In mid-air,
“Gwa!”
The Ghostface Curse Frog sensed the danger. Seeing the black-red sword light coming straight for it, it instinctively tried to retreat, but with no way to gain leverage in the air, it could only let out a croak to hinder its opponent.
“Gwa!”
However, the Little Spider didn't pause in the slightest. Its delicate ears were, at some point, covered by earplugs formed from spider silk, blocking the Ghostface Curse Frog's last resort.
It could only watch in infinite terror as the black-red sword light descended upon it.
Like a boundless dark night enveloping all things!
Crack!
Along with a flash of cold light, the sound of flesh being dismembered rang out!
Its long tongue was sliced into several pieces in mid-air.
The excruciating pain nearly sent the Ghostface Curse Frog into shock. Its body went rigid and, along with its severed tongue, smashed into the mud below, splattering sludge everywhere.
Countless drops of blood rained down, painting a hellish scene on the ground.
And the Little Spider stood in the void, holding blood-stained dual blades of spider silk crossed before it, like an elegant…
Peerless Sword-Maiden!
Lu Yu's gaze was cautious, not letting his guard down, but his words were a playful provocation:
“Giving up already? Not going to stand up and croak a few more times?”
This round, he used a Provocation Skill.
Let's see if the Ghostface Curse Frog is truly heavily injured.
“Gurgle gurgle…”
Faced with the taunt, the Ghostface Curse Frog wanted to get angry, but its head was groggy, and a large amount of blood surged up, blocking its throat, making it feel incredibly uncomfortable.
The double blow of its severed tongue and a severe mental attack had affected the Ghostface Curse Frog's vocal organs. A large number of its skills, including Curse Croak, were now unusable, rendering it half-crippled.
Seeing this, Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
The Ghostface Curse Frog had been taking things step-by-step, but so had he.
Facing an elite-rank pet beast, even if it was born prematurely and still in its weakened period—equivalent to going into battle with a baby bottle.
Logically, it should be weaker than a normal elite pet beast, but this thing's intelligence was too high.
It had maintained its distance throughout the battle, weakening its opponent with Curse Croaks and Cursed Puppets, hiding its own disadvantages and proceeding cautiously, making it even more troublesome.
If this continued, it would lead to a stalemate.
Under the influence of the prolonged Curse Croak, the Weakening Curse would continuously stack up, eventually reaching the regulatory threshold of the blindfold and starting to weaken the Little Spider's power.
Coupled with the weakness from frequently using Void Ray, it would have fallen into a disadvantageous position.
So Lu Yu had deliberately shown an opening, using the opponent's cunning nature to make it follow his line of thought and attack.
Basically, any normal person, upon seeing so many space-type abilities, would assume the Little Spider was a squishy mage and wouldn't be able to resist closing in for an attack.
Unfortunately for it, it had encountered a bug!
A top-tier overlord in its infancy, born from a Secret Food, not only mastered the powers of the Void and Dreamscape, but also possessed a set of exquisite swordsmanship inherited from the 【Heavenly Nun】!
A top genius who reached Gold Spirituality through swordsmanship in a lower world, with talent that even made native gods take notice.
Swordsmanship that Reaches Divinity!
Therefore, in the final blow, the Little Spider used 【Mind's Eye Soul-Controlling Sword】, infusing a trace of soul power.
It not only severed the tongue but also attached a mental attack.
It successfully crossed a rank to defeat an elite-rank pet beast!
Most importantly, with the 【Etherealization】 skill as a safety net, it could try again even if it failed.
“Gwa gwa gwa…”
The Ghostface Curse Frog looked at the sword-wielding Little Spider approaching, as if it were looking at the god of death. Terror appeared in its huge eyes.
Despite its cruel nature and being an undead-type, the Ghostface Curse Frog did not disregard life and death; on the contrary, it feared death even more.
It crawled on the ground in terror with its forelimbs, manipulating a large number of Puppet Birds and Puppet Frogs to come forward, attempting to block the Little Spider.
However, without the interference of an elite-rank foe, these were nothing but targets. The Little Spider used its Mind's Eye to capture the attacks from all directions.
Although she was a nun of the Silver Sun Church, the blind Heavenly Nun had never seen what the sun was, relying solely on her Mind's Eye to perceive all things.
Therefore, in her eyes, the Sun God was also the God of the Great Black Sky!
And she was the Light-Chaser in the endless darkness!
【Great Black Sky Sword Dance, First Form — Chasing Light】
Her figure flashed, the sword blades rising like a dragon-serpent to the heavens, then instantly diving into the abyss.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Little Spider sheathed its swords and walked forward slowly. All the Cursed Puppets froze in mid-air as if time had stopped.
The next moment, they instantly disintegrated, scattering into countless fragments.
