99: Bone-eating ant queen, a bumper harvest

“Damn it, I'll risk it!”

Feeling the Night Wing Demon's stamina, if he dragged it out any longer, he would surely die.

“Shadow Acceleration,” “Night Concealment.”

The Night Wing Demon’s speed instantly reached its peak, his body almost invisible, and he charged directly at Minister Jin.

Screech~ Rip!

With a slash of his bone blade, this time, he didn't attack Minister Jin directly, but rather the Blazing Golden Peng.

Minister Jin had a possessed beast attached to him, so a single attack would be ineffective.

The Blazing Golden Peng, however, was miserable. Unable to dodge, it suffered a direct hit, leaving a half-meter deep wound on its body, and blood splattered across the Vast Sky.

Minister Jin had no choice but to recall it, while he himself jumped onto the Eagle King’s back.

“Are you alright?” Qin Yan asked with concern.

“I won’t die, but I’ll probably need a few months to recover. This time, I’ve suffered a huge loss!”

Minister Jin gave a bitter smile, but he didn't regret it.

“It’s not a loss, as long as we kill him.”

Qin Yan said fiercely.

“Kill me? The mountains are high and the roads are long, we’ll meet again…”

After speaking, Wu Dahai, taking advantage of the remaining duration of the Night Wing Demon’s skill, turned and fled.

Now, Minister Jin’s flying beast was severely injured, leaving only Qin Yan’s Eagle King.

Carrying two people, aerial combat would definitely not be as coordinated as Wu Dahai’s side.

However, the Night Wing Demon had used a burst skill and would be weak for a period. As long as he endured it, Wu Dahai would be safe.

As for a counter-kill?

Dream on!

Worst case, they wouldn't engage in aerial combat. There were still so many forces on the ground!

“Want to escape? Can you escape?”

The Night Wing Demon had entered a defensive weak period, which was the best time to strike.

Suddenly, the Night Wing Demon’s abdomen instantly split open, its chest cavity tore a large hole, and large chunks of flesh directly disappeared.

“Ow… Roar!”

The Night Wing Demon screamed in agony and fell straight from the sky, crashing heavily onto a building.

Wu Dahai didn't recall it because there was no need; the Night Wing Demon was already dead.

And he was currently suffering from a Soul backlash.

Qin Yan’s last beast, which had previously been dispersed into countless small parts, hadn't made a Move.

During the fight, small insects constantly stuck to the Night Wing Demon’s fur, and no one paid them any attention.

Once it struck, it was a fatal blow.

The Bone-Eroding Ant Queen!

Earlier outside the city, Qin Yan also had it act as Lin Chuan’s bodyguard.

After Qin Yan became famous, this beast rarely appeared in public, mainly because its Moves were too sinister, and once it struck, it was a guaranteed kill.

“Old Qin, you’re amazing!”

Minister Jin gasped. They had known each other for many years, and he almost didn't know that Qin Yan’s beast was so powerful.

“It’s nothing special. The conditions for a successful sneak attack are too strict; it was just a prepared mind against an unprepared one.”

Qin Yan said modestly, but his eyes couldn't hide his smugness.

Minister Jin’s admiration was genuine. He had secretly thought that Old Qin was slacking off and dragging him along as a strongman, but he didn’t expect him to have such a sinister trick prepared.

Fortunately, Old Qin was a friend, not an enemy; otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died without realizing it.

“Alright, let’s resolve this quickly, lest delays cause trouble.”

After speaking, several beasts below charged directly towards where the Night Wing Demon fell, searching for Wu Dahai's traces... “Boom... Boom... Crack!”

At the warehouse, after the assault of three Commander Rank beasts, even though it was reinforced with special Materials, it was almost breached in less than a minute.

This was also because the Chief Priest’s three beasts were not strength-based. Otherwise, it might have only taken a few seconds.

“Chief Priest, what are you doing…?”

The person inside, feigning courage, asked what he already knew.

“Elder is about to sacrifice himself for the cult. I must naturally leave here with the supplies to minimize losses.”

The Black-Clothed Chief Priest spoke grandiosely.

“…”

The person inside no longer wasted words and silently summoned his own beast.

