The Spirit Gu afflicting Qian Duoduo was called the Soul-Draining Mother Spider.
It was a lethal, slow-acting poison.
It lived as a parasite within Qian Duoduo's body. It wouldn't kill him immediately; in fact, during the initial period, he wouldn't feel any pain or notice anything unusual at all.
All it would do was continuously drain Qian Duoduo's vital essence, and then reproduce, and reproduce, and reproduce!
Only when every corner of Qian Duoduo's body was saturated with its venom would its true power begin to manifest.
By that time, the Soul-Draining Mother Spider would be mature and possess a considerable degree of intelligence.
This was what made the poison so terrifying.
Even after maturing and gaining the ability to kill its host, it remained patient. It would never reveal itself until the final moment, content to simply drain Qian Duoduo slowly.
