Qing Lu, Ling Feng, Lie Jian, Yuan Shan, Jin Gu, Bo Jiang, Qi You, Hou Qian, Huo Shi, Bai Kuo, Duan Po, Zhe Ren and dozens of Huang Kong Chamber of Commerce disciples stood on the cliff, looking at the forest. Rogue cultivators running away.
Behind the casual cultivator, a huge spider with a body length of more than three feet was chasing after him, like a "walking" hill.
Its whole body is snow-white, as if it is covered with snow-colored armor. Its eight spider legs are one foot tall, and the spider legs are covered with protruding white thorns.
There are eight glowing red pupils on the top of its head. They are arranged in two rows, with a total of four rows, like mirrors that have been polished to reflect light.
A pair of sharp black fangs were exposed, like sickles, shining with a strange light under the dim light.
It is the White Ghost Spider King who had a fierce battle with the Sky-skimming Bat. It is a monster beast in the tenth realm of its formative stage.
Ling Feng, who had a soft sword wrapped around his waist, turned to look at Qing Lu beside him and asked, "Do you want to help them?"
As soon as he said this, Lie Jian and others drew confused looks. Although they didn't know the man's identity, they only knew that he had a good relationship with Qing Lu.
Therefore, they did not dare to express any opinions on this matter.
Qing Lu snorted coldly and said, "What are you doing to save them? The life and death of these humble cultivators has nothing to do with us."
Ling Feng said: "There are hundreds of casual cultivators down here. Let's not talk about their strength. They are also from our Western Continent. I think we should save them."
After Qing Lu heard what he said, he stared at him for a while and said, "Do we have to save him?"
Ling Feng said meaningfully: "We are here to deal with the monsters. It's just a little effort to save the casual cultivators, but you will gain more."
To everyone's surprise, instead of rejecting Ling Feng, Qing Lu readily agreed: "Okay! I'll listen to you."
Qing Lu's eyes swept across Lie Jian and others, and said: "You go and stop the White Ghost Spider King, Ling Feng and I will arrive soon."
Lie Jian and the others naturally didn't want to save the casual cultivators, but they didn't dare not listen to Qing Lu's words. Soon, they all jumped off the cliff.
After they left, Qing Lu looked at Ling Feng and asked, "Why do you want to save these casual cultivators?"
Ling Feng said slowly: "Although the strength of the casual cultivators is not very good, their numbers are huge. If you save their lives, they will definitely be grateful."
"In the future, if you have any use for them, do you think they will reject you?"
Qing Lu laughed suddenly and said, "When can I use them?"
Ling Feng replied naturally: "They are useless to you now, but they may be useful in the future."
"Actually, this trip to the Ghost Realm is not for us to capture the five-color stones and seven-color stones to show our strength."
"There is one more important thing to do than show your strength, and that is to have a good relationship with the casual cultivators, because there are many of them. As long as we get the support of the casual cultivators, it will be beneficial and harmless to us, and the city lord will also think highly of you. One glance.”
Seeing Qing Lu lowering his eyebrows in deep thought, he continued, "Also, haven't you always wanted to overpower Yue Jian? This is a good start."
"Strength cannot determine everything, people's hearts are the most important."
Qing Lu might not listen to what others said, especially those who were trying to teach him a lesson, but Ling Feng was different. The two of them had grown up and had a deep friendship with each other, so there was nothing they couldn't say.

Even if Ling Feng's tone was harsher, Qing Lu would think carefully and not lose his temper at him.
Among all the people in the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce who entered the Ghost Realm, only Ling Feng could persuade Qing Lu, and Qing Lu only listened to Ling Feng.

Elsewhere, Lu Shi wanted to take Lu Guan and others to find the whereabouts of the three-tailed howling wolf, but unexpectedly they ran into a sky-skimming flower bat that was killing loose cultivators.
It is more than two feet tall and has two gossamer-like wings with clearly visible bones inside.
Looking at his face, he looked like a rat living in the gutter, with two broad front teeth and smart eyes glowing red.
The ground around was covered with the corpses of casual cultivators, and the surrounding air was filled with the smell of blood. There was no doubt that the casual cultivators chased by the Sky-skimming Bats were all dead.
Lu Guan, who had long snow-white hair shawl and a long sword hanging on his waist, looked at Lu Shi beside him and said, "Brother, this sky-skimming bat is not easy to deal with. Do we really want to make an enemy of it?"
Lu Shi, who was wearing a black cloak, looked up at the grinning Sky-skimming Flower Bat and said, "It's not that we have to deal with it now, but that it's not ready to let us go."
Wearing gray clothes and with fleshless cheeks, Yaowen said very worriedly: "The strength of this smallpox bat is not weaker than the cold-blooded tiger shark, and may even be stronger than it. I'm afraid we are no match for it."
Jian Cheng, who was bloated and held a leaf-leaf fan in his hand, said, "It doesn't matter if you're not an opponent. It clearly wants to kill us. If we run away, we will be chased by it."
