Slaughtering an Epic Exotic Human! New Achievement: Mutualism!

In the dense forest.

Lin Zichen didn't dare to linger for a moment, and ran with Shen Qinghan as fast as he could to get away from Su Jiujiu.

Before he had run very far, several notification messages suddenly appeared in the Void deep within his mind.

[You have encountered a Fox Woman from Alien Race who has fallen on hard times. Fox Woman has repeatedly courted you, hoping to embark on a path of reproduction and evolution with you, evolving together into a higher level of being and fulfilling the conditions for a mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship.]

[Achievement: Live under the same roof with a creature of Alien Race for a year, during which time you must benefit each other and evolve together]

[Reward: Gain the Biological Attribute - Mutualism]

[Total duration of cohabitation: 0/366 days]

Lin Zichen glanced at the contents of the notification messages and was quite surprised.

He hasn't triggered any new Achievement quests in a long time.

Unexpectedly, it was triggered under the current circumstances.

"The Biological Attribute rewarded by the system are far stronger than Biological Attribute obtained by opening the atlas."

"The effects of this [mutually beneficial symbiosis] will definitely be good."

"So... should I go back to save that Fox Woman, complete this Achievement quest, and obtain the system-generated Biological Attribute [mutualism]?"

Lin Zichen felt conflicted.

The Biological Attribute produced by the system are extremely strong, which is very tempting to him.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he should risk going back to save Su Jiujiu.

This internal struggle lasted less than two seconds before it ended.

Lin Zichen made a decision to temporarily abandon this new Achievement task.

Achievement can be accomplished at any time, but you only have one life; there's no need to take this risk today.

At the very moment that decision was made.

Lin Zichen's expression shifted as he sensed a powerful aura near the stream where Su Jiujiu was.

As Mental Power focused...

The next second, a man shrouded in black mist appeared in his mind.

He is Exotic Human from the Land of Extinction.

The Biological Rank is extremely high.

Gundam Epic Tier 1.

"Just Tier 1 Epic- level?"

After discerning the man's Biological Rank, Lin Zichen stopped in his tracks, a thought of taking a risk forming in his mind.

His current Biological Rank is Rare Tier 9, only one level lower than a man. With the support of numerous Biological Attribute, he should be able to easily crush a man, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

"Lin Zi, why did you suddenly stop?"

Seeing Lin Zichen stop, Shen Qinghan couldn't help but ask in confusion.

Before Lin Zichen could answer, she continued, "Are we going back to save that Fox Woman?"

"I have that idea."

Lin Zichen answered honestly.

He didn't like to lie to Shen Qinghan; he basically said what he thought.

"Since you have this idea, let's go back and save her."

After finishing her sentence, Shen Qinghan continued, "Although that Fox Woman is a creature from the Origin Land, she doesn't mean us any harm."

"Moreover, she even helped us when we were attacked by the Divine Plant Cult in Shanhai City."

"She's in trouble now, so if we can lend a hand, we definitely should."

Shen Qinghan spoke from the heart and did not pretend to be magnanimous in front of Lin Zichen.

It's true that Su Jiujiu covets Lin Zichen, but Shen Qinghan doesn't think Su Jiujiu can seduce Lin Zichen, and isn't worried at all about the risk of letting a wolf into the house by going back to save Su Jiujiu.

Seeing that Shen Qinghan didn't seem to care, Lin Zichen didn't hesitate and quickly led her to the stream.

On the road.

To ensure everything went perfectly, Lin Zichen decisively sacrificed his Essence Blood, maximizing both his blood and mental strength.

We must fight against that Exotic Human from the Land of Extinction, whose Biological Rank is as high as Epic Tier 1, in our strongest form.

Beside a babbling brook.

Su Jiujiu struggled to her feet, her gaze fixed on the man in front of her, her brows furrowed as she pondered a way to escape.

However, no matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't come up with a good solution.

For a moment, despair filled her heart, making her face turn ashen.

The man, shrouded in black mist, saw the despair on her face and couldn't help but laugh:

"With such a furrowed brow, has he pushed his Severed Tail Escape to the limit?"

"Honestly, you don't look as good when you frown."

"But it doesn't matter. After I refine you into Yin Corpse, I will make sure you always have a smile on your face and remain beautiful forever."

"..."

He always had a smile on his face...

Su Jiujiu didn't think that a corpse with a smile always on its face could be beautiful; she only thought it looked eerie.

