Chapter 36

Roar!

The Water Ape roared and spat out a blue water pillar.

Once this water pillar struck a human, ordinary Tier 3 Mages would definitely die.

Su Xing’s eyes flickered as his figure dodged extremely agilely.

However, he was still sent flying by the huge shock wave. His robe was tattered, his chest rose and fell violently, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Whoosh!

The Water Ape roared as if it was very angry and pounced over.

“This is the first time I’ve encountered such a powerful aura. It seems that this water monkey’s strength is not bad!”

Su Xing’s expression was gloomy. He took a step forward and his right hand turned into a circle. The Fire Ring Technique surged out.

It smashed into the Water Ape’s neck.

Due to the fact that Su Xing had already cultivated to the Proficient level, this strike was extremely fast. It contained a domineering force that was like lightning and destroyed everything.

Boom!

Wherever the Water Ape appeared, it instantly caused a thousand shock waves!

“Be careful!”

A figure suddenly appeared in the distance with an extremely gorgeous wand in its hand. Magical energy continuously surged!

Seeing that this wand was extremely precious, Su Xing’s heart immediately skipped a beat.

“Angel Halo, break!”

As it spat out the voice, magical energy surged out. In the end, it condensed into two white-gold halos that floated in the air and emitted an intense holy aura.

Bang!

The magical shield exploded, but it blocked Su Xing’s attack.

Buzz!

The circle of light fell again and enveloped the Water Ape, immediately imprisoning it on the spot.

“Roar~”

The Water Ape screamed. Its body was imprisoned and it was difficult to move.

However, it was not afraid. Instead, it struggled wildly.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Seeing this, Su Xing hurriedly shot out a few fireballs to attack the other party.

However, it was blocked by the halo.

“Your attack has been blocked!”

Immediately after, golden Holy Light shot over.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Su Xing felt as if his chest had been hammered. His throat felt sweet and he spat out a few more mouthfuls of blood.

He was sent flying and fell on a rock.

“How terrifying! I actually can’t endure a single strike!” Su Xing’s eyes narrowed.

A dense sense of danger arose in his heart. The magical beast opposite him was not simple.

“Are you alright?”

A girl in a white dress fluttered over.

She had delicate eyebrows, jade-like skin, and exquisite facial features. Her long black hair was tied into a beautiful princess bun, and her black hair fell to her waist like a waterfall pouring down like a beautiful work of art.

She had a perfect and delicate face, and her every action revealed nobility and elegance as if a fairy from the Nine Heavens had descended to the mortal world.

“It’s you, Su Xing!” Liu Feixue was a little surprised and looked at the equally surprised man in front of her.

“What… what a coincidence!” Su Xing smiled. As his smile twitched, the muscles in his chest hurt as if they were tearing.

“Are you alright? I’ll treat you.”

“It’s too late. That fellow is very fast, but after the battle just now, I discovered its flaw. It can’t divert its attention to fight.”

“In other words, if the two of us attack at the same time, that guy might not be able to dodge my full-strength strike before reacting!”

“Therefore, attack first. When it reflects, change your attack to defense.” Su Xing quickly said.

“Then I’m relieved.” Hearing Su Xing’s words, Liu Feixue heaved a sigh of relief.

She was a Tier 2 Mage, and it was impossible for her to kill a late-stage Tier 3 Water Ape alone.

“Then let me try!”

“Wind Blade Slash!”

Liu Feixue shouted and used her magic.

In an instant, a whirlwind swept up in the surroundings, and a dozen-feet-long green blade condensed. It carried a sharp wind as it slashed at the Water Ape.

Ding!

The sound of metal colliding sounded in all directions.

The Water Ape’s entire body emitted a dazzling light. It was tough and unyielding as it endured the wind blade.

Swoosh!

However, at this moment, Su Xing grabbed the opportunity and waved his wand to release the Fire Dragon Technique.

As an attack spell, the damage that the Fire Dragon Technique could cause was several times higher than the Fire Ring Technique.

Therefore, he simply used the Fire Dragon Technique to attack.

Other than continuously activating the Fire Ring Technique, Su Xing also used half of his magical energy to increase the attack of the Fire Dragon Technique.

Raging flames swept over and instantly swallowed the Water Ape’s body, burning its fur black and wailing miserably.

“Die!”

Su Xing sneered and swept his wand, directly piercing one of the Water Ape’s arms!

Bang!

The Water Ape’s huge body collapsed.

Swoosh!

Su Xing dug out a magic core from the corpse.

This magic core was crystal clear and emitted a faint red halo. Many strange runes could be vaguely seen flowing inside.

“This is a Tier 3 magic core!”

Liu Feixue took a look and determined.

A Tier 3 magic core was very valuable. It was one of the materials needed to make a Tier 3 Magic Weapon.

It was also an extremely rare magic core.

Moreover, the price of each Tier 3 magic core was about 100,000 Huaxia coins.

“Although it’s very valuable, a Tier 3 magic core will only appear on Tier 3 magical beast!” Liu Feixue said in surprise, “I didn’t expect you to actually kill a Tier 3 magical beast. It seems that it’s really not simple.”

“I was just lucky!” Su Xing shook his head and sighed in his mind. He was indeed a little lucky. Although the Water Ape was imprisoned, its reaction was too fast, causing him to only use all his magical energy to inject into the Fire Dragon Technique to attack.

Fortunately, the Fire Dragon Technique was powerful. Otherwise, if their attack failed, they would have already lost the chance to counterattack.

Otherwise, Su Xing could not hurt it at all.

“Right, why are you here?” Su Xing asked.

“I accepted a mission and came here to collect a herb according to the guidance.” Liu Feixue explained, “I didn’t expect my luck to be bad and I encountered a Water Ape.”

“Is that so?!”

Su Xing nodded in understanding.

“You should leave quickly!” Liu Feixue suddenly suggested, “I keep feeling that there are many dangerous magical beasts nearby!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xing immediately revealed a strange expression and looked into the distance warily.

“Eh! There’s a soul fluctuation ahead!”

“Could there be a magical beast?”

Su Xing’s eyes lit up and he hurriedly quickened his pace. As expected, he saw a valley with a group of magical beasts fighting. The most eye-catching thing was a huge python.

The python was seven to eight meters long and completely black. Its scales flickered with a cold light, and the end of its tail was like a steel whip that whipped ruthlessly.

Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!

The sound of air exploding could be heard.

“What a powerful life force.”

“As expected of a peak Tier 3 magical beast. This life force is probably not something ordinary people can compare to.”

Su Xing’s pupils narrowed slightly.

He did not dare to easily provoke a magical beast of this level. After all, he still had a mission to do.

Before finding the mission target, he had to conserve his strength as much as possible.

This made him not dare to be careless. Just as he wanted to quietly retreat with Liu Feixue, to his surprise, he discovered that the surrounding aura instantly became serious.
