"Did you encounter Sha Mo Yun and those people?"
Ling Xiao asked Li Yan.
Li Yan sighed and said, "Yes, if we hadn’t been chased by them so frantically, we wouldn’t have stumbled into the ambush circle of the Netherworld Wolves.
Sha Mo Yun and Chi Ling’er are incredibly powerful, and with the support of the disciples from Red Immortal Mountain, they run rampant, and everyone is afraid of them."
Ling Xiao furrowed his brows, it would indeed be troubleso if things were as Li Yan described.
Currently, Red Immortal Mountain has four groups, a total of twenty people left.
And the martial artists from other mountains are mostly unwilling to unite.
Because in this kind of assessnt, there’s mutual suspicion and distrust, unless they belong to the sa mountain like Red Immortal Mountain, otherwise, trying to unite is almost like a fantasy.
This makes the four teams from Red Immortal Mountain even more rampant and reckless.
"By the way, I heard them discussing that they planned to wipe out your team first, but for so reason, they lost their target halfway."
Li Yan suddenly added.
Ling Xiao smiled; he knew exactly why.
Those guys originally had his location, but because he erased the awareness of that expert in the Soul Lock Badge.
It made them lose their target instantly.
"Do they want to kill ? It’s not that easy."
Ling Xiao chuckled softly.
Sha Mo Yun and Chi Ling’er wanted to kill him.
He wouldn’t spare those two either.
The squad he took down earlier was just an appetizer.
"Ling Xiao, now I know your strength is impressive, but even so, you’re only in the top ten, not a match for either Sha Mo Yun or Chi Ling’er.
Now that they’ve even joined forces, you have even less chance.
So if you can avoid them, do so."
Li Yan spoke sincerely.
"That’s easier said than done."
Ling Xiao sighed and said, "Don’t forget, even though we’re taking different paths now, there’s only one road leading to Sky Demon Peak at the end, there’s no way to dodge forever.
Well, since they want dead, I’ll et them then."
"You really seem to take things in stride."
Li Yan smiled wryly and said, "Alas, I was going to help you, but it turns out you helped .
I just heard from Green Phoenix that you plan to go to Spider Cave, which is a detour.
But it’s good too, maybe you’ll avoid Chi Ling’er and Sha Mo Yun that way.
The five of us are mostly fine now and can depart on our own, so go ahead and do what you need to do."
"It’s mutual help, you might need Senior Sister Li Yan in the future."
Ling Xiao smiled.
When he’s not killing, he’s always that bright and sunny young man, soone who is easy to be around.
"Why don’t the five of us help you find Sha Mo Yun and Chi Ling’er first? If we find them, we can keep an eye on them and warn you in ti."
Li Yan thought about it and figured that in this assessnt, this was the only way she could help Ling Xiao, so she suggested.
"Alright, but don’t get too close."
Ling Xiao didn’t refuse Li Yan’s kindness; he knew it would make her feel more comfortable and less awkward.
"Of course, otherwise, we’d only be causing trouble for you."
Li Yan smiled and said.
"Take care!"
Ling Xiao cupped his hands towards them and then continued to lead Green Phoenix and the others towards Spider Cave.
As Ling Xiao disappeared into the mist, a martial artist from Li Yan’s team couldn’t help but say, "Senior Sister, did you notice that the aloof Green Phoenix actually listens to Ling Xiao."
"Yes, I noticed too. Ling Xiao single-handedly dealt with hundreds of Netherworld Wolves; his strength is undeniably terrifying.
Getting into the top ten shouldn’t be a problem. He’s much more formidable than I am."
Li Yan sighed and said, "Green Phoenix probably recognized Ling Xiao’s strength, which is why she treats him well."
"But that doesn’t add up. There are many stronger than Ling Xiao, yet I’ve never heard of Green Phoenix being with anyone."
Another disciple said, "This Ling Xiao must have sothing extraordinary, not in terms of strength, but sothing else."
Li Yan was montarily stunned and then thought about how they were separated by the dense mist, yet Ling Xiao found them.
Could Ling Xiao have so special ability?
He truly is inscrutable, this guy, having only joined the Eight Immortals Mountain for just two months, how has he grown like this?
How is he so monstrous?
...
With Ling Xiao leading the way, the originally perilous Sky Demon Mountain beca much easier to traverse.
Although they encountered several waves of monster beasts on the way, none were particularly dangerous.
The five of them easily handled them.
If it were Green Phoenix alone, reaching Spider Cave would be exhausting, consuming half her strength and energy just on the journey.
Ling Xiao even suspected that Zi Luo Lan had anticipated Green Phoenix going to Spider Cave and was waiting there to catch her off guard.
"Spider Cave, truly a dangerous place—its terrifying aura is palpable even before arrival."
Ling Xiao slowed down because Spider Cave was very close.
Approaching Spider Cave, many peculiar spiders appeared.
These spiders were small, only the size of a fingernail, yet possessed venom potent enough to kill an elephant.
Although martial artists’ bodies might be stronger than an elephant’s, once poisoned, they would still feel drowsy and might even faint on the spot.
"Ling Xiao, there are five Sky Demon Spiders in the Spider Cave, and they have beco spiritual and are very cunning. They are far more terrifying than those hundreds of Netherworld Wolves.
Not only is their venom extrely potent, but their spider silk is as tough as steel, nearly impossible to break.
Moreover, their strength is roughly at the Hell Mid Phase of the One-Star Second-Layer Hell level.
Even handling two at once is overwhelming for ; you all must not get close."
Green Phoenix warned, "Last year, when Zi Luo Lan and I clashed in Spider Cave, it was those Sky Demon Spiders that outwitted us."
Green Phoenix felt a little indebted, so she didn’t want Ling Xiao and the others to take unnecessary risks.
Although the four could certainly be strong allies, she truly didn’t want these previously unfamiliar people to get into trouble.
"We’ll decide when the ti cos. I said you won’t be eliminated, nor will you die, or my assessnt would end too.
I’m soone who likes to get things done quickly, I don’t want to wait until next year to set foot in the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain. Since I’m here for the assessnt, I aim to succeed and advance."
Ling Xiao glanced at Green Phoenix and said calmly, "But rest assured, if you can handle it, I won’t act rashly."
Green Phoenix sighed, thinking that this was the only way.
"We’re here!"
Ling Xiao suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Everyone looked ahead; in the black mist, they could vaguely see a giant spider lurking, its mouth wide open, waiting for its prey to fall into its belly.
