125: Chapter 125 The Secrets of the Beast God Gathering
Zhan Wuji continued, "You should know about the Beast God Society, right?"
"Behind this Beast God Society is an Abyss Lord that once escaped from the abyss."
"Back then, in order to surround and annihilate this escaped Abyss Lord, the country paid a huge price. Even the Heavenly Sword Bureau suffered heavy losses; three of the original five Sword Bearers were killed in battle."
"Fortunately, we finally managed to heavily injure and repel it, which allowed the Beast God Society to disappear for a while."
"Some time ago, news about the Beast God Society surfaced again. Fortunately, the Heavenly Sword Bureau acted in time, which kept the losses for our Great Xia to a minimum."
"The resurgence of the Beast God Society is most likely related to that Lord."
"However, the official explanation is that even if that Lord didn't die, it will never be able to move again. I imagine revenge is likely impossible."
Tang Mo listened quietly until Zhan Wuji finished speaking, then asked, "Are you worried that we aren't a match for that Lord?"
"It's not worry, it's just the reality."
"During the great battle back then, I was just a student and didn't have the chance to participate, so this time, I want to go and try."
"Once we find your sister's location, I will step in to distract it, and you take the opportunity to rescue her."
"At that time, we'll fight if we can win, and run if we can't."
Tang Mo: "Hmm, I think this plan is excellent."
The two hit it off immediately and set off right away.
As the two ventured deeper, the surrounding sharp, protruding rocks became more numerous, and the path became increasingly difficult to navigate.
Finally, after climbing over a huge boulder, a corner of a mountain appeared on the distant horizon.
Tang Mo and his companion exchanged a glance and then quickened their pace.
But before they had walked a few steps, a "thud" sounded from behind them.
It was as if something had fallen from the sky and landed behind them.
Tang Mo and Zhan Wuji turned around to see a ferocious beast covered in colorful feathers, with four giant wings on its back, bear claws, and a bear's head, staring intensely at them.
"No passage allowed. Those who defy will die!"
The rough, gravelly voice sounded exactly like a roaring bear. The pressure emitted from its body was so intense that even Zhan Wuji's face turned pale.
Tang Mo was in an even worse state, nearly losing his footing. He cast Scouting Technique, but all he got in return was a bunch of question marks.
"Pah! You bastard, you only bully me because I'm low-level. Just wait until I'm high-level one day; I'll definitely pin you to the ground and rub your face in it, and make you taste my domineering aura."
After cursing inwardly, Tang Mo turned his gaze to Zhan Wuji.
"Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot, Level 403."
"This guy's level is higher than mine; I'm afraid we're in for a tough fight."
"When the fight starts, remember to stay far away."
Tang Mo didn't care, saying, "It's only 13 levels higher than you. Don't boost the enemy's morale and deflate your own."
As he spoke, Tang Mo directly cast a max-level Drinking Poison to Quench Thirst on Zhan Wuji.
Zhan Wuji's total damage was instantly increased by a full 100 times.
Feeling the buff within his body, Zhan Wuji's eyes immediately lit up. "Good lad, this boost can even rival those support Professionals."
"Hey! You hairy bear, come and die!"
Zhan Wuji shouted loudly and charged straight at the Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot.
"Roar~!"
Provoked, the Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot swung a giant bear paw directly at Zhan Wuji, covering the distance between them in a single step.
The speed made Tang Mo's heart tighten. "Can Old Zhan take this?!"
Although he thought this, Tang Mo's hand speed was not slow; he immediately cast a Poison-Heal on Zhan Wuji.
A shield capable of blocking tens of millions of points of damage appeared on Zhan Wuji.
Seeing the shield on his body, Zhan Wuji relaxed completely and swung his axe even more vigorously.
"Twin Dragons Emerging from the Sea!"
In an instant, two massive golden dragon phantoms soared into the air and charged straight at the Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot.
The buffed golden dragon phantoms moved extremely fast, reaching the Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot in the blink of an eye.
"Wall of Poisonous Feathers!"
Unable to dodge in time, the Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot could only cast a defensive skill, intending to tank Zhan Wuji's attack head-on.
In its view, Zhan Wuji's level was lower than its own, so even if it tanked this move, there wouldn't be any issues.
Little did it know that Zhan Wuji's combat power at this moment could no longer be judged by common sense.
Thanks to the 100-fold boost from Tang Mo's skill, Zhan Wuji's combat power had long since far surpassed that of the Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot.
The Rage Heaven Battle Axe easily sliced through its feather wall defense before the terrified eyes of the Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot.
After a dragon's roar, the Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot was split into three.
[Killed Level 403 Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot, EXP +3, Poison Damage +2, Stamina +1, Spirit +1]
...
Tang Mo was speechless. Does giving a buff only earn him three experience points?
Suddenly, a familiar white light shone before Tang Mo's eyes; Zhan Wuji had leveled up.
"Hahaha! Leveled up! Finally leveled up! From now on, I, Zhan Wuji, am also a Level 403 Professional."
"From now on, the Professional level rankings of this world will be rewritten, and our Great Xia Country will reclaim the throne of the number one Professional level."
The reason Zhan Wuji was so excited was entirely because the throne of the number one Professional level had always been occupied by a Vampire Professional from Eagle Sauce Country named Barker Solomon.
Tang Mo had previously seen this Barker Solomon's level: Level 402, exactly one level lower than Zhan Wuji at this moment.
After shouting, Zhan Wuji immediately rushed toward the corpse of the Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot.
"Shoes, shoes, I just saw you, my battle boots."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhan Wuji scooped up a pair of supreme-grade equipment battle boots from the pile of loot with both hands; they were even Level 400 boots.
At this moment, Zhan Wuji was dancing with joy, showing no trace of a Dean's demeanor.
Turning back, Zhan Wuji picked a few more pieces of equipment from the pile of loot and then left the rest alone.
Tang Mo stepped forward and took a glance, discovering they were all Diamond-grade equipment. No wonder he didn't want them; it turned out he thought the equipment grade was too low.
This made Tang Mo recall when he gave equipment to Wang Kaiwen; that guy almost called Tang Mo "daddy" upon seeing Gold-grade equipment.
Yet the one in front of him was turning his nose up at Diamond-grade equipment. It really is a case of "the rich have meat and wine to spare, while the poor die of hunger on the road."
Shaking his head, Tang Mo silently stepped forward to pick up the equipment. Zhan Wuji might look down on it, but he, Tang Mo, certainly did not; it was just right for gaining some skill points.
Zhan Wuji didn't say anything. After all, the stats of those pieces of equipment were not in the same league as his own supreme-grade equipment; leaving them would just be a waste, so he might as well let this kid Tang Mo pick them up.
It's all in the family, after all.
After dealing with the items, Tang Mo and Zhan Wuji began to continue walking towards the mountain peak.
After Tang Mo and the other left, a rock beside the Poison-Winged Bear-Parrot suddenly opened its eyes.
Subsequently, the rock gradually transformed into a tortoise with a shell composed entirely of dense bones.
