As the Spider Queen dealt with the Blue Silver Vines, Lin Yongming and Bibidong attacked her simultaneously from the left and right.

The Spider Queen remained calm, blocking Lin Yongming's attack with her sickle while her six spider legs tangled with Bibidong's Death Spider legs.

"Seeing her up close, she looks even more similar. Those eyes, that high nose bridge, and those lips..." The Spider Queen ignored Lin Yongming's attack, instead focusing her gaze on Bibidong.

At the same time, her six spider legs only defended against Bibidong's attacks without countering.

"Fourth Soul Skill: Blue Silver Prison!" Blue Silver Emperor, seeing the Spider Queen fending off the two, seized the opportunity to attack. The fragments of vines that had embedded themselves into the ground earlier now rose around the Spider Queen.

Seeing this, Lin Yongming and Bibidong took a few steps back.

"How is this possible? What kind of Blue Silver Grass is this!" The Spider Queen exclaimed in disbelief as layers of Blue Silver Grass surrounded her, cutting off all light.

"Not good!" Instantly, the Spider Queen realized the danger and soon felt her soul power intensifying.

Outside, Lin Yongming and Bibidong both recognized this as a rare opportunity to strike, so they simultaneously activated their sixth soul rings.

"Sixth Soul Skill: Heavenly Thunder Wave Sword!" Lin Yongming plunged his Thunder Blade into the ground, and the lightning transformed into a serpent-like chain, striking the Spider Queen trapped in the Blue Silver Prison.

This was the first time Lin Yongming had used Heavenly Thunder Wave Sword since obtaining his sixth soul ring. Originally, the thunderous chains could attack six people at once, but now there was only one target.

"Sixth Soul Skill: Purple Wing Scythe Slash!" Bibidong's sixth soul skill came from the Purple Wing Spider. Behind her, the Purple Wing Spider's legs transformed into six massive, three-meter-long light blades, slashing toward the Spider Queen.

Boom!

In an instant, under the combined attack of the two, the Blue Silver Prison shattered, and the Spider Queen, caught in the center, was engulfed in a cloud of dust. The surrounding area was left barren, with rocks and sand flying everywhere.

"How is it? Did we kill her?" Bibidong asked quickly.

"No, I can sense her rapid breathing. She's only slightly injured," Lin Yongming replied.

"Right. My Blue Silver Grass tells me she hasn't released her Martial Soul Avatar yet," Blue Silver Emperor said as she stepped closer.

Soon, the dust settled, revealing the Spider Queen crouching on the ground. Her armor had shattered, and three of her six spider legs were broken. The two women also noticed that her mask had fallen off, revealing a pale face.

It was the kind of pale that comes from years without sunlight, but her features were delicate. However, what marred her beauty was a purple mark on the left side of her face, resembling a spider.

On the right side of her face, near her eye, were two scars. Her hair, which had been tied up, now hung loose. A trail of blood ran down the corner of her mouth, making her look like a sickly woman as she laughed maniacally.

"Good, good. Three Soul Emperors working together actually managed to injure me. It's been a long time since I've felt the taste of injury," the Spider Queen said, licking the blood from her lips instead of wiping it away.

"But this is as far as you go. Let me show you the difference between having a Martial Soul Avatar and not having one."

"Seventh Soul Skill: Devouring Soul Spider Emperor Avatar!" The Spider Queen roared, her seventh soul ring glowing. Her body was enveloped in a sickly green light, and a massive shadow appeared before the trio.

As the dark green mist dissipated, a nearly ten-meter-tall giant spider emerged.

A once beautiful woman had now transformed into an ugly, monstrous spider. Her arms had become massive front spider legs, larger than the other six.

In her Martial Soul Avatar state, the previously broken spider legs had completely healed. Her form was now a grotesque fusion of a human head and a spider's body.

"Ugh... so ugly. I will never release my Death Spider Emperor's Martial Soul Avatar," Bibidong said, looking at the Spider Queen's transformation with disgust. At this moment, she even felt disdain for her own Death Spider Emperor martial soul.

"It is indeed ugly, but there's no denying it's a top-tier martial soul. Her injuries healed the moment she released her Martial Soul Avatar. Such a powerful martial soul, but she took the wrong path in her cultivation," Blue Silver Emperor said with a grave expression.

The Spider Queen's soul power had now reached a level that surpassed the combined strength of the three of them.

"It seems the hardest part is just beginning. Don't let your guard down," Lin Yongming said, gripping his Thunder Blade tightly as he reminded the two women.

"Prepare to die! Third Soul Skill: Soul Devouring Web!" The Spider Queen unleashed her control skill again. Compared to before, when she didn't have her Martial Soul Avatar, the webs were now more resilient and larger, each spanning about five square meters.

"I'll handle this. First Soul Skill: Blue Silver Thrust!"

Blue Silver Emperor took action. This skill was perfect for countering the webs. Instead of attacking, she used the vines to block the webs, creating a wall of vines in front of the trio like a fortress, stopping the webs from advancing.

"Damn this Blue Silver Grass! How is it so tricky? Crescent Slash!" The Spider Queen leaped in front of the vines, using her sickle-like front legs to cleanly cut through the middle, appearing before the trio.

A strong dark green light accompanied the activation of her first soul ring, and a green barrier appeared in front of the three. Eight emerald-green crescent-shaped blades shot out.

Under the enhancement of her Martial Soul Avatar, the power of these blades was immense. Seven of them targeted Lin Yongming and Blue Silver Emperor, while only one crescent blade was aimed at Bibidong.

"Wave Burst!"

"Blue Silver Vines!"

Under the massive attack, although the two managed to block, they were forced back several steps. At the same time, the defensive barrier created by Blue Silver Emperor's buff skill shattered.

In contrast, Bibidong had an easier time. Her barrier remained intact, and she didn't expend much effort to block the attack.

However, the Spider Queen instantly appeared in front of Bibidong, looking down at her with her human head.

"Little girl with the Death Spider Emperor, tell me, what's your name? Who are your parents? Are you 17 years old?" The Spider Queen stared intently at Bibidong, as if any unsatisfactory answer would result in her spider legs slicing Bibidong in half.

"Hmph! Why should I tell you, you evil spider?" Bibidong retorted fearlessly, refusing to comply.

"Tell me! Is your surname Bi or Bai? Why were you so shocked when you saw my Devouring Soul Spider Emperor? Have you seen it before?" The Spider Queen's front legs hovered above Bibidong's head as she continued to press.

"Dong'er!" Lin Yongming called out in panic, about to rush forward, but Blue Silver Emperor held him back.

"Wait, something's off." Although the Spider Queen's face was somewhat disfigured, her phoenix-like eyes and high nose bridge gave Blue Silver Emperor a sense of familiarity. Seeing Bibidong face off against her, Blue Silver Emperor finally realized where that sense of familiarity came from.

Bibidong frowned, unsure what had gotten into the woman's head. Instead of questioning her identity as the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, she was asking about her name and age.

"That's right, my surname is Bi, and I'm 17. So what?"
