At first, Ling Jiu was thinking of sounding them out. If the two dug the pit just for hunting Direbeasts, they would not kill him since he had only fallen into it accidentally.
But now...
Ling Jiu had disappeared from the pit.
“Where is he?”
“Where has he gone?”
It shocked the stubbled man and the skinny man. The next moment, they felt the ground under their feet trembling.
Following immediately, earthen spikes jutted out, piercing at them like lightning.
“Not good! He is an Earth-type Arcanist!” The skinny man’s expression changed. “Quick, Brother Wang!”
“Get the hell out of my sight!”
The stubbled man hissed as he stomped his foot on the ground. The earth stopped trembling and the earthen spikes disappeared instantly. He was an Earth-type Arcanist, too.
“Thanks, Brother Wang!”
The skinny man said. But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the sky suddenly turned dark. He looked up at once and saw a giant hand smashing down at him.
“Brother Wang, help me—”
Boom!
The giant hand came down quickly and smacked the stubbled man before he could react to it. Amid the sound of the cracking of bones, the two died an instant death.
Ling Jiu reappeared. With the snap of a finger, the osmium giant hand turned into a quicksand, rose and surrounded him.
The stubbled and the skinny men lay dead on the ground, all bones crushed, bodies nearly smashed into meat pies by the osmium giant hand.
“Trash! You two were just looking for trouble, trying to kill me with such a level of strength!”
Ling Jiu spat, then found a stick to rummage through their bodies. It did not take long before he found two Dimensional Bags.
“Heck! Even if these two Dimensional Bags are empty, I will still gain!”
Ling Jiu took out a tissue paper and wiped the blood from the Dimensional Bags. After taking a glance, he broke out in a smile.
These were intermediate-class Dimensional Bags with a thousand cubic yards of storage space. Each of them was filled with the corpses of various Direbeasts.
Besides, there were many other things, too.
“How many people these two guys have robbed?” Ling Jiu lamented. He tucked away the Dimensional Bags. Those contents could wait. His priority was the Class 3 Direbeast.
...
Two days later, Ling Jiu climbed to the top of the Taibai Mountain, which was the destination of his trip.
That was right.
His target was none other than the Void Falcons that he had hunted before.
These Direbeasts could fly at high speed and traverse the void, extremely difficult to catch. But he just could not resist them—they were valuable.
The corpse of a Void Falcon worth 150 million dollars.
This would be the most valuable Class 3 Direbeast Ling Jiu had ever hunted.
“Combining the use of the Gravity Arcana and teleportation, I may stand a chance to hunt the Void Falcons. It is worth one hundred and fifty million dollars! How could I not give it a shot?”
Yup.
Another arcana of Ling Jiu was teleportation, which was a Dimension-type Arcana. This special ability allowed Ling Jiu to appear in another place in the blink of an eye. It was the third arcanum that Ling Jiu cloned.
That meant, until now, Ling Jiu already possessed four arcana, namely Shadowform, Earth Manipulation, Gravity, and Teleportation.
He came to the spot where he last hunted the Void Falcons, put the bait in place, then quietly concealed himself.
What he was doing right now was the same as last time. The only difference was, he had to hunt on his own this time.
The chilly gale was howling past the mountain, making the temperature plummet to its lowest point at the peak. Ling Jiu was hiding in the snow, lying in wait patiently. Half an hour had passed and there was still no trace of any Void Falcon.
“Damn it! There is not a soul here, and it is freezing cold here!” Ling Jiu shivered. “I will have to take a break if there is no Void Falcon in half an hour!”
Five minutes.
Ten minutes.
And twenty minutes had passed.
Just when Ling Jiu was running out of patience, shrills were heard coming from the air.
Ling Jiu’s heart missed a beat as he looked up and saw a Void Falcon appear in the sky.
It had obviously spotted the bait on the peak and was now circling in the air, unwilling to leave.
The competition in nature was fierce. Animals risked their lives to hunt for food. They were rarely choosy when it came to food, and would not give up easily. So when this Void Falcon spotted the bait on the peak, it of course did not want to pass it up.
“Come down! Come down, baby!”
As if Ling Jiu’s prayer was answered, the Void Falcon finally descended after circling in the air for a while. It folded its wings and landed in front of the bait, then tore the corpse of the Direbeast with its sharp beak. It was obvious that the bird was hungry.
“This is the time!”
Ling Jiu would not want to miss this opportunity. He willed in his mind and a gravity force six times the normal force engulfed an area of 20 yards in radius.
Yes. It was six times of gravity force.
After becoming a Level 3 Arcanist, Ling Jiu could control as high as six times the gravity force, which was a lot more terrifying than before.
The Void Falcon staggered on its feet. It wanted to spread its wings to balance itself.
The next moment, a shadow appeared.
It was none other than Ling Jiu. He held a sharp alloy dagger in his hand and stabbed it into the eye of the Void Falcon at lightning speed.
As he pulled out the dagger, the blade was covered in blood.
The dagger had pierced through the eye with blood splattering everywhere.
The Void Falcon shrieked in pain and flapped its wings violently. Agitated by the sharp pain, it wanted to fly away from this place.
It could escape death as long as it could fly. But in an environment where the gravity was six times higher, flapping the wings was hard enough. Let alone getting away.
Squish! Squish!
After being stabbed a few times, the Void Falcon stopped struggling, becoming motionless, quiet, and dead.
“Woo-hoo! One hundred and fifty million dollars!”
Ling Jiu clenched his fists in excitement.
This was easy!
This was pleasurable!
This was how money was made!
How he wished he could play a disco song to vent his excitement. But he knew that this was not the time. This was just the beginning. The real challenge had yet to come. He needed to hunt more Void Falcons.
Ling Jiu tucked away the body of the Void Falcon, covered the blood, then went into hiding again. He had a good start. Next, he wanted to keep the momentum going.
Half an hour.
One hour.
A second Void Falcon came as expected.
“Six Times of Gravity Force!”
“Teleportation!”
Squish!
He killed the second Void Falcon.
“Three hundred million dollars!”
“One more time!”
The night fell without him knowing. After working hard for a day, Ling Jiu came out to the peak to take in some fresh air, then went underground again.
With no intention of leaving the mountain tonight, he dug a hole in the ground and spent the night there. Tomorrow would be another Void Falcon hunting day.
He had brought a waterproof cushion and a sleeping bag, good enough for him to spend a night here.
“I have hunted four Void Falcons today. Not half had at all!
“Together with the two intermediate-class Dimensional Bags earlier, I am making a gain of one billion dollars!
“One billion? What a coincidence!”
