Global Demon Transformation.

Chapter 508 No bones left
Lin Feng was suspended in mid-air by a jet-black spider leg that resembled a spear, and his left chest was pierced by it.

All of this happened so suddenly that some people were still somewhat bewildered and hadn't really reacted yet.

The killer kept it a secret from everyone.

And his target for assassination was He Jun.

In Lin Feng's team, He Jun was very low-key. His talent and strength were both very ordinary and not at all dazzling.

Even if some people notice her abilities and value, it's just speculation.

Because of her importance and her relatively weak abilities, she was always under the protection of her teammates.

Her position was always the safest in the squad.

Even during intense battles, two people were always by her side to protect her.

Assassinating her would be far more difficult than assassinating anyone else.

Even so, the assassin still chose her.

If Lin Feng hadn't reacted in time, and if it weren't for the divine-level soul skill, Substitute, He Jun would already be dead.

Because that spider leg was aimed at her head.

"what!"

Lin Feng let out a painful roar, his eyes were bloodshot, and he tried to grab the spider leg that had pierced through his chest, but he was powerless.

As the spider leg pierced Lin Feng's heart, its speed did not decrease; like a scorpion's tail, it lashed out at his head again.

The barbs were tearing brutally at his heart and flesh, and Lin Feng could almost hear the sound of his muscles being ripped apart.

The excruciating pain caused his body to twitch uncontrollably. If it weren't for the 'green hat' on his head constantly releasing a large amount of life energy, he might not have been able to hold on.

He wanted to unleash the [Transformation] soul skill, but whether it was due to the excruciating pain or the poisoning, his head felt unusually dizzy.

Unable to concentrate, the soul skill failed to be released.

He was powerless to stop the sharp spider legs that appeared before him.

"roll!"

With a deafening roar, Ye Xing, his body radiating crimson steam, charged towards Lin Feng like a colossal beast.

At that moment, a figure arrived first, and just as the spider leg was about to pierce Lin Feng's head, without him making any move, a flash of green light appeared.

The spider's leg was severed with a single cut, and a yellowish-green liquid spurted out.

"Humph…"

The moment the spider's leg was severed, a muffled groan came from the ground.

Without the support of the spider legs, Lin Feng fell from mid-air and was caught by Yun Tianqi. At this moment, Ye Xing also appeared beside him and grabbed the half of the spider leg that was about to retract into the ground.

He pulled hard, feeling the resistance from the ground, trying his best not to let it break free.

"Ah Bing, hurry!"

After catching Lin Feng, Yun Tianqi had no intention of helping Ye Xing. He immediately launched himself away and arrived at A Bing's side, his voice somewhat anxious.

At this moment, Lin Feng still had a spider leg stuck in his chest, his eyes were already somewhat unfocused, and his neck was dark purple, which was spreading towards his face.

Ye Xing gripped the spider legs tightly with both hands. To avoid slipping, he did not release his soul skills or possess his spirit power, but instead let the dense barbs pierce into his flesh.

He used all his strength, and his already exaggerated arm muscles swelled up even more, as if a python was hiding under his skin.

"Get out here, you bastard."

Ye Xing looked down into the ground and cursed.

That muffled groan just now has already revealed the other party's identity as either human or an alien.

It would be difficult for alien races to hide in the city; the ubiquitous surveillance would leave them nowhere to hide.

Alien races may appear in the wild, but it is almost impossible for them to hide in human cities.

At this time, Zhou Yuncheng was full of powerful individuals, and no alien expert would dare to come looking for death.

Therefore, it is more likely to be a human.

Just as they feared, the monsters were not the most terrifying thing; even if they were outmatched, they could retreat.

What's truly terrifying are the enemies lurking in the shadows.

Humans taking action angered Ye Xing far more than monsters and alien races.

"Be careful."

With a cry of alarm, just as Ye Xing was pulling, a black spike suddenly shot out from the soil in front of him, heading straight for Ye Xing's head.

"get out!"

