How could Sheng Ning, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, possibly defeat a Nascent Soul stage demon beast?
The Golden Core cultivators below were already exhausted. Seeing the Seven Star Spider attracted by Sheng Ning, they were worried but mostly relieved.
With the Seven Star Spiders' attention drawn, they were able to catch their breath a little. Although Sheng Ning was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, he should be able to hold out for about half a quarter of an hour.
He hurriedly took out the pills he had prepared from his mustard seed bag and swallowed them. Just as everyone was swallowing the pills, the towering tree where Sheng Ning was standing was instantly knocked down by the Seven Star Spider's legs.
Fortunately, Sheng Ning was fast enough.
She quickly jumped to another tree, and seeing the Seven-Star Spider following her, she leaped again.
After knocking down more than ten trees in succession, the Seven Star Spider, still unable to catch Sheng Ning, became enraged.
A roar of a demonic beast echoed through the forest. Caught off guard, Sheng Ning was blown to the ground by the roar, which was imbued with spiritual power.
The cultivators were surprised that Sheng Ning, a mere Foundation Establishment Level 3 cultivator, could actually buy them a quarter of an hour.
Even her movements were so slippery, like a mudfish in a river, that she forced the Seven Star Spider to use its spiritual power.
However, she has now thoroughly angered the Seven Star Spider, and her days are numbered.
The cultivators couldn't help but turn their heads away, unable to bear the sight of Sheng Ning being smashed into a pulp.
"Chirp chirp!"
Sheng Ning, who was dizzy from the fall and whose head was throbbing from the roar of spiritual energy, only heard a chirping sound in her ear.
She barely opened her eyes and saw the Seven-Star Spider, angered by her, rushing towards her.
Her throat tightened, and she quickly took out a small landmine from her consciousness space and threw it over.
The Seven Star Spider disdained this small, round thing that had no spiritual energy fluctuations.
It glanced at the little landmine, then looked up at Sheng Ning, its compound eyes seemingly filled with disdain.
Disdainful of Sheng Ning, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, yet daring to contend with it.
"You can look down on me, but you can't look down on my weapons."
"So what if you're in the fusion stage? You'll still be blown to pieces by my little landmine, just like your partner."
Although the Seven-Star Spider cannot speak, it easily understood what Sheng Ning said.
Her words instantly reminded it of the scene not long ago when those Golden Core stage demon beasts died mysteriously.
It turns out that it was this human cultivator who was behind it all; she used this little sphere to blow up those Golden Core stage demon beasts.
The Seven-Star Spider naturally wouldn't believe it.
It knew that among the human cultivators were talisman cultivators, who could draw explosive talismans.
It seems that those Golden Core stage demonic beasts all died because of the explosive talismans.
And how is the small round ball at its feet any different from the toys of human children?
The disdain in his compound eyes grew even stronger.
The Seven-Star Spider grabbed the small landmine and tossed it up and down, as if to mock Sheng Ning for bragging without thinking.
Sheng Ning did this precisely to provoke it.
Seeing it pick up the small landmine, she smirked and continued, "Oh dear, I'm so clumsy, I completely forgot to unplug it!"
"You absolutely mustn't unplug the cable, or you'll die too."
The Seven-Star Spider glanced at the small landmine and, sure enough, saw a white line.
The line is very long, as if it were made specifically for people to swing around and play with.
Upon hearing Sheng Ning's words, the Seven Star Spider roared and immediately pulled the wire from the small landmine.
This scene, witnessed by other cultivators, was seen as Sheng Ning's last act of defiance before her death.
To their utter surprise, just two breaths after the Seven Star Spider pulled the thread off the small ball, a deafening explosion instantly assaulted their eardrums.
"roar--"
Fortunately, Sheng Ning covered her ears in advance and was not affected by the Seven Star Spider's spiritual energy again.
As the smoke and dust cleared, not only Sheng Ning, but also the other cultivators stared wide-eyed at the scene before them.
However, Sheng Ning was surprised by the Seven Star Spider's tough body, which even a small landmine couldn't break through.
The other cultivators stared in shock as they saw the Seven Star Spider's body blown over.
How did she do that?
Despite having so many Golden Core cultivators fighting against it, they couldn't even shave off a single hair on the Seven Star Spider's leg.
That little sphere just now actually stunned the Seven Star Spider?
The Seven-Star Spider is incredibly powerful; it only fainted for a moment before regaining its senses.
Realizing that he had been stunned by a small sphere with no spiritual energy fluctuations, the Seven-Star Spider was instantly enraged.
As it rose on its eight legs, the Seven Star Spider charged toward Sheng Ning once more.
"Don't rush, look what this is?"
Seeing the Seven Star Spider awaken and its spiritual power surge, the cultivators who had intended to take the opportunity to hunt it down immediately stopped in their tracks.
They were the pride of their sects; it was not worth it for them to die for a demon beast.
Moreover, Sheng Ning has such a powerful secret weapon. All they need to do is rush up and split open its softest part, its abdomen, when the Seven Star Spider is stunned again, and then take out its inner core.
With everyone holding this thought, when they looked up at Sheng Ning again, they saw that she was holding two small landmines in her hand.
Several small landmines were also tied to the vines of a withered branch tied around her neck.
Is she... going to perish together with the Seven Star Spider?
I wonder which minor sect she belongs to. She is so young, yet she has such a strong sense of righteousness.
Sheng Ning would never die with a spider.
Taking advantage of the Seven-Star Spider's momentary daze, she immediately threw out the landmine with the wire pulled, "Chirp chirp!"
"Chirp chirp chirp!" Chirp chirp followed behind, and the landmines tied to the vines instantly fell on the back of the Seven Star Spider.
Having already experienced the power of the small landmines, the Seven-Star Spider was furious that humans had developed such a powerful weapon, and retreated step by step.
But no matter how fast it moves, it can't outrun the speed of a landmine exploding.
Just then, a deafening explosion rang out, and amidst the smoke and dust, the Seven Star Spider roared in anger, completely stunned.
Upon seeing this, the cultivator who had been hiding to the side and covered his ears immediately drew his sword and prepared to step forward.
"Quick! While it's stunned by the explosion, quickly extract its inner core!"
"Haha! I never thought that I, a mere Golden Core cultivator, would actually kill a Nascent Soul stage demon beast. I can brag about this for a hundred years!"
"Let me do it. I have a top-grade spirit sword that can easily slice open the Seven Star Spider's abdomen!"
Everyone rushed forward, afraid that if they were a step too slow, someone else would snatch the opportunity first.
This is the inner core of a Nascent Soul stage demon beast. According to the rules of the demon beast frenzy, whoever takes the demon beast's core gets to keep it.
They were all disciples of small sects, or independent cultivators.
Normally, they simply cannot access the good resources found in major sects like the Taixu Sect.
The monster frenzy is one of the few opportunities they have to seize good items.
Therefore, even if it means fighting tooth and nail, they must get their hands on this inner core!
Just as a group of cultivators rushed forward, ready to be the first to cut open the Seven-Star Spider's abdomen, someone with sharp eyes noticed that a person was already standing next to the Seven-Star Spider.
As they approached, they discovered that the Seven-Star Spider's inner core had been removed, and the other party was none other than the little girl who had stunned the Seven-Star Spider with the sphere.
They saw that Sheng Ning was only a Foundation Establishment Level 3 cultivator.
Someone immediately harbored malicious intentions.
