F{h*F5#)LjChapter 714: Heartbeat Fluctuations, Frightful Perception of the Catastrophe Spider Emperor

“That thing is moving towards us!” Chu Mu’s heart tightened.

The Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s eyes were facing this way, and according to Fox Elder, it couldn’t see any objects. However, this creature was clearly taking a few slow steps towards Chu Mu’s location!

It was not that the Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s steps were slow, but its massive body covered a distance nearly a hundred times greater than a human’s with each step. This three thousand meters distance could not withstand it taking such slow steps!

“It’s following the residual airflow left by Thunder Dragon. Young Master, don’t act rashly.” Fox Elder said.

Not acting rashly – Fox Elder made it sound so easy. But what was crawling towards them was an extraordinarily fierce beast with legs almost a hundred meters long and a spider-like body – a Peak Emperor Level creature!@@novelbin@@

“Young Master, let Thunder Dragon transform into a ghost. If you trust this old man, we can take a chance together.” Fox Elder said.

“What kind of gamble? Don’t joke with my life!” Chu Mu said.

“Young Master, the Catastrophe Spider Emperor was sealed in the last century, and I saw it back then. It has a very keen perception, and no creature can sneak up on it. But at the same time, it also has a fatal weakness: it can only detect creatures with a certain kind of fluctuation. Turning Thunder Dragon into a complete ghost will prevent any disruptions in the airflow and spatial fluctuations.” Fox Elder explained.

“What about the smell? This thing can smell, and it can even distinguish our human smell from Thunder Dragon’s odor.” Chu Mu asked.

“That…” Fox Elder was at a loss.

Chu Mu was speechless. That gamble wasn’t even a complete thought, everything was left to chance. If Chu Mu listened to Fox Elder and took that gamble, it would certainly end in his death.

“Thunder Dragon, swallow us into your stomach.” Chu Mu said to Thunder Dragon.

Thunder Dragon looked puzzled and confused, gazing at Chu Mu blankly.

It could understand eating that woman because she was a burden, but why did it have to eat its master too?

“That’s right, Young Master. Thunder Dragon’s stomach contains gastric acid that can mask the human scent. It is safe to hide inside Thunder Dragon’s stomach. Once Thunder Dragon completely transforms into a ghost, there will be no smell.” Fox Elder said.

With Fox Elder’s explanation, Thunder Dragon understood. First, it rudely swallowed Miss Shan into its stomach, then slowly let Chu Mu slide into its throat, and finally into its large stomach while also leaving some air inside.

Lately, Thunder Dragon had been eating Soul Crystals and not snacking on other things, so its stomach was relatively clean. Of course, the pungent smell of gastric acid was unpleasant.

During the process of Thunder Dragon swallowing Chu Mu and Miss Shan, the Catastrophe Spider Emperor had already moved about 1,500 meters closer. The enormous creature’s size was truly imposing, making it seem terrifying even from over a thousand meters away!

Thunder Dragon dared not delay any longer, slowly transforming into a transparent ghost.

Once transparent, Chu Mu could directly see the enormous Catastrophe Spider Emperor through Thunder Dragon’s body.

Just the sheer size of a Peak Emperor Level creature was enough to make one shudder in terror, not to mention the immensely powerful aura emanating from it!

For the Catastrophe Spider Emperor, a distance of over a thousand meters was practically nothing. Seemingly sensing the presence of Chu Mu, Miss Shan, and Thunder Dragon, it suddenly increased its speed!

The Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s speed was astonishing. With a burst of acceleration, its palace-like body instantly moved to where Chu Mu and Thunder Dragon had been!

“Sssssssss~~~~~~~~~~”

The Catastrophe Spider Emperor rotated its massive head, emitting a deep sound!

It could smell the presence of humans, but it couldn’t find any prey. The Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s fur was in slight contact with the ground and the air…

Though transformed into a Ghost Dragon, Thunder Dragon dared not make any large movements, not even flapping its wings!

The distance between them and the Catastrophe Spider Emperor was less than three hundred meters!!

Looking through Thunder Dragon’s body, Chu Mu could even see the Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s terrifying wriggling fur!

He never imagined that he would ever be this close to such an enormous creature!

At the moment, Chu Mu had even stopped breathing and was covering Miss Shan’s nose and throat with his hand.

Hiding inside Thunder Dragon’s stomach wasn’t an absolute safe haven. With such a close proximity, the Catastrophe Spider Emperor might detect any tiny fluctuations hidden inside a ghost’s body!

Thunder Dragon’s movements became incredibly slow, as the pressure it felt from the Catastrophe Spider Emperor, a Peak Emperor Level creature, was enormous!

Suddenly, the Catastrophe Spider Emperor turned its head towards them!!

Its head was covered in fierce fangs and blood-red eyes. At this moment, all those eyes seemed to be staring at Thunder Dragon’s location!!

In that moment, Thunder Dragon was frozen as stiff as a statue, unable to move at all!

Inside Thunder Dragon’s stomach, Chu Mu and the unconscious Miss Shan were as still as statues as well. Their breathing had stopped entirely, and the only thing still moving was Chu Mu’s wildly beating heart!!

That beating heart!

The Catastrophe Spider Emperor had sensed Chu Mu’s rapidly beating heart!!

