Wang Teng couldn't help but laugh out loud, the sound echoing in the cave and startling several birds roosting outside.
"They actually managed to steal Tang San's external soul bone!"
"This thing has the potential to grow!"
He was so excited that he spun around twice on the spot, and it took him a while to calm down. He couldn't wait to test the power of this soul bone.
Then, Wang Teng had a sudden thought, and his back suddenly felt warm.
"Fuck-"
With a few sharp tearing sounds, eight dark purple spider legs burst out from Wang Teng's back, stretching out in the air.
Each spider stinger attached to the external soul bone is as thick as an arm and four or five meters long. It radiates a cold, eerie luster, with sharp, spear-like tips and a faint, dark purple halo.
Wang Teng turned his head to look at it, and then tried to move around a bit more.
The eight spider legs seemed to be alive, moving flexibly according to his will, sometimes opening, sometimes closing, and sometimes waving in a crisscross pattern.
"Let's test its power."
He walked to the cave wall on one side, and his mind started working again.
"Snap—"
A spider leg suddenly shot out and pierced the stone wall.
The hard rock was as fragile as tofu in front of the spider's legs, and was easily pierced through.
With a powerful slash, Wang Teng's spider legs carved a deep trench in the rock face, sending pebbles tumbling down.
Before he could take a closer look, he heard a "sizzle" sound.
Fine bubbles began to rise around the scratch on the stone wall.
Upon closer inspection, Wang Teng discovered that some dark green liquid was seeping from the tips of his eight spider spears.
It was these liquids that corroded the surrounding stone walls, leaving them pitted and uneven.
"This toxicity..."
"hiss--"
Wang Teng gasped, staring at the corroded marks, speechless for a long time.
In the original novel, Tang San's Eight Spider Lances were also poisonous, but they were definitely not as domineering as this.
"It seems that when I absorbed the human-faced spider soul ring, I mixed it with the poisonous miasma of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and with the fusion of the 'Poison Without Trace' talent, the toxicity of these Eight Spider Lances is more than one level stronger than the original."
Wang Teng nodded thoughtfully, then grinned.
"Good, very good! The more poisonous, the better!"
He enthusiastically waved his spider legs around for a while, leaving dense scratches and corrosion pits on the cave wall. Only after he had had his fill did he retract his eight spider legs into his body.
After retrieving his external soul bone, he felt a tingling sensation on his back, and his tattered clothes revealed several large holes, feeling chilly.
Wang Teng looked down, smiled wryly, and pulled out a clean set of clothes from his storage soul tool to change into.
After getting dressed, his gaze fell once again on the panel of his spiritual sea, this time carefully examining the details of his third soul skill.
"Steel-winged Bat Spinner... Unevolved."
Wang Teng stroked his chin, his brows furrowed slightly, and said, "The sacred beast of the Steel Wing Bat Spinner is the Night Soul Bat, which is eight thousand years old."
Chapter 244 A sneak attack
"It seems that even though the third spirit ring fused with the energy of two spirit rings and increased its age, the age of the spinning top sacred beast is still mainly due to the Night Soul Bat. The energy of the human-faced spider did not add to the age of the sacred beast at all."
Then, Wang Teng's gaze moved down and landed on the "Spinning Top Skill Development" section.
Skill Development: Toxin Absorption!
"The meaning of developing this skill is..."
Wang Teng pondered, "Can my Steel Wing Bat Top absorb toxins from the outside world on its own?"
He thought about it and felt it was very likely.
After all, this spinning top itself has a poisonous attribute and the skill of "toxin absorption". If it can continuously absorb various toxins, it may not only increase its power, but also promote the evolution of the spinning top.
"The spinning top hasn't evolved... so how can we make it evolve?"
Wang Teng recalled the evolution conditions of the first two soul skills.
"The Gale Steed Spinning Top evolved because it absorbed the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, while the Sacred Firebird Spinning Top evolved because it first absorbed the Fatty's Evil Fire, and then absorbed the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower Immortal Grass at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well..."
"Since the Steel Wing Bat Spinner is poisonous, it will definitely need to find a sufficiently potent toxin to evolve."
Wang Teng's eyes lit up.
"Speaking of toxins, is there anything more potent than the ultimate ice and fire poison of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye?"
