Free Web NovelThey were shrouded in bad luck, not only landing in an area where Vulture Cicada Alfalfa extensively bred and resided, but also precisely in the central zone of the Abyss Secret Realm.
This also meant that the Vulture Cicada Alfalfa group possessed terrifying strength; otherwise, they wouldn't be qualified to thrive and expand in the central area.
A quick scan revealed that this group of Vulture Cicada Alfalfa included two Saint-level, five Emperor-level, and a large number whose strength exceeded General-level.
Numerous and powerful.
Unbearable.
"I should have used a Wish Scroll to make a wish beforehand. Even landing in the inner perimeter would have been better than in the central area."
Mingxi also felt a little regretful.
She herself naturally didn't care, but her elderly father was a C-rank Beastmaster who had recently been immobile and hadn't engaged in actual combat for over a decade.
In her daughter's eyes, he was even more fragile than a newborn baby.
To put it bluntly, any random junior among this Vulture Cicada Alfalfa group could deliver a fatal blow to her father.
To protect her hard-won father, Mingxi directly dispatched her two formidable companions, Emerald Green and Red Jade.
They were solely responsible for protecting Ming Zhiyun's safety.
Red Jade was a steel shield, with the best defense on the field.
Emerald Green possessed the divine skill of Life Sharing, and it was also a grass-type Transcendent creature, allowing it to better perceive the movements of the Vulture Cicada Alfalfa groups.
Golden Yuanbao and Bright Crystal proactively engaged the two Saint-level Vulture Cicada Alfalfa, initiating difficult 1v1 battles amidst interference from other Vulture Cicada Alfalfa.
Little Silver Flower, Lan Yue Liang, and Black Pearl, in conjunction with Lin Chen's Di Gou Mole, confronted the other Emperor-level ones!
Full power ahead!
Intense explosions and dazzling skill fireworks swirled like a symphony above this hidden, dark jungle.
"Qianshan Path, we should get to work too!"
After evening the playing field to ensure no major issues for their side and handing over command to Lin Chen, Mingxi was also ready to stretch her limbs.
After all, she was a beautiful young girl capable of single-handedly fighting Venerable-level pet beasts.
Cough.
Although she relied on external forces.
But external forces were still forces, and she was indeed very strong.
"This Venerable has been waiting impatiently."
Qianshan Path was already eager to begin.
A giant axe appeared in the young girl's hand.
"Black Pearl, come help me collect heads."
Mingxi called out to Black Pearl; she didn't get bonus time for defeating Transcendent creatures. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
To not waste her and Qianshan Path's efforts, having Black Pearl collect the heads yielded the greatest benefit.
It was also the most skilled at it.
"As."
Mingxi's aura instantly surged, and wielding the mountain-splitting axe, she plunged into a group of King-level Vulture Cicada Alfalfa like a wolf entering a sheepfold.
She spun around, the axe wind carrying sharp explosive sounds.
Her attacks were as swift as thunder when fast, and as graceful as a swimming dragon when slow; each strike was like a mountain collapse or a tsunami, forcefully tearing through the enemy's defensive line.
The moment a rain of petals and grass blades poured down, she swung her long axe back to block, the sparks from the skill colliding with metal scattering like stars, and the trajectory of the axe blade's rotation intertwined into an impenetrable net.
With one swing of Mingxi's axe, a flurry of grass blades flew.
Chirp, chirp, chirp sounds were continuous.
Quite cute, actually.
"Xiao Xi, combined with Qianshan Path, that combat power is a bit terrifying."
Chu Fengfeng rubbed his arm, getting goosebumps.
He was considered well-traveled, but a Beast Tamer, especially such a young one, whose own combat power could rival Emperor-level or even Saint-level Transcendent creatures, was something he had never heard of.
He then looked at Ming Zhiyun, who was staring intently at his daughter.
If he could have a daughter like that, let alone suffering for ten or twenty years, he'd be willing to suffer for two hundred years.
