Chapter 6: The Poisonous Spider

  Chapter 6: The Kiss of the Poisonous Spider

  "You eavesdropped on our conversation!" The armed youth's face was sinister, his weapon aimed at Shen Cong from a distance, and he would take action immediately if anything went wrong.

  "It's just a coincidence that I'm passing by!" Shen smiled slightly, ignoring the gun-wielding youth's stare and instead observing the others. There were five people in total, one woman and four men. The strongest among them was likely the leader, but in terms of combat strength, the gun-wielding youth might be even more formidable.

  "Which sect are you a disciple of?" The leader took a step forward, feeling that Shen Cong didn't have too much malice, and a hint of a smile appeared on his face. "It seems I haven't seen you here before."

  "Luoshui Sect Shen Cong, out for the first time to hunt."

  "What's 'Luoshui Sect'?" The crowd was taken aback, turning their heads to look at the woman. The woman also looked surprised, carefully examining Shen Cong's face, but there was no impression on it.

  "This time, we're going to take down a second-tier top-notch poisonous spider. If you don't have any real strength, it's better not to participate, lest something happens!" The leader said after some deliberation, Shen Cong's face looked somewhat young, and his aura didn't seem particularly powerful either. If he was just average in terms of ability, he would be a burden later on, so it was better if he didn't come along. It's always better to say the ugly words upfront, even if they're hard to hear, but things will go more smoothly that way.

  "I won't hold everyone back!" Shen Cong walked to a large tree and, without any build-up, directly punched the hardest part of the trunk.

  "Bang!"

  With a crisp sound, when Shen Cong withdrew his fist, a hole the size of a fist had already appeared on the trunk, directly penetrating the one-meter diameter tree trunk, while the edges around it looked quite smooth.

  "Good fist technique, the power is heavy but not scattered, directly condensing the energy into a single point, increasing the attack several times!" The leader shouted in praise, and the others also looked somewhat moved. Even the most arrogant gun-wielding youth, at this moment, looked at Shen Cong with eyes that were no longer disdainful.

  "It's too much!" Shen Cong walked back with a calm expression, his strength was great and condensed, it might be difficult for other martial artists, but for Shen Cong, it was extremely simple. His physical strength was originally strong, Shen Cong didn't need to use his full power like others did, using 50% of his energy to amplify his attack, he could naturally control it with ease. Moreover, the Nurturing Life Scripture was calm and steady, Shen Cong's cultivation was one step at a time, so his grasp of strength was naturally proficient.

  "Welcome to join us, I am Yang Tong, he is Li Yi, and the other three are Zhao Ming, Zhang Hao, and Qian Min. If we really kill that demon beast in the end, then we'll distribute it according to our efforts, you don't have any objections, do you?"

  "Alright, I'll do as you say." Shen Cong nodded his head. He had joined this team in order to gain a better understanding of the demonic beasts, and any other benefits were secondary. If he really wanted to obtain silver coins or the like in the future, Shen Cong was fully capable of going out alone to hunt down the demonic beasts.

  A group of people set out again. Li Yi, who was injured, suddenly asked Qian Min, "Are all the outer door disciples of Luoshui Sect so powerful?"

  "How is that possible!" Qian Min was stunned and lost her smile, "However, there are indeed a few very powerful ones, this time they all want to enter the inner gate, but as for that person just now, I don't have the slightest impression, and in the usual days at the gate, I haven't heard anything about him, it's a bit strange."

  After walking for half an hour, the crowd's pace gradually slowed down. Although they still hadn't seen the poisonous spider, there were more green miasma around them, and within the miasma was a swamp that kept bubbling up.

  "Everyone be careful, there are many poisonous substances here. The venomous spider is just one of them and not even the most powerful one. Let's keep a safe distance when we make our move!"

  Others nodded cautiously, and when they were about thirty meters away from the swamp, Yang Tong signaled everyone to stop. He then took out a medicinal herb from his jade box. As soon as the herb appeared, a nauseating aura spread out, "This is Spider Orchid, it's one of the plants that the Poisonous Spider loves the most. Eating it often has great benefits for them."

  Others didn't react much, apparently they already knew. Shen Cong took a light breath, and that nauseating air had little effect on himself. His body had transformed into a zombie, although there were many disadvantages, but there were also some advantages, such as many poisonous things, which had a greatly reduced effect on Shen Cong, or even became ineffective.

  After ten minutes, the swamp did not have any reaction. Li Yi was about to speak when suddenly the miasma in the swamp violently churned up. Something was rushing out from inside with considerable speed.

  "Retreat, it's a poisonous spider, it's already been hooked, lead it to a safe location and we'll ambush it!" Yang Tong's face lit up with joy, grabbing the Spider Grass, his body shape retreated violently.

  "Hiss!"

  A shrill cry came, and except for Shen Cong, everyone else's figure involuntarily paused. Although it only took a moment to recover normally, it was enough to let the poisonous spider catch up. Equivalent to the second-order cultivation of human beings, it can be considered one of the strongest among several people, and naturally, its speed will not be slow. In just a few seconds, it caught up, and the green eyes revealed only ruthless light.

