The battle had raged on, and the Iron-Backed Brown Bear was now utterly exhausted from Han Xing and Coal Ball’s relentless assault.
But it had to be said, its life force was truly formidable. Even now, it clung to its last breath tenaciously.
At this stage, no Survivor could hope to defeat it in a one-on-one fight.
Even if they did, it would likely co at a heavy cost.
Han Xing hadn’t been injured, mainly because Coal Ball had borne the brunt of the battle.
If he had faced it alone, he would likely have been crushed to pulp.
Given the Iron-Backed Brown Bear’s strength, other Level 5 Elite monsters weren’t much different.
"Luckily, it wasn’t Level 6," Han Xing said with a hint of relief.
In , the leap from Level 5 to Level 6 was a significant milestone.
Level 6 monsters were generally far stronger in attributes compared to Level 5 monsters, and ordinary adventurers had no chance to leap levels.
However, when Survivors level up to 6, they receive a considerable boost, not just in attributes but also in equipnt.
Once players reach Level 6, the equipnt crafted according to blueprints sees a significant attribute increase compared to pre-Level 5 equipnt, but there’s also an equipnt level requirent.
Before Level 5, players could wear crafted equipnt however they pleased.
But after Level 6, equipnt has to be worn by another Survivor of Level 6 or higher.
At this mont, the Iron-Backed Brown Bear was at its end and was about to be taken down by Han Xing.
Suddenly, it took a deep breath, raising its paws, with a terrifying power brewing.
Han Xing imdiately sensed its intent to unleash the ’Bear Paw Strike,’ a wide-range skill.
But Han Xing wasn’t going to let it succeed.
Wind Chasing Arrow!
Whoosh!
The arrow flew straight into the bear’s eye socket.
Headshot!
Lethal damage!
The massive body of the Iron-Backed Brown Bear fell slowly.
A system notification chid.
[You have slain Iron-Backed Brown Bear lv5 (Elite Level), gaining 500 Experience Value, and pet ’Coal Ball’ gains 400 Experience Value.]
[Your level has improved, current Level LV5]
[Pet ’Coal Ball’s level has improved, current Level LV4]
"Wow, leveled up again!"
In just one morning, Han Xing leveled up twice; the experience gained here was nearly equal to the sum of the past five or six days!
He glanced at his attributes, Power and agility each increased by 4 points, Spirit and Constitution each increased by 2-3 points, which was quite good.
But when he saw Coal Ball’s attributes, he was sowhat unsettled.
[Pet Information: Void Ghost Wolf (Juvenile)]
[Race: Void Race]
[Level: LV4]
[Power: 15, agility: 25, Spirit: 14, Constitution: 13]
"Wow! The stats increase at one level is comparable to my 3-level increase. This little creature is truly developing towards a boss’s panel, huh?"
Coal Ball looked at him blankly, the victory in battle left this little wolf also very excited, constantly pawing at Han Xing’s Boots.
anwhile, a familiar system notification appeared once more.
[You have slain the elite monster in this area, and you may now explore higher-level regions]
At the sa ti, the number of clouds in the distance suddenly multiplied several tis, and he even saw clouds spanning hundreds or even thousands of square feet appearing.
"Oh? Was this brown bear the strongest monster in this area?"
Han Xing pondered, "It seems I might be the fastest in area 107 to have taken down the area boss, otherwise their points would have skyrocketed long ago."
He then walked over to the gigantic brown bear’s corpse with Coal Ball.
Clicked on decompose, a system prompt appeared.
[Successfully decomposed Iron-Backed Brown Bear carcass, recovered Fine Iron Arrow*45, obtained One-star High-quality Beast Hide*1 (Damaged), obtained Thick Bear at*964kg, obtained Bear Paw*2, obtained Beast Heart*1, obtained Strong Blood*20, obtained Power Crystal*7, obtained Barbarian Bear Power Secret dicine Formula*1]
Hmm?
Han Xing felt a stirring, the items in the front weren’t special, but he noticed the last notification.
"Barbarian Bear Power Secret dicine Formula?"
Thinking about it, Han Xing eagerly looked towards the pile of loot on the ground.
Indeed, beneath the large bear hide, he saw a yellowing paper formula.
After picking it up, a system prompt appeared.
[Would you like to learn the Barbarian Bear Power Secret dicine Formula?]
"Yes."
The next mont, Han Xing saw a second secret dicine formula appear in the formula section.
[Barbarian Bear Power Secret dicine: When consud, grants a powerful Barbarian Bear Power boost, increasing your Power by 30% for 100 seconds]
[Materials required for secret dicine: Strong Blood*10, Spirit Core*5, Tiger Bone Grass*1, Power Crystal*1]
"Increase Power by 30%?" Han Xing was surprised.
According to the Hunter’s formula of 1 point of Power equaling 2 points of Attack Power, his current Power was 18 points, resulting in a 5.4 Power increase, which translates to nearly 11 points of Attack Power.
This was almost equivalent to the enhancent from a weapon, truly an impressive effect!
"With this potion, during battle, it adds at least 20% to my Attack Power, which is quite a lucrative gain!"
Excitedly, Han Xing exclaid, "And this increase especially benefits the Hunter profession. If it were a Warrior profession with 1 point of Power equating to 3 points of Attack Power, the boost would be even greater!"
"Cheng Jianyong and Shen Yun, they should also find it very useful."
At this thought, Han Xing imdiately crafted 100 bottles of Barbarian Bear Power Secret Elixir.
After all, he had plenty of materials now, no shortage at all!
Then, he found Cheng Jianyong and Shen Yun, and traded 20 bottles to each.
He also encouraged them to keep pushing up the leaderboard.
With this elixir, their Attack Power would significantly enhance, speeding up their exploration of Sky Island considerably.
At this mont, Han Xing glanced at the leaderboard.
After incorporating the brown bear’s territory, his territory points increased by over 60 squares, breaking through 800 points, and imdiately surged into the top ten!
Cheng Jianyong and Shen Yun were also not falling behind, their rankings rising swiftly.
Especially Cheng Jianyong, being a Warrior, after obtaining the Barbarian Bear Power Secret Elixir, his Attack Power skyrocketed!
He was like a fighter on adrenaline, with his rank soaring.
He jumped from the 37th place to the 25th in one hour.
However, after starting to use the Barbarian Bear Power Secret Elixir, in just half an hour, his score increased by over 50 points, propelling him into the top twenty!
This speed of progress was almost catching up to Han Xing.
In the chat channel, the Survivors were astounded beyond asure.
Soone swallowed hard and whispered, "How on earth are these guys managing this?"
"When did our area 107 have such monster perforrs?"
His tone was filled with disbelief, and many Survivors shared his sentints.
"Star River God is a different story, adding over 200 points in just three hours, and now not long after, he added nearly 60 again."
"But what’s up with that Lone Brave and Yun Tianming? How are they achieving a percentage increase per hour too?"
No one could offer an answer.
Just then, soone asked, "How co Whisperer and Papaya Star Spirit’s scores haven’t changed? What on earth are they doing?"
"Could they really allow Star River to bounce back and reclaim a top-three position?"
Hearing this, Survivors from Divine Whisper and Plane Boy Group felt a collective chill. They thought Whisperer and Papaya Star Spirit were secure in their victory.
But now, they couldn’t help but feel nervous for Whisperer and Black Eagle!
