Immortals Step into Heaven

Yet, the Black Fire Spider would never let its prey go. Its massive form moved as swiftly as black lightning, its every step causing the ground to tremble violently. Its eight long legs shifted rapidly, quickly closing the distance between them and Li Dahui. Li Dahui could clearly hear the terrifying footsteps approaching behind him, and the aura of death hung like a thorn in his back. He desperately summoned his magical power, but fear had already disrupted its flow.

Just as Li Dahui reached a narrow passage, a black fire spider pounced. Its sharp claws, like giant pincers, stabbed into Li Dahui's back. Li Dahui let out a shrill scream, and blood gushed from his mouth.

The black fire spider lifted him up high and then threw him heavily to the ground. Li Dahui's body became twisted under the impact, and the breath of life quickly dissipated. The surrounding air seemed to be stained with despair by this bloody scene.

Zheng Yuan's face was pale, and his heart was beating wildly in his chest. He watched helplessly as the monks of the Demon Fire Sect were killed one by one by the attacks of the black fire spiders.

But he knew he couldn't just sit there and wait for death. He suppressed his fear and slapped the Soul Storage Beast fiercely. A flash of light flashed, and Xiao Hei shot out from it. Xiao Hei's previously lively eyes flashed with a fierceness the moment he saw the Black Fire Spider. Hei sensed Zheng Yuan's emotions and the strength of his foe. The aura of a second-level demon beast erupted from him. It spread like a hurricane, and the air around them seemed to grow heavy.

Zheng Yuan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. He quickly pulled the low-grade Flowing Light Sword from his storage bag. As the sword emerged, a faint shimmer of light shone from its blade, as if imbued with boundless spiritual power. Simultaneously, the spiritual bracelet on his wrist emitted a soft glow, which quickly condensed into a transparent shield in front of him. The shield emanated waves of spiritual energy, his strongest defensive measure at the moment.

Xiao Hei transformed into a dark shadow, charging towards the Black Fire Spider like an arrow. Its speed was so great that it left a dark afterimage in the air. Its claws swung continuously at the Black Fire Spider, slashing at it with wind blades. However, the Black Fire Spider easily blocked its attacks.

Zheng Yuan seized the opportunity and charged towards the black fire spider with the Flowing Sword. The Flowing Sword slashed through the air in a dazzling arc, piercing the black fire spider's eyes. The black fire spider sensed Zheng Yuan's attack and glared at him with its eyes, burning with black flames, filled with cruelty and disdain. It lashed its tail violently, and the spikes on its tail swept towards Zheng Yuan with a whistling sound. Zheng Yuan quickly used the light shield emitted by the spirit bracelet to block it. The spikes pierced the light shield, causing a violent vibration, cracks to appear on the light shield, and Zheng Yuan was also shaken backward by the powerful force.

Zheng Yuan fell heavily to the ground, a sweet, fishy taste lingering in his mouth, but he forced himself to swallow the blood rising to his throat. He knew he couldn't give up now, or everyone would die here. He struggled to his feet, staring intently at the Black Fire Spider, his eyes filled with unyielding determination.

Seeing Zheng Yuan injured, Xiao Hei roared, his aura rising again. He swung his claws faster, and a dense stream of wind blades attacked the black fire spider.

Zheng Yuan seized the opportunity to launch another attack. He quickly formed seals with his hands and continuously poured his own magic power into the Flowing Light Sword. The Flowing Light Sword shone brightly and the blade became huge. He controlled the Flowing Light Sword and shot it towards the Black Fire Spider.

At the same time, he shouted, "Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei understood Zheng Yuan's call and launched a soul attack with a roar. The Black Fire Spider was dizzy and stunned by the roar.

Zheng Yuan controlled the Flowing Light Sword and shot it towards the right eye of the Black Fire Spider. The Black Fire Spider's right eye was pierced by the Flowing Light Sword and green liquid came out. The Black Fire Spider came to its senses and screamed in pain.

The black fire spider's painful screams echoed in the cave, the sound seemed to burst a person's eardrums. It waved its claws and long legs like crazy, and the surrounding stones were shattered by it, and the fragments flew everywhere.

Zheng Yuan didn't relax at all. He knew this was a life-or-death battle, and he had to seize the opportunity to win. He continued to transform his hands into magical seals, his magical power surging like a raging river toward the Flowing Light Sword, attempting to further expand his victory. The Black Fire Spider, pierced through its right eye, now focused all its rage on Zheng Yuan. Ignoring the green liquid still flowing from its eye, it pounced on him.

A cold glint flashed in Zheng Yuan's eyes, and he decisively retrieved the North Sea Stick from his storage space. As soon as the stick appeared, it emanated a golden luster. Simultaneously, he fully activated the shield on his spirit bracelet. The bracelet shone brightly, and the shield rapidly expanded, forming a transparent and resilient barrier of magical power around him, firmly protecting him.

Xiao Hei's eyes were like lightning, and he kept a close eye on the Black Fire Spider's every move. Seeing the Black Fire Spider make a new move, it flashed and flew in front of Zheng Yuan as fast as black lightning. Xiao Hei's eyes gleamed with light, and he launched another soul attack. With a cry of "Ah!", in an instant, a soul force so powerful that it made people's heart palpitate surged out of it. This soul attack was like a surging wave, fiercely impacting the Black Fire Spider's mental defense line, trying to completely interfere with its actions. Under the impact of the soul force, the Black Fire Spider's huge body stagnated slightly.

Zheng Yuan stared intently at the Black Fire Spider. When he saw Xiao Hei launch his attack, he unleashed his exquisite techniques from the Thirteen North Sea Staffs without hesitation. With lightning speed, he leaped high into the air, the North Sea Staff in his hand, infused with magical energy, radiating a dazzling golden glow. As if merging with the staff, he smashed fiercely into the Black Fire Spider's left eye. The blow, packed with immense force, sent a whistling sound that seemed to rip the air apart.

The Black Fire Spider had barely recovered from the daze of the soul attack when it felt a blinding flash of golden light. A massive golden staff loomed before its eyes like a mountain. A flicker of fear flashed across its single eye, ablaze with black flames. It knew that if it were struck again, it would be blinded. In this perilous cave, blindness meant death. Without a second thought, its massive body twisted, its head tilted to the side in a profoundly awkward position.

At this tense moment, a deafening metallic clang was heard. Zheng Yuan's powerful blow, while missing the Black Fire Spider's left eye, had struck the Flowing Light Sword firmly.
