Chapter 664: A Real Battle (II)

The giant stone spider wasn’t fast but each of its eight limbs were like small mountains as they swung around. Every time it struck the ground, it would blast out waves of shattered rock and choking dust. It could easily lift boulders the size of horses and throw them like it was nothing.

Bei Yingluo was barely holding on. She ducked and dodged while stabbing at the beast’s limbs. They were like pillars of stone and her spear could only leave small scratches. Although her weapon was strong, she was too weak to fully utilize its power. It could not be broken by the spider’s attacks but her own attacks were as effective as tickling it.

Still, she pressed on.

She swung her heavy spear left and right and stabbed with all of her strength. Her opponent was so strong it was like sparring against her senior sisters. Except, this spider did not know the concept of holding back.

As the fight dragged on, she suffered more and more injuries. Her hands were bruised from holding onto the spear while trying to block massive flying boulders. She had several cuts on her cheeks from razor-sharp rock shards. Her clothes were also starting to turn into tatters as she was battered by the beast’s spiritual aura.

“Damn it!”

She struck out with her spear but it only managed to leave behind a small hole in the spider’s stony carapace. The spear felt so heavy but she couldn’t lighten it any further. Her whole body ached and she was about to faint.

The concept of a Mind Focusing Realm cultivator fighting an opponent at the Spirit Initiate Realm was already an improbable concept. One side could utilize spiritual energy to protect their bodies and also empower their attacks. The other side could only utilize some tricks of the mind to improve their physical capabilities. It was an entire realm and it was just too difficult.

“Yingluo! Let us help!” Bei Yujing shouted over the noise of the battle.

Bei Yingluo shook her head as she lifted herself up once more with the support of her spear, “No, first aunt, don’t. This is my master’s mission for me. I have to keep going!”

She lightened her spear a little and once again attacked.

The giant stone spider roared and swung its thick limbs around like battering rams.

Fourth Aunt Be Jixiang was quick and agile. She was able to occupy four of the beast’s limbs while still holding her ground. She also didn’t let it run and constantly moved to cut off its path back up the cliff.

Fifth Aunt Bei Shuang was tall and slender but her physique hid a lot of innate strength. Her attacks were more like a metal hammer crashing down than a slender spear. She attacked the spider’s head, blinding its eyes and smashing its fangs into dust.

Tenth Aunt Bei Yifang was short and petite. She was even quicker than the fourth aunt and had managed to climb onto the spider’s huge back. She stabbed away at this vulnerable spot even as the spider bucked around wildly to try and throw her off.

The four Bei Clan women worked together and made quick work of the spider. After only a few rounds, it collapsed and let out its last breath. Its limbs curled up and it almost looked like a jagged boulder from a distance. The dumb beast had been fooled by Bei Yingluo’s weak cultivation and had left the safety of the cliffs. On flat ground, it was easy prey.

“Great! Start a fire! We’re having roasted spider legs for lunch!” Bei Yujing shouted.

“Yeah!”
