Chapter 1888: Chapter 1884: Tang Xinhai Withdraws

"Don’t act rashly, you..."

Zhuge Guang’s face changed dramatically, but he hadn’t finished speaking.

"So fast."

Tang Ming and the others were stunned by Tang Xinhai’s speed.

"This guy was still hiding his strength before, he’s definitely not a low-level Martial General."

Jin Zizai stared intently at Tang Xinhai’s back with a serious expression.

As soon as Tang Xinhai rushed into the square, a black light immediately shot from the sky, which he easily dodged.

Then beams of black light continuously shot at Tang Xinhai, all of which he perfectly avoided.

Seeing Tang Xinhai getting closer to the stone pillar, Tang Ming and the others grew anxious. At this rate, if Tang Xinhai destroys the stone pillar, he can be the first to grab the Ancient Poison Crystal Core. With his formidable strength, there would be no chance for anyone else.

Once the Ancient Poison Crystal Core falls into Tang Xinhai’s hands, even if the people present joined forces, they probably wouldn’t be able to take it back.

"Shao Wuchou, get ready to act."

Zhuge Guang shouted with a serious face.

"Alright! Attack him or the object?"

Shao Wuchou immediately took his stance, aiming his gun.

"Nonsense, obviously attack the object. We can’t let the Ancient Poison Crystal Core appear in the world."

Zhuge Guang shouted angrily.

"Hey, I’m the leader here, why aren’t any of you following orders?"

Tang Ming roared in dissatisfaction.

Tang Xinhai acted on his own accord, Zhuge Qing issued commands, and everyone else was eager to snatch the Ancient Poison Crystal Core, completely ignoring his leadership.

"The Ancient Poison Crystal Core is mine."

Seeing the stone pillar right in front, Tang Xinhai was overjoyed and raised his fist, brimming with immense energy, striking hard at the nearest stone pillar.

"Roar!"

At that moment, a hideous roar sounded. A shadow suddenly appeared on the stone pillar about to be struck, followed by countless black threads dropping from the sky, entangling Tang Xinhai’s arm.

"Damn! What a huge spider!"

Tang Ming was stunned by the scene before his eyes. A giant spider climbed down from the pillar and spat silk at Tang Xinhai.

"This..."

Tang Xinhai’s face changed dramatically, struggling to break free from the spider silk while retreating, and simultaneously faced with countless black lights shooting from the stone pillar, he instantly fell into an extremely awkward situation.

"Damn it, I can’t break free."

Tang Xinhai cried out in terror, his arm entangled, greatly diminishing his agility, and even with his Cultivation, he couldn’t break the spider silk.

Tang Xinhai was struck several times by the falling black lights from the sky. If not for his strong Cultivation, an ordinary Martial General would have likely perished.

"Rescue him! Shao Wuchou, attack that monster."

Tang Ming shouted with a grave expression, "Zhuge Guang, use fire to break the spider silk. Bai Shengqi, Hua Yingjie, drive the monster army to attack the formation, dispersing the Great Formation’s attack power."

"Okay!"

Understanding the crisis, everyone acted without any nonsense.

Shao Wuchou aimed his gun and shot furiously at the giant spider.

Zhuge Guang quickly performed the Sealing and summoned a fireball, sending it toward the spider silk around Tang Xinhai’s arm, while Hua Yingjie drove the monster army to charge, leaving only Bai Shengqi and Jin Zizai inactive.

Bai Shengqi didn’t want to take action, hoping instead that Tang Xinhai would get killed, and as a tank, Jin Zizai couldn’t help at this moment, just stood by awkwardly.

Under Tang Ming’s command, everyone began the rescue operation for Tang Xinhai.

Tang Ming guessed correctly, though the giant spider’s silk was exceptionally tough, even Tang Xinhai couldn’t break it, it feared fire.

When Zhuge Guang used a fireball remotely to burn the spider silk, Tang Xinhai immediately regained his freedom and frantically fled outward.

Seeing Tang Xinhai trying to escape, the giant spider instinctively wanted to chase him, but was suppressed back by Shao Wuchou’s firepower.

Even so, with the power of Shao Wuchou’s spear, it only prevented the poisonous spider from pursuing. The Gang-breaking Bullet hit the spider causing considerable effects, yet it couldn’t penetrate its body, showing how tough this giant spider’s body was.

Once free, Tang Xinhai dodged the black lights from the sky while desperately fleeing, successfully jumping out of the square.

Only then did the group stop, while Tang Xinhai was in a miserable state, his clothes corroded into rags, his entire arm turning black.

"Damn it, are you crazy! Even though you’re strong, we had an alliance, and you acted on your own, looking for death?"

Tang Ming shouted angrily at Tang Xinhai, very dissatisfied with Tang Xinhai’s behavior of wanting to keep the spoils to himself.

"Indeed a bit excessive, I didn’t expect your strength to exceed ours so much. If properly used, it could’ve been incredibly beneficial, but now..."

Zhuge Guang also looked at Tang Xinhai with dissatisfaction.

"Exactly, and we even had to save you, what a scumbag."

Bai Shengqi followed up in condemnation.

"Shut up!"

Tang Ming coldly looked at Bai Shengqi, "Everyone was involved in the rescue, yet you stood by doing nothing. You’re no better."

"You bastard, you..."

"What are you trying to do?"

Hua Yingjie immediately stepped in front of Tang Ming, glaring at Bai Shengqi unfavorably.

"Sorry, it’s my fault. Thank you all for saving my life, I will definitely repay you."

Tang Xinhai clutched his arm, gritting his teeth in gratitude.

"Stop with the useless words, how’s your injury?"

Tang Ming said as he wanted to step forward to check.

"I can handle it myself."

Tang Xinhai stepped back, sweating heavily as he looked at the others, "However, I’m now poisoned and severely injured, unable to assist further. But I can responsibly tell you, even with my strength, I couldn’t withstand those black light attacks. For you low-level martial masters, entering will mean certain death—this is the result I risked my life to find out."

"The Four Symbols Mother-Child Formation indeed is powerful, and I hadn’t finished explaining when you already charged in. Surviving was pure luck."

Zhuge Guang shook his head speechlessly at Tang Xinhai.

"I was wrong! I’m withdrawing from this operation. I can no longer pose a threat to you; I must find a place to heal. Farewell."

Without wasting words, as soon as he finished speaking, Tang Xinhai held onto his arm and limped away into the distance.

"That guy actually ran away!"

Tang Ming watched Tang Xinhai’s back in surprise.

"His strength has been exposed, and severely injured as well. If he stayed, we’d definitely be wary of him, maybe even join forces to take him down. Leaving is the wisest decision right now."

Zhuge Guang analyzed calmly.

"That guy is so pitiful! He ought to have been the strongest among us, but who’d have thought he’d end up like this."

Jin Zizai sighed with emotion.
