Chapter 257 Spider Cave

Bai Qi saw the secret sign left by Savage in the center of the camp. The content was roughly that Bai Qi should hurry up when he arrived, otherwise he wouldn't leave any good things for him; Savage also left marks along the way to help Bai Qi find them.

Bai Qi followed the marks, quickening his pace, and soon saw the tail of the team.

Although Bai Qi wasted a lot of time dealing with the lobster monster, Savage and the others hadn't gone far.

Passing through the Great Rift did not lead directly to the lost continent. It was still a long way to go, and this road was not only rugged and difficult, but also full of traps and mechanisms along the way. Falling rocks, flying arrows, and pitfalls were all common. What was even more terrifying were the many creatures with deformed appearances and extreme aggression.

Bai Qi followed Savage's marks to a skull-shaped mountain. This small mountain blocked the road, with the left and right eyes representing two paths. According to the marks, Savage and the others first entered the left path and then escaped and entered the right path.

Since Savage had already scouted the way forward for him, Bai Qi had nothing to hesitate about and walked directly into the right cave.

The first thing Bai Qi saw after entering the cave was spiderwebs. Huge spiderwebs hung on the cave walls, numerous and each strand as thick as an infant's calf.

With such thick silk, how big must the spider be?

Bai Qi's confusion was answered not long after.

After a section of tunnel, Bai Qi's eyes suddenly brightened. Emerging from the tunnel, Bai Qi entered a huge underground cave. Compared to the tunnel, the cave had no less spiderwebs, and more importantly, Bai Qi saw the exploration vehicles tied up like zongzi here.

Bai Qi stepped forward, lifted a cocoon with one hand, then inserted his other hand and tore it fiercely. A large piece of the cocoon was torn off, revealing a shriveled corpse inside.

From the condition of the corpse, it was not difficult to see that the man had struggled fiercely before he died, but unfortunately, he had failed in the end, and was drained of blood and died.

Just as Bai Qi was grabbing the second cocoon to examine it, a strand of silk shot out from diagonally above, sticking directly to Bai Qi's back, and then began to pull Bai Qi up.

Bai Qi was not flustered at all. He reached back, grabbed the silk stuck to his back, and pulled hard.

Bang!

A black hairy spider, the size of a small car, was yanked down from the cave ceiling by Bai Qi.

The large spider fell to the ground, directly cracking the ground beneath it.

This spider did not immediately stand up after being pulled down by Bai Qi, but after a few seconds of pause, it slowly flipped over, staring warily at Bai Qi.

It couldn't understand why a human would have such great strength.

"Not bad, not bad, it's indeed a good thing. If only I could subdue it..."

While the giant spider was staring at Bai Qi, Bai Qi was also scrutinizing the giant spider.

Especially Bai Qi's aggressive gaze, which actually made the giant spider a little scared, and it quickly called out four or five companions.

In an instant, five more giant spiders descended from the cave ceiling, surrounding Bai Qi.

Seeing that they had the advantage in numbers and terrain, the giant spider's fear gradually subsided.

Then, the six spiders simultaneously spat silk at Bai Qi, intending to bind him and then slowly drain all the blood from his body.

Facing the six incoming strands of silk, Bai Qi was not flustered at all. Flames emerged from his right hand, and with a 360-degree rotation, the flames in his hand instantly expanded, forming a wall of fire around Bai Qi, burning all the incoming silk.

Before the spiders could react, two lasers broke through the wall of fire, directly piercing the bodies of two giant spiders. The remaining few giant spiders, seeing that the situation was not good, turned to flee, but were lifted by Bai Qi's telekinesis. With a squeeze of his hands, four spiders were instantly crushed, and green juice splattered everywhere.

After dealing with the six giant spiders, Bai Qi looked around, slowly raised his head, and finally his gaze fixed on the dark cave ceiling.

"Aren't you going to come out?"

Seeing no response, Bai Qi opened his mouth, and a scorching dragon's breath slowly gathered in his mouth, feeling as if it would be spewed out at any moment.

"Stop!"

Just before the dragon's breath was about to be spewed out, a voice echoed in the cave, and then a monster with the upper body of a human female and the lower body of a spider descended from above the cave.

We will temporarily call her the Spider Woman here, not because she is the Spider Queen, but because she is a clone of the Spider Queen.

After the Spider Woman came before Bai Qi, the true Spider Queen also revealed her true form, a huge black hairy spider that directly occupied the entire top layer of the cave.

The Spider Woman, in mental synchronization with the Spider Queen above, said, "Demon! Why have you come to my territory and killed my offspring."

That's right, the Spider Queen recognized at a glance that Bai Qi was one of the eight primordial demons.

As an extremely ancient black energy creature, the Spider Queen had lived for an unknown amount of time.

Therefore, she naturally knew that the eight demons should have all been sealed in hell. But she sensed the aura of the fire demon on this person. What was going on?

Bai Qi, hearing the questioning tone of the Spider Queen, did not get angry, but burst into laughter. Then he grabbed the Spider Woman's neck, ascended rapidly to the front of the Spider Queen's main body, and said, "First, your subordinates attacked me first. Second, a lowly black energy creature dares to speak to me like this. Do you really think demons are easy to bully?"

"This..."

The Spider Queen knew something about hell. She heard that it was a terrifying place where any creature sealed in, whether demon or black energy creature, would be constantly weakened by hell. Both their strength and intelligence would decline over time.

So much time had passed since the sealing of the eight great demons. Even if the original eight great demons had immense magical power, after years of weakening, they must have been reduced to dogs.

This was the basis for the Spider Queen daring to speak to a primordial demon like this.

But judging by Bai Qi's tone of voice and the powerful aura he exuded, he didn't look like he had been weakened into a dog at all. This made the Spider Queen instantly become cautious.

"What do you want?"

"What do I want?" Bai Qi raised his eyebrows and said, "Surrender or death. You decide."

Hearing this, the Spider Queen instantly found it amusing.

She was too familiar with the temperaments of demons. It could be said that they would retaliate for any offense, and even the slightest disrespect would be met with the death penalty. Yet this guy was giving her a choice.

The situation was now clear.
