Chapter 690: Five Colored Spider

“It’s been a long time since I tasted such tasty meat. You humans are indeed the most delicious thing in the world.”

The Rhinoceros Beast King’s eyes were half closed. Its face was filled with pleasure. Continuous chomping sounds could be heard coming from its mouth.

Mo Wen’s expression was strained. He knew being eaten by a Beast King would be very painful and couldn’t help but shiver at the thought.

It only took the Rhinoceros Beast King a short while to eat Bu Xingyi. As the Rhinoceros Beast King licked its lips, it laughingly said, “Tasty. It is very tasty. Since you have given me your companion, are you going to give yourself to me now? Now that my hunger is satisfied, I will be able to slowly savor you bit by bit.”

The Rhinoceros Beast King laughed hideously. Greed permeated its gaze as it stared at Mo Wen. It could not wait to swallow him.

“Don’t you know that such greedy beings usually do not live long?” Mo Wen said as he stared at the Beast King. “Besides, let me correct you, he was not my companion. He was not qualified to be my companion.”

“Haha! You, laughable human, actually dare to threaten me. I have eaten your companion. It will not be long before I can transform into a Monster. The strongest being on this island is merely a Half-Monster. Once I transformed into a Monster, I will be the king of this whole island. Nobody can threaten me,” the Rhinoceros Beast King said loudly. He laughed resoundingly, with a pleased look in his eyes. “If I eat you too, I may be able to improve further.”

The Rhinoceros Beast King twisted its huge figure as it walked towards Mo Wen. It had a look of desire in its eyes.

A killing intent flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. “Alright then. Come and eat me.”

If he had the opportunity, he wanted to kill this Rhinoceros Beast King. Right now, he only needed to kill another two Beast Kings and his cultivation would break through to the later stage Golden Elixir realm. When that happened, even on this Beast King Island, he would have the ability to protect himself.

Suddenly, Mo Wen seemed to have sensed something, raising his head.

In the sky above the clouds, seven lights had appeared at some point. One of the lights had already been extinguished.

“The Lights of Life.”

Mo Wen lowered his gaze. The seven lights were the Lights of Life for the seven humans on Beast King Island. Each person had a corresponding light. Once they died, the light would extinguish.

All the human ancient martial art practitioners could instantly identify whether the others were alive or not through the Lights of Life. As long as there was still one at the end of the task, they would win.

The light that had been extinguished was clearly Bu Xingyi’s Light of Life.

The trident in the sky emanated a brilliant light. The Rhinoceros Beast King raised its two feet and furiously stomped down. The circle of light furiously expanded, crashing towards Mo Wen. Up in the sky, the trident also charged downwards, heading straight for Mo Wen.

However, just as Mo Wen was prepared to go all out, a strange thing happened. A beam of white light descended from the sky, enveloping the Rhinoceros Beast King’s body. The next moment, the Rhinoceros Beast King disappeared from its original spot. No trace of it could not be detected at all. Even the circle of ferocious blue light and the trident in the sky disappeared in an instant.

Peace returned to the forest. It was as though nothing had happened.

Mo Wen was stunned. What was going on?

Why did the Beast King disappear into thin air out of the blue? Could it be…?

Immediately, Mo Wen thought of a possibility. Most likely the Tower Spirit had retrieved the Rhinoceros Beast King. Since the Tower Spirit had announced that Beast Kings could be upgraded to be Devil Clan through eating ancient martial art practitioners, it could not go back on its word. Otherwise, if the other Beast Kings knew that eating a human ancient martial art practitioner would not raise them to become members of the Devil Clan, they might not seek human ancient martial art practitioners so passionately.

If the Rhinoceros Beast King ate Bu Xingyi and successfully became a member of the Devil Clan, it would certainly disrupt the balance of the island. The Tower Spirit naturally could not let such a thing happen and so had removed the creature after the Rhinoceros Beast King had eaten Bu Xingyi. That way it would not affect the balance on Beast King Island, and at the same time would not affect the other Beast Kings’ passion for hunting humans.

Mo Wen touched his chin. Bu Xingyi would not have imagined that after the Rhinoceros Beast King ate him, it would leave the Beast King Island. If he knew what had just happened, he would have been so angry that he would have coughed up blood. After what had happened to him, Bu Xingyi still hoped that the Rhinoceros Beast King would also eat Mo Wen alive.

Without the Rhinoceros Beast King hunting him, Mo Wen continued wandering around the Island. He did not dare to simply find a place to hide because he knew that no matter where he hid, he would be found by a Beast King. He could even possibly be surrounded by a pack of Beast Kings. It seemed as though constantly changing his location on the island was the best method to survive.

Time passed slowly. During the day, Mo Wen encountered many dangers. Many of them could not be predicted. If it wasn’t for his acute sense and extraordinary ability, as well as the treasures that he had to protect him, he could possibly have died on this island.

