Chapter 40: Lady Zhi. The Queen of Arachnids

Chapter 40: 40: Lady Zhi. The Queen of Arachnids

A moment later the Heavenly Beast Taming System rang aloud in his head.

[Congratulations on your cultivation breakthrough!]

[You have obtained a new title!]

[Stronger Than Steel!]

[Now that your leg bones have reached Black Diamond Body Constitution, your basic attack will inflict: +50% Basic Attack Damage | +25% Crit Chance | +100% Crit Damage.]

"Hah! This is just what I needed!" Ash exclaimed inwardly. "With this title, I can fight in both my Beast Form and Humanoid Form! Not only that, this title would also increase my chance to win against Cultivators whose body was enhanced beyond the comprehension of the Law of Heavens and Earth!"

"Splendid! Once I finish with my meditation, I will head out and test my new pair of legs!"

During his deep meditation, Ash could hear the faint moaning noises from the deeper part of this cave system. He opted to ignore them at first. Maybe some subterranean beasts are having a great time too in this rich Qi Energy cave system.

But then, it became more frequent and louder. Ash was snapped when the moaning voice echoed and reached his cultivation cave.

"God damn it! Whoever made those falling noises, quiet it down! I am meditating here!"

Startled by her Master’s sudden outburst, Ye Yinghui immediately apologized to him. She was talking from his Beast Taming Space through their mental link.

"I’m terribly sorry, my lord! I forgot to tell you that the majority of this cave system is owned by Lady Zhi, a Star Rank Immortal Beast! She was incredibly powerful, cunning, and merciless!"

"Lady Zhi?"

"Yes, my lord. Lady Zhi is an Arachne-Type Immortal Beast. She dwells from one cave to another, catching prey and mating with any males that have potent Yang Qi Energy! Unfortunately, tonight is her mating ritual."

"Well, that’s intriguing...So, in other words, is she having an orgy as we speak?"

"C-correct, my lord."

"Eh, interesting. Now I am curious."

"I suggest you to not go any closer to her lair."

"Why?"

"The reason being we are allowed to take refuge in her cave system is due to her lack of interest in weaklings and the crippled ones. She is a wise ruler, however, Lady Zhi herself warned me to not disturb her ritual. Now that you are fully recovered, I am afraid that she will come after your Pure Yang Qi instead."

"I mean, she can have it if she wants though... Of course, it will come with a price. Lead the way, Yinghui."

"Pardon?"

"Did you hear me?"

"Ah! Yes, my lord! Please follow me!"

*****

Ash and Yinghui cautiously trudged down the cave corridor. While Yinghui led the way down, Ash scanned the surroundings every now and then. Before long, they have arrived at the main shaft which would lead them to Lady Zhi’s main chamber.

Much to their surprise, the main chamber was very clean, Ash’s sharp hearing sense picked up the moaning voices even clearer than before.

Though he had expected some kinky action from this subterranean creature, he was aghast upon seeing a bunch of Arachnids were coupling with various beast species, they wouldn’t care as long as they could satiate their desire to copulate.

Suddenly, a series of eerie laughing voices resounded throughout the cave. Ash, focused his hearing to pinpoint the source but to no avail. He could hear them for every possible angle.

"Stay sharp, my lord. We are very close with Lady Zhi’s hatchling chamber." Yinghui remarked.

In the meantime, Ash was already on his wit’s end. He only wanted to see how the Queen Arachnids looked.

"Ah, fuck it! Imma head first!"

"Please wait, my lord. Don’t be reckless!"

Right after Min-ho stepped forward, dozens mindless spiderlings emerged from the crevices of the cave, each bared its fangs while inbound toward the two.

" Fall back!"

"Hmph! Die you pests!"

Ratatatata!

Ash and Yinghui retreated tactically, they kept attacking at those spiderlings until their claws were drenched with blood. With his Black Diamond Bones, these pesky spiders had no chance against the him! Within a minute and hundreds of kicks later, the entire spiderlings colony was decimated!

"Yuck! Their blood is so sticky and smells like a rotten egg. Euughhh, so itchy too!" Ash splattered the blood that stuck on his talons and face.

Curious with the chemistry of their blood, yinghui dragged a finger on the blood, feeling it, and took a quick sniff. "You better apply some antiseptic on your skin after this."

"Nah, I can do it later. I will be late for the party!"

The underground floor was now quieted down significantly after the previous fight. All of a sudden, Both of them could hear a conversation from multiple Arachnids.

"Ahhh, looks who is here..."

"He seems strong enough. Fufufu."

"Ahh, he smells so sweet and yet very hot, too."

"Should we welcome him, or kill him?

"Let’s welcome him, I want to see what he made of."

Afterward, another eerie voice resounded. This time, however, it carried absolute authority and sounded very dignified.

"We welcome thee, Lord Phoenix of The South. I have heard about you from miles away."

Ash, meanwhile, was smirking gleefully. "You heard that? The Queen of Arachnids herself invites me to her chamber!"

"This won’t end well, my lord."

"There’s only one way to find out."

Without further ado Ash pressed onward. The door which was weaved from webbings parted open, allowing Ash to enter to the main chamber.

There, he saw seven adults Arachnids who had attained their true forms. Their upper body resembled that of beautiful maidens. Flawless, their body curves were heavenly.

However, their lower body were still that of spiders. They were the perfect embodiment of lust, as if the Gods themselves cursed them with the demonic appearance as to lure any male beings into depravity!

Around those seven Arachnids, dozens of male beasts were laid randomly. Even from a glance, Ash could tell that their life force had been sucked dry. Nevertheless, the Arachnids were still kind enough to let them live a while longer for later use.

The most beautiful Arachnids descended down from her webbing, she landed gracefully before Ash and Yinghui.

"Greetings, Lady Zhi." Ash reciprocated her friendly gesture politely. "It’s my honour to be graced by your peerless beauty!"