With a roar, Ye Xing's expression twisted, as if he was unaware of the danger, and he pulled with all his might regardless of the consequences.

Amidst flying debris, Ye Xing pulled out a gigantic, pitch-black creature with eight spider legs, and in the instant he lowered his head, he flung it away violently.

Ye Xing wanted to smash it to the ground and turn it into a meat patty, but that would definitely pierce his head as well.

"Damn it, it really is human."

Ye Xing looked at the guy he had pulled out, his face full of savagery and murderous intent.

It is indeed a human being.

The face was not clearly visible, but it could be determined that it was a man.

The man was not tall, only about 1.65 meters. His eyes were a strange dark purple, exuding an evil aura. Most of his face and chest were covered by black carapace. Eight sharp, slender spider legs extended from his waist and abdomen. Each spider leg was three or four meters long, like a spear, allowing him to stand in mid-air.

Each of those spider legs was covered with dense, barbed hairs.

This is a nightmare for people with trypophobia.

One of the eight spider legs was severed, leaving only one-third of the original length, but this did not affect the man's balance.

Supported by his spider legs, he lifted his legs off the ground, his spider leg joints slightly bent, and his body moved up and down like a spring.

"This person is the assassin Gui Ba, with the strength of a high-level Spirit King. He has refined a ninth-tier Eight Ghost Spider. His innate skill is the same as mine: spider silk, which makes him good at burrowing. However, his demon spirit cultivation focuses on strengthening the eight spider legs, leaning towards speed and agility. Its venom is also very potent, and it can be released through the pores on the spider legs."

Huang Tianze stared intently at the humanoid spider that had appeared before him and loudly reminded everyone.

There are hundreds of known spider-like spirits, and the appearance of a spirit possessing another varies, but they are all similar and generally indistinguishable to the average person.

Huang Tianze was very knowledgeable about spider-like spirits and recognized at a glance what kind of spirit the person in front of him had refined.

Although the man's demon spirit level was not as high as his Netherworld Spider, this Ghost Eight's strength was clearly superior to his.

Above everyone else.

Putting aside everything else, the fact that he could pull Ye Xing with his strength underground is enough to prove that he has surpassed the ninth rank.

He is a Spirit King!
There aren't many people who can refine the Eight Demon Spiders and still possess the strength of a Spirit King. The most famous one is the Eight Demon Spider, ranked 37th on the assassin list.

Only he could sneak up underground undetected and assassinate them.

Only he would dare to kill them.

It was precisely because of his great strength that he was above everyone else that, despite the failed assassination attempt and being surrounded by people, he remained calm and fearless, even having the leisure to look at everyone.

"Damn it, he really is an assassin."

Yu Qiao cursed, his figure gradually merging into the air and soon disappearing.

As a man determined to become the number one assassin, Yu Qiao was naturally familiar with the figures on the assassin list.

He just didn't expect to meet her so soon.

And upon closer inspection, he was clearly a ruthless character ranked 37th on the assassin list!

He's a high-ranking Spirit King!
"You actually know me."

Gui Ba glanced at Huang Tianze and chuckled softly, his voice sounding somewhat shrill. He seemed puzzled, but not surprised.

He glanced around, and finally his gaze settled on Ah Bing.

At this point, Ah Bing had already entered a demonic state.

In his demonic form, he grew much taller, reaching a full three meters. His long hair and eyes turned a withered yellow, his face became more elongated, and his entire body was covered in blood-red straw.

He placed his hands on Lin Feng's back.

At this moment, Lin Feng was in very poor mental condition, and it was clear that he was barely keeping his senses up.

The green hat on his head emitted a strong green light, constantly releasing wood-type life force. Dong Yunan's eyes were anxious at this moment, and he was also constantly releasing water-type nourishing spells.

Normally, a punctured heart almost certainly means death, and even two therapists would be of no use.

Moreover, Lin Feng was also poisoned.

Fortunately, most of the damage Lin Feng suffered was absorbed and transferred by A Bing.

Beside Ah Bing, He Jun was already in tears, his eyes filled with self-blame and guilt.