A smile crept onto Wang Teng's lips as he thought, "Looks like I'll have to find some time to go back to Sunset Forest again."
"I wonder if the Steel Wing Bat Spinner can evolve into an Extreme Poison attribute?"
After considering all of this, Wang Teng glanced at the other information on the panel to make sure he hadn't missed anything before withdrawing his attention.
He opened his eyes. The cave was still dark, but Wang Teng's mood was exceptionally bright.
He looked around, his gaze settling on the corpses of the Night Soul Bats on the ground.
"More than twenty Night Soul Bats, one Human-faced Spider... what if we can get one or two more Soul Bones?"
With a sense of urgency, Wang Teng walked to the nearest corpse, squatted down, and began to carefully dissect it.
The sharp dagger sliced through the flesh, and Wang Teng carefully examined every inch of the muscle, leaving no corner unchecked.
One, two, three...
He dissected more than ten animals in one go, and found nothing but flesh and bones.
Wang Teng did not give up and continued to dissect the remaining soul beast corpses.
Half an hour later.
Wang Teng stood up, patted the blood off his hands, looked at the mess on the ground, and shook his head with a wry smile.
"More than twenty Night Soul Bats, one Human-faced Spider, and not a single Soul Bone."
He sighed, disappointed, and said, "It seems that soul bones are indeed something that can only be encountered by chance."
"However, being able to obtain the Eight Spider Lances is already incredibly lucky."
Wang Teng tidied up the bodies of these soul beasts and slightly disassembled them.
He packed the useful materials into his storage soul tool and turned to walk towards the cave entrance.
Reaching the cave entrance, Wang Teng stopped and looked back one last time at the cave where he had spent so long.
On the cave wall, the scratches and corrosion marks left by the spider legs were clearly visible, recording his excitement and surprise just now.
"gone."
Wang Teng said something softly, then turned and strode out of the cave.
Outside the cave, the night was deep in the Starry Sky Forest.
Moonlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting streaks of light and shadow on the ground.
Just as Wang Teng stepped out of the cave and onto the open ground in front of it, heading towards the dense forest not far away,
Suddenly, a purple shadow darted out from the depths of the jungle on the right.
The figure wasn't very tall, only reaching Wang Teng's calves.
However, its speed is astonishing.
In the blink of an eye, the figure had already rushed to Wang Teng's right side, about five meters away.
Without pausing, the figure leaped forward and lunged straight at Wang Teng's neck.
"Oh no, it's a sneak attack!"
Although the soul beasts were cunning, Wang Teng was no pushover either.
Sure enough, Wang Teng spotted the attacker the moment it appeared.
At that moment, Wang Teng's pupils suddenly contracted, and the hairs on his body stood on end.
He had no time to think; he simply instinctively activated his soul bone.
"External Soul Bone, Eight Spider Lances!"
In the blink of an eye, eight dark purple spider stingers, each as thick as an arm, suddenly extended from Wang Teng's back.
These spider spines, as if alive, quickly intertwined and formed an impenetrable barrier, completely blocking Wang Teng's body.
"Click—"
A piercing crash suddenly rang out.
Immediately afterwards, an overwhelming force surged from the spider stingers on Wang Teng's right side.
Wang Teng stumbled, lost his balance instantly, and was sent flying.
"What incredible strength! What kind of spirit beast is this?"
Wang Teng frantically adjusted his center of gravity in mid-air, while simultaneously glancing quickly to the right at the audacious attacker out of the corner of his eye.
The attacker was a lightning ferret covered in deep purple fur.
It is only about half a meter long and looks rather thin, giving people the illusion that it is weak and frail.
However, judging from that head-on collision just now, anyone who dares to underestimate it will definitely suffer a great loss.
"Chirp—"
The Lightning Sable Soul Beast, which had just been blocked by Wang Teng's Eight Spider Spears, let out a sharp screech after landing.
Then, its seemingly slender legs suddenly exerted force, kicking out a small, shallow crater in the ground. Its entire body transformed into a streak of purple light once more, launching a second attack on Wang Teng.
It's so fast, incredibly fast.
In the blink of an eye, the Lightning Sable had already appeared ghost-like to Wang Teng's left.
