"Roar!"
The tiger roared in the forest, and the sword shone in the sky.
Give me a Heavenly Weapon, and this trip will not be in vain!
The moment the boss appeared, I muttered to myself. Ling Er furrowed her brows and asked with a smile, "Big bro, what... what do you mean?"
"I'm talking about a young man's dream of rising to the heavens and shocking the world, Ling Er..."
"Oh..."
Ling Er nodded, not really understanding. She raised her Illusionary Spirit Sword and said, "A powerful creature has appeared!"
I spurred my horse into the dense forest and swung my Burning Soul Sword, cutting through the thistles and thorns along the way. Fallen leaves fluttered in the air, and a white light appeared in the distance. Impressively, I could see the boss appearing in the clearing in the forest — — It was a white tiger with a body that glowed with silver light. It was a bit more muscular than the normal white tigers here. It looked majestic and insufferably arrogant.
"Big bro, should we kill it?" Ling Er asked.
"Yes, let's kill it first!"
Ling Er had already charged over. This White Tiger boss was obviously a physical attack type. Ling Er could deal with it herself. I directly used Eye of the Stars — —
[Soul of the White Tiger] (Heaven Rank Boss)
Level: 190
Attack: 12450 - 17800
Defense: 12000
Health: 8000000
Skills: [Laceration], [Fierce Wind], [Crush]
Passive: 50% immunity to physical attacks
Introduction: A being formed from the White Tiger's soul. It has been infected by the undead and has become violent. The Soul of the White Tiger has become the new guardian of the Pegasus Mountain Stream...
I couldn't help but laugh. Previously, I had subdued the Snow Feather Pegasus as Ling Xue's mount. This time, a Heaven Rank boss had spawned. The difference was too big, wasn't it?
Forget it, this White Tiger Boss had the words "Tameable" above its head. Today, he would just have to deal with it and give it to Iced Tea to replace her normal White Tiger. As a core member of Xue Yue, she had to be different from the rest.
I rode forward and raised my sword. [Dragon Bind]!
Without a doubt, the Dragon Bind had successfully bound the White Tiger. No matter how hard Ren Yi struggled, it was useless.
The white tiger's roar shook the mountain forest, scaring all the small animals away in panic. This new king is too tragic. He actually met me, who has been waiting here for three days!
Ling Er threw a Tame Skill at the White Tiger, but it was ineffective. The White Tiger abruptly used a Tempest Skill, dealing close to 10,000 damage to Ling Er's HP. Ling Er similarly did not show any signs of weakness, immediately retaliating with a Tempest Flurry. Meteor Storm was a skill that could only be used when killing a large group of monsters. Against a single target, its destructive power was not even comparable to a skill like Flash Shadow.
The White Tiger was provoked by my [Taming Skill] and was enraged. It suddenly rushed over and raised its claws to slap at me. With a loud bang, my entire body trembled and I lost more than 7000 HP. Luckily, it was still within an acceptable range and I had my Holy Heal ready.
I activated a Domain Shield, but the White Tiger only managed to tear it apart after half a minute. I couldn't help but rejoice inside my heart. This Holy Ghost skill was already very powerful, and as long as I didn't run into a super overpowered boss like the thunder dragon, my Domain Shield should be able to hold out for a while!
I continued to tame it!
Thud!
Hiss!
Clang!
All kinds of sounds rang out. The White Tiger hated me to the core, and it threw all kinds of skills at me. However, it was helpless against my three powerful skills — Dragon Armor, Domain Shield, and Holy Heal!
These three skills alone allowed me to stand tall in front of a Level 190 Heaven Rank boss without falling. In fact, I didn't even need to drink a health potion.
Ten minutes later!
Ding ~!
System Notice: Taming Skill has failed. The White Tiger Soul has been enraged and officially leveled up to Ghost Rank boss!
… …
"Not bad, it leveled up!" I almost rubbed the tiger's head and smiled.
The White Tiger was even more humiliated. A Heaven Rank boss had just spawned and ruled over this territory. It was probably very unwilling to be tamed just like that.
Unfortunately, reality was cruel. It had nowhere to go!
The Ghost Rank White Tiger boss's DPS had clearly increased by a lot. I had no choice but to drink potions and rely on Ling Er's protection. Otherwise, my HP would continue to drop like crazy.
Half an hour later, I suddenly received a system notice: Your friend "Zi Yun 'er" has come online!
Qin Yun immediately sent me a message: "Scholar, did you have fun today?"
Ding ~!
System Notice: Taming successful. You have obtained the Ghost Rank boss mount [White Tiger Soul]!
… …
I laughed and immediately replied, "I'm very happy!
Qin Yun, you really are my lucky star … "
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Let's do a quest together tonight, okay?"
"Mn, then I'm going offline. Contact me at night."
