The water dragon passed through the web and was carved into pieces by the threads, failing to affect Lolth at all.
The lethality of flowing water had always been limited unless he concentrated all of its power onto his daemon core like right at the beginning, and only then would it be possible to injure her. Li Qingshan was bold enough to use this move again, but it would only achieve those effects in a surprise attack. If she were prepared, he would not even have enough time to cry if she directly caught the daemon core.
As for directly controlling the water to attack her, the effects would be truly feeble. In Lolth’s eyes, this was clearly his final struggle. As long as she repaired the final strand, she would be able to do whatever she wanted with him.
Boom!
The water dragon had been carved into pieces, but thousands of tonnes of water still collided violently against the ceiling of the cavern with great force.
This was Li Qingshan’s true target.
After Cobweb city had been carved into pieces, the unbelievably large cavern had lost its most important pillar of support. If it were not for the night roamers who constantly reinforced the walls in the past millennium, the entire cavern would have collapsed from its own weight a long time ago.
The collision this time was like the final straw on the camel’s back.
Rumble! As if the earth was roaring furiously, a huge crack spread out like lightning, yes also weaving together like a spider web.
Thousands of tonnes of earth collapsed.
“Do you think you can avoid death like this?” Lolth casually waved her hand, and the poisonous whip shattered a few boulders falling towards her. The other boulders were easily carved into pieces by the fine threads just like the water dragon.
And, her threads were an entity of their own. The destruction of the surrounding walls did not affect them. The web was her absolute domain.
Li Qingshan paid no attention to her. He produced a bellow that revelled in joy, cheering for this natural sight of earth crumbling.
The rock and soil fell down, and the water level rose rapidly, swallowing Li Qingshan in the blink of an eye.
The cheering vanished. The spirit turtle’s figure appeared around Li Qingshan in the water, but it had never been so clear before.
The water was his world.
The spirit turtle suppressed, sinking to the bottom.
All of the threads pulled downwards with him, moaning from almost ripping.
Lolth’s face changed drastically. She never thought he would still be able to put up a struggle even at a time like this. She only required one thread to seal him off for good, but looking at the situation, the other threads would rip before she could fix the last thread.
However, if she returned now to subdue him, it would take quite the time before she could make his death absolute. As long as there was a hole in the web, he would continue to struggle.
Faced with a dilemma, Lolth’s face twisted viciously as she ordered, “Dragonsnail, stop him!”
Chapter 518: You've Offended Me and You Still Want to Leave | Legend of the Great Sage
An invisible domain expanded, and immediately, Li Qingshan’s struggle slowed down. If it were not for his experience with Dragonsnail’s ambush, he would have been stumped for a moment as to what had happened.
This was not merely an issue of speed. When his thought process slowed down, he struggled to enter a state of mental intricacy, which prevented him from unleashing the limits of his strength. As the circulation of his daemon qi slowed down, the Spirit Turtle Suppresses the Seas lost the pressure from before. Although he could still maintain it, the spider web gradually recovered its original shape, no longer sagging downwards anymore.
Lolth followed the principle of doing everything she could to kill her prey. There was no concept of a fair battle. Right from the beginning, she had gotten Dragonsnail to hide in the surroundings so that he could strike at any time, to prevent Li Qingshan from fleeing with the wings of wind if he refused to enter the web.
Li Qingshan immediately understood why the spirit turtle’s daemon core warned him of such great danger. Dragonsnail’s innate ability was truly strange and powerful. A clash between the powerful could be decided in a single moment. If his speed suddenly decreased by thirty percent, he would become a sitting duck.
“Let’s see what other moves you have!”
Lolth stared at Li Qingshan viciously, only to discover he had become overjoyed instead of surprised, breaking into great laughter.
“What are you laughing for?” Lolth asked in bewilderment, but she did not slow down at all as she repaired the net.
“I’m laughing at you for bringing about your own doom. If you hadn’t called someone else, I’d really be quite embarrassed!”
As soon as Li Qingshan finished speaking, there were several rumbles, and the earth flew into the air. Twenty-one Skull Prayer Beads emerged together from all directions of the cavern, turning into huge, vicious Skeleton Demons in the air. Their sharp teeth chattered together like eerie laughter as their eye sockets all burned with pure-white flames. They ignored everything else, directly tearing at the web.
Lolth’s expression changed. She could not sense the presence of the Skeleton Demons, but a dangerous, terrifying aura clearly enveloped her.
With a flash, she had already arrived behind a Skeleton Demon. She raised her leg and swept it violently, directly sending the Skeleton Demon flying and crashing into the wall loudly.
In that instant, her figure appeared at various locations of the web, like over a dozen clones had appeared. The whip moved with her, dancing like a venomous dragon.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Like a string of thunder, the huge Skeleton Demons were sent flying by her as if they could not pose a threat to her at all.
However, the Skeleton Demon she had kicked away first had already emerged from the wall, persevering with the destruction of the web without the slightest injury.
The Skeleton Demons that the whip had sent flying all climbed up as well. They were riddled with dark marks, but the marks actually seemed like they were unable to seep any deeper. Singed by the Samādhi Flames of White Bone, the toxins had been purged.
“What are these!?”
Lolth’s expression became uglier and uglier. These were the skeleton monsters under the influence of Dragonsnail’s ability. They had already become much more sluggish. If they managed to recover their original speed, how vicious would they be?
The Skeleton Demons climbed up tirelessly, destroying the web. Lolth darted around and not a single Skeleton Demon could withstand a strike from her.
However, she rapidly depleted her daemon qi. She began showing signs of exhaustion before long, and her breathing became rather ragged.
Cling! Clang! Clung! Cling! The threads snapped one by one.
Li Qingshan could move his arms now. Lolth suddenly looked back, and her gaze burned with spite.
“Do you think just summoning these monsters will let you escape?”
She actually stopped worrying about the web entirely. The poisonous whip extended over. The power of the net still subdued him, and under the influence of Dragonsnail’s ability, he obviously could not react in time. The whip wrapped around him firmly.
Li Qingshan let out a sigh. There sure was a lot of binding and tying in this battle, all kinds of S&M play!
As long as I break out of the encirclement of these bone monsters and take him out of this region of water, I’ll still have the upper hand! Lolth dragged Li Qingshan away with this thought in mind.
Boom!
A huge snail shell smashed through the rock and fell into the cavern. There were markings that corresponded to a large swathe of cracks on the side of the snail shell, having been smashed in forcefully.
