Chapter 283 - Savage Gigantic Worm (1/2)

Zhang Che’s spirits immediately rose upon thinking of that possibility.

As of now, he could only control the red sword to attack within a dozen meters or so. If the red sword was any further than that from him, there was a possibility of their mysterious spiritual link being interrupted. This greatly affected the sword’s effectiveness.

After a bunch of experiments, Zhang Che found out that the sword’s killing potential was not inferior to the Scarlet Meteorite Huge Sword at all. The only lacking part was having no skill attack.

Since this thing was obviously not a beast card equipment, the two were evidently two different types of objects.

However, if Zhang Che’s guess was right, and the mysterious energy he obtained from killing those strange creatures was the key to controlling the swords, then he might really be able to kill someone from a thousand miles away in the future!

With that, so what if it’s attacking power was slightly inferior? It would totally be as dangerous as a nuclear weapon! With such an unpredictable attack, did he still need to be afraid of any powerful foes?

To achieve this goal, Zhang Che neglected his meals and sleep, and had the Purple Jade Condor find every strange creature it could, then directed the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon and the Scarlet Flame Drake to go kill them, gaining every bit of mysterious energy he could!

———

Time flew by just like that.

Before Zhang Che realized it, he had slaughtered his way into the extreme depths of this mountain range. The pale grey mountains around him grew steeper and steeper, and the vegetation grew increasingly sparse.

During this time, the Purple Jade Condor was ambushed by flying creatures on multiple occasions. However, it was exceptionally observant and managed to discover the ambushers from extremely far away more often than not. Zhang Che went along with it, drawing all those flying creatures to him and turned them into target practice for the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon and the Scarlet Flame Drake, earning himself a large amount of mysterious energy.

Gradually, Zhang Che became able to control the red sword to attack up to thirty-something meters away, more than twice the range of before!

“If I continue hunting like this, a day will come where I can control the sword to attack my enemies from dozens, or even a hundred miles away!”

Killing someone from a thousand miles away was, after all, just a fantasy. Zhang Che didn’t know if he could ever achieve that in his life.

However, tens or even a hundred kilometers was still worth looking forward to!

The prerequisite was for him to be able to stay long enough in the secret plane to kill enough strange creatures to reach that level!

However, from what he learned from Huang Juyun, in the past secret planes’ appearances, it seemed the longest they allowed people to remain in there was half a year before collapsing, forcibly ejecting all the beastmasters.

“Hopefully the secret plane this time will last half a year, at least!”

As Zhang Che was thinking, he was riding on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, flying towards a mountain peak ahead at the Purple Jade Condor’s directions.

On that mountain summit, the Purple Jade Condor had discovered a large number of strange creatures. The sheer numbers they had could only be described as thickly dotted.

This made Zhang Che anticipate what was coming next, unable to keep himself calm.

Just as the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon flew over that mountain summit, the pale grey earth under him suddenly stirred, scattering about, and a bunch of basket-sized holes appeared.

A bunch of pale grey worms covered in dense, tiny spikes over them quickly slid out of the earth. Their bodies arched and they sprang off the ground, pouncing towards the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon!
