  However, they confronted not only a spiderweb, but still a terrifyingly strong, more than thirty thousand years Man Faced Demon Spider.

  The enormous demon spider quietly moved sideways, already waiting in the direction they had shifted to, four thick and solid spider legs thrusting perfectly straight at the two.

  The Eight Spider Lances blood draining effect came from the Man Faced Demon Spider, so Tang San of course knew what the result of being pricked by these spider legs would be. Even if his body was even more durable, he still wouldn’t dare come into contact with these terrifying blood sucking pikes.

  This moment Tang San’s rich combat experience was embodied. His sliding body using the four Eight Spider Lances below him to stick into the ground to halt him slightly, simultaneously raising the four Eight Spider Lances above, using spider lance against spider lance, meeting the Man Faced Demon Spider’s attack.

  A sonorous brittle sound echoed, and Tang San and Xiao Wu were sent flying by the tremendous impact. With a vomiting sound, Tang San again spouted up a mouthful of blood under the immense shock. Even at peak condition he would need to go all out against such a powerful spirit beast, let alone now that he only had forty percent power left.

  But that Man Faced Demon Spider didn’t find it easy either. Even though its spider pikes were still larger than Tang San’s Eight Spider Lances, Tang San lost out in power in both sides’ collision, but in durability, his external spirit bone Eight Spider Lances held the advantage.

  This ten thousand year Man Faced Demon Spider’s four spider pikes revealed four small holes, unexpectedly pierced by Tang San’s Eight Spider Lances.

  In fact, Tang San’s Eight Spider Lances were constantly evolving along with Tang San’s strength rising. Whether it was at the time of the two great immortal herbs Infernal Precious Apricot and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, or later when Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass awoke to Blue Silver Emperor, both made it constantly evolve.

  Along with Tang San’s Mysterious Heaven Skill advancing, also the progress of spirit power, the Eight Spider Lances once again passed many kinds of evolution. The degree of its own durability had long since surpassed even that of the Man Faced Demon Spider’s own spider legs. Especially when it still contained the ice and fire attributes.

  When Tang San and Xiao Wu were knocked flying, this Man Faced Demon Spider couldn’t pursue. Because on the ground, throngs of blue silver grass was already rigidly tying it down. And those four spider legs that collided with Tang San before were already showing red and blue colored light, just swiftly spreading along its leg towards its body.

  That was the hybrid ice and fire poison. It could mutually counteract with the Man Faced Demon Spider’s poison, but this attribute specific to Tang San wasn’t something the Man Faced Demon Spider could easily eliminate. Fortunately it had also hit his legs, so the spreading speed was slow.

  The Man Faced Demon Spider’s mouth issued an extremely sharp hissing sound, its enormous body struggling forcefully, relying on unreasoning strength to finally tear open the blue silver grass surrounding it. But it didn’t pursue Tang San and Xiao Wu again, clearly it knew the difficulty. A portion of black energy circulated within its body, resisting the spread of the red and blue colors, swiftly shooting out and disappearing in the forest.

  The Man Faced Demon Spider was scared off by Tang San’s ice and fire poison, however, it had still brought them an enormous disaster.

  To Spirit Sages, five hundred meters wasn’t a particularly large distance. Even without agility attack type Spirit Sages, they could still catch up extremely quickly.

  Tang San and Xiao Wu had lost a lot of time before when they joined hands to kill four agility attack type Spirit Sages, and now that they were hindered by this Man Faced Demon Spider, the enemies behind them were already catching up.

  Tang San couldn’t help inwardly thinking of the words ‘men plans are unequal to the plans of Heaven’.

  Clear Sky Hammer replaced Blue Silver Emperor and, with a loud explosion, smashed away the attack of that remaining agility attack type Spirit Master. Tang San managed with difficulty to balance his body after being blasted flying by the Man Faced Demon Spider, but his heart was already miserable.

  Whole body burning with raging flames, Yan had brought eight non-agility attack type Spirit Sages to firmly surround him and Xiao Wu. All their killing intent was targeting them.

