135: Spider Silk Body Binding

While Xun Xiuyuan was using a ningshen crystal to refine his mental energy, Bai Lun came to find him.

Bai Lun was now incredibly respectful towards Xun Xiuyuan; this was a monster who had killed hundreds of thousands of Shattering Void Realm cultivators in a single battle.

Crucially, among the Alien Beast Clan, with the exception of a few special races, their cultivation in soul aspects was generally not very strong.

Naturally, they would always feel some fear towards those proficient in Soul Secret Skills, especially since Xun Xiuyuan was a genius who could easily kill even Ghost Spiders of the same rank.

"What's going on? Craving barbecue?" Xun Xiuyuan was in a very cheerful mood at this moment; the gains from the ningshen crystal and the surge in his mental energy were all delightful things.

Bai Lun said, "Bai Nao adult sent word, asking me to inquire if you are available. The Sky-Rending Ape Clan is currently fighting the Ghost Spider Clan. He asked if you have time to go help, and the Sky-Rending Ape Clan is willing to offer a large amount of ningshen crystal as compensation."

Xun Xiuyuan's eyes lit up upon hearing this. Such a good thing!

He immediately said, "What do you mean, 'do I have time'? We're brothers! Lead the way; we'll go help right now. Although Soul Secret Skills consume a lot, we still have to help."

Bai Lun understood upon hearing this and smiled, "The Sky-Rending Ape Clan are body cultivators, so their consumption of ningshen crystal is not significant. They must have a huge stock, so don't worry."

Xun Xiuyuan smiled and nodded, then, with Bai Lun, he went to the Heaven Splitting Ape's position via a teleportation array.

Bai Nao's divine sense detected Xun Xiuyuan's arrival, and he immediately said to Yuan Gang, "This master is my sworn brother. If I invite him, he will definitely come to help."

Bai Nao didn't actually know if Xun Xiuyuan would come. He had just been placating Yuan Gang while arranging for Bai Lun to go inquire.

Now that his divine sense had detected Xun Xiuyuan, it meant he was certainly willing to help, so his words became more confident.

Yuan Gang listened to Bai Nao's words and also sensed an unfamiliar life aura, which he presumed belonged to that human.

Subsequently, Xun Xiuyuan, led by Bai Lun, arrived before Yuan Gang and Bai Nao.

Yuan Gang's originally enthusiastic face fell the moment he saw Xun Xiuyuan.

He immediately transmitted a message to Bai Nao, "A human in the Shattering Void Realm, is this the human master you spoke of?"

Bai Nao knew this would happen and immediately transmitted back, "His Soul Secret Skill is incredibly powerful, the kind that attacks groups. You must not underestimate him."

Yuan Gang looked at Xun Xiuyuan with a mix of belief and doubt.

Finally, he chose to trust Bai Nao, took out a spatial ring, and handed it to Xun Xiuyuan, saying, "Human brother, you've come a long way. This is a small token; I hope you don't mind."

Xun Xiuyuan took the ring and glanced at it. Wow, a small mountain of ningshen crystal, truly generous.

He immediately adopted the demeanor of a diligent worker and said to Yuan Gang, "Senior, how do you need me to help?"

Yuan Gang waved his large hand, directly tearing open the space before them. On the other side of the space was the battlefield.

Countless Ghost Spiders and a massive number of Sky-Rending Ape Clan members were locked in battle. The Heaven Splitting Ape's individual combat ability was very strong, but their mental energy was not outstanding.

They were a race with very obvious strengths and weaknesses. The Ghost Spiders excelled in their vast numbers and powerful mental energy, but their physical bodies were relatively weak.

During the fierce fighting, it was clear that the Heaven Splitting Ape suffered more casualties than the Ghost Spiders, and their overall numbers were also inferior to the Ghost Spiders.

Xun Xiuyuan understood, but still said, "My Soul Secret Skill doesn't distinguish between friend and foe. What should I do? The two sides are currently in a stalemate."

At this moment, Xun Xiuyuan could only say this. He couldn't let Bai Nao realize that he could control the attacks of Dream of a Thousand Years, as that would make it difficult to explain the tens of thousands of Bai Wen Hu who had died in battle.

Yuan Gang frowned in thought, watching as more and more of his clansmen fell on the battlefield.

Finally, he said, "Daoist Xun, after you enter the battlefield, don't use your skill immediately. Activate it after ten breaths. I will try my best to pull our clansmen back within those ten breaths. What do you think?"

Xun Xiuyuan nodded without much hesitation, directly entering the battlefield through the spatial rift torn open by Yuan Gang.

The Sky-Rending Ape Clan members were somewhat bewildered to suddenly see a human on the battlefield. Before they could figure out what to do, they received an order to retreat.

The speed of these body cultivators was truly astonishing. Even without instant transmission, their speed was comparable to it. Within less than five breaths of arriving on the scene, the Sky-Rending Ape Clan had already retreated a great distance.

Seeing the Ghost Spiders about to pursue the Sky-Rending Ape Clan, Xun Xiuyuan immediately cast Dream of a Thousand Years.

The Dream of a Thousand Years he cast this time was completely different from previous uses, as if it had no spatiotemporal limitations, instantly covering more than half of the battlefield.

Of course, it wasn't just the Ghost Spiders, but also a very small number of Heaven Splitting Apes, who were enveloped within the range of Dream of a Thousand Years.

Two hundred thousand mental energy and one hundred forty thousand mental energy were completely different concepts.

Within the range covered by Dream of a Thousand Years, hundreds of thousands of Ghost Spiders and tens of thousands of Heaven Splitting Apes seemed to suddenly lose their souls, falling into a deep sleep one after another.

Even a very few individual Ghost Spiders, whose mental energy was exceptionally powerful, still could not break free from the control of Dream of a Thousand Years, attacking indiscriminately with red eyes.

Bai Nao was stunned when he saw Xun Xiuyuan's combat power at this moment. Was he that fierce just now?

This speed of killing enemies was at least ten times faster than before.

Yuan Gang was also filled with shock and delight, saying to Bai Nao, "Indeed, he is a master, a human master, formidable! He instantly killed hundreds of thousands of Ghost Spiders."

Bai Lun also witnessed this scene, and his fear of Xun Xiuyuan deepened even further.

While killing, Xun Xiuyuan obtained Force Law Fragments (7) and (8), which he must have acquired from accidentally injuring those Heaven Splitting Apes.

At the very rear of the Ghost Spider horde, several enormous Ghost Spiders were conversing.

"Why are our children dying so quickly?"

"It must be some kind of disposable weapon developed by humans again, being used by these stupid beasts."

"Hmm, you have a point. The human race's research and development capabilities are too strong. I don't want to fight against humans. It's a good thing we were sent to fight the Alien Beasts, haha!"

"Something's not right. The death toll is too high, already hundreds of thousands, isn't it? If this continues, should we go take a look?"

"Then let's go together. Let's go!"

Xun Xiuyuan moved several kilometers towards the Ghost Spiders' position and once again cast Dream of a Thousand Years.

Because the current Dream of a Thousand Years covers an extremely wide area, each use takes much longer. Just one perfect completion of Dream of a Thousand Years requires Xun Xiuyuan to use exotic beast value to restore his own state twice.

Therefore, using Dream of a Thousand Years for combat on such a large scale, besides him, no one else should even think about it.

Just as Xun Xiuyuan was frantically harvesting, sudden strands of spider silk shot out from the surrounding space, instantly wrapping Xun Xiuyuan like a zongzi.

These spider silks attacked Xun Xiuyuan directly by crossing space. By the time Xun Xiuyuan discovered them, he had already been hit and couldn't dodge.
