Chapter 570 Achieved Tier Six!
Edited by Aelryinth
No matter if the remaining herb could be cultivated after he brought it back, he had to take the possibility into consideration. As such, Zhang Che dug it out without any hesitation.
He wouldn"t lose anything if it didn"t work, anyway. But if it did, it"d be an enormous help and contribution to the herbal research inst.i.tute!
He might not find such a unique treasure again. Even in his personal secret realm, Zhang Che hadn"t found a spiritual herb of this grade.
It went to show this kind of treasure could truly be only chanced upon by luck. He wouldn"t be able to obtain it again if he missed it.
Seeing Zhang Che not forgetting to dig out the herb by the roots before leaving, Huang Tielan couldn"t help but smile.
-That"s my man! He"s so attentive!-
She had originally wanted to remind Zhang Che about this, but he had unexpectedly thought of it without needing her to say a word, and executed it perfectly. Not bad of him!
---
After digging out the spiritual herb, Zhang Che recalled the two epic-quality subdued beasts he had a.s.signed to guard the herb back into his spiritual sea. He said to Huang Tielan, "Come on, we have to leave here quickly in case anything dangerous happens."
In the next moment, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon and the Dark Unicorn rose to the skies together, flying towards the area where Zhang Che had set up camp during this period of time.
However, just as the two flying mounts took flight, Zhang Che"s expression changed slightly.
He could sense large amounts of exotic beasts rus.h.i.+ng in from all directions, both on land and in the skies. Their numbers were definitely not low.
Those exotic beasts" senses towards heavenly treasures were truly terrifying! They were already making their ways here, despite being so far away!
After becoming a Tier Five beastmaster and obtaining a powerful weapon like the Cold Jade Sword, Huang Tielan became very courageous. She suggested to Zhang Che, "Zhang Xiaoche, let"s force our way out!"
He laughed, saying, "You"re really gutsy. There are many exotic beasts rus.h.i.+ng at us from all directions!"
After a short silence, Zhang Che actually nodded slightly, agreeing to her suggestion. He said, "I can sense the beasts around us. Although there are many exotic beasts, there doesn"t seem to be any overly powerful ones. At the most there are only a handful of legend-quality ones. We can definitely take a fight here, given our strength and mobility."
Zhang Che wasn"t planning on fighting those exotic beasts head-on originally. However, he quickly thought of Huang Tielan"s goal to reach Tier Six beastmaster. The number of exotic beasts she needed to kill was terrifyingly high.
Wasn"t there a great opportunity right before them?
With so many exotic beasts sending themselves to their doorsteps, Zhang Che and Huang Tielan might not even be able to kill them all before nightfall!
"But, you better be careful. You mustn"t leave my side. It"ll be really dangerous if anything happens and I can"t reach you in time. After all, there are too many exotic beasts coming our way," Zhang Che reminded her, worried that Huang Tielan might get careless.
Huang Tielan nodded and said confidently, "Don"t worry, I know that. Although I"ve become very strong, I don"t have an epic-quality subdued beast when all is said and done, and I might get into danger at any time. Rest a.s.sured, I won"t move too far away from you!"
Zhang Che finally relaxed after seeing she understood the severity of the situation. He nodded heavily, saying, "Okay, then. We"ll go on a ma.s.sacre and hopefully save you some time on becoming a Tier Six beastmaster!"
Soon, the closest exotic beasts reached them.
However, after closing the distance, they finally realized the aura of that treasure they sensed earlier had disappeared. Only a hint of its aura remained on these two creatures in front of them.
-Well, d.a.m.n, someone else has already claimed it for themselves!
-Since those two strange creatures have eaten the treasure, there wouldn"t be much difference if we ate them instead!-
As such, those exotic beasts didn"t care how strong Zhang Che seemed to be. Their eyes went red, rus.h.i.+ng at him and Huang Tielan.
As for the exotic beasts without the ability to fly, they kept roaring furiously. The middle and high-quality exotic beasts with skills unleashed them without hesitation, shrouding Zhang Che and Huang Tielan in the sky.
"Watch out, those exotic beasts seems to have gone crazy! Let"s pick up some alt.i.tude and finish off the ones in the sky first!"
Zhang Che was caught by surprise when he saw how crazy those exotic beasts were. He hurriedly warned Huang Tielan, and they quickly flew higher on their respective flying mounts to avoid beingg caught in the range of the skills of the exotic beasts on the ground.
What followed was a one-sided ma.s.sacre.
Although many exotic beasts had come, Zhang Che and the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon were too strong. The groups of exotic beasts which only had one or two legend-quality among them at the most couldn"t resist Zhang Che"s attacks at all.
Less than half an hour later, the densely packed exotic beasts in the skies were mostly killed.
Large amounts of exotic beasts were frozen into statues. They fell from the skies to the mountain forest below, shattering into pieces. Some of the statues exploded in the air from Zhang Che"s attacks, turning into ma.s.ses of light, either dissipating or turning into beast cards and falling.
Huang Tielan wasn"t doing badly, either. Although she kept Zhang Che"s words in mind and didn"t move too far away from him, she cut down many flying exotic beasts with her sword as well, growing so excited that her face was slightly flushed.
