Three slashes to cut down a mid-tier exotic beast. This held great significance to Zhang Che.

This meant that from now on, he had the strength to take down mid-tier legend-quality exotic beasts without relying on his babies.

Perhaps even among high-tier beastmasters, there wouldn’t be many who had reached such a height.

Not only that, the two swords could become more powerful!

Then, other than consuming the remains of those top-tier exotic beasts, were the two swords able to become more powerful by consuming rare minerals?

Humans were seldom content with what they have. Zhang Che immediately thought of that.

With an idea, naturally he wanted to turn it into reality.

Therefore, Zhang Che had the Purple Crystal Tortoise spit out a pile of scarlet meteorite. Afterwards, he looked at the scarlet sword hovering at his side, filled with anticipation, hoping it would show a reaction.

Alas, facing the extremely rare mineral, the scarlet meteorite, the scarlet sword didn’t show any desire to consume it.

“This is tricky... You’re so picky. Where am I supposed to find food for you?” Zhang Che sighed. It seemed like it wouldn’t be easy to continue upgrading the two swords.

The remains of divine-quality exotic beasts was something only encountered by chance.

Not only that, Zhang Che guessed that the remains they consumed might not be divine-quality. Perhaps it was super divine-quality!

In that case, to find similar remains in the future would be akin to finding a needle in a haystack.

He no longer thought about it. For now, the swords were good enough for him.

He walked forward quickly, picking up the Horned Electric Python beast card from the ground.

After a closer look, Zhang Che couldn’t help but widen his eyes, and his jaw fell loose.

It was actually a weapon-type beast card!

Zhang Che felt a surge of excitement. He held the beast card between his palms, triggering spiritual resonance with it. Afterwards, he stashed it in his spiritual sea and branded his spiritual imprint on it. With a burst of will, a five-colored ray shot out, materializing into a foot-long spiral horn with countless purple patterns on it.

He shifted his gaze to a fern a few dozen meters away. As he willed it, a dazzling electric light shot out from the tip of the horn, striking the fern and instantly turning it to ash.

“Ha, I didn’t expect such a surprising harvest!”

Zhang Che was in a great mood!

Practically speaking, the beast card would display more power if it was an Original Combat Body-type card. After all, as a mid-tier legend-quality beast, the Horned Electric Python’s basic strength wouldn’t be anything to laugh at.

However, how could it compare to the feeling it gave as a weapon?

As long as Zhang Che was being a little more stealthy, his enemies wouldn’t realize the danger it posed when he brought it out. He could then make use of the opportunity to shoot out lightning as an underhanded move or something. It couldn’t feel any better than that!

Zhang Che toyed with it indulgingly for some time before stashing the Horned Electric Python back into his spiritual sea.

With this unexpected gain, Zhang Che had another method of attacking. He was truly happy. He even wondered if there was any unique object in the ravine that drew the Horned Electric Python to use this place as its nest.

After all, under normal circumstances, exotic beasts at such a level wouldn’t stay at the same place for a long time, unless there was something that greatly benefited them.

Take that giant stone man, for example. It stayed in that mountain with almost no vegetation for such a long time. It was surely because the environment was greatly beneficial to its growth.

“It is totally worth looking around here...”

A glint shone in Zhang Che’s eyes. With a wave of his hand, every one of his babies were summoned, spreading out grandly in the ravine.

He only gave an extremely simple command to his babies: inform him immediately if they discover anything unusual.

Zhang Che wasn’t worried about them getting into any danger.

The only exotic beast here was slain by him. There wouldn’t be any other creatures here in the short run.

Of course, Zhang Che didn’t forget to have the frisky monkey activate its skill, scanning the surrounding five kilometers to see if there were any spiritual herbs nearby.

The results were disappointing, however. The Horned Electric Python didn’t choose to nest here because of a spiritual herb. The frisky monkey didn’t discover anything after using his skill.

“In that case, maybe it’s minerals?...”

—

Time slowly passed. Although his babies discovered quite a few strange places, after Zhang Che went to investigate every one of them, he realized nothing turned out to be useful. They merely looked unusual.

In the end, it was thanks to the Purple Crystal Tortoise’s unique talent that they found the Horned Electric Python’s cave. Zhang Che finally discovered something there.

Seeing the pieces of crystals with sparkles of purple flashing in it which the Purple Crystal Tortoise “retrieved” from within the mountain, Zhang Che looked through the memories left behind by his predecessor, but was unable to find any information that matched them.

In the end, he could only stow the pile of purple-colored crystals into the Purple Crystal Tortoise’s spatial pocket with some regrets, and wait until he returned to Hua Xia to ask his father-in-law to take a look at it. Perhaps he would recognize what the crystals were.

However, no matter what it was, Zhang Che knew that these crystals were likely to be needed to concoct cultivation fluid for the Horned Electric Python.

The sky had yet to turn fully dark, but it was unsuitable for Zhang Che to continue on his journey.

Having just acquired a new toy, Zhang Che was eager to get familiar with it. Thus, he rode the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon and flew around within a couple dozen kilometers. Whenever he saw any weak exotic beasts, a devious smile would appear on his face.

Going forward, glaring electric light would flash in the mountain range from time to time. Exotic beasts would cry out miserably following the flashes...

When the sky was about to turn fully dark, Zhang Che finally returned to the ravine, feeling satisfied. After enjoying a meal of roasted meat prepared by the Scarlet Flame Drake with the frisky monkey, Zhang Che went into the body of the mountain to rest.

After his earlier experiments, Zhang Che had a good grasp on the Horned Electric Python’s strength.

First, its normal attack. Exotic beasts below mid-tier were basically unable to withstand a single flash of lightning, and would directly turn into a streak of light from the shock.

For mid-tier exotic beasts, as their quality increased, it was unable to kill gold-quality beasts in one strike. However, they would be severely injured.

As for the more powerful Chain Lightning skill, even five-star dark gold-quality beasts were unable to resist it when struck. The weaker ones would even be killed directly.

Zhang Che was incredibly satisfied, and at the same time, thankful. Luckily he had put on the Purple Crystal Armor before he entered the ravine, or he would have been turned into ash by the Horned Electric Python immediately!
