That night, Lin Huang had a good sleep. He did not even hear any monster roars throughout the night.
The next morning, after washing up, Lin Huang found four monster carcasses lying outside the cave. The weakest one was an immortal-level rank-3 while the strongest one was an immortal-level rank-5.
All four of the monster carcasses were killed in one hit. Their heads were chopped off and there were no other wounds on their bodies. Moreover, the carcasses were dehydrated and there was no trace of blood around them.
After putting the four monster carcasses away, Lin Huang knew that he had made the right decision to let Bai keep watch at night. If the Eclipse Boa had been the one keeping watch, he would not have been able to sleep through the night.
After eating some snacks, Lin Huang recalled Bai into its card form before it was even seven in the morning. He then left with Bloody and the Eclipse Boa. The reason why he did not bring Bai along was that it would be inconvenient for him to double accelerate to get rid of the monster when he was attacked. Bai's flying speed was not as fast as his double accelerate. Unlike Bai, Bloody and the Eclipse Boa could just stay on his back as passengers.
The monster cave that Lin Huang stayed at was more than eight hours away from his destination. He planned to find the Devil's Psykid before the sun went down and kill it. If he were to encounter a few monsters along the way, it would be impossible for him to arrive at his destination before the sky turned dark.
Moreover, although the black market had given Lin Huang the exact coordinates, it was unlikely that the Devil's Psykid was at the same place. Perhaps he would need Bloody's help to find it. After considering all these reasons, Lin Huang left early in the morning.
As he flew at a low altitude, the situation was the same as the day before. Many of the monsters attacked Lin Huang from a distance, and some of them even chased after him.
Lin Huang used the same tactic as the day before. He did not entangle himself with the monsters and instead, he accelerated to get rid of them.
He had been using this tactic for more than five hours and nothing happened. However, when it was past noon, Lin Huang finally encountered some trouble.
An immortal-level rank-5 triple mutated monster was staring at Lin Huang from the sky.
"Ashenplume Demonic Falcon …" Lin Huang recognized the vicious bird in the sky the moment he realized that he had become the hunting target.
Lin Huang had chosen to fly at a low altitude to avoid encountering bird-type monsters.
In the sky, in addition to the frequent appearance of flocks of bird-type monsters, there was also this kind of powerful bird-type monster, although it was a single one.
The reason why Lin Huang didn't want to provoke bird-type monsters was that most of them had amazing flying abilities. Many of them could fly faster than Lin Huang even with double acceleration. Once they met in the air, there was no way to shake them off. They could only kill them. It wouldn't matter if it happened once or twice, but it would be a huge waste of time if they kept encountering it along the way.
However, even though he chose to keep a low profile and fly at a low altitude, Lin Huang was still targeted by the Ashenplume Demonic Falcon, and he felt somewhat helpless about it.
The Ashenplume Falcon was a triple mutated monster with the bloodline of the ancient beast, the Crimson Falcon. It was the top predator in the sky.
The Viridescent Thunder Eagle, which Thunder belonged to, was far below it in the bird food chain. They were not on the same level at all. No matter if it was the number of mutations, the strength of its bloodline, or its combat level, it was inferior to the Ashenplume Falcon.
Lin Huang did not want to waste any more time. As soon as he realized that the monster was targeting him, he activated double acceleration in an attempt to shake it off.
However, he did not expect the Ashenplume Falcon to chase after him relentlessly. It was not in a rush to attack him. Instead, it followed not far behind Lin Huang as if it was playing a game of cat and mouse.
Seeing that it was not attacking him, Lin Huang decided not to bother about it. He resumed his original speed and continued his journey.
With the Ashenplume Falcon behind him, many monsters below him were running away, afraid that they would become its prey. None of the monsters attacked Lin Huang from afar anymore. Lin Huang did not know whether to laugh or cry at the strange 'side effect'. "I can't believe that I'm flaunting the tiger's might for once."
However, Lin Huang's happiness did not last long. More than ten minutes later, the Ashenplume Falcon seemed to have noticed that its prey was not afraid of it. It lost its patience and charged towards Lin Huang.
"I've been waiting for you to attack!" Seeing that the Ashenplume Falcon was charging towards him, Lin Huang was not surprised. Instead, he was delighted. A black battle sword was formed in his hand.
Seeing that Lin Huang had taken out his weapon, the Ashenplume Falcon was even more ferocious.
'How dare a mere human resist?!'
"Screech!"
With a shriek, the Ashenplume Falcon flapped its wings. Two gusts of wind were formed out of thin air, twisting into a spiral shape in the air and sweeping towards Lin Huang.
"That's not a bad move." Lin Huang grinned. The Ashenplume Falcon used its ultimate move right from the start. It did not hold back at all. If its attack were to land on an immortal-level rank-5 monster, it might be killed on the spot.
However, there was no fear on Lin Huang's face. He lifted the sword in his hand and it looked like he was just casually swinging it.
A crimson saber light turned into a blood crescent and shot out. It collided with the gale in an instant.
In the next second, the wind that was powerful enough to kill an immortal-level rank-5 was sliced into half like a piece of tofu.
In the air, after the bloody crescent had sliced through the wind, it did not slow down at all. It pierced through the Ashenplume Falcon's neck.
The Ashenplume Demon Falcon's screeching suddenly stopped. A moment later, a trace of purple blood seeped out from its neck. Then, its head was separated from its neck, and purple blood spurted out from its severed neck.
At that moment, a bloody glow shot out from Lin Huang's sleeve. The Eclipse Boa flew into the air and opened its mouth, swallowing the Ashenplume Falcon's head and carcass that was still spurting blood.
The Ashenplume Falcon's ability was actually very powerful. Even on the second layer of the Abyss Brink, it could still escape if it encountered some monsters that it could not defeat. It was easily killed by Lin Huang in one hit. One reason was that it had underestimated Lin Huang, and the other was that Lin Huang was too powerful.
Before Mr. Fu's special training, Lin Huang might have needed some time to kill the Ashenplume Falcon. However, after the devilish training, he had been reborn and his ability was no longer the same as before.
Although the appearance of the Ashenplume Falcon had delayed Lin Huang for some time, it did not cause him any real trouble.
The next three hours were much calmer. Lin Huang did not encounter any bird-type monsters. Using the strategy that he had used the day before, he arrived at the location provided by the black market at about 3.30 p.m.
He looked around at the coordinates but did not find any trace of the Devil's Psykid. He slowly landed on the ground and observed the ground. Still, there was no sign of the Devil's Psykid.
