8: Kill with one blow, experience slot?
The Golden Armor Fire Ape grabbed Li Yao by the waist, easily lifted him, and started climbing up a thirty-meter-tall Osmanthus Tree nearby.
In a flash, it was already on the tree branch.
Soon after, a One-Eyed White Wolf with a single eye passed by below.
As it passed, its nose seemed to sniff the surrounding air.
And when it passed directly under the Osmanthus Tree where Li Yao and his Beast Master were, its nose suddenly twitched sensitively, as if it had discovered something, and it began to look around.
Clearly, their scent had been detected by this Beast.
Li Yao glanced at the intelligence he had on the Nanshan Secret Realm.
This Beast was called the One-Eyed White Wolf, and its strength was approximately Soldier-Level Seven.
Its single eye possessed a special ability; if one made eye contact with the One-Eyed White Wolf, it was easy to be enchanted by it.
In addition to its unique eye, the One-Eyed White Wolf's claws were also extremely sharp.
Fortunately, most One-Eyed White Wolves were solitary Beasts; except for a few instances where they gathered in groups, they usually hunted alone.
Below, the One-Eyed White Wolf was continuously sniffing the lingering Qi in the air.
Above, on the Osmanthus Tree branch, Li Yao felt that if they continued to remain still, they would most likely be discovered by the One-Eyed White Wolf.
That would be troublesome.
Therefore, they had to strike first!
After giving the Golden Armor Fire Ape a look, the Golden Armor Fire Ape immediately knew what Li Yao wanted to do.
Li Yao took out a two-meter-long metal staff from his spatial backpack.
This was a specially forged tool, capable of extending and retracting.
Li Zun had originally intended for Li Yao to use this telescopic staff to poke things when he couldn't reach them.
Now, it could be perfectly used by the Golden Armor Fire Ape.
The Golden Armor Fire Ape took the telescopic staff that Li Yao handed over, and immediately, a familiar feeling arose from within.
It was as if it was born to wield a staff.
With the telescopic staff as a weapon, one of the Golden Armor Fire Ape's skills, Staff Mastery, was instantly activated.
Holding the telescopic staff, it leaped directly from the twenty-meter-high Osmanthus Tree branch.
The weight of the telescopic staff increased with its length.
Now, in the Golden Armor Fire Ape's hand, it had extended to three meters long!
Its weight was a full fifty kilograms!
At the moment it raised it above its head to deliver a blow to the One-Eyed White Wolf.
The instant the telescopic staff smashed down, the air was almost torn apart, making a whooshing sound.
Hearing the sound, the One-Eyed White Wolf suddenly looked up and immediately spotted the Golden Armor Fire Ape descending with the telescopic staff.
However, by the time it noticed, the telescopic staff was still a meter away from the One-Eyed White Wolf's head.
Its nerves reacted, but its body had not yet responded.
Thud!!!
With a loud bang, the telescopic staff directly struck the One-Eyed White Wolf's forehead, instantly splitting its head open.
A mixture of red and white immediately burst from the One-Eyed White Wolf's head, exploding instantly.
The One-Eyed White Wolf was instantly killed with one blow!
After successfully killing the One-Eyed White Wolf, the Golden Armor Fire Ape was incredibly excited.
At the same time, a white Qi, imperceptible to the naked eye, directly entered the Golden Armor Fire Ape's body from the One-Eyed White Wolf's body, which should have been dead.
This white Qi, like a warm current, warmed the Golden Armor Fire Ape's body.
Ding, the Golden Armor Fire Ape successfully killed the One-Eyed White Wolf, gaining +120 experience points.
The moment the System's notification sounded, Li Yao was stunned.
What was going on?
Gaining experience points from killing?
He clicked to view the Golden Armor Fire Ape's panel.
Species: Golden Armor Fire Ape
Quality: Epic Grade
Strength: Soldier-Level Five [120/500]
Skills: Blazing Fire Entanglement, Staff Mastery, Copper Skin Iron Bones
Equipment: Telescopic Staff [Blue]
[Hidden Evolution] (Evolution criteria not met)
Besides the strength section, the Golden Armor Fire Ape's panel also showed an experience bar and an equipment prompt.
“It seems my Golden Finger can not only see the hidden evolution of Beasts but also activate their experience bar.”
“If my guess is correct, once this experience bar reaches five hundred, its strength will likely increase.”
After all, who hasn't played online games?
After the Golden Armor Fire Ape reacted, it immediately thought of something.
Soon, it took Li Yao down from the Osmanthus Tree branch.
Li Yao came to the One-Eyed White Wolf's corpse.
He looked at the gruesome state of the One-Eyed White Wolf and couldn't help but shake his head.
It was truly horrific; its head was directly blown apart.
Even its eyeball was sent flying tens of meters away.
“So brutal.”
Originally, with the One-Eyed White Wolf's strength, even with the Golden Armor Fire Ape's Epic Grade quality, it would have taken some effort to barely defeat it.
But, because it was ambushed, combined with the hundred-jin heavy staff dropped from tens of meters high, and the Golden Armor Fire Ape's strength, all contributed.
Only then could it blow up the One-Eyed White Wolf's head with one blow, killing it instantly.
After the One-Eyed White Wolf died, Li Yao immediately collected its eyeball.
After all, the most important Materials from the One-Eyed White Wolf were its claws, fur, and of course, its eyeball.
One eyeball could sell for ten thousand yuan.
If it were a normal Beast Master, they would probably only collect the valuable parts, leaving the rest of the body to be consumed by other Beasts.
However, Li Yao, adhering to the principle of not wasting anything, decided to collect the One-Eyed White Wolf's body using a corpse collection bag.
Anyway, the corpse collection bag was also a spatial item and had the ability to preserve freshness.
Under Li Yao's operation, the three-meter-long body of the One-Eyed White Wolf was soon collected.
It seemed his luck wasn't very good this time, as he didn't get a key.
However, Li Yao wasn't discouraged; after all, keys weren't that easy to drop.
And Li Yao collected the body for another purpose.
That was to prevent the scent of blood from the corpse from leaking out and causing unnecessary problems.
“Let's go, continue deeper.”
Of course, the so-called deeper was just a little further.
He didn't think that because the Golden Armor Fire Ape had killed a Soldier-Level Seven One-Eyed White Wolf with one blow, he could become complacent and consider himself invincible.
In the Secret Realm, accidents were frequent; if he wasn't cautious, who knew what uncontrollable things might happen.
About three minutes after Li Yao left, a Gale Hound and six people arrived in the area.
Upon reaching the area, the Gale Hound barked a few times towards where the One-Eyed White Wolf had died.
