Under the tight binding of spider silk, Tang San's consciousness slowly returned to clarity from the chaos, feeling stiff all over, as if tightly wrapped in something.
When he struggled to open his eyes, the scene before him made him involuntarily gasp. He was tightly bound by a huge spider silk, surrounded by the nest of a Black Widow, with dim light that only vaguely revealed the surrounding walls woven from tough spider silk. The fierce Black Widow was lurking in a nearby corner, seemingly ready to pounce.
Tang San felt a sudden movement in his heart, quickly checked his own condition, and found that although he was bound, his weapons and personal items were still on him, which made him somewhat relieved. He carefully turned his head and saw Juna also trapped in the spider silk next to him.
Around them, there were also some trapped wild beasts struggling and howling in pain, but unable to break free from the binding of the spider silk. Tang San couldn't help but shudder at the thought of the formidable nature of the Black Widow's silk.
Juna gradually regained consciousness, her gaze somewhat bewildered. She looked at Tang San, and suddenly, a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes: "So we're not dead yet?" she murmured, her voice carrying an unmistakable sense of surprise.
Tang San looked at her with meaningful eyes and smiled faintly, "Should I call you Juna now, or Yunxuan?" There was a complex emotion in his voice.
Juna knew that she could no longer hide, so she answered sincerely, "I didn't mean to hide it from you. It's just that when I swallowed that Soul-devouring Pill at first, you looked like you wanted to kill me, so I didn't dare to say it."
Tang San appeared to understand and said gently, "At first, I was indeed a little angry, but later I thought, fortunately you brought me to this world, where I can realize my ideals."
He continued, "Furthermore, in the end, you didn't lay a hand on The head of Tang Sect and Elders. Just for this, I should thank you. Thank you for being magnanimous and sparing the people of Tang Sect."
Juna turned her head slightly, showing a hint of dissatisfaction, and replied, "I just don't have any feelings for that world, so I made that choice." Although she said that, Juna knew in her heart that if it weren't for Tang San, she might not have chosen to let them go.
Tang San looked at Juna and nodded slightly, "We need to find a way to escape from here quickly. It seems that this Black Widow wants to use us as food for its offspring."
Juna opened her eyes, seemingly fully awake. A sly glint flashed in her eyes as she said, "Want to escape from here? Simple, especially without the need to hide my strength. Ancient Vermilion Bird, appear!"
As soon as Juna spoke, a dazzling flame ignited in the darkness, and a beautiful vermilion bird flew out from the flames, instantly illuminating the entire dark cave.
At this moment, Tang San's gaze became sharp, he looked around as if searching for something. Suddenly, a hint of something unusual flashed in his eyes as he saw the glinting spider eyes in the distance in the darkness.
"Not good, it seems we have big trouble," Tang San said heavily.
Juna immediately became alert when she also saw those spider eyes.
She didn't hesitate anymore: "Quick, help us burn these spider silk cocoons and lead us out of this predicament!"
Juna ordered urgently. The Vermilion Bird seemed to understand, let out a cry, and then pounced towards the two people. Opening its mouth, it spewed out a raging flame, directly burning the spider silk to ashes. Tang San and Juna took the opportunity to break free from the restraints and regained their freedom.
However, the Vermilion Bird's actions also provoked the fury of the Black Widow. It swiftly pounced towards the Vermilion Bird, attempting to capture it, and a flash of killing intent passed through Juna's eyes.
Just as Juna was about to order the Vermilion Bird to kill Black Widow, Tang San suddenly grabbed her hand: "No, we just need to escape. This is the nest of Black Widow, survival is the law of nature. For years, Black Widow has been driven away by powerful soul beasts in the Star Forest, lacking sufficient food sources, their numbers have become increasingly scarce."
Juna was taken aback, but she quickly understood Tang San's meaning. She nodded, then ordered the Vermilion Bird to retract the flames, leaving enough flames to protect them as they left.
"Okay, let's go," she said, pulling Tang San and jumping onto the back of Zhuque. Zhuque spread its wings and flew high, taking them away from this dangerous place.
During the flight, they encountered Master, Shi Ya, Xiao Wu, and others. Everyone was very happy to see Tang San and Juna unharmed, especially when they saw Juna's mount, a phoenix-like Zhuque, which surprised them greatly.
Juna looked at everyone's smiling faces, and couldn't help but smile slightly. It had been a long time since she had felt this way. She glanced quietly at Tang San, feeling even more grateful. In this strange world, it was really nice to have such a reliable group of companions.
Once back on land, everyone quickly left Xing Dou Forest.
After seeing everyone off back to the academy, the next day Juna came alone to Xing Dou Forest.
Juna's level has reached level twenty, and this time coming to Xing Dou Forest, she is here to obtain its Second Soul Ring.
Just then, she suddenly felt a Powerful soul wave fluctuation coming from a distance. This fluctuation is very unique, as if it is filled with endless vitality.
"Suzaku, what is this...?" Juna asked excitedly.
Suzaku let out a loud cry, its eyes filled with anticipation.
"This is a soul beast that is suitable for me to use as the Second Soul Ring!" Juna felt delighted.
In no time, Juna felt the fluctuation of the soul power getting closer and closer, and the anticipation in her heart grew stronger. Suddenly, a rainbow-like beam of light streaked across the sky and landed in the nearby depths of the forest.
"That's it..." Juna felt a shock in her heart and locked eyes with Zhuque, both understanding that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Juna and Zhuque quickly ran towards the direction where the rainbow light was falling. Passing through the dense forest, they finally arrived at a small lake.
In the center of the lake, there is a small island with a giant tree standing on it. Under the tree, a rainbow-feathered phoenix is leisurely resting.
"Rainbow Phoenix!" Juna couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
This phoenix is not only exceptionally beautiful, but also an extremely rare soul beast, perfectly matching her soul weapon—Phoenix Seven-Colored Enchanting Eyes.
"This will be a tough battle, are you ready?" Suzaku looked at Juna with its emotional eyes.
"Of course, this is the necessary path for my growth!" Juna said with a determined expression on his face.
They slowly walked towards Rainbow Phoenix. Seeing them, Rainbow Phoenix spread its wings and soared high, emitting a melodious cry, as if alerting something.
"I come from Nirvana Phoenix clan, hoping to obtain your Soul Ring, and together we can fight against those evil forces!" Juna looked at Rainbow Phoenix with sincere eyes.
Rainbow Phoenix seemed unwilling, finally revealing its elegant and dignified appearance, intending to attack.
Juna and Zhuque immediately begin preparing for battle. Juna wields a celestial sword, while Zhuque transforms into a flaming shield that surrounds her. A life-and-death battle is about to unfold.
