As Ilya activated her skill, the ground ripples became increasingly intense.

roar!!!

With a loud roar, a huge black tiger, five meters long and three meters tall, burst through the roof of the temple and leaped out.

The building behind them collapsed, and amidst the flying dust, three smaller black tigers jumped out of the ruins in a disheveled state.

"Prepare for battle!"

Qin Xiao immediately shouted.

Simultaneously, the identification skill is activated.

Black Wind Tiger, Blue Talent, Gold One-Star, Skills: Tiger Roar; Gale Claw!

The remaining three are all Black Wind Tigers with silver level eight or nine stars.

"Be careful! I'll take the big gold-tier one, and you can have the three high-level silver-tier Black Wind Tigers!"

Qin Xiao felt relieved, but still loudly gave instructions.

Upon hearing this, Ye Qinghuan, Liu Piaoxu, and the other two all tensed up.

However, of the three of them and their six tamed beasts, only four were capable of direct combat, but they were not too far beyond the capabilities of three high-level silver-rank beasts.

Qin Xiao took the initiative to control Ilya to go forward and directly manipulated the terrain to separate the big tiger and the three little tigers.

Bai Ling was sent by Qin Xiao to look after Ye Qinghuan and the other two.

Although they should be able to win, it's safer to have Bai Ling keep an eye on things to avoid any unexpected incidents.

As for Ilya, with her Silver Ten-Star level and rank suppression, facing this Gold One-Star Blue Black Wind Tiger was a piece of cake.

With the live-stream camera blocked by the earthen wall, Qin Xiao rode Ilya leisurely around the black tiger.

Ilya raised her hand and unleashed a thunderous spear, which shot towards the black tiger in an instant.

With a nimble leap, Black Tiger dodged the spear.

However, upon landing, Ilya controlled the ground to roll, directly trapping the black tiger's limbs.

Taking this opportunity, Ilya threw several more spears.

The black tiger had long whiskers and fur, and its eyes were wide open. It struggled to pull out its front paws and struck with one claw.

A faint claw strike shattered one spear and deflected the other.

However, another spear pierced the opponent's shoulder directly, crackling with electricity, and a large charred black patch appeared on Black Tiger's shoulder and back.

Qin Xiao nodded. This black tiger's defense was much stronger than that of the previous gold-level monkey.

The monkey was struck by Ilya's spear, which pierced right through it.

Black Tiger struggled to break free of the rubble, letting out a roar that sent ripples of sound outwards.

Sitting on Ilya's back, Qin Xiao felt slightly dizzy, but the damage was quickly absorbed by Jianmu under the Life Flow skill.

Inside the space, the massive canopy of the towering Jianmu tree swayed slightly, as if blown by a gentle breeze, and then remained motionless.

Ilya, on the other hand, was completely unaffected. With her Lucky Charm skill, she had a high resistance to such mental attacks.

Seeing her spear shattered, Ilya summoned several more lightning spears, which hovered around her.

The intense lightning illuminated her face, giving it a cold and stern look.

If Qin Xiao hadn't been sitting on her back, she would have charged forward with the Thunder Spear long ago.

However, for now, Ilya is still choosing the safest approach.

The central Earth element controls movement and then continuously throws Thunder Spears.

It's fair to say that she turned an invincible warrior into a marksman.

Few beasts could withstand such high-intensity, high-frequency attacks.

Soon the black tiger was covered in electric shock and puncture wounds, and its hind legs were limping.

Black Tiger let out a low growl, crouched low, and slowly retreated, trying to escape.

Qin Xiao got off Ilya's back. "Ilya, it's up to you now. Take it down."

Ilya excitedly raised her hoof, waved her hand, and a long spear appeared in her hand, which she then charged towards the black tiger.

Having been suppressed from a distance for so long, the black tiger, seeing Ilya charging towards it, mustered its last strength and pounced on Ilya with its massive body.

Ilya did not retreat, but instead held her spear horizontally to meet the Black Tiger's attack head-on.

