“Here’s my chance!”
Meng Lei wielded the Gods-Slaying Spear and stabbed it straight into the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor’s eyes. With a spurt, the Gods-Slaying Spear went all the way in.
Screech!
The Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor let out a shrill cry. It looked as if the intense pain would cause it to go berserk any moment.
Meng Lei was unaffected, however. He appeared at its abdomen again and shouted, “Where are you, Gods-Slaying Spear?!”
Whoosh!
The Gods-Slaying Spear transformed into a stream of light and returned to Meng Lei’s hand. With the spear in his grip, Meng Lei stabbed it forcefully into the Magical Beast, and then, he dragged it across with great force.
Rip!
Amid spine-chilling sounds of something being ripped, a deep fissure was slashed through the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor’s abdomen.
Splurt!
Foul-smelling scarlet-red blood sprayed about like a waterfall. Meng Lei sneered, and a ten-meter-long thunder arrow instantly appeared.
It was the Eighth-Grade Spell, Thunderbolt Light Arrow!
“Go!”
Meng Lei casually hurled it forward. The Thunderbolt Light Arrow cut through the air and stabbed accurately into the fissure.
“Your skin may be incredibly tough, but I don’t believe that your guts are just as tough!”
Meng Lei’s form retreated in an explosive burst of speed. Just as he dodged, the Thunderbolt Light Arrow that had shot into the fissure exploded with a loud boom. As the deafening explosion rang out, the light from lightning spilled everywhere freely, and blood sprayed about. A huge pit was blasted out of the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor’s abdomen.
Splash!
Together with blood and bits of flesh, brightly-colored innards and internal organs came smashing down onto the ground, emitting dull bams as they did so. A shocking stench rushed toward Meng Lei, and he almost threw up his meal from the night before.
“What the heck?” Meng Lei quickly held his hand over his nose and mouth and retreated swiftly. “Has that thing been eating sh*t or what? It stinks!”
The consecutive attacks had obviously heavily injured the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor. Its eight legs scrabbled at its internal organs, trying to stuff the foul-smelling organs back into its abdomen.
However, with such a huge hole there, how was it supposed to stuff them back?
Even after half a day of efforts spent in vain, it didn’t manage to stuff the internal organs back inside. On the contrary, its stamina even depleted at a faster rate. Its body became weaker and weaker, while its roars turned softer and softer.
At last, the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor collapsed onto the ground, gasping for air intermittently. Its eyes also began to dull and glaze over, looking as though it was on the brink of death.
“Haha, I’ve succeeded!”
Meng Lei appeared on top of a large tree and watched the dozens of meters tall massive creature that was slumped on the ground, his blood boiling in excitement and agitation.
He had actually killed the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor, a Saint Domain Magical Beast!
“I… can kill even a Saint Domain now?” Meng Lei murmured to himself, feeling as though he was in a dream.
“Brat, you’ve actually managed to kill the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor!” Ol’ Amos exclaimed as he emerged.
He examined the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor that was barely breathing anymore as he twisted his beard, also finding himself in disbelief. He remarked, “Even though you did use a divine weapon like the Gods-Slaying Spear, I am still truly impressed that you managed to kill it.”
“Haha, it was just luck. Luck!”
Meng Lei let out a couple of loud laughs. Then, the Gods-Slaying Spear flew out of nowhere and stabbed wildly at the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor’s head. Although that thing was already at death’s door, who knew how long it would take before it would really breathe its last?
Meng Lei felt awfully insecure looking at his starkly empty Wealth, so he desperately needed gold coins. Many, many gold coins!
Stab, stab, stab!
A series of mad stabbings later, the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor’s head turned into a sieve, riddled with innumerable holes. It was only then that the powerful Saint Domain Magical Beast died with great grievance amid feelings of indignation and humiliation.
It really was filled with great indignation.
It, a high and mighty Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor, had immediately annihilated its eternal foe, the Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ants when it had only just broken through to the Saint Domain realm. It had been in high and vigorous spirits, ready to achieve great things!
Who would have expected that things would go downhill at its peak?
It had only just ascended to the peak of its spider life and hadn’t even begun to enjoy its life, yet this had to happen. Not only did it not manage to wipe out the remnants of the Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ants, but it had even lost its life.
It really fulfilled the meaning behind the saying, “Life is unpredictable; who knows which would come first—tomorrow, or an accident?”
“Ding! 1 Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor killed. 5.2 billion gold coins gained!”
A system notification appropriately rang out at this point. The cold, emotionless voice sounded just like music to Meng Lei’s ears, making him feel as if he was intoxicated.
Hehe! Although it was dangerous, my gamble paid off! Adding the extra 5 billion from the magic core to these 5.2 billion gold coins, that makes it 10 billion gold coins!
And that stinky carcass! I’ve struck it big, struck it big…

With the end of the battle, peace and quiet were restored in the forest.
A campfire continued to blaze. On the ground, a short distance away quietly laid a massive object as tall as a building more than a dozen floors tall—the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor’s carcass.
Meng Lei admired its carcass as he munched away on a fragrant pig trotter, carefree and happy.
Although he had taken a risk in killing the Underground Cave Magical Spider Emperor, it had brought him handsome rewards and benefits.
The first