No matter what, they wouldn't survive today.

Whether they cooperated or not, the Black-Clothed Chief Priest would not let them go.

The few people were only Silver Rank, and in front of the Chief Priest’s three Commander Rank beasts, they were like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

“Overestimating yourselves. Wouldn’t it be better to just die obediently? We are all members of the Demon God Cult. Aren’t the resources the same in my hands? Hahahaha…”

As the Chief Priest’s words fell, the warehouse was breached, and what followed was a massacre.

“Let you be proud!”

【Soul Spike】

Lin Chuan had been watching this long drama, wasn't he just waiting for this moment!

“Ah!”

The Black-Clothed Chief Priest suddenly let out a strange cry, as if struck by lightning.

A piercing pain that reached his very bone marrow almost made him collapse to the ground.

“Elder?”

The Chief Priest panicked, thinking Wu Dahai was punishing him with some method, and for a moment, he dared not Move.

【Void Sword】

Lin Chuan controlled the distance, and a spatial rift opened before his eyes. The other end was precisely inside the warehouse.

This time, it succeeded.

Without further hesitation, Lin Chuan flashed inside.

The warehouse wasn't large, only about the size of a basketball court, filled with various supplies.

Lin Chuan didn't even look at basic supplies like equipment, Ore Materials, or Medicinal Herbs; he just skipped over them.

Lin Chuan couldn't take these things with him; his Storage Ring was on his main body.

His targets were only Spirit Stones, Yao Beast crystal cores, and similar items.

As for Yao Beast flesh, there shouldn't be any; there were no freezing facilities here.

Time was short, so Lin Chuan quickly searched, sensing the changes in Spiritual Qi concentration.

These supplies were originally meant for immediate use and were not specially hidden; they were even categorized and stored.

Soon, Lin Chuan found them on a row of shelves against the wall.

First were the crystal cores, which he absorbed directly.

Over a dozen Commander Rank and two Monarch Rank crystal cores were converted into two 【rank fruit】, corresponding to Commander Rank and Monarch Rank respectively.

The hundreds of Elite Rank ones in the box were all converted, yielding over a thousand red 【skill fruit】.

As for Spirit Stones, there were also several large boxes, conservatively estimated to be over ten thousand.

Absorb them all!

Old Hei and Little Ling in the sea of consciousness space were almost going crazy.

Tens of thousands more of the most delicious green fruits appeared all at once!

Especially Little Ling, the master was too stingy before, only ten per day, which was not enough at all!

Although he had promised his master, still... seeing the trees full of fruits before him, Little Ling couldn't resist and started eating directly.

With so many, eating a few hundred himself should be fine, right?

Oh, and there's the big Turtle, too. He also needs a few benefits, otherwise, he'll tell on me... In less than twenty seconds, Lin Chuan didn't even have time to see how many fruits he had absorbed and converted.

Anyway, as long as it could be absorbed, he didn't let it go.

Only by absorbing it into himself did it count as his own; anything else didn't count.

Most of the Demon God Cult’s supplies would probably be confiscated.

He took such a big risk; it wasn't too much to collect some reward in advance, was it?

“Oh, and there are demon god pills.”

Although Lin Chuan wouldn't take them, he could try absorbing them; it should be fine.

The demon god pills were placed on a shelf closer to the outside, considered a commonly used resource.

Lin Chuan moved lightly, trying not to make any noise.

A bottle of demon god pills contained ten black Medicinal Pill the size of green beans.

They emitted bursts of exotic fragrance, specifically for beasts.

If Old Hei and Little Ling weren't confined in the sea of consciousness space, they would probably be drooling.

Absorb!

The ten Medicinal Pill instantly disappeared, turning into dozens of 【energy fruit】.

Besides this, what concerned Lin Chuan the most was a faint gray aura that was absorbed, forming the bud of a gray fruit at the end of that gray twig.

Gray fruit?

Lin Chuan sensed it and immediately understood.

【soul fruit】 absorbs high-quality Soul energy and can be ripened. Consuming it as a Soul body can increase one's rank.

High-quality Soul energy?

Lin Chuan didn't understand, but it must be a special component in the demon god pill.

Never mind, absorb first as a sign of respect…
