Spatial abilities were incredibly troublesome!
The loss of the skeletal lizard knights was negligible because they were only meant for reconnaissance.
Since not a single skeletal shaman had been lost, it wasn't a real blow to the Well of Eternal Imprisonment.
Gaining new intelligence at such a cost was a bargain.
How were they supposed to deal with the spatial magic spiders?
Behind the absolute defensive line formed by the spatial magic spiders' Spatial Silk, the man-bodied spiders began regrouping their remaining forces.
Simultaneously, even more monsters surged out from the core.
Dalun Li was familiar with this scene.
The enemy held the home-field advantage as they could use their core to continuously generate monsters.
That was how the Dark Starry Sky had been.
However, the core of this spatial cluster could not possibly be like the Dark Starry Sky because the quantity and efficiency of monster production should be limited rather than infinite.
The eight-eyed trolls rallied.
The dwarf knights formed into legions.
After slaughtering the pursuing skeletal lizard knights, the spatial magic spiders dispersed throughout the area covered by their silk.
Clearly, the man-bodied spiders intended to use this silk-covered zone to resist the attacks from the Well of Eternal Imprisonment's monsters.
They can teleport at will within the silk?
Then just burn all the silk away.
High above, several massive Wyvern Leaders spread their wings and approached while seventy heavy armor wyvern knights and lava shaman wyvern knights flew alongside them.
Facing this unstoppable aerial legion, the retreating man-bodied eagle aerial units began to tremble uncontrollably before the battle even began.
This was another weakness.
The fighting spirit of the spatial cluster's monsters would never compare to those of the Well of Eternal Imprisonment.
This was because the monsters of the Well of Eternal Imprisonment served a respected Master whom they would fight to the death to protect.
The man-bodied eagles collapsed at the first contact while the Wyvern Leaders spat flames and the lava shamans summoned fireballs.
Just burn all the silk with fire!
However, when the flames struck the ground, the invisible silk remained completely unaffected.
The man-bodied spider breathed a sigh of relief.
Spatial Silk possessed spatial properties, which made it impossible to destroy with ordinary damage.
It could only be damaged when the silk was triggered.
Seeing that the flames were ineffective, the wyverns had to pull up to avoid the silk.
"Lady Zeno, Lord Tongmu, I am willing to fight."
Standing behind Zeno, the Desert Sword Attendant watched the projected battlefield and spoke up.
Its massive body did not dare to show even a hint of presumption before the two masters.
"Continue," Zeno said calmly.
"The Spatial Silk can only be destroyed when it is activated."
"As long as that silk binds me, I can instantly cut it and leave those spatial magic spiders no chance to attack me."
"Then I can lead the skeletal knights to push inward and break the deadlock."
The Desert Sword Attendant quickly explained its plan before lowering its head and waiting patiently for Zeno's response.
"Go then."
"Yes, I shall obey your command, Guardian!"
The Desert Sword Attendant had long been eager to show its strength and prove its value.
It quickly led a skeletal knight legion and began the charge.
This skeletal knight legion was different from the previous one.
They were fully equipped with armor made of wood armor monsters.
The skeletal lizard mounts beneath them were also a size larger as they were carefully bred by the skeletal shamans and fully clad in wood armor monsters.
Within the skeletal lizard knights, there were also intelligent skeletal shamans assigned to each squad who were capable of flexible command and healing bone damage on the fly.
This was an elite skeletal knight legion and though it only numbered five hundred, every single one was a veteran.
"Fight for the Master!"
With a roar, the Desert Sword Attendant charged at the very front.
Charging alongside the Desert Sword Attendant was the Exiled Sentry who wielded its sword and shield.
Facing the Desert Sword Attendant, the Exiled Sentry, and the elite knights, the man-bodied spider in overall command hastily began directing her forces.
The massive spatial magic spiders stood ready.
The moment the Desert Sword Attendant charged into the ravine plain, the silk manifested and bound it tightly.
"Attack now!"
Without waiting for the man-bodied spider's command, the spatial magic spiders began to teleport.