  With difficulty managing to use the Clear Sky Hammer to force that surviving agility attack type Spirit Sage to retreat, Tang San was also injured again, once again spitting blood.

  If not for his extremely durable body, after constantly confronting attacks surpassing his strength in this way, perhaps he would long since have been unable to stand.

  Even though his recovery speed had become exceptional after opening up the eight extraordinary meridians, even greater speed still needed time. Starting from when he had launched his surprise attack on Xie Yue, where did he have even a bit of time to catch his breath?

  “Run! Why aren’t you running?”

  Yan glared venomously at Tang San’s face. From the Blue Silver Emperor he wielded as well as the hidden weapons, he naturally recognized him. But it was because of this that he loathed Tang San even more.

  Five years had passed, and the youngster that gave him such humiliation back then had already turned into a youth, and the spirit power gap had moreover unexpectedly pulled close a lot.

  Even though there was still a gap between Yan’s strength and the surrounding Spirit Hall experts, because of his status from the Golden Generation, right now he was instead the leader of these people.

  In the chase, Yan had seen scenes to shock the eye. One after another, four agility attack type Spirit Sages had died in Tang San and Xiao Wu’s hands.

  In fact, those were four Spirit Sages! And in order to chase Tang San’s pair they had even used Spirit Avatar. But it was still difficult for them to escape death. Right now two of them had even turned to pus water, not leaving a corpse.

  Towards Tang San, Yan’s heart held a fear so profound it was even jealousy. From childhood, cultivating in the most sublime palace of Spirit Masters, he had always been an outstanding member of the young generation, only Xie Yue and Hu Liena could compare to him. But, in a few short years, this youth in front of him had given him a feeling that it was difficult to even see his back.

  Further adding the feelings Hu Liena showed for Tang San before, right now Yan’s regard for Tang San could only be described as hating him to the bone. Surrounding them with great difficulty, Yan secretly swore that, no matter what, he would destroy Tang San here today.

  “Since you want to deliver your funerary mats, why would I still want to run?”

  Tang San said indifferently. Right now, he had already thrown off the despair of being stopped by the Man Faced Demon Spider. Even if there was only a slim chance, he still wouldn’t give it up.

  While speaking with Yan, he did his utmost to urge the Mysterious Heaven Skill within him to recover faster.

  The remaining nine Spirit Sages all secretly felt their hearts go cold as they heard Tang San’s words, even though they were now only confronting a less than sixtieth rank opponent, they still didn’t feel a bit relaxed.

  Of twenty Spirit Sages, only nine remained that could properly stand here. If someone had told them this one Spirit King could accomplish this before, they wouldn’t have believed it. But the facts appeared before them, and Tang San’s proud and straight backed figure caused an incorporeal pressure in their hearts.

  They understood clearly that Tang San no longer had any possibility to escape, but who wanted to go make that funerary mat? He had already killed so many, and pulling a couple with him into death wasn’t anything worth surprise. Thus, what these Spirit Sages thought of first of all was their own defense, defensive abilities appearing around them one by one.

  Xiao Wu was only half a head shorter than Tang San, but now with her feet on the ground, she still leaned a
gainst Tang San’s chest. She basically didn’t look at those enemies surrounding them, completely nestling into Tang San’s embrace, just like she wanted to completely merge into his body.

  The atmosphere was so heavy it seemed you might wring water from it. Even though Tang San was calm on the surface, Mysterious Heaven Skill was circulating in a close to mad manner within his body. When he could live, nobody wanted to die, especially when he still held his beloved Xiao Wu. Even if the surrounding enemies were excessively powerful, Tang San would anyhow or any way go through this final fight, he wouldn’t give up even a shred of possibility.

  Right now Tang San’s body showed the level of its endurance. Previously injured several times, especially suffering formidable shock, he still didn’t suffer any substantial injuries. Passing the battering of the waterfall, the baptism of the two great immortal treasure herbs, and still the tempering of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and the awakening of the Blue Silver Emperor, further adding the boost of the three great spirit bones, the current Tang San was an existence like a fortress, even without using spirit power protection.