Envy.
Jealousy.
"Xiao Xi's movement speed and attack speed have both become faster, and her control of the battle rhythm is fluid and natural."
Lin Chen was also a Beast Tamer focused on personal improvement.
He instantly judged Mingxi's changes: "Not only her combat prowess, but her physical endurance level should have also improved."
"Who would have thought that Xiao Xi is only 16 years old?"
Chen Xin also sighed in agreement.
"She has endured a lot."
Ming Zhiyun, however, did not share their ease; he felt more of his daughter falling into crisis again and again, getting injured again and again over the years...
Only through constant tempering in life-and-death situations could a young girl possess such terrifying combat power.
He was both relieved by his daughter's growth and pained by the hardships she endured during her development.
The three were stunned.
Chu Fengfeng patted Ming Zhiyun, "Brother, jade cannot be shaped without carving, and strength in life is never gained without effort."
"I know."
Knowing was one thing, but Ming Zhiyun still felt heartbroken.
If he, as a father, hadn't been so useless, Mingxi could have grown up steadily and methodically like other children.
Mingxi didn't know about her old father's sentimentality; she had already gone berserk at this point.
Vulture Cicada Alfalfa are extremely proficient in offense and defense among grass-type Transcendent creatures; they can transform their limbs into various forms of species using the cicada exuviae on their bodies.
Moreover, their skill burst speed is extremely fast, with almost no wind-up time.
Thorns, blood vines, flying leaves.
Eagle cries, snake hisses, dragon roars.
Endless variations, constantly emerging, full of tricks.
"Vulture!"
Vines intertwined into a Heaven and Earth Net, spore bombs exploded overhead into acid rain, and ground spikes continuously broke through the earth like fangs.
Mingxi fought more and more wildly, the battle axe in her hand seemingly an extension of her limbs.
She diagonally chopped and launched the sharp teeth of pitcher plant buds, spun to slice through vine walls, blocked venomous thorns with the back of her axe, and with a backhanded upward slash, knocked out an entire Vulture Cicada Alfalfa.
Her movements became increasingly agile and fluid.
Her progress was visible to the naked eye.
And Black Pearl, closely following Mingxi, also went wild; it didn't bother with anything flashy, never using {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} Water Burst when a rapid Water Arrow could solve the problem.
It focused on decisive action, slaughtering Vulture Cicada Alfalfa like mowing grass!
"【Detecting the owner's Aninos... 】"
The 'background' broadcast voice came one after another, Guangguang's mouth was almost worn out from speaking so much.
And Mingxi's chopping movements became even more nimble.
Who else but me can seize the bonus time?
"Sigh."
It sighed.
"The Vulture Cicada Alfalfa are truly unlucky to encounter you all."
Given the ferocity of its owner and the Yuanshi Demon Phoenix and the others, let alone only two Saint-level creatures in this group of Vulture Cicada Alfalfa, even if there were two Venerable-level ones guarding them, it would be hard to say who would ultimately suffer.
Although Mingxi and her companions generally wouldn't kill wild Transcendent creatures, knocking them out or crippling them was inevitable.
These Vulture Cicada Alfalfa, how pitiful.
Chen Xin shared Guangguang's sentiment; she no longer felt the Abyss Secret Realm was dangerous at all, instead feeling a complete sense of security.
Because the current situation was clear: Mingxi and her pet beasts were a hundred times more dangerous than the Vulture Cicada Alfalfa.
Seeing Golden Yuanbao and Bright Crystal each pinning down a Saint-level Vulture Cicada Alfalfa, beating them until they had almost no power to retaliate, Chen Xin's mouth twitched wildly.
"It's completely upside down!"
Battles against higher-level opponents were common, but this kind of leapfrogging was truly rare.
Even more terrifying was that almost all of Mingxi's pet beasts possessed this formidable ability to fight above their rank.
Boom—!
A violent tremor resonated.
