The Iron Thorn Demon Spider, the overlord of the Demon Forest, the king group, all adult demon spiders are kings, and above them is the Great Demon King level demon spider. Although the strongest is only the peak Demon King, it is comparable to the Demon Emperor!
In addition, there are a large number of ethnic groups, and even the real emperor demons are not willing to provoke them easily. According to the intelligence records in the Qianlong Order, there were once three grand master-level human race geniuses who joined forces to encircle and suppress the Iron Thorn Demon Spider, but they were deeply involved. Two died and one was injured.
Even those who survived were seriously injured, corroded by its demonic stings and poisons, and their spirits collapsed. Not only was it difficult for their bodies to recover, but they were also unable to make further progress throughout their lives!
Wu Ming carefully hid among the thick branches of the ancient tree, his aura restrained to the extreme. He was no longer as casual as before, because once he touched the spider silk, even the most inconspicuous one, it would alarm the demon spider.
The reason why the three great masters and geniuses suffered heavy losses at the beginning was precisely because they were discovered by the Spider Emperor in advance without checking, and fell into a terrifying trap.
This is a demon. It does not possess the intelligence of a wise race, but it has extraordinary hunting instincts. In other words, it is an instinct that has evolved over countless years of evolution!
The Ten Thousand Realms Spirit Race, taking the human race as an example, is the best among the intelligent races. They are born with extremely strong learning ability, but no matter how hard they study, it is difficult to achieve this kind of instinct that is integrated into their bones.
Just like muscle memory, it is also an instinct, but it is only part of the exercise. But every part of the demon's body, even flesh and blood, is in perfect harmony with this instinct, making it a perfect killing machine!
Of course, perfection does not mean that there are no flaws. It is precisely because it is too perfect that it conforms to the natural law that things must be reversed when they go to extremes.
Although the human race is not the strongest among the Ten Thousand Realms Spirit Race, its super learning ability gives the human race the ability to draw inferences from one instance to other cases. When the behavioral rules of the prey are determined, they can use their ability to draw inferences to reversibly derive a method of restraint.
The information in the Hidden Dragon Order also records the method of restraining the demon spider. However, the cost is extremely high and few people can complete it. This is why this group of people is free to this day.
Of course, there is another reason. The spider silk produced by the Iron Thorn Demon Spider is one of the best materials for constructing the meridians of treasure armor and spiritual clothing formations. Even the spider silk produced by the Spider Emperor has undergone certain changes.
, has the magical effect of strengthening meridians.
Therefore, the geniuses who have the ability to penetrate deep into the Demonic Forest in the past generations will not cause devastating blows to the demonic spiders, and then leave after forcibly grabbing some of the best spider silk.
This is a deformed coexistence of interests. The iron-thorned demon spider swarm is extremely harmful, but it also produces materials that are extremely important to the human race. Every time it is opened, it will cause huge losses and pay a high price. The cycle repeats.
.
The dangers of this place are such that for innate warriors, it is a point of no return, even for the talented ones!
But Wu Ming hesitated...
"Ming Wang Fudo" has been repaired to the fourth level of perfection. Now it has reached its peak, and the rudiment of the Dharma has been formed. While cultivating both internal and external, the realm has been leveled.
Although the reason for deliberately suppressing the progress of body refining is because there is no suitable treasure that can establish the foundation of the Hundred Veins and break through to the fifth level.
Buddhism has always been gentle and focused on neutrality and peace, but Tantric Buddhism is quite radical and has always been intolerable to Buddhism in the Central Plains. It is impossible for Wu Ming to endure such severe pain and wait for it to happen as the great monk relied on self-hypnosis.
With the help of special treasures.
The same is true for the fifth level, which is called the Hundred Veins of Gold and Iron. It is a step to strengthen the meridians. Just like the second level of bone internalization, it requires shattering the bones of the whole body to re-aggregate, and it also needs to severely damage the meridians and reorganize them to achieve the goal.
Strengthen the effect.
The process is dangerous. If you are not careful, your muscles and veins may be extinguished and your cultivation may be destroyed. In worst cases, you may become obsessed with evil spirits and your spirit may disappear!
"Is it a coincidence, or..."
Wu Ming kept recalling the various magical effects of the Demon Spider Emperor's silk in the Hidden Dragon Order in his mind. He stared deeply at the Demon Spider that had already packed up and dragged a ball of spider silk into the depths of the forest.
It has to be said that for him, the Spider Emperor's Silk is indeed the best auxiliary treasure to break through the fifth level. It is even more effective than the various treasures he had expected in the past.
If he hadn't been running around here and there and lost contact with Jia Zhengjing, he would have even been interested in a few other treasures.
It's just that this place is too dangerous. Even the great master-level geniuses have records of their demise. Even though they may be underestimating the enemy, in terms of strength alone, they are more than ten times stronger than Wu Ming.
Even if there are many life-saving things, breaking into such a desperate situation is still a narrow escape!
But if you really want to give up, you won’t be willing to do so. After all, the treasure from that time is really hard to find!
"withdraw!"
After thinking for a long time, Wu Ming flashed and quietly retreated to the outside.
The huge disparity in strength is no longer a matter of seeking wealth and wealth at risk, but a matter of seeking death!
Squeak!
Unexpectedly, as soon as he moved, a small, scalp-numbing scream sounded from behind and even around him, and countless faintly jumped between the dim tree trunks.
"Too careless!"
Wu Ming's consciousness swept away, his face suddenly turned ugly, and he glanced at the transparent thread on his shoulder.
If it hadn't been broken, it wouldn't have been discovered at all!
