Tang Ling launched a kick.
He suddenly felt like his idea was a little stupid. What else could this green shadow be?
This was probably a 'monkey'!
He felt like he was stepping on an iron plate. Following a series of squeaks, the green shadow was sent flying more than a dozen meters away by his kick.
Its nimble body somersaulted twice in the air before it landed nimbly on the ground. It bared its teeth at Tang Ling with a ferocious look.
Tang Ling stood up and moved his slightly sore legs. His expression turned serious.
Due to various reasons, he did not use his full strength in that kick, but if it had been on other animals, it would have crushed their bones and organs.
However, this monkey was fine. How strong was its body?
There was also its speed. Even though it could not hurt Tang Ling with his Precise Instinct and astonishing reflexes at its current speed, if it was too fast …
With that in mind, Tang Ling squinted his eyes and sized up the monkey before him.
Is it a monkey? The monster before him was more than a dozen meters away. Its body was covered in moss-like green fur with sharp fangs and claws. It looked like a monkey and its face was closer to a human's. It was not a creature from the old civilization.
As for whether such a creature existed in the Purple Moon era, Tang Ling had no idea because his active range was still within Safety Sector No. 17. All he knew was from the incomplete database of Safety Sector No. 17.
Since it suffered a loss, the green-furred monkey did not attack Tang Ling anymore. Instead, it glared at him fiercely.
Tang Ling did not care about it. Instead, he looked at the mountain stream that he had been searching for. A single glance was enough to make Tang Ling inhale a cold breath.
The place … was like a weird painting that did not fit in with the environment of the planet.
Faint green water flowed, and both sides of the flowing water were filled with all sorts of strange mushrooms. The bigger ones were more than a dozen meters tall and the mushroom cap was as big as a gazebo. The smaller ones were the size of normal mushrooms.
They were colorful, but they weren't green like 'Gu Gu', nor were they purple.
Among the mushrooms, the green-furred monkeys could be seen jumping around from time to time. Beneath the roots of the mushrooms were piles of dead bodies.
There were all kinds of dead bodies, human, animal, and even insect.
Many of the corpses had already become bones, but there were still some corpses that were clearly 'fresh'. However, there was no strong stench of decay here. Instead, a strange smell filled the entire mountain stream, covering the smell of decay.
The mushroom forest was spreading. The stream that flowed along the mountain stream covered both sides. It was densest near the source and gradually thinned downstream.
And the source!
Tang Ling's hand that was holding the longsword was trembling. He saw a broken spaceship at the source of the explosion.
Half of the ship was embedded in the hill, and the other half was exposed.
The exposed part was not in the shape of a saucer as described by the people of the old civilization. Instead, it was in the shape of a shuttle, and the top of the shuttle was in the shape of an umbrella, but it was badly damaged, making it look like a broken umbrella.
Other than that, in this area, the most active things were the controlled corpses of animals and humans.
Some of them held freshly killed prey in their mouths and threw them into the mushroom bushes. The human corpses seemed to be more dexterous. Because they had five fingers and walked upright, they could do more detailed work.
Therefore, they carried the simplest wooden buckets and collected some kind of liquid from the stem of the mushroom bushes.
After the buckets were filled, they carried the buckets to the spaceship that was embedded in the hill.
"Hmph." Tang Ling chuckled coldly. He could no longer figure out what the spaceship was doing. All he wanted to know was how many lives on this planet had been killed in the 20 years since the spaceship landed here.
Was this the 'Kingdom of Yu' that the crazy Grandfather Han had seen?
This was clearly a blatant invasion. This absurd scene should be part of the ecosystem of the spaceship's' mother planet '. They were reborn here in this way, and then slowly expanded, finally turning this place into their second home. Was this what it meant?
Tang Ling gripped the longsword and stepped out of the cave behind him.
He stood in the middle of the seemingly beautiful mountain stream that was filled with corpses and bones with a tinge of horror.
His feet felt sticky and slippery. Countless liquid from the corpses and spores formed the slippery ground. In the middle of the slippery ground was the blood and tears of the innocent lives on this planet that had been invaded.
In the next second, the green monkey that had been staring at Tang Ling dashed over.
Tang Ling did not even turn around. He swung his longsword in a backhand slash. A flash flashed and the sturdy grade C alloy longsword chopped off one of the green monkey's claws.