Jin Jian, who was wearing a black eyepatch on his left eye and a golden sword hilt hanging on his waist, said: "According to the current situation, retreat is impossible. We can only deal with it. Otherwise, it will be difficult to survive."
Wearing a gray wolf fur coat, with a bald head as smooth as jade, he said quietly: "Jin Jian's words are reasonable. I guess he doesn't dare to attack us easily, and he has some concerns."
The one-armed man Kun Yang nodded and agreed: "Indeed. We lost so many people in the last battle, and the main purpose was still too scattered. We can't be separated again this time."
The last battle he was talking about was the battle with the cold-blooded tiger shark at Green Willow Lake. In that battle, due to Lu Shi's arrogance, he lost not only several capable generals, but also all his men.
Now, only a few of them are left.
Of course, although Lu Shi obtained the colorful stones, he did so with the lives of his men. It can be said that he paid a heavy price.
If it had been in the past, Kun Yang would naturally not have mentioned that matter to everyone, because it was a heartache of Lu Shi, and he did not dare to mention it.
But it's different now. There are only three people, Lu Shi, Lu Guan and Yaowen, but there are four of them. This is the confidence in his heart.
Even if Lu Shi had anger in his heart, he had to hold it in. Once he had conflicts with Kun Yang and others, or made them angry, it would be difficult for him to find people who were good at fighting.
When Lu Guan saw that Lu Shi didn't look good, he pulled out the long sword from his waist and said, "Stop talking, dragging him down is not an option. Let's do it quickly."
Yaowen nodded and urged: "Yes, being stared at by this guy is not an option. If we don't hurt it, it won't let us go."
Jian Cheng, Jin Jian, Gou Liu, and Kun Yang looked at each other and nodded, and no longer mentioned Lu Shi's sadness. After a while, they, Lu Shi, Lu Guan, and Yaowen rushed towards the sky-skimming flower bat. .
———
In the damp cave, the stone walls were covered with water, the ground underfoot was a little slippery, and dewdrops were still hanging on the snow-white spider webs.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Tang Sheng, who was holding a torch, looked at the dim road ahead and said to Zi Yang beside him: "This cave is too big. Do we still want to go forward?"
"You're here, naturally you want to see clearly. How about I open the way in front?" After saying that, Zi Yang stretched out his right hand and tried to snatch the torch from Tang Sheng's hand.
Tang Sheng quickly removed his arm and said, "Don't forget, I am a person who plays with fire. Even if there are little spiders in this cave, they don't dare to come close."
"You can't do it. If you open the road ahead, if you are bitten by a little spider, no one will detoxify you."
Zi Yang felt that what he said was reasonable, so he did not forcefully snatch the torch from Tang Sheng's hand.
The next moment, Tang Sheng's whole body was ignited with fire, and the water on the stone wall evaporated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After all, there is everything in this dark and humid place, and if you are not careful, you will be attacked.
The purpose of his doing this was also to drive away those poisonous insects hiding in the dark so as not to be bitten by them.
Ziyang followed Tang Sheng for an unknown amount of time and came to a fairly open ground with not many cobwebs around.
Hanging over the open space are pupae wrapped in cobwebs one after another, about the size of an adult, breathing evenly.
Tang Sheng raised his right palm and was about to knock down the pupa hanging in the air when Zi Yang quickly raised his hand to stop him.
He looked at Ziyang in deep confusion and said, "What's wrong?"
Zi Yang pointed to the three caves leading to other places and said, "Did you notice that there are three more caves here?"
"You'd better not take action, otherwise, I'm afraid it will attract monsters."
Tang Sheng was full of questions: "Monster? Isn't the monster gone?"
Zi Yang said solemnly: "Let's go along the cave and have a look. I'm worried that there are not one White Ghost Spider King living here, but four."
When Tang Sheng heard this, he was shocked and said: "What?! Four? Impossible..."
"Are you too worried? How can monsters that are not of the same kind live together? These three caves are the White Ghost Spider King's passage to other places."
Zi Yang said: "We can tell at a glance whether it is true or not. As long as there are no spider webs in these three caves, it proves that there is not a monster living here."
Tang Sheng and Zi Yang visited the other three caves, and the situation was indeed as Zi Yang said. The White Ghost Spider King was not the only monster living here.
In the three caves, they found bats, centipedes and scorpions respectively, but no trace of large monsters.
Tang Sheng stared at Ziyang in surprise and said, "You are really right. There are four monsters living here, but they are not in the lair. Where have they gone?"
Zi Yang said: "Where to go? Isn't this an obvious thing?"
Tang Sheng pondered for a moment and then said: "You mean... the White Ghost Spider King and the Sky-grabbing Flower Bat did that on purpose to attract casual cultivators here so that they could be killed?"
Zi Yang nodded and said: "We hunt monsters, and monsters will also want to kill us. This is normal."
Tang Sheng thought about it and said with a solemn expression: "The fact that they can live in harmony in this cave is enough to show that their strength is equal. This is too scary."
"Yes." Zi Yang also said with a sad face: "Things are a little difficult to handle."
