Killing the Spider Emperor and Refining Gu

The Spider Emperor spat out blood, leaving a pool of liquid on the cave wall.

His decapitated body fell to the ground. He did not struggle much and then stopped moving.

The Spider Emperor's soul had already been destroyed by Song Shi's sword qi and was dead.

"Nice kill!"

The chains binding the Spider Emperor quickly loosened. Lu Jiu flew in in a flash. As he retrieved the chains and Dharma treasures, he smiled and nodded at Song Shi, as if he did not care that Song Shi had taken advantage of the chaos to run in.

In this ruin, the Spider Emperor was more of a hindrance that prevented them from continuing to explore deeper. Therefore, they had to kill him as soon as possible.
