Even with a single drop of blood, I will still be invincible!

"It's this trick again!"

Watanabe Toru immediately searched for Su Mubai's figure, but found nothing.

His gaze swept across the town below, and his intuition told him that Bai Ye was among them.

Just as he was about to examine it closely, the Dark Feathered Vulture objected.

Having been stabbed but finding himself not seriously injured, the Dark Feathered Vulture let out a screech and spread its wings to attack Watanabe Toru.

More than the frost, it wanted to take revenge on this human!

The Dark Feather Vulture dared to attack not only because it discovered that Watanabe Toru's strength had decreased, but also because it suddenly sensed an energy within its own body.

And this energy is propelling it to an even higher level!

"You beast, you're asking for death!"

Watanabe Toru shouted coldly, his katana slashing horizontally to block the Dark Feather Vulture's attack, but he was startled.

This beast's strength has actually increased?

"Wow!"

Feeling the growing power, the Dark Feathered Vulture let out excited cries and launched a frenzied attack.

For a moment, Watanabe Toru was completely distracted and unable to concentrate on finding Su Mubai's whereabouts.

In the chaotic town below, Su Mubai had already blended into the crowd of refugees.

The surrounding area was filled with ordinary residents of the town, who were frantically fleeing due to the sudden attack by the Dark Feathered Vulture.

They had absolutely no interest in Su Mubai's existence.

The moment the curtain of death shifted, Su Mubai stored Frost into his mount space.

He then used [Dead Zone Jump] to successfully blend into the crowd.

Not only that, before the jump, he also took the opportunity to glance at the Dark Feather Vulture.

It was this glance that swelled Dark Feather Vulture's confidence, making him dare to confront Watanabe Toru head-on.

[Catastrophe]!

Target: Dark Feathered Vulture!

"Advanced to the next rank!"

That's all that happened in that instant. At this moment, the Dark Feathered Vulture is already in the process of evolving.

Before long, its strength will be upgraded to a whole new level!

This is not good news for Watanabe Toru and Kogawa Castle.

High in the sky, the fierce battle between the two continued, and Watanabe Toru was increasingly surprised by the fight.

Why does it feel like this beast's power keeps increasing?

At this moment, he could no longer care about Su Mubai and had to do everything he could to deal with the enemy in front of him.

Among the crowd below, Su Mubai turned his head and glanced at the battlefield high in the sky, then smiled slightly.

"This gift should be quite nice. I hope the Cherry Blossom Kingdom will like it."

The next moment, his figure disappeared from the spot, vanishing from the edge of the town and entering a jungle outside the city.

Five minutes later, the Dark Feathered Vulture's body suddenly burst forth with multicolored light, and a terrifying power erupted in the sky above the town.

boom!

The powerful impact forced Watanabe Toru back, and he exclaimed in shock:

"Legendary!!!"

"Screech!" x5

The evolved Darkfeathered Vulture doubled in size, and its original two heads became five.

Ten cold, gleaming eyes stared mockingly at Watanabe Toru, a cruel, almost human smile on their faces.

Over the years, it is because of this that the scope of human activity has been continuously compressed.

Today, the time for revenge has finally come!

Without the slightest hesitation, the Dark Feathered Vulture launched a fierce attack directly at Watanabe Toru.

"Damn it, how could this beast suddenly evolve?"

Watanabe Toru's expression changed drastically, and he unleashed all his power to barely resist.

Although he also possesses an 8th-level realm, corresponding to a legendary creature.

However, its attributes have been reduced by 40% by Su Mubai's [Death Gaze], making it no match for the Dark Feather Vulture.

"Lord City Lord, what happened? Where is Bai Ye?!"

Takahashi Ichiro finally caught up, but the scene before him left him somewhat bewildered.

Aren't we chasing intruders?

How did we end up fighting with this bald bird?

His gaze swept over the Dark Feathered Vulture, and Takahashi Ichiro exclaimed in surprise, "What?! How did this guy evolve?"

"Baka! Come help! We can't worry about Bai Ye right now. If we can't stop this guy, the whole Zichuan City will be doomed!"

Watanabe Toru wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and roared in a hoarse voice.

Takahashi Ichiro immediately snapped to attention and joined the battle.

With the pressure greatly reduced, Watanabe Toruya was finally able to find time to send out a distress message.

Further back, the city guards rushed in, and the great battle between Zichuan City and the legendary BOSS Dark Feather Demon Vulture officially began.

However, all of this has nothing to do with Su Mubai anymore.

After helping the Dark Feather Demon Vulture advance its level for free, he quietly left, truly leaving without a trace of his accomplishments and fame.

As for how things will develop next, that's none of his business.

After using [Dead Zone Leap] repeatedly until he was far away, Su Mubai summoned Frost again and continued towards Jingli City.

The Forbidden Land is vast; even a small Sakura Kingdom has an astonishingly large map span.

Even at frost speed, it took them quite a while to finally reach the vicinity of Jingli City.

Along the way, neither of them encountered any further unexpected situations.

You have discovered Shifeng Mountain.

Upon hearing the system notification, Su Mubai, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them.

According to the information on the treasure map, the treasure chest is on this map.

Su Mubai immediately signaled Bing Shuang to lower the flight altitude and began searching in the direction indicated by the treasure map.

At the same time, he had a sudden thought and changed the way experience was distributed.

The monsters he had encountered before were too low-level to provide much experience for Frost, so he couldn't think of them for the time being.

But this map is different; all the monsters on the ground are level 40 or higher.

Even though upgrading Frost requires a hundred times the experience, you can level up quickly by killing these upgraded bosses.

However, before that, we need to find the location of the treasure chest.

With the treasure map, it didn't take long for Su Mubai to find the treasure chest.

Surprisingly, there were no guardian monsters around this Dark Gold level treasure chest.

However, its location is also quite tricky, situated in a depression in the middle of a cliff, surrounded by vegetation.

Without the guidance of a treasure map, it would be very difficult for anyone to find the treasure chest here.

[Dead Zone Leap]!

After confirming that there were no guardian monsters, Su Mubai had an idea and went straight to the treasure chest.

[An unlocked legendary chest has been discovered. Open it?]

"no."

Su Mubai refused outright; Dark Gold grade was not what he wanted.

[Catastrophe]!

[Target: Dark Gold Treasure Chest]!

"Advanced to the next rank."

The next moment, the treasure chest suddenly burst forth with tri-colored light.

Instead of growing larger, the box began to shrink slowly, and obscure and difficult-to-understand inscriptions appeared on its surface.

When the promotion ended and the system notification sounded again, Su Mubai's smile froze.

[A locked epic chest has been discovered.]

???

No, it wasn't locked before, how did it get locked after the upgrade?!

Give me back my unlocked treasure chest!
