Xu Hao paused for a moment, then said, "Xiaoyu, remember to always bring plenty of medicine whenever you come to the mining area to fight monsters. The entrance to the Corpse King's Palace appears randomly; you never know when you might slip and end up inside. It would be a shame not to be well-prepared!"

Xiaoyu smiled sweetly and nodded. She had gained a lot this time: a Life Necklace and a Magic Shield, which meant she had great potential for future growth. Top-tier equipment and high-level skill books were extremely rare resources, and she had acquired two of them this time.

Many level 35 mages don't have a magic shield. In the level 30 to 40 range, the magic shield is far more important than Ice Roar.

Xu Hao suddenly had a flash of inspiration and seemed to be deep in thought. These zombie kings looked almost identical, but he vaguely sensed subtle differences between them. Recalling his previous battles, the zombie king that had unleashed the "Magic Shield" was clearly more powerful, which made him realize that these zombie kings could be divided into two categories: top-tier and ordinary.

Xu Hao couldn't help but recall the Zuma Guardians in the Zuma Temple, which were also divided into ordinary and top-tier types. Top-tier guards were notoriously difficult to deal with and highly profitable. Back when he was playing the game, Xu Hao had once obtained a Judgment Sword from a top-tier Zuma Guardian.

This discovery thrilled Xu Hao, and his heart raced. In the game Legend, if a monster has the word "top-tier" attached to its name, it's almost guaranteed to be good!

Before long, Xu Hao and Xiao Yu encountered another zombie king. Xu Hao's heart suddenly raced, and his eyes instantly lit up. This zombie king was significantly more massive than the previous one that had unleashed the "Magic Shield," its muscles bulging and radiating a suffocating sense of oppression.

"Top-tier! Absolutely a top-tier Corpse King!" Xu Hao exclaimed inwardly. He was both excited and nervous, his palms sweating involuntarily. This might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; if he could kill this top-tier Corpse King, he might obtain even rarer equipment or skill books.

Zi Yu also noticed the unusual nature of this Corpse King. She nervously swallowed and secretly resolved to do her best.

The two exchanged a knowing glance before engaging in fierce combat. This top-tier zombie king was indeed formidable, with ferocious attacks, astonishing defense, and, even more troublesome, incredible speed.

Xu Hao and Xiao Yu had to concentrate fully and remain vigilant at all times. Every dodge and every attack made their hearts leap into their throats.

The battle lasted a long time, and both Xu Hao and Xiao Yu were exhausted. Finally, with their combined efforts, the Supreme Corpse King let out a mournful howl and collapsed to the ground.

The moment the Corpse King fell, Xu Hao's heart nearly stopped. He held his breath, his eyes fixed on the ground, afraid of missing any falling debris. Suddenly, a golden light flashed, and Xu Hao's pupils contracted sharply. Almost instinctively, he rushed forward, his fingers trembling slightly as he picked up the book that emitted a mysterious light.

When he saw the words on the cover, Xu Hao felt his blood boil.

"Holy shit!!! This book is a piece of junk!!"

Summoning Divine Beasts – The Taoist's Ultimate Skill!

Xu Hao could hardly contain his elation; the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up, and his eyes sparkled with excitement. At this moment, all his fatigue vanished, replaced by an unparalleled sense of accomplishment and joy.

Xu Hao carefully stroked the cover of the skill book, as if touching a rare treasure.

The Taoist profession, whether or not one has a dog, are two completely different concepts.

Xu Hao's heart pounded, and his fingers trembled slightly as he stroked the cover of the "Summon Divine Beast" skill book. Countless images flashed through his mind: himself riding a majestic divine beast across the battlefield, invincible; circling around the divine beast in PvP, casting poison and fire spells to outmaneuver his opponents; or even leisurely clearing out entire monster areas on his own with his divine beast.

Similarly, skill books for "Summoning Divine Beasts" are extremely rare. Back when Xu Hao played Legend of Mir, there were many Taoists at level 37 or 38 who could only lead skeletons around. Xu Hao obtained the skill book by trading it with someone else using a Judgment Sword he obtained in the Path of the Dragon and the Path of the Dragon.

At this moment, an indescribable excitement filled Xu Hao's entire body.

Zi Yu's eyes lit up the moment she saw the skill book in Xu Hao's hand. She jumped up excitedly and cheered, "Brother Xu Hao, you're amazing! You actually got the 'Summon Divine Beast' skill!"

A radiant smile graced her face, as if the skill book were hers alone. Ziyu grabbed Xu Hao's arm, shaking it excitedly: "I heard this book is incredibly powerful! With it, you'll be invincible! I've never seen a Taoist priest with a divine beast before!"

Infected by Zi Yu's enthusiasm, Xu Hao couldn't help but laugh as well. He gently ruffled Zi Yu's hair and said, "Yes, now our strength has increased significantly again."

Zi Yu nodded, then suddenly seemed to remember something and hurriedly opened her backpack to check. She frowned as she counted the remaining potions and said with some worry, "Brother Xu Hao, we're almost out of potions."

Xu Hao also checked his backpack and found that it was indeed almost empty. After thinking for a moment, he said to Zi Yu, "It's time to go back to the city to resupply. We've had a good haul this time, let's go back and organize our supplies and take a rest."

Zi Yu nodded in agreement; she was already feeling somewhat tired. The two exchanged a smile and tacitly took out return scrolls. In the blue light, their figures gradually disappeared, leaving the Corpse King's Palace, a place brimming with both danger and opportunity.

A flash of blue light, and Xu Hao and Zi Yu appeared at the teleportation point in Bichon City. The two walked through the bustling streets and arrived in front of the warehouse. Xu Hao opened the warehouse interface with practiced ease, carefully took out the "Summon Divine Beast" skill book, and placed it in the storage slot.

"Ziyu, we don't need those things for now, let's store them in the warehouse." Xu Hao held out his hand.

Zi Yu nodded and stored the Life Necklace and Magic Shield in her warehouse.

While Zi Yu wasn't paying attention, Xu Hao took the skill books and equipment he had prepared for Lin Ya from the warehouse and put them into his backpack. This time, when he returned to reality, there would be one more powerful superhuman in the world.

After finishing tidying up, the two walked out of the warehouse. The sun was setting, and the streets were gradually emptying of people.

"I should go back to the inn," Ziyu said reluctantly. Then, her face flushed, and she murmured, "Brother Xu Hao, actually, that inn still has quite a few empty rooms!"

Xu Hao seemed not to hear him, and simply nodded, saying, "Sister Ziyu, you should go and rest first. I have something to do, I'll talk to you later!"

Zi Yu: ...I've given such obvious hints, are you...?

Zi Yu snorted and turned to walk towards the inn. Xu Hao watched her go, then said softly, "Little sister, I'd like to too, but... I guess I'll have to do it next time."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Hao's figure gradually faded and finally disappeared into the streets of Beach City. He opened his eyes and returned to the real world.