As the most important member of the team besides Lin Feng, He Jun has always played a supporting role. Her teammates care about her, protect her, and make no demands on her, which she has gradually gotten used to.

Although Dong Yunan and Chen Tianming are also healers, they will also join the battle while providing assistance.

Chen Tianming was one of the key players.

But she didn't.

She has completely relegated herself to a purely support role, and she doesn't even train as hard as she used to.

Logically speaking, since she cannot absorb soul skills, is the weakest, and needs to ensure her own safety, it seems reasonable for her to be a pure support.

But at this moment, she deeply hated her own weakness.

Even if she cannot absorb soul skills, she can still cultivate martial arts and martial techniques, and she also has the ability to break free and avoid danger.

It won't implicate my teammates.

If he had been stronger and had detected the danger sooner, Lin Feng wouldn't have been seriously injured.

"The blood-red scarecrow on the Earth Ranking actually has such a demonic spirit."

"Ghost Eight said, his tone filled with amazement."

His target has always been He Jun.

It was supposed to be foolproof, but he clearly didn't expect Lin Feng to be so noble, using his substitute soul skill to save He Jun.

Even more unexpectedly, someone in Lin Feng's team had refined the Crimson Scarecrow.

Almost!
Just a little bit closer!
What a shame.

Noticing the murderous intent in their eyes and their growing approach, Gui Ba smiled and asked, "Now that you know who I am, are you sure you can stop me?"

Having the strength of a high-level Spirit King, he was not afraid of Lin Feng's team, but he did not want to get too entangled, after all, there were still many kings in Zhouyun City.

There are also three emperors outside the city.

If we get surrounded, that would be terrible.

This is also why he plans to leave.

"Laugh at your mother."

Yun Kai cursed, his tone filled with murderous intent and rage.

With a wave of his hand, seven sharp swords shot towards Gui Ba. Regardless of who Gui Ba was or what his strength was, he only wanted to kill him.

Gui Ba's face darkened. He hadn't expected anyone to actually dare to make a move. The four spider legs swung around so fast that their trajectory was impossible to see. The swords were constantly being knocked away, but they kept reappearing in front of Gui Ba.

As the sword continued its relentless attacks, Yun Tianqi appeared before Gui Ba, wielding his twin blades with incredible speed.

A series of streaks of blue light flashed as Yun Tianqi's scythe-shaped blade slashed across Gui Ba's neck. If he had been any closer, he could have severed Gui Ba's head.

"Haha."

A soft laugh, tinged with mockery, seemed to be laughing at Yun Tianqi's overestimation of his abilities.

"Dual-wielding Yun Tianqi, you want to compete with me in attack speed?"

With a light tap of his spider legs on the ground, Gui Ba leaped and dodged Yun Tianqi's attacks like a spider. He swung his spider legs, creating a series of afterimages. His attack speed was extremely fast, and since his spider legs could attack simultaneously, Yun Tianqi was unable to keep up with his speed for a while.

The speed and rhythm of this attack gave Yun Tianqi the feeling of facing Zhan Tianyu.

But Gui Ba is clearly much more difficult to deal with than Zhan Tianyu.

It's not just a difference in strength; the attack speed alone is fine, but the main problem is that Oni-Yagi's movement trajectory is difficult to predict.

Even if the judgment is correct, Oni-Ba can transform instantly thanks to his spider legs.

Before anyone knew it, Gui Ba had already leaped up and appeared above Yun Tianqi's head, his seven spider legs shooting out simultaneously, stabbing at Yun Tianqi from different angles.

The vast difference in strength resulted in an overwhelming advantage in speed, power, and reaction time.

Faced with such an attack, even with Yun Tianqi's twin swords moving at lightning speed, he could not completely defend against it.

"laugh"

His left shoulder and right leg were pierced by spider legs, and the wounds were numb, indicating that he had been poisoned.

Just as Oni-Ba pulled out the spider leg and was about to press his advantage, three huge spider webs appeared before him.

