The technique of spirit projection is a very important milestone for all warriors, not just archers but also swordsmen.

Because only by mastering the technique of spirit projection can one's mental energy lock onto a moving target and then attack with precision.

Many warriors spend their entire lives unable to complete the technique of spirit projection, so their martial arts skills never advance.

This technique of spirit projection is a complete test of one's mental talent. If one's talent is extremely high and luck is also good, it might be completed within half a month. If the talent is high but the luck is not good enough, it might take several months or even half a year.

Yao Xing once said that Lan Ling's mental talent is around 7.5, which is quite high but not at the top.

Next, Ye Jingyu stood behind Lan Ling, reciting the "Drifting Formula."

This "Drifting Formula" is similar to the "Peace Formula" in that it has no specific words, like ethereal chanting. Moreover, it is infused with special energy, directly penetrating the ears and the brain.

Under the influence of this special mental stimulant and the ethereal "Drifting Formula," Lan Ling felt his body becoming lighter and lighter, until he almost couldn't feel his own existence, as if his soul and spirit were about to leave his body.

However, every time he was about to leave his body, it felt as if he was being held back by a thread, unable to truly drift away.

At this moment, Lan Ling, who was in the water, was just a little bit away from achieving spirit projection.

Every time his mental energy tried to rush out, a thread would immediately pull him back. Moreover, after countless efforts, it became not only more difficult but even harder.

Because he gradually felt the existence of his body and lost the feeling of floating.

In this situation, completing the technique of spirit projection became even more difficult. At this rate, it would take longer and longer, possibly three months or even half a year.

At this point, Lan Ling felt that success was becoming more and more distant. He immediately summoned Yao Xing in his mind and said, "Do you have a way to let me complete the spirit projection immediately?"

Yao Xing replied, "Of course."

Its answer was so straightforward and decisive that Lan Ling was instantly stunned.

Yao Xing said, "I am independent yet coexist within you, so my energy can guide your spirit to leave your body."

Lan Ling said, "That's good. Now, guide my spirit out immediately."

Yao Xing said, "Then, please remove all your defenses, enter the 'Inverted Moon Formula,' and focus all your attention on the inverted moon in the water."

Lan Ling followed the instructions, concentrating all his mental energy in one place, with no defenses.

Yao Xing released a surge of dragon energy, combining it with his mental energy, and then guided it directly out of Lan Ling's eyes.

At that moment, Lan Ling truly felt as if his soul had left his body.

Immediately after, Lan Ling really saw himself, face to face.

This is impossible in reality unless there is a mirror in front. At this moment, he wasn't really seeing himself but only a mental perception, creating a reflection in his brain, causing a visual illusion.

This Yao Xing is truly incredible.

At this moment, Lan Ling clearly felt his dragon energy rapidly depleting. When his mental energy was still in his body, the consumption of dragon energy was not significant. But once his spirit left his body, the consumption of dragon energy increased exponentially.

In other words, every time he locked onto a moving target in the future, he would have to expend a large amount of dragon energy.

For a powerful archer, each long-range mental lock would be equivalent to a critical hit. In a day, there would only be three to five opportunities for a perfect hit.

However, this is reasonable. Otherwise, a dragon archer could hit a target a thousand meters away at any time, and the battlefield would be meaningless.

"Alright, your mental energy should be exhausted. That's enough for today. Continue tomorrow," Ye Jingyu's voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

Then, he directly stood out of the water.

Lan Ling also stood out of the water, noticing that the sky was filled with stars, and it was already evening.

Seeing Lan Ling's mental fatigue, Ye Jingyu said, "Don't be discouraged. The technique of spirit projection can take as little as half a month, but two to three months, or even half a year, is normal. It relies on talent, but even more on luck."

Lan Ling said, "I have already succeeded."

Ye Jingyu instantly opened her beautiful eyes, exclaiming, "This, this is impossible. Even with the highest mental talent, it takes half a month, and that's with very good luck."

Lan Ling said, "I really succeeded. After the spirit projection, I saw myself as a silhouette, shimmering with a faint golden glow and a hint of purple."

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingyu knew that Lan Ling had truly completed the technique of spirit projection. Without truly experiencing it, one cannot describe the first scene of seeing oneself after spirit projection.

"You, you are truly a prodigy," Ye Jingyu said. "This hardest hurdle is now passed. Locking onto a moving target will be much easier. Go to sleep; we need to practice early tomorrow."

"Yes," Lan Ling said.

Then, Ye Jingyu started setting up the tent. After the tent was set up, Lan Ling went to sleep, while Ye Jingyu entered the river under the waterfall again.

"I'm going to take a bath. Don't peek, or I'll gouge out your eyes," Ye Jingyu said.

...

At the same time, inside the capital city.

"Ah..."

Princess Zining suddenly woke up from her sleep, her body feeling as if it were on fire, drenched in sweat.

This had happened countless times; she had those indecent dreams again.

Ever since she was bitten on the lips by Solon, that bastard, she often had dreams, and in every dream, Solon was there.

In the dreams, Solon would always change his methods to torment her.

And she actually enjoyed it in her pain, even reaching a peak in one of those erotic dreams.

In reality, she was a person with an incredibly strong will, able to control everything.

But she could not control her dreams, could not stop herself from dreaming. As a result, she even became afraid to sleep.

"After the final exam, that bastard must die, must die!" Princess Zining said firmly.

