Tang San entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes alone to absorb the soul ring of the Cave Earth Demon Spider.
In the middle of it, although Xiao Wu was assassinated by a Man-Faced Demon Spider, the moment the Man-Faced Demon Spider appeared, it was directly smashed away by two masks, dying on the felled trees with its eyes wide open in disbelief.
Under the awe-struck gazes of everyone, the fox-faced figure spat out black and red light clusters, directly wrapping the deceased Man-Faced Demon Spider into a giant cocoon. As Tang Sui retracted her five fingers, the enormous corpse of the Man-Faced Demon Spider also disappeared, its whereabouts unknown.
"Hiss! Not a trace left!" Ma Hongjun gasped, whispering from behind Dai Mubai.
"This... was the corpse of that Man-Faced Demon Spider corroded?" Zhao Wuji asked, bewildered. Master stared at Tang Sui's calm and exquisite face, shook his head uncertainly, and said in a low voice,
"I've never seen this before either."
"Speaking of which, how long will Sui Sui stay in this form?" Oscar felt a little intimidated by Tang Sui in this state.
Flander shook his head, looked at Liu Erlong, who was full of curiosity, and walked closer to explain to her in a low voice.
Tang Sui, who had not dispelled her attack form, released her demonic energy to begin her absorption after storing the Man-Faced Demon Spider's corpse in the mask's dimensional space.
Of course, from the outside, she merely made the Man-Faced Demon Spider's corpse disappear, with no outward sign of anything unusual.
Brother...
Tang Sui gazed towards the direction of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes, her dark eyes, turned away from everyone, rippling with waves.
Time passed by the second. Tang San, directly immersed in the spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes, encountered the greatest trouble since absorbing a soul ring.
This was different from the inner demons he encountered when absorbing the Man-Faced Demon Spider's soul ring last time. This time, after breaking through the meridian barrier, he felt as if his body was an ever-inflating balloon. Every circulation of soul power intensified his body's swelling and pain, threatening to explode at any moment.
"Drip,"
Crimson blood dripped from the corner of Tang San's mouth, dissolving into the extremely cold and extremely hot spring water.
The black energy accumulated within Tang San's body was continuously absorbed through his meridians. However, the power of the ten-thousand-year-old Cave Earth Demon Spider was still too immense. Every bone and meridian felt as if they were being smashed by a hammer, then reshaped by the medicinal power within his body, the enhanced soul power, and Xuan Tian Gong.
The vast soul power of the Cave Earth Demon Spider expanded his meridians to a terrifying degree. In his chaotic sea of consciousness, the remnant soul of the Cave Earth Demon Spider before its death transformed into a giant spider, blocking Tang San's consciousness. It was covered in dense negative black energy, and it swung its sharp, black spider legs, slashing at Tang San's spiritual sea again and again.
He had to simultaneously guide and absorb the rampant soul power within his body, and also expend mental energy to repair the spiritual sea that was being torn apart. He even had to find a way to control and subdue the rampaging Cave Earth Demon Spider.
Since embarking on the path of cultivation, this was the first time he had faced such a difficult predicament.
"Roar—!"
The Cave Earth Demon Spider, like a conglomerate of negative energy, let out a piercing shriek from its mouth. The blue silver grass vines that sprang from its spiritual sea were shattered by the black power field erupting from its body!
In the real world, Tang San's chest ached, and he couldn't help but cough up a large mouthful of black blood, which dripped into the spring water, colliding with its terrifying medicinal power and giving off an unpleasant gas.
Even the Purple Demon Eye at the Mustard Seed realm couldn't resist it...
Tang San's body convulsed uncontrollably. Small blood vessels within his body burst, and soon, Tang San became a bloody mess.
His clear consciousness, buffeted by the terrifying counterattack of the Cave Earth Demon Spider, became increasingly blurry. Not only could he not spare any effort to defend himself, but he was also struggling to remain conscious...
The vast ten-thousand-year soul power surged and damaged Tang San's various meridians. Unable to withstand this power, Tang San's mind technique circulation was broken, and his heart beat more violently, as if it were a boiling boiler about to explode, causing unbearable discomfort.
Dense black blood choked his throat, and hoarse, broken sounds emerged.
Black soul power, like the tenacious spider silk of the Cave Earth Demon Spider, tightly bound Tang San's soul. Powerful resentment darkened its six shining eyes.
Seeing its killer slowly being wrapped into a giant cocoon by spider silk, the Cave Earth Demon Spider roared and swung its two forelimbs, stepping closer and closer to Tang San, whose consciousness was gradually scattering...
"Hoo—!"
Wisps of fishy smell mixed with the cold wind brushed past Tang Sui's fair cheeks.
Watching as more than three hours had passed, even Master couldn't sit still and paced back and forth. Xiao Wu was so anxious that she had wanted to rush to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes several times to find out what was happening.
"It's getting dark, why has Third Brother been gone for so long without returning? Could something have happened while absorbing the soul ring..." Ning Rongrong anxiously looked in the direction Tang San had left, feeling very uneasy.
Dai Mubai, who had already absorbed his fourth soul ring with Zhu Zhuqing, stood with his arms crossed, his fingers tapping rhythmically on his arm. He was extremely anxious.
"That brat Tang San is making us wait until we're about to die of worry! When we get back to the academy, I'll make him treat us to a good meal!" he declared fiercely. Ma Hongjun nodded vigorously:
"Exactly! He made us all so worried, he definitely owes us a big treat!"
Master paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, sometimes stopping to look in the direction of the valley, and sometimes glancing at Tang Sui, who stood motionlessly like a statue, his brow furrowed.
Little San had been inside for so long and still hadn't come out. He was probably really... No, no, Sui Sui hasn't reacted yet. Yu Xiaogang, you can't lose your composure first!
Master comforted himself inwardly, his attention focused on Tang Sui.
