Chapter 754: Gold Shaping Stimulation and Resurrection of Sub-Bodies!
The liquefied metallic juice within the spiderweb was absorbed into the Piercing Blade Trick Spider's body. Before long, its body began to emit a metallic sheen.
The metallic sheen grew increasingly intense over time.
Fang Mu observed that as the Piercing Blade Trick Spider absorbed these metal spiritual materials, it not only drew metallic energy but also incorporated the unique metal attributes of these materials.
This was strikingly similar to the situation with Hu Tao's Destiny Guardian Beast, the Bird Armor Puppet.
The metal attributes subtly enhanced the Piercing Blade Trick Spider's body, making it even more formidable.
Fang Mu had provided an enormous amount of metals for the Piercing Blade Trick Spider to absorb, totaling over six hundred thousand tons.
Fang Mu initially thought it would take some time for the Piercing Blade Trick Spider to fully absorb these materials, but he didn't expect the absorption process to be so rapid!
The Piercing Blade Trick Spider's body seemed like a Bottomless Pit, constantly devouring the metallic juice.
Seeing this, Fang Mu took out a portion from his own stockpile of metal spiritual materials, intending to feed it all to the Piercing Blade Trick Spider to aid its growth.
In Fang Mu's mind, the Piercing Blade Trick Spider was more significant than the Jeh ancient snake, though it could not compare to the Three-Headed Crane Phoenix, which could acquire large amounts of food resources.
The Piercing Blade Trick Spider could be considered a functional-type Giant Beast. With Fang Mu's substantial investment of resources, its energy level could at least be elevated from the current Silver Stage to the Gold Stage.
And its quality would improve from Perfect Quality to Epic Quality.
As Fang Mu predicted, it took a little over a day for the Piercing Blade Trick Spider to absorb and convert the energy.
After a day, the Piercing Blade Trick Spider's previously gray-green body color had entirely transformed into a metallic tone, resembling a metallic construct.
Raising his hand, Fang Mu touched the bristles on one of the Piercing Blade Trick Spider's legs and noticed they had the same metallic texture.
After absorbing these materials, the Piercing Blade Trick Spider's physical strength had increased by at least threefold.
For a functional unit like the Piercing Blade Trick Spider, which could produce a large number of Child Spiders, Fang Mu wasn't overly concerned with its offensive strength.
However, Fang Mu hoped the Piercing Blade Trick Spider would possess exceptionally strong defenses to prevent accidents leading to the destruction of its Mother Body in the future.
If the Mother Body were to perish, the Child Spiders would lose control, and the Piercing Blade Trick Spider would enter its next cycle of reincarnation.
Fang Mu didn't pay much attention to changes in the spider's body size.
Once its size exceeded a certain level, it was hard for Fang Mu to tell if the Piercing Blade Trick Spider had grown any larger.
Now, the body supported by the Piercing Blade Trick Spider's legs already reached above the clouds, making it difficult for Fang Mu to discern the outline of its main body without standing on the back of the Three-Headed Crane Phoenix.
Excited, the Piercing Blade Trick Spider, now named Spider Mother by Fang Mu, spoke to him.
"Father, I've become so much more powerful compared to before!"
"Thank you, Father, for nurturing me. With my current strength, I believe I can go head-to-head with Golan and Yun He even without relying on my Sub-Bodies!"
Spider Mother's expression was full of pride as it spoke.
The Jeh ancient snake and the Three-Headed Crane Phoenix had been hatched for some time, but the Spider Mother had only just been born.
Hearing this, Fang Mu thought to himself how competitive Spider Mother was, even as a newly hatched beast, always seeking comparisons.
Indeed, in terms of raw strength, Spider Mother was slightly superior, but Golan and Yun He each had their unique functionalities, making them indispensable in their own right.
Fang Mu didn't bother correcting or discouraging Spider Mother's mindset. Golan and Yun He were relatively laid-back and got along well with each other. Food collection was their instinct.
But to be honest, both Golan and Yun He lacked strong ambition.
This did not particularly help enhance their strength. Ambition was something essential and shouldn't be absent.
With Spider Mother around, Fang Mu believed its presence would inspire Golan and Yun He to develop some healthy competitiveness among themselves.
Fang Mu then proceeded to forge a contract with a pollutant, assigning part of his power to permanently reside in the Giant Beast World.
Fang Mu intended to accelerate the development of the Giant Beast World.
Using the Eye of Omniscience, the innate divine ability of the Fool's Shadow, Fang Mu inspected the Piercing Blade Trick Spider.
[Beast Name]: Piercing Blade Trick Spider
[Beast Species]: Giant Spider Family / Piercing Spider Genus
[Energy Level]: Gold (6/10)
[Physical Level]: Mid Gods' Domain
[Beast Element]: Metal / Earth
[Beast Potential]: Platinum
[Beast Quality]: Epic

[Sub-Spider Armed]: Enhances the physical qualities of Child Spiders using a special insect protein secreted from its body. This improves both the offensive and defensive capabilities of the Child Spiders, equipping them with unique attack and defense weapons (which differ for each individual Child Spider).
[Fog Web Spray]: Releases the adhesive liquid from the spider sac in a mist-like form. This adhesive quickly transforms into webs suspended in air, creating a space highly conducive for itself and its Child Spiders to operate.
[Gold Shaping Stimulation]: Activates the internal metallic energy, distributing it across its webs and Child Sub-Bodies. This process grants metallic attributes to the webs and sub-bodies, increasing the toughness of the webs and boosting the combat capabilities of the Child Sub-Bodies.
Exclusive Trait:
[Double Incubation]: Enhances its ability to reproduce Sub-Bodies. For every successfully incubated Sub-Body, it slightly increases its own energy absorption rate.
