Chapter 865 Gourd Canyon
"You stay outside the canyon and wait for me; I’ll sneak in first to have a look," Su Chengyu said.
"Okay. You must be careful once you’re inside. Although only the Spider King is of the Demon King Realm, there are also many Demon Generals among the other ghost-face spiders. Be especially wary of their webs and venom."
Lin An also knew he had no strength to help Su Chengyu and could only quietly await good news outside the canyon.
Su Chengyu nodded slightly, casually setting up a barrier to protect Lin An, to keep her safe from wild beasts or minor monsters.
Su Chengyu concealed his breath and headed towards the canyon.
The canyon resembled an overturned gourd, its entrance quite narrow, bordered by cliffs on both sides. The farther inside, the more spacious it became. The area around the entrance was barren, devoid of any vegetation, all killed off by the venom of the ghost-face spiders.
The swamp outside the canyon was filled with dark green, sticky venom, bubbling as if boiling porridge. To enter the canyon, one must cross this deadly swamp, otherwise flying over from above would be the only option, a sure way to alert the ghost-face spiders to one’s presence.
Su Chengyu casually threw a rock into the swamp; the sturdy stone was immediately corroded and dissolved by the venom, a testament to the deadly nature of the ghost-face spiders’ poison. However, this toxic swamp couldn’t stop him. He concentrated, held his breath, and flew straight over the swamp, arriving at the entrance of the canyon.
Inside the canyon, Su Chengyu saw ghost-face spiders clinging to the cliff walls, not many, just over a dozen scattered around. But these spiders were enormous, each weighing over a thousand pounds, their eight legs thicker than human ones.
