Douluo Continent: What do you mean this is the Holy Spirit Cult?

The moment Qi Li sensed the Earth Demon Spider's life force draining away, he immediately went all out, urging the Netherworld Lion beneath him to accelerate and rapidly merge the souls of the two Holy Spirits with his own, but he had not yet activated the Soul Fusion Technique.

As for Ye Lie, Huang Xuan, and the three evil soul masters at the Soul Saint level—the elders of the Holy Spirit Cult branch—they immediately headed towards the location of the Death Spider.

With such a powerful force, they quickly advanced towards the Death Spider, and naturally no other soul beasts tried to stop them along the way.

Because they knew very well that if they tried to stop them with their strength, there would only be one outcome: they would be easily killed.

In reality, it's unlikely that any powerful spirit beasts would appear here to stop them. Both the Cave Spider and the Death Spider have a strong sense of territory and would not tolerate powerful other spirit beasts living in their territory.

Therefore, before their battle even began, they had already eliminated all the other powerful spirit beasts.

Moreover, the closer Qi Li got to the direction of the Death Demon, the more he was impressed by the power of the Death Demon Spider.

The Death Spider's venom left many traces along the way, and its emerald green poison had turned all the life it touched into corpses. Even some plant-type soul beasts had large corrosive wounds.

These plant-type soul beasts live in the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest, and the fact that they have survived to this day indicates that their racial talents are relatively strong, and they also possess a considerable degree of resistance to poison.

However, these resistances to venom are completely negated by the deadly venom of the Death Spider, as if they do not exist at all.

This made him decide that in the upcoming battle, he must be extremely careful and maintain a sufficient distance from the Death Spider.

But just as he was thinking this, he discovered that the emerald green poison around him seemed to have been completely dispelled the moment he got close.

And in his heart, a pink jewel was radiating a beautiful light.

He couldn't help but pull out the pink pearl, the size of a longan, from his heart.

Looking at the precious pearl nurtured by this fragrant and exquisite fairy product, his expression suddenly became somewhat strange.

As expected of a 100,000-year-old plant-type immortal herb soul beast! Even the pearl it nurtured itself could easily destroy the venom of a Death Demon Spider, which was only about three years old and was considered the king of highly poisonous soul beasts.

With this precious pearl, the Death Spider's strength for Qi Li would likely decrease by more than just 30%.

The Death Spider's combat power is inseparable from the enhancement of its venom. Now that the venom has been neutralized, its physical strength is no match for the combined attack of three evil soul masters and the soul fusion technique on its body.

With the added benefit of the precious pearl nurtured by the fragrant and exquisite immortal product, Qi Li accelerated his progress.

Previously, we had to worry about the deadly venom of the Death Spider, but now we don't have to worry about it at all.

They passed through layer after layer of trees, ignoring the nearly dried, emerald-green poisonous substance above.

Qi Li and his group soon arrived at an open space in this territory.

Strictly speaking, it wasn't exactly an open space; the lush trees surrounding it indicated that it should have originally been a dense forest.

But now, under the corrosive influence of the emerald green poison and the emerald green figure of the Death Spider that symbolizes the arrival of death, the forest has been corroded to the point that only a few tree roots remain in place, and it is no exaggeration to call it an empty space.

In the very center of this open space, a Death Spider, about five and a half meters tall and covered in emerald green armor with hard, dagger-like hairs on the outside, was slowly chewing the last leg of the Cave Spider King.

The arrival of Qi Li and his group immediately alerted the king of the spider-like soul beasts with eight eyes on its head. It immediately jumped off the body of the Cave Demon Spider King and onto the open ground to the side.

This Soul Beast King was clearly caught off guard.

Since Qi Li has now completed the Soul Fusion Technique, although he still has a physical form, he is in a soul state. As for the other three evil soul masters and soul saints, there is no need to say more; they are all in a soul state, and none of them can show their aura on the surface.

It was precisely because of their current soul state that they were able to sneak up here so quickly without being discovered by the Death Spider.

When has the Death Spider, who has lived its entire life in the Star Dou Great Forest, ever seen a pure soul?

Although strictly speaking, all Demon Spider Soul Beasts are evil and death-attributed, the Death Demon Spider is not a Soul-Eating Demon Spider, nor can it devour the souls of its prey like the Soul-Eating Demon Spider. This means that when facing the current soul form, its years of survival experience still has a greater impact on it.

However, his survival experience is now of no use.

Qi Li, in his guise as the Fear Dragon Knight, unleashed a torrent of evil fire from the bone dragon beneath him, which surged toward the Cave Demon Spider King.

In just a moment, the air began to fill with the aroma of roasted protein.

A fairly solid black soul ring, nearly ten feet wide, began to condense on the corpse of the Cave Demon Spider King and floated above it.

Although this Cave Demon Spider King possessed extremely vigorous vitality, so much so that even after being poisoned by the Death Demon Spider and having all eight of its legs devoured, it showed no signs of losing its life. However, under the evil fire brought about by Qi Li's Soul Fusion Technique, its life finally came to an end.

Upon witnessing the death of the Cave Spider King, the Death Spider let out a very human-like roar. This roar was not only a physical attack, but also carried an extremely strange mental attack.

Qi Li's weakest member, the Netherworld Lion Beast Soul, readily chose to bypass the attack.

As for the others, even the Fear Dragon Knights, who were weaker overall, did not try to dodge and simply endured the roar.

Although the Death Spider is strong, its strength is at most comparable to some very weak Soul Douluos.

Not to mention that his battle with the Cave Demon Spider King had already consumed a considerable amount of his soul power.

If Qi Li and his group still needed to dodge such an attack, then what they needed to do now was not to kill the Death Spider here, but to turn around and run away.
