When going up the mountain, they had been greatly affected by the temperature, and they had been climbing on foot, making every step difficult. Now, not only was Snow Cherry not affected by the temperature, but she was also flying through the air. As such, the speed at which she was descending the mountain was completely different from when she was climbing the mountain. Back then, it had taken Ling Chen more than a month to climb to the top of the Godchild Peak, and now that the third [Broken Shadow]'s effects were about to end, Snow Cherry had already reached the middle of the mountain, and there was not even a trace of the snow around her.
At this moment, Qi Yue's voice suddenly sounded out in Ling Chen's mind.
"Little master, where have you been during this period of time? Why is my consciousness trapped in the Lunar Scourge and unable to come out? I can't even feel your existence. "
Qi Yue's voice was filled with shock and confusion. In that dark world, Ling Chen could not contact Qi Yue, and Qi Yue's situation was even worse than Ling Chen's. Her consciousness could not even leave the Lunar Scourge's space, let alone contact Ling Chen. She quickly thought that perhaps Ling Chen had entered an extremely special place that had a powerful isolating power. However, she could not think of a place like that in the Forgotten Continent.
"We'll talk about this later! Can't you see that there's a leopard behind me? "Ling Chen said inwardly as he faced the howling wind.
"Oh?" Qi Yue seemed to only just realise that there was a leopard chasing after Ling Chen. She paused for a moment before saying in surprise, "It's a Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard."
"Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard? You've seen it before? "
"No, but I've heard of it," Qi Yue replied. "It's quite famous in the Forgotten Continent. Who would have thought that after 10,000 years, the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard Clan would still exist. I thought that it had already gone extinct. However, even if it went extinct, there would still be records and legends about it. Back then, everyone knew of its nickname, 'Star Chasing Tiger, Wind Chasing Leopard'. "
"Star chasing tiger, wind chasing leopard?"
"The Star Chasing Tiger refers to the guardian beast of the Moon Deities Clan. It is also one of the five sacred beasts of the Forgotten Continent, the Eight-winged Heaven Tiger. Rumor has it that its speed has reached the pinnacle, and it can chase the stars and the moon. No creature in the world can catch up to it. As for the Wind Chasing Leopard, it refers to the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard behind you. When it exerted its speed to the extreme, it could chase the wind and soar through the clouds. However, this Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard didn't represent the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard's true speed, because it was still in its infancy and was only Heaven's End rank. An adult Purple-Winged Clouded Leopard was a Mysterious Spirit expert. Even if you activated Broken Shadow, it would still be able to easily catch up to you. Even so, it's already quite impressive that you were able to stop a young Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard from chasing you for so long. "
This terrifyingly fast Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard was only a child!?
Ling Chen couldn't help but sigh. The world was so big that nothing was too strange. He had thought that after activating Broken Shadow, his speed had already reached the pinnacle of the world, far surpassing the limits of human knowledge. Apart from Xiao Feng Chen, no other creature could catch up to him. But now, it seemed that he was looking at the sky from the bottom of a well.
"Little Master, where did you find this Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard? Why is it chasing you? Although the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard's temperament isn't exactly gentle, it won't attack humans unless provoked. "
"Why is it chasing me? I really want to know! " Ling Chen gritted his teeth. "It's hiding under the ice at the peak of the mountain. The last two times I went there, nothing happened. But this time, it suddenly ran out and chased me relentlessly."
"According to what I know, because of its speed and strength, the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard is often tasked with guarding something. Unless one's overall strength far surpasses it, with its speed, no one will be able to steal what it's guarding. Little Master, did you take something that it was guarding on the peak? "Qi Yue asked.
"How is that possible? The top of the Godchild Peak is extremely cold. Apart from ice and snow, there's nothing else. Even if there's some treasure, it must be hidden under the thick layer of ice. Little Gray can't come out from the peak, so I can't find it even if I want to. What can I take? I've been to the peak three times, and I've only taken a few ice crystals … uh … ice crystals … "
Ling Chen's voice suddenly stopped, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He muttered weakly, "It can't be those ice crystals … those things are everywhere on the Godchild Peak …"
"What ice crystals? Take them out and let me see! "
Ling Chen immediately took out an ice crystal that he had obtained from the Mysterious Door and quickly glanced at its attributes.
[Chilling Crystal Chalcedony]: An ultimate crystal formed after absorbing the True God's aura left behind by an ancient True God for over 100,000 years in an extremely cold environment. It is incredibly tough and contains boundless frost energy, but it doesn't seem cold on the surface. It has a very strong affinity for living creatures. If one eats one, their level will instantly rise by three levels, and the frost energy it contains will transform the consumer's body in the most gentle way, permanently increasing the consumer's resistance to Water by 40%. If it is used to make armor, it will be difficult to break, and if it is used as a weapon, it will be indestructible. It also has a powerful freezing effect.
"This … is a legendary item left behind by the gods, Chilling Crystal Chalcedony!" Qi Yue exclaimed.