Then, Tang Ling dashed forward and leaped over the corpses. He crashed into a five to six meters tall red mushroom and conveniently dodged the attack of a green monkey that pounced at him from behind.
The monkey that had its claws chopped off shrieked sharply. The other monkeys that were shuttling through the mushroom bushes started to gather together. The zombie beasts and zombies that were controlled by the fungus also gathered together.
It seemed like the mountain stream was the final battlefield of the Dream Domain's Qingxi town.
Everything was just as Tang Ling expected.
Tang Ling was calm in the face of everything. Only the excitement of entering the battle rose from his heart.
He had a smart brain, but if it was necessary, he didn't like to observe, analyze, investigate, and analyze. He didn't like the so-called strategy of strategizing.
He preferred violence and killing to vent his anger, to warn, to intimidate, to avenge, and to pay tribute to the blood, tears, and hatred that had been shed in the past.
Therefore, he watched calmly as a gust of green wind floated in the air and enveloped the monkey that had its claws chopped off.
He calmly watched as the monkey monster grew a new claw.
He watched as the monsters and demons gathered together and allowed the mission notification to pop up in his head. 'Discovered Myriad Mushroom Mountain Stream. Mission completion rate: 70%.'
'Discovered high composite lifeform — Green Fungus Mannequin. Mission completion rate: 75%.'
'Discovered broken mothership. Mission completion rate: 80%.' 'Dream Seed 0233, would you like to leave the Dream Domain now?' 'Yes. A Domain Gate will appear in three minutes. You can leave the Dream Domain through the Domain Gate and complete the mission.' 'No. You will only have the right to choose again when the mission completion rate reaches 90%.'
Hmph, so this was the Dream Domain.
Therefore, nothing was going to be easy. The line between life and death was still a line between life and death. For example, if he chose the lowest 80% completion rate, he would still have to fight for three minutes before he could leave.
Was the battle scary? Yes, it was. The monkey was a Green Fungus Mannequin, a type of human? It was almost immortal. As long as the green fungus was around, it was invincible and unafraid of death.
In order to eliminate it, Tang Ling would have to eliminate the green fungus, and in order to eliminate the green fungus, he would have to eliminate the group of Green Fungus Mannequins.
It was a perfect cycle. Unless Tang Ling was strong enough to kill all of them within a short period of time.
Could Tang Ling do it? Of course not! However, holding on for three minutes was not a problem.
However, three minutes was the limit. The Green Fungus Mannequins were as hard as steel, fast, and agile. If a group of them pounced on him, what kind of battle would Tang Ling have to face? Aside from the zombies and zombie beasts …
On top of that, there was something else that was terrifying — contagious.
Would the green fungus that was similar to the Devil Fungus be contagious? Tang Ling dared not take the risk.
But … But!
A mocking smile appeared on Tang Ling's face. He mocked himself for being more of an opportunist. As long as there was a slim chance, he would definitely take it.
Other than that, he was a person who believed in giving. He hated waiting and following the prescribed order. He was willing to sacrifice his life in exchange for greater rewards.
For example, the extreme battle.
Therefore, in the next ten seconds, he calmly bit the torch horizontally in his mouth and removed the leather hook from his tactical belt. He then tied the longsword and his hand tightly together.
As for the remaining 1.5 kgs of Level 2 vicious beast jerky, he took it out from his backpack and put it in the pocket of his jacket that was the most convenient for him.
The thought of it was exhilarating. A battle that was extremely painful would require more killing to vent his emotions.
As for the weak period? No, there was no weak period. At a certain moment, he would go all out and summon the seed to transform.
As for the success rate? The success rate was around 40%. Was 40% not worth the risk? The risk was much higher than the line between life and death.
Tang Ling was completely excited. Even his breathing was a little hurried. Although he looked like he was trembling in fear, in his mind, he simply chose 'no'.
At that moment, it was like a signal to the Dream Domain to declare war.
The Green Fungus Mannequins that had gathered together threw themselves at Tang Ling madly. Tang Ling took a step forward and dashed like the wind in the next second.
He raised his longsword and clashed. A glare flashed and a Green Fungus Mannequin in front was sliced in half in mid-air.
Look, the good news was that the Grade C longsword was powerful enough to break through the Green Fungus Mannequin's defense.
