Chapter 31 Killing the Mutated Candlefire Spider Leader, the White-Scaled Fish Breaks Through!
The candlefire radiating intense heat had yet to approach the White-scaled Fish when it swiftly dodged out of the way.
Despite the power behind the attack, if it failed to land, it was meaningless.
Following Bai Zian’s instructions, the White-scaled Fish ignored the provocations of the Mutated Candlefire Spider Leader and instead focused on attacking the regular Candlefire Spiders.
This was a crucial step. Before the true battle began, it was essential to clear out the weaker enemies.
If the White-scaled Fish ended up in a stalemate with the Mutated Spider Leader, it could fall prey to these lesser spiders. Therefore, clearing the battlefield beforehand was necessary.
Thus, the White-scaled Fish paid no heed to the Spider Leader’s attacks, continuing to strike at the ordinary spiders.
The number of Candlefire Spiders rapidly dwindled.
In no time, the nest was devoid of any regular spiders, all slain by the White-scaled Fish.
Only the Mutated Spider Leader remained standing.
At this point, the Mutated Spider Leader was utterly enraged.
This damned white fish has slaughtered all my underlings. How can i tolerate such a thing?
Furious, the Spider Leader launched a frenzied attack on the White-scaled Fish.
Swoosh!
Several strands of blazing red web shot from the Spider Leader’s mouth, attempting to ensnare the fish.
The White-scaled Fish evaded the attack with a quick movement, and the red threads hit the ground, instantly melting a rock and leaving a deep groove.
This was the Spider Leader’s trump card — the Blue Skill: Molten Thread Slash.
These threads were imbued with terrifying heat, capable of easily melting and cutting through hard materials.
Had the White-scaled Fish been struck, it would have suffered significant damage.
However, the fish’s speed made the likelihood of being hit extremely low.
While dodging the attacks, the White-scaled Fish retaliated against the Spider Leader, using a more powerful skill this time: Water Flow Rupture.
This was part of Bai Zian’s strategy. Under the barrage of Water Flow Rupture, wounds began to appear on the Spider Leader’s body, dealing considerable damage, especially to its legs, which the fish targeted specifically.
This was part of Bai Zian’s plan to prevent the Spider Leader from escaping. After all, it was rare to encounter such a mutated spirit beast, and Bai Zian would not let it slip away.
As long as the White-scaled Fish maintained its momentum, victory seemed inevitable.
However, as Bai Zian observed from afar, his brows furrowed slightly. He wasn’t entirely pleased because the battle seemed too easy.
Could it really be so simple for the White-scaled Fish to defeat a bronze-level mutant spirit beast?
“Wait a minute… this spider is cunning. It’s devised a plan!” Bai Zian suddenly had an epiphany.
Unbeknownst to him, the webs inside the spider’s nest had gradually increased in number. These were the remnants of the Spider Leader’s previous attacks.
Although the White-scaled Fish could dodge the attacks with ease, each time the Spider Leader struck, more webs were left behind.
Over time, the webs had nearly covered the entire nest. The White-scaled Fish’s strength lay in its speed, which allowed it to evade the Spider Leader’s attacks.
However, with too many webs, the fish’s speed would be greatly hindered. When that happened, the Spider Leader would have a clear shot at it.
This was exactly the Spider Leader’s plan.
During the earlier fight, it had already identified the White-scaled Fish’s strengths.
Hence, it devised a scheme to use its webs to limit the fish’s speed. Once the webs completely covered the nest, the fish would be like a trapped turtle, becoming the spider’s meal.
“White-scaled Fish, stop playing around! Use Yin Water Corrosion and finish it off!” Bai Zian shouted loudly, abandoning any concern for being overheard as he ordered the fish.
He had realized that the Spider Leader’s plan was about to succeed, so the only option was to end the battle swiftly.
He commanded the White-scaled Fish to unleash its most powerful skill: Yin Water Corrosion. This was a purple-tier skill, with devastating power far beyond what the White-scaled Fish could normally handle.
After using it, the fish would enter a state of exhaustion and require time to recover.
But given the current situation, Bai Zian couldn’t afford to worry about that. If they could kill the Spider Leader in one blow, the fish could rest as long as it needed.
If not, they would lose. Bai Zian was pinning all his hopes on this one move.
Although puzzled by Bai Zian’s sudden change in strategy, the White-scaled Fish never disobeyed his orders. So, it unleashed Yin Water Corrosion.
A strange water column appeared in front of the fish, unlike the previous water-based skills.
This water was not clear but black, like ink, exuding a terrifying, bone-chilling aura. It seemed that just a drop would consume everything.
In the next moment, the White-scaled Fish launched the attack. The black water column, radiating an aura of death, shot directly at the Spider Leader.
The Spider Leader’s expression changed dramatically.
Its instincts screamed that it must not come into contact with this black water column, or its life would be in danger. It tried to dodge, but its injured legs refused to move.
Due to its earlier injuries, its legs had been too severely damaged to function, leaving it helpless as the black water column struck its body.
In that instant, the Spider Leader’s life force was gradually consumed by the dark water.
Hiss!
With a final, anguished screech, the Mutated Candlefire Spider Leader fell, lifeless. The battle was won, and the White-scaled Fish had emerged victorious.
