Spiders naturally emitted an invisible toxin. At the moment, countless Scarlet Poison Spiders gathered together, and the invisible toxin they emitted spread through the air. Some of the weaker Heaven Level Martial Artists had already started to experience dizziness, incessant vomiting, and other symptoms.

Other Martial Artists began to circulate their True Yuan and formed Defense Qi Shields around their bodies to prevent the surrounding toxins from invading.

However, at this rate, their True Yuan would eventually be depleted. At that time, the Scarlet Poison Spiders wouldn’t even need to attack; the Martial Artists would be trapped to death.

Everyone at the scene, apart from Fang Bai, was silently bemoaning their fate.

"That Spider Queen must be nearly a thousand years old; it’s almost a High Rank Spirit Beast..." Tsk, tsk, if I could get its Spirit Core, I could exchange it for a lot of Cultivation Resources!"

In the swarm of spiders, Fang Bai immediately spotted the Spider Queen, the largest and most brightly colored of them. His eyes lit up at the sight.

The Spider Queen was the leader of the numerous Scarlet Poison Spiders, and all the actions of the swarm were directed by it.

Compared to the other Poisonous Spiders, the Spider Queen was undoubtedly the most formidable.

Its scarlet carapace was extremely tough, and the toxicity of its venom and silk was several times stronger than that of the other spiders.

Fang Bai thought that even for someone like Han Xingyu, a mid-tier Vast Level powerhouse, facing the Spider Queen would mean nothing but flight.

Next to him, True Yuan surged—it was the couple Hu Ren and his wife, who had begun to circulate their True Yuan and formed a Defense Qi Shield around themselves for protection.

Looking at the young Hu Yi, who was held in the arms of Miao Feng, his face was pale as paper, and his expression was one of deep discomfort. It was clear that some of the toxin that had spread through the air had entered his body when he breathed. Now, like an ordinary person without any Protective True Essence, how could he withstand it?

Faced with the slowly approaching Scarlet Poison Spiders, Fang Bai did not show the same tension and vigilance as the other Martial Artists. Instead, he chose to ignore them. He squatted down next to Hu Yi and lightly patted him, saying, "Hu Yi, sit up cross-legged and try to circulate the Cultivation Technique you’ve learned."

With that single pat from Fang Bai, he had infused a strand of Chaos Origin Energy into Hu Yi’s body.

"Brother Bai, Yi’er is in no condition to sit..."

Before Hu Ren could finish his sentence, he saw his son Hu Yi struggle out of his mother’s embrace, then sit cross-legged on the large rock, slightly closing his eyes. Faint True Yuan began circulating around his body. Within a few breaths, he entered a Cultivation State.

"This..."

"Yi’er he..."

Hu Ren and Miao Feng exchanged looks, feeling as if they were in a dream, unable to believe what they were seeing.

After their son Hu Yi had been injured, his meridians were all severed and his Martial Artist Aura had completely disappeared. But now, True Yuan was circulating around his body, and he could even enter a Cultivation State, just like what a normal Martial Artist could achieve. How could this not amaze Hu Ren and his wife?

"This is real! This is real!"

Hu Ren pinched himself hard to confirm he wasn’t dreaming, then yelled out excitedly.

"Um, I know... I know..."

Miao Feng nodded vigorously, her gaze landing on Fang Bai, knowing that the changes occurring in her son must be related to him.

"I had intended to wait until this matter was over before treating your son’s injuries, but now I’ve changed my mind! I have just infused a strand of True Yuan into your son’s body. In about two hours, his severed meridians will be reconnected. Once your son exits the cultivation state, have him swallow these two bottles of elixirs to attempt a breakthrough to the Heaven Level High Rank realm!"

Fang Bai spoke, then flipped his right palm to reveal a bottle of medium-grade Gathering Yuan Pill and a bottle of medium-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill, casually tossing them to Hu Ren.

Hu Yi, with decent potential and only fifteen years old, was already a Heaven Level beginner Martial Artist. With the strand of Chaos Origin Energy that Fang Bai had transferred into him, along with the two medium-grade elixirs, not only could he recover his former strength, but he also had a good chance of advancing two minor realms and becoming a Heaven Level High Rank Martial Artist.

Both the medium-grade Gathering Yuan Pill and the medium-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill are very rare elixirs in the True Martial Realm, difficult to refine and highly valuable, especially the medium-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill, which is used for Marrow Cleansing to alter a Martial Artist’s physique. It is most suitable for lower-level Martial Artists like Hu Yi to consume.

As a Desolate Level Perfection Martial Artist, Hu Ren originally had some medium-grade elixirs, but he had to trade these precious pills for materials to refine the Nine Revolutions Rebirth Pill because of his son’s injury. Now, he was financially embarrassed, left without a single medium-grade elixir.

"Brother Bai, given the current situation, it’s very unlikely that the three of us will be able to leave alive, while you might have a chance. So... please take the elixirs back. We don’t want to waste them. For the kindness you have shown my son Yi’er, I can only repay you in the next life."

Hu Ren looked around at the Scarlet Poison Spiders, his face filled with sorrow as he attempted to return the elixirs to Fang Bai.

Fang Bai chuckled and said, "Just a bunch of Poisonous Spiders can’t take our lives! Keep the elixirs and do as I just told you!"

He paused, then flipped his hand and took out a jade pendant, hanging it around Hu Yi’s neck. He turned to a puzzled Hu Ren and said, "This jade pendant is a Spiritual Artifact. It contains several killing intents, and it can protect your son’s life at critical moments!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a shrill, agonizing scream was heard not far away.

Looking intently, it turned out to be an Individual Cultivation Martial Artist at the Heaven Level Realm who had been suddenly struck by a Scarlet Poison Spider’s venomous silk, breaking through his Protective True Essence and landing on his left forearm. The venomous silk was extraordinarily toxic. In just a few breaths, it corroded the Martial Artist’s left forearm and the poison quickly spread upwards. Seeing this, a companion next to the injured Martial Artist had no choice but to cut off his entire right arm with a swing of a sword.

At the same time, several more screams were heard from other Martial Artists who had also been wounded by the poisonous spiders’ venomous silk.

Clearly, the Scarlet Poison Spiders had begun their attack, intending to turn these dozens of human Martial Artists into their feast.

True Yuan surged, sword light flashed, and shouts of fury filled the air as the counterattack from the dozens of Martial Artists officially began.

Though more than half of the surrounded Martial Artists were Desolate Level Martial Artists, and there were even Vast Level Martial Artists like Han Xingyu, every single Scarlet Poison Spider possessed the attack strength equivalent to an early-stage Desolate Level Martial Artist and had an absolute advantage in numbers. Thus, after a brief exchange, casualties among the Martial Artists started to occur, and the others were gradually forced into an even smaller area.

Among the human Martial Artists, there were a few who wielded Spiritual Artifacts as well—though low-grade, these weapons were extremely sharp, easily piercing the sturdy exoskeleton of the Scarlet Poison Spiders, cleaving them in two, and bringing them to their demise.

The deaths of their kin incited an even more ferocious attack from the Scarlet Poison Spiders, their venomous silk, toxic liquids, and eight knife-sharp long limbs all becoming deadly weapons in their assault.

Over by Fang Bai’s side, the Scarlet Poison Spiders also began their assault.