If he could, Chu Mu would like to use his other hand to squeeze his own heart to stop it from beating so fast!

The unconscious Miss Shan’s heartbeat hadn’t caught the Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s attention, but having witnessed the Catastrophe Spider Emperor right in front of him, Chu Mu’s heart was racing faster and faster, gradually approaching the lowest limit of the creature’s spatial perception!

When facing danger, Chu Mu would usually take a deep breath to calm himself.

But his breath had stopped long ago, and if he exhaled, it would be like shouting to the Catastrophe Spider Emperor, “I’m here.”

Chu Mu didn’t even dare to let cold sweat trickle down his face, as the sweat might alert the Catastrophe Spider Emperor since Chu Mu’s heartbeat and pulse had already caught its “attention”!

The further the distance, the weaker the Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s perception. Chu Mu knew that his heartbeat was probably at the critical point of the Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s perception range.

However, the more tense he was, the faster his heart beat!

If the frequency increased, the Catastrophe Spider Emperor might take a big step in that direction. At that time, its perception would be more delicate. Chu Mu’s normal heartbeat would be discovered by the Catastrophe Spider Emperor unless he died!

It was difficult to restore the original speed of the heart under the condition of halted breathing. Chu Mu had experienced countless life-threatening situations. Many times, life or death depended on a skill, a move, or a breath.

However, Chu Mu had never experienced such tension as now. Compared to the heartbeat under the approach of Death God, a skill, a move, or a breath seemed too indulgent!

Heart!

Chu Mu never thought that the heartbeat would become the key to his life and death. At this crucial moment, his heart was accelerating, accelerating, and accelerating as if it would explode!

Chu Mu had already closed his eyes. The more he looked at the Catastrophe Spider Emperor, the more frightened he would become.

He must adjust himself; if he couldn’t adjust, he would die!

Was there any more difficult and terrifying psychological test in this world?

Chu Mu considered fainting like Miss Shan, but who would hold his breath if he fainted?

Chu Mu’s finger pressed on Miss Shan’s nose and throat. Her face had turned blue, and she seemed to be on the verge of suffocation.

No matter whether Miss Shan would suffocate or not, Chu Mu’s heart had to slow down… it had to slow down!

Stay calm and composed.

Be more calm… and more composed…

…

“Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss~~~~~~~~~~~~~”

The Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s eyes “stared” in the direction of the Little Hiding Dragon. It vaguely felt something, but this feeling was like an illusion.

Time passed very slowly. Perhaps this process only took a few seconds, but it was undoubtedly very long for Chu Mu!

Finally, the Catastrophe Spider Emperor turned his skull again!

It “stared” at a medium-grade Emperor Winged Soul Pet that soared into the sky in the distance!

The Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s eyes were used to lock on enemies spiritually. The Winged Soul Pet’s flight caused a great commotion, and soon all of the Catastrophe Spider Emperor’s fur rolled neatly like a sword formation in another direction, focusing its attention on the location of the Winged Emperor!

“Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss~~~~~~~~~” The Catastrophe Spider Emperor took a step in the opposite direction of the Little Hiding Dragon!

Previously, the heavy atmosphere of the impending storm had turned the Little Hiding Dragon into a ghost statue. After the Catastrophe Spider Emperor took a step outwards, all the pressure disappeared instantly, causing the Little Hiding Dragon to collapse softly on the ground.

Of course, the Ghost Dragon stepping on the ground couldn’t withstand even a speck of dust. If it were any other type of creature at such a close distance, the Catastrophe Spider Emperor would undoubtedly detect it easily.

The Catastrophe Spider Emperor took another step. It moved unhurriedly towards the Winged Emperor, 400 meters, 500 meters… 1000 meters, gradually moving away.

“Hu~~~~~~~~~”

Inside the Ghost Dragon’s stomach, Chu Mu gasped heavily, and then spat it out vigorously!

It was a full breath. Although it was mixed with the pungent smell of Little Hiding Dragon’s stomach acid, this was Chu Mu’s most refreshing breath ever!

“Peng peng peng peng peng~~~~~~~”

After all the pressure was released, Chu Mu’s heartbeat accelerated instantly, intensifying, and becoming more violent!

That was caused by the fear afterwards!

If Chu Mu had had such a heartbeat earlier, he would definitely have been discovered by the Catastrophe Spider Emperor. But now, Chu Mu didn’t care how fast his heart wanted to beat.

“Wuwuwu~~~~~~~~”

The Little Mo Xie in Chu Mu’s Soul Pet Space let out a faint humming sound, obviously breaking into a cold sweat for Chu Mu as well.

Chu Mu’s other Soul Pets didn’t dare to breathe during the crisis. After the crisis was lifted, they all took deep breaths.

“Young Master, if you don’t let go, the girl will really run out of breath,” said Master Li, reminding Chu Mu just in time.

Chu Mu finally reacted and hurriedly released his hand.

Miss Shan’s eyes widened, filled with bloodshot eyes, and her whole face turned blue.

She woke up when she couldn’t breathe properly, but Chu Mu pressed her so hard that she almost suffocated. Those wide-open pupils were filled with the anger and fear that only a struggling person on the verge of death would have!

It seemed that if this woman died, she would not let Chu Mu, who had pressed her to death, go even as a ghost!
