Defeating Monsters to Get Equipment (Begging for Comments and Ratings)

Xiang Tian looked closely and saw a spirit beast resembling a white flood dragon, but it had small dragon horns and paws like a tiger, looking like a white qilin, yet it was different.

Its entire body was luminous white; he could even see its internal organs. Xiang Tian had never encountered such a situation before and was a bit bewildered.

"Awooo!"

The spirit beast let out a roar and leaped ashore, opening its maw. Even the inside of its mouth was white. While not as bloody and exaggerated as a giant red mouth, it still evoked a strange, alluring, unknown fear.

Xiang Tian drew his Immortal Sword. He didn't understand what kind of spirit beast this was, but his intuition told him it was very strong!

He took a step forward, and fierce light flashed in the spirit beast's eyes.

Suddenly, it swooped down, lunging to tear at Xiang Tian.

Xiang Tian dodged with a leap and struck its head with his sword.

With a clang, the creature didn't suffer even the slightest harm. It shook its head vigorously and hopped a few times, appearing extremely angry.

Xiang Tian was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected this creature, which looked so delicate and fragile, to have such a tough body.

"Roar!"

The spirit beast spat golden light directly at Xiang Tian. Wherever it passed, trees and plants turned into scorched earth.

Xiang Tian quickly cast a spell, and a wall of light appeared before him.

"Boom!"

The explosion was deafening. Xiang Tian felt as if he couldn't stand steady, and his entire body was sent flying by the powerful impact.

"My heavens, what kind of monster is this!"

Xiang Tian was at a loss for what to do. This thing was far more powerful than the Yin Spirits in Yin Si Hall.

"Wuhu!"

Xiang Tian: "?"

How sophisticated, this spirit beast can even whistle!

But then, Xiang Tian saw the mocking look in the spirit beast's eyes, as if it were saying, Is that all? Little buddy, you're not good enough.

He couldn't stand it; he absolutely couldn't stand it!

Xiang Tian decided to go all out. Today, either it kills me, or I kill it!

He drew his sword with one hand, and instantly the Indestructible Black Flame adhered to the sword's body.

Who cares who you are, try taking another sword strike from me!

Xiang Tian swooped down and slashed again. The spirit beast, which had been somewhat smug moments before, opened its mouth to take the blow head-on. With a crisp clang, its bone-white fangs clamped down on Xiang Tian's Immortal Sword.

The man and the beast were locked in a stalemate.

Xiang Tian smiled; this was exactly the effect he wanted.

With a thought, the Indestructible Black Flame surged, engulfing Xiang Tian and the spirit beast.

Scorching heatwaves swept the surroundings, and the ground turned black, cracking from the extreme temperature.

"Awooo!"

Hearing the pained howl, Xiang Tian knew he had succeeded and quickly retreated.

The spirit beast leaped and jumped in place, wailing continuously. But no matter what it did, even rolling on the ground, it couldn't extinguish the Black Flame on its body.

With no other option, the spirit beast plunged its head into the lake.

The lake's surface rippled with Black Flame, which still wouldn't go out.

Bubbles rose from the lake. Xiang Tian stood on the shore, thinking, No matter what you are, if your skill isn't enough, you can't extinguish this Indestructible Black Flame.

The lake's surface churned, and after a long while, it calmed down. Simultaneously, a beam of light appeared, and a Jade Flute, wrapped in spiritual energy, rose from the lake.

Xiang Tian was stunned and immediately flew over to take the Jade Flute in his hand.

Accompanying it, a piece of information flooded his mind.

Calming Heart and Illuminating Melody!

It was a musical score!

As for the flute, one look told him it was no ordinary item, and this melody was an even greater treasure!

Xiang Tian was incredibly shocked. To think there would be such a good item within the Dao Sea secret realm!

The Calming Heart and Illuminating Melody could pacify one's mood and aid in cultivation. While it wasn't effective for offense, it was beneficial for repairing damage to the soul and spirit. Playing it during a cultivation breakthrough would also be of great help.

Amazing! This is truly amazing! You can even get equipment drops from monsters; this is a truly conscientious secret realm!

Xiang Tian was overjoyed. He put away the flute and, without a second word, shot into the sky, searching everywhere for traces of spirit beasts.

"Good, there's a wild boar ahead, chopped it, and got nothing."

"Another long worm, cleaved it, still nothing."

Xiang Tian began to wonder, Could it be that only the powerful spirit beasts in here have treasures?

Beside the corpse of a giant python, Xiang Tian fell into contemplation.

"Quick, run!"

Just then, Xiang Tian heard someone exclaim not far away and quickly turned his head to look.

Several people were running for their lives, and behind them, a fiery red lion, covered in flames, was chasing them.

Looking at the lion's appearance, it seemed much stronger than these wild boars and pythons. Would it drop any treasures?

Without a word, Xiang Tian charged forward with his sword.

Those few people only saw a black light flash before their eyes, too fast to discern. Then, a whimpering sound came from behind them. They turned to look and saw that the fiery lion that had been chasing them had its head severed. Blood gushed violently from its neck, while Xiang Tian stood with his back to them.

Looking at his back, the few people were overcome with gratitude. Who was this fellow Daoist? He was so cool! Standing there, he looked exactly like an otherworldly master, a hidden prodigy.

Xiang Tian didn't know they were thinking so much. He just stood there, waiting for the lion to transform into spiritual light and drop some treasure.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement. Xiang Tian felt unlucky and kicked the fiery lion's corpse away.

Watching this kick, the few people felt incredibly satisfied. They had been chased miserably by that thing before, and now it had died before their eyes. It was truly gratifying!

Xiang Tian turned around, and the few people were stunned. It was obvious they recognized Xiang Tian.

Xiang Tian's expression was not good, and the few people were terrified. Xiang Tian knew that rumors about him in the outside world were terrifying, painting him as utterly wicked.

But he still thought too highly of himself. The outside world rumored that Xiang Tian was moody and would casually wipe out entire families if he was displeased.

Seeing that it was Xiang Tian, and with such a grim expression, the few people trembled all over with fear.

Seeing them like this, Xiang Tian's face darkened further.

And these few people became even more frightened, wishing they could call out for their grandfathers and grandmothers to save them.

Taking a deep breath, Xiang Tian forced out a smile. "Are any of you injured?"

"N-no."

One person stammered in reply.

"It's good that you're alright."

With that, Xiang Tian turned to leave.

"Wait."

Hearing someone speak from behind, Xiang Tian turned his head in confusion. "Is something wrong?"

One person looked at Xiang Tian. "Just now, I saw students from your academy fighting a giant scorpion. The commotion was huge, it was in that direction."

After speaking, he pointed in a direction.

Xiang Tian thanked him and then set off. This place was too strange, and he had to do his best to protect the safety of the other four. If even one of them were to fall, he would be too ashamed to face the Dean and the students of the academy.

Watching Xiang Tian's figure disappear into the sky, the few people all breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to themselves that this Xiang Tian seemed different from the rumors. After all, he had saved their lives, and they couldn't help but feel a little grateful.
