“Roar!!!”
The Silver Shadow Leopard let out a deafening roar.
The silver light dissipated, and the figure of the Silver Shadow Leopard was revealed again. Not only was it several times larger than before, but its cold eyes and explosive muscles revealed the ferocity of a top predator!
“This is…”
Wang Xiao muttered in shock. He suddenly thought of something and hurriedly looked at Tang Longji. “Uncle Tang! [Identification Scroll]!”
Actually, even without Wang Xiao’s reminder, Tang Longji had already taken out the [Identification Scroll]. Without a word, he tore it open at the [Silver Shadow Leopard]. [Silver Shadow Leopard]
[Platinum Level 2]
[Wind]
[A mutated beast that lives in the mountains and is extremely fast. Legend has it that it can walk on the wind. Don’t underestimate it just because it’s small. Be careful that it will tear your throat apart in the blink of an eye.]
[Skills: Floating Light Shadow, Wind Splitting Claw, Silver Flash]
Looking at the words “platinum level two”, Wang Xiao and Tang Longji looked at each other speechlessly.
One of them was a [Beast Tamer Lord], and the other was an experienced level five lord. They did not expect that they would one day be fooled by a mutated beast!
After a short silence, Tang Longji suddenly thought of something and revealed a look of epiphany. “No wonder it instantly killed Li Tongfu. It turns out that its true level is platinum!”
At the mention of Li Tongfu, Wang Xiao finally remembered the serious matter. His expression changed and he shouted anxiously, “Li Tongfu was killed by Wu Yan! The last team was also killed by him! He’s the survivor of the last exploration team!”
“What?!”
Tang Longji was shocked when he heard this. He turned around and wanted to chase after Wu Yan, but he suddenly thought of something and stopped. “But he has already run far away. Moreover, we only have ten minutes to explore the secret realm.”
“Then kill him in ten minutes!”
Wang Xiao gritted his teeth and replied angrily. As he spoke, he looked at the Silver Shadow Leopard that had already shown its true self.
His body had already reached its limit and he could not summon soldiers to fight. That was why Wang Xiao was helpless against Wu Yan.
However, now that he had the level two platinum [Silver Shadow Leopard] and Tang Longji, who was also a level five lord, he might still have a chance to defeat Wu Yan!
With Tang Longji’s help, Wang Xiao climbed onto the back of the [Silver Shadow Leopard] and took out two recovery potions to drink. Although it would take some time for the potions to take effect, the two of them still immediately set off without stopping.
Wu Yan was no longer in the long and narrow basin. The two of them followed the passageway dug by the [Giant Pitcher] and returned to the canyon, only to discover that the place had already burned into a sea of fire outside.
The fire was not big, but it was obvious that someone had done it on purpose.
“It’s wu Yan.”
Tang Longji thought for a moment and said, “His [Flame Skeleton Warhorse] will leave traces when it runs. He probably set fire to the entire place because he doesn’t want us to catch up.”
Wang Xiao nodded. “However, this means that he’s not confident in defeating us, so he used this method to stall for time.
“That’s right!”
Tang Longji agreed with Wang Xiao’s speculation, but he revealed a difficult expression. “However, his method is indeed useful. I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for us to even find him in ten minutes.”
Wang Xiao frowned and thought for a moment. He patted the Silver Shadow Leopard’s furry head. “Can you find that fire mage?”
“Wuwu..
The [Silver Shadow Leopard] snorted softly. Then, it raised its head and sniffed the air before suddenly leaping in a certain direction.
Tang Longji was stunned for a moment before hurriedly following. Soon, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] stopped in front of a crack.
Seeing the crack, Tang Longji’s expression turned ugly again. “I’ve just entered this crack! There are many forks in it. If Wu Yan is determined to hide, it’s very difficult for us to find him.”
“How hard can it be?”
Wang Xiao smiled disapprovingly. “Don’t forget that we have a helper!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] crawled into the crack without hesitation. Indeed, as Tang Longji had said, the crack extended in all directions. In less than a minute, Wang Xiao was already completely dizzy.
Fortunately, the sense of smell of the [Silver Shadow Leopard] was extremely sharp. It carried Wang Xiao and ran through the cracks.
Not long after, the Silver Shadow Leopard found the exit. Just as it rushed out and before Wang Xiao could see its surroundings clearly, a fireball suddenly blasted towards him!
Seeing the fireball, Wang Xiao immediately realized that they had found the right person. Then, the Silver Shadow Leopard let out a low roar and instantly activated [Silver Flash]!
Wang Xiao only felt his vision blur. When he could see clearly again, he was a hundred meters away. He waited for another second before the fireball landed in his previous position. It could be seen how terrifying the speed of the Silver Shadow Leopard was.
At the same time, Wang Xiao also noticed that although the fireball was ferocious, its power was not great. When it landed and exploded, it only ignited a sea of flames and did not explode the rock wall like before.
This meant that Wu Yan was already at the end of his rope.
Without any time to think, Wang Xiao hurriedly began to search for Wu Yan. In the end, when he turned around, he realized that the other party was riding the [Flame Skeleton War Horse] and staring coldly at him from a slope.
At this moment, Wu Yan also saw Wang Xiao and said coldly with a dark expression, “You’re really persistent. Even the Silver Shadow Leopard… No! It’s not your contract beast. Why would it listen to you?”
“Maybe it’s because of my charisma?”
Wang Xiao sneered and tried his best to straighten his body on the back of the Silver Shadow Leopard. “I told you, don’t even think about leaving alive today!”
“Shameless boasting!”
Wu Yan sneered and the magic staff in his hand flickered again. “Do you really think you can kill me, when you’re a mere level three lord?!”
“If he can’t do it, there’s me!”
With a furious roar, the crack at the exit exploded with a bang. The [Giant Pitcher] rushed in aggressively. Tang Longji stood on his shoulder and emitted the powerful aura of a level five lord without hiding it!
Seeing Tang Longji, Wu Yan’s expression also became a little ugly.
The position that the Lord’s Shop had given Tang Longji in this team was to be in charge of the main battle. It could be seen that this person’s ability was good at combat.
Moreover, Wu Yan was already seriously injured, but Tang Longji basically didn’t consume any energy.
Even in a one on one battle between the two of them, Wu Yan’s chances of winning were already ridiculously low, let alone Wang Xiao and the [Silver Shadow Leopard] watching covetously from the side.
The scales of victory had already begun to tilt. Wu Yan let out a long sigh and looked at Wang Xiao and Tang Longji with a helpless smile. “I really didn’t expect to be forced to this step by you…”
Before he could finish speaking, a white light flashed in Wu Yan’s palm, and a potion emitting a purple light appeared in his hand.
This was the first time Wang Xiao had seen such a potion. From its light, it was not difficult to tell that it was a product of the Purple Star. Although he did not know what effect it had, he could sense the abundant and strange energy aura even from dozens of meters away!
Immediately after, Wu Yan pressed something and a needle popped out from the bottom of the potion with a whoosh.. Then, it pierced into his heart without hesitation!