A sharp screech rang out, and a purple bolt of lightning appeared above his head without warning. The lightning was so fast that Oni-ba couldn't dodge it and could only defend against it.

For any spirit master, regardless of the spirit training direction or combat style, defensive soul skills are indispensable.

People like Lin Feng, who almost never absorb defensive soul skills, are rarer than giant pandas!
A black protective shield enveloped Oni-Hachi's entire body, and lightning struck the shield, causing both of them to vanish simultaneously.

Gui Ba surveyed his surroundings. His seven spider legs moved rapidly on the ground as he rushed toward Lin Feng. However, he suddenly stopped halfway there. He saw vines shoot up from the ground and wrap around him from all directions, which he dodged by jumping.

Gui Ba frowned; he felt the air suddenly become humid.

"Keng!"

The next moment, chains of ice seemed to shoot out from the air, clashing like metal, and appeared in front of him, blocking his way. At the same time, vines leaped up like venomous snakes, trying to entangle and bind him.

Around him, a dozen golden swords whistled towards him, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.

He was caught in a pincer movement and had nowhere left to retreat.

"interesting."

The teamwork of Lin Feng's squad surprised Gui Ba.

Although he was a high-ranking Spirit King, his physical abilities were not much better than those of Ye Xing and the others.

The Spirit King's mark is his life spirit, and his strength also comes from his life spirit, not his physical attributes.

Even he found it difficult to withstand the coordinated attack from Lin Feng's team.

"Humph!"

Gui Ba let out a cold snort, stood still, and stopped dodging. A violent energy wave swept out, and his eight spider legs quickly retracted into his body. A pitch-black spider with a height of three meters and a body diameter of over five meters emerged.

This spider's soul also has eight legs, which are entirely composed of energy.

Under the cover of the life spirit, the ice chains were shattered, the sword was broken, and the vines that tried to entwine around the life spirit were easily torn apart.

Rumble!
Even the most powerful lightning attack only caused a slight ripple on the surface of the soul.

"Do you really think you can defeat me?" Oni-ba sneered.

If it weren't for the fear of attracting other powerful figures during the battle, every single member of Lin Feng's team would have died here.

Just when he thought that Lin Feng's team would give up after seeing his strength, a figure like a giant beast suddenly appeared in front of him. With a punch, a series of air explosions came from the air. Even with Gui Ba's life soul possessing him, this terrifying power forced him back several steps.

At this moment, the others also took action, bombarding Oni-Ba's life soul with all sorts of diamond soul skills.

Perhaps due to overconfidence and a sense of impunity, Oni-Hachi didn't even bother with much defense.

"Want to escape?"

Ye Xing sneered, and a figure appeared behind him.

It's Yang Ningbing.

She waved the white bone staff in her hand, and a dark thundercloud quickly condensed above Gui Ba's head. At first, Gui Ba didn't care. Although thunder magic was powerful, it couldn't penetrate the life soul at all.

Since his life soul cannot be penetrated, he is naturally unharmed.

However, when he soon discovered that the lightning occasionally bursting out from the thunderclouds was actually red, his expression changed slightly, and his eyes finally showed a hint of seriousness.

There are many lightning-type soul skills, and the colors of the lightning summoned vary depending on the soul skill.

Only one of the Soul Skills summons red lightning.

That is [the tribulation of lightning].

There are three divine-level soul skills in the lightning element, and [Lightning Tribulation] is one of them.

It is not the most destructive lightning-type soul skill, nor is it the fastest attacking soul skill. In fact, its casting speed is somewhat slow. However, among the three god-level soul skills, it is the most feared.

The reason it is so fearsome is that [lightning tribulation] cannot be dodged.

No matter where you hide, or how you conceal yourself or isolate yourself, it will lock onto you and descend upon you.

Faced with this soul skill, the only way is to rely on strength to withstand it.

"Oh shit!"

As the thunderclouds spun rapidly, Gui Ba's expression grew increasingly grim.

This soul skill isn't particularly powerful; he can withstand it thanks to his life soul.

