Zhao Youji tightly shut his mouth, forcing back the blood. He straightened up, patted his chest with feigned composure, and said expressionlessly, "Very good, you've passed."

Qian San immediately retracted all the liquid metal into his body. Although he was pale and panting heavily, he still managed a bright smile and slightly clasped his hands in a fist salute:

"Teacher Zhao, you flatter me."

The entire room fell silent.

Afterwards, Dai Zhuqing, Yu Rongrong, and the others displayed a variety of emotions. But regardless, they had witnessed a true monster today.

【Gateway】

Starry Sky Forest

Deep within a secluded canyon, seven figures sat cross-legged in silence. The two at the head were Qian Xunji and Qian Daoliu, both wearing masks. Behind them stood a line of powerful figures from the Hall of Worship, including Golden Crocodile Douluo, Azure Phoenix Douluo, and Light Feather Douluo. Even though they deliberately concealed their auras, the pressure emanating from these Super Douluo still caused low-level soul beasts within a radius of several miles to flee.

A white streak of light silently swept through the forest, transforming into Huang Tian, ​​clad in white. A hint of solemnity crossed her exquisite face as she approached Qian Xunji.

"Have you figured it out?" Qian Xunji opened her eyes.

Huang Tian nodded, a hint of apprehension in his silver eyes:

"I only sensed it very subtly, and there was indeed a black dragon lurking deep in the Lake of Life. Its bloodline aura was the same as mine, and its cultivation was also about the same as mine, both over 800,000 years old. In order to avoid being detected by it in advance, I did not continue to probe further."

"Well done, that's enough."

"What do you plan to do next?" Huang Tian looked at the group of powerful humans around him. "Just charge in? The Lake of Life is the stronghold of soul beasts. Even if you have the numbers, if you force it to detonate itself, it will probably result in mutual destruction."

"A direct confrontation is the act of a reckless fool; we're here to discuss strategy." Qian Xunji slowly stood up, his gaze fixed on the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Wait patiently here for a few days. After a few days, the Titan Ape in this forest will leave the Lake of Life. That will be the perfect time for us to make our move."

Qian Xunji looked around and gave a detailed tactical plan to everyone in the sacrificial hall and Huang Tian:

"Once the Titan Ape leaves, I'll leave for a moment to snatch an important little trinket. When I return, the real show will begin."

He stared directly at the heavens, "Once the plan begins, I will have everyone in the Hall of Offerings unleash their full power and relentlessly pursue you. You don't need to do anything else; simply release all your eight hundred thousand years of bloodline and cultivation aura, and feign a disheveled escape towards the Lake of Life!"

Huang Tian frowned slightly, as if realizing something: "You want to use me as bait?"

"Not bad." Qian Xunji nodded.

"As the Beast God of the Star Dou Great Forest, if Di Tian suddenly senses a fellow dragon of equal cultivation being hunted by a powerful human, his pride and sense of responsibility as a king would absolutely prevent him from ignoring it! He will definitely break through the water and come to your aid!"

"When he confronts us, focusing all his attention on us powerful humans..." Qian Xunji's eyes flashed with killing intent.

"Heavenly Emperor, that's your chance to strike! At the most lethal distance, deliver a fatal blow!"

Huang Tian fell into a long silence. The pride of the dragon race made her instinctively repulsed by this sneak attack, but when she recalled her ultimate purpose for coming here—to devour Di Tian, ​​and the pressure from the God Realm, she bit her lower lip hard, and a trace of blood spread in her mouth.

"...Fine, I agree." Huang Tian finally uttered these words coldly.

For the next few days, the group lurked in the canyon like ghosts until late at night on the seventh day.

Roar--

A deafening roar echoed from the edge of the forest, followed by a violent tremor of the earth. It was the roar of Erming, the 100,000-year-old Titan Giant Ape!

"They've arrived." A glint of fervor flashed in Qian Xunji's eyes.

"Xiao Wu has been captured. Please wait here, I'll be right back!"

Before he finished speaking, Qian Xunji's figure had already transformed into a streak of light and completely disappeared into the night.

……

A clearing on the outskirts of the Starry Sky Forest.

The place was a mess. Tang San was sitting cross-legged on the ground, trembling violently. In front of him was the corpse of a human-faced demon spider.

Tang San's face was ashen, and his clothes were soaked with sweat, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered. A purple spirit ring was pulsating around his body, but what was most noticeable were the eight bulges that rose high on his back!

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!—"

Accompanied by a chilling sound of flesh tearing apart, eight long, purplish-black spider legs, gleaming with a cold, eerie light, burst forth from Tang San's back!

External Soul Bone, Eight Spider Lances!

Although Tang San was in extreme pain, an undisguised ecstatic gleam flashed in his eyes. He could feel the potent poison and power contained within those eight spider legs. Even if he didn't know what it was, this was definitely an opportunity surpassing ordinary spirit rings; with it, his strength would surely increase!

However, just as Tang San was pondering this gain, in a completely unguarded moment!

boom--

A terrifying pressure belonging to a level 99 peerless Douluo descended from the sky without warning and slammed heavily onto Tang San!

Tang San was pinned to the ground, unable to move even a finger, and fear gripped his heart instantly.

A tall, slender figure dressed in a gray robe and wearing a silver mask descended upon Tang San like the Grim Reaper.

Qian Xunji looked down at Tang San, who was struggling on the ground like an ant, and then glanced at the eight sharp and ferocious purplish-black spider legs on his back. A cold laugh came from behind his mask.

"Such a top-grade external soul bone is wasted on a weed like you. Only my precious son is worthy of it. It seems this thing is destined for me."

"You... what do you want to do..." Tang San's eyes were bloodshot, he was panting heavily, and an unprecedented sense of crisis rose in his heart.

Without a word, Qian Xunji slowly extended his hands, which were enveloped in golden soul power. He didn't use any weapons, but instead used his iron-like hands to firmly grasp the roots of the eight spider legs on Tang San's back!

"No!!!" Tang San seemed to realize something and let out a scream.

"Rip—!"

A cruel scene unfolded! Qian Xunji ruthlessly exerted his strength, and with a tooth-grinding sound of bones shattering and muscles tearing, the Eight Spider Lances that had just fused with Tang San's spine were forcibly pulled out of his flesh by Qian Xunji!

"Aaaaaaahh ...