Ling Chen's jaw dropped … he had only taken these ice crystals because Shadissika thought they were pretty, so he had taken them for her to play with. He had never thought that these ice crystals would be such powerful items! If one ate one, they would instantly rise by three levels, and permanently increase the user's resistance to Water by 40%! These attributes were simply inconceivable!
And these Chilling Crystal Chalcedonies … he hurriedly counted them … there were more than 80 of them!
'I'm going to be rich …' Ling Chen inwardly groaned.
This meant that this Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard was the guardian of these Chilling Crystal Chalcedonies. And it had appeared right after he had taken all of the Chilling Crystal Chalcedonies.
Ling Chen instantly felt that he had been treated fairly. He had stolen more than 80 of these heaven-defying items right under the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard's nose. It would be strange if the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard didn't chase after him!
However, knowing the reason didn't mean that Ling Chen would return the Chilling Crystal Chalcedonies to the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard. Since he had obtained such powerful Chilling Crystal Chalcedonies, they belonged to him. How could he return them? Not even a single one! Moreover, these Chilling Crystal Chalcedonies had been piled up on the ground, and no one's name had been written on them. It was clear that they didn't have an owner, so it was only right that he took them. This Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard that had suddenly appeared was a blatant act of robbery.
Thinking of this, Ling Chen felt much better.
The final Broken Shadow was in its final countdown, and the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard was still chasing after him. Once Broken Shadow's effects ended, the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard would be able to catch up in an instant. Ling Chen looked at the girl in his arms and gritted his teeth. He suddenly let go of her and leapt off Snow Cherry's body. The Great Ravager and Twilight Spear appeared in his hands as he flew towards the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard.
"Snow Cherry, immediately take her as far away as you can!"
"Ling Chen!!"
Shadissika's panicked cry sounded in his ears. Ling Chen's body had already smashed into the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard's body … his speed was simply too fast, and with Ling Chen suddenly turning around and leaping away, even the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard couldn't react in time … and it didn't need to react at all, because its goal was to kill Ling Chen. Ling Chen giving up on running and suddenly counterattacking was what it wanted to see.
Bang!!!
-26500，-26502，-90800！
The sudden collision at such a high speed sounded out as if a bomb had exploded. In the next instant, the human and beast shot out in two different directions, and three bright red damage figures appeared in the air … two of them were from Ling Chen's [Ling Tian Slash], while the other was from the Evil God's Mask reflecting damage. All three damage figures had been applied to the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard.
This incredibly powerful collision caused Ling Chen's consciousness to scatter, and he didn't even know when he had landed. When he crawled up from the ground, he found that there was a large crater beneath him, and his HP had dropped by nearly half … evidently, his HP hadn't dropped because of the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard, but because he had crashed into the ground. Only after a long while did he come back to his senses, and after struggling for a while, he inwardly sighed. Even crashing into a high-speed train was probably the same as this. On the other side, the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard was in an even worse state than him, and its entire body had been smashed into the mountain … the Evil God's Mask reflected not only damage, but also all of the impact.
Snow Cherry obeyed Ling Chen's wishes and flew far away. Ling Chen searched for a while, and only then did he find that she had stopped almost a thousand meters away. He could only see a faint white figure, and he could finally relax … he could still hear Shadissika's worried and fearful cries.
Since he couldn't run, he would kill her! A savage light flashed in Ling Chen's eyes as he activated [Soul Sacrifice] and rushed towards where the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard was. Just as he took a few steps forwards, the ground beneath his feet suddenly trembled, and with an explosive roar, the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard rushed out from where it had sunk into the ground. It immediately locked onto Ling Chen's position and shot towards him.
The Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard's wings were no longer glowing, and even though it was incredibly fast, it wasn't as fast as it had been when it was chasing after Ling Chen. Evidently, it wasn't as fast as it had been before. Ling Chen's eyes narrowed into two thin lines, and he could clearly see the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard's movements … the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard's body wasn't very large, meaning that its attack range wasn't very large. Ling Chen was confident that with its speed and attack range, it wasn't impossible for him to deal with it.
Whoosh!
This berserk, hurricane-like attack landed on Ling Chen … but it was just an afterimage. Even though his speed was far inferior to the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard's, his monstrously sharp senses and explosive power allowed him to perfectly dodge the attack in that short moment. Because his body was moving too quickly, the afterimage that the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard hadn't been able to disappear in time was as clear as a real afterimage. Ling Chen's real body appeared diagonally below him, and his hands, which had been accumulating power, slammed into the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard's hind legs. His left hand was Thousand Kilogram Rend, while his right hand was Ling Tian Slash!
Boom! Bang!
-132500，-220850。
Even the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard found it hard to endure the berserk attacks under the effect of [Soul Sacrifice]. After two heavy sounds, the momentum of the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard's charge, and the impact of these two heavy blows sent the Purple-Winged Cloud Leopard flying like a rocket. It was smashed nearly a hundred meters away before it landed on the ground. It couldn't maintain its balance at all, and it tumbled down the slope of the mountain.
