There was a dead silence in the Ten Thousand Spider Valley.
Mo Xuan stepped over the corpses on the ground, and every step felt like walking on the edge of a knife.
Those once familiar faces of the tribesmen are now nothing but shriveled corpses.
Her fingertips dug deep into her palms, blood dripping through her fingers, but she felt no pain at all.
"Why, are you feeling sad?"
Behind him, Li Lingge's voice sounded lazily.
Mo Xuan turned around suddenly, the murderous intent in her eyes almost solidified, but in the end, she just gritted her teeth and swallowed the hatred back.
She couldn't kill him, at least not now.
Once he dies, the imperial court and the major immortal sects will completely lose control of their suppression of the Black-bellied Silk Spider, and the remaining members of the tribe will have no way to survive.
She took a deep breath, forced herself to look away, and continued walking forward.
Li Lingge chuckled and followed her slowly, as if he didn't see the corpses on the ground.
Soon, the two came to the end of the valley.
An ancient stone statue stands here, shaped like a giant black-bellied spider with eight legs deeply inserted into the ground. The surface of the statue is covered with cracks eroded by time, but its former majesty can still be seen.
Mo Xuan stood in front of the stone statue, his fingertips trembling slightly.
This is the entrance to the ancestral land of the Black-bellied Spider clan, and now she has come here with her enemies.
To open the ancestral land, one needs the blood essence of the direct bloodline, and she happens to be the last descendant of the clan leader's lineage.
"Let's get started."
Li Lingge stood behind her, his tone light but unyielding.
Mo Xuan closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was only determination in his eyes.
She slowly raised her hand and placed her palm on the cold surface of the stone statue.
"With my blood, I will call back the spirits of my ancestors."
As she finished speaking, a blood-red spider pattern suddenly appeared between her eyebrows, and a drop of crystal blood seeped out from it, suspended in the air, and then slowly fell into the stone statue.
Buzz——
In an instant, the entire valley shook!
The cracks on the surface of the stone statue began to emit dazzling blood light, the runes on the spider legs lit up one by one, the ground cracked, and countless spider-like golden lines spread out from under the feet of the stone statue, crawling all over the valley like a living thing!
Li Lingge's eyes narrowed and he subconsciously took a half step back.
But Mo Xuan stood there, her long hair moving in the wind, her robes rustling, and she seemed to have some kind of resonance with the stone statue.
boom--
A deep crack suddenly appeared in the belly of the stone statue, and an ancient and majestic aura gushed out, instantly sweeping across the entire Ten Thousand Spider Valley.
Then, the ground began to collapse!
Countless pieces of rubble rolled and fell into the abyss, but where Mo Xuan and Li Lingge were standing, a huge altar slowly rose up. In the center of the altar was a huge bronze door engraved with spider-shaped runes!
The gate to the ancestral land!
Mo Xuan's pupils shrank slightly. She had heard her mother say that the ancestral land contained the most ancient secrets of the Black-bellied Silk Spider clan, and even the power to reverse the fate of extinction.
At this moment, she couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope in her heart. If she could obtain that power, she might be able to gain the dominant position.
Kill the third prince and save the clan, she wants it all!
"Open the door."
Li Lingge's voice sounded behind him, carrying an irresistible command.
Mo Xuan didn't look back, but slowly raised his hand and pressed it on the huge bronze door.
Click—click—click!
The heavy bronze door slowly opened, and a smell of decay that had been sealed for thousands of years blew in their faces. However, the scene behind the door made both of them stunned.
It was a vast starry sky!
Only if you look closely will you discover that the starry sky is actually a canopy woven from countless spider silk threads.
Each spider silk is crystal clear, emitting a faint silver light, crisscrossing to form a giant web covering the entire space.
In the center of the net, a pitch-black cocoon was suspended, with blood-colored lines wrapped around its body, and it was slightly undulating as if it had life.
"What's this?"
Li Lingge narrowed his eyes, revealing a rare trace of solemnity.
Mo Xuan did not answer. Her eyes were fixed on the black cocoon, and her heart was beating wildly.
She could feel that something in the cocoon was calling her!
Suddenly, the entire spiderweb sky began to tremble!
Swish——
Countless spider silks suddenly contracted, the blood-red lines on the surface of the black cocoon suddenly lit up, and a terrifying pressure descended in an instant!
Li Lingge's face suddenly changed, he grabbed Mo Xuan's shoulders and shouted.
"retreat!"
However, it was too late!
boom--
The black cocoon exploded, and a figure slowly emerged.
It was a woman, floating in the air, with long hair like ink, skin as pale as snow, and a blood-red spider pattern on her forehead, which was extremely weird. The most shocking thing was that her lower body was a pitch-black spider body!
The eight sharp spider legs swung gently, and she slowly opened her eyes, revealing a pair of scarlet compound eyes.
"Thousands of years..."
Her voice was hoarse and ancient, as if it came from the depths of hell.
"Why did you call me?"
Her gaze fell directly on Mo Xuan.
Li Lingge's fingertips were already clasped on the hilt of the sword at his waist. He was afraid that it would not be so easy to obtain the Chaos Green Lotus this time.
Mo Xuan stared at the figure in a daze, her lips trembling.
"Lord Ancestor, Ancestor Spider?!"
The woman lifted her spider legs slightly, and a crystal spider silk instantly wrapped around Mo Xuan's wrist.
"Why are you alone?"
In an instant, all the memories in Mo Xuan's mind were detected by the spider silk.
Immediately afterwards, Lord Zuzhu's gaze fell on Li Lingge.
"Now it's time for those who killed my people to pay the price."
