Chapter 785

When that huge figure appeared, the rest of the ground began to sink, increasing the s.p.a.ce . But that large figure continued to take up more and more of it .

The huge room was completely filled by it . Compared to it, Long Chen was just an ant . It was a huge Hidden Ground Gold Spider . Its skin was actually covered in scales, and each scale contained a rune . It looked as if it had been made of gold .

As soon as this huge spider appeared, it began to shrink . It shrank to the point that it was only three meters tall . Its two golden eyes stared closely at Long Chen, giving him gooseb.u.mps .

“This is absolutely impossible!” Long Chen roared inside . This was a seventh tier Magical Beast, and one on the level of a beast king . It could be compared to the Redeye Sacred Blood Phoenix .

Let alone now, even in his peak state, he wouldn’t be a match for this Hidden Ground Gold Spider King .

Long Chen’s luck really was lacking . This trial cave was just the first level of trials for the ancient disciples . Thus, its difficulty wasn’t actually too high .

The strongest guard of this place was originally just an early seventh rank Magical Beast . But with the crumbling of the Immemorial Path, there was no one to look over this place . That Magical Beast had actually begun to reproduce on its own .

Originally, with the laws of this place, it would be unable to continue cultivating . The early seventh rank was its absolute limit . But its children also then began to grow and reproduce . This spider king was one of those descendants .

Because of the laws and the formations present, they wouldn’t starve to death . Although their cultivation speed would be lowered, they could still grow .

As for this spider king, it had actually raised its own children and then consumed them once they got strong enough .

With this kind of a.s.similation method, it managed to break the restrictions of this place . After all these years, it had reached the peak of the seventh rank .

If it weren’t for this cave’s suppression, it could have even broken through to the eighth rank . This kind of ancient breed was extremely terrifying, and their growth limit was extremely high . As long as it was given enough time, it could even break through to the ninth rank .

But after reaching the peak of the seventh rank, this spider king had stopped consuming its children and begun cultivating underground .

Now, Long Chen had awoken it . As soon as it appeared, it charged at him . Long Chen was appalled . In his current state, not even a hundred lives would be enough to go against this fellow, which could be even more powerful than the Redeye Sacred Blood Phoenix .

“Don’t move!” shouted Long Chen .

The spider king was actually extremely obedient and instantly stopped moving . It glared at Long Chen, not daring to move .

To be more accurate, it was staring at the fist-sized scale that Long Chen was holding . It was clearly extremely apprehensive toward it .

“Let me tell you, my status is incredibly high, and if you’re smart, you’ll immediately leave while you can . I don’t want to have you as a steed,” shouted Long Chen .

Long Chen was holding the dragon scale, but he wasn’t releasing the dragon might . It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, but that he didn’t dare to . Last time, he had exhausted all the non-core energy within it .

If he activated the dragon might again, it would exhaust its core energy, and that might cause the purity of the essence blood within it to drop . If that affected his ability to cultivate the Dragon Blood Body Tempering Art, he wouldn’t even have a place to cry .

Even facing that many Hidden Ground Gold Spiders, he still hadn’t activated the dragon might, all because he couldn’t bear the consequences .

But in front of this spider king, he had no other choice . However, he didn’t activate the dragon might . He wanted to see if he could scare it away first .

He trusted that if he did activate the dragon might, he could subdue it into a housepet . Although that thought was enticing, it wasn’t worth it .

His intuition told him that what the dragon expert had left him was definitely a priceless treasure . He couldn’t take any chances with it .

Unless it was an absolute last resort, Long Chen wouldn’t activate the dragon might . But Long Chen was surprised to see the spider king was actually quite smart . It didn’t dare to move .

“Get back, get back! Don’t infuriate me! Let me tell you, if I get angry, I’ll even beat myself!” Long Chen slowly began to walk forward while holding the dragon scale .

The spider king was extremely apprehensive toward the dragon scale . As Long Chen advanced, it retreated .

Long Chen was delighted . It was working! He didn’t go too far against the spider king . He slowly detoured around it . But he continued to face the spider king, on guard against any sudden attack .

The spider king just watched as it allowed Long Chen to go past it . It didn’t attack . It was clearly too afraid of the dragon scale .

Once Long Chen got to the end of the room, a light barrier appeared in front of him . With no other choice, he could only choose to enter that light .

What Long Chen didn’t expect was that this light barrier was no transportation formation . It was just ordinary light that seemed to be acting like a door .
