Douluo: Start by taking control of the Holy Spirit Church Saint

Chapter 510: Human-Faced Spider Queen
"Are you planning to imitate the scent of this human-faced demon spider to attract the attention of demon spiders of the opposite sex?"

Hearing Huo Yuhao’s groundbreaking idea, even Xiong Jun was shocked.

"It's a pity that this guy is a male." Bibi Dong glanced at the human-faced demon spider lying on the ground, not knowing whether it was alive or dead, and said with regret.

“This is indeed a problem…” Huo Yuhao stroked his chin and turned his gaze to Xiong Jun: “Old Bear, do you know the difference between male and female human-faced demon spiders? Let me see if I can simulate a female 90,000-year-old human-faced demon spider.”

Xiong Jun finally knew what the boy was going to do, and just laughed: "Perhaps you don't know that if there is a human-faced Demon Spider King, it must be a female spider."

“Oh?” Huo Yuhao really had never understood the characteristics of this race, and currently no one on the mainland had the courage to study the reproduction of the human-faced demon spiders. “What did you get this from? Could it be that the human-faced demon spiders are a feminist society?”

The bear king naturally didn't understand what he meant by women's rights, but he still patiently explained: "The ferocious nature of the human-faced demon spider race is actually determined from birth..."

Bibi Dong couldn't help but prick up her ears out of curiosity and listen carefully.

"The reproduction of human-faced demon spiders is actually that male demon spiders release their own auras to attract female demon spiders that are stronger and older than themselves, and the two begin to reproduce. During the reproduction process of female demon spiders, because they cannot move, they usually devour the male demon spiders after mating to replenish their own vitality."

The corner of Huo Yuhao’s mouth twitched. This process sounded quite cruel. No wonder this kind of soul beast was so rare.

Seeing the expressions of the two, Xiong Jun continued, "Do you think this is the end? There is something even more exciting to come. After the little spiders were born, because this race was rejected by all the major soul beast tribes, they had to rely on their mothers before they grew up to be a hundred years old, and constantly gnawed the flesh and blood of the female demon spiders to make themselves grow quickly."

"If the female demon spider is lucky, she can replenish her own deficiency by hunting other soul beasts, or she can let her children directly absorb nutrients from the prey. This is why most human-faced demon spiders are female and more ferocious. If they don't do this, they will be devoured by their own children first."

"In most cases, most of the surviving spiders will choose the time when their mother is at her weakest and brutally kill her, quickly completing the final step of transformation."

Huo Yuhao was terrified when he heard this. He immediately thought of something and asked, “Then, wouldn’t it mean that all the older demon spiders died because of breeding?”

Bibi Dong also thought of this and felt a little lost.

"Haha, if they were just like this, I, old bear, would not necessarily forbid these guys to survive. After all, they are just doing this to reproduce. It is understandable..." said the Bear King with a sneer.

"Could it be..." Bibi Dong seemed to have guessed something and her expression changed drastically.

"Yes, if the young demon spiders improve themselves by gnawing on the mother's flesh and blood, then the female demon spiders may be able to complete themselves by devouring the children after transformation." When Xiong Jun thought of the behavior of this race, his face turned completely cold. "Compared to devouring soul beasts of other races, it is easier to directly devour people of the same lineage as yourself to improve yourself."

Huo Yuhao was silent. In the world of soul beasts, the survival of the fittest is a law of natural selection. This law is also true even in many places where people are cold-hearted. However, the human-faced demon spiders are much worse than this law of survival.

As the saying goes, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but this saying is useless when it comes to the human-faced demon spider clan.

The higher the level of the human-faced demon spider, the more brutal and vicious its character will be. No wonder when Sea God Tang San was conquering the continent, the human faces on the lower abdomen of the human-faced demon spiders he encountered were all ferocious women.

“So, you want me to imitate this guy’s aura and attract female demon spiders with higher cultivation levels.” Huo Yuhao finally understood what Xiong Jun meant. In this case, they were lucky to encounter this ordinary ten-thousand-year-old human-faced demon spider.

By the way, how could this guy resist the urge to mate with a female demon spider? Huo Yuhao immediately gave the male spider a thumbs up in his heart.

Without further ado, Huo Yuhao began to simulate the aura of the human-faced demon spider after feeling it for a while. However, this time he planned to simulate a 90,000-year-old male human-faced demon spider.

“You kid are planning to lure a hundred thousand year old human-faced demon spider king, right?” The Bear King guessed Huo Yuhao’s little thoughts, but even he had never seen a hundred thousand year old human-faced demon spider.