  Left hand stretching out, the Clear Sky Hammer appeared out of nowhere in his grasp, the lower four Eight Spider Lances sticking into the ground, the blue silver grass surrounding Tang San began to grow with extremely astonishing speed under the effect of the Blue Silver Domain.

  “Do it!”

  Yan abruptly shouted.

  Just at the same time as Yan spoke up, the first to move was nevertheless Tang San. The frantically growing blue silver grass under his feet suddenly shot up like a spring, Eight Spider Lances simultaneously springing up. Under the effect of the two forces, Tang San pulled Xiao Wu close and shot into the air like an artillery shell.

  The two were completely targeted by the nine opponents, but in the split second they shot up, the Clear Sky Hammer in Tang San’s hand abruptly swung towards the sky, rich white light soaring up like needles, ice cold, cruel, thick, bitter, the tremendous killing intent was so rich it was practically tangible, unexpectedly forcibly breaking the lock of the nine spirit hall experts, and the two were sent flying into the air like that.

  There was no door into the ground, all directions were sealed, the only route remaining was the sky. With Tang San’s intelligence, even though time was scarce and the Man Faced Demon Spider had forced them into an impasse, it was still only a moment’s work for him to find the most probable escape route.

  Chapter 161: Narrow Escape

  Among the opponents, all the Spirit Masters that could fly were agility attack types, and four out of five of those were gone, at most only one Spirit Master could fly. The attack range of Spirit Masters was limited, as long as they could escape into the air, he and Xiao Wu very possibly might escape the encirclement.

  The Deathgod Domain adhered to the Clear Sky Hammer, and erupting at this moment, cooperating with the aggression of the Clear Sky Hammer, one move broke the opponents’ targeting. At the same time, under the influence of the Deathgod Domain, Tang San’s fighting spirit once again rose to the peak, and the pursuing opponents would also suffer the influence of the domain.

  At this moment, all of Tang San’s potential burst forth. He knew that what was most dangerous to him right now was when they were still within fifty meters from the ground after the leap. At this range, he would inevitably have to endure the collective attacks of the opponents. If he couldn’t endure, then, that was his and Xiao Wu’s time of death.

  Therefore, in the split second he leapt, he grabbed Xiao Wu under her arms and fiercely threw her up. No matter what attacks he endured, he would never let Xiao Wu endure them with him.

  The Spirit Sages naturally reacted very quickly. Even if Tang San used all his strength it was still impossible to instantly separate from their attack range, let alone when he briefly stalled after throwing Xiao Wu . The powerful pushing force born from the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone sent him chasing after Xiao Wu in the air. Simultaneously Tang San forcefully blasted downward with both hands holding the hammer.

  At this moment, he used practically all the strength he could muster.

  Eight Spirit Sages plus one Yan, how could they let Tang San and Xiao Wu easily escape while surrounding them? Their auras suddenly locking on, naturally led to them wildly attacking.

  That single remaining agility attack type spirit master had already flown up high, charging from the side. Of other eight, eight spirit abilities erupted simultaneously.

  So many had died from Spirit Hall this time, if Tang San escaped, their guilt would be difficult to escape. Further adding the terrifying feeling Tang San gave them, now they even more went all out. In a moment, the core of everyone’s attacks focused on Tang San. Moreover, besides Yan whose strength wasn’t enough, they were all using Spirit Avatar.

  Spirit Avatar undoubtedly enormously increased spirit power consumption, but at the same time it also increased the Spirit Sages’ strength to the limit. At this level, their attack patterns instead became simple. Seven Spirit Sages simultaneously attacked upwards, their concentrated attack power all being their purest spirit power attacks.

  But even though the attack methods were the same, they each had different spirits. The spirit power ripples of the attacks would naturally differ a bit. Some were overbearing, some gentle, some surreptitious, and some ice cold or red hot. In an instant, seven extremely powerful spirit powers simultaneously attacked upwards, directly at Tang San.

