Chapter 689: Chapter 509: No Remains Left
Lin Feng was hanging in mid-air by a pitch-black, spear-like spider leg, which had pierced through his left chest.
Everything happened so suddenly that some people still looked dazed, as if they hadn’t truly reacted.
This assassin deceived everyone.
Moreover, the target of the assassination was He Jun.
Someone in Lin Feng’s team who was very low-key, whose talent and strength were very ordinary, and not remarkable at all.
If it weren’t for Lin Feng’s timely reaction and the Divine Level Soul Skill Stand, He Jun would have been dead by now.
You should know that the spider leg was aimed right at He Jun’s head.
"Ah!"
Lin Feng let out a low growl, blood veins filled his eyes as he tried to grasp the spider leg piercing out of his chest, but appeared somewhat weak and powerless.
Meanwhile, as the spider leg pierced through Lin Feng’s heart, it didn’t slow down; the scorpion tail swung again, aiming for his head.
The barbs tore brutally into his heart and flesh; Lin Feng could even feel the muscles inside his body being ripped apart. The excruciating pain made him uncontrollably twitch. If it weren’t for the ’Green Hat’ constantly releasing massive amounts of Life Energy overhead, he probably couldn’t hold on any longer.
He wanted to release the Illusion Soul Skill, but whether due to the pain or poisoning, his mind was exceptionally drowsy.
He couldn’t concentrate, and the release of the Soul Skill failed.
Seeing the sharp spider leg appear in front of him, he was powerless.
"Get lost!"
With a thunderous roar, Ye Xing enveloped in crimson steam, charged toward Lin Feng like a giant beast.
At this moment, a figure dashed swiftly ahead. Just before the spider leg was about to pierce through Lin Feng’s head, without any visible movement, a blue light flashed by.
The spider leg was cut off, and a spray of yellow-green liquid burst out.
"Hmph..."
As the spider leg got severed, a muffled groan came from underground.
Without the support of the spider leg, Lin Feng fell from mid-air, and was caught by Yun Tianqi, where Ye Xing also appeared beside. He quickly grabbed the remaining half of the spider leg.
He pulled hard, feeling the resistance from underground, and struggled to prevent it from escaping.
"Bing, quick!"
After catching Lin Feng, Yun Tianqi had no intention of helping Ye Xing, and immediately shot away, approaching Bing, with a slightly anxious voice.
At this time, Lin Feng’s chest still had a spider leg protruding, his gaze was already a bit unfocused, and his neck area was dark purple, spreading continually toward his face.
Ye Xing firmly grasped the half-cut spider leg with both hands. To prevent slipping, he neither released a Soul Skill nor used Spiritual Power Possession, allowing the dense barbs to sink into his flesh.
His already exaggerated arm muscles swelled another size, as if a snake was hidden beneath his skin.
"Get out here, you mongrel."
Ye Xing cursed at the ground.
The previous groan had already exposed the identity of the enemy as either human or belonging to the Alien Race. It’s very difficult for Aliens to hide in a city; the ubiquitous surveillance would leave them nowhere to hide.
Alien experts might appear in the wild, but it’s nearly impossible for them to hide in a human city.
At this moment, Zhouyun City was full of strong warriors, with over fifty Kings. No Alien expert would come courting death.
So, the likelihood of being human is greater.
Just as they feared, demon beasts weren’t the scariest. Even if they were defeated, they could retreat.
The truly terrifying ones were enemies hidden in the dark.
It makes Ye Xing far more furious when humans act this way compared to demon beasts and Aliens.
"Be careful."
With an exclamation, just as Ye Xing pulled, a black spike suddenly shot up from the soil in front of him, thrusting straight at Ye Xing’s head.
"Get out!"
With a roar, Ye Xing’s expression twisted slightly. It seemed as if he hadn’t realized the danger, pulling fiercely regardless.
Along with flying debris, out from beneath him emerged a pitch-black creature with eight spider legs. In an instant, Ye Xing swung it out vigorously after pulling it free.
Ye Xing wanted to brutally smash it against the ground, turning it into a meat patty, but by doing so, he would surely have his own head pierced.
"Damn it, it really is a human."
Ye Xing looked at the thing he pulled out, his face full of ferocity and killing intent.
Indeed, it was a human.
The appearance was unclear; it could only be judged that it was a man.
The man’s face and chest were mostly covered with black shells, and eight spear-like spider legs extended from his waist and abdomen. Each spider leg was three or four meters long, resembling spears, allowing him to stand in mid-air.
The spider legs were covered with dense, barb-like hair.
For those with trypophobia, this would be a disaster.
Among the eight spider legs, one was cut off, only a third remaining, but this did not affect the man’s balance.
He was crouching, the spider legs subtly swaying, his body undulating as if with elasticity.
"It’s the assassin, Ghost Eight, with Upper Rank Spirit King power who has refined the Eight Ghosts Spider. The talent skill is also Spider Silk, though his Demon Spirit is cultivated towards reinforcing the eight spider legs, leaning towards speed and agility. Its poison is also very potent, capable of being released through the pores on the spider legs."
Huang Tianze’s eyes were serious, loudly reminding everyone.
There are hundreds of known spider-type Demon Spirits; the reflection of Demon Spirits in possession looks very similar, generally impossible for ordinary people to differentiate.
However, also having refined a spider-type Demon Spirit, Huang Tianze was familiar with these Demon Spirits and instantly recognized what Demon Spirit the person before him had refined.
Though the man’s Demon Spirit level wasn’t comparable to his Netherworld Demon Spider, the strength of this Ghost Eight was obviously superior to his.
Superior to everyone present.
Spirit King expert!
Not many have Spirit King power and refined the Eight Ghosts Spider, the most famous being the Ghost Eight, ranked 37th on the assassin list.
