Chapter 1280: Chapter 362: Slaying Foes and Unexpected Encounters (Double-Length, Extra for Alliance Hierarch Release That Sky Lantern 3/2)
The powerful yak emitted a low and heavy sound, about to take action, but the next moment, a look of terror quickly appeared on its face.
At the same time as the claw from the sky descended, another claw shadow suddenly emerged from the shadows beneath its most vulnerable abdomen.
Compared to the mighty claw above the sky, the claw shadow appearing now did not carry such grandeur, but its chilling murderous intent was in no way inferior.
Shadow Trick Technique, Shadow Claw Attack!
Surrounded by threats, the powerful yak let out a wail and finally met its end.
"Not bad, using these two skills simultaneously is more concealed and can catch the opponent off guard." Lin Su nodded with satisfaction, the energy fluctuations around him slowly dissipating, "That’s enough for today. Let’s find a spot near a water source in the valley to rest."
"It’s perfect, we can roast this yak to eat."
"Yes! (｡˃‿˂｡)" (Great!)
Yingying quickly nodded, already imagining the sizzling, oil-dripping roast beef in its mind as it looked at the yak lying on the ground.
Lin Su quickly stepped forward, carving out the useful parts of the yak and storing them away, then chatting idly with Yingying as they made their way into the valley.
After only a few steps, he abruptly stopped.
A figure slowly emerged not far ahead.
The person’s dark clothes were stained with dried blood, and a strong smell of blood emanated around him.
Seeing Lin Su and Yingying, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, but it was quickly replaced by a sneer, "Heh... it seems we are destined to meet."
After killing many beasts, the youth’s irritation had somewhat subsided, but upon seeing Lin Su, he still couldn’t hide the murderous intent in his heart.
If they were in the city, he might have held back a bit, but they were now out in the wild.
These days, how normal is it for a person to die?
Lin Su initially held a similar attitude, but upon sensing the opponent’s current energy fluctuations, his expression quickly tensed.
Just a few days ago, this guy was only at the peak of the Open Vein stage, yet now he had broken through to the Nayuan Realm.
This was quite troublesome now.
A martial arts expert at the first level of the Nayuan Realm had an equivalent level of energy value ranging from fifty thousand to a hundred thousand.
As for Yingying...
Under normal circumstances, the energy value of an elite-tier, emperor species was between ten thousand to twenty thousand.
Yingying naturally didn’t fall within the normal range. During its Trickster Clown phase, it had already raised its energy value to ten thousand, far surpassing the five thousand limit of an elite-tier, leader species.
Now, with its species level rising two tiers, its energy value had surged, reaching the extreme state of forty thousand.
Achieving this was thanks to Lin Su’s hard work in earning resources for initial accumulation.
But even so, there was still a gap compared to the opponent.
This was a battle between different realms.
The Nayuan Realm corresponded to the leader tier.
If he didn’t use the Power Transfer Method, he and Yingying wouldn’t be able to match the opponent.
Lin Su made his judgment.
"My friend, it’s better to resolve enmity than to keep it." He quickly plastered a smile on his face, "This spot was fair game, first come first serve; we don’t have to go this far. If you insist, I can compensate you with some items, how about that?"
Indeed, he decided to concede.
"Now you know fear." A mocking look flashed in the youth’s eyes, the anger within him not diminishing in the slightest, instead growing stronger.
If this guy was so perceptive, why didn’t he yield the slot to me earlier?
Thinking of this, the murderous intent in his eyes grew stronger.
Compensation?
If I kill you, everything is mine!
"Remember, the one who kills you is called Li Shengyun!" The youth shouted fiercely, and in the next moment, surging energy billowed around him like a dark cloud pressing down, rushing towards Lin Su.
Murderous intent also flickered in Lin Su’s eyes.
It seemed the opponent was bent on taking his life over a slot.
If that was the case, then there was no need for further words.
Accompanied by a soaring momentum, an aura of shadow-based supernatural power manifested around Lin Su, and together with Yingying, they stepped up to fight back.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion echoed in the valley, two claw shadows tore apart the black cloud in the void, and the immense energy waves turned into a raging storm sweeping in all directions!
"Hmm?"
Li Shengyun’s pupils suddenly contracted at this moment, staring intently at Lin Su.
How could a Beast Tamer wield such formidable power?!
It wasn’t his first time dealing with Beast Tamers, and he was naturally familiar with those cowards who could only cower behind their pet beasts.
In his impression, Beast Tamers shouldn’t possess such power.
But the power the Beast Tamer was using now seemed somewhat similar to that of the pet beast beside him, only slightly weaker.
Could it be... some sort of Secret Technique?
A greedy look appeared in Li Shengyun’s eyes.
Unexpectedly, there was an extra gain after all.
He himself wasn’t a Beast Tamer, so he might not be able to use the opponent’s Secret Technique.
But he believed Beast Tamers would certainly be interested in this Secret Technique.
If he could get his hands on it and sell it to those Beast Tamers, he could make some profit to compensate for his losses.
With that thought, his eyes burned with even greater murderous intent.
And the same murderous intent appeared in Lin Su’s eyes.
Without using the Power Transfer Method, he and Yingying wouldn’t be able to handle the opponent.
And having used the Power Transfer Method, he absolutely couldn’t let the opponent leave here alive.
Otherwise, the consequences would be endless!
"Die!"
Joined in spirit, Lin Su and Yingying instantly transformed into two pitch-black shadows, charging towards Li Shengyun!