"If there really are human-faced demon spiders of the hundred thousand year level in the Star Dou Great Forest, their strength must be completely different from that of ordinary ten thousand year old demon spiders. You'd better be careful." Bibi Dong warned.

“Yes.” Huo Yuhao nodded. The strength of a 100,000-year-old human-faced demon spider king could definitely be comparable to the lower-ranked ferocious beasts like the Demon Queen and the Scarlet King. Ordinary human Titled Douluo or even Super Douluo would not be its opponent at all.

"I'm starting."

Huo Yuhao’s second soul ring lit up, and an aura unique to the human-faced demon spider suddenly spread in all directions.

Mental simulation! In this life, the reason why Huo Yuhao had to choose the four great skills and simulated soul skills of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was because these abilities were too amazing. Even in the Ultimate Douluo period, the rotten salted fish relied on the simulated transformation ability of the treasure-hunting beast to achieve many achievements that the world could hardly imagine.

The snobbish treasure-hunting beasts would only follow the Dragon God or the Gold and Silver Dragon Kings, so Huo Yuhao naturally gave up the idea of ​​looking for that little unique thing to replace his second soul skill at the beginning.

As soon as the breath of the 90,000-year-old human-faced demon spider came out, the low-level soul beasts around it were immediately scared and fled in all directions. It was the nightmare of small soul beasts, a life-devouring existence, the object of hatred of all soul beasts, and a so-called terrifying evil killer.

Huo Yuhao actually had no idea what was going on, he just hoped that there really was a human-faced demon spider that could survive for 100,000 years...

On the other side, underground competition.

Looking at the soul guide in his hand made of the best materials used by Gao Lou, Xiao Hongchen couldn't help but nod secretly.

The production method of Gaolou is indeed different from that of an orthodox soul guide, especially in the details of some techniques, which obviously have their own unique methods. If he can research the production of soul guides to this extent just by trial and error, this guy is definitely worthy of the word genius!

After making a shell, Gao Dalou suddenly raised his head and looked at Xiao Hongchen who was thinking about something across from him. He said with a smile: "Brother, don't look at me. You definitely can't tell what I'm doing. For a person like me who is so unsophisticated, even the way we make the core array is different from that of ordinary soul masters."

Xiao Hongchen was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that his continuous gaze made the tall building soul guide think that he was observing his production and then targeted him. Then he smiled slightly, without any explanation, stopped staring at the other party, and started making his own soul guide.

He still used the standard carving knife on the soul guide production table to start carving the core array. Compared with the heavy and simple high-rise buildings, as the grandson of Jing Hongchen, his carving can definitely be described as precise and fast.

The carving knife in Xiao Hongchen's hand seemed to come alive, constantly beating at his fingertips. Every cut was extremely precise. If some teachers from the Soul Instructor Academy were to see it, they would definitely think that he was making a textbook-level work. Metal shavings flew, and a complex core array gradually took shape in his carving. Xiao Hongchen's carvings did not take too long. With one cut, he often only carved a short line, unlike a tall building where one cut would change three times. However, his movements were too fast. Often, in the blink of an eye, he had already cut several times, and the connection between each cut was almost the same as if it had been cut by one cut.

You must know that the current Xiao Hongchen is a seventh-level soul mentor personally recognized by Kong Deming!

When Gao Dalou finally finished making the shell in his hand and looked up at Xiao Hongchen again, he instantly fell into a daze.

What did he see? What he saw were afterimages dancing on Xiao Hongchen's fingertips. He couldn't see what he was doing at all. Only tiny metal fragments kept spilling out and then evenly spread beside him.

This, making the core array so quickly, isn't he afraid of making mistakes? This was the first thought in Gao Dalou's mind.

He subconsciously glanced at Xiao Hongchen's eyes. Precisely because he was a self-taught person, his understanding of many aspects of soul guide making was more sensitive than those soul guides who graduated from regular colleges.

For a soul engineer, eyes are extremely important, and one can often tell a lot from the other person's eyes.

Gao Dalou's face was suddenly filled with bitterness. It was only the first round and he had already encountered such a strong opponent. It seemed very difficult to defeat him!
At this time, although there was a soundproof shield and the outside sounds could not be transmitted to the competition stage, the high-level gamblers who came to watch the game still kept quiet tacitly and turned their eyes to the objects they bet on.

Gambling is also a science, and pre-match research is particularly important. They know which soul masters have characteristics and which soul masters may be of higher levels.

