Chapter 42 – Promoted to Level 7
As soon as Qin Feng exited the Chat Channel, he began to take action. He hurried towards the edge of the Bone Burial Wilderness. There was a vast green grassland there, which should make it easier to find Ferocious Beasts. Leveling up by defeating ferocious beasts primarily depended on finding Ferocious Beasts. If you couldn’t find them, everything else was meaningless.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
There were rapid sonic booms across the wilderness. With the assistance of the Shadow Boots, Qin Feng was extremely fast, and he encountered no obstacles along the way. Soon, he passed by a small mound. Just as he was flying over the mound, he felt something unusual.
“Hmm, what’s this?”
His enhanced intuition talent provided him with superhuman instincts. At that moment, he became incredibly alert, causing him to instinctively look down. Just then, a sudden change occurred.
Boom!
The mound suddenly exploded, and a massive black scorpion tail shot out from underground like a long spear, directly aiming for his chest.
Oh crap!
It was an ambush!
Everything happened too quickly, catching Qin Feng somewhat off guard.
Apparently, this Ferocious Beast had been hiding underground. The thick layer of soil had completely concealed its presence, hiding both its aura and form from Qin Feng. This rendered his visual and olfactory talents useless.
Crackle!
In the blink of an eye, the scorpion tail had arrived right in front of Qin Feng, producing an ear-piercing sonic boom. The crimson stinger was curved like a hook, shimmering with an eerie cold light. This thing was highly venomous!
At that critical moment, Qin Feng used his longsword to block.
Clang!
The scorpion tail was as hard as steel! Qin Feng’s strike deflected the attack of the scorpion tail …
Bang! Bang!
However, immediately afterward, the ground continuously exploded! Two massive scorpion pincers burst out of the ground, both simultaneously aiming for Qin Feng. One pincer aimed for his legs, and the other went for his waist …
“Courting death!”
Qin Feng stepped aside, avoiding one of the scorpion pincers, while simultaneously striking at the other with his longsword …
Crack!
A crisp sound echoed! His strike severed the scorpion pincer! Greenish fluid sprayed out from the severed end …
Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!
Accompanied by painful cries, the ground erupted, and a ten-meter-long giant scorpion burst out of the earth, raising a cloud of dust.
“What a massive scorpion!”
Qin Feng couldn’t help but take a closer look.
[Ferocious beast]: Blind Earth Scorpion
[Level]: 12
[Combat Power Evaluation]: 15 Star
[Traits]: Highly venomous, blind eyes, extraordinary hearing.
[Talents]: Enhanced Hearing (E-rank), Earth Element Sensing (F-rank)
[Skills]: Conceal Breath Technique (Conceals its own aura)
[Drop Rate]: 1.2%
Holy crap!
This was a Level 12 Ferocious Beast!
There are Level 12 Ferocious Beasts in the Level 10 territory?
Qin Feng was astonished.
Whoosh!
Just then, the giant scorpion charged angrily.
Although it was blind, it had extraordinary hearing. It instantly pinpointed Qin Feng’s location and charged straight at him. In the blink of an eye, it reached him, and its enormous pincer struck towards Qin Feng’s chest.
Qin Feng quickly dodged.
Boom!
The pincer missed its target, crashed directly into the ground, and kicked up a cloud of dust.
Swish!
Right at that moment, a cold light flashed amidst the dust.
Crack!
A crisp sound echoed!
Qin Feng’s sword struck the giant scorpion’s head, splitting it in half and splattering a grayish-brown liquid …
Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!
The giant scorpion struggled in pain for a few moments, then slumped to the ground, its enormous tail drooping weakly …
Following that, a white light rose from the scorpion’s corpse and flowed into Qin Feng’s body …
[Killed Level 12 Blind Earth Scorpion successfully! Earned 620 points!]
[Your Level has advanced to 7!]
[Your Strength index increased by 10 points!]
[Your Agility index increased by 10 points!]
[Your Constitution index increased by 10 points!]