"Further words are useless. Come into my Corpse-Raising Banner and become a beautiful Yin Corpse!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a jet-black flag appeared out of thin air in the man's hand, and he flicked it lightly toward Su Jiujiu in front of him.

In an instant, a large amount of dense black mist flew out from the flag, transforming into pitch-black ghosts accompanied by bursts of shrill screams, and spread towards Su Jiujiu with lightning speed.

At this moment, Su Jiujiu's energy and spirit were almost completely exhausted, and she was powerless to get up and dodge.

They could only watch helplessly as a large number of eerie spirits spread over, waiting for their doom.

Just as the evil spirit was about to devour her body--

"Buzz!"

A deafening whistling sound swept through the air.

The moment the sound rang out.

A surge of vital energy, so dense it was almost condensed into droplets of blood, rushed in from afar at a speed imperceptible even to the spirit, instantly scattering the countless vengeful spirits into nothingness.

"Who goes there?!"

The man was terrified and turned sharply to look in the direction from which the energy of qi and blood had shot out, his face filled with horror.

This surge of vital energy could instantly disperse the yin spirits within his Corpse-Raising Banner; it was at least at the Epic level.

Furthermore, even now, he has not been able to sense where the owner of that vital energy is, and he cannot detect even a trace of its aura.

Combining these two points, he immediately realized that the newcomer was extremely strong, most likely stronger than him.

"Buzz!"

A piercing whistling sound rang out again.

The man was not answered by the words of the person who had secretly intervened, but by another surge of blood energy containing terrifying power.

This time, the man, now on guard, immediately waved the Corpse-Raising Banner in his hand the moment the power of blood and qi surged in, tearing open a dark rift in the air and devouring all the incoming power of blood and qi.

"Buzz!"

Another whooshing sound rang out.

As the sound rang out, a figure as fast as lightning flashed out of the forest, charging towards the man with a massive amount of vital energy.

The figure attacked with incredible speed.

So fast that even a man with Biological Rank as high as Epic Tier 1 hadn't reacted before his head was smashed open by a punch, and his upper body exploded as well, turning into a rain of blood that splattered all over the ground.

Only the lower half of the body remained standing on the ground, struggling desperately to rebuild itself, trying its best to grow a new upper body and a new head.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain.

Because soon another equally powerful punch came crashing down, blasting his remaining lower body into a rain of blood swirling with wisps of black mist.

Even if he turned into a pool of blood, the man still wanted to be rebuilt.

Numerous Blood Bead floating in the air rapidly re-coagulated, forming a hazy human shape.

However, less than half a second after it took human form, it was blasted into a shower of blood by a punch.

"Bass!"

A ignition sound rang out.

The rain of blood that filled the sky suddenly ignited into crimson flames with every drop.

In the blink of an eye, it was burned into nothingness and disappeared into the air.

The possibility of flesh and blood being rebuilt has been completely lost.

In the moments before all the blood in his body was completely burned away.

Even men couldn't understand why an Earthling with Biological Rank of only the Rare Tier 9 could kill him in an instant.

On the other side.

Su Jiujiu witnessed the man being killed instantly and was completely stunned.

Her pretty face, which was both innocent and alluring, was filled with disbelief.

Lin Zichen?

How could it be him?

That man was an Epic- level powerhouse from the Land of Extinction; how could Lin Zichen turn him into a pool of blood with just two punches?

Su Jiujiu recognized the person's face and was immediately overwhelmed with shock when she realized it was Lin Zichen, whom she had long coveted.

Just a year ago, Lin Zichen was just an ordinary being, easily manipulated by her Ordinary Rank clone.

In just one short year, Lin Zichen had grown to the point where he could easily kill an Epic- level powerhouse that even she couldn't handle—this was outrageous.

While Su Jiujiu thought it was outrageous.

Lin Zichen, who instantly killed the man, also found it absurd and utterly unbelievable.

Before reaching the stream, he was prepared to fight the man to the death.

Therefore, he specifically told Shen Qinghan not to get too close and to keep her at a distance.

This way, if anything unexpected happens, Shen Qinghan will still have a chance to escape.

To his surprise, the Exotic Human from the Land of Extinction, whose Biological Rank was as high as Epic Tier 1, couldn't even withstand a single punch from him. His head and upper body were blasted apart by the punch.

This result was truly unexpected.

"Lin Zi, is he dead?"

