Chapter 145: A Turtle, a Fork, and a Shell
The fight between Kang Lin and the turtle continued. Most of her thrusts landed, but the damage they caused was trivial for a rank five beast with such high defense and vitality.
Its head blurred toward her, and she dodged. It was slow to move and couldn’t evade worth anything, but it obviously had some kind of skill that allowed it to snap its powerful jaws forward.
If those caught her, she’d definitely lose a limb if not her life.
“Killing the beast doesn’t matter!” Yang Xiu yelled. “Focus on making your attacks stronger.”
Kang Lin pondered the admonition but didn’t have much time to give it much contemplation as she had to remain alert for the beast’s bite. Soon, though, an arrow coated in ice qi slammed into the turtle’s neck.
The impact did much more damage than Kang Lin expected, considering her experience seeing previous arrows hit. For a moment, the difference confused her.
Then she realized that Yang Xiu had received some form of enlightenment.
Though Kang Lin was happy for her friend making such an achievement and ecstatic for the added assistance in taking down their common foes, it was sometimes more than a little frustrating to fight so closely with such talented allies. They advanced at a simply breakneck pace that left other cultivators feeling inadequate.
“What did you do?” Kang Lin yelled, retreating from the beast as another arrow slammed into it.
“Re-examined what I thought I knew about my qi aspect.”
Of course. Simple as that. Kang Lin rolled her eyes. Why didn’t she think of it herself?
Unfathomable A ranks.
