Spiders typically don't have very good eyesight, and they don't have much hearing either.

The one in front of them was clearly no exception.

Lu Jing and the others had already reached it, but it didn't seem to notice. However, as the One-Eyed Taoist took another step forward, even though there was nothing in front of him, his foot seemed to be blocked by something.

The One-Eyed Taoist reacted quickly, immediately realizing that he had stepped on something, and retreated rapidly!

The large spider, which had been motionless, suddenly came to life, lowered its head, and spat a ball of silk threads in the direction of the One-Eyed Taoist!

Lu Jing and the others finally saw its head.

The head was forty to fifty feet wide, covered with a carapace and breastplate, and had a pair of thick, sharp chelicerae!

The One-Eyed Taoist ducked to avoid the incoming silk threads.

Then, instead of retreating, he went forward again, reached into his robes, took out four small flags, and threw them in the four directions: east, south, west, and north.

The spider seemed to sense the danger, and its eight legs immediately started moving, trying to destroy the small flags on the ground. However, as soon as the flags landed, they quickly burrowed into the ground.

The spider dug a pit more than twenty feet deep in front of it, but couldn't find the small flags that had burrowed into the ground.

So it changed its target and charged towards the One-Eyed Taoist.

Not only that, but the puppets it had captured earlier also started moving, surrounding him from all directions.

Seeing this situation, Lu Jing and the other two naturally wouldn't stand by and watch the show.

Although the Inspector surnamed Ren was afraid of spiders, and the plump female Inspector was afraid of actually dying at the hands of a monster, dealing with these ordinary human puppets wasn't a problem for them.

Moreover, after realizing how the spider was controlling the others, the three of them became more adept at dealing with these puppets, no longer harming them, but focusing on cutting the silk threads on their bodies.

On the other side, the One-Eyed Taoist was also very agile.

In a short while, he completely completed the formation. The spider still wanted to clamp the target in front of it with its chelicerae, but the next moment, its body suddenly couldn't move.

Then, the One-Eyed Taoist turned the array disk again, scrambling the neatly arranged mantras on it, and reassembling them.

The next moment, the spider's eight legs were all cut off, and its huge body fell from the air, crashing heavily to the ground.

The One-Eyed Taoist kept his hands moving, constantly pouring his secret power into the array disk, and wind sickles continued to fall on the spider's body, soon cutting it into a bloody mess.

The puppets all became agitated, ignoring Lu Jing and the others, and desperately rushed towards the spider, seemingly wanting to use their bodies to block the One-Eyed Taoist's attacks for the spider.

But there was no way these ordinary people could break through the One-Eyed Taoist's formation.

The wind sickles continued non-stop, lasting for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, until the spider no longer made any sound, and the remaining people all fell to the ground, unable to move.

The One-Eyed Taoist then put away the array disk and went forward to check.

He saw a large pool of blood gushing out from under the spider, especially the back where the heart was located had been completely cut to pieces, and it was clear that it could no longer be revived.

"As expected of Inspector Wu," the plump female Inspector said with emotion, "to actually solve this monster alone. It seems that this so-called Red Luo isn't that powerful after all."

"Although everyone has things they are afraid of, as long as we are together, we can help each other, and let others deal with the things we are afraid of."

Seeing the big spider die, the Inspector surnamed Ren, who had been tense, also breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement, "That's right, Inspector Wu solved this big spider for me, so I should have nothing to fear in this blood mist. Next, why don't you let me take the lead?"

The One-Eyed Taoist didn't stand on ceremony when he heard this, and nodded, "Then I'll trouble Inspector Ren."

Although he had successfully eliminated the spider, the One-Eyed Taoist had consumed a lot of secret power by manipulating the formation just now, and he did need to recover a little at this moment.

As he spoke, he had already taken out the small bottle containing the Mending the Heavens Pill, poured out a pill from it, and swallowed it, but he didn't rest much before urging, "Let's go."

The four of them slightly exchanged positions, with the Inspector surnamed Ren taking over the lead from the One-Eyed Taoist, and continued to move forward.

This time they only walked a few dozen steps when they heard a voice from ahead, "Is Wu Mu, Inspector Wu, among those who came?"

"That's right, this Taoist is here."

The One-Eyed Taoist's spirit was shaken when he heard this and replied. From the other party's tone and manner, he could tell that the speaker should also be someone from the Sky Survey Division.

If there were no accidents, it should be the batch of Inspectors who had gone to capture those strange objects earlier.

The One-Eyed Taoist was worried about where to find them, but he didn't expect the other party to find them first.

This was naturally good news for them, meaning that their chances of solving the blood corpse were even greater, and they could also inquire more clues related to this blood mist from that Inspector.

But the One-Eyed Taoist was also an old hand, and even at this time, he didn't relax his vigilance. While answering, his right hand reached into his robes again, quietly holding the Seven Stars Array Disk.

However, this time the other side didn't play any sudden disappearance tricks, and the voice quickly sounded again, and it was getting closer and closer, "I am Jiang Yuen, a fourth-rank Inspector of the Sky Survey Division. I heard fighting before and rushed over here, and noticed that someone was setting up a Thousand Kill Array in front, so I guessed it should be Inspector Wu."

As she spoke, the person walked out of the blood mist, but it was the woman who had just met Lu Jing outside the gate of the Sky Survey Division not long ago.

The One-Eyed Taoist's hanging heart finally relaxed after hearing Jiang Yuen's words.

Being able to recognize the Thousand Kill Array and immediately guess that the person setting up the array was him, there was no doubt that the person in front of him was a genuine ally.

The One-Eyed Taoist put away the array disk and glanced behind Jiang Yuen, but didn't see anyone else, and said with some doubt, "Inspector Jiang, are you alone?"

Jiang Yuen nodded, "We were indeed chasing those strange objects together at the beginning, but later they saw that they were no match and dispersed. In order to chase people, we also dispersed together, and as a result, we were trapped in this blood mist."

"To break this blood mist, we have to remove a blood corpse in the blood mist. Has Inspector Jiang seen it?"

"Blood corpse? I have indeed seen one." Jiang Yuen nodded, "But that thing is not easy to deal with."