For a soul guide like Gao Dalou who is not good-looking, some people have already focused their attention on him. What is more eye-catching than Xiao Hongchen is not because of how powerful Gao Dalou is, but because of the carving knife in his hand.

The carving knife in Gao Dalou's hand is indeed a family heirloom, and it has a name on the carving knife list. It is a real carving knife on the list.

Although the family was impoverished, Gao Dalou was secretly protected by some senior soul masters who were related to the family, which was how he could keep the carving knife from being coveted. However, those who secretly helped him did not want him to become a powerful soul master, so the help stopped there.

It is precisely because of the existence of that carving knife that the odds for today's battle between Gao Dalou and Xiao Hongchen are 1 to 2.3 for Gao Dalou and 1 to 1.2 for Xiao Hongchen. Just from the odds, one can see the gamblers' inner comparison of the strength of both sides.

Of course, even with this odds, it was still because someone placed a heavy bet on Xiao Hongchen before the game started, otherwise his odds would be even lower. But no one knew that the person who placed the heavy bet was himself.

A faint light flickered, and a trace of solemnity appeared on Xiao Hongchen's face. The carving knife in his hand finally stopped, and a spherical core magic circle as big as a fist had taken shape in front of him.

He could actually use his martial soul to control the metal to complete this step, but that would undoubtedly expose his identity immediately. After all, Xiao Hongchen's three-legged golden toad is known as one of the martial souls most suitable for soul masters.

The entire core magic circle in his hand was hollow, and it was simply a fine work of art. It seemed as if it was endowed with life, emitting a faint light, and a very dangerous aura was constantly being released from it, and this was before soul power was injected into it.

Unlike the soul guide made by Gao Dalou, which has three core magic arrays, the one made by Xiao Hongchen only has this one core magic array.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Hongchen started making other accessories, and the production speed was still very fast.

Similarly, the tall building was still busy doing some final assembly and debugging work. In fact, even if he wanted to see Xiao Hongchen's production, he couldn't see it clearly.

Perhaps it was because Xiao Hongchen had wasted a lot of time in the previous part, so he couldn't stop making it now. His movements were so fast, so fast that it was hard to keep up.

How can I see this? My eyes are blurry.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the first one to complete his soul guide was Soul Master No. 96. It took him exactly one hour. He glanced at the other busy soul masters and handed in his work.

The second person to complete it was No. 96's opponent. When No. 96 said he had finished making it, his opponent took a look at the soul guide he had made, and then gave up his work with a look of despair.

The gap was too obvious, and there was no need to continue. After all, what No. 96 had completed was actually a level 5 soul guide!

Most of the soul guides started to make their own soul guides after an hour and a half. This is a competition, not for every soul guide to make their own strongest soul guide. The time is limited, and the best way to make it is to make the strongest soul guide you can make within the limited time.

Gao Dalou was completed a quarter of an hour earlier than Xiao Hongchen, but he was not in a hurry to hand in the work. Instead, he stood opposite and quietly watched Xiao Hongchen, who was moving his hands up and down to make the soul guide.

The scary thing was that the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became. Although he couldn't tell how Xiao Hongchen was made, he still noticed some of the details.

Although he, a man of unconventional origin, made soul guides differently from orthodox soul guides, the difference was mainly in the production techniques.

However, the soul guide made by Xiao Hongchen was something he had never even heard of. What were those circles of metal coils used for? What were those gun barrels of the same length used for? Why did that small metal ball have more than a dozen holes, and why were they evenly arranged in a circle?

What is he doing? This thing doesn't seem to be the core array...

-

At this time, a strange sound attracted Huo Yuhao's attention.

The rustling sound was like someone changing clothes, or the rubbing of leaves. As his alertness increased, Huo Yuhao slowly gathered his mental strength and carefully looked in the direction where the sound came from.

That seems... to be a woman?
She has white hair that is as white as frost and snow, just like the white snow at dawn in winter, pure and mysterious. The silver hair reflects a faint glow in the sun, just like the wrinkles carved on her face by the years, revealing a kind of vicissitudes of beauty.

A pair of willow-shaped eyebrows, just a slight raise can attract the attention of living beings and make people obsessed.

However, her lower body was different from that of an ordinary human, being a gigantic black spider. Her eight long legs moved across the ground with an inhumanly graceful posture, each step light and swift, making it difficult to grasp. The junction between her body and the spider was covered with a layer of black carapace that looked like gauze, which was both hard and strangely flexible.

This can be regarded as the top-level version of the human-faced demon spider, a super version of one hundred thousand years, or it would be more appropriate to call it the Spider Queen.
