58: No? We only have less than five minutes left to live, and you still want to eat me?!

"Five minutes?!"

Su Chen's giant eyes stared fixedly at the terrifying colossal leg below, which was constantly emitting whispers,

feeling the chaotic origin power that was enough to completely annihilate him.

His recently recovered sanity frantically calculated a way out.

No!

I cannot die!

I only reincarnated six days ago; the wonderful life of this lifetime has just begun!

I cannot give up.

There must be a way! I definitely have a way!!!

Suddenly,

his gaze abruptly fell upon the edge of the lava pool.

There, Aria gently rose and fell with the magma, her upper body weakly draped over the massive spider body, her eight blade-like long legs slightly curled, like a dying butterfly.

Her deep purple pupils reflected the crimson light flowing from the lava dome above, holding a tranquility that bordered on nothingness.

Her body was also dissolving under the corrosion of the whispers; dark purple energy circulated laboriously on her surface, forming a veil-like shield that was rapidly thinning.

Seeing Aria,

an extremely risky idea flashed through Su Chen's mind!

Wait!

The panel shows that this Spider Spirit is a sacrifice dedicated to the Spider God, commonly known as a God-Sacrificer, right?

Then she seems to possess the divine power of the Spider God, doesn't she?

I have a way!!!

"Aria!"

Su Chen’s vast and urgent spiritual fluctuation was transmitted directly into Aria's mind.

This was the first time he had called her name.

"Do you want to live? Give me... some of your power!"

Aria, who was calmly waiting for death,

upon hearing this, abruptly turned her head.

Her deep purple pupils were filled with astonishment and vigilance:

"Seriously? We only have less than five minutes to live. With so little time left, you still want to eat me?!"

"Dream on!!!"

"I'm not eating you!"

Su Chen's spiritual fluctuation carried an unprecedented urgency and a hint of... honesty?

"It's analysis! Fusion! My SSS-grade core talent, Ocean Dominator, can analyze and fuse excellent genes!"

"The power of the Spider God within you! Its characteristics of 'Space Cutting' and 'Energy Weaving'! By fusing it, I might be able to recreate a barrier to stabilize the seal on that stinking foot below! If I succeed, maybe we can both survive!!!"

Su Chen spoke extremely quickly.

His spiritual intent conveyed the operational principles and possibilities of the Ocean Dominator talent.

At the critical juncture of life and death,

he chose to take a gamble.

He bet that Aria didn't want to die either, and that the divine power she possessed was the key to breaking the deadlock!

"Are... are you sure you can control this divine power? That you won't be assimilated by its backlash?"

Aria's voice was full of suspicion.

"I'm not sure! But this is the only chance! If we hesitate any longer, we'll both die!"

Su Chen roared. At this moment,

his massive body and ten tentacles had already melted away significantly.

Aria watched Su Chen's body, which was constantly regenerating and resisting the dissolution,

sensing the unyielding will in his spirit and... a strange quality capable of accommodating chaos,

a flicker of determination flashed in her eyes.

"Fine!"

She took a deep breath.

"I'll trust you this once! But remember, if you dare take this opportunity to devour my life energy... I will self-detonate my Crystal Core and drag you down with me!"

She abruptly withdrew some of the energy protecting herself,

and actively extended a fair arm, wrapped in dense dark purple energy with a faint, Twisted Rune visible at its core, toward one of Su Chen's tentacles.

"Don't worry, I promise you, I will only devour the power of the Spider God within you! I won't eat you!"

Su Chen's tentacle wrapped around it, and he confirmed one last time,

"Are there any taboos?"

"As long as you're not of the same race... our souls won't intertwine... There's little time left, hurry!"

Aria gasped urgently, the corrosion of the curse distorting her voice.

She had never considered that the essence of his soul was human,

just as Su Chen believed she was merely a powerful Abyssal Demon.

"Relax! I am the Kraken, and you are a spider! We are worlds apart!"

Su Chen's spiritual intent was resolute.

As Su Chen's tentacle tightly coiled around Aria's arm,

the SSS-grade Ocean Dominator talent activated at full power!

Buzz!

A powerful, irresistible suction burst forth from Su Chen's tentacle!

The vast, domineering dark purple energy in Aria's right arm, imbued with the Spider God's cold will,

was violently extracted and devoured like a flood breaking through a dam!

However,

the moment this divine power, which touched upon the very origin, merged into the core of Su Chen's gene chain—

BOOM!!!

The two human souls, hidden beneath non-human shells,

due to this connection that transcended species and directly touched the origin of life,

under the deadly pressure of the Old Ones' whispers,

experienced an unpredictable, earth-shattering resonance!

The barrier of the soul

shattered!

Aria's breaching torrent of memories,

carrying her deepest despair and pain, violently broke through the defenses of Su Chen's consciousness!

In an instant,

a series of fragmented and sorrowful images appeared in Su Chen's consciousness:

Sunlight, floral fragrance, and a pure white gauze dress.

A black-haired girl, her hair like a waterfall, leaned down in the Imperial Royal Garden, her fingertips lightly touching delicate petals.

Sunlight skipped through the gaps in the leaves, dancing in her crystal-clear eyes.

She was the Saintess of the Holy Light Church, the most brilliant pearl of the Empire, her soul as pure as fresh snow.

The scene abruptly shifted!

A dark altar, burning with strange purple flames.

Her once loving Royal Father and the revered Archibishop now wore twisted, fanatical expressions.

She had been drugged by her most trusted Maid, collapsing weakly onto the cold altar.

In her ears was her father's cruel declaration:

"For the eternity of the Empire! To please the Great Abyssal Lord Groltonax! Offer the purest vessel!"

Outside the altar, metal clashed!

Her Personal Guard Captain, whom she viewed as an older brother,

along with countless warriors she had saved, rushed toward the altar like moths to a flame, roaring, trying to rescue her,

but under the strangulation of the Fanatics and magic,

limbs flew everywhere, and blood stained the steps!

The next moment,

indescribable pain!

Aria's body was torn apart and reconstructed by an invisible force!

Her bones were forcibly twisted and deformed, and hard carapace and sharp appendages grew from her flesh.

Her soul was forcibly invaded, contaminated, and torn apart by a cold, chaotic will full of endless greed and malice!

Her pure soul was defiled, her beautiful memories shattered, leaving behind only endless pain and resentment.

Her screams turned into materialized spiritual threads, piercing the void.

Thus!

The human girl Ailiya "died" in extreme pain.

The World-Ending Spider Queen Ailiya was born in the darkness of the Abyssal Trench.

The Spider God's will was like a maggot clinging to bone, constantly trying to completely occupy this perfect vessel.

The only remaining trace of her human consciousness, belonging to Ailiya,

became "impurities" in the Spider God's eyes,

drawing the most malicious curse: Never-Ending Spider Transformation Corrosion!

Once she completely succumbed to the power, or if the power went out of control,

she would completely transform into an Abyssal Giant Spider, devoid of reason and knowing only destruction, becoming the Spider God's perfect avatar in the material world!
