Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 944 - 853: Giant Spider (Part 2)

Duan Gujin pondered for a moment, then responded via voice transmission: "This is unlikely. To control ten thousand undead martial bodies in the Breakthrough realm, the Nine-Colored Corpse Worm's cultivation must at least reach the Supreme God realm! A single Nine-Colored Corpse Worm needs to be much stronger than the undead it controls, only then can it manage such an overwhelming number of corpses! Furthermore, generally speaking, the farther the undead are from the Nine-Colored Corpse Worm, the stronger its power is!"Hearing Duan Gujin's explanation, Tang Chaoyang suddenly realized.

"I see, so that's how it is!"

His eyes immediately lit up as he understood the difference between the two Nine-Colored Corpse Worms he encountered before.

From a numerical perspective, the number of dead snakes controlled by the first Fire Element Nine-Colored Corpse Worm was terrifying, but he could tell that those dead snakes weren't very strong.

However, when he looked at those giant elephant corpses, he found they were much stronger than those dead snakes.

"So if we eliminate those two Nine-Colored Corpse Worms, what damage would that cause to the mastermind?"

He continued to ask.

"There might not be significant harm, but to unleash the full potential of corpse worms with different attribute powers, nine worms with different attribute powers and comparable strength must merge together. Since you eliminated two of the opponent's Nine-Colored Corpse Worms, the mastermind will need to cultivate two new ones! Generally, to cultivate such Nine-Colored Corpse Worms, many corpses are required as feed, whether human or demon beast. I'm particularly concerned that the mastermind might use human warrior corpses to expedite the cultivation! You must know, some people in this world will stop at nothing!"

"I understand, that mastermind cannot be allowed to remain!"

Tang Chaoyang knew the dangers of greed, and no one could predict if the mastermind would use human warrior corpses to cultivate the Nine-Colored Corpse Worms.

For the safety of the Chaotic Ancient Continent, Tang Chaoyang decided he must eliminate whoever controls the Nine-Colored Corpse Worms at all costs.

Under Tang Chaoyang's leadership, the team continued moving forward.

However, after advancing a few kilometers, they suddenly sensed strong tremors from the ground, and countless giant cracks appeared on the surface, and they even saw stones rolling down from the mountains ahead.

"Is it an earthquake?"

The same thought flashed through the minds of the martial artists present, and as they looked around, they saw huge cracks appearing in the surrounding mountains.

The group did not detect any demons nearby; the continuous shaking of the ground and the appearance of giant cracks suggested to them that it was indeed an earthquake.

"Everyone, prepare for battle!"

Tang Chaoyang shouted loudly.

He scanned the surroundings, his Divine Sense sweeping across every corner nearby.

He judged that it was likely an earthquake, but the timing seemed strangely coincidental, which made him feel uneasy.

Duan Gujin released his Divine Sense and carefully investigated the situation around them.

After a while, he discovered that an extremely powerful death energy was emanating from beneath the ground nearby.

"What a stench!"

Many of the nearby warriors smelled an extremely unpleasant odor, yet there were no decaying corpses around them.

However, the air was filled with the extremely unpleasant stench of rotting corpses.

Everyone's expressions immediately became extremely tense as they concluded the mastermind was likely about to appear.

"Look, there's movement ahead!"

Suddenly, an elder shouted loudly.

Following the direction the elder pointed, everyone looked ahead towards where the elder indicated.

Soon, everyone saw a black silhouette moving up ahead.

"What is that?"

Watching the movement of the figure, everyone conjectured that it might not be human but a demon beast.

After a while, as the figure drew closer, they finally saw what it was.

"Oh my god! That's a huge spider!"

Looking at the giant spider, about ten meters tall, everyone gasped in shock.

"Spread out, set the formation!"

Seeing the giant spider approaching, Tang Chaoyang immediately ordered everyone to spread out and set up a Killing Array.

"You humans up front, you killed my two darlings. I'm going to kill you to avenge them!"

Suddenly, a cold voice echoed from ahead.

Everyone was stunned upon hearing that cold voice.

They quickly surmised that the voice emanated from the giant spider ahead, concluding it was likely a demon beast.

Duan Gujin furrowed his brows slightly as his Divine Sense detected the strong death energy emanating from the giant spider.

This powerful death energy was entirely different from what he had sensed on the two Nine-Colored Corpse Worms earlier, and a thought quickly crossed his mind.

"Could this giant spider be the true form of the mastermind?"

Initially, he presumed that the mastermind controlling the Nine-Colored Corpse Worms was a human, but the result surprised him; he hadn't expected that the controller of the Nine-Colored Corpse Worms was a giant spider demon beast.

"Is that possible?"

The question lingered in his mind as he extended his Divine Sense to carefully sense the giant spider ahead, trying to understand its true nature.

After a while, he furrowed his brows even more tightly, realizing the giant spider indeed emitted a strong death energy.

"This death energy is too pure; it's very likely that the giant spider is the mastermind! The cultivation of this giant spider has reached the Shattering Void Fifth Realm!"

Upon sensing the giant spider's cultivation had reached the Shattering Void Fifth Realm, Duan Gujin's expression changed drastically, a sense of dread gripping him.

"Sect Leader Tang, the giant spider ahead possesses a cultivation of the Shattering Void Fifth Realm; are you certain your forces can handle it?"

Duan Gujin immediately asked Tang Chaoyang via secret voice transmission; he didn't want to witness Tang Chaoyang repeat any past mistakes.

"No, they can't!"

Tang Chaoyang pondered for a moment, exhaled a deep breath, and earnestly confessed to Duan Gujin.

"The spider ahead is too powerful! It must be the mastermind!"

"It seems likely!"

After discussing briefly among themselves, the other elders concluded that the giant spider must be the true mastermind.

"Do not engage in a direct confrontation with it; we must find its weak spot. Once discovered, we'll devise a strategy to counter it! If all else fails, we'll abandon this assault! No one is to act recklessly; you must follow my command!"

Tang Chaoyang immediately instructed.

"Understood!"

The elders nodded in unison.

"Set the Killing Array here immediately!"

Tang Chaoyang's eyes gleamed as he noticed the giant spider was still several kilometers away.

At this moment, the giant spider's movement was not rapid, giving them time to set up the Killing Array before it arrived.

Thus, the elders of the Chaotic Ancient Immortal Sect promptly began arranging Killing Arrays on the ground nearby.

If the giant spider stepped into the array, it would trigger the mechanisms within.

Moments later, the giant spider charged forward with rapid speed.

By this time, the Killing Array was set up, and they waited for the giant spider to step into it.

The martial artists retreated quickly, their eyes fixed on the array and the approaching spider.

After a while, they saw the giant spider's enormous claw step into the array, triggering the mechanisms within.

A powerful, destructive force erupted from the array, immediately striking the giant spider.
