Chapter 975 The Second Level
She swung the dagger backhanded to cut the spider silk, but saw more blood spiders emerging from the ground, and their panicked figures were reflected in the compound eyes of each one.
"It's too late..." Cracks appeared in Mu Wuzhi's vine barrier, "There's no way we can kill all these ghosts!"
Luo Li narrowed her eyes, "We must force the Spider King out and kill him, otherwise these things will only be endless!"
Not far away, Yin Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Our strength has been suppressed! We can't handle these emperor-level monsters!"
"That's better than being exhausted to death!"
Luo Li put away Xuan Yue, clasped her hands together, formed a complicated seal, and suddenly a dazzling golden light burst out from her body.
"Light Field—Open!"
With her clear shout, the space within a radius of ten feet with her as the center suddenly distorted, and the Blood Demon Spider's movements instantly slowed down, as if it was stuck in a quagmire.
Yin Feng's pupils shrank, "Is this... the light of dawn?!"
Beads of sweat oozed from Luo Li's forehead. "Quick! Find the Spider King now!"
No one dared to delay and immediately searched among the spiders.
Suddenly, Xie Shiyuan pointed to a raised hill in the distance, "Over there! The one with golden patterns on its belly!"
Fu Yu's eyes on the side became fierce, and a golden blade of light condensed in his palm, which he threw at the Spider King without hesitation.
“Puff—”
The light blade accurately pierced the Spider King's abdomen. It let out a sharp hiss, its huge body twisting wildly, and the surrounding spiders also became restless.
"He's trying to escape!" Mu Wuzhi exclaimed.
Luo Li said sternly, "Don't wait for him to escape, attack him together!"
At this moment, everyone no longer cared about the previous barriers and joined forces to attack the Blood Demon Spider King who was trying to escape.
Under the joint siege of everyone, the Blood Demon Spider King finally let out a shrill roar, and his huge body fell to the ground with a bang, turning into a ball of black mist and dissipating.
With the death of the Spider King, the densely packed blood spiders around him seemed to have lost their wisdom and could only spin in place.
"Huh...it's finally solved." Mu Wuzhi breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
Luo Li retracted the realm of light and her face turned slightly pale.
The energy consumption just now was quite high, but now is not the time to rest.
She looked up into the distance and said in a deep voice, "After the Spider Emperor dies, he should drop a clearance token. We must find it as soon as possible."
Wen Xingyan nodded and took the lead to walk towards the place where the Spider Emperor disappeared. Sure enough, he found a dark red token on the charred land. It was engraved with ancient runes and faintly exuded the power of the underworld.
"Got it." He picked up the token and handed it to Luo Li.
"Wait a minute!" Long Qianjue frowned, "Why should I give you this token?"
Xuan Mu crossed his arms and said coldly, "If it weren't for the light of dawn released by Luo Li just now, would you still have the nerve to speak with such a dirty mouth?"
"You!" Long Qianjue said angrily, "Anyway, we killed the Spider Emperor together. This clearance token cannot be given to just one person!"
Luo Li scoffed, "One clearance token can only help one person clear the level. Do you want me to break it into dozens of pieces and give them to you? Are you dreaming?"
Long Qianjue's face turned ashen, and the spiritual energy around him was faintly turbulent. "Then it depends on your ability!"
Before he finished speaking, a golden light suddenly shot out from his hand and went straight for the token.
Wen Xingyan turned the sword, and the sound of metal hitting stone rang out. The golden light turned out to be a dragon scale hidden weapon.
"Looking for death." A cold light flashed in Xuan Mu's eyes, and the cold pressure caused frost to condense on the ground.
Luo Li suddenly raised her hand and said calmly, "As you can see, there are at least eight hundred blood demon spiders on the ground. Instead of wasting energy here, why not go and see if there are any clearance tokens dropped from these blood demon spiders?"
Hearing this, Fu Yu's eyes lit up, "You're right!"
She immediately waved her hand and said to the disciples behind her, "Go look for him!"
"Yes, Saint!"
A moment later, a disciple from Yaochi Holy Land exclaimed in surprise, "Found it!"
"What?!"
Long Qianjue was shocked, "It actually exists?!"
People from other forces also reacted and followed suit.
Luo Li curled the corners of her lips slightly, put the token in her hand into her arms, and found enough pass tokens in the bodies of the surrounding blood demon spiders to distribute to Wen Xingyan and the others.
Then he whispered, "Let's go."
Wen Xingyan and the others understood, and while everyone's attention was diverted, they quietly retreated towards the altar.
"You knew it a long time ago?" Mu Wuzhi asked in a voice transmission.
Luo Li nodded slightly. "After the Blood Demon Spider King dies, the entire spider colony will fall into a weakened state, but there is still a possibility that a clearance token will be born in their bodies. However... the real entrance to the next level is actually over there at the altar."
Feng Wuhen raised his eyebrows, "How did you tell that?"
Luo Li pointed to her eyes. "When the realm of light unfolded just now, I noticed that the runes on the altar were absorbing the power of darkness. I think that's the key to the second level. Anyway, let's go over and take a look."
Shen Fuzhou looked admiring, “As expected of Luo Li!”
The few of them quickened their pace and soon arrived at the ancient altar.
The altar was circular, with a complex formation carved in the center. Twelve stone pillars stood around it, and the top of each stone pillar was inlaid with a dark green inner core of a great lord-level monster.
"This formation..." Wen Xingyan squatted down and lightly touched the patterns on the ground with his fingers. "It seems to be a teleportation formation, but it requires a specific energy to activate."
Luo Li took out the dark red token from her bosom and said thoughtfully, "Perhaps this is the key."
She placed the token into the groove in the center of the formation. In an instant, the entire altar was lit up with a dazzling blood-red light. The gems on the twelve stone pillars simultaneously burst into dazzling light. A beam of light shot up into the sky, tearing open the first layer of the gloomy sky of the Netherworld.
"Let's go!" Luo Li shouted softly and stepped into the light column first.
The others followed closely behind, and after placing the token in the center, their figures were instantly engulfed by the light.
The moment they disappeared, Long Qianjue in the distance suddenly looked up, his face changing drastically: "Not good! They activated the teleportation array!"
Fu Yu also noticed something was wrong and gritted his teeth, "Chase him!"
The other side.
Luo Li only felt a flash before her eyes, and the surrounding scene had changed drastically.
She stood at the edge of a pitch-black forest. The branches of the towering ancient trees were twisted like ghost claws, dark red liquid oozed from the bark, and the air was filled with the smell of decay.
Luo Li turned her head subconsciously, but found that she was the only one around.
broken.
Luo Li gritted her teeth secretly, as they were forcibly separated at the second level.
She looked around. The dark forest was filled with thick fog. Even her spiritual sense was suppressed to the limit. She could only sense the movements within three feet around her.
She gripped the Xuan Yue Sword tightly, and a ray of dawn light condensed from her fingertips, illuminating the way ahead.
"The content of the second level trial is still unclear," Luo Li muttered to herself, "We need to find the others as soon as possible."
