Chapter 1450: Exclusive Reward

Boom!

Splintered wood flew as a figure in tattered robes slammed into several large trees, green leaves scattering; the figure was pressed beneath a mass of branches.

A pale arm emerged from within the branches, Shen Na, her body crisscrossed with several slash wounds, crawled out.

"Cough cough cough..."

Shen Na bent over, emitting a fit of dry coughs, blood seeping from between her fingers, and she no longer bore her former composure.

"Well..."

As Shen Na's hand lifted, a figure appeared behind her; simultaneously, a dull ache struck her lower abdomen and her right arm went numb.

In the next instant, Su Xiao appeared before Shen Na, his longsword slashing toward her throat.

Shen Na's right arm was severed, yet this did not hinder her ability; she was about to freeze the area ahead when Su Xiao suddenly vanished.

With a bang, Su Xiao delivered a side kick to Shen Na's coccyx.

The coccyx struck hard, Shen Na instinctively arched her body while simultaneously sealing the area behind her.

Golden energy meridians flickered faintly; what Shen Na employed was not the prime mover, but rather the manifestation of a soul energy—any enemy touching this soul energy would be frozen within a short time, requiring no judgment, merely a light touch leaving them at Shen Na's mercy.

Yet Shen Na could not touch Su Xiao at all, nor did she know where he would appear next.

Upon activating Hunter's Moment, Su Xiao became entirely Shen Na's bane; in their initial clash, he had been frozen by that soul energy, and had he not used Dragon Shadow Flash to create distance, he would surely have met a bad end.

Without doubt, Shen Na is the strongest contractor of the Holy Domain Paradise, her survival to this point already attesting to her strength.

However, Su Xiao did not linger excessively with Shen Na; upon sensing her ability was nearly unsolvable, he immediately activated Hunter's Moment, which was precisely prepared for such situations.

Shen Na not only counters Su Xiao, she counters all melee-type contractors, provided she can track the enemy's movement trajectory.

A side kick struck Shen Na's lower abdomen; in the next moment, vast soul energy erupted around her.

Pfft, pfft, pfft...

Several bursts of blood exploded from Shen Na's back; Su Xiao, his entire body wrapped in blue light, vanished, and in an instant, more blood blossoms erupted at Shen Na's chest.

Pfft, pfft...

The distinctive gunshot of d·assassination ceased; Su Xiao, having emptied a magazine, immediately replaced it with a fresh one.

After taking over a dozen shots, Shen Na lay motionless on the ground; in the next instant, Su Xiao's pupils rapidly constricted as he continuously used Dragon Shadow Flash to create distance from Shen Na.

With a hum, a terrifying wave spread outward; Su Xiao's vision blurred, and he nearly collapsed to the ground.

At this moment, looking at Shen Na, she had already vanished, and everything within a 30-meter radius had turned to dust.

From the moment Su Xiao first saw Shen Na, he sensed her resolve to die, which is why he had remained vigilant toward her.

The burst of soul energy just now was Shen Na's final brilliance.

After the soul energy swept for two minutes, several figures arrived nearby.

"Where is that woman?"

"Dead; I just suddenly sensed her disappearance and thought she had used spatial ability, but judging from the energy drifting around, she seems to have self-destructed."

Several lone wolves of the Reincarnation Paradise emerged from the forest, each bearing wounds.

"So it was finding people to die together, tch, I've been chasing them for two days."

Upon seeing Su Xiao, these lone wolves turned and left; they did not wish to fight him, as the outcome would be indeterminate.

Watching the few disappear into the jungle, Su Xiao understood the situation; he had previously been able to capture that old man precisely because the old man had been shielding Shen Na's retreat.

If Shen Na had respected the old man's sacrifice, she would not have attempted to retaliate against Su Xiao now, but would have continued living, awaiting opportunity—the correct choice.

Unfortunately, Shen Na had no recourse; those mad lone wolves had been relentlessly hunting her, and without obtaining the world coordinates she would die, while continued delay would also mean death, so she locked onto the lingering soul aura of the old man after his death, which led her to track him here.

The battle between Su Xiao and Shen Na was entirely a misfortune; Shen Na sought only someone to die with her, but once combat began she realized it was fundamentally impossible.

Su Xiao could win so easily only because he did not stint on using Hunter's Moment; according to his judgment, barring accidents, he would not engage in overly intense combat in the coming days, allowing Hunter's Moment to recharge quickly.

Su Xiao picked up a scarlet treasure chest from the ground—this was entirely an unexpected gain, being forced to take the treasure chest...

Time flew swiftly; Su Xiao had consistently brought Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Bubu Wang and Am through the rainforest in search of polar creatures, though he found no leader-class polar beings, he encountered many ordinary ones.

In the end, Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Bubu Wang had eaten ordinary polar creature flesh to no effect; at this point, Su Xiao took out the flesh of the Yellow Springs Mire Crocodile, and Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Bubu Wang, enduring the bloody taste, ate it raw—this yielded the best results.

……

After hunting for eight days in the Tropical Rainforest, Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Bubu Wang had undergone a complete transformation—at the very least, he no longer faced the risk of being instantly killed by a strong enemy. Previously, Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Bubu Wang had been recklessly probing the edge of life and death, living wildly.

After eight days of hunting, as long as Su Xiao, Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Bubu Wang, and Amu ventured deep into the rainforest, whether it was polar creatures or ordinary animals, they would flee as far as possible.

And at dawn that day, an announcement appeared.