There were truly too many exotic beasts. Although most of them were killed by Zhang Che, Huang Tielan"s gains weren"t little, either.
She could tell that if something similar happened every day, it wouldn"t take long before she successfully advanced to Tier Six beastmaster.
------
In the end, the remaining exotic beasts finally came back to themselves from the illusion of fighting for the treasure, and started to escape in all directions, one after another.
Zhang Che and Huang Tielan didn"t pay any heed to them. Instead, they directly ordered their flying mounts to dive to the ground.
The exotic beasts in the sky were dealt with, but there were still many on the ground howling, waiting for them to come slaughter them.
Exotic beasts were creatures, after all. Under the allure of the treasure, all of them lost their rationality and rushed to their deaths despite knowing they weren"t a match for Zhang Che. This left him speechless.
On second thought, however, humans were probably not much smarter than exotic beasts, either. Once a heavenly treasure like that appeared in public in front of the ma.s.ses of beastmasters, most of them wouldn"t be able to stay calm either, right?
When all was said and done, humans died for wealth, and animals died for food. It was nothing to be surprised about.
As the sky gradually darkened, Zhang Che and Huang Tielan finally cleaned up most of the exotic beasts that had gathered here. The remaining ones finally felt the fear from the slaughtering, and turned around and fled.
Surprisingly, after experiencing such a battle, not only did Huang Tielan not feel uncomfortable, she even shouted excitedly to Zhang Che, "This feels too good, Zhang Xiaoche! I feel like I will advance to Tier Six beastmaster very soon if this happens a few more times!"
This miss was truly born with violent genes in her bones!
Zhang Che stole a glance at Huang Tielan"s twin peaks rising and falling intensely from excitement. A hint of mischievousness flashed in his eyes. He couldn"t resist teasing her, "So good, but is it better than when I was servicing you?"
"You"re looking for death, Zhang Xiaoche!" Huang Tielan immediately grew angry and embarra.s.sed. She brandished her long sword, charging at Zhang Che viciously.
Zhang Che laughed out loud, and flew back on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to their camp.
After returning to their camp, the two didn"t even eat their dinner, and had a "fierce battle" in the cave. It ended up with both sides "gravely wounded", exhausted to the point that neither of them could move. They were tangled together, not moving for a long time.
Outside the cave, the elemental queen sighed, thinking to herself, -These two are really becoming more and more amazing. They just experienced a huge battle outside, and didn"t even eat their dinner before rus.h.i.+ng off to copulate… Humans are indeed confusing creatures…-
-But, does it really feel that good?-
Heavens knew what kind of thoughts she had in mind when she suddenly spat. She conjured a ball of flames and forced herself to focus on the world of chess.
------
The next day, Zhang Che and Huang Tielan woke up a little later than usual.
After all, they went through a huge battle yesterday. Despite being beastmasters, they were exhausted.
The two packed their belongings and exited the cave after eating their breakfast. The sky had turned bright long ago. Although they didn"t know exactly what time it was, it shouldn"t be early.
Going forward, the two needed to continue hunting exotic beasts. They would only leave the beast world after Huang Tielan advanced to Tier Six beastmaster, no matter how long it took.
However, after the battle yesterday, the exotic beasts nearby were basically wiped out. Those that survived had probably escaped far away. They"d need to travel some distance to find another area with a dense population of exotic beasts.
As such, they decided to pack up everything they owned and prepared to leave this cave which they had stayed at for more than twenty days, and find another place to set up camp.
Suddenly, Zhang Che thought of the huge battle they fought yesterday, and he immediately thought of a great idea. "Right, Tielan, we can make use of the rainbow spiritual fruit. We can save a lot of time by drawing the nearby exotic beasts to us!"
With that, they"d save at least half of the time needed for Huang Tielan to advance to Tier Six!
Although she didn"t mention it, Zhang Che could tell that she was bored of staying in the beast world and wanted to return home.
Indeed, Huang Tielan"s eyes immediately lit up at Zhang Che"s suggestion and said, "Right, why didn"t I think of that!?"
After leaving this area, the two immediately tested their idea.
As expected, the thick, delicate fragrance immediately spread out when Zhang Che took out the rainbow spiritual fruit from his spatial storage.
-This idea really works!-
The two exchanged looks and smiles, their mood lighting up.
------
During the next few days, the two used this idea to attract countless exotic beasts in the surroundings to themselves, starting b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.sacres one after another, killing so much that the two started feeling numb about it.
Fortunately, they weren"t in the core area of the beast world. No epic-quality and above exotic beasts came to them, saving them a lot of trouble, and allowing them to hunt exotic beasts without holding back.
Hunting exotic beasts in such a fas.h.i.+on was very effective.
------
After only three days, Huang Tielan could once again feel that she had reached a bottleneck.
On the 27th January, Year 37 of the new age, after Zhang Che and Huang Tielan lured and killed another huge group of exotic beasts, an intense aura finally erupted from Huang Tielan"s body.
She had finally become a Tier Six beastmaster! From then on, she could be considered to have stepped into the realm of experts!
