Beyond the Veil of Folly

3. Spider Monster

In a world of cultivators, there are seven continents, namely Me, Ji, Ku, Hi, Bi, Ni, and Yu. The continent of Me is divided into six regions: Wahid, Itsnen, Tsalasa, Arba', Khomsa, and Sitta.

The Wahid region is split into six dominions, each led by a renowned family. They are the Ci, Lin, Ling, Sang, Ju, and Ang families, with the territory of the Ci family as the city center.

A cultivator is classified into seven levels:

1. Warrior

2. Knight

3. Soldier

4. Cavalier

5. General

6. Master

7. Legend

Creatures are categorized into three levels of ferocity:

1. Low

2. Medium

3. High

Each level must go through nine stages to ascend to the next level.

Every cultivator has seven meridian points that are closed. If someone can open one meridian point, they will ascend to the next level.

There is also a concept called mental strength. This power is the subconscious ability of a cultivator. The stronger the mental strength, the less likely their physical form will be controlled by an invading soul.

"Oh My...!" Renggin Ang gasped.

He quickly freed himself from the web that ensnared him. The boy lowered Ampy Ang from his back.

"Ampy Ang, help me find the spider's weak point!" Renggin yelled, slashing the web with a wind slash, and then boldly entered the spider's mouth.

"Fool! Why are you willingly becoming its meal?!" Ampy Ang shouted in frustration. "Huh!" She huffed.

The girl was splattered by the spider's venom gland. She had heard from her mother that the poison from the spider monster's gland would react half a day after contact with the poison.

Ampy Ang used the Eagle Eye technique to find the spider's weak point. Instantly, her eyes sparkled, emitting a golden light.

Meanwhile, Renggin Ang, who was inside the spider's belly, was confused and frantically trying to avoid the stomach acid that kept overflowing.

"No! Don't swallow me! Aaaaaa!"

In a desperate situation, Renggin Ang unleashed the Wind Sword technique. It turned out that this technique was able to break through the monster's back.

"Wow, amazing! I didn’t expect my technique to be this powerful," Renggin Ang exclaimed as he jumped out.

However, the monster was not dead yet. Instead, it became even more frenzied. The spider glared at Renggin Ang. The boy realized what was happening and started to run aimlessly.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The monster closed the cave entrance and ensnared Renggin Ang with its web. Renggin Ang was wrapped in the web like a cocoon.

"Aaaaaaargh! Damn spider, get away from me!" The web tightened around Renggin Ang, making it hard for him to breathe. He writhed like a caterpillar.

As the monster approached even closer, Renggin Ang jumped up and started to hop away from its pursuit. "Aaaa!" he screamed.

"I found it!" Ampy Ang suddenly said. "I have found its weak point."

“Tell me quickly, before this monster eats me!”

“The eyes! Pierce both eyeballs!”

“Wind slash!” Renggin Ang tore apart the net that enveloped him.

Then he turned around to face the monster.

“Wind sword!” Instantly, the wind gathered to form two swords floating above his hands. “Heaaaat!”

Whuuuuuus!

Renggin Ang shot the wind sword at the spider's eye.
