Otherwise, disaster would inevitably strike sooner or later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing dove into a cave, then spent an hour racing around on his Flying Sword with her in an utterly unfamiliar environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Qiong could just about accept that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, she struggled with what was happening before her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The roar that echoed in her ears once they’d sat on the throne, whether it was a recording or not, was clearly a warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warning not to disrespect the throne of the Sacred Tribe, and yet he was planning to blow the throne straight up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if there was a red button before your eyes with instructions not to press it, and you insisted on pressing it regardless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trampling all over the line!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of behaviour was colloquially known as courting death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Li Jing open his mouth in silence, Xu Qiong decided to step back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was a smart woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew that even if she spoke up, some people would not back down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People like Li Jing, who hadn’t suffered a loss, were beyond persuasion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And she had to admit, some people had the capability to be bull-headed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was Li Jing bull-headed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had considered that he might possibly blow up something strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And precisely because he had considered it, he wanted to blow it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Xu Qiong step back, Li Jing waved his hand and put away the Flying Sword Blue Edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power displayed by the sword just now was not the full might of the Flying Sword Blue Edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if it couldn’t cut the throne, there was no need to keep trying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he damaged the Flying Sword Blue Edge, that would be a loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the hardness of the throne, it wouldn’t be worthwhile if it was damaged in the process of cutting it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t it be more worthwhile to take it back whole?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stepping back, Li Jing raised his hand and launched a palm strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boom!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark red Fighting Thunder exploded from his palm, striking the smaller throne’s back at a 45-degree angle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire palace shuddered along with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The throne was not damaged in the slightest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Qiong’s brows furrowed slightly as she saw Li Jing release the dark red Fighting Thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fighting Thunder!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A special type of thunder among the Five Thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fighting Thunder did not carry any attributes, not even the effect of a thunder strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the strict sense, it couldn’t really be called thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was the strongest and most domineering of the Five Thunder, possessing the purest destructive power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having seen Li Jing use Fire Thunder, Xu Qiong wasn’t surprised to see him using Fighting Thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But truth be told, she didn’t understand how he was doing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Li Jing manage to control a special kind of thunder, which would normally require a Four Realm spell formula to create, using the Palm Thunder spell formula.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving Xu Qiong aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing’s blow did not shake the throne, he looked at the location where the bottom of the throne connected with the ground through his Heavenly Eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under his Heavenly Eye Technique, he saw an invisible crack that had not been there previously, and a subtle force was hidden inside it, keeping the throne in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having confirmed this, Li Jing stepped backward and pushed forward with both hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Qiong slowly typed a question mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was Li Jing up to?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she was about to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boom Boom Boom!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of thunder roared and exploded one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Xu Qiong’s stunned gaze, one wave of Fighting Thunder after another erupted from Li Jing’s palms, forming a line and forming a sword-like force against the back of the thrones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if he was striking rather than leaning against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground of the palace shook violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground at the base of the two thrones gradually tore apart, and the subtle force that had been keeping the throne in place was successively scattered by the continuous impacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boom, Boom.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With two dull thuds, the two thrones, one large and one small, both toppled over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the thrones toppled over, Li Jing’s Fighting Thunder sword light penetrated the palace behind him, punching two holes in it before dissipating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Qiong’s face was stupefied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the hell was that just now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High-frequency Palm Thunder firing consecutively into two Thunder swords?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the hell kind of move was that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this hit me in the chest, wouldn’t it be like having a high-frequency jackhammer ramming into me until my skin splits, flesh bursts, and existence fades?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at him with a mix of fear and amazement, unconsciously clasping her chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she understood about Li Jing, the more unpredictable he became!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only could he cast Fire Thunder and Fighting Thunder with Palm Thunder, but he could also do it with high frequency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let alone the skill involved, wasn’t he worried about depleting his Spiritual Qi?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Li Jing successfully toppled two Thrones, feeling exhilarated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using the Fighting Thunder version of the Thunder Light Sword consumed much more energy than the standard version.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, for him who had activated his Second Origin, this was a trifle. Having a lot of Spiritual Power was indeed capricious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that the Thrones had collapsed, Li Jing approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t just stand there, come over and collect the loot. I’ll take the bigger one, and you take the smaller one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, she snapped back to reality with surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I get a share too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’re exploring together, so of course, it’s a split.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing said, then turned his head and continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you’re not interested, I can take both.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She fell silent, moved forward without uttering a word, and collected the smaller Throne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the initial two Fighting Thunders, the two Thrones had been simultaneously hit by at least hundreds of Fighting Thunders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, not even a single scratch was left on the Thrones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its quality was more than just the Treasure-level 10 Li Jing had mentioned before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who wouldn’t want such a good thing? Only a fool would decline!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Li Jing made the offer, how could she refuse?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After collecting the Throne, remined him not to forget.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once we return to the camp, we should have the people from the Research Institute take a look at these. Maybe they can gather some information from them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing obtained the larger Throne in response to her statement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was thinking of something to say, an enraged roar suddenly rang through the palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impudence! Who dares to desecrate our Sacred Tribe’s Throne?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Again, with the recorded message.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time it echoed loudly, from far to near, deafening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face changed slightly, and she quickly warned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Something’s coming! Fast! From the south!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing’s eyes sparkled at her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The peculiar thing was finally showing up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll go check it out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving a message behind, Li Jing stomped heavily on the ground, shooting out like a cannonball, and smashed through the southern wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was about to get into a defensive position when she saw this, and was bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did he just crash out?