Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The Spider Monster extended its claws as it pounced toward the retreating Twin-headed Ogre and Ox Chief. All who saw lost their voices in shock. No one, not the Medusa leader or the Fox Elder or the Heavenly Fox Yuna were able to rush to their aid in time.

At the critical moment, Yang Ling, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, teleported into battle once again!

After locking in on the Spider Monster with his mental energy, Yang Ling could sense its every action clearly even though his eyes remained closed. He attacked once again, knowing the dangerous situation the Twin-headed Ogre and Ox Chief were in.

After licking the flesh and blood from its mouth, the Spider Monster let out a cruel laugh. But just as it was prepared to tear the Twin-headed Ogre and Ox Chief to pieces, a ripple suddenly appeared in the air on its left. It instinctively felt an intense sense of danger.

In its unease, the Spider Monster had no choice but to give up on the prey before its eyes. It dodged to the right, narrowly avoiding Yang Ling’s sharp dagger.

Yang Ling retreated, teleporting back to the fog-covered entrance of the hall with blinding speed. It was enough that he saved the Twin-headed Ogre and Ox Chief for now. It was still not the time to go all out against the Spider Monster.

After being forced to retreat by Yang Ling, the Spider Monster cautiously stopped in its tracks. Seeing Yang Ling teleport to the entrance of the hall in the blink of an eye, keenly observing the ripples of Wizard Power in his body, its agitation increased.

“Hehe, five thousand years I’ve waited, until another Ancient Wizard has finally appeared, hehe!” the Spider Monster said, eyeing Yang Ling in excitement. It slowly advanced, one step at a time, its eyes blood red.

It could feel a wave of unique energy ripples within Yang Ling. That obscure, mysterious feeling was similar to the characteristics of the fabled Ancient Wizard. If it gained the secrets of the Ancient Summoner, it might be able to escape from its restraints. It might also free itself from this half-human, half-spider state!

Abbas, five thousand years ago, powerful summoning abilities...

The seemingly casual remark sounded significant to the Fox Elder. Pondering the ferocious Spider Monster, the Fox Elder suddenly recalled an ancient legend.

Five thousand years ago, when the Ancient Summoners had already been gone for more than a thousand years, a powerful Summoner by the name of Abbas had appeared amongst the humans. He could summon vast numbers of Magical Beasts to do battle, and he became a renowned expert under the Church. Even though he was not a Sage-level fighter, his abilities were far superior to a Sword Saint or Holy Magical Tutor in a large scale battle.

That period of time was when the Beastmen were suffering from the heaviest oppression. Many of the Beastmen had been massacred by the Church in the name of cult extermination. Among them, Abbas had the highest number of kills, leading his Magical Beast army and massacring many Beastmen tribes. He was called the Summoner of Beast Blood. Basically, almost all of the Beastmen tribes that luckily survived had his notorious name in their tribal records.

Could this Spider Monster that could speak human words have some connection with the Summoner of Beast Blood from five thousand years ago?

Looking at the ferocious Spider Monster, the Fox Elder became more suspicious of his own thoughts. He muttered, “Could it be that you are the Summoner of Beast Blood Abbas from five thousand years ago?”

Summoner of Beast Blood?

Hearing the Fox Elder say this, the Spider Monster paused, then let out a loud maniacal laugh. “Five thousand years have passed! To think that there is still someone that remembers the name of Abbas, the Summoner of Beast Blood, hehe!”

The Spider Monster laughed harshly, recalling many events of its past.

Back then, he was ordered to lead an army to attack a Beastman tribe. Unexpectedly, he fell for an ambush set up by high level Orc warriors and Orc Soul Priests. He had carelessly allowed the Chuch to use him as bait for the Sage-level Orc King. In his carelessness, he had been sent by the Church to act as bait, attracting to him the sage level Orc King.

After the fierce battle, even though he was lucky enough to escape, he became inflicted with the vicious curse of the Orc Soul Priests and slowly became a half human half spider Spider Monster. When he traveled with difficulty back to the Church, hoping that he would be able to obtain the Pope’s help, he instead invited the so-called purification persecution from the Church.

Having been renounced and under the pursuit of the Church’s experts, he had no choice but to flee.

A few years prior, he had seen a Church historical record. It was said that there were once powerful Ancient Wizards on the Tailun Continent. They split into two factions after the Great Battle of the Gods and Demons, becoming the Ancient Summoners and Tree Shepherds that had appeared for a short span of time.

It was rumored that the Ancient Wizards could communicate with and control the souls of the living things in this world. Other than the Pope, perhaps only they could help him recover his original body. Thus, he looked all over the world for traces of the Ancient Wizards. But not only did he roam for many years looking for one, he eventually became trapped in the hall for thousands of years.

The Spider Monster was momentarily dazed, recalling the events of the past. Yang Ling, who had been secretly observing him, finally found another chance to attack. But this time, the ones who attacked were the Dogmen warriors that had been engaged in preparations for a long time.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Under Yang Ling’s command, the ferocious Dogmen threw the poison-laced harpoons. The harpoons landed like rain on the body of the dazed Spider Monster. The clanging of metal colliding with metal rang out. Even though most of the harpoons were deflected by the tight array of scales on the monster’s body, several of them plunged deep into its soft stomach.