He will not get hurt.

However, this soul skill was able to restrain him, making it difficult for him to break free.

Gui Ba looked at Yang Ningbing behind Ye Xing.

He had information on Yang Ningbing and knew her identity, but he never expected that she would possess the [Thunder Tribulation] soul skill.

With the Yang family's financial resources, there is certainly no problem, but how could she possibly succeed in absorbing them?

Even for a Spirit King level expert, the success rate of absorbing this divine-level soul skill is not high, not exceeding 20%.

"What a lucky bastard!"

"This commotion is bound to attract attention. I should have left earlier."

At this moment, Gui Ba began to regret it. If he had known this would happen, he shouldn't have conserved his soul power. He should have directly possessed the body and left quickly.

Even when Ye Xing grabbed the spider's leg, it should have just cut off one of its own legs.

He looked up at Lei Yun, his soul power flowing rapidly, and the life soul outside his body radiating a dark and profound light.

He did not dodge, nor could he dodge.

“BOOM!!!”

A deafening clap of thunder rang out, making one's heart skip a beat.

A massive, stunning red lightning bolt descended from the sky, instantly appearing above Gui Ba's head. Even before it landed, the space itself distorted, filling the air with a burnt smell.

The crimson lightning struck down viciously, sending rocks flying and the ground suddenly collapsing.

The spider's life spirit trembled slightly, but the demon inside remained unharmed.

Although his soul was unharmed, this was not enough to make Gui Ba relax, because there were seven [lightning tribulations] in total, and each one was more powerful than the last, provided that his soul power was sufficient.

"That's amazing!"

Yu Qiao revealed himself, a hint of excitement in his eyes.

This was not the first time Yang Ningbing had used [Lightning Tribulation]. She had also used it once in the Chaotic Land, but its power was very weak due to spatial suppression.

Without spatial suppression, [Thunder Tribulation] finally revealed its terrifying power as a god-level soul skill.

"boom"

Five seconds later, the thunder roared again, making people almost deaf.

Compared to the first lightning bolt, the second lightning bolt was significantly more powerful.

The lightning continued to strike, and the soul remained intact, but its radiance had noticeably dimmed.

When the sixth lightning tribulation disappeared, leaving only the last lightning tribulation, Ye Qiu and Bu Yuanlong appeared on either side of Gui Ba.

The two attacked simultaneously.

Ye Qiu hadn't made a move until now, when he did, he unleashed his most powerful attack: a ball of pitch-black flame.

The hellfire was burning the left side of the spider's soul, and even showed a tendency to spread into the soul's interior.

Meanwhile, Bu Yuanlong touched the right side of the spider's life soul with his right hand, releasing the divine-level soul skill [Ice Crystallization].

The biting cold spread along the soul, freezing the right half of it into dazzling ice crystals.

Ice and fire, two god-level soul skills, are released simultaneously.

The two opposing forces did not cancel each other out; instead, they amplified the power, causing the once intact soul to begin to crack and develop fissures.

As he watched the cracks spreading across his soul and heard the clear cracking sound echoing in his ears, a hint of fear appeared in Gui Ba's eyes.

Before the seventh lightning tribulation descended, Ye Qiu and Bu Yuanlong quickly retreated.

At this point, the soul could no longer hold on and began to shatter at a visible speed.

"Sword Rain!"

Yun Kai waved his hand, and a rain of golden swords fell from the sky, giving Gui Ba no chance to escape.

"what happened?"

"Crimson lightning, this is a divine-level soul skill [Thunder Tribulation]!"

"Let's go and see which Spirit King is so lucky."

The arrival of the lightning tribulation was quite a spectacle, attracting the attention of many people.

When they arrived, the seventh lightning tribulation was just descending. Before their eyes, a huge spider soul shattered and dissipated into black specks of light.

"Boom"

With a deafening explosion, the figure within the soul had no chance to resist the violent power of the thunderbolt and exploded to its death.

With the combined power of four divine-level soul skills, a high-ranking spirit king was brutally killed.

No bones left!
