The Fisherman Benefits, Black Blood Stone!

This Corrupt Dog King clearly possessed higher intelligence.

It wasn't just strong; it could also think.

It was the one that had initially bitten the Tusk Pig and commanded its subordinate Rotten Dogs to continuously harass the Tusk Pig, forcing this powerful 1st Rank Exotic Beast into a corner.

The attack just now, in particular, had heavily wounded the Tusk Pig.

A large chunk of flesh was torn from its hind leg, and yellowish-green rot quickly spread from the wound. The Tusk Pig's entire hind leg instantly lost its strength, and its massive body staggered and fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of gravel.

The next moment, over sixty Rotten Dogs swarmed forward.

Some gnawed at its limbs, while others lunged for its belly. Although the Tusk Pig struggled frantically, tossing two or three Rotten Dogs aside with its tusks, more and more Rotten Dogs pounced. Black mucus and bright red blood mixed together, staining the ground in a mess.

The Corrupt Dog King stood to the side, its scarlet eyes coldly fixed on the Tusk Pig.

Every time the Tusk Pig tried to get up, it would pounce and bite, completely crushing any hope of escape.

"What a clever dog!" Chu Han sighed.

He watched the brutal fight in the arena, a glint flashing in his eyes.

This was a rare spectacle of two tigers fighting!

The Tusk Pig was a 1st Rank Exotic Beast. Its tusks, thick hide, and beast core were all extremely precious materials. Its meat was also considered top-grade among exotic beast meat, making it very rare.

The Corrupt Dog King was also 1st Rank. Its fangs and core were highly effective in refining "Detoxification Pills," making them even more valuable than the Tusk Pig.

The remaining Rotten Dogs also had valuable materials on them. Chu Han's heart itched.

If he charged in now, with his strength, he might be able to take down both of them simultaneously. However, he would inevitably be surrounded by the pack of Rotten Dogs, and even if he won, he would have to pay a price.

"Why not wait until they've both suffered heavy losses? All the materials here will be mine!"

A smile tugged at the corner of Chu Han's lips. He concealed his figure in the shadows of Black Stone Slope, waiting to reap the benefits.

But soon, he discovered a problem.

Although this pack of Rotten Dogs looked ferocious, their attacks were incapable of killing the Tusk Pig.

The Corrupt Dog King clearly had the ability to kill the Tusk Pig, but it wasn't delivering a fatal blow, as if it were toying with its prey.

"The textbooks didn't mention Rotten Dogs enjoying toying with their prey? What's their objective?"

Soon, the Tusk Pig's resistance grew weaker.

Clearly, it was at the end of its rope.

Just then, the Tusk Pig suddenly raised its head and let out a completely different howl towards the Corrupt Dog King.

This howl was different from its previous roars of anger and pain. Instead, it carried a trembling, almost subservient tone, as if begging.

Following that, the Tusk Pig actually slowly bent its two front legs, its massive body gradually lowering until it knelt on the ground!

Its head drooped slightly, its once sharp tusks resting on the ground. It even softened its breathing, as if surrendering to the Corrupt Dog King.

"It can do that?"

Chu Han was somewhat surprised. This Tusk Pig, in order to survive, had completely abandoned its dignity and begged its enemy for mercy.

The Corrupt Dog King narrowed its scarlet eyes, staring at the kneeling Tusk Pig for a few seconds before suddenly letting out a low growl.

The pack of Rotten Dogs surrounding the Tusk Pig immediately stopped their biting and retreated, leaving the Tusk Pig kneeling alone, covered in blood.

The next second, the Tusk Pig suddenly opened its mouth wide, its neck bulging. A strange "gurgling" sound came from its throat. Chu Han could see a hard object slowly moving upwards beneath the skin of its neck.

Soon, the Tusk Pig spat out a black stone the size of an egg.

The stone was dark black all over, yet it faintly exuded a dark red luster. Its surface was as smooth as jade, and upon closer inspection, one could see what looked like blood threads slowly flowing within.

