119: Big things bring big troubles (Bonus Chapter 2)
“One thousand green ones for you, and another thousand red ones. Is that enough?”
Lin Chuan wasn't sure which fruits would work, so he could only give some of the more numerous ones.
Judging by White Moon’s reaction, they were all quite delicious anyway.
“Mmm-hmm…” ~o(=∩ω∩=)m
White Moon’s cat face showed a happy smile. Not only was it enough, it was more than enough! Lin Chuan was a big spender~
I’ll give ten to the big fish later, and the rest are all mine, meow~~
Now, she finally realized that her luck had exploded precisely so she could meet Lin Chuan!
“I’m going first. Wait here!”
Then, White Moon instantly vanished.
A moment later, White Moon returned.
She not only brought back the old man’s corpse but also the corpses of two Monarch Rank Yao Beasts.
“The big guy said he doesn’t like eating bugs, so he gave them to you too.”
White Moon said indifferently.
“Given to me? It knows I exist?”
Lin Chuan asked, puzzled.
“Of course, silly. You were openly peeking. Did you think it was blind?”
“…”
Lin Chuan had been a bit too naive. He immediately reflected that Yao Beasts of this rank had intelligence no different from humans. If he continued with his old way of thinking, he would sooner or later make a huge mistake.
Actually, Lin Chuan couldn’t be blamed. Who at his rank interacted with Diamond Rank and King Rank Yao Beasts every day?
Without a strong heart, one truly couldn’t bear it.
“Thank it for me.”
With that, Lin Chuan directly absorbed both Yao Beasts.
The two Monarch Rank Yao Beasts provided another rank fruit with a 9% effect and over three hundred enhancement fruits.
In total, all four of the old man’s Monarch Rank tamed beasts were absorbed by Lin Chuan… Indeed, no one who opposed Lin Chuan had a good end.
At this point, Lin Chuan’s immunity to Monarch Rank had reached 22%. Although it was still an instant kill, it was at least steadily improving.
To truly see the effect, he would probably have to wait until Lin Chuan reached Gold Rank.
Then, Gray Snake finally returned.
Additionally, on the old man’s body, there was a small instrument flashing red light, which was used to seal Lin Chuan’s wristband.
As long as he destroyed it, Lin Chuan could immediately teleport out.
However, Lin Chuan wasn’t in a hurry to leave for now; at least, he had to wait for Old Black to fully recover. In a few more hours, Old Black’s [Extreme Healing] would be available for use.
“Oh, right, the big guy wants to see you.”
“See me?”
Lin Chuan asked, puzzled.
To be honest, he was a bit scared; he wasn't even enough to fill its teeth.
“Yes, don’t worry, the big guy won’t eat you. I’ll protect you!”
White Moon patted her chest with her cat paw and said.
“Okay, I’ll go in a few hours.”
Even if White Moon was unreliable, Lin Chuan should still have enough time to teleport out.
To be honest, Lin Chuan was also curious about what kind of Divine Beast this enormous Yao Beast truly was… In another corner of the Secret Realm.
Xia Yuan was engulfed in rolling demonic flames, holding his shadowy longblade. He had slain the two Monarch Rank Yao Beasts the opponent had left to cover their retreat. The dark green blood corroded the surrounding thousand meters of land, leaving no blade of grass alive.
Although he had won effortlessly, Xia Yuan’s eyes were exceptionally gloomy.
There was clearly more than one Diamond Rank invading this Secret Realm. Since there were none in this direction, it meant Lin Chuan must be in another direction.
The crucial point was that the longer this dragged on, the less time there would be.
Moreover, his side would definitely be harassed and entangled.
“If I don’t teleport all the students out, I can still inquire about Lin Chuan’s whereabouts, and at worst, I can tie up these people’s hands and feet…”
At this moment, the demonic flames on Xia Yuan intensified, then were suppressed again.
“Hmph! Then I’ll cut you all down first.”