But in that exact moment, the Desert Sword Attendant's four arms blurred and toxic Sword Qi radiated outward to shred the binding silk.
One arm swung out and pierced straight through a spatial magic spider that had just teleported in front of it.
Foul purple blood sprayed out.
The spatial magic spider desperately tried to bite the Desert Sword Attendant.
However, with its four arms moving, the fierce Sword Qi instantly tore the massive spider to pieces.
Although the spatial magic spiders were ten meters in size, most of that was their legs and their bodies weren't actually that large.
In terms of mass, they weren't even half that of the Desert Sword Attendant.
Having shredded the spatial magic spider, the Desert Sword Attendant swung the blades on its four arms and continued its charge at the front.
One after another, the ambushing spatial magic spiders were torn to shreds in the blink of an eye.
The man-bodied spider commanded with wide eyes.
She seized an opportunity and let a spatial magic spider pounce on the Desert Sword Attendant from a blind spot.
But the Exiled Sentry nearby suddenly raised its shield and swung its blade to block the spatial magic spider.
The Desert Sword Attendant took the chance to strike as a Fireball blasted from its mouth and blew the ambushing spider to bits.
The Desert Sword Attendant and the Exiled Sentry were like a sharp spear piercing deep into this deadly wasteland.
The knight legion followed closely behind to push forward and form ranks while coordinating their battle against the approaching spatial magic spiders to prevent their retreat from being reclaimed by silk.
"How can they be so strong? These two... they're boss-class monsters!"
Boss-class monsters were the pinnacle of power a dungeon could deploy.
As long as these two boss-class monsters were dealt with, the remaining monsters would never be able to break through the spatial magic spiders' silk wasteland.
The man-bodied spider quickly made a judgment.
Simultaneously, she let out a piercing shriek.
This shriek drew the attention of everyone watching the battlefield.
Zeno even lowered her head slightly to focus intently on Tongmu's projection.
Tongmu's red light flickered.
With their superior sensing and vision, they both noticed the awakening of a powerful presence.
A massive fissure split the ground and a thick, pitch-black spider leg stabbed out.
Then came a massive, hideous body covered in purple-black markings.

[Description] The leader of the spatial magic spiders and man-bodied spiders, and the progenitor of spider monsters. She controls powerful spatial forces, possesses the power to destroy countless lives, and is highly venomous.
The moment the Spatial Spider Queen broke through the ground, her massive leg stabbed heavily toward the Desert Sword Attendant.
A strong sense of danger made the Desert Sword Attendant roll out of the way.
But as eight legs stabbed in succession, while the Desert Sword Attendant relied on its speed to dodge, the elite skeletal knights were not so lucky.
Several knights along with their skeletal lizard mounts were instantly impaled.
The Spatial Spider Queen's eight eyes locked onto the Desert Sword Attendant.
Spatial Lock activated.
In an instant, the Desert Sword Attendant felt the air around its body solidify like stone to lock it firmly in place.
By the time it managed to break free with all its strength, the Spatial Spider Queen's venom-coated, sharp leg was already stabbing down deep.
The Desert Sword Attendant had no choice but to swing its four arms to unleash Sword Qi as it met the descending leg through gritted teeth.
Sharpness clashed against sharpness and the Desert Sword Attendant barely dodged while using its speed to pull away.
But with a single flash, the Spatial Spider Queen used the spatial silk to teleport behind the Desert Sword Attendant and her leg stabbed down once more.
"I'm no match for her!"
The Desert Sword Attendant quickly realized this.
But for an enemy like this, was Lady Zeno supposed to step in?
This spider wasn't worthy!
Just as the Desert Sword Attendant was about to risk its life, a Wyvern Leader dove down and spat scorching flames at the queen.
The queen blocked the searing flames and spat a glob of acid into the air.
The Wyvern Leader's hard scales were corroded into pits and craters in the blink of an eye.
But the Wyvern Leader still didn't stop and dropped a Candelabra toward the Desert Sword Attendant.
Looking at the familiar Candelabra before it, the Desert Sword Attendant quickly caught it.
That was exactly the Candelabra Dalun Li had filled with disposable Forbidden Fire!