With that thought in mind, Tang Ling spun around and lashed out with one of his legs like the fiercest whip. It drew a perfect arc in the air and collided with the two Green Fungus Mannequins that pounced at him from the left with a bang.
At the same time, the Wolf Crunch that was as sharp as a venomous needle slid out from his hand. He twisted his right wrist and revealed the sharpest tip of the Wolf Crunch, stabbing it into one of the Green Fungus Mannequins' ears.
Tang Ling pulled the Wolf Crunch out and retracted the leg that executed the perfect side kick. He bent down and executed a standard Iron Bridge Move, dodging the Green Fungus Mannequin that pounced at him from above.
At the same time, his hands were placed on the ground, and with a push, he flipped his body upside down.
He spun and spread his legs as elegantly as a dancer. His legs spun in the air and swept away three Green Fungus Mannequins.
Then, he laid down and slightly bent his body forward. His body shot out like a rocket and crashed into a giant corpse tiger. The corpse tiger roared and fell to the ground, but Tang Ling grabbed it and hurled it out like a giant sandbag, smashing away all the monsters within a 3 meter radius around him.
Was this a battle? No, this was a perfect performance. There were no gaps in the fight, and there was not the slightest bit of extra movement. Amidst the flowing water, there was an extreme sense of violence and beauty.
It was the masterpiece of Precise Instinct and extreme control of his body.
It was just the beginning. It was just a warm-up. When the surging battle song started, it was the first beat of the war drum that started the battle.
Tang Ling kept moving forward, heading towards the broken spaceship. Step by step, he moved forward in the mushroom forest.
Immortal monsters? No, they did not exist. In Tang Ling's eyes, they were just more enemies.
From one to ten, then a hundred.
But so what? What Tang Ling wanted was to push himself to the limit. He wanted to go crazy and accumulate his rage to smash the walls of the cliff. He wanted to smash open an exit and rush out.
Only slaughter, the cruelest slaughter, using such slaughter to fulfill the benevolence in one's heart.
Perhaps, this was compassion! Because of Tang Ling's compassion.
Three minutes went by.
Five minutes went by.
Ten minutes went by.
The strangely beautiful mushroom forest was carved out by Tang Ling after he slaughtered his way through. Countless zombie beasts and zombies piled up beside the bloody path.
The Green Fungus Mannequins, which had been repaired countless times, threw themselves at Tang Ling fearlessly. They did not care about death at all. Their ferocious nature was provoked by Tang Ling's madness, so all that was left was to fight to the death.
Tang Ling's breath was heavy. Beads of sweat rolled down his face and occasionally streaked across his eyes.
But what about his limit? He still had not reached his limit.
The strength in his body was still there, his speed was still there, and his reflexes did not slow down either.
Is this it? Tang Ling had a feeling that he needed more stimulation.
It was at that moment that two giant Green Fungus Mannequins jumped out from the broken spaceship. Their eyes were filled with intellect.
They stood on top of the spaceship, roaring and jumping around, but they did not attack Tang Ling. Instead, they seemed to be commanding something.
What were they commanding? The group of Green Fungus Mannequins stopped attacking Tang Ling and started to scatter.
Upon a closer look, they formed groups of three to five and started to guard the mushrooms within a certain range.
Tang Ling squinted his eyes. He seemed to understand what the two giant Green Fungus Mannequins were trying to do. They were commanding the group of low-intellect Green Fungus Mannequins to guard the place and not to fight like idiots.
So, they were more concerned about the mushrooms? Tang Ling's eyes flashed with a hint of madness as he removed the torch from his mouth.
Do I care? Tang Ling raised the longsword in his hand and swung it down, cutting the torch in half. He bit one half of the torch back into his mouth and held the other in his hand.
Do you really think I didn't know? Tang Ling turned his back to the broken spaceship at the top and slowly stepped back as if he was on guard.
After more than 10 minutes of fighting, he was already very close to the source of the mountain stream, the hill that was embedded with the broken spaceship.
Around the hill, there were still zombies busy carrying buckets of black liquid from the mushrooms into the spaceship as if what happened here had nothing to do with them.
Nothing to do with them? Tang Ling suddenly moved. Like a ferocious tiger released from its cage, he dashed to the right and rammed a zombie less than 5 meters away with a wooden bucket, knocking it to the ground.
