Chapter 332: Blessed Land! The Advancement Requirement Has Been Met!

~7 min read 1,350 words

In a dense jungle where the light was dim.

Qian Jin held a shield in his left hand and a battle saber in his right, walking cautiously across the muddy ground.

It was obvious that he was in very poor shape.

His hair was a tangled mess like a chicken's nest, and stubble bristled across his face.

His battle clothes were torn in many places, and bloodstains covered his body in several spots—some the enemy's, some his own.

But judging from the medical bandages wrapped all over his body, clearly more of the blood was his.

"Crack!"

Caught off guard for a moment, he stepped on and snapped a length of dead wood; the crisp sound rang out and spread far into the distance.

Qian Jin immediately stopped walking, his whole body tensing as he watched his surroundings warily, terrified that some fierce beast might appear.

He held that posture for a full three or four minutes, and only when no fierce beast appeared did he finally relax.

"If I'd known this damn relic site was like this, I wouldn't have come even if you beat me to death!"

Relaxing, Qian Jin cursed under his breath, his heart filled with regret.

He was a fourth-rank, high-stage ability user with a Class B enhancement-type ability.

He had originally commanded his own squad of ability users and regularly led them into the wilderness to hunt fierce beasts.

By a twist of fate, he had obtained a pass to Relic Site No. 9, and at first he hadn't planned to come at all.

But when he searched online and found that someone had obtained a high-rank ability user's inheritance inside Relic Site No. 9—

the greed in his heart got out of control, and he ultimately chose to come as a lone wolf.

What he hadn't expected was that the relic space was far more terrifying than he'd imagined!

Not only were there fourth-rank fierce beasts, even fifth-rank fierce beasts could be seen everywhere.

If his enhancement-type ability hadn't been good at escaping, over these dozen-plus days he would have died more than five or six times already!

"Now I understand why all those major powers move in teams.

Any lone wolf below sixth rank who comes in is basically asking to die!"

As Qian Jin figured this out, he also felt a bit of relief in his heart.

Plenty of lone wolves had entered the relic space.

But those below fifth rank who were still alive today—probably only he was left, right?

People are like that: even when their own situation is dire,

the moment they think of someone worse off, they immediately feel much better.

"Roar—"

Just as he was secretly enjoying himself, a low growl rang out.

Immediately after, from the distant forest, a gray giant wolf the size of a tank charged out!

Its huge eyes swept the area and immediately spotted Qian Jin.

"Jungle Wind Wolf?!" Qian Jin's face went deathly pale in an instant.

An ordinary Jungle Wind Wolf he naturally wouldn't fear, but judging from its size, this Jungle Wind Wolf had clearly reached fifth rank!

Even worse, his speed-oriented enhancement-type ability couldn't outrun this Jungle Wind Wolf at all!

"Looks like Old Qian is cashing in his chips here today, but even if I die, I won't let you have it easy!"

Qian Jin's face hardened with vicious resolve, and he decisively activated his ability.

A pair of fuzzy yellow leopard ears sprouted on his head, and a set of sharp fangs faintly appeared in his mouth.

At the same time, a fourth-grade Bloodburst Pill appeared in his hand.

"Roar-whine~~~"

Just as he was about to swallow the Bloodburst Pill and launch a final desperate fight—

the Jungle Wind Wolf charging toward him suddenly stopped, lowered its head slightly, and let out a threatening snarl.

"This is...?" Qian Jin was instantly stunned.

Having long frequented the wilderness, he naturally knew this was a fierce beast's instinctive reaction when facing a powerful opponent.

But he was only a fourth-rank high-stage, and he hadn't even swallowed the Bloodburst Pill yet—how could he possibly make this fifth-rank Jungle Wind Wolf feel threatened?

"Whine~~"

Just as he was feeling bewildered, the Jungle Wind Wolf, which had been crouching low—

actually turned around, moved its four limbs, and fled in another direction for its life.

The Jungle Wind Wolf possessed the trait of commanding the wind element; wreathed in swift wind, its speed was astonishingly fast!

In the blink of an eye, it had charged a full forty or fifty meters away!

Such behavior left Qian Jin even more baffled:

"It fled without the slightest hesitation? Am I really that terrifying?"

But just then, a low voice suddenly rang out from behind him: "Hmph! Think you can run?!"

As the words fell, a boom rang out, followed by a piercing sonic boom!

The next moment,

the fifth-rank Jungle Wind Wolf, still in mid-charge, had its head directly blown apart by a crimson-gold Lei Mao radiating terrifying energy fluctuations!

Boom!!

The Jungle Wind Wolf's massive head, like a winter melon, exploded on the spot.

The surrounding green leaves and shrubs were immediately dyed bright red by the spurting fresh blood.

And the Jungle Wind Wolf's huge headless body, carried by inertia, charged forward another four or five meters, crashed into several trees, and then collapsed with a thunderous boom.

"Lightning-type ability! One-shot kill!"

Qian Jin stared blankly at this scene, finally realizing that the Forest Wind Wolf was not afraid of him, but of someone else.

In sudden realization, his body tensed again.

In this ruin space, the threat posed by human psychics was no lower than that of ferocious beasts!

At that moment, a young man stepped out from the side forest.

The young man was tall and built, his features unremarkable.

In his hand he held a pitch-black spear, faint crimson-gold lightning swirling around his body.

He was clearly a lone wanderer!

What shocked Qian Jin was that the man's aura, like his own, was only Fourth-Rank Upper Tier.

"Fourth-Rank Upper Tier can instantly kill a Fifth-Rank ferocious beast?"

Qian Jin drew a sharp breath inward—he was undoubtedly an absolute genius from some psychic noble family!

The only thing that made him feel lucky was that he was a Daxia native.

"If I give him all the examination crystals I have, will he spare me?"

With this thought, Qian Jin waited respectfully in place.

Yet the man didn't even glance at him, walking straight toward the corpse of the Forest Wind Wolf...

'Ding~~, slain one Fifth-Rank Lower Tier Forest Wind Wolf, Psychic Points +450!'

A crisp system notification echoed in his mind; Xu Jingming's lips faintly curved into a smile.

Compared to the Survival Contest of the National University League, low-tier ferocious beasts in this ruin space were indeed far fewer.

But the number of high-tier ferocious beasts was vastly greater!

Precisely because of this, in just eleven days since entering the ruin space, he had amassed nearly fifty thousand Psychic Points!

Keep in mind,

During the Survival Contest, he stayed awake nonstop and harvested only eighty thousand Psychic Points in ten days.

In this ruin space, to maintain his condition against ever-possible ferocious beasts—or even human psychics—

he set aside six hours each day for rest.

Even so, the Psychic Points he gained in eleven days were only thirty thousand short of what he earned during the entire Survival Contest.

This accumulation speed was by no means slow.

"This ruin space is truly my blessed ground."

With a thought, Xu Jingming opened his system panel.

"Huh? I have enough Psychic Points to advance!"

Seeing the plus sign after his level, Xu Jingming's eyes lit up instantly.
