Chapter 583

"The Howling Moon Yueyue Tianlang is actually dead? Who killed it?"

The Overlord looked quite puzzled, but he didn't care much, as he was still immersed in the joy of having just killed the Steel Earth Dragon.

"Is that Lin Qi? He's actually hunting the Titan Giant Ape with Pei Hongfeng!"

The Sword Emperor spoke up suddenly, and everyone followed his gaze, locking onto a corner where a fierce battle was erupting.

Two figures, one above and one below, were launching attacks on the massive Titan Giant Ape from different directions.

The two were indeed Pei Hongfeng and Lin Qi, and what surprised them even more was that Lin Qi, this Eighth Realm martial artist, could actually trade blows with a Level Nine Disaster Beast.

He was even able to leave wounds on the Titan Giant Ape.

The Overlord couldn't help but exclaim:

"Thinking of Lin Qi's talent, it's only natural that he can fight a Level Nine Disaster Beast!"

"Could it be that he killed the Howling Moon Yueyue Tianlang?"

The Silver-Armored Shanhe Wang beside him also spoke up: "That's possible!"

"Back in the early days of the Martial Path Epoch, the Red Emperor was the first in all of Blue Star to break through to the Eighth Realm."

"At the same time, he was also the first person to successfully kill a Level Nine Disaster Beast while at the Eighth Realm, which shocked the entire Blue Star at the time!"

"After him, no one else could do it, except for you, Overlord, and us joining forces to kill a Level Nine Disaster Beast at the Eighth Realm!"

"Perhaps today, a second person has appeared, and that is Lin Qi!"

Everyone nodded; today, they might be witnessing history.

"Let's move!"

The Overlord commanded, and the five of them moved simultaneously to kill the remaining four Disaster Beasts.

"Roar~"

"Boom!!"

With the help of the Overlord, the Sword Emperor, the Shanhe Wang, and the other two, the remaining four Level Nine Disaster Beasts were quickly killed!

Among them, the Nine-Headed Snake Emperor was the strongest, and it took the Sword Emperor's intervention to kill it completely.

As for Lin Qi's side, he played his part, causing significant damage to the Titan Giant Ape.

In the end, it was Pei Hongfeng who dealt the killing blow!

"Boom!"

The Titan Giant Ape's massive body fell, and Lin Qi looked at his Eighth-Stage Black Gold Great Spear; the tip was completely dulled, and there were even tiny cracks.

This great spear was also about to be scrapped!

His desire for a Ninth-Stage weapon became even stronger.

Pei Hongfeng was using a Ninth-Stage weapon, and the damage he dealt wasn't much different from his own.

If he had a Ninth-Stage great spear, he might have been able to kill the Titan Giant Ape even more easily.

Lin Qi deactivated his minor divine ability, instantly feeling his strength drain away, and a wave of exhaustion quickly surged into his heart.

Fortunately, he had the Golden Gangjin Tyrant Body, and the First Layer: Golden Gangjin Transformation didn't have very strong side effects.

He took out a bottle of Life Water and consumed it.

"Finally killed it!"

Pei Hongfeng exhaled at this moment, his expression exceptionally excited, and he looked at Lin Qi:

"Thanks to you this time, I was able to kill my first Level Nine Disaster Beast!"

"However, you need to change your weapon; without a Ninth-Stage battle blade, I couldn't have killed the Titan Giant Ape at all."

As the two were talking, two figures descended.

The Shanhe Wang, wearing silver armor, asked curiously:

"Lin Qi, did you kill the Howling Moon Yueyue Tianlang?"

Pei Hongfeng spoke up: "Lin Qi killed it; I saw it with my own eyes."

Lin Qi, standing beside him, nodded: "It was me!"

The Shanhe Wang exclaimed: "Worthy of being the strongest in the Eighth Realm!"

"From now on, our Black Dragon Base has a guarantee!"

"Enough talk, let's continue hunting Disaster Beasts!"

Lin Qi nodded, picked up his long spear, and continued to hunt other Disaster Beasts.

……

One hour after the super-large Disaster Beast tide broke out, the three space gates were completely closed.

The Ninth Realm martial artists also began to hunt Level Eight Disaster Beasts.