The wooden bucket in Tang Ling's hand flew up as well. He leaped up and caught the bucket in mid-air.
The two giant Green Fungus Mannequins on the spaceship shrieked fiercely. The smaller Green Fungus Mannequins that had scattered earlier threw themselves at Tang Ling in a frenzy.
"Hahaha!" Tang Ling's laughter sounded wild as he plunged the torch into the bucket of black liquid without a second thought.
The torch did not go out. Instead, it blazed into the sky.
A split second later, he splashed the flaming liquid at the giant, grayish-white mushroom.
With Tang Ling's precision and strength, it was a piece of cake for him to splash the liquid on the giant mushroom that was less than 10 meters away from him.
As the giant Green Fungus Mannequins shrieked, the liquid that Tang Ling splashed was like a burning fire snake. It streaked across the sky in an elegant arc and landed on the giant fungus of the grayish-white mushroom.
Boom! An explosive sound came from the ash-grey mushroom. A gigantic fire dragon seemed to have been summoned. It soared into the sky, and the fire raged fiercely in an instant.
The two giant Green Fungus Mannequins went mad. One of them dashed back into the spaceship while the other dashed towards Tang Ling.
Tang Ling stood beside the fire. His figure wielding the sword was set off by the flames, making him look like a slaughterer from hell.
He was not afraid at all. Instead, a greater excitement stimulated his brain.
He dashed towards the giant Green Fungus Mannequins.
Beside him, a group of smaller Green Fungus Mannequins dashed back into the spaceship in a frenzy. No one cared about Tang Ling anymore.
As for Tang Ling, he did not care either. He wanted to fight. All he wanted was to fight.
The mission notification from the Dream Domain popped up in his mind.
'Discovered and destroyed an Energy Conversion Corpse Mushroom. Activated sub-mission: Destroy the source. Completion: 20%. '
'Completion: 40%. Reward: 1 Dream Coin. Increase main mission completion rating by a little. '
'Completion: 60%. Reward: 2 Dream Coins. Increase main mission completion rating by a little. '
'Completion: 80%. Reward: 5 Dream Coins. Increase main mission completion rating by a little. '
'Completion: 100%. Reward: 10 Dream Coins. Increase main mission completion rating by a rank. '
'Gosh! How stingy! ' Tang Ling exclaimed in his heart. Even if he completed 100%, he would only get 10 Dream Coins to raise his completion rating from B to A.
However, a 100% completion of the main mission was only a C, and all the missions that he had activated would only get him to B?
Then, where was A? If there was an S, what did he have to achieve?
With the thought lingering in his mind, Tang Ling and the giant Green Fungus Mannequins clashed madly.
Like two cannonballs that had just been fired, they collided with each other in the air. The impact produced a dull sound that made people's teeth ache, and it also created a strong gust of wind.
The wind alone was enough to blow an innocent zombie to the ground.
Then, both of them separated without a sound. Tang Ling staggered a dozen steps back and spat out a mouthful of blood.
As for the giant Green Fungus Mannequin, it only took a step back before it steadied itself. Its eyes glared at Tang Ling with a cold glare of hatred.
Finally, I've met a guy that I can't beat!
Finally, the Dream Domain revealed how difficult it was to raise its rating. Was it almost impossible to achieve?
Nevertheless, Tang Ling was excited. He knew that he could no longer measure his strength by punching out. He had to use a more complicated calculation method.
The calculation was too complicated. For example, a person's explosive bite force, impact force, and punching force were all part of the category of strength and mainly came from the contraction of the skeletal muscles.
A simpler conversion would be using the strength of a bull as the standard.
Tang Ling's current strength was equivalent to the strength of two bulls, or in short, the strength of two bulls.
Therefore, the giant Green Fungus Mannequin should have the strength of three bulls or even more.
The ancient Huaxia people used the strength of nine bulls and two tigers to describe a person's strength, but the modern people preferred to use horsepower to describe their strength. Since the core of the concept was the same, all he had to do was find a reference object to provide an easily understandable value.
Would Tang Ling submit to a monster that was far stronger than him? Would he have to quickly reach 90% completion rate and get out of the Dream Domain?
No, Tang Ling was excited.
He spat out the remaining blood in his mouth. The pain from his ribs stimulated him intensely.