  "Looking for death!" Seeing that it's too late to retreat, Yang Tong first put away the spider silk grass, then let out a loud roar, and the steel knife in his hand transformed into a whip-like slash, with a powerful force that could split even a boulder in two. Yang Tong himself also revealed a satisfied expression.

  Unfortunately, the poisonous spider didn't work out, but instead Yang Tong's massive body shook violently, a dark shadow flashed before his eyes, and he flew out in vain. The skin armor on his chest burst open with a huge crack, and fresh blood had already seeped into his clothes.

  "This is bad, this poisonous spider is even more vicious than last time it came! Everyone, let's go together!" Just a brief encounter, the person with the highest cultivation was already injured. The others, after being shocked, didn't dare to hesitate and all charged forward.

  "Hiss!"

  It seemed to have seen blood, and the poisonous spider became extremely excited, not only did it not show any fear towards the people rushing over, but instead rushed forward to meet them. The two front legs in front of it turned into a blur in mid-air, constantly parrying the attacks of the crowd, even though the crowd had the advantage of having weapons, but the poisonous spider relied on its own body and did not fall behind at all.

  "Shen Cong, what are you doing over there? Come and help us!" Li Yi and Zhang Hao were already injured, and this poisonous spider was even more ferocious than before. Yang Tong was also injured as soon as he met it, making it even harder for everyone to resist. Seeing Shen Cong just standing there without moving, how could they not be angry?

  "Bad, and there's another poisonous creature coming out of the swamp!" Qian Min suddenly discovered that the miasma in the distance was rolling again, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat. Resisting one poisonous spider was already difficult enough, if another came, they could only flee in disarray, and whether they could escape or not was still a question.

  "It's another poisonous spider, and that one seems to be the one we met last time!" A smaller poisonous spider rushed out of the miasma, its breath slightly weaker than the one in front, but only slightly.

  "Everyone retreat, two are coming at the same time, we can't hold on!" Zhao Ming growled, his long spear pointing at the poisonous spider, causing its body to shake violently. If it were only one, Zhao Ming might still be able to fight back to death, but with two coming together, no matter how high his skills were, he would be powerless.

  "It's all Shen Cong's fault! He embroidered a flower pillow, and was so scared that he didn't dare to come forward. Next time, I'll definitely settle this account with him!" Zhao Ming thought to himself in anger.

  The owl-faced poisonous spider was temporarily held back, and the other three did not dare to let go of this opportunity, all jumping backward, but at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed into the arms of the owl-faced poisonous spider. The fierce energy blew away all the dust around. When the dust settled, the owl-faced poisonous spider, which had been unusually arrogant before, was already quietly lying on the ground motionless, with green blood seeping out from its body.

  "Hiss!"

  A furious scream came from a distance, others didn't react yet, but as a fellow spider, the poisonous spider felt its companion's death and rushed over at an even faster speed than before, directly targeting Shen Cong, because he was standing next to the dead poisonous spider.

  "Shen Cong, be careful..." Qian Min almost subconsciously wanted to remind Shen Cong, but before he could finish speaking, Shen Cong's figure had already disappeared on the spot and heavily collided with a distant poisonous spider.

  "Hiss!"

  A shriller cry than before, with anger in it, but more of fear, and then suddenly cut off, as if the throat had been grasped, if a spider has such a thing.

  "Is he dead?"

  At this moment, even the fastest reacting person would be a bit confused. However, when the dust settles and the poisonous spiders lie quietly on the side, facts always triumph over words. Shen Cong, who had been watching from the sidelines, unexpectedly killed two poisonous spiders single-handedly, his strength was simply unimaginable.

  "Shen brothers, how did you do it!" Li Yi exclaimed in surprise, and at this moment he still felt a little embarrassed because just now he suspected that Shen Cong was a coward.

  "Find the weakness, one punch is enough!" Shen Cong said it simply, but the few people around him didn't dare to think so. The weakness of the poisonous spider lies in its abdomen, but this weakness they know, the poisonous spider itself understands even more clearly, which is why it only uses two front legs to fight with them, in order to better protect its own weakness. Moreover, when the poisonous spider is in danger, it will spray out toxins, and warriors who are not deeply cultivated will feel dizzy if they get a little bit on them.

  "No matter what, we've finally killed that poisonous spider, and their nest is just nearby. Let's go take a look next!" Yang Tong was in high spirits, despite being injured, but his goal had been achieved.

  The owl spider is not easy to hunt and kill, so the price in town is quite high. The venom sacs and eight sharp legs can sell for a good price. However, the most valuable thing is the owl spider's nest, which must contain some precious poisonous herbs, and that's the real gain.

  Each of these demonic beasts has its own territory, and other demonic beasts generally do not invade. Especially when two poisonous spiders are together, others of the same level dare not even more, so at this moment going to the poisonous spider's lair is the safest time.

  "Go, now it's past!" After a simple bandaging, everyone was in high spirits and easily found the nest of the poisonous spider.

  With a detox pill in his mouth, everyone walked in with their heads down. Shen Cong walked behind, took a few breaths of the surrounding air, and didn't feel uncomfortable, revealing a satisfied smile on his face. However, in order not to let others notice anything unusual, he also threw the detox pill into his mouth.
