Chapter 39: Primordial Phantom Unleashes Its Might! The Ninth Trait — Reaper!
“Damn!”
Liu Qi and Lin Ke looked at each other and saw the sa overwhelming shock in one another’s eyes.
Was Ye Ze really from the sa high school as them?
They had not even seen how Ye Ze’s summoned beast made its move.
By then, Ye Ze had already taken position at the mouth of Dragon Valley.
He said to the others, “Who has lure-type skills or items? Bring all the nearby Storm Dragons over here!”
His tactic was simple and old-school: gather the enemies, then kill them.
Dragon Valley’s terrain was complicated, with countless mountain passages. Searching them out one by one would have been far too troubleso.
The mont they heard that, the more than ninety students behind him hesitated for only an instant before imdiately taking action.
After seeing strength like Ye Ze’s, what was there left to hesitate about?
Hunters’ Falcons, Archers’ Patrol Arrows, Mages’ Elental Spirits, and all kinds of other skills began drawing enemies over.
With so many people involved, the efficiency naturally rose as well.
In only a short while, roars warning of an enemy attack had already begun echoing through Dragon Valley.
More than twenty Storm Dragons ca charging over in fury!
This was the main defensive force at the front of Dragon Valley. This alone would have been enough to stop ninety-nine percent of teams attempting a first clear.
“Human, you dare slaughter the people of the Storm Dragon clan!”
They really talked too much...
Hearing the roar, Ye Ze curled his lip.
“Panda, kill them all. Leave none alive.”
To an ordinary high school student, these dragonkin guards were terrifyingly powerful.
But to the current Jiuli War Beast, this group of Storm Dragons was little more than fodder.
Panda let out a roar and smashed into the dragon pack like a falling teor, unstoppable!
Within its fists and palms, the cutting force of 【Jiuli Sharpness】 burst forth with violent speed!
【Storm Dragon Guard killed ×2, Experience 580!】
【Obtained material - Storm Dragon Bone ×2, equipnt - Dragon Scale Armor】
Though two Level 10 dragonkin guards gave only 580 experience, there were plenty of enemies here.
That was more than enough for Ye Ze to enjoy a satisfying burst of leveling.
But the dragonkin guards were not weaklings either.
The mont they saw Panda charge in on its own, more than twenty dragonkin guards surrounded it on all sides, sealing it in so tightly that not even a drop of water could have passed through.
Liu Qi bared his teeth at the sight. “Damn it, no matter how strong you are, you cannot fight that many at once...”
The other students felt the sa way. Every Group Dungeon guide they had ever seen involved slowly pulling and kiting the enemies, dealing with them one by one.
A style of fighting like Ye Ze’s was simply outrageous.
But in the very next mont, they saw another sight that shook everything they thought they knew.
Ye Ze rely said calmly, “Use Primordial Phantom. Better to put it on cooldown early.”
Then spirit and inner force began gathering around Panda’s body.
Just as the surrounding dragonkin guards were about to pounce and tear it apart...
A gigantic Iron-Eater Beast phantom, nearly ten ters tall and clad in bronze battle armor, descended over Panda as though it had beco corporeal, savage and terrifying beyond words.
The very instant it took shape, the aftershock of its presence alone sent countless Storm Dragon guards flying.
Even from the phantom itself, one could feel that boundless force.
This was a true weapon of war!
Ye Ze could not help muttering, “If this was what Chi You rode back then, I can understand it...”
With Primordial Phantom activated, Panda looked at those dragonkin guards, each more than two ters tall, as though they were nothing more than little chicks.
Drawing on the power of Primordial Phantom, Panda swung down a heavy claw, shattering the ground six or seven ters ahead and sending stone fragnts flying in all directions.
Under that single claw strike, four Storm Dragon guards that failed to escape were instantly killed!
【Storm Dragon Guard killed ×4, Experience 1120】
【Level: 8 (2400/5700)】
Its experience bar nearly jumped to the halfway point.
And this was only the beginning.
With Primordial Phantom active, Panda was like a war god.