The collision just now had cracked his ribs.
As long as it did not affect his movement, pain was the best stimulant.
If he could not beat the giant in strength, what about speed?
Tang Ling took the initiative to dash towards the giant Green Fungus Mannequin again. This time, it was not a direct clash of strength but a performance of extreme speed.
They clashed again. Amidst the sparks and the small Green Fungus Mannequins that were moving back and forth, they clashed again.
Under the sky that was about to completely darken.
All Tang Ling could see was the afterimages of the blade flashing like a silver-white flower blooming under the night sky.
All he could see were countless green claw shadows that were like the green leaves that complemented the silver-white flower. Layers upon layers surrounded the blade flashes.
Tang Ling had never learned any so-called blade techniques. All he had was speed.
The giant Green Fungus Mannequin did not know any fighting techniques either. It did not even know what modern fighting techniques were, let alone the ancient Huaxia martial arts. All it had was speed.
They fought each other with speed, exchanging blows endlessly.
This extreme struggle lasted less than two minutes. After another collision, the two separated again.
Tang Ling started to pant heavily. His battle uniform started to tear and wounds started to appear all over his body. Blood started to flow out from his wounds.
On the other hand, a lot of the green fur on the giant Green Fungus Mannequin was shaved off and its body was covered in wounds.
However, Tang Ling was at a disadvantage because he would inevitably have to face the problem of being infected.
However, the giant Green Fungus Mannequin was not infected at all. As long as it was replenished with the green fungus, it would recover to its original state.
On top of that, Tang Ling also lost in terms of speed.
Although the gap in strength was not that huge, it was an indisputable fact that Tang Ling was a little slower.
Tang Ling was not afraid of the truth at all. The bigger the gap, the more agitated he became.
However, time was running out.
There was still one last way that he could try. What if he combined his Precise Instinct with his reflexes and focused on dodging while he looked for a chance to deliver the fiercest strike?
The giant Green Fungus Mannequin obviously did not think as much as Tang Ling about the battle. It was not as crazy as Tang Ling either. All it wanted to do was to crush this lowly creature that destroyed everything and restore order to the Myriad Mushroom Valley.
Therefore, both of them clashed again.
Tang Ling's last way of fighting was obviously the most effective one. Under the operation of his Precise Instinct, the Green Fungus Mannequin's attacks slowly lost their effectiveness.
Tang Ling's dodging started to become strange and unpredictable. His dodging almost formed a perfect counter to the giant Leceister silverback bear's attacks.
The scene when he faced the giant Leceister silverback bear replayed itself. It was like a man and a beast performing a coordinated performance.
This kind of battle was the limit of Tang Ling's endurance because his Precise Instinct was operating rapidly. In order to achieve the rehearsal of his Precise Instinct and keep up with its speed, he had to muster all his strength and give it his all.
Strength, speed, reflexes, and even his full concentration of spirit …
After three consecutive battles, it once again proved Tang Ling's craziness and his pursuit of the ultimate in battle. He used the giant Green Fungus Mannequin, which was much stronger than him, as a whetstone to adjust, think, and combine all aspects of his fighting style.
30 seconds later, Tang Ling's Wolf Crunch grazed the giant Green Fungus Mannequin's brow.
42 seconds later, the giant Green Fungus Mannequin's armpit was stabbed by the Wolf Crunch.
It seemed like it cherished its life a lot. After a single strike, it roared and retreated.
Tang Ling wobbled and almost lost his footing.
If it wasn't for the fact that he had finally pushed himself to his limits, this last battle should have been even more exciting, right?
Time was running out, and the game was coming to an end.
The smaller Green Fungus Mannequin dashed out of the spaceship with wooden buckets in their hands. They were drawing water from the green stream and frantically extinguishing the fire.
Would it work? If not, they would soon fall short of success.
Tang Ling saw the giant Green Fungus Mannequin's performance, and he was even more confident in his final crazy plan.
While the giant Green Fungus Mannequin that cherished its life shrunk back and was busy mending its wound, he grabbed a handful of Level 2 vicious beast jerky and shoved it into his mouth.
He did not know how many jerky he had, but he chewed crazily. After a small bite, he swallowed a few more.
It was not just crazy anymore. It was utter insanity!