"Then why are you online?"
"To look at you …"
"..."
As expected, Qin Yun logged off. I checked the results of my trip. The White Tiger boss was obediently lying at my feet. After being tamed, it had turned from an unruly tiger into a loyal watchdog.
I checked its stats. It was much stronger than a normal White Tiger —
[White Tiger Soul] (Ghost Rank Boss Mount)
Strength: + 850
Stamina: + 825
Agility: + 800
Attack Speed: + 80%
Attack Range: 12 yards
Movement Speed: + 240%
Max HP: + 14000
Defense: + 4200
Turn Rate: -40%
Level Requirement: 150
Strength Requirement: 3000
Reputation Requirement: 400000
… …
Not bad. This was enough to raise Bing Cha's strength to a whole new level!
I checked my friend's information. Bing Cha had reached Level 150, but she was still working hard. She was obediently earning some experience while she was still a normal swordsman.
I didn't want to disturb her leveling. I could give it to her when I was doing a quest at night.
And so I continued to grind levels and kill the White Tigers and Fire Wolves in the forest. I didn't let a single one go. I tamed those I could, and killed those I couldn't!
Finally, I reached Level 164 37% in the evening. Today's grinding efficiency was obvious. Now, it was time to do a quest for Bing Cha!
When I logged out of the game, the food I ordered had arrived at the workshop's living room. Everyone was eating quickly, and the melody of Snow Moon was no longer there. Even the conversation had become quieter.
"Scholar, did you see Ling Xue and Ling Yue today?" Bing Cha asked while holding a bowl.
"Yes, I did. You can use the Lightning Trial when you log in. I've already made an appointment with Ling Xue, Ling Yue, and Qin Yun. We'll help you complete this quest!"
Iced Tea pursed her lips and smiled. "Alright, thank you in advance!"
"You're welcome."
… …
When I logged into the game after eating, Ling Xue and Ling Yue were already online. We'd arranged to meet in the guild encampment's living room.
When I entered the living room, Ling Xue was saying with a smile, "Sis, the American girl who delivered the pizza today, the one who looks good..."
"What?"
"Strong..."
"Yeah!"
I interrupted. "Western women are all very strong."
Ling Xue saw me and turned around with a smile. "You're quite punctual today!"
"Mn." I looked at the time and said, "Our Zi Yun 'er should be here soon."
As I said this, Qin Yun appeared in the living room. She was a Level 145 Holy Priest. Her level had fallen behind quite a bit.
"Everyone's here?" Qin Yun felt the atmosphere wasn't right and smiled.
Ling Xue said with a smile, "Sister Qin Yun, you're finally here. We missed you so much..."
Qin Yun couldn't help but smile. "Me too..."
"Oh right, what quest? Where's the person involved?"
"Oh, the person involved went to wash the dishes. He'll be here soon..." I said.
Qin Yun was slightly surprised. "Isn't it always summer to wash the dishes?"
"Yes, but summer is coming, so you can't touch cold water."
"I see..."
A few minutes later, Iced Tea arrived. She had already changed into an Ancient Equipment Set, which shone faintly. She looked very heroic. Holding the Level 140 Pseudo-Immortal Equipment Fire Dragon Sword, she smiled modestly and politely said, "Heroes, are you all here?"
Qin Yun nodded and smiled. "Yes, Bing Cha, where's your quest?
Share it with us and start immediately. I'm going to level up as soon as I finish the quest! "
Bing Cha didn't answer the question. He grabbed Qin Yun's hand and said with a strange look in his eyes, "Sister Qin Yun, come back... I miss you. Scholar too. He can only eat one bowl of rice every meal. It must be a disaster..."
Qin Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Er... Bing Cha, I miss you too..."
Ling Xue opened her mouth and said to Ling Yue, "Sister, look, this is a real lily..."
"..."
So, Ling Xue and Ling Yue walked to Qin Yun and smiled. "Sister Qin Yun, let's go back to the studio!
Everyone misses you, and no one will take care of Scholar when you're not around. He's so muddle-headed, how will he do if he's alone? "
Qin Yun said, "Don't we have the two of you?"
"The two of us?"
Ling Xue and Ling Yue looked at each other and smiled. "We're still in America. It'll be a long time before we can go back to Suzhou..."
"Oh?" Qin Yun was slightly surprised.
"Anyway, hurry back to the studio!" Ling Yue put on the attitude of a boss and smiled. "Otherwise, we won't be able to enjoy our meals!"
"Then... alright!" Qin Yun smiled. "I'll go back soon."
"Let's do the mission first!"
Iced Tea shared her quest as a Thunder Swordsman. Surprisingly, she had to go deep into the Moonlight Forest's Cold Wind Cave to kill a high-leveled Boss.
"Cold Wind Cave?"
