Lin Qian roared at the male deer, and the spirit sword stopped attacking with full force, instead using it to harass and constantly interfere with the fox's movements.
Without hesitation, the male stag unleashed a series of black beams of light, all aimed at the fox's weak points. Soon, the fox's movements became somewhat disordered.
Lin Qian's eyes brightened slightly as he stared intently at the fox's movements.
The small sword had somehow hidden itself to its side, but the spiritual energy emanating from it was growing stronger and stronger.
Seeing the fox once again dodge the black light, disregarding the wind blade attack of courage, Lin Qian's spirits lifted. Now!
"Buzz—!"
A sword rang out, and the spirit sword streaked towards the fox like a streak of light.
"Awooo!!!"
The small white sword drew a spray of dark red blood as it pierced a wound in the fox's left chest.
Lin Qian's attack, which he had poured most of his spiritual power into, was incredibly powerful. However, seeing the fox still standing and roaring even with its chest pierced, Lin Qian felt a chill in his heart.
That's a monster! The dead are definitely harder to deal with than the living!
A strange, hoarse roar echoed through the sky, and the fox frantically swung its tail, launching an indiscriminate attack.
Dark red blood kept flowing from the fist-sized wound on its chest, but the fox seemed oblivious and its movements were not hindered at all.
Lin Qian quickly called for a retreat; they couldn't continue fighting the monster now—it had gone mad!
"Roar!" Attack with all your might!
With a roar, the four spirit beasts launched their attacks simultaneously!
As the foxes launched their frenzied attack, dust filled the area outside the palace, and the already collapsed rubble was continuously smashed into powder by the six fox tails.
At this point, tactics were no longer effective, because the fox had completely lost its will to fight; it was driven only by instinct to destroy.
Although the fox's attack was ferocious, its immense aura was gradually weakening.
Lin Qian knew that the fox's health bar was decreasing, and he had to hold on! If he could hold on, he would win!
…………
Elsewhere, the tiger father and the tigress mother met in a new area.
The two big cats were overjoyed to see each other, and they nuzzled each other with their big heads, showing their affection.
"Roar." Looking for the little ones.
The stepmother nuzzled her husband's neck before immediately setting off to find Brother Lin Qian.
This area is desolate and lacks any spiritual energy; it's not worth wasting time on.
Each newly appeared area actually had opportunities such as spiritual plants, but Tiger Dad and Stepmother arrived too late, and all the opportunities in that area had already been claimed.
The tiger father growled in agreement, but he was also worried about the two brothers. There were many spirit beasts in the area, and the two little cubs might not be able to compete with the other beasts.
As for the large number of ordinary beasts that came in, Tiger Dad didn't take them seriously. They were spirit beasts, and the difference in their life level couldn't be made up for by things like age. Ordinary beasts couldn't cause any harm to the two tiger cubs.
Tiger Dad probably never imagined that his two cubs would not only be in a different situation than them, but also encounter few spirit beasts along the way, instead facing a boss.
And we're about to grind the boss down.
The enormous fox was covered in wounds and looked quite pitiful, while Lin Qian's four spirit beasts were unharmed. The female deer had healed most of the fox's injuries, so it could be said that the female deer made a great contribution in this battle.
Seeing that the six fox tails were no longer growing, Lin Qian smiled slightly.
The spirit sword hurtled forward without restraint, and with a "whoosh!" it severed a fox's tail. "Awooo!!" The fox howled in pain at losing its tail.
However, this is just the beginning!
"Awooo!!!" The white spirit sword swam around the fox like a nimble little fish, pulling off a tail with each stroke.
Without the support of its raging, boundless energy, the fox's tail could no longer exert its power, and the fox, exhausted, was powerless against the agile little sword.
Courage and the deer formed a triangle around the fox beside Lin Qian, completely blocking its path. The fox, having lost its power, was nothing more than a strong and ordinary spirit beast. Let alone suppressing them, it would be difficult for it to even resist.
This is a one-sided massacre!
The time for the raid has come!
With a loud "bang!" as it collapsed, the boss was finally taken down by Lin Qian's makeshift team.
Lin Qian stepped on the fox's head and, together with Yong Qi, twisted it off. With its head off, even if it came back to life, it would be easy to deal with.
Lin Qian let out a sigh of relief and plopped down next to the fox.
The four beasts had almost no spiritual energy left. If this guy didn't die, they would have no choice but to fight him hand-to-hand!
The fox quickly turned into specks of firefly light and vanished, leaving not even its fur or bones, but only a handful of ash.
The surrounding barriers vanished instantly, and Lin Qian and his four beasts felt a momentary daze before something else appeared in their minds.
Lin Qian looked inward at his sea of consciousness and was puzzled by the jade tablet that had suddenly appeared above the spiritual bead.
It's clear that this is the reward for killing "boost," but what is this thing? Why didn't I get any hints or clues?
Spiritual weapons like spirit swords can be understood immediately upon acquisition and binding with one's spiritual consciousness.
It is indeed spiritual consciousness. Every level-two spirit beast has spiritual consciousness, but unlike Lin Qian, it is not so large that it can project its consciousness outwards.
Spirit beasts like Courage and the deer, which are not spiritual beings, have very little consciousness and spiritual awareness when they break through to the second level. Their consciousness is only about an inch in size, and their spiritual awareness is only a trace.
Lin Qian stared at the jade tablet in silence. This thing was dropped by a powerful monster, so it couldn't be worse than a spiritual artifact dropped by a statue, could it?
No matter how much Lin Qian complained and studied it, the jade pendant was like a mascot, remaining motionless in his sea of consciousness, without any usable abilities.
But Lin Qian knew that this thing was definitely not just for show; it was definitely a good thing!
The jade plaque has no patterns or words on it; it's a smooth piece, like a jade blank, yet you can still tell it's a jade plaque.
After fiddling around for a while without success, Lin Qian had no choice but to temporarily give up. Since it was already bound to his soul, he wasn't afraid of losing it.
It was a bit of a shame that the effects of the jade pendant were unknown, but Lin Qian was not discouraged. He guessed that the jade pendant was in an unactivated state, and he would naturally understand its effects when the time was right.
Courage didn't care much about the jade tablet that appeared in his sea of consciousness; he couldn't take it out or use it.
The little guy touched his head and then stopped thinking.
The two deer seemed to sense something, and the two jade fragments flew out of their sea of consciousness and then merged into one.
This situation greatly surprised Lin Qian and Yong Qi. Lin Qian was extremely astonished. How could Ma Lu's piece be only half a piece?!
Looking at the complete jade pendant in his mind, Lin Qian secretly compared it with the complete version that the deer had pieced together. He breathed a sigh of relief and was secretly delighted.