After speaking, Xia Yuan accelerated, chasing in the direction the opponent had fled… Lin Chuan retrieved his backpack from the lake, put on his clothes, and took a shallow nap.
Eight or nine hours later.
“I’m hungry!”
Lin Chuan was woken by Old Black.
“Damn it, all you know is eat!”
Lin Chuan cursed with a laugh.
As soon as [Extreme Healing] cooled down, Old Black used it himself.
Lin Chuan fed Old Black several hundred energy fruits at once before he was finally full.
Immediately, Lin Chuan felt a new surge of strength in his limbs.
He sensed it and realized he was now Silver Six-Star.
He then dismissed it. It was just a star upgrade, no need to pay too much attention. Old Black had been Five-Star until now, eating thousands of fruits; it would be strange if he hadn’t leveled up.
“Old Black, let’s go. Let’s meet your ‘big’ brother.”
Whether he was a brother or not, he was certainly big.
This time, he didn’t ask White Moon to teleport him. Instead, he sat on Old Black’s back and flew directly towards the center of the water.
“Woo…”
Not long after they set off, Lin Chuan heard the big fish’s cry.
Through Gray Snake, he hadn’t felt much, but being there in person, he felt the shock.
Just a sound made him tremble.
Forcing down the nervousness in his heart, Lin Chuan waited for the big fish to appear.
At this moment, a huge wave suddenly surged on the water’s surface.
Then, the fish’s back, like a small island, gradually emerged from the water, directly lifting Old Black.
“You’re here!”
A deep, booming male voice appeared in Lin Chuan’s mind.
“Big guy!” White Moon leaped off Old Black’s back and, with a few flashes, jumped onto the big fish’s head.
“Senior!” Lin Chuan greeted, feeling a bit reserved.
He couldn’t help it; the other party was a Yao Beast after all, and whether it was friend or foe was still unclear.
“Big brother!” Old Black also greeted.
Although he couldn’t speak, Lin Chuan still knew his thoughts.
Lin Chuan: “???”
Old Black, you truly are bold.
“Haha…”
Fortunately, the other party didn’t seem to mind.
The big fish seemed to have a purpose, carrying Old Black and Lin Chuan, swimming directly towards the center of the water.
Lin Chuan naturally could only follow it. Since he was already here, he had to see what the other party’s purpose was.
The old man’s guess was correct; this one was not King Rank, but was indeed advancing:
Yao Beast: Long Ming (King Rank (Advancing))
Skills:
Tsunami lv9 (Active…)
Rain Prayer lv9 (Active…)
Storm lv9 (Active…)
Air Control lv9 (Active…)
…Dragon Clan Bloodline (Passive, Bloodline exclusive. Bathed in True Dragon Blood, potential increased)
Kunpeng Body lv1 (Passive, Race exclusive. Each advancement, body size increases tenfold.)
Potential: King Rank Nine-Star
A standard Divine Beast template, Lin Chuan said he couldn’t help but envy it.
If there really was True Dragon Blood for him to bathe in, could his potential even increase to Divine-Grade?
What caught Lin Chuan’s attention was why its [Kunpeng Body] was still lv1. Logically, it should be easy to max out.
If it reached lv9, it would probably be more than ten thousand meters.
Plus, once this guy reached King Rank, it would increase another 10 times.
Hiss… A giant beast of one hundred thousand meters, could this body of water sustain it?
He originally thought Old Black at several hundred meters was something to be proud of, but compared to this, he really was a little brother!!
Thinking this, Lin Chuan finally understood why it hadn’t upgraded its [Kunpeng Body].
Sometimes, being too big was also a kind of trouble! One couldn’t bear it.
Riding the wind and waves, they swam over a hundred li before finally reaching their destination.
Before them was a small island.
The island was covered in medicinal herbs and spiritual fruits, untouched by human feet.
White Moon let out a ‘meow’ and directly rushed into the woods.
“You two go to the island first. I’ll prepare something.”
After setting Lin Chuan down, Long Ming dove back under, disappearing from sight.