A large number of high-level Disaster Beasts were slaughtered, and Lin Qi was no exception; he found it very difficult to deal with a Level Nine Disaster Beast now.

But dealing with Level Seven and Eight Disaster Beasts was easy, and the merit points on his body were rising crazily.

Time reached 8:00 PM, the Disaster Beast tide was coming to an end, and a large number of martial artists began to return to the Black Dragon Base!

"Brother Qi, you are truly too fierce!"

"How did you do it?"

On the way back to the base, Lin Qi returned with Jiang Tao and the others.

Along the way, everyone expressed their amazement at Lin Qi's feat of killing a Level Nine Disaster Beast.

Lin Qi smiled after hearing this: "Taozi, you will be able to do it too in the future."

"However, what you need to do most right now is to quickly improve your own strength."

Jiang Tao's expression also became serious:

"I understand; in one month, I will definitely enter the Fire Seed Trial!"

"My teacher has also promised to help me borrow some merit points to exchange for a large amount of Blood Spirit Potions and Disaster Beast Crystals!"

Lin Qi nodded; Jiang Tao's teacher was the Heavenly Blade Li Qifeng, who definitely had more merit points than himself.

If he could help Jiang Tao exchange for resources, one month would be enough for his strength to improve significantly.

After all, in this selection, he was just a little bit short of entering the trial.

After parting ways with everyone, Lin Qi returned to his Room 206 alone.

"Hum!!"

The door opened, and Lin Qi took off his battle armor.

"Boom!"

The Eighth-Stage battle armor hit the ground, covered in cracks of all sizes, the most obvious ones being the masterpieces of the Level Nine Disaster Beast, the Howling Moon Yueyue Tianlang.

There was also the impact from the Titan Giant Ape, whose strength was even greater than the Howling Moon Yueyue Tianlang.

Lin Qi shook his head as he looked at the dense cracks on the armor; it was close to being scrapped, but it could still be repaired.

However, he didn't plan to repair it, because he would just buy a new one.

As for the old one, he thought he could donate it to the Cangqiong Martial University museum, which contained many old items from Ninth Realm martial artists.

Among them was a battle blade left by the Red Emperor; it was the blade the Red Emperor used to kill a Level Nine Disaster Beast at the Eighth Realm, which was completely scrapped but had great commemorative significance.

Many wealthy people were even willing to spend hundreds of millions to buy it.

Perhaps someone would be willing to buy his battle armor too.

He took out two more Black Gold Great Spears from his space bracelet, one of which was already broken in two and completely scrapped.

The other one was also on the verge of being scrapped after high-intensity combat, and the cracks on the spear tip were getting larger and larger.

Lin Qi exhaled and opened the War Home to check his personal data.

【Name: Lin Qi (Black Dragon Base)】

【Realm: Eighth Realm Aperture Training】

【Merit Points: 32.25 Million】

【Base Ranking: 1】

【Xia Guo Ranking: 5】

【Blue Star Ranking: 30】

……

"The ranking has indeed risen by a large margin!"

Lin Qi nodded as he looked at the ranking; today was a bumper harvest, and he had gained a full 17 million merit points, enough to buy a Peregrine Falcon fighter jet.

His current merit points already exceeded 32 million, enough to buy new battle armor and weapons.

Thinking of this, Lin Qi immediately opened the follow-up module and searched for Ninth-Stage battle armor, which refreshed quickly.

【Item: Ninth-Stage Battle Armor (Ordinary)】

【Description: Battle armor made to withstand Level Nine Disaster Beasts, capable of effectively resisting physical and energy impacts!】

【Merit Points: 15 Million】

……

Lin Qi was shocked when he saw this.

15 million merit points?

So expensive?!

This was the price of a Peregrine Falcon fighter jet!

However, Ninth-Stage battle armor could be used continuously to protect against injury, and 15 million merit points could be earned back quickly.

Moreover, this price was 20 times that of Eighth-Stage battle armor; an ordinary Eighth-Stage battle armor only cost 750,000 merit points.

Lin Qi looked at the word "Ordinary" and suddenly wanted to know how expensive the enhanced version was; he might be able to buy it directly.

So he searched again.

