Chapter 2743: Chapter 2763: Here is the World of Spiders!

"The Starry Sky Magic Crystal is formed by absorbing the intense Demonic Qi from a Starry Sky Demon Beast, undergoing a series of marvelous transformations over a long period..."

Lin Chen’s eyes widened in surprise, "A Starry Sky Demon Beast? With dark qi swirling around this mountain cave, could it be that there is a Starry Sky Demon Beast inside?"

Qi replied, "Perhaps it’s the corpse of a Starry Sky Demon Beast, or a place where one dwelled for a long time."

Lin Chen pondered for a moment then asked with anticipation, "Could it be a living Starry Sky Demon Beast?"

Qi answered with certainty, "Impossible, the Starry Sky Demon Beast is such a formidable being. If there were a living Starry Sky Demon Beast in the cave, that Spider would definitely not appear. To form a Starry Sky Magic Crystal, a large amount of Demonic Qi is required, so it could only mean that a Starry Sky Demon Beast stayed here for a very long time, or its corpse is in the cave."

Lin Chen thought that made sense; how could the living space of such a formidable Starry Sky Demon Beast tolerate the presence of a Spider?

"The Starry Sky Magic Crystal, what is its use?"

Qi laughed, "The Starry Sky Magic Crystal contains intense Demonic Qi and cannot be absorbed by Cultivators. However, it can be absorbed by Demonic Beasts, transforming them into Magical Beasts, significantly enhancing their Strength."

"With so many Starry Sky Magic Crystals in this Underground World, if used for the transformation and enhancement of Demonic Beasts, it would certainly cultivate a number of terrifying Magical Beasts that could rival a Peak Great Luo Celestial Immortal."

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up, "Then if I get my hands on these Starry Sky Magic Crystals, wouldn’t I be able to raise a powerful Magical Beast Team?"

Qi chuckled, "Naturally, that’s possible, but there are two points you must pay attention to. First, contract before cultivating and transforming; otherwise, after the transformation into a Magical Beast and the drastic change in character, without the power of a contract to control them, they will become uncontrollable and may even turn on their master."

"Second, the chosen contract Demonic Beasts must have powerful bloodlines. The more powerful the bloodline, the stronger the Magical Beast will become after transformation. Although transforming into a Magical Beast breaks the bloodline shackles of the Demonic Beast, those with inherently strong bloodlines will improve their Strength faster and more easily reach the peak."

Lin Chen nodded, "Okay, we can ponder this matter later. For now, let’s figure out how to get our hands on these Starry Sky Magic Crystals."

Pausing, Lin Chen’s face revealed a subtle smile, "Now that the Spider has absorbed Demonic Qi and become a Magical Beast, I wonder how it will react to the Star-Space Magic Serpent?"

Previously, Lin Chen had saved the Celestial Demon Chizai, who, to express his gratitude, left Lin Chen with a Star-Space Magic Serpent. It usually wrapped around Lin Chen’s arm like a tattoo.

In the past, Lin Chen hadn’t had much experience with Magical Beasts, so the Star-Space Magic Serpent had not been put to use until now; this seemed like the right time to give it a try.

Lin Chen once again split off several Avatars, sending them into the Black Demon Cave to act as scouts.

Following his Avatars into the cave, Lin Chen then raised his left hand and, applying the method taught by Chizai, infused spiritual power into the Star-Space Magic Serpent on his arm.

In the blink of an eye, the tattoo-like Star-Space Magic Serpent became three-dimensional.

It came to life!

The Star-Space Magic Serpent rose from Lin Chen’s arm, sensing the drifting Demonic Qi, and opened its maw.

Demonic Qi instantly surged from within the Black Demon Cave, pouring into the mouth of the Star-Space Magic Serpent.

While swallowing the Demonic Qi, the Star-Space Magic Serpent moved deeper into the cave.

The Avatars led the way, the Star-Space Magic Serpent devoured Demonic Qi as it traveled, and Lin Chen followed far behind.