In a battle that seemed endless and tedious, victory or defeat was often decided in the last few minutes.
Tang Ling only had a few minutes left.
So, come out, awaken, seed that has been watered by the energy for the past few days.
Tremendous pain engulfed Tang Ling like a ball of fire as he swallowed mouthful after mouthful of jerky. He started to scream madly in his heart.
However, his hands did not stop as he continued to stuff jerky into his mouth.
So, you need a powerful spirit to appear, and my spirit wasn't strong enough before. That's why I need enough stimulation.
I succeeded in the garage mission last time, which means my spirit is at the tipping point to match yours, right?
Tang Ling's body started to tremble. He did not use the eating technique because it was unnecessary. After he merged with the seed, his powerful body would have a stronger digestive ability.
So, I've been growing in the Dream Domain for the past few days. Does the growth include my spirit?
Because of this uncertainty, I was only forty percent sure.
But is 40% enough? If I'm facing an enemy, it's far from enough. If I'm facing you, I'm willing to bet even 10%.
Because we share the same life and we are connected by blood …
So, come out!
Tang Ling chewed the last mouthful of Level 2 vicious beast jerky. This time, he swallowed half of the remaining vicious beast jerky, which was a whole catty and a half.
What kind of madness was this? Almost every single cell in his body was burning with a raging flame.
Even if Tang Ling's body was greedy and the seed was greedy, they were bloated to the limit. Only the fiercest battle could allow him to vent his anger.
The madman in battle, Tang Ling, once again set up a bet in the middle of the battle.
Without further ado, he revealed his trump card.
The moment he said it, he almost screamed it out loud. His voice was accompanied by immense pain, a frenzied desire for battle, endless rage, and frenzied excitement.
The seed was awakened in his heart.
The explosive, familiar energy was even faster than the burning pain from the vicious beast jerky. It surged into Tang Ling's limbs and bones in an instant.
What's so great about the giant Green Fungus Mannequin? Big Tang Ling, do you want to try?
The transformation was completed in an instant. A ferocious, suffocating war machine appeared in the Myriad Mushroom Valley!
Countdown timer: 5 minutes.
This was the time for the transformation. The final madness had begun.
Tang Ling picked up the torch that was dropped on the ground due to his roar and bit it again.
His seemingly slow and unhurried movements exploded as he suddenly raised his head, his blood-red eyes revealing a crazed glint.
He moved, leaving an afterimage in his wake. In the next moment, he appeared in front of the large Green Fungus Mannequin.
He raised his fist. It flashed in the air and landed on the large Green Fungus Mannequin with a loud bang.
The large Green Fungus Mannequin instinctively resisted, but Tang Ling was already infected, so he did not care about its resistance at all.
Exchanging blow for blow, let alone hurting me.
Punch after punch, Tang Ling's fists formed the fiercest and fiercest rain of punches on the large Green Fungus Mannequin's body.
Every time it struck, there would be a dull thud that sounded like the fiercest of war drums.
Precise Instinct was not needed, reaction speed was not important, and he did not even dodge the punches. All he did was attack fervently.
After the seed exploded, it was madness piled on madness and madness piled on madness.
Battle was the best battle to vent his anger!
Tang Ling only used 20 seconds to punch the large Green Fungus Mannequin into a shapeless meat patty.
It would not die because it could repair itself, but the desire to destroy was strong.
However, his desire to destroy was so strong that he picked up the meat pie and tore it into several pieces before tossing them on the ground.
Even if it did not die, it must repair itself with the greatest cost, right?
Countdown timer: 4 and a half minutes.
Tang Ling dashed towards the broken spaceship like the wind. His large body nimbly leaped up and grabbed a protruding rock at a higher spot. He then leaped up again and landed on the top of the spaceship.
The entrance was at the top.
Tang Ling ran on the top of the spaceship, causing the whole broken spaceship to produce heavy thuds and tremble slightly.
The entrance was right in front of him. Tang Ling dashed over and jumped down.
'Entered the spaceship. Main mission completion: 90%.
'Dream Seed No. 0233 has acquired the right to choose again. Exit the Dream Domain. The Domain Gate will appear in 3 minutes. Refuse to exit. The next choice will appear after the completion of the mission reaches 100%. '
'Hint: This scenario is highly dangerous. This scenario is highly dangerous.'
