Chapter 8 (1/2)

Ordinary spiders had the custom of preserving the activity of their prey and leaving it for the breeding of their offspring.

For the human-faced ghost spider, which was already at the initial stage of intelligence, this habit was carried to the extreme.

Some people even discovered that someone had been eaten by the small spider until only his head and limbs were left behind. His entire person had almost turned into a skeleton, but surprisingly, he did not die.

The little spider would use the cries of its prey to set up a trap, luring the next prey into the trap.

In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the human-faced ghost spider might not be the most dangerous demon beast.

However, it was definitely the demon beast that people were most unwilling to encounter.

This was especially so when this demon beast had almost broken through to the seventh realm.

When a human cultivator reached the seventh realm, Tribulation, they would at least have the position of an elder in the sect.

The saintess candidate of the Jade Fairy Mountain only had the strength of an average third rank, which was nothing in front of the human-faced ghost spider.

“We must not fall into the hands of the human-faced ghost spider.”

“Sisters, before we came here, we had already prepared for the worst. We just didn’t expect that we would suffer such a loss before we even entered the Heavenly Demon Sect.”

“I’m sure everyone knows what will happen if we fall into the hands of the human-faced ghost spider.”

“Don’t drag senior sister Bai Ling down. If we continue to hesitate, none of us will be able to escape.”

A slightly stronger girl of the fourth rank in the crowd took out a dagger from her bosom and placed it across her neck as she spoke loudly.

Although she spoke righteously, Alan could still hear a trace of fear in her voice.

After all, she was still a child.

According to the lifespan of a monk, they were indeed much longer than ordinary people.

However, just like how Alan went into seclusion for a thousand years, these girls spent most of their time in cultivation.

If one used pure mental calculation, their age was equivalent to their appearance.

“No!

“I can do it. As long as I use the forbidden technique one more time, I will definitely find his weakness and kill him.”

Bai Ling hurriedly came out to stop her. Her pupils were suffused with a golden luster, as if a whirlpool had formed.

“Senior sister, if you use any more forbidden techniques, you’ll go blind.”

The girl felt the change in Bai Ling’s aura. She tightened the dagger in her hand, and a bright red color instantly flowed out of her snow-white neck.

The Jade Fairy Mountain specialized in eye techniques and illusions, and both required the cooperation of the eyes.

If one’s cultivation was insufficient, forcefully using a technique that was beyond one’s level and not mastered would cause a great burden on the eyes.

Once one’s eyes were injured, one’s cultivation level would be reduced by at least half.

These girls were all orphans adopted by Water Moon Fairy when she was traveling.

Bai Ling was the oldest and the most talented.

She had always treated them as her own younger sisters.

Although there was a tradition of fighting for saintesses on the Jade Fairy Mountain, it seemed like everyone was competing.

However, these girls were not old enough to be scheming against each other.

Everyone treated each other as family.

In order to protect her sisters behind her, Bai Ling was even prepared to die with her eyes bulging.

“Senior sister, don’t.”

“Senior sister, hurry up and leave. Don’t bother about us anymore.”

“Senior sister, if you don’t leave now, I’m going to cut myself. You know that I’m most afraid of pain.”

The girls behind her also began to persuade Bai Ling to leave.

They were only at the third level of cultivation. It was basically impossible for them to survive alone in this dangerous Hundred Thousand Mountains.

Their only chance was to be discovered by the Heavenly Demon Sect and brought into the sect as disciples.

Water Moon Fairy’s original plan was to separate everyone and pretend to be the young ladies of the family who went out to train, but was abducted by the Heavenly Demon Sect.

After all, most of the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect came from this way.

Who knew that they would encounter a peak level six great demon beast just outside?

The disciples who had been secretly protecting them had already died in battle.

The girls were running as they walked. It was not easy for them to get here.