“Gwa gwa gwa…”
The Ghostface Curse Frog fell into complete despair.
It lay prostrate on the ground, ignoring the blood overflowing from its mouth, and let out a pleading whimper, indicating its willingness to submit in hopes of gaining the Little Spider's mercy.
“Ying…”
The Little Spider hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, and actually took a few steps back, dispelling the long spider silk swords in its hands.
'Has it gone soft?'
Lu Yu frowned, thinking that the Little Spider still lacked experience. Such indecisiveness would definitely lead to great losses.
However, before he could speak, he saw a scene that made his jaw drop.
Swish! Swish!
The Little Spider controlled dozens of strands of spider silk to instantly pierce through its body, causing the Ghostface Curse Frog's joyful expression to freeze.
After dying with deep shock, its corpse was then beaten for a full minute.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The earth was pierced and shattered by the spider silk, sinking by more than half a meter.
Countless fragments of rock flew, and the scene was extremely bloody.
“Hmph-ji!!”
On the other side, although the Great Peach Pig King was massive, it was particularly timid and afraid of death; after all, the stubborn ones had long been killed.
So at the very beginning, it had fled to a distant spot with the other Peach Pigs. Just as it was about to catch its breath, it saw this scene and trembled in fear.
So… so ruthless!
This human's pet beast was actually this strong, and petty too, enjoying beating corpses. A good thing he hadn't offended him before.
Otherwise, he'd be finished.
In the future, he'd let him have his way, and must never be stubborn again!
After confirming the creature was thoroughly dead, and even flipping it over repeatedly with spider silk, it then shouted happily at Lu Yu:
“Ying ying!”
Master, I've confirmed it's okay.
The corpse isn't poisonous and won't release dangerous toxic gas.
Hearing this, Lu Yu was stunned.
He had thought the Little Spider was going soft and was preparing to lecture it on life philosophy.
But it turned out… stepping back was just to prevent the opponent from spitting out toxic gas in a final, suicidal attack.
And it even beat the corpse repeatedly to ensure it was dead!
My pet beast is truly… overly prudent!
He had been taught a lesson in return.
Lu Yu swallowed his words, patting the Little Spider's head with a complicated feeling as he praised it:
“Well done.”
“Ying!”
The corners of the Little Spider's mouth turned up in a brilliant smile.
It scurried up to its master's shoulder, took out a Dream Fragment, and began to munch on it, its cheeks puffed up like a little hamster, starting to replenish its lost stamina.
Lu Yu, on the other hand, looked at the frog corpse buried under the rubble, a trace of pity flashing in his eyes as he silently recited the command to extract materials.
With a flash of Eternal White Light that only he could see, the Ghostface Curse Frog's corpse instantly decomposed for the most part, turning into a ball of light that fell into Lu Yu's hands.
【Ghostface Curse Frog's Cursed Puppet Organ (Two-star): The Ghostface Curse Frog can spread curses and create Cursed Puppets through sound. It can be strengthened by devouring the internal organs of living creatures.
】
The damaged material was perfectly extracted in its entirety by the All-things Extraction ability, a miracle that even grandmasters of Material Science could not achieve.
However, for Lu Yu who grasped the Truth, it was as simple as eating and drinking.
In reality, although the Ghostface Curse Frog was dangerous, because it was extremely rare, and with its two racial skills, Curse Croak and Art of the Cursed Puppet, one could easily create a small sea of puppets with sufficient spiritual power.
Thus, it was ranked ninth on the most coveted Gold Pet Beast Ranking for the Undead-type.
If one could capture a live one, it could easily be sold for a sky-high price.
But in the end, Lu Yu still chose to kill it, and not just because the Ghostface Curse Frog would be more dangerous after its weakened period.
It was because within the Eye of Truth, a 【Skill Secret Food】 had appeared, one that used the Ghostface Curse Frog's extraordinary organ as the main material!
A powerful skill, suitable for the Little Spider, that he couldn't resist.
Just as Lu Yu was thinking about how to prepare the materials for the Skill Secret Food, he suddenly felt a massive Spiritual Energy Fluctuation.
He subconsciously turned his head and saw a huge figure descending from the sky, shaking the earth.
Rumble!
Amidst a sky full of settling dust and a slight tremor of the earth.
A giant deer-like creature, three meters tall and nearly six meters long, appeared on the ground. The reason it was called "deer-like" was that its face was not that of a deer, but resembled a welded-on iron lion mask, its expression stern.
The powerful pressure of the Commander Rank was released without restraint, spreading in all directions.
It made Lu Yu feel a wave of oppression wash over him.
A Commander Rank pet beast, the Lion-faced Deer!
Before Lu Yu could react, a questioning voice came from the back of the Lion-faced Deer:
“Where is the enemy?”
