Chapter 288 – Keep talking nonsense and I’ll kill you

Lin Jichen's strike was so powerful that the Chibi Bird was in unbearable pain. It had never suffered such a severe injury before.

As it fell from the sky, it managed to muster its strength and flapped its wings to return to the high altitude.

Seeing Lin Jichen still relentlessly pursuing it, the Chibi Bird was filled with hatred.

Ignoring its injuries, it decided it had to take Lin Jichen down!

The Chibi Bird let out a long cry towards the sky, and its feathers began to shed automatically, more and more falling off.

Hundreds of feathers detached and started swirling around it.

Each feather seemed to contain terrifying wind attribute spiritual power.

The sky suddenly changed.

The white clouds that had filled the sky were blown away in an instant.

Above Lin Jichen's head, not a single cloud could be seen.

Instead, all the clouds were blown apart and then gathered together, forming the eye of a storm!

Everything within the eye of the storm seemed peaceful, but in reality, it was filled with hidden dangers.

It was like the calm before the storm.

A massive hurricane was about to hit the entire valley!

Lin Jichen took a deep breath. If this damn wild bird released its skill, he would be dead for sure with his current health!

And all the players nearby would also be doomed.

The only way to break the situation was to kill it before it could finish charging up!

Without a moment's hesitation, Lin Jichen flew forward under immense pressure.

One sword strike! The sky dimmed!

A flash of Sword Qi burst from Lin Jichen's blade, hitting the Chibi Bird, which was fighting for its life.

The storm had already begun to form!

The wind howled!

The great river in the valley was whipped into waves tens of meters high!

The surrounding water was sucked into the sky by the fierce wind, forming a tornado that blocked out the sun.

This terrifying phenomenon, like a scene from an apocalyptic disaster, made the dozens of players and disciples' legs go weak and their hearts tremble.

Splat!

Lin Jichen's sword strike hit the Chibi Bird precisely.

[-3450!]

Lin Jichen's mana was completely exhausted, and he couldn't even fly, falling straight from the sky.

The Chibi Bird seemed to have about two thousand health left, and it looked like it was all over.

But as Lin Jichen fell, he smiled.

Suddenly, the Chibi Bird's entire body froze, and all its charging stopped abruptly.

Then it too fell from the sky.

[Death Execution! 5% health trigger! -2050! Execution!]

Lin Jichen had won!

But he was still in danger. If he fell from such a height, with his remaining health, he would surely die.

At that moment, Lin Jichen suddenly summoned Panda Xiong and flipped onto its back.

"Thanks, my dear, cushion me."

Thud!

As soon as he finished speaking, Panda Xiong, looking bewildered, crashed into the ground, creating a huge pit, its entire body buried in the dirt.

[-18888!]

A long string of health bars appeared above Panda Xiong's head, making it dizzy and bleeding.

Because Lin Jichen was lying on its back, he only lost less than two thousand health, successfully escaping death.

Phew! A narrow victory!

Lin Jichen got up from Panda Xiong and immediately took some medicine to recover.

With the Chibi Bird's death, the terrifying water dragon in the sky collapsed.

A large amount of water vapor condensed into raindrops, pouring down like soybeans, along with many fish and shrimp from the river.

Panda Xiong, still confused, found fish falling on its head.

Ignoring the confusion, it was attracted by the food and happily started eating.

Lin Jichen glanced at it guiltily, thinking it was a good thing this silly bear was distracted by the food. Otherwise, if it found out, who knows if its loyalty would drop again, cough cough.

But he had no choice. If he hadn't called Panda Xiong to take the fall, he wouldn't have made it.

Panda Xiong was thick-skinned and tough; losing some health was no big deal as long as it didn't die.

As the battle ended, Su Wanling quickly came over to check Lin Jichen's injuries. Seeing he was fine, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Go guard the Soul Burial Mound for me. I don't want anyone stealing it," Lin Jichen urged.

Su Wanling was startled, almost forgetting about it, and quickly led people to where the Chibi Bird had fallen.

As soon as she arrived, she saw a few male players sneaking around, trying to steal the Soul Burial Mound.

The Soul Burial Mound of a Golden Elixir stage exotic beast was too tempting for anyone to resist.

"Who dares to touch it! Our Moon Shadow Guild will kill you back to the novice village!" Su Wanling arrived just in time, holding her sword and shouting, blocking the Soul Burial Mound and not letting anyone get close.

With Su Wanling guarding, Lin Jichen felt at ease, not worried that she would betray him.

He confidently continued to heal, grateful that he had broken through to the Crystal Realm.

This Chibi Bird was even harder to deal with than the Thunder Dragon in the Thunder Marsh because it was so fast, making the fight extremely difficult for Lin Jichen.

He had underestimated the strength of the exotic beast.

A Golden Elixir stage exotic beast was not something a human could easily handle.

Of course, the rewards were also very rich.

Challenging a higher level, and a BOSS-level exotic beast at that, had greatly increased his cultivation.

The ten thousand cultivation experience points needed for the later stage of Crystal Formation had been half-filled in one go.

It would have taken killing at least a thousand Crystal Realm beasts to achieve that.

This was why Lin Jichen chose to take on the Chibi Bird. High risk meant high reward.

After resting for a while, Lin Jichen recovered a bit and brought the still-dizzy Panda Xiong, who was busy eating the fish and shrimp, to Su Wanling.

Su Wanling and the Moon Shadow Guild members were still guarding the Soul Burial Mound without moving an inch.

The surrounding players were eager but didn't dare to offend the Moon Shadow Guild.

When they saw Lin Jichen coming, they gave up any thoughts of trying.

"You're finally here. If you didn't come soon, I wouldn't be able to hold them off," Su Wanling said with a smile.

Lin Jichen smiled slightly, teasing, "Wife is the best, always on my side."

"Get lost! Call me that again, and I'll cut you!" Su Wanling angrily waved her sword at Lin Jichen.

Lin Jichen laughed heartily, suddenly finding Su Wanling quite adorable.

"Hurry up and take the Soul Burial Mound, or I won't be able to resist taking it myself!" Su Wanling rolled her eyes at Lin Jichen, urging him.

With a Golden Elixir BOSS exotic beast's Soul Burial Mound right there, this guy still had time to joke around. He was really carefree!

Lin Jichen didn't dawdle any longer. He went over, cleaned out the Soul Burial Mound, and packed up the Chibi Bird's body.

Then he began to leisurely check the spoils from the Golden Elixir stage exotic beast.

Wow, this Chibi Bird was even more generous than the Thunder Dragon!