Seeing that the battle seemed to be over, Shen Qinghan, who was hiding at the end of the stream, immediately broke out of the water and went to Lin Zichen's side, asking him this question cautiously.

As she asked this question, her senses were at their maximum, constantly monitoring every rustle and movement around her.

After all, the man who was just instantly killed was an Epic- level powerhouse.

No one can guarantee that the other party doesn't have some special means of avoiding death, allowing them to escape a fatal blow.

In this situation, one really has to be cautious.

He must be dead.

Lin Zichen sensed the man's presence hundreds of times in an instant, but he couldn't detect it even once, so he guessed that the man must be dead.

At least, that body was definitely dead.

As for whether the other party is just an insignificant clone, that remains to be seen.

After a moment, he regained his senses.

Lin Zichen wasted no time and quickly looked at Su Jiujiu in front of him, asking, "Can you still run?"

Su Jiujiu shook her head. "My body is too exhausted, I can't run away."

Lin Zichen didn't say much after hearing this, and directly pulled Shen Qinghan into his arms.

Then, he Flash Step to Su Jiujiu's side and pulled her into his arms.

After securing the two, Lin Zichen immediately had an idea, his blood and qi surged, and he carried the two of them at full speed towards the direction where Captain Zhao Wuyan was.

He wasn't sure if more Exotic Human from the Land of Extinction would come looking for him, so he needed to get to Zhao Wuyan's place as soon as possible to inform him, in case anything unexpected happened.

He held her tightly, and a strange feeling involuntarily arose in Su Jiujiu's heart.

It wasn't the feeling of being instantly moved, but rather a strong sense of unease.

Even now, she still feels it's all so unreal.

It feels like even in my dreams, I would hardly dream about what is happening right now.

A weak, ordinary Earthling a year ago has become a powerful figure capable of instantly killing Epic- level powerhouses.

This is simply a monster, utterly horrifying.

Lin Zichen was unaware of what Su Jiujiu was thinking, and he just focused on charging forward, the airflow he generated during his sprint making the dense forest rustle.

"Why are you being hunted by the Exotic Human of the Land of Extinction? Could you please give me a brief summary of what happened?"

On the way to Zhao Wuyan's place, Lin Zichen drove quickly while asking Su Jiujiu in his arms.

Upon hearing the question, Su Jiujiu composed herself slightly and quickly answered:

"The Qingqiu Ancient Mountain where I am is currently under siege by the Elder Tree of the Sun-Moon Sacred Land and the Lord of Extinction of the Land of Extinction."

"My aunt, who is also the Mountain Master of Qingqiu Ancient Mountain, told me to go to the Eastern Region before I went down the mountain to find her old flame and ask him to come to my rescue."

"I followed my aunt's instructions and secretly left Qingqiu Ancient Mountain through the teleportation array to head to the Eastern Region. However, I hadn't gone far after descending the mountain when I encountered that Epic- level powerhouse that you just easily killed."

Su Jiujiu didn't hide anything and told Lin Zichen everything she knew.

She now needs Lin Zichen's help to escape, and dares not hide anything, for fear of displeasing Lin Zichen.

"I see."

After hearing the answer, Lin Zichen replied with this indifferent sentence.

After answering the question, Su Jiujiu hesitated for a moment before asking curiously, "I want to know, in just one year, why has your strength improved so much?"

"Because I have a high talent for evolution."

Lin Zichen answered calmly.

Upon receiving this answer, Su Jiujiu felt that Lin Zichen was definitely hiding his true abilities.

In just one short year, he evolved from an Ordinary Rank creature to a powerhouse capable of instantly killing an Epic- level Exotic Human. This is something that can't be achieved simply by having evolutionary talent.

Su Jiujiu thought that Lin Zichen must have obtained a lot of evolution resources in the past year, coupled with his unprecedented evolution talent, which is why he was able to evolve so quickly.

Even so, it is still very impressive that Lin Zichen has achieved his current strength.

Su Jiujiu asked herself honestly, no matter how many incredibly effective evolutionary resources she consumed in just one year, she couldn't possibly evolve from an ordinary creature into an Epic- level powerhouse at lightning speed.

Lost in thought, Su Jiujiu suddenly realized a very important question.

Do I still have the right to make Lin Zichen my bed slave?

It seems they no longer qualify.

If I were to become someone, it would probably be someone else who becomes Lin Zichen's bed slave...