At that mont, it was the Storm Dragons that had originally surrounded Panda who felt a chill run through them instead.
How were they supposed to fight that?
Panda rampaged through the center, while the mantis picked off enemies one by one along the periter.
A few Storm Dragons tried to flee the battlefield and wait for Panda’s phantom form to end, only to be cut down in an instant by the mantis’s flashing blade.
The entire front of Dragon Valley had turned into a slaughterhouse.
Compared to that, it was actually the mantis, the Assassin among them, that was killing more slowly.
That was because the cooldown on Void Slash was not especially short, and Void Traverse also consud a small amount of Spirit. Ye Ze had to conserve both for the battles ahead.
As for Panda, even a casual palm strike hit like a wide-area attack. It was terrifyingly powerful.
Primordial Phantom lasted for about five minutes.
Yet before even two minutes of fighting had passed, under an onslaught as unstoppable as a landslide, the more than twenty Storm Dragon guards were completely wiped out.
In barely more than ten minutes since entering the dungeon, Ye Ze had already gained over five thousand experience!
At the sa ti, a glow of leveling up lit up his body.
【Ding! Your level has risen to: Level 9!】
【Talent — You have gained one ‘Infinite Golden Traits’ draw chance!】
“I am already close to Level 10!”
At Level 10, he would qualify to advance to first rank, gaining more room in his Summoned Beast Space and even skills exclusive to Summoners!
At the sa ti, the growth attributes of both Summoner and summoned beasts would also increase.
Within this Group Dungeon, Ye Ze was confident that reaching Level 10 would not be a problem.
“Liu Qi, keep leading people to lure more enemies over.”
The mont he heard the order, Liu Qi answered excitedly, “Got it!”
After seeing Ye Ze’s strength, the other students’ confidence and admiration had both doubled yet again!
As for Ye Ze, he imdiately began drawing a Trait!
In the unseen space around him, the sea of golden Traits began to turn.
【You have drawn a Golden Legend-grade Trait: Reaper!】
【Reaper: When an enemy is killed in a single strike, all skill cooldowns and Spirit consumption are fully refunded!】
The mont he saw that Trait, Ye Ze bestowed it on the mantis without the slightest hesitation!
It suited it perfectly!
Void Slash was instant-cast, devastatingly powerful, and almost impossible to guard against. Its only drawback had been its cooldown.
But now, with the Reaper Trait, it was practically unbeatable!
Void Traverse Void Slash, Void Traverse Void Slash...
That combo chain was like a perpetual-motion machine!
He no longer had to worry about Spirit consumption either.
As long as the mantis’s damage remained high enough, nothing else would be a problem.
【Trait ‘Reaper’ bestowed successfully!】
【Summoned Beast: Void Hunter (Golden Legend) advanced → (Golden Legend☆)】
Once a summoned beast reached Golden Legend grade, raising its stars beca twice as difficult as it had been at Epic grade.
But the effect was especially obvious.
At Level 9, the mantis’s Strength had risen to 225.
That was equivalent to a combat-oriented Class User at Level 25.
The only regret was that he still had not encountered a true “powerful enemy” he could use to evolve the mantis’s body.
At the sa ti, Ye Ze sorted through the equipnt that had just dropped: two Outstanding pieces and four Rare ones.
He fed the three mage items he had no use for to Panda.
【You Are What You Eat! — Used ‘Storm Mage Robe’, gained Spirit 10, Lightning Elent Mastery 20%!】
【You Are What You Eat! —】
The Storm Dragon clan was a lightning-attribute dragon clan, so most of the equipnt they dropped increased Lightning Elent Mastery.
After Panda devoured them in one go, its Lightning Elent Mastery shot up to 51%!
That was effectively the sa as ignoring half of all lightning-elent damage!
“If it keeps eating like this, I am really curious whether the final Storm Dragon boss will even be able to hurt Panda...”
The effect left Ye Ze full of anticipation.
Just then, Liu Qi suddenly shouted, “Brother Ze! I think a mini-boss has appeared!”
