Chapter 198: Growth-Type Spirit Artifact: Dawn Dragon Roar Spear
Bang!
Riddled with wounds, the Invisible Wolf King, its flesh a blur, collapsed to the ground.
Unwilling, it swallowed its last breath.
As a Six-Star demon beast, the Invisible Wolf King never even dreamed.
It would actually die at the hands of a Four-Star demon beast.
Gu Chen's flying sword was sharp, and its sword intent was quite formidable.
But after all, its cultivation is too low; against a Five-Star demon beast it might only cause lethal injuries.
However, against the Six-Star Invisible Wolf King, the injuries were not fatal.
On the contrary, it was Little Wolf, who had experienced several Ten Realms.
Given that its cultivation exceeds Gu Chen's, the Water Moon Abyss and Water Moon Blade are sufficient to pose a lethal threat to the Invisible Wolf King.
Looking at the Invisible Wolf King's corpse, its flesh blurred and already hard to distinguish.
The Phantom Night Snow Fox King that followed let out a long howl.
Gu Han couldn't understand the Snow Fox King's cry.
But surely the Snow Fox King was mourning the Phantom Night Snow Foxes that had once died at the hands of the Invisible Wolf King's clan.
Gu Han, without courtesy, stepped forward and touched the Invisible Wolf King's corpse.
Besides absorbing ice elemental power and a large amount of demon beast Qi Blood,
it also gave Gu Han his first Fourth-Stage Treasure Box!
What surprised Gu Han was that dissecting the Invisible Wolf King's body also yielded a Six-Star demon beast inner core!
Not all high-level demon beasts can drop a demon beast inner core.
Even for a Six-Star demon beast, whether an inner core appears depends on luck.
At least so far, humanity has not yet summarized the specific pattern of demon beast inner core drop rates.
Little Wolf eagerly stepped forward on its short legs, wanting to swallow the Invisible Wolf King's inner core.
But Gu Han flicked its forehead, annoyed.
"You fellow, don't be so hasty!"
Little Wolf looked pitifully at Gu Han, lips pursed in resentment.
Gu Han looked to the side, where the Phantom Night Snow Fox King bore a human-like sympathetic expression.
Without the Snow Fox King, they could not have killed the Invisible Wolf King.
In this battle both sides contributed; he could not simply take everything for himself.
"This demon beast inner core..."
Before Gu Han's words even finished, the Phantom Night Snow Fox King changed its previous disdainful attitude toward him.
It bowed its body respectfully toward Gu Han.
"Wuu wuu."
This time what the Snow Fox King said was not the fox clan's language.
But the common language of the demon beast clan.
Little Wolf eagerly began acting as the translator.
Gu Han immediately understood: this was the Snow Fox King thanking them for their help.
Willing to take nothing, it attributed all the spoils of this battle to Gu Han's side.
Gu Han was not one to stand on ceremony; he immediately helped the Snow Fox King to its feet.
"No need for such courtesy; with the little fox here, we can now consider ourselves one of our own."
"No, for you guys it should be 'our fox'."
A human-like smile appeared on the Snow Fox King's face.
Feeling ashamed for having previously looked down on Gu Han and even been somewhat hostile.
At its level, although it still cannot speak human words.
but it already possesses the most basic wisdom and emotions.
The Snow Fox King returned to slaughter the last of the Invisible Wolves.
And Gu Han merely had a thought.
A golden-yellow treasure chest visible only to Gu Han appeared before him.
"Open the treasure chest."
As Gu Han's words fell, the treasure chest clicked open.
Golden light blazed forth!
"Ding, congratulations host, your luck is off the charts; upon first opening a Fourth-Stage Treasure Box you obtain a growth-type spirit artifact: Dawn Dragon Roar Spear!"
A golden long spear, shimmering with a faint golden radiance like the morning sun's light, appeared before Gu Han's eyes.
The spear's body was crystal clear, emitting a faint golden glow.
Just a glance at that holy radiance tells you this spear is anything but ordinary!
If it weren't that only Gu Han can currently see the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear, it would surely draw everyone's attention.
And through the system, Gu Han detected that the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear's grade is Heavenly Middle Tier!
The highest-grade spear Gu Han has ever owned was only Earthly Middle Tier!
This Dawn Dragon Roar Spear is a full major tier higher.
Even if it cannot be further upgraded, for Gu Han it is still a tremendous improvement!
To upgrade the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear's grade, the fastest method is to absorb Dragon Essence Blood!
However, after Gu Han came to this world, let alone seeing a dragon, he hadn't even seen a drake!
Dragon essence blood is undoubtedly a fantasy.
And the next-best method is to devour various rare ores.
The Dawn Dragon Roar Spear can directly devour ores, without Gu Han needing to find a blacksmith, saving him a lot of trouble.
Besides that, the simplest method is slaughter!
The Dawn Dragon Roar Spear can devour those impure souls to strengthen itself.
Almost no one in the world dares say they have never done something shameful in their lifetime.
And the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear can select the impure part of them, devour it, or rather purify it.
"Looking at it this way, the faint golden radiance emanating from the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear's shaft might truly be holy light."
Moreover, the way to enhance the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear coincides with Gu Han's path of absorbing attributes.
This conveniently saved Gu Han the extra time of searching for enhancement methods.
"I'm really curious just how far this Dawn Dragon Roar Spear can ultimately be upgraded."
After the thought settled, Gu Han took all the ores out of his storage space and let the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear devour them on its own.
These ores were the total amount he had looted from the bodies of all the enemies he had killed over the past few months.
They piled up into several small hills!
At this moment, they came in handy!
A faint golden glow rose upon the shaft of the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear.
Meanwhile, the ores piled up beside it decreased rapidly at a visible speed.
In just a dozen breaths, the ores Gu Han had accumulated over several months vanished completely.
Not even a scrap was left for Gu Han!
And the grade of the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear also rose from Heaven-tier middle grade to……
Heaven-tier middle grade?
"Holy shit, System, you fellow, are you trying to screw me over?"
Seeing the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear showing almost no change, Gu Han couldn't help but burst out cursing in his mind!
"Host, don't defame the System."
The System's emotionless voice sounded in Gu Han's ears,
"Please, Host, imagine if this amount of material could elevate the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear from Heaven-tier middle grade to Heaven-tier top grade."
"Then the enemies you've faced before would likely all be at least Earth-grade spiritual artifacts, right?"
Gu Han blinked slightly, feeling that what the System said made some sense.
Although these ores were resources he had accumulated over a long time.
But the gap between Earth-grade and Heaven-grade is just as vast as a heavenly chasm.
The highest-grade weapon held by any enemy he has faced so far should be Jiang Tianyi's.
But Jiang Tianyi's weapon seems to be only Earth-grade supreme.
Even a Martial Venerable lacks a Heaven-grade spiritual artifact, which shows how rare Heaven-grade artifacts are!
However, Gu Han thought again.
"How come the System's words sound a bit yin-yang weird?"