At this moment, a very light footsteps were heard outside.

"Who?" Princess Zining said coldly.

A person in a black cloak entered without touching the ground, bowed, and said, "Princess, a message from the flying kite, with four feathers, from the southern border."

Four feathers indicate extreme urgency, to be delivered to Princess Zining as soon as possible. Five feathers would be delivered directly to Zili.

"Bring it here." Zining put on her golden silk gloves and took the secret letter.

Upon opening it, she saw a code that only she and Zili could understand.

After reading it, her eyebrows twitched slightly, and she murmured, "So you ran to the southern border. Dying there would be in vain, so don't blame me for taking your life early."

Then, she got out of bed, completely naked, her beautiful and flawless body, incomparably perfect.

The black-cloaked eunuch who entered immediately lowered his gaze, not daring to glance even with the corner of his eye. Even though the noble body in front of him would move even a eunuch.

She sat on a brocade chair and drew a portrait on the table.

The drawing technique she used was Lan Ling's sketching, and she had already mastered it to a high degree. She was truly a genius.

"Send this portrait to the Black Widow of the Viper Tribe via the flying kite. Tell her that the person in the portrait is her new target," Zining casually threw the letter away.

"Yes," the black-cloaked eunuch caught the secret letter and disappeared from the room like the wind.

...

The Viper Tribe is one of the surviving barbarian tribes in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

The reason this tribe has survived is first due to its chieftain, the Black Widow.

Because of her cruelty, her supreme beauty, and her strength!

Wild warriors who come to the Ten Thousand Mountains dare to hunt the barbarians of any tribe, except the Viper Tribe.

Because anyone who dares to hunt a member of the Viper Tribe will not only die but also have their family and their team wiped out completely.

A team led by a dragon warrior, confident in their strength, once killed a Viper Tribe team.

However, within a month, the entire clan of the dragon warrior was brutally killed, their bodies rotting.

Immediately after, all the members of the team and their families were mysteriously killed.

On each corpse was a shocking signature: Black Widow.

Since then, wild warriors who come to the Ten Thousand Mountains no longer dare to hunt the Viper Tribe.

And the Black Widow became the most terrifying woman in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

It is said that her beauty can bewitch the mind, and she has countless faces, some seductive, some pure. Even when she appears in front of you, you wouldn't know it's the Black Widow.

The entire Viper Tribe lives in a cave on a cliff.

In a richly decorated room, lanterns were hung everywhere, and the character for "joy" was pasted all over.

The most beautiful woman of the Viper Tribe was getting married. The groom was a high-ranking warrior from a human kingdom, who had abandoned everything for his bride.

The bride wore a tight, bright red dress, with a veil on her head, sitting on the bed.

Her figure was truly snake-like. Ye Jingyu's figure was already very curvaceous, but this woman was even more so. Her curves were not just physical but exuded a demonic allure.

The groom, around thirty years old, was very handsome, and he was staring at the bride sitting on the bed, still in a daze, unable to believe that such a beautiful woman was really his bride.

"Dear, are you really willing to stay here for me?" the bride asked softly, her voice incredibly sweet.

"Willing!" the groom trembled.

"You are a high-ranking warrior with a bright future in the human kingdom, with land, an army, and your family. If you marry me, you will have to abandon all of this," the beautiful woman said. "Your future will be gone, your land will be gone, and the entire human kingdom will see you as an enemy."

"For you, for my beloved, I am willing to give up everything," the handsome groom said passionately, then knelt before the beautiful woman, saying, "From now on, I am a warrior of the Viper Tribe. I will use my life to protect you and the Viper Tribe."

"You have suffered enough," the bride said softly. "Dear, lift my veil."

The groom stepped forward and lifted her red veil, revealing a face of exquisite beauty, her eyes like crystal.

"Dear, it's not early. Let's rest," the bride said coyly, then extended her hand to wrap around the groom's neck.

The human high-ranking warrior groom was trembling with excitement, his dream woman finally becoming completely his.

The bride kept getting closer, her cherry-red lips exhaling a sweet breath, kissing the groom's neck.

"Dear, I will make you remember this for the rest of your life," the beautiful bride whispered in the groom's ear, then slightly opened her mouth.

However, what emerged was not a small tongue but sharp white teeth, which bit into the artery on the human warrior groom's neck, blood gushing out like a spring.

The human warrior groom instinctively tried to break free, but the terrifying poison instantly entered his bloodstream, paralyzing him completely.

Then, he watched helplessly as all his blood was drained by the incomparably beautiful woman in front of him.

"Gulping..." The beautiful woman greedily drank the blood.

The originally strong and heroic high-ranking warrior gradually turned into a dried-up corpse, his face contorted in extreme pain, his eyes filled with absolute confusion before he died.

Why did such a devoted love end in such a fate? Were the sweet words and vows of eternal love all lies?

The beautiful woman, now full of blood, her eyes completely dazed, her entire body trembling violently, her soul trembling, as if reaching the peak of ecstasy.

"Ah..." She let out a soul-stirring moan, tearing off her tight red dress.

"Rip, rip..." She used her sharp nails to tear the human high-ranking warrior's corpse into pieces.

Blood splattered everywhere. Then, in the midst of the blood, she, completely naked, thoroughly enjoyed the bath of blood.

She is the incomparably beautiful, charming, and terrifying Black Widow!
