After nightfall, the sky drew back the curtain of a new day. After a great fire, most of the outer perimeter of Darkmoon Forest was burned through, turning into ashes. The guards collected the ashes in bags and took them back to Titan City to be used as fertilizer for the seeds.
After all, scattering the ashes of the enemy on the unborn life is such a beautiful and righteous act—a quote from the little fox.
As soon as Xiao Han got off the carriage, someone immediately went to greet him.
"Sir, your breakfast is ready."
Khrushchev respectfully presented the food to Xiao Han.
After simmering overnight, one portion of the bear paw was prepared and became a delicacy, while the other portion was frozen for later meals.
This was Xiao Han's breakfast: the Bear King's Paw, an ingredient enhanced to its extreme, capable of shattering the void with a single blow. It was served in a rich meat broth. After washing up, he ate with great comfort and in a very pleasant mood.
The bear paws were a large portion, but Xiao Han had an even bigger appetite. The meat was tender and not greasy at all. With the addition of seasonings, it had a special fragrance. The thick soup made the aroma even more intense. After eating a whole pot of bear paws, Xiao Han felt a layer of silver light flowing around his body. The speed of refining his foundation accelerated, and even his spirit and energy were strengthened!
"Not bad, a commander-level elite demon is a treasure from head to toe." Xiao Han found that his energy and spirit were unusually vigorous. After eating the bear paw meat, he was full of energy and had inexhaustible strength. His eyes were filled with dark red light, which could make a point of focus in his gaze automatically ignite.
With a gentle wave of his hand, the subtle force he exerted unleashed a burst of energy, creating ripples visible to the naked eye.
One punch can shatter a knight's heavy armor and pierce his lungs!
Earlier, he had blasted through his enemies, which had greatly depleted his vital energy. Although he had eaten a large amount of meat, he was still somewhat depleted of his vital energy.
But now, he is full of energy, and with the help of the Serpent Wing Ring's properties, he has not only recovered all of his health, but has also faintly broken through his previous health limit.
"Monster meat is a great tonic for me, and the potential aura from refining it can further enhance my attribute values. I'll eat it again for the next meal."
Without hesitation, Xiao Han made a decision to treat the Dark Moon Forest as a wholesale market for farmed ingredients. In order to break the human limit for the hundredth time, he would harvest a batch of chives every winter to refine his foundation and break through the limit.
Every pore on his body opened up, spewing out vital energy that automatically condensed into a two-winged fire serpent, coiling around him, bathing his entire body in blood flames.
Then, the coiled fire serpent condensed into a majestic and handsome fire-patterned armor, with snake-shaped crossbows on its shoulders and a layer of dark gold rose patterns appearing on its chest. In Xiao Han's perception, wearing this heavy armor increased his strength by 30% and his defense by 50%, but reduced his speed by about 10%.
"My lord, this is... a soul-binding armor?"
Khrushchev exclaimed in surprise, his gaze burning as he looked at the summoned armor. He couldn't help but exclaim, "It suits you perfectly, my lord. Wearing it, you truly look wise and mighty, with the air of a Norse god of war!"
"Hmm, it's alright."
Xiao Han nodded slightly, looked at his subordinates collecting ashes around him, and asked, "Nothing major happened last night, right?"
"All is well, Lord City Lord."
Khruf laughed. Amid the raging fire, no mindless monsters offered up their prey. Instead, a few roars could be faintly heard in the forest, a testament to the monsters' shock and anger.
However, Hruf knew these monsters very well. The monsters that had fled earlier carried news of fear and spread it to the Darkmoon Forest. According to the little fox, this was to lure out the king of the forest to deliver meat.
As for a counterattack?
Haha, I burned your house down, and you still want to rush up and bite people?
Are you sure it's not a meat delivery?
"Then, the next destination is the wasteland."
Xiao Han said calmly that he was not insisting on the mission in the Dark Moon Forest. He had been testing the waters for the past two days, and the most important thing was the fat sheep in the wasteland... oh, old friends from afar.
"As you wish, Lord City Lord."
Khrushchev immediately gave the order, but Xiao Han put down his homemade chopsticks, sensed something, and looked up at the sky.
"call out!"
Three pale golden streaks of light swept across the void, traversing the sky and tearing through the clouds!
At the same time, what was chilling was that the streak of light flashed by at a sharp speed, carrying a tremendous momentum that caused the void to collapse and the sky to be torn apart!
It stirred up a strange phenomenon of lightning and thunder, and a tributary of the River of Time flowed out from the pierced crack. The cascading, withered river water touched the boundary of reality and transformed into solidified glass and amber.
Looking at it, Xiao Han saw that the River of Time, which only the strongest could command on this section of the Golden Road, was covered with a layer of frost, like clouds hanging from the sky!
In an instant, a pair of pupils burst forth with stunning flames, gazing at the crystallized River of Time, attempting to unravel the secrets of the Golden Road!
【Crimson Demon Eyes】!
With the help of this skill, his vision leaped tens of thousands of meters away, staring blankly at the crystallized River of Time in mid-air.
No, it's not sluggishness...
His gaze seemed to be drawn into a crystallized river of time, his thoughts ceased to function, like a person in a vegetative state who had lost consciousness!
The crystallized River of Time can be understood as time standing still. Like a demon god, it is something that professionals below the golden level cannot touch or look directly at, otherwise they will be trapped in frozen time.
"grown ups?!"
Seeing Xiao Han's unusual behavior, Khrushchev disregarded the proper etiquette between ruler and subject and hurriedly went forward to shake him.
His tentacles turned bright red, his palms scorched by the high temperature of the armor. He gathered his qi and blood, which was permeated with a thin film of qi and blood, in an attempt to awaken Xiao Han.