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Logically speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the enemy attacks first, shouldn’t you prioritize defense?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What does it mean by barging through the wall?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a cultivator, should he be this headstrong?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the palace, she was dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing, who had smashed through the south wall and activated his Vanishing skill at full power, clashed head-on with a rapidly approaching Health Bar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within a blink, they were about to collide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing acted decisively, reaching out his hand for a slap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boom!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Fighting Thunder as thick as a water barrel spat out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent clearly didn’t expect Li Jing to come out directly. When it hit the Fighting Thunder, it was blasted and flung backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing took advantage of the opportunity, summoned the Flying Sword Blue Edge without hesitation, and pursued in the form of sword light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t seen clearly just how much the Health Bar was or what was coming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since it didn’t die from his slap, it should at least be of the Fourth Boundary. He just needed to attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword light flew, and Li Jing caught up with the \"Unknown Entity\" that had been flung back in an instant, slashing out with his sword without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Puff!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ink green liquid splattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Experience +5899.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A notification sound rang in his ears, making Li Jing momentarily distracted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That one had died with just a single strike of his sword, which was unexpected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>experience points indicated that the opponent was in the late stage of the Four Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A late stage Four Realm cultivator, was this easy to defeat?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His sword hung in the air as Li Jing frowned let his gaze drift upwards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A green humanoid thing, propelled by inertia, flew out quite a distance before plopping onto the ground, split in two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Su Qiong flew out from the palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a distance, she saw a strange corpse hitting the ground, leaving her slightly taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s dead?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t even get a chance to look at it properly before it was killed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a curious expression, she flew over next to Li Jing. Su Qiong asked quietly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What... what monster was that just now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn’t get a clear look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing shrugged, answering,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was in the late stage of the Four Realm, but kind of weak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Qiong was silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Late stage Four Realm and \"a bit weak\"!?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that was the case, then what was she, a mere beginner of the Four Realm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wordlessly, Su Qiong glanced at Li Jing questioningly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was Li Jing’s cultivation level?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just slashed and killed a late-stage Four Realm being with a single strike. Could it be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could he possibly be at the Fifth Boundary?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A master of profound skill, serving as a small patrol officer at the Jianghai City North City Branch?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she was wondering about this, Li Jing flew off toward the front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, let’s go see what that thing looks like.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait for me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Qiong hurriedly followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, they both reached the spot where the body had fallen and saw what it looked like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Li Jing had killed was a green-skinned humanoid monster that resembled a lizard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lizard monster was very tall, about two and a half meters in height.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its body was covered in scale-like armor, and it wore a robe with strange patterns. There was also a thick tail behind its waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon examining the full appearance of the creature, Li Jing asked,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have you seen this kind of monster before?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Qiong shook her head and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If nothing unexpected has happened, then this should be the individual of the unknown intelligence civilization we’re looking for\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Most likely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing responded and continued,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stash the body and take it back to the Research Institute.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Qiong waved her hand and stored the body in her storage space, then said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just got a message from the ground.

A considerable number have also been discovered in the west, although many of them are abandoned ’greenhouses’.

It looks like they are too frightened, no one’s coming to die.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Xiu Qiong’s slightly inflated words, Li Jing couldn’t help but chuckle and glanced at the more profound part of the southern cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the current situation, the throne holds special significance for the sacred tribe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some individuals can resonate with the throne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But these individuals are no experts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one he just killed at the later stages of the Four Realm was probably the extent of their power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a late-stage Four Realm being killed, the others no longer dare to show their faces rashly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s intriguing is...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Saint tribe that resonates with the throne seems to lack the ability to control the Parasite Insects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the late-stage Four Realm being coming to die and this clone-like repeater who poses no threat, a large swarm of Parasite Insects trapping them would be the real threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Going back to the beginning...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s peculiar that the throne, of special significance to the Saint tribe, is abandoned and left to gather dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it indeed is special, there’s no reason to leave it carelessly around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A minimalist makeover for the palace at the least?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The throne was left in an abandoned palace possibly for a special reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recalling the news that Xiu Qiong had relayed from above ground, Li Jing began to speculate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The unknown intelligent civilization might be experiencing internal divisions, with different powers contending in different territories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could this Sacred Tribe be one of the factions that dominate the south, a weaker force among the groups?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this was the case, the throne might be a boundary marker set by the various forces, and cannot be moved casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After quickly organising his thoughts, Li Jing said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can’t stay here for long. No one from the Saint tribe came over, but it’s not necessarily because they aren’t preparing something. Let’s retreat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he withdrew both thrones with a wave of his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The throne will stay with me for now, I’ll lead the way. We won’t explore other places, and will head back to the camp directly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiu Qiong immediately agreed and moved to Li Jing’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she didn’t know what considerations led to his decision, he was acting cautiously for a change, and of course, she had no objections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it came to survival instincts, Xiu Qiong wasn’t inferior to anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Xiu Qiong moving closer, Li Jing wasted no time, pulled her onto his Flying Sword and soared into the air. They turned into a sword light and dive directly towards their return path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>",3097,"2026-06-06T07:41:35.216Z",1,"novelbin.me","9e67bac2df57adf4c776be84230b5d734ea025d11bbd6e93241326a00825eceb","why-do-all-these-monsters-have-health-bars-chapter-155","why-do-all-these-monsters-have-health-bars-chapter-153",719,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwhy-do-all-these-monsters-have-health-bars-cover.jpg"]
