Chapter 11: Instant Kill
The Black Moon Mountain Range.
Due to the presence of a large number of undead monsters here, the area is perpetually shrouded in dark clouds and is eerily dark.
Scattered tombs, coffins, and broken bones are everywhere.
Faint ghostly fires can be seen flickering around.
At this moment, Wang Chen was at the entrance.
Ahead, after registering their information, several adventurer teams were let through a gap in the city's protective barrier by the staff, allowing them to step into the wild.
This meant they had officially entered the wilderness.
To prevent cities from being attacked by wild monsters, every city and town in Xuanyuan Nation had set up a protective barrier array to block monster invasions.
After a simple registration, Wang Chen also stepped out of the barrier.
His vision blurred briefly.
After a second or two, it returned to normal.
Ignoring the curious glances from the surrounding adventurer teams, Wang Chen plunged into the forest filled with undead aura ahead.
Wang Chen did not recklessly head straight for the depths of the Black Moon Mountain Range.
Instead, he wandered around the outer jungle area first.
The Black Moon Mountain Range seemed to be a popular leveling spot.
As he wandered, he encountered at least ten adventurer teams panting as they fought monsters.
"No good, there are too many people on the outskirts of the Black Moon Mountain Range. Those low-level monsters are quickly snatched up by other adventurer teams as soon as they respawn."
"I need to go deeper, to the inner edge of the Black Moon Mountain Range..."
Wang Chen made up his mind and began running towards the inner area.
The surrounding adventurer teams were stunned to see a lone young man daring to head towards the depths of the Black Moon Mountain Range.
The monsters there were generally above level 20!
Was he courting death?
...
...
After half an hour of focused travel.
Wang Chen had already reached the deep outskirts of the Black Moon Mountain Range, very close to the inner edge.
This area was rocky and mountainous, with few people around.
The monsters inhabiting this area were already level 18 or 19.
Ordinary adventurer teams dared not venture here.
Only those teams with members above level 20 and rich in combat experience dared to set foot here.
Soon...
Wang Chen encountered his first undead monster!
This undead monster was a skeleton.
However, it had no head, wielding a rusty, decayed longsword in its left hand and a broken shield in its right, charging towards Wang Chen.
[Monster: Headless Warrior.]

[Note: A common monster inhabiting the Black Moon Mountain Range.]
With the help of the Identification skill, the detailed information of the undead monster before him appeared in Wang Chen's eyes.
Without any hesitation, he raised his hand and performed a 'Contract Summon'!
Buzz!
Mysterious waves spread out as a complex magic circle appeared on the ground.
The next second.
A Little Azure Python appeared on the magic circle.
To be honest...
Wang Chen could easily defeat this undead monster in a one-on-one fight.
Let's not forget, although Wang Chen was only level 10, his combat skills were extremely top-notch.
Moreover, low-level monsters fought purely by instinct, without any intelligence.
So defeating it was quite easy.
Of course, dealing with one was manageable, but if a group appeared, Wang Chen would have to run.
Additionally...
He had brought the novice equipment he used at school.
Armor of 'Black Iron★★' quality.
And a novice longsword of 'Black Iron★★★' quality.
But the main purpose of this trip, besides leveling up, was to train his beast pet.
"Xiao Qing, attack!"
At this moment.
Wang Chen gave Xiao Qing the order to attack.
"Squeak!"
Originally sticking to Wang Chen, Xiao Qing let out a battle cry upon receiving the master's command.
Then, without hesitation, it dashed towards the Headless Warrior!
'Brutal Charge (F)'!
Boom!
A dull crash resounded.
And as the master, Wang Chen was instantly stunned!
Because...
It fell apart!
The level 18 Headless Skeleton Warrior, under Xiao Qing's brutal charge, collapsed into a pile of bones with a clatter!
A level 10 second-tier beast, smashing an 18-level undead monster in one hit!
Can you believe it?
Wang Chen was completely dumbfounded!
This scene was simply too astonishing!
Even if he were to fight the Headless Skeleton Warrior one-on-one, it would take at least five minutes to end the battle. Undead monsters, especially skeleton warriors, are very tough to cut down.
However...
In front of Xiao Qing, the skeleton warrior shattered upon impact.
Wang Chen quickly came to his senses.
Xiao Qing had awakened the bloodline of the World-Destroying Azure Dragon and was no longer an ordinary beast, with its attributes skyrocketing to 500, far surpassing the undead monsters here, making it normal to instantly kill the Headless Warrior.
It was just that he overreacted a bit.
"Squeak!"
After defeating the enemy with one strike.
Xiao Qing proudly raised its head and let out a triumphant cry.
Then it returned to its master, displaying a 'praise me' expression.
This little fellow probably had no idea how astonishing its attack just was!
This also highlighted the importance of pet loyalty and affection.
Xiao Qing originally had a very timid and cowardly personality.
Generally, upon encountering such a higher-level, ferocious-looking undead monster, Xiao Qing would tremble with fear and dare not attack.
But now, Xiao Qing's loyalty and affection for Wang Chen were at 100%.
So as long as Wang Chen gave the order, no matter how powerful the opponent, Xiao Qing would charge forward without fear, unwaveringly executing its master's command.
"Well done!"
Facing the praise-seeking Xiao Qing, Wang Chen did not withhold his compliments and lovingly patted Xiao Qing's head.
The 'Trait Extraction' divine skill couldn't be used on Xiao Qing temporarily.
Because when Wang Chen tried to extract the incredibly powerful talent 'World-Destroying Thunder Art,' it indicated that 'the pet must reach level 30 to perform the first trait extraction.'
[You killed a Headless Warrior, gaining 300 experience points.]
A prompt appeared on the information panel.
Xiao Qing also gained 300 experience points.
In total, killing the Headless Warrior earned them 600 experience points.
But due to the Beast Master's profession traits, he had to split half the experience with the pet.
This was one of the reasons many people belittled and underestimated Wang Chen when he became a Beast Master.
Other professions would gain all the experience points from killing a monster to level up.
But Beast Masters had to split it, meaning they required twice the experience to level up compared to other professions.
Thus, Beast Masters generally leveled up slower than other professions.
However, this did not deter Wang Chen.
Now, Xiao Qing's strength was enough to crush any monster in the Black Moon Mountain Range!
Need more experience?
No problem!
Just kill all the way!