There is no record in the Qianlong Order information, and it has not been touched before. Obviously, there are not many such transparent warning threads, otherwise it would not be easy to get here.
Thinking about it now, with the powerful spiritual consciousness of the Grand Master, I am afraid that he was tricked and ended up in such a miserable end. It was just that the living people fled in panic and had no time to take a closer look.
As for the latecomers, it is very likely that they deliberately concealed it. After all, the specialties here are still extremely precious!
Squeak!
Now was obviously not the time to think wildly. In the blink of an eye, countless dark brown spiders the size of millstones, their compound eyes lighting up like red lanterns, screamed and swooped towards Wu Ming.
“I can’t control that much anymore!”
Wu Ming gritted his teeth, stretched out his body, and flew at full speed.
It's just that the spiritual energy in Qianlong Abyss is different from the outside world. It is an extremely chaotic special power. The human race cannot refine it at all, and can only replenish and consume it with the help of self-prepared elixirs.
Fortunately, I had enough spiritual stones before, and I replenished some of the True Essence Pills, as well as a batch of special spiritual pills refined by Li Donghu, which were enough to deal with special situations.
But facing the attack of the demon spider swarm, this is not the case!
call out!
A strand of silver-white spider silk, like a sharp arrow, shot towards Wu Ming's ankle silently, without even causing any ripples, only a vague buzzing sound.
"snort!"
Wu Ming glared coldly, twisted his waist without thinking, and dodged it as fast as lightning.
It's just that there are more and more demon spiders approaching around. Some demon spiders are attacking from a hundred feet away, and without exception they use spider silk to entangle them. One or two are not afraid, but more than one is really hard to guard against.
"Open it for me!"
As a last resort, Wu Ming pulled out the broken gold knife and chopped it away, but his expression changed drastically immediately.
The sharp edge that is enough to cut through treasures of the same level can cut off the spider silk, but its toughness is far beyond imagination. Every time it is struck, its figure will be slightly delayed.
In just half a tea hour, there were dozens of demon spiders surrounding them, flashing with strange eyes like red lanterns, and they densely surrounded an area of 1,000 feet.
With no way to go from front to back, left or right, Wu Ming stretched out his arms, and the phoenix spread its wings and flew into the air, suddenly smashing into the huge tree crown and flying straight into the air.
Phew!
But what made his expression even more ugly was that the demon spiders seemed to have been prepared for it. In other words, they had an instinctive way to deal with this situation, and they were spitting out spider silk uniformly.
Buzz!
Hundreds of spider silks gathered from farther away and turned into a thousand-foot-long net that fell in the air.
"Open it for me!"
Wu Ming had already reached the point where he could do whatever he wanted. His moves changed instantly. With the broken gold knife in his hand, the light of the sword was like a waterfall hanging upside down and sweeping out.
Tsk!
In the tooth-grinding sound of friction, there were no sparks flying, no shattering snaps, the blade's light was just a big swell of cobwebs from the impact, and then dissipated with a burst of horrifying blood-silver light and shadow.
.
"Hiss, bloodline magical power!"
Wu Ming took a breath.
I never expected that before I got deep into the Demon Forest, I would encounter the elite troops of the Iron Thorn Demon Spider. My spiritual consciousness swept out and I was shocked to find that dozens of large demon king-level demon spiders and countless demon spiders had gathered within a thousand feet.
Hundreds of demon king-level spiders.
Different from ordinary monsters with extraordinary bloodlines, this is the bloodline magical power of the demon spider group. The strong ones among them can connect with the tribe through the bloodline of the same clan and display the same talent, thereby forming bloodline magical powers and doubling their power!
It is precisely because of this that the three great masters and geniuses suffered heavy casualties back then!
Under the coverage of this kind of bloodline talent and magical power, even the talisman used to escape will be banned!
"kill!"
As soon as he felt regret for not using the talisman to escape immediately, he was killed by Wu Ming. Holding a broken gold knife, he used the Wandering Dragon Step to the extreme and charged into the group of demon spiders.
With his current strength, ordinary demon spiders are no match for him. Even the Great Demon King level demon spider can only make up for it with a sword or a palm.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of demon spiders were either cut in half or smashed into a pulp, with their fishy juices splashing everywhere.
Squeak!
The demon spiders screamed angrily. Their killing instinct made them fearless of death. They did not know what fear was. They swarmed forward. The big demon king-level demon spiders resisted Wu Ming. There were hundreds of demon king-level demon spiders behind them, spewing spider silk.
There is no ordinary group's combat method of sending out cannon fodder to consume the vitality of the prey. Instead, the priority is to reduce a few casualties. This clearly shows that this group puts the protection of the group in an important position during its evolution.
At first, with the sharpness of the blade, he cut off countless spider silks, but as more and more demon spiders joined the battle, Wu Ming's limbs were repeatedly entangled in spider silks. Even if he broke free with great force, he would be able to escape in the blink of an eye.
Got entangled again in several ways.
The long-range attacks of the demon spider swarm and the effective way of commanding the battle made him completely passive. He could not use his ability to defeat the strong with the weak countless times in the past.
Even when faced with the siege by the 50-man Beiwei Army, it was not so difficult...
Finally, Wu Ming felt exhausted, not only from consumption, but also from the paralyzing toxins contained in the spider silk, which were everywhere, and the spider spines like cow hair were about to break through Gangyi's defense!
This substance is extremely vicious. Not only is it countless times thinner than cow hair, it also has barbs and toxins that are difficult to remove after entering the body! (To be continued)
