Chapter 476
by fanqienovelChapter 476: The Poisonous Spider
In fact, not only did others believe Fang Lie would certainly die, even Young Taoist Yōuhún shared this conviction. He held absolute confidence in his divine skill’s sudden eruption, vast coverage, and crucial imprisoning power – even Wind Tribulation Immortals couldn’t escape the blazing sea of flames.
Combined with the sinister might of Netherworld Ghost Fire launched through ambush, who could withstand this? Core Inner Gate Disciples from major sects would perish instantly, let alone a supposedly weak Fang Lie!
Chuckling triumphantly, Yōuhún mocked, "Fang Lie! Is this your limit? Still acting arrogant? Truly Mo Sect’s greatest fraud! Dare challenge me again after reviving? I’ll make you taste heavenly bliss and hellish torment! Hahaha!"
Yet during his laughter, Yōuhún noticed the crowd’s cheering turning to shock. A voice suddenly boomed above him: "Idiot! I’ll accept rematches anytime. But now – return to rebirth!"
Yōuhún’s soul chilled. Looking up, he saw a crimson spear descending like thunderbolt judgment – the Soulfire Lance. No time remained for evasion. His final scream echoed as the lance obliterated his body into fragments.
Without protective treasures, such point-blank divine skill strikes meant instant annihilation.
The stunned crowd erupted:
"Damnation! How’d Fang Lie appear above Yōuhún?"
"Teleportation? Impossible! Spatial divine skills require Thunder Tribulation mastery! Even geniuses need Wind Tribulation cultivation!"
"Must be spatial treasure! How else could Qi Sea cultivator achieve this?"
"Cheater!" the mob roared.
A green-robed Ghost Realm Sect Elder stormed the arena, divine sense scouring Fang Lie for hidden treasures – finding nothing.
"Did you cheat with teleportation treasure?" he demanded.
"Never!" Fang Lie retorted. "I’d never shame Fang Family rules publicly!"
"Then explain your spatial skill!"
"Why explain?" Fang Lie countered. "Must I report skills? Are spatial techniques banned here?"
"Spatial skills? At Qi Sea realm? Impossible!"
"Your sect’s fools can’t learn it," Fang Lie scoffed. "Doesn’t mean others can’t."
"Lies! Give explanation!"
"Catch me red-handed first!" Fang Lie challenged. "Show proof before thousands! Find none? Then face consequences!"
A watching Thunder Tribulation Immortal interjected: "Normally impossible – unless using spatial beast parts like Void Beast’s Dao Pattern Heavenly Eye."
The crowd buzzed:
"Ah! Ghost Realm Sect used that eye to trap Fang Lie at Chaos Demon City, but he stole their treasure vault! His Twin Eyes of Heaven and Earth prove he absorbed it!"
"The Heavenly Eye grants Void Escape – exactly what he used!"
"Hah! Fang Family’s honor prevents cheating! Ghost Realm Sect fools didn’t recognize their own treasures!"
Amid roaring laughter, the crimson-faced Elder hurled a Seventh-rank top-grade treasure onto the arena and fled, vanishing in shame.
After his first victory, Fang Lie was entitled to rest according to the rules, but he waved his hand dismissively and declared, "Who’s next to die?"
This time, no one rushed forward eagerly like before. The spatial divine skill of teleportation proved too troublesome. The once-confident young talents now hesitated.
Fortunately, a confident beauty emerged gracefully, smiling, "Let this junior sister learn from Senior Brother Fang’s techniques!"
She appeared utterly bewitching, clad in mere wisps of gauze that hinted at her jade-like curves. Many lechers could hardly contain themselves.
Her appearance drew gasps from the crowd.
"That’s the Second Lady of Ten Thousand Poisons Sect – Poisonous Spider! Deadly toxins seep from her pores. Merely standing near her risks death, let alone fighting!"
"Though not ranked among Ten Demonic Sects, Ten Thousand Poisons Sect rivals them. Their secret poison arts remain unrivaled – neither treasures nor divine skills can fully counter their toxins."
"Poisonous Spider’s particularly vicious. She’s killed tens of thousands of cultivators and millions of mortals testing poisons. They say ‘Better provoke Yama than touch the Spider’ – she exterminates entire households of her enemies."
Ignoring the whispers, Poisonous Spider floated onto the Arena, stopping mere hundred paces from Fang Lie. She bowed coquettishly, "Junior sister greets Senior Brother."
Fang Lie narrowed his eyes. "Ten Thousand Poisons Sect? You closed distance to poison me."
Her smile faltered briefly before she giggled, "Senior Brother misunderstands! I simply wanted clearer view of your heroic bearing~" She drifted closer, mimicking infatuation.
"Oh?" Fang Lie smirked, "I never knew my charm worked on spiders." His roving eyes shamelessly traced her exposed flesh like common lecher.
Onlookers groaned. "Is he blind to her act?"
"Youth’s hormones cloud judgment."
"Let him play loverboy – soon he’ll beg when her toxins take hold!"
Seizing her chance, Poisonous Spider closed until their breaths mingled. "Do I please you, Senior Brother?"
"Exquisitely."
"Really?" Her sweet mask shattered into venomous grin. "Then die for me!"
Hands weaving secret technique, she chanted: "All Poisons Converge – Detonate!"
Fang Lie’s flesh bubbled grotesquely, pus oozing from bursting blisters. Hair sloughed off as he collapsed, barely breathing.
Poisonous Spider crowed, "So this is the mighty Fang Lie? Toppled by mere trick!"
The ruin that was Fang Lie grinned horrifically. "Think I’d desire filth like you? I wanted you close."
WHOOSH! Seven-colored flames erupted around him – Nirvana fire devouring impurities.
Poisonous Spider shrieked, fleeing too late. Flaming Arm shot through inferno, seizing her shoulder. Fang Lie’s merciless voice pierced the blaze:
"Fool! My inheritance purges all corruption. What moron drenched in poison dares approach Nirvana fire?"