【Item: Ninth-Stage Battle Armor (Enhanced Version)】

【Description: Based on the ordinary version, it is made using different material metals according to the martial artist's awakened abilities, and its defensive capability is significantly improved.】

【Merit Points: 75 Million】

……

After seeing the price, Lin Qi instantly extinguished the idea of exchanging for it.

It was too expensive, 5 times the price of the ordinary version, 75 million merit points; he would need to kill at least 10 Level Nine Disaster Beasts to buy it.

In the entire Xia Guo, perhaps only a few people could afford it.

Lin Qi gave up; he would just buy the ordinary version, so he added the Ninth-Stage battle armor to his shopping cart.

Then he searched for Ninth-Stage weapons.

【Item: Ninth-Stage Long Spear (Ordinary Version)】

【Description: A weapon made for hunting Level Nine Disaster Beasts, using a large amount of Delta alloy, Epsilon alloy, etc., and improved to varying degrees according to the martial artist's awakened abilities.】

【Merit Points: 12 Million】

……

Lin Qi nodded; a Ninth-Stage long spear was only 3 million merit points cheaper than Ninth-Stage battle armor, and he could afford it.

He continued to look down and suddenly found a large area of Ninth-Stage weapons, all of which were long spears, so he looked at them curiously.

【Item: Black Gold Dragon Spear (Special Version)】

【Description: A top-tier long spear weapon made from top-grade alloy materials and the dragon horn of the Level Ten Disaster Beast, the Disaster Tianzai Yanlong, possessing unparalleled sharpness and extremely strong penetrating power and destructive power.】

【Suitable for martial artists who have awakened Gold, Earth, and Fire attributes.】

【Merit Points: 80 Million】

……

【Item: Purple Thunder Spear (Special Version)】

【Description: Made with the sharp claws of the Thunder Prison Violent Lion, using top-grade Delta alloy, Alpha alloy, Epsilon...】

【Suitable for martial artists who have awakened Gold and Thunder attribute abilities.】

【Merit Points: 75 Million】

……

After reading the first two special long spears, Lin Qi's eyes lit up; there were actually special versions.

And the price was even more expensive than Ninth-Stage special battle armor.

Especially the Black Gold Dragon Spear, which Lin Qi felt was tailor-made for him.

This was forged from the dragon horn of the Level Ten Disaster Beast, the Disaster Tianzai Yanlong.

The Disaster Tianzai Yanlong was no ordinary beast; it took ten Ninth Realm martial artists and the Red Emperor himself to hunt it.

The Red Emperor was a special physique, an existence at the peak of the Ninth Realm.

He hadn't even reached the peak of the Eighth Realm yet, and he could already hunt Level Nine Disaster Beasts.

He could imagine that when he reached the peak of the Eighth Realm and possessed a Ninth-Stage weapon, hunting Level Nine Disaster Beasts would only be easier.

The Red Emperor was the same.

According to the Shanhe Wang, the Disaster Tianzai Yanlong was also a top-tier existence among Level Ten Disaster Beasts.

Weapons made from its dragon horn had unimaginable power.

"Unfortunately, I can't afford it at all right now!"

Lin Qi shook his head; geniuses now could only watch, and he would have to wait until he accumulated more merit points to afford it.

He added the ordinary Ninth-Stage great spear to his shopping cart and checked out together.

【Beep!】

【Fingerprint verification successful, you have paid 27 million merit points!】

……

After paying 27 million merit points, Lin Qi currently only had 5 million merit points left in his account.

He didn't have time to feel the pain before entering the backend to chat with the staff, directly providing his requirements.

Now that he had awakened three types of abilities, his requirements for the battle armor and long spear were more detailed.

A moment later, Lin Qi put down his phone and chose expedited service; it would take at least a week to finish production.

So he chose to take the battle armor and long spear for repairs; the repairs were fast, one day was enough.

Lin Qi also sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.

Today's battle had benefited him greatly, and now he had proven that he possessed the strength to hunt Level Nine Disaster Beasts.

From now on, as long as he frequently fought with Level Nine Disaster Beasts, the speed of his martial arts improvement wouldn't be slow.

One month was enough for his strength to improve significantly.
