Cultivation Online novel Chapter 34

Chapter 34 - Demonic Spider

"..."

After standing there with a pondering face for some time, Yuan finally said, "Okay, let’s do this. Even if that man may have lured us into this trap, if I leave now, who knows how many more people will fall victim to this scheme if I leave it alone."

"Tell me more about the Demonic Spider, Xiao Hua. Does it have any fatal weaknesses?"

Xiao Hua nodded and said, "Demonic Spiders are renowned for their powerful poison, which can easily kill someone below the Spirit Warrior level within mere seconds, and their sharp claws that can cut large boulders as though it’s paper. However, as long as you avoid these two deadly attacks, the Demonic Spider is no different than just an oversized spider."

"...You make it sound like it’s an easy task to dodge those attacks." Yuan looked at her with raised eyebrows.

"Although the Demonic Spider has powerful attacks, it lacks the speed to take advantage of its raw power. So as long as Brother Yuan pays attention, you shouldn’t have any problems dodging its attacks."

"I hope so..." Yuan sighed.

The two of them began walking deeper into the cave until they encountered what appeared to be an entrance to another area in the cave.

"This is definitely the boss room..." Yuan mumbled to himself after seeing the suspicious entrance that oozed with an obnoxious feeling.

"The Demonic Spider is right beyond that point, Brother Yuan, and it appears to be at the fourth level Spirit Warrior realm." Xiao Hua said to him after scouting for him using her spiritual sense.

"Fourth level... That’s one level higher than your recommended level..." Yuan said.

"Brother Yuan is a genius so it will be fine." Xiao Hua raised her thumb at him.

"I have a feeling that you are overestimating me..."

"Don’t worry, Brother Yuan. If you are in trouble, Xiao Hua will come to your rescue, so you can fight to your heart’s content."

"I guess so... What’s the worst that can happen? I die and restart my cultivation? Well, here goes nothing."

After taking a moment to prepare himself mentally, Yuan began walking towards the boss room with a sword in his hand.

After entering the boss room, Yuan could see a spacious area with webs and bones littering the ground, but there was no sight of the Demonic Spider.

"Where’s the Demonic Spider?" he asked after looking left and right without seeing the monster.

"It’s above you, Brother Yuan." Xiao Hua said to him.

"Why didn’t you tell me that before I entered this room?!" Yuan immediately looked up at the ceiling, where a 5-meter tall monster with a half-human and half-body spider was hanging on the webs that covered the entire cave ceiling.

"That thing is massive!" Yuan exclaimed with a terrified expression, as he has never seen anything this terrifying before.

Not only did it look like a monster straight out of a horror movie, but it also had eight massive and sharp legs, and each of them was as big as Yuan’s entire body.

"Be careful, Brother Yuan! It’s coming!"

Right as Xiao Hua warned him, the Demonic Spider kicked its legs and jumped at Yuan with its large mouth wide open.