[Your Energy index increased by 10 points!]
[You’ve gained 5 free attribute points!]
Leveled up!
Finally reached Level 7!
Qin Feng was ecstatic.
On second thought, how could there be Level 12 Ferocious Beasts in this Level 10 territory? Could it be that this is the final map of the newbie village, and that’s why there are Ferocious Beasts higher than Level 10? If that’s the case, the danger here would exceed my expectations.
No time to think about that now; leveling up quickly was the key. He mustn’t let that Amir guy win. Immediately, Qin Feng rushed forward and harvested the scorpion corpse …
[Infinite Extraction successful! You have acquired the E-rank talent – Enhanced Hearing!]
[Enhanced Hearing: Hearing intensified twentyfold.]
Great! Another new talent!
Moreover, it was the hearing talent he had been longing for!
Visual, olfactory, and auditory senses were the three major tools for searching for Ferocious Beasts. With all three senses enhanced, searching for Ferocious Beasts would become much easier. The coming hunting would definitely be enjoyable!
After the joy, Qin Feng set off immediately. He was the one carrying the destiny of the entire newbie village’s victory or defeat, and he didn’t want to waste time casually.
More importantly, this victory or defeat also represented the face of the Dragon Nation.
All the countries in the regional channel were waiting to see the Dragon Nation humiliated. This time, he wanted to respond with a resounding ear slap!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Qin Feng continued on his way.
“Huh? What’s this?”
After just ten minutes of travel, he noticed something unusual. Without hesitation, he rushed into a depression, inserted his sword into the ground without a second thought …
Splat!
The 1.5-meter-long blade plunged all the way in. Under the ground, there was a sound resembling cutting meat.
Whoosh!
Afterward, he withdrew the longsword and hastily retreated. A green liquid sprayed out like a fountain.
Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!
Boom!
Accompanied by a series of miserable roars, a giant pink worm emerged from the ground … Qin Feng was prepared and immediately cut it into two with his sword.
[Killed Level 10 Earth Sandworm successfully! Earned 460 points!]
Having auditory talent was such a delight! Even the Ferocious Beasts hidden underground couldn’t escape his detection. Qin Feng was delighted and quickly approached to harvest from the corpse, gaining another 2 points of energy attribute.
Then, he continued on his way … Along this path, with his auditory, visual, and olfactory talents all active, he almost adopted a carpet-like search … Not long after, he found another Level 10 Ferocious Beast hidden underground: the Cavernous Spider.
This discovery brought him great joy. Originally, he thought there weren’t many Ferocious Beasts in the Bone Burial Wilderness because at first glance, it seemed barren, with no grass even half a meter high.
If there were Ferocious Beasts, he should be able to see them at a glance. Now he realized that there were quite a few Ferocious Beasts in the Bone Burial Wilderness, all concealed underground …
The acquisition of the auditory talent was proving to be immensely helpful to him!
And so, Qin Feng continued his search.
Unbeknownst to him, two hours had passed. He had killed a total of 11 Ferocious Beasts during this time, earning himself an auditory talent and 20 attribute points. The harvest was incredibly bountiful!
[Reminder: Liu Xuan exchanged 2 Level 5 Ferocious Beast corpses for your grade 1 steel knife.]
Oh, benefits were coming in!
Liu Xuan and the others were quite helpful!
Qin Feng immediately entered the trade channel.
After a moment, flashes of white light appeared.
Before him were two more Level 5 Ferocious Beast corpses. He approached and harvested them, gaining 4 more attribute points.
Another nice harvest!
Looking at the situation, it wouldn’t be long before he collected a full quota of Level 5 Ferocious Beast corpses.
All of this was happening without him having to personally engage in combat, saving him a significant amount of time.
Thinking of this, he checked his own levelling progress: Level 7 (4980/18000) …
The progress was good; he had already exceeded a quarter of the way.
Two hours had passed.
How was Amir’s progress coming along?
Thinking of this, Qin Feng quickly entered the Chat Channel …
