The moment the spider appeared, its four gleaming legs, like spears, stabbed fiercely at the girl in front of it.
Fortunately, Qing Teng reacted in advance and was not left within the opponent's attack range, thus avoiding being seriously injured by the attack.
To her surprise, the giant spider's round, bulging abdomen suddenly bulged out, and a large amount of white spider silk shot out from the tip of its green-haired tail.
These spider silks moved incredibly fast, like a hail of bullets, shooting towards the retreating little girl.
Qing Teng's pupils contracted, and he immediately waved his hand to summon several vines to resist the spider silk.
Although spider silk is extremely penetrating, it is blocked by the numerous vines.
However, before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her thigh!
Looking down, she saw a greenish-blue spider, about the size of a human head, hiding among the spider silk. It had somehow bypassed the vines and sneaked up to her, taking a bite out of her thigh!
Enraged, Qing Teng slammed down with his palm, instantly turning the spider into minced meat.
However, at the hem of the green skirt, a noticeable bite mark was left on the originally fair skin of the legs, which was very conspicuous on the fair skin.
Moreover, in just a few breaths, several green lines started from the bite mark and spread upwards along the girl's fair skin.
The girl's face turned pale instantly!
This little green spider was incredibly poisonous, even her Wood Spirit body couldn't withstand it, and she had to use all her spiritual energy to resist the poison.
"Hehehe... You've been poisoned by my green spider venom, so you won't live much longer. Become nourishment in my belly... The little girl is so pretty and fresh, she must be quite delicious!"
At this moment, the upper body of a woman appeared on the head of the giant spider in the center of the open space!
The woman had a fiery figure and a seductive posture. She was only covered by a strapless top, with large areas of skin exposed. She was wild and alluring, which contrasted sharply with the cold and terrifying spider-like creature beneath her!
As the saying goes, "beauty is but a skeleton," this is exactly what it means!
The spider woman licked her lips, staring with amusement at the green vine lying half-prostrate on the ground not far away due to poisoning. She smiled faintly and said, "I didn't want to be your enemy, but I didn't expect you to pursue me so relentlessly. Little girl, if you have a next life, remember to be smarter and not be so reckless!"
"Bah! Demonic cultists, everyone has the right to kill them!"
"You're not human! Why are you taking this so seriously?"
Qing Teng was taken aback: "That seems to be true..."
"..."
Good heavens, I've run into a fairy who's even dumber than me.
The giant spider strode towards the slowly collapsing green vine.
But after walking only a few steps, countless vines sprouted from the center of the open space once again, wrapping around the spider.
On the other side, Qing Teng continued to grit her teeth, her hands forming hand seals to control these giant vines.
However, due to the severe injury to its main body, the power of these giant vines was far less than before, and they could only bind the giant spider, but could not pose a threat to it.
Seeing this, Lingmu felt relieved. She looked at the girl not far away with a cold smile, and did not rush to break free of the vines to catch the prey.
Since the girl was forcing herself to cast the spell, she couldn't resist the invasion of toxins into her body, and she would die from the poison sooner or later!
Spiders typically hunt by waiting for their prey to become poisoned and lose its ability to resist before devouring it.
It has to be said that the wood spirit energy emanating from this little girl made Lingmu's mouth water; she hadn't tasted such delicious food in a long time.
Furthermore, she had no need to worry about Qing Teng escaping.
Once the green vines stop casting their spells, she can easily break free of the vines binding her and begin her pursuit.
The poisoned vine couldn't escape quickly... and without anyone to help her detoxify, she was doomed to die.
Therefore, instead of expending spiritual energy to break free from the vines, it is better to wait for the vines to fully take effect and then go forward and devour them.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, an unexpected turn of events suddenly occurred.
Suddenly, a figure leaped out from the woods behind Lingmu, wielding a steel sword, and stabbed fiercely at the spider's round, bulging abdomen.
"clang!"
"Crack..."
The longsword snapped in two...
The spider was completely unharmed...
Shen Yunhao stood behind the spider, holding a broken sword, looking rather bewildered.
The woman on the spider's back also turned her head blankly, blinked, and looked somewhat bewildered.
A moment later, Shen Yunhao cursed, "Damn it! I spent five spirit stones to buy this sword, and it's broken already?"
Lingmu: "..."
Qing Teng: "..."
...
Rewinding to a quarter of an hour earlier, Shen Yunhao followed the traces of the fight and soon arrived at the open space ahead, where he finally saw the two people fighting.
The moment he appeared was also the moment when Qing Teng used a fake body to deceive Ling Mu and unleashed the Ten Thousand Vine Formation to fight the enemy.
The soul power of the demon race in the Soul Condensation Realm was not too strong, so neither Qing Teng nor Ling Mu noticed Shen Yunhao hiding in the forest.
Shen Yunhao witnessed the back-and-forth fighting between the two until Qing Teng was completely at a disadvantage due to poisoning, at which point he decided to take the risk and try to save her.
The girl was worried about his safety yesterday and went to great lengths to escort him out of the valley. How could he stand idly by when he saw her in trouble today? Moreover, he knew that if Qing Teng died, he would have no chance to enter Lingyou Valley again.
Although Shen Yunhao's cultivation level was weak, he still had a Xuan-level life-saving magic treasure given to him by Zhu Li, which could help him escape danger at critical moments.
Even if he himself cannot pose a threat to a demon in the Soul Condensation Realm, as long as he can attract the other party's attention, he might be able to find an opportunity for Qing Teng on the other side to counter the spider demon.
Shen Yunhao's timing was impeccable; it was precisely when Lingmu was trapped by the vines of the green vine and unable to move.
Even if the spider demon could sense Shen Yunhao's attack immediately, it would be difficult for him to dodge the attack due to his restricted movement!
But... Shen Yunhao did not expect this.
The power of this attack was so weak that the opponent didn't even need to fight back. Even if he stood still, Shen Yunhao couldn't do anything to him.
To be precise, even those vines couldn't pose a threat to the spider demon's true form. How could he possibly harm her with a mere ordinary sword?
He still targeted the spider's softest part, its abdomen, but little did he know that beneath the spider's green fur lay a solid, hard armor covering its entire body...
Even a magical treasure might not be able to damage it, let alone an ordinary one.
The sword strike not only made his hand go numb, but it also failed to cut off a single spider hair.
Truly... completely unharmed!
"Ahem! Um... I was just passing by, you guys continue..."
After saying that, Shen Yunhao turned around decisively, intending to take advantage of the opportunity while the spider demon was still bound by the vines to escape.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
But behind her came the spider demon's unrestrained laughter: "What an adorable child! So cute that it makes my mouth water..."