"Black Blood Stone! It's definitely a Black Blood Stone!"

Chu Han's heart suddenly clenched, and his eyes instantly turned red.

He had seen records of this item in books about rare treasures.

Black Blood Stone was a unique black stone from Black Stone Mountain, formed over a hundred years by absorbing exotic beast blood from the ground. It contained an extremely terrifying amount of essence blood energy, comparable to fifty Blood Qi Pills!

For exotic beasts, consuming a Black Blood Stone offered a chance to break through level limits and even trigger mutations!

For human martial artists, the Black Blood Stone was an excellent physical treasure.

After use, Quasi-Martial Artists or Martial Artists could significantly strengthen their physical bodies and blood qi energy.

The benefits for Quasi-Martial Artists were even greater, as it could quickly solidify their physical foundation, strengthen their meridians and Dantian, allowing them to accommodate more Origin Energy once they became Martial Artists!

For Chu Han, it was a rare treasure!

He had been wondering earlier why the Corrupt Dog King, capable of quickly killing the Tusk Pig, insisted on torturing it instead. It turned out it was waiting for this.

He surmised that this Black Blood Stone was the Tusk Pig's hidden trump card for survival, something it was only willing to spit out when it had no other options, hoping to exchange it for its life.

But the Corrupt Dog King had no intention of letting it go.

"Awooo!"

The Corrupt Dog King suddenly raised its head, revealing its sharp fangs, and then lunged forward like a black shadow, biting down on the Tusk Pig's neck!

"Crack!"

A crisp bone-cracking sound echoed as a large hole was instantly torn open in the Tusk Pig's neck. Hot blood gushed out, splashing all over the Corrupt Dog King.

Its body convulsed violently a few times. Its previously raised forelimbs fell limply, its beastly eyes quickly lost their luster, and it completely stopped moving.

Hmph, a beast is still a beast. They don't know what mercy is, Chu Han scoffed inwardly.

In the arena, after the Corrupt Dog King dealt with its opponent.

Its scarlet eyes instantly erupted with greedy light, staring intently at the Black Blood Stone on the ground.

It sniffed the Black Blood Stone with its nose, then gently licked it with its tongue. A satisfied growl rumbled in its throat, clearly extremely pleased with this "trophy."

After its admiration, it immediately opened its mouth and picked up the Black Blood Stone, clearly intending to swallow it whole.

"Now!"

A cold glint flashed in Chu Han's eyes. He could no longer hold back; he had to get the Black Blood Stone!

Without any hesitation, his body suddenly shot out from Black Stone Slope. He used Spirit Cat Steps to push his speed to the absolute limit.

The surrounding area was still filled with dust kicked up by the Tusk Pig's struggles. Chu Han used the dust as cover, his figure weaving through the gravel and trees like a phantom, moving so fast he left behind afterimages.

In just two and a half seconds, he covered a hundred meters, charging behind the Corrupt Dog King.

The Corrupt Dog King, having just killed the Tusk Pig and obtained the coveted Black Blood Stone, had its guard lowered to the absolute minimum. It wasn't until Chu Han charged right in front of it that the Corrupt Dog King sensed danger.

"Roar?!"

The Corrupt Dog King suddenly raised its head, its scarlet eyes looking at Chu Han. An angry roar rumbled in its throat, its mouth, which held the Black Blood Stone, opened slightly as if it intended to swallow it.

"Die!"

Chu Han gave the Corrupt Dog King no time to react. The fine steel long saber in his hand transformed into a cold glint, slashing fiercely at its neck.

"Seven Forms of the Army Breaker, First Form!"

Chu Han let out a low cry, and the power within his body erupted instantly!

Although the Corrupt Dog King was a Rank 1 Exotic Beast, its defense was far inferior to the Tusk Pig's.

With a "噗嗤!" sound, Chu Han's saber directly severed the Corrupt Dog King's neck!