Roar...

Yanking the harpoons from its body, the Spider Monster Abbas was furious. It roared as it advanced without consideration, wanting to swallow Yang Ling whole. As long as it consumed his memories, it might be able to directly obtain the secrets of the Ancient Wizard and escape this imprisonment. It might also be able to change its mutated body.

Fifty steps, forty steps, thirty steps...

The closer to the entrance of the hall, the thicker the white fog, and the more damage it inflicted on the Spider Monster. Soon, under the corrosion of the white fog, its body became covered with thumb-sized pus-filled blisters, rapidly expanding. When the blisters exploded, they released bright red pools of blood. Then another blister would form on the wound, which would explode once again... The cycle repeated over and over again!

Despite suffering heavy injuries, the Spider Monster darted forward in its frenzy, approaching the group!

Seeing the Spider Monster charge forward, bearing with the damage it took from the white fog, Yang Ling sprang into action. He waved his hand and the barbarians, armed with heavy crossbows, immediately stepped forward. In that instant, the heavy crossbows that could pierce even the black armor of the Banto soldiers rained on the Spider Monster’s body. For added effect, each of the arrows was smothered with the fatal snake poison.

Roar...

Even though many of the heavy arrows were deflected by the tightly knit scales, the Spider Monster still got hit from time to time at such a close distance. Slowly, the snake poison accumulated in its body. Its reactions gradually slowed. The white fog’s effects contributed too, slowing the monster increasingly.

“Go, restrain it, don’t let it retreat!” Yang Ling ordered calmly, as he saw the Spider Monster begin to contemplate its escape.

Letting out a savage roar, the Twin-headed Ogre Braska slipped into a Bloodthirsty Frenzy, charging out and attacking the Spider Monster as it tried to retreat. The Medusa leader also did not dare be tardy, flailing her tail and darting toward the monster with four curved blades in hand.

The Ox Chief was feeling better after Goode treated and bandaged his injuries. Seeing the dire situation the Spider Monster was in, he also clenched his teeth and charged forward.

Meanwhile, the Fox Elder led a few of his clansmen and launched a rising wall of fire, completely blocking the Spider Monster’s path of retreat.

Under the effects of the Twin-headed Ogre’s Bloodthirsty Ring of Light, the Ox Chief and Medusa leader also quickly slipped into a frenzy, their speed and power increasing manyfold.

Under the effects of the Ox Chief’s Endurance Ring of Light, a ring of green light appeared not only around the feet of the Twin-headed Ogre and Medusa leader, but also around the Fox Elder, Goode, and the rest. Their Magical Energy pulsed, their stamina rich, as if their entire bodies were filled with energy.

Just like that, the group worked together with one another, their coordination improving as they fought!

When the Spider Monster surged forward, the group retreated quickly, hiding in the foggy entrance of the hall; when the Spider Monster attempted to retreat, Spellcasters like Goode and the Fox Elder launched bolts of rising walls of fire, blocking its retreat completely, while others seized the opportunity to launch a relentless pursuit.

The Twin-headed Ogre’s heavy attacks, the impact wave and War Trample of the Ox Chief, the Medusa leader’s successive attacks, and the wall of fire and icicles conjured by the Fox Elder and Goode...

The Spider Monster, whose abilities were decreased by the corrosive white fog, could not withstand the attacks. Even though its scales were hard and sturdy, it was unable to deflect the heavy crossbows and sharp harpoons at such a close distance. The Spider Monster had to be extremely cautious of the Heavenly Fox’s Petrifying Spell and Yang Ling’s sneaky surprise attacks, and it was unable to charge out of the embattlement no matter how strong its defense was. It was trapped in the small area where the white fog billowed.

Under the combined attacks of the group and the corrosion of the white fog, the Spider Monster soon became bloodied and covered in wounds. With the accumulation of the snake poison in its body, its reactions became increasingly slower, giving the Twin-headed Ogre and Medusas more chances to land their attacks.

The Heavenly Fox Yuna suppressed her urge to take action immediately, searching calculatedly for an opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the Spider Monster at the critical moment. To an ordinary person, her Magical Illusory Spell Formation was mysterious and powerful, but against the Spider Monster, who had immense mental energy, she might not be strong enough. Thus, she had to be patient and search for a suitable opportunity.

The Heavenly Fox Yuna waited for an opportunity, and so did Yang Ling!

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he had his mental energy locked onto the surrounded Spider Monster, and he was searching for its weakness carefully. A warrior or Magical Beast would have a weakness no matter how powerful they were. He believed that the Spider Monster would not be able to escape his fatal blow when its stamina, Magical Energy, and mental energy had decreased to a certain degree. Then, its defense would be open, and its reactions would be dull.

Roar...

Having been cut successively by the Medusa leader, almost slicing open its heel, the Spider Monster became furious, slipping into complete hysteria. It spat out an obscure incantation, summoning a horde of ferocious Giant Crab Spiders and Twin-headed Horse Spiders.

“Haha, die, die all of you!”

In its fury, the Spider Monster paid no regard to the attacks behind it and roared as it sprang forward, grabbing the Medusa leader who had been unable to retreat in time. It inflicted a few deep and long wounds on her body, then opened its mouth, ready to release a scorching hot Heavenly Purple Fire!