Once, he was even surrounded by five Beast Kings. Only after a fierce battle did he manage to escape within an inch of his life.

In the sky above, three of the seven lights had already been extinguished. That meant that three of the human ancient martial art practitioners had completely died.

However, Mo Wen was not surprised. This island had too many uncertainties. With a slight slip up, even he could possibly die here.

After more than half a day, the fact only three people had died was not that bad.

Mo Wen narrowed his eyes slightly. He strolled around in a valley at a casual pace. It seemed as though he was relaxed, but, in reality, he was always on high alert. No movement could escape his eyes.

He did not dare to fly in the sky, because that would make him too much of a target Even the Beast Kings on the ground would come over to hunt him, not to mention the various levels of Beast Kings in the sky

Suddenly, Mo Wen stopped in his tracks. He narrowed his gaze, his eyes staring intently in front of him.

A formless spider web was stretched across the valley, seemingly surrounding the place. The spider web was sometimes there and gone the next, barely visible to the naked eye. It also did not emanate any aura, seemingly fusing with the surrounding air.

Even ancient martial art practitioners with high cultivation would not detect the spider web if they were not paying attention.

Mo Wen did not dare take even a step forward. Although he did not know what was so different about this spider web, he knew that anything that appeared on this island would not be ordinary. He could not afford to be careless.

He took two steps back and turned, planning to leave the way he had come. However, he had not even taken two steps when he suddenly stopped and narrowed his gaze. The road down which he had come was also now covered in a layer of spider webs. The spider web was so fine that it was almost invisible. If his soul power had not reached a very high level, he most likely would not have noticed it.

When he had just walked past, there had been no spider webs there at all. These things had actually appeared behind him without him knowing. He hadn’t noticed a thing. Whoever was responsible for it, this hidden method that could evade Mo Wen’s sensory ability was astonishing.

“What is this? Acting so sneakily?” Mo Wen said plainly. He knew that he had caught the eye of something.

“Such acute sensory ability. You are a strange human.” A somewhat high-pitched, unpleasant voice sounded. It seemed as though it came from a female voice which was rare on this island.

A huge boulder in the valley slowly cracked apart, and a gorgeous five colored spider leg extended out. It was followed by a second leg, and then a third.

An eight-legged, colorful spider emerged from the ground, which was layered with gravel. The spider was huge, the size of a pavilion. Its gigantic body, which was supported by its eight legs, was five meters tall.

The colorful spider was beautiful. Its iridescent body shimmered under the sunlight.

“So you are a spider.”

A look of understanding flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. These spider webs must have been set up by this spider Beast King. The spider Beast King before his eyes may not have very high cultivation, but its ability to conceal itself was impressive. Even Mo Wen had not been able to discover its hiding spot.

“Despicable human, you are the spider. I am a colorful Beast King, with the Five Colored Spider’s bloodline,” the Five Colored Spider said proudly as it lifted its forequarters up.

For monstrous beasts, their bloodlines were the most fundamental aspect of their being. Nothing was more important than their bloodline. It was because their bloodline determined their talents and ability. At the same time, it determined their status.

“No matter what bloodline you are, since you have shown yourself, don’t blame me for sending you on your way.”

Mo Wen stroked his chin. Since he had arrived on this Beast King Island, he had been contemplating about killing a Beast King or two. He only needed to kill two more Beast Kings before he could advance to the later stage of the Golden Elixir Realm. However, half a day had passed and he had not managed to kill any Beast Kings.

Beast Kings were always hard to kill. On Beast King Island, it was even harder to kill them. If one went all out trying to deal with a Beast King, other Beast Kings might be attracted by the sounds of battle and join the fight. He could be surrounded, or maybe they would conceal themselves, awaiting an opportunity to strike.

Mo Wen had nearly killed a Beast King several times, but each time he had failed because other Beast Kings had appeared.

He looked carefully at this valley. There seemed to be no other Beast King around. This seemed to be the Five Colored Spider’s personal territory. The chances of attracting other Beast Kings while battling here were slim.

Of course, if he could not kill this Five Colored Spider in a short amount of time, as time dragged on, the battle would still attract other Beast Kings.

If the Five Colored Beast King was a Beast King with very high cultivation, he most likely would not even try to kill it. However, although this Five Colored Spider was extraordinary, its cultivation was average. It had probably become a Beast King fairly recently.

If Mo Wen could restrain this Beast King, it would be easy for him to kill it.

“You, an arrogant human, actually intend to kill me. Surely you do not know the immensity of heaven and earth.”

The Five-Colored Spider laughed loudly. Its laughter was sharp, as though a sharp metal was scratching a glass surface. Its disdainful tone seemed to be mocking Mo Wen’s overconfidence.

The Five-Colored Spider was a Beast King. Its cultivation was akin to that of human Martial Arts Grandmaster. This human ancient martial art practitioner was still far from becoming a Martial Arts Grandmaster, and yet he dared to talk big.