Despite the powerful attack, Ilya's fair arms did not tremble at all, and her body did not retreat in the slightest. With all four hooves exerting force, she thrust the spear with the forepaw of the charred black tiger in her hand.

The massive black tiger was thrown backward by the impact.

With a flourish, the spear suddenly blazed brightly, plunging deep into the black tiger's jaw and emerging from its hard skull.

Black Tiger couldn't even let out a scream; his brain was instantly charred by the electric shock.

Ilya stepped forward, pulled out her spear, which brought out a crystal-clear spirit crystal. She ran around the black tiger once and excitedly returned to Qin Xiao's side.

Qin Xiao climbed onto her back and gently stroked Ilya's head.

"Thank you, Ilya."

Ilya nuzzled Qin Xiao's hand and handed him the spirit crystal.

Qin Xiao glanced at it; it was a gold-tier wind-elemental spirit crystal with no skills, so he casually returned it to her.

"You can absorb it; it will replenish what you've consumed."

Ilya didn't say much, just nodded.

Qin Xiao rode her to the other side, where Ye Qinghuan and the other two had already killed a black tiger.

Two black tigers remain, being held back by Liu Piaoxu's purple-lightning sable and Xiong Da.

Ye Qinghuan's Ahri was burning another black tiger with Crimson Lotus Foxfire.

It also controlled some small fire-like beasts to pounce on the black tiger.

The Black Tiger could dodge and use skills to defend against the attacks coming from the front, but this little fire-like beast was impossible to guard against, constantly rushing towards its body and burning it black.

Soon, the black tiger, covered in burns, was taken away by Ahri's fire needle skill, riddled with holes.

On the other side, facing the attack of the Purple Lightning Sable, the Black Tiger, though still alive, was also in bad shape.

However, Xiong Da and Xiong Er were injured, with some lacerations on their claws.

As the purple sable swept past again, Black Tiger lost an eye.

"Now! Xiong Er, use the Earth Surge!"

Upon hearing this, Xiong Er roared, and the ground in the distance suddenly bulged up, with a huge stone pillar instantly protruding and completely deforming the black tiger's belly.

Xiong Er, having achieved a great victory with a single strike, charged towards Black Tiger, clad in rock armor, and grabbed the tiger's head, delivering a resounding slap across the face.

The black tiger's hook-like claws tore the bear's skin open, sending bits of flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Soon, Black Tiger was unable to rise again and was killed when Xiong Er bit his neck and tore it apart.

Seeing this, Qin Xiao said to Bai Ling, "Ling'er, treat her."

Xiong Da was the lowest rank and a tank character, so he was the most seriously injured. Xiong Er was next, and although Xiong Er had the Rock Armor skill, the opponent's claw attack still left a lot of tearing wounds on his body.

With Bai Ling's repeated treatments and recovery efforts, most of Xiong Da and Xiong Er's wounds quickly healed.

As for Liu Piaoxu and Ye Qinghuan, apart from the Stone Flame Crocodile Dragon suffering a bit of a bruise while protecting Ye Qinghuan from being approached, their tamed beasts didn't suffer any external injuries. They were only hit by a few tiger roars, which somewhat impacted their mental state.

"Let's take a break. We'll go down the mountain later to find a few silver-tier beasts, and that should be enough for today."

Seeing that the treatment was almost complete, Qin Xiao left a message and walked towards the collapsed building.

There was also a badge buried underneath.

Soon, Ilya controlled the earth to surge and retrieved the badge.

Back in the team, Zhou Lei dug out the three spirit crystals and recorded the points.

After resting for another hour, I absorbed some spirit crystals to recover.

After grabbing a bite to eat, just past noon, Qin Xiao led the group down the mountain.

They searched for the strange beast while hurrying down the mountain.

Just as we reached the foot of the mountain, a restless commotion arose from the distant forest.

Large numbers of low-level beasts fled towards this place in droves.

In the sky, a blood-red light curtain slowly formed and gradually closed, enveloping the secret realm.

The live-streaming camera next to me seemed to have lost control and suddenly fell from the sky.
