"Of course, everyone needs to know their place. It would be best if Lord Guard doesn't overstep his bounds."

Ling Bai's expression remained calm, but his words irked She Chong, who stared at Ling Bai's face with disdain and sneered, "Hiding behind words."

With that, he took the food the innkeeper respectfully presented and went upstairs.

She Chong, an Eighth Rank Soul Douluo, naturally noticed that Ling Bai was wearing an Ice Silkworm Mask. However, he could only tell that Ling Bai's current appearance was somewhat peculiar, like someone who had undergone plastic surgery-knowing they had had work done but not knowing what they originally looked like.

"What a pity..."

Ling Bai shook his head. From both a personal and Nine Treasures Crystal Tower perspective, befriending Princess Xu Jiujiu of the Star Luo Empire was clearly more beneficial than not. Without She Chong's vigilant defense, this would have been a perfect opportunity.

"Never mind, there will be more chances. Let's focus on completing the mission first."

Early the next morning, Ling Bai stepped out into the dawn, facing the cold frost. He officially entered the Yoyo Forest. The fresh air, mixed with the fragrance of plants, was invigorating. He stopped at the Chaos Line, the boundary between light and darkness.

The hardest part of the red-level mission was not the Snake Empress's formidable strength, nor the difficulty of capturing her alive, which was several times harder than killing her. The real challenge was finding the ten-thousand-year-old Medusa in the vast Yoyo Forest.

This was one of the reasons why Ling Bai decided to forgo using the Six-Winged Angel and instead use the Death Prison Spider Emperor.

"Spider Summoning."

As Ling Bai's soul power surged, pairs of crimson beast eyes lit up. Small magic spiders with bared fangs gathered densely, waiting for Ling Bai's commands.

"Find Medusa and the Petrified Soul Beast."

"Squeak! Squeak!"

The magic spiders scattered to carry out their orders. Ling Bai advanced along the Chaos Line. The scenery of the Yoyo Forest was unique, completely different from the Star Dou Forest. One side was warm and idyllic, while the other was dark and demonic, with light and darkness opposing each other without yielding.

Ling Bai had read ancient texts about the Yoyo Forest. It was said that this place was originally a normal soul beast forest until two super-century-old beasts were born. These two beasts, one light and one dark, regarded each other as mortal enemies. Due to their power, the soul beast forest gradually transformed into the Yoyo Forest.

The Snake Empress Medusa prefers darkness and would not live in the Eternal Day. Therefore, Ling Bai focused his search on the Chaos Line and the Eternal Night, leaving ten percent of the magic spiders to explore the Eternal Day just in case.

Information from the magic spiders in all directions continuously fed back to his mind. The Death Prison Spider Emperor's three ultimate abilities, including the Spider King Sense, were activated. With each step Ling Bai took, wave-like ripples spread out, capturing every subtle change in the Yoyo Forest.

Using the Spider King Sense to predict danger in advance, Ling Bai actively avoided most troublesome soul beasts. When he could not avoid them, he dealt with them. He maintained a steady, moderate pace, ensuring his soul power remained full as he carefully explored the Yoyo Forest for most of the day.

"Sigh, Medusa..."

The Yoyo Forest has no distinction between day and night, and people who stay here for too long gradually lose their sense of time. After a whole day of searching without any results, Ling Bai couldn't help but feel anxious. However, the more anxious he was, the more he needed to remain calm. He stopped under a towering ancient tree, took out a meat bun from the Shrek Inner Court canteen made by Uncle Mo, and the rising temperature in his palm made the bun emit a rich aroma.

Just as he took a couple of bites, Ling Bai suddenly stomped on the tree trunk and leaped into the air. The next second, sharp black spikes shot up from the ground. He dodged and weaved, but the black spikes pursued him relentlessly, determined to kill him!

A massive spider pounced at Ling Bai, its body much larger than an ordinary round table, with a diameter of over three meters. Its dark black carapace was covered in gray patterns, and its bloated abdomen stored a large amount of silk.

A cunning assassin, the Cave Spider!

The Cave Spider and the Man-Faced Demon Spider are considered the best among spider soul beasts. However, the Cave Spider's body is far less robust than the Man-Faced Demon Spider, and it lacks the latter's deadly neurotoxin. Its specialty is setting traps, ambushing, and killing!

Looking at the increasingly large Cave Spider in his field of vision, Ling Bai couldn't help but laugh. What kind of world is this? Both the Death Spider Emperor and the Soul Devouring Spider Emperor are far superior to the Cave Spider. How dare this five-thousand-year-old Cave Spider dare to ambush the fusion of the two spider emperors, the Death Prison Spider Emperor!?

Ling Bai simply landed and waited for the Cave Spider to make its move.

The Cave Spider wouldn't miss this opportunity. Black light flashed on the ground, and countless spider silk threads surged out, instantly suppressing Ling Bai's body. It was like a closed prison made of spider silk, trapping Ling Bai inside.

This time, the Cave Spider's silk was even thicker and stronger than the black spikes it had previously released. The spider silk was coated with a special adhesive secreted by the Cave Spider, which hardened upon contact with air, making the spider silk as strong as tempered steel, forming an unbreakable prison!

Soul Skill, Spider Web Cage!

The Cave Spider leaves miniature spider webs around its body and can activate them at any time to form a prison. The Spider Web Cage has no warning signs when activated, and even the strongest soul masters can fall victim to it if caught off guard!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The Spider Web Cage succeeded, and the eight pale blue eyes on the Cave Spider's abdomen glowed with bloodlust. It crawled to Ling Bai's front in a few steps, and then it saw the most terrifying scene in its five-thousand-year life!

Behind the seemingly meek human soul master, a towering, sinister, and eerie magic spider shadow rose. The eight crimson eyes seemed to contain mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The mere presence of a tiny bit of its aura made the Cave Spider feel weak all over, with an instinctive urge to bow and submit!

"Squeak... squeak..."

The Cave Spider collapsed like a pile of mud. The spider emperor's pressure from the Death Prison Spider Emperor made it lethargic and its soul power scattered. If it were a human, it would have rolled its eyes and foamed at the mouth.

The Death Prison Spider Emperor's terrifying toxins were even more potent than the Death Spider Emperor's. Ling Bai lightly touched the prison, and the Cave Spider's pride, its spider silk, instantly turned into a pool of foul-smelling toxic water.

A burst of soul power entered the Cave Spider's body, and after a few seconds of writhing, it fell still. A Soul Ring emitting a faint purple light floated around it. The eyes of the Death Prison Spider Emperor's shadow lit up, and the flesh, soul, and Soul Ring were all its food. It seemed eager to break free from Ling Bai's control and feast.

Times have changed. With Ilex's soul in command and the absorption of the Golden Tree's power for three months, Ling Bai could easily control the Death Prison Spider Emperor. Despite the Cave Spider's resistance, he forcefully retracted it.

"Come when called and leave when dismissed, that's what a good soul skill should be." Ling Bai smiled in satisfaction, then his eyebrows raised slightly. "Hmm? A Petrified Soul Beast!" About eight kilometers away, a magic spider had found a large number of petrified soul beast bodies, which could very well be Medusa's lair!

At the same time, the magic spiders in the Eternal Day region had also made a discovery!

They had encountered Xu Jiujiu and She Chong, who were hunting a ten-thousand-year-old light-type soul beast. Based on the soul beast's escape path, they were heading toward the Petrified Soul Beast's location!
