20: Chapter 20: Distributing Magical Artifacts, Everyone Working Together

Boom!

Sure enough, in the next second, that Divine Sea Realm blue-white Thunder Tiger soared into the air.

Its body was covered in lightning as it crashed toward Lu Wu with terrifying force, its speed incredibly fast.

Bang!

Lu Wu reacted quickly, but he still underestimated the power of the Divine Sea Realm and was instantly knocked down.

"Lu Wu!" Xia Qinger cried out in panic, wanting to rush forward but was pulled back by Li Tan.

"Going there is just seeking death. We have to find an opportunity to save him, don't just charge in blindly," Li Tan said.

"Cover me," Chen Xing spoke up.

Without explaining further, he reached out and performed the Light Technique, transforming it into a rope that quickly flew out.

"Understood."

Li Tan and Zhou Chen nodded; one drew his blade and the other roared as lightning and blood-qi condensed and flew out.

The Divine Sea Realm Thunder Tiger looked down and saw that they were actually heading for its mate, so it abandoned its attack and turned to protect the female tiger.

This gave Chen Xing an opportunity; the light rope wrapped around Lu Wu's waist, and with a hard pull, he dragged him back.

"How do you feel?" Xia Qinger immediately stepped forward, performing Light Healing to treat his injuries.

"I'm fine!" Lu Wu said with a cold face, pushing her away.

He looked at the man who had just saved him, and although he was proud, he still whispered, "Thank you!"

Chen Xing nodded. "Don't be reckless. That Thunder Tiger is in the Divine Sea Realm; the only reason you didn't die just now is that your Protective Magical Artifact was tough enough."

Lu Wu remained silent; his clothes were ornate, but they weren't just for show—they also functioned as a Protective Magical Artifact.

In that moment just now, he had enveloped himself in flames, which combined with the artifact to negate most of the damage, allowing him to still be up and active.

"Let's go, this beast is not to be trifled with," Li Tan said.

"We can fight it, no rush." However, this time it was Chen Xing who countered.

"What?" Li Tan was surprised.

"I think we can fight too. Young Lu has a B-grade Ability; as long as we coordinate properly, a Divine Sea Realm kill isn't impossible!" Zhou Chen grinned.

"I think you've gone mad. Challenging someone above your level is something only a Genius can do; what does that have to do with us?" Li Tan cursed loudly.

"It's fine, I am a Genius; I was just careless earlier," Lu Wu said bluntly.

Chen Xing: "..."

Buddy, if you really can't tell, go find a mirror and take a look at yourself.

No joke, if they were on opposing sides, he felt defeating the other would only take one Light-Speed Punch; he wouldn't even need to use the Crown.

Boom!

Before anyone else could say anything, Lu Wu erupted again, raging flames enveloping his entire body.

His power seemed several points stronger than before, as if this was his true full strength.

Lu Wu carried a storage device with him; with a flick of his hand, he pulled out a Crimson Longblade with a flame pattern decorating the hilt.

Magical Artifacts of the same attribute could increase lethality by two or three times, but their cost was also extremely high.

"This guy... his family must have significant influence. He's covered in precious Magical Artifacts; no wonder he's so confident," Chen Xing thought to himself.

"Take these, consider them a gift to you all." At that moment, Lu Wu pulled out several more weapons and generously tossed them to the group.

Li Tan caught one and looked down to find that the Magical Artifact in his hand was actually a Thunder Blade; he was instantly overjoyed.

Thus, he decisively performed a Fusion of the two Thunder Blades; this was a special effect of weapon-type abilities, compensating for their weakness of not being able to use standard Magical Artifacts.

As long as the attributes matched, they could fuse or disassemble at any time.

"Good stuff!" What Zhou Chen received was a heavy Broadsword; as a Beast-type Ability user with a powerful physique, it was just right for him.

"If you had these things, you should have said so earlier! Let's take him down together!" Zhou Chen grinned.

"It's coming, get out of the way!" Xia Qinger shouted.

Immediately, Li Tan took Chen Xing and moved away.

Boom!

While they were chatting for those few moments, the male Thunder Tiger had finished comforting its mate and immediately attacked.

Staying here for so long—if that wasn't a provocation, what was? The Thunder Tiger became even more enraged.

Zhou Chen dodged to the side, while Lu Wu flew off with Xia Qinger.

"Stay hidden, hide behind me." Li Tan led his person into the jungle.

"What is this?" Chen Xing had a strange expression; the others got blades or swords, but what Lu Wu gave him was actually a Golden Staff!

"I think I've seen something similar; this kind of Magical Artifact can greatly enhance the power of the Support Class. Figure it out first, and remember to provide support," Li Tan said, then turned into lightning and flashed away.

Chen Xing tapped the pentagram pattern on top of the staff and was suddenly moved to frustrated laughter.

Just because I haven't attacked, you really take me for a support?

Dong!

With the help of the Magical Artifacts, the group's attack power all increased, and the impact was quite impressive.

This Thunder Tiger seemed to have only recently reached the Divine Sea Realm; outnumbered, it actually fell into a disadvantage for a moment.

This time, Lu Wu had learned his lesson; if he saw the Thunder Tiger about to take to the sky, he immediately landed.

Once he landed, the attacks from Li Tan and Zhou Chen would fly in; with the three of them besieging it, the Thunder Tiger couldn't gain any ground.

If it weren't for its vast power as a Divine Sea Realm creature, its body would have been pierced by the Magical Artifacts long ago.

This was a major advantage for humans; although they didn't have such terrifying physiques, they had hands that could forge weapons.

In the eyes of Yao Beasts, humans weren't weak monkeys, but rather a group of terrifying upright-walking Great Apes!

"Good, just like that, keep it up!" Unconsciously, Lu Wu began to take command.

"Keep going!" Xia Qinger was in the woods behind them, also holding a staff in her hand.

Roar!

Suddenly, the Thunder Tiger erupted in a sudden charge, its massive tiger paw swatting Zhou Chen away, knocking down several large trees in a row.

Xia Qinger gripped her staff tightly and closed her eyes as a holy radiance shone forth.

Buzz!

Half of Zhou Chen's body had been torn open and charred black by electricity, but under the healing light, he actually regained his mobility and his wounds began to close.

"Heh... luckily my reactions are fast, I was only grazed!" He chuckled and charged back up again.

"Truly terrifying; he wasn't even hit by the palm, just blown away by the lightning. A Divine Sea Realm Yao Beast is indeed extraordinary!" Xia Qinger marveled inwardly.

If it were an injury from a normal Yao Beast, she could have restored him in an instant, but the Thunder Tiger's power was too strong; she could only mend about seventy or eighty percent of it.

While one side was locked in a bitter struggle, the other side became interesting.

Chen Xing had intended to strike, only to find another Thunder Tiger crouching not far away—it was precisely that ninth-stage Light Opening Realm female tiger from before.

"No way, it's smart enough to know to circle around and take out the support first?" Chen Xing's expression was peculiar.

"Just as well, my hands were getting itchy anyway." He smiled slightly.

At the same time, the female tiger quietly approached, charging up lightning, ready to erupt at any moment.

Roar!

Two seconds later, it lunged forward.
