*Thud!* The spear pierced into the body of the ape-like holy spirit beast. And that wasn't all; the immense impact propelled Jiang Yuan entirely into the beast's body.
When Jiang Yuan reappeared, he was covered in blood.
Thump! The bullet pierced the chest of the ape-like holy beast, in the same spot Jiang Yuan had stabbed. Because Leng Yue fired the gun subconsciously, she had lost her target and didn't know where the bullet had landed, as she was bleeding from all seven orifices.
“It’s not dead yet!” Jiang Yuan turned around. The fact that his strength was over 200 determined the Holy Spirit Beast’s powerful physique. At most, this attack could only put it into a state of serious injury. It would be difficult to truly kill it.
"Then let's strike again!" Jiang Yuan sheathed his spear, and after unleashing a stealth attack, the spear became ordinary, even less effective than the Chain Finger Wrist Binding Technique in his hand. "Ancient Fist!"
An ancient aura emanated from Jiang Yuan's fist, captivating even Jiang Yuan himself for a moment.
As if an ancient god had descended, his fist landed on the ape-like holy beast.
The wound appeared to be intact, without even a dent, but in reality, it was completely torn apart inside! Moreover, a peculiar aura permeated the inside of the wound, a sense of ancient decay.
"You actually managed to beat me!" The ape-like holy beast finally came to its senses, but it was too late; its body had already been pierced and was in a state of ruin.
"You think you can hang my head in front of your house with this? Don't you think you're just dreaming?" Jiang Yuan retorted sarcastically. Speak human language to humans, and ghost language to ghosts. There's no need to be kind to a Holy Spirit Beast that spews vulgarities.
"I may not be able to kill you today, but one day the Holy Spirit Clan will surely cut off your head!" The ape-like Holy Spirit Beast had no intention of being a prisoner.
"Oh!" Jiang Yuan pressed his waist, then laughed, "Your Holy Spirit Pavilion? Are you sure anyone can handle me?"
"What, you want to fight a losing battle with an egg!" the ape-like holy beast sneered. Its heart had been pierced, and a large amount of unknown energy was emanating from its body, making it very difficult for it to survive. Now, it only wanted to kill this despicable human in front of it.
"Trying to break a rock with an egg? Like a rock lying here waiting to die, just like you?" Jiang Yuan grabbed his spear and pointed it at the forehead of the ape-like holy spirit beast.
"Go twenty kilometers in that direction, and you'll know what it means to humiliate yourself!" the ape-like holy beast sneered.
"A provocation? You're so eager to send me to my death!"
Jiang Yuan's face turned pale. As his indomitable fighting spirit waned, he discovered a coincidence—a damn infuriating coincidence.
With a flip, the ape-like holy beast prepared to fight Jiang Yuan with its last strength. Seeing this, Jiang Yuan knew that the ape-like holy beast had to be killed.
"Charge punch!"
Jiang Yuan killed the ape-like holy spirit beast in front of him with a powerful punch.
With a bang, the ape-like holy beast collapsed completely.
"Marks of the deceased have been found. Should they be added?"
"Take it!" Jiang Yuan habitually offered the flowers to the person.
Everyone is fighting to survive, so there aren't many direct grudges between them. Now that you've killed the other person, there's no more hatred. It's better to send blessings to the deceased.
"Activate the advanced talent in the Mark of the Dead—Mind Control?"
"activation!"
This is not something to consider. It is one of the few high-level talents that Jiang Yuan has seen, and it seems to be quite good.
"Please select a replacement talent!"
Jiang Yuan hesitated for a few moments but still replaced the Soul Splitting Needle. The Soul Splitting Needle was too low-level and its power was no longer sufficient.
"Talent replacement successful!"
"Current talents: Advanced talent - Mind Control, Intermediate talent - Chains of Order, Intermediate talent - Breath of Stone."
With the death of the Holy Spirit Beast, Leng Yue, bleeding from all seven orifices, rushed over.
"Jiang Yuan, are you alright!" Leng Yue held the gun in one hand and rubbed her eyes with the other, her vision blurred by blood and tears.
Jiang Yuan was furious when he heard this. "Big sister, are you Cupid or something?"
"Huh?" Leng Yue was a little confused.
Jiang Yuan didn't explain, but instead took away the hand that was covering his waist, revealing a bloody hole ten centimeters in diameter on his waist.
"this!!!!"
Leng Yue was instantly bewildered upon seeing the wound.
"Next time, aim carefully before you shoot. Do you know that this shot almost ended half of my happy life?" Jiang Yuan gasped.
That's right. When Leng Yue broke free from the control, her mind was a complete mess. In addition, she was bleeding from all seven orifices and was unable to see. She just relied on her senses to fire a shot randomly. However, at that moment, Jiang Yuan happened to pierce the corpse of the Holy Spirit Beast.
Therefore, although Leng Yue's spear hit the Holy Spirit Beast, it coincidentally struck Jiang Yuan instead.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!" Leng Yue quickly apologized.
"Hiss!" Jiang Yuan used his fingers to pull out a fragment of the bullet from the wound. This enhanced bullet was already capable of causing great damage to a seventh-tier life form.
Seeing this, Leng Yue didn't dare to look up.
Jiang Yuan could only comfort him, "But in the end, you're still pretty good. Your shooting skills, which kill two birds with one stone, are something others can't learn in several lifetimes!"
Hearing this, Leng Yue blushed even more. She really wanted to kill the Holy Spirit Beast, but who knew she would end up hitting Jiang Yuan instead.
"His face is all red now!" Jiang Yuan threw away the bullet, but fragments were still stuck in his wound, so he grimaced in pain.
"I..." Leng Yue wanted to explain, but didn't know what to say. Her relationship with Jiang Yuan was limited to that of friends, so any explanation seemed weak.
"No need to apologize, it would be more practical to have some conscience and help me remove the shrapnel!" Jiang Yuan had just finished fighting and found that his fingers were not as nimble as usual, making it difficult for him to remove the shrapnel.
"Mm!" Leng Yue nodded and said softly.
"What a piece of junk! One bullet and it shattered into several pieces, it hurt like hell!" Jiang Yuan found a spot near the Holy Spirit Beast and sat down. "Alright, this is fine, I'll cultivate a bit while I'm at it!"
This sacred beast was too large to fit into a storage ring, so the only way to refine it was to start a fire on the spot.
He hadn't killed many monsters and holy spirits, so his Great Wilderness Body Tempering Technique was still stuck at the fourth level. But this seventh-level holy spirit beast was enough to get his Great Wilderness Body Tempering Technique to the sixth level.
That was when things were going well both inside and outside, and the tough guy was truly impressive.
"Jiang Yuan, are you really not angry?" Leng Yue asked Jiang Yuan as she removed the shrapnel after disinfecting the wound.
"I'm angry, of course I'm angry!" Jiang Yuan squinted. "This damned Holy Spirit Beast didn't even drop its core, I'm absolutely furious!"
"Uh!" Leng Yue paused. She was prepared to be scolded by Jiang Yuan, but she didn't expect him to talk about whether the core would explode.
"Fortunately, I got a spot in the Holy Spirit Pavilion!" Jiang Yuan comforted himself.
"Aren't you afraid it's lying?" Leng Yue asked, frowning.
"What does it matter if it's fake or not? The goal is the same anyway. It wants me dead, and I want to find the Holy Spirit Pavilion. Although the process may change, the result is the same!" Jiang Yuan smiled.
"Aren't you afraid of dying to find her?"
