Chapter 1116: Chapter 1116: A Bit Crazy
Fang Bai pulled out the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, originally intending to unleash a slaughter, but he was taken aback when the Scarlet Poison Spiders started to retreat.
Then, Fang Bai remembered that the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade in his hand was not just an ordinary Spiritual Artifact. Its rank was so high that he couldn’t see through it with his own eyes, and it was very likely a Divine Artifact that had fallen into the mortal world.
Within the blade of the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, countless amounts of Martial Artist and Spirit Beast blood had been absorbed. From inside out, the blade emitted a dense and oppressive aura of slaughter. Weaker Martial Artists, by just one glance at it, would see violent bloody illusions and might even fall into a state of madness.
Fang Bai speculated that the reason the Scarlet Poison Spiders recoiled in fear upon seeing the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade was likely because the blade had absorbed the blood of a Spirit Beast that was even more venomous and powerful than them, or perhaps the blood of their natural predator.
"Brother Hu, if you get a chance, leave without waiting for me! I’m going to kill some enemies!"
Seeing the retreat of the Scarlet Poison Spiders, Fang Bai, who was itching for a major battle, grew impatient. He left a message for Hu Ren and his wife Miao Feng, and then, holding the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, he leaped down from a large rock and chased after the rapidly retreating Scarlet Poison Spiders.
The Spider Queen, who had been commanding the spider swarm to attack dozens of Martial Artists, also seemed to notice Fang Bai with the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade pursuing her. She rapidly waved her two front limbs, apparently signaling a retreat.
In an instant, the thousands of Scarlet Poison Spiders, which had surged forward like a tidal wave, retreated just as quickly.
The dozens of Martial Artists who had been desperately fighting to survive did not expect the sudden retreat of the Scarlet Poison Spiders. Some of them did not react in time and continued to crazily swing their fists and legs, launching blasts of Essence Energy until their companions shouted loudly, prompting them to gradually stop.
Dozens of Martial Artists stared dumbfounded at the retreating Scarlet Poison Spiders. Once they were sure it was safe, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. Many of the Martial Artists’ legs went weak and they collapsed on the ground. The joy of narrowly escaping death surged through everyone’s heart, and some couldn’t help but cry.
On the ground lay several ghastly white skeletons, which were the remains of a few Martial Artists whose flesh had been corroded by the venomous silk and venom.
Fang Bai, holding the blade, broke into an area engulfed by Scarlet Poison Spiders, moving away with the retreating spiders. Due to his incredibly fast movement technique, except for Han Xingyu, no other Martial Artists noticed his presence.
"The spiders have retreated, let’s move up quickly!"
Some of the regained Martial Artists shouted loudly.
Thus, except for the ten disciples of Xuannv Sect and the family of Hu Ren, Miao Feng, and Hu Yi, the other dozens of Martial Artists quickly found some vines on the cliff and began to climb up.
"Elder Han, what should we do?"
Zhuge Lian put away her long sword and asked Han Xingyu who was beside her.
Han Xingyu looked up and then frowned, "The people of Dragon Tiger Palace are probably still up there. If we go up now, we’ll be forced into a fierce battle. They have more people and are stronger—we can’t compete with them!"
She glanced in the direction where the Scarlet Poison Spiders had retreated, then waved her hand and said, "The path where the spiders retreated should be free of any more Spirit Beasts. Let’s follow them and figure out what to do as we go!"
Ten disciples of the Xuannv Sect, led by Han Xingyu, swiftly flew towards the direction where the Scarlet Poison Spider had retreated, keeping a distance of nearly a kilometer. This arrangement ensured that if the Scarlet Poison Spider attacked again, they would have ample preparation and reaction time to climb swiftly from the cliffs on both sides.
After dozens of Martial Artists left, only Hu Ren, Miao Feng, and their son Hu Yi remained at the scene.
"Yi’er’s father, I’ve heard there are many Spirit Beasts at the bottom of this gorge. What if other Spirit Beasts attack us?"
Miao Feng glanced at her son Hu Yi, who was still in his Cultivation State, then looked around, her heart racing with fear that a powerful Spirit Beast might suddenly appear.
Hu Ren was worried too, but he saw that his son was at a critical moment in his cultivation and couldn’t leave. Pretending to be unconcerned, he said, "What’s there to fear? As long as we don’t get ambushed by a group of Spirit Beasts like before, the two of us can handle it! Hehe, the Spiritual Artifact Brother Bai gave us is much more powerful than what we used before! Also, Brother Bai mentioned that the jade pendant he hung around Yi’er’s neck could save our lives at a critical moment. I guess it must be an exceptionally powerful protective Spiritual Artifact!"
Hu Ren’s outward calm reassured Miao Feng, who said earnestly, "That Brother Bai Fang we met by chance... he’s truly a kind soul to help us like this! If Yi’er’s injury can be healed and we can escape from here, we must never forget his great kindness today!"
"That’s for sure! It’s just..."
Hu Ren paused, a shudder running through him as he glanced in the direction from which they had retreated, and sighed, "Brother Bai’s actions just now were a bit crazy! He went after those tens of thousands of Scarlet Poison Spiders alone. If he gets surrounded..."
"Yi’er’s father, don’t speak such unlucky words!"
Before Hu Ren could finish, Miao Feng cut him off.
"Look at what I’m saying! I should be slapped!"
Hu Ren slapped himself on the face, then added, "How could I forget! Brother Bai can easily produce several Spiritual Artifacts. He wouldn’t be an ordinary Martial Artist like us. Certainly, he must have other powerful means to protect himself! Hmm, that blood-red blade of his, with its intense aura of Killing Qi and blood... I felt terrified with just one glance. It might even be a mid-grade Spiritual Artifact!"
"Good people get good karma, Brother Bai Fang will definitely be alright!"
Miao Feng clasped her hands together and silently prayed.
The couple spoke briefly, and seeing no Spirit Beasts in the vicinity, they finally settled down. They then sat down on a large rock, crossing their legs and began to circulate their Cultivation Techniques to recover the Essence Energy they had expended while also protecting their child.
After Han Xingyu led the nine disciples of the Xuannv Sect forward for about two thousand meters, they started to find the corpses of Scarlet Poison Spiders. Nearly a thousand meters ahead, the ground was littered with their bodies, roughly amounting to a thousand, the dizzying toxicity mixed with a nauseating blood stench filling the air of the gorge, making it almost unbearable.
"So many dead Poison Spiders... What happened here..."
Zhuge Lian held her breath, trying not to look at the bisected corpses of the Scarlet Poison Spiders, her eyebrows furrowed as she muttered to herself.
"That man, he alone slaughtered so many Scarlet Poison Spiders... Could it be that he concealed his Cultivation Level and isn’t just a Desolate Level Perfection Martial Artist? Or could it be that the Spiritual Artifact in his hand is even more powerful than a mid-grade Spiritual Artifact?"
Han Xingyu envisioned the image of the middle-aged man wielding the blood-colored blade as he pursued the spiders, her expression unable to hide her astonishment as she murmured to herself.