  These seven remaining Spirit Sages were all power attack types. Their most formidable feature was attack. With the force of seven such focused Spirit Avatars attacking one opponent, even if a Title Douluo could resist, it still wouldn’t be so easy. Let alone the already considerably exhausted Tang San.

  “No—— Ge——”

  Xiao Wu’s calm was finally broken. The instant she was thrown into the air by Tang San, she already sensed things were unreassuring. Watching herself instantly becoming distant from Tang San, she was unable to do anything. She could only watch those countless dazzling lights engulf Tang San.

  Tang San naturally knew Xiao Wu’s character, so when he threw her, he had already pinched her numbing acupuncture point, making her unable to use Teleportation to return to support him.

  Confronting the attacks below, right now Tang San became exceptionally calm. Even the Deathgod Domain was unable to influence his present mood.

  The Deathgod and Blue Silver Domains simultaneously opened up to the greatest degree, intense white light releasing, weakening the strength of these Spirit Sages as far as possible. At the same time, the Clear Sky Hammer blasted out and withdrew, Blue Silver Emperor madly surging out.

  Tang San grabbed his knees with both hands, curling his body into a ball, the Eight Spider Lances on his back folding, like a shield behind him. The madly surging out Blue Silver Emperor swiftly formed a large cocoon around him, and his entire body flickered with blue golden luster.

  Tang San’s reaction speed could be said to be at the peak. In front of a mortal threat, he finally broke through. The spirit power within his body abruptly sharply increased. Breaking through the bottleneck between the fifty ninth and sixtieth ranks in one move. This abruptly increasing spirit power undoubtedly added weight to his side of the balance.

  Hong, the opponents’ attack first came into contact with that Clear Sky Hammer attack.

  Without a doubt, the Clear Sky Hammer was one of the most formidable spirits in the present world. However, Tang San’s Clear Sky Hammer still wasn’t powerful enough. Without even one spirit ring, further adding his present spirit power level, it basically wasn’t enough to display the Clear Sky Hammer’s true strength. In the instant of contact, it was immediately smashed by the Spriti Sage’s powerful attack.

  Tang San never thought to use that Clear Sky Hammer attack to block the enemy attack, what he wanted was leverage.

  Indeed, before those seven lights swallowed his body, the collision of the Clear Sky Hammer bombardment and the opponents’ cau
sed an opposite force, and he was once again pushed higher up.

  The more distant the attack, the more the attack power would weaken. Just at this moment, even if he could only weaken the enemy attack just a little, to Tang San, the odds of survival would also increase somewhat.

  Hong——

  Just the first Spirit Avatar spirit power attack, and the Blue Silver Emperor surrounding Tang San was already completely shattered. The attack power the Spirit Avatar could raise, no matter how, it was still beyond what he could resist at this level.

  “Don’t——”

  In the air, Xiao Wu, watching Tang San be violently bombarded just like a small boat in a great wave, teardrops uncontrollably flowed from her eyes. But, that moment Tang San threw her away, he had used the majority of his spirit power on her, and she was still flying towards the sky.

  Hong——

  The second attack fell on the Eight Spider Lances Tang San had meticulously arranged behind his back. With an ear piercing rupturing sound, the Eight Spider Lances cracked all over, and Tang San was also unable to continue curling up, a thick blood mist spurting from his mouth, turning the air a faint red.

  Hong——

  The third attack fell on Tang San’s back almost immediately after the second. This time, even the Eight Spider Lances that had passed through countless baptisms, was also finally unable to endure. Instantly shattering. Turning into countless blue and gold fragments whirling in the air. Another mouthful of blood mist spurted from Tang San’s mouth. His face had already become white as a sheet of paper.

  At this moment, there were no more forces that could protect him. Under the combined Spirit Avatar eruption of the seven Spirit Sages standing on the blue silver grass on the ground, it was impossible for even close combat to achieve anything. And Tang San himself, all he could accomplish was to draw out the Clear Sky Hammer.