As they delved deeper, the Demonic Qi in the cave grew denser, and the eyes of the Star-Space Magic Serpent glowed more brightly. Its aura became increasingly powerful, causing trepidation.

At last, the Avatars reached the Underground World again, the location of the terrifying Spider.

Even though the Avatars were extremely cautious, Silent and Traceless, they still couldn’t evade the Spider’s senses.

The terrifying Spider emerged stealthily from the darkness, its webbing shooting out suddenly.

Lin Chen’s Avatar was instantly enveloped by the web and then swiftly reeled back, falling into the Spider’s mouth, meeting instant death.

The terror Spider killed the scout avatar, and its gigantic body shot upward, instantly rushing into the passage above because it sensed that there were intruders above.

Lin Chen’s avatar turned to flee, but the speed of this evolved Magical Beast Spider was simply too fast; several avatars in front were killed instantly.

Lin Chen drove the Star-Space Magic Serpent forward, the Linglong Tower floated in front of him, ready to escape at any moment.

"Hiss!"

A deep hissing sound rose in the vast Underground World, and a terrifying figure burst from below, charging towards the Star-Space Magic Serpent.

The Star-Space Magic Serpent stopped drawing in Demonic Qi and suddenly raised its head, issuing a deep hiss.

The mountain-like figure of the Magical Beast Spider abruptly halted, its huge eyes looking at the Star-Space Magic Serpent floating in the void ahead, showing a look of fear in its eyes.

This was the first time it had seen the Star-Space Magic Serpent, but the aura emanating from the other party indicated its identity.

As the power of the Magical Beast Spider stemmed from Demonic Qi, it had an instinctual fear of the Star-Space Magic Serpent, regardless of whether it could defeat it or not.

Lin Chen, watching this scene, revealed a look of joy on his face.

There’s a way!

Just moments ago, the Magical Beast Spider had an invincible aura, as if nothing could stop it, but upon seeing the Star-Space Magic Serpent, which was condensed from the origin power of a Starry Sky Demon Beast, it halted.

It was frightened!

The Star-Space Magic Serpent actively swam towards the Magical Beast Spider. Compared to the mountain-like Magical Beast Spider, its body was pitifully small, yet as it drew closer, the spider instinctively took a step back.

The Star-Space Magic Serpent continued to advance while the Magical Beast Spider kept retreating.

After being pushed back for several miles, the Magical Beast Spider finally gave up continuing the standoff, turned around, and leaped back into the world below, quickly disappearing into the darkness.

It worked!

Following behind the Star-Space Magic Serpent, Lin Chen finally reached the Underground World and saw with his own eyes clumps of Starry Sky Magic Crystals.

Lin Chen cast the Illumination Technique, lighting up the entire Underground World.

In the moment of brightness, Lin Chen saw a hair-raising scene.

In the vast Underground World, a dense mass of spiders scurried away in all directions, like the tide receding.

The spiders varied in size; the largest were like mountains, the smallest like sand dunes. It was only because Lin Chen was high in the air that he could witness such a magnificent yet terrifying spectacle.

Lin Chen’s scalp tingled, and a chill ran down his spine.

Previously, through the Image Recording Stone, Lin Chen had seen the Magical Beast Spider that killed the avatar in an instant. Looking at its massive size, Lin Chen had subconsciously assumed there was only one such spider in the cave. However, he now knew just how grossly mistaken he was!

It wasn’t just one; it was a whole nest of spiders!

This was the world of the Magical Beast Spider!

No wonder none of the previous explorers had escaped. Facing such a number of Magical Beast Spiders, who could withstand them?

It’s not just the Middle-Grade Great Luo Celestial Immortals; even a Peak Great Luo Celestial Immortal caught in the lair of so many Magical Beast Spiders would likely be doomed.

If it weren’t for the Star-Space Magic Serpent floating beside him, deterring the many Magical Beast Spiders in this realm, I would have probably been devoured to the bone by now!