Ling Xue said, "I've been there before. The cave was full of elite monsters whose levels I couldn't see. I was so scared that I didn't dare to go in...
But the mission difficulty is only 2800 now. It should be done!
Wait a little longer, Chrysanthemum Daohana is coming! "
"Okay!"
Not long after, Chrysanthemum Daohana teleported back from the leveling area. She smiled and said, "Sorry to keep you waiting!"
Ling Yue quickly gave her Demon Tier Ring to Chrysanthemum Daohana. At first, Chrysanthemum Daohana was unwilling to accept it. Ling Yue had to persuade her to accept it. A pure girl like Chrysanthemum Daohana was almost extinct. When I gave the White Tiger Boss Bing Cha, she didn't hold back. She just looked at me meaningfully. At this time, silence was better than words...
I also gave a Holy Ring to Qin Yun. Qin Yun didn't hold back and thanked me with a smile.
Then, they formed a team of six and prepared to leave the territory in a grandiose manner.
Ling Xue used the Snow Feather Pegasus to carry Ling Yue, Bing Cha used the White Tiger to carry Qin Yun, and I carried Chrysanthemum Daohana. This way, the entire party's movement speed was guaranteed, and it didn't take long for us to enter Moonlight Forest.
When we passed through a couple of open spaces, we saw a few hundred-man parties fighting elite mobs in an organized manner. Their levels weren't low, and almost all of them were third-promotion players. Moreover, every one of them had a blood-red emblem on their shoulder. They were the main guild members of Soul Battle Robes!
I frowned and said in the party channel, "Pay attention, we seem to have entered Soul Battle Robes' leveling map. Try not to let anyone know. We're only here to help Bing Cha complete his class advancement, so there's no need to cause unnecessary trouble!"
"Got it!"
Ling Xue looked at the Soul Battle Robes players in the distance. They were also staring at us with complicated expressions. It looked like they wanted to attack us, but they were also hesitant.
"What should we do if they attack us first?" Ling Xue asked.
"Of course we'll fight back!"
I thought for a moment before saying, "Right now, Ling Xue has a full set of pseudo-Immortal-grade equipment, and Ling Yue has a new scepter, so we don't need to be afraid of them. As long as Soul Battle Robes starts a fight, hmph hmph, Snow Moon will fight back!"
"Mn, good!
We understand! "
Our party quickly passed through the forest and disappeared from the sight of the Soul Battle Robes players. I let out a sigh of relief, but I soon heard the sounds of fighting coming from the forest. After turning a corner, I saw a group of people fighting an ogre boss. It was a Level 180 Heaven Rank boss, and it was a 10-man party. It was a relatively easy fight.
"Fuck!
It's Soul Battle Robes again?! "
It was 10 high-level players, and every one of them was over Level 140. They could be considered top-tier players, and the leader was a Level 142 berserker, Bloodthirsty Jianghu. It was one of the strongest leveling parties in Soul Battle Robes.
The six of us suddenly rushed out of the forest and gave Bloodthirsty Jianghu a fright. He immediately said in a low voice, "Warriors, stall the boss. The rest of you, prepare for battle. It's Snow Moon!
Damn it, it's actually Frivolous Scholar, Cool Breeze, and Flying Snow. Enemies really don't meet … "
I gripped the Burning Soul Sword and spurred my mount past them. I didn't even look at Bloodthirsty Jianghu. I said solemnly, "Let's go. This isn't the place we want to go!"
After that, I passed through the forest with the girls and didn't offend Bloodthirsty Jianghu at all.
I didn't want to make the first move before Soul Battle Robes made their stance clear. After all, a battle would affect Snow Moon greatly and slow down our leveling progress. Dragon Soul, Judging Sky and the others hadn't reached Level 150 yet, so our chances of winning were less than 50% if we fought them. Let's wait for a bit longer. At the very least, we should wait until I put on the Divine Oracle set!
It wasn't long before we finally arrived at the legendary Coldwind Cave. There were eighteen twists and turns on the mountain path and nine loops in the water path. Hmph hmph, even if Soul Battle Robes knew that we had entered this forest, they might not be able to find Coldwind Cave. Hmph hmph, the terrain here is very suitable for guerilla warfare. In that case, we'll just kill one if they come!
In front of him, there was a cave with a gust of wind and a red glow. This was the legendary Frigid Wind Cave. Outside the cave, there were a few large Ogres guarding the cave with clubs in their hands.
Bing Cha pointed and said with a smile, "Everyone, we've arrived!
As long as we fight our way to the deepest part of Coldwind Cave and kill the boss, we can bring its head to the king and ask him to promote me to a Lightning Swordsman! "
"Mn. What are we waiting for? Let's go!"
I put down Chrysanthemum Daohana and summoned Ling 'Er. Prepare for battle!
