135: Chapter 165 The Red Spider Lily

"There is an Exotic Beast guarding it!"

Jiang Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, not feeling too surprised.

Around such Heaven And Earth Treasures, there are usually Exotic Beasts guarding them.

Exotic Beasts are spiritual and also need Heaven And Earth Treasures to improve their strength, so they will wait around some Heaven And Earth Treasures, waiting for them to mature.

Jiang Ling entered the desolate valley and instantly felt the atmosphere become oppressive and tense.

A powerful sense of oppression rushed towards him.

He looked up, and at the other end of the valley, a giant one-horned beast that looked like an ox was standing there, exuding a heart-palpitating Aura.

However, this was not an ox!

Jiang Ling narrowed his eyes slightly and asked Medusa, "Do you recognize what this Exotic Beast is?"

"This is the ancient Vicious Beast, Si!"

Medusa spoke up.

"It is extremely powerful!"

"Judging by its appearance, it is already Rank 5!"

"It is not easy to deal with; do you need my help?"

"The ancient Vicious Beast, Si?"

Jiang Ling was slightly startled.

It was actually a legendary Vicious Beast.

"It is only Rank 5; I might be able to take it down!"

Jiang Ling did not ask Medusa for help.

He needed to hone his combat skills and improve his Realm.

Swish!

His black iron great saber appeared in his hand.

Facing the Si, this legendary powerful Yao Beast.

The Si was huge, like a small mountain, its body covered in hard scales that shimmered with a cold luster.

The Si's eyes were like raging fires, full of violence and wildness.

The battle was on the verge of breaking out.

Whoosh!

Jiang Ling attacked first. His figure was like lightning as he instantly rushed towards the Si. The black iron great saber in his hand swung out violently, and a bolt of lightning tore through the sky, slashing towards the Si with an Aura that destroyed everything.

The Si let out a roar, and the sound waves shook the valley. It raised its thick claws and swiped at Jiang Ling, blocking the sharp blade radiance.

Jiang Ling snorted coldly and unleashed his Supernatural Ability with full force. The World-Ending Divine Thunder wrapped around his blade, colliding with the Si's claws. The lightning and the Si's power impacted each other, erupting with dazzling light and huge energy fluctuations.

The Si felt Jiang Ling's strength and became even more violent. It opened its bloody mouth and spewed out a stream of scorching flames, which rushed towards Jiang Ling like a torrent.

Jiang Ling flashed aside, avoiding the direct impact of the flames.

He deployed the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Steps, nimbly weaving around the Si, while his black iron great saber continuously swung out bolts of lightning, attacking the Si from all angles.

Although the Si had a huge body, its movements were not slow. It twisted its body and swept with its tail, trying to hit Jiang Ling.

Jiang Ling skillfully jumped to dodge, while seizing the opportunity to swing his blade again. This strike carried powerful lightning energy and slashed directly onto the Si's back.

The Si felt pain and let out an angry roar. Although the scales on its body were hard, they showed some cracks under the attack of the World-Ending Divine Thunder combined with the Seven Absolute Blades of the Thunder Prison.

However, the Si did not retreat; instead, its ferocity was stimulated. Shaking its head and tail, its huge single horn continuously emitted thunder and fire, and it began to attack Jiang Ling frantically, regardless of its own injuries.

Jiang Ling was fearless. He unleashed various ultimate techniques of the Seven Absolute Blades of the Thunder Prison, with blade light flashing and thunder roaring, engaging in a thrilling life-and-death battle with the Si.

During the battle, Jiang Ling's dragon scale battle armor was torn by the Si's attacks, and some wounds appeared on his body, but his eyes remained firm.

He constantly adjusted his tactics, using the speed and flexibility of his Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Steps to circle the Si.

The Si's attacks became more and more violent, but Jiang Ling's counterattacks became sharper. He perfectly combined his Supernatural Ability and Martial Skill, and every blade strike contained tremendous power.

The battle between the two sides entered a white-hot stage. The cliffs around the valley were riddled with holes by their attacks, and rubble kept falling down with a rumble.

The battle lasted for more than an hour.

Both sides were seriously injured, but no winner had been decided yet.

Finally, after a fierce collision, Jiang Ling found a flaw in the Si. He concentrated all his strength and unleashed his strongest strike.

The Seven Absolute Blades of the Thunder Prison, carrying dazzling lightning, slashed towards the Si's vital point with the momentum of a thunderbolt. The Si tried to dodge, but it was too late.

With a loud bang, the lightning pierced through the Si's body. The Si let out a final unwilling roar, and its huge body slowly fell down.

Jiang Ling stood beside the Si's corpse, panting heavily, a victorious smile on his face.

His body exuded a powerful Aura, which was the perseverance and pride after a fierce battle.

This great battle with the Si greatly improved his strength and combat experience.

"Ding! Combat caused upgrade effect to double, Realm improved by 8%!"

"Ding! Your Rank has reached Rank 40, 1.535%!"

A surging power rose from Jiang Ling's body, and Jiang Ling felt as if something in his body had been broken.

The powerful energy made him unable to help but look up and roar, the sound shaking for a thousand miles.

He had reached Rank 4!

Upon reaching Rank 4, both his body and spirit, in all aspects, had been greatly improved.

"Ding! Your Seven Absolute Blades of the Thunder Prison has reached Great Perfection!"

"Ding! Your Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Steps has reached Great Perfection!"

Continuous notification sounds rang out again; two SSS-Rank Divine Abilities had both reached Great Perfection, which took his strength to a higher level.

Jiang Ling looked at his attribute panel, and a surge of immense pride rose in his heart.

From someone who was once powerless, he had finally reached this day.

After stripping the main Materials from the Si, Jiang Ling entered the interior of the valley.

At this moment, without waiting for Jiang Ling to speak, Medusa had already swooped down from Jiang Ling's neck with a whoosh and darted inside.

Inside the valley, a layer of mist was rising, swirling around, accompanied by the sound of gentle flowing water, making one feel as if they had entered a fairyland.

Stepping into it, Jiang Ling saw another flash of red light.

Medusa had already transformed into her true form, her huge snake tail swaying back and forth, her beautiful upper body exposed, as she stretched her head towards a small flower in front.

This small flower looked only the size of a palm and was very inconspicuous, but from it, a powerful energy was being exuded.

The energy was so thick that even Jiang Ling felt a sense of heaviness.

"This is the shore flower!"

Medusa cried out in surprise.
