Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Crack!

The green wind blade easily broke the ice armor on the Diamond Mammoth and buried itself into its body.

.01 second later, it flew out of the Diamond Mammoth’s body. Then, it cleaved all the way into the thick layer of snow on the ground, cutting a deep fissure in it.

Roar!

The Diamond Mammoth froze on the spot as a thin line of blood formed on its neck. Scarlet blood spurted everywhere and gushed like a fountain, leaving scattered spots of crimson on the silvery-white snow!

“Ding! 1 Diamond Mammoth killed. 12.3 billion gold coins gained!”

The system’s voice notification sounded at that moment. It was only at this point that the Diamond Mammoth’s head finally separated from its body. It crashed onto the ground with a loud boom, and then it stopped moving.

“Done!”

Meng Lei descended from the sky and landed next to the Diamond Mammoth’s carcass. Then, he gave the order. “System, use Brutal Plunder, and steal the Diamond Mammoth’s ice-elemental magic talent!”

Whoosh!

His Wealth instantly decreased by 2,3 billion gold coins. At the same time, Meng Lei also successfully obtained ice-elemental magic talent.

“As of now, I already own a total of eight types of magic talent—thunder, earth, fire, wood, wind, dark, metal, and ice. I’m just missing water-elemental and light-elemental magic talent now.

“Not bad! I must continue to work hard!”

After gouging out the Diamond Mammoth’s magic core, Meng Lei stepped into the magic circle leading to the 35th level without so much as even a look behind him.

Whoosh!

The world spun, and the environment changed once more.

This time, he had actually arrived at an ocean.

As far as the eye could see, the surroundings were a boundless, endless ocean. The salty, fishy ocean breeze blew and set off wave after wave in the waters. Seabirds soared atop the vast water surface that stretched as far as the eye could see, shrouded in a smoke-like mist.

“Fahai1?”

As he gazed at the vast and boundless great ocean, a smile appeared on Meng Lei’s countenance at once. His hometown had been right by the seaside; one could say that he had grown up stepping on the beaches’ sand, playing with shells, and eating seafood.

Despite entering the working society later on, he would also bring his wife and child to the seaside for playtime every weekend. His emotions easily became peaceful and tranquil just by gazing into the vast ocean.

The ocean was his home!

“Hahaha! I’m home!”

Meng Lei let out a cheer as he tugged the magic robe on him right off. With a leap, he dived right into the ocean, his form staying out of sight for the longest time.

After a long while, Meng Lei finally emerged from the water. His arms reached forward while his legs kicked furiously, his body hitting against the water rhythmically. He was just like a fish darting about at high speed in the water.

First, it was a violent freestyle!

Then, it was a comfortable breaststroke!

Finally, it became an energy-saving backstroke!

After a round of swimming, he felt relaxed and comfortable all over. How awesome!

As he laid on his back on the ocean surface and took in the waters’ gentle caress, Meng Lei felt unprecedentedly relaxed and steady.

The ocean is still the best. If I have the chance in the future, I can consider settling down by the seaside... Meng Lei thought leisurely to himself.

It was at that moment that he suddenly felt a great force in the water. A shadow dived out of the water and came biting toward him with its mouth open.

“How dare a tiny little fish disturb me?”

Meng Lei snorted lightly. Then, he suddenly rose in an upright position, leaving the ocean and flying into the sky.

Splash!

The shadow missed its target. However, due to inertial force, its massive body also ended up flying out of the ocean—it was actually a strange-looking fish with the body of a snake but the head of a shark.

Its huge mouth was wide open, and the inside was filled with ghastly fangs. Tough, hard scales covered its body, which reached as long as an astonishing 20 meters. Every scale was as big as a watermelon.

“Eighth-Grade Magical Beast, Snake-Shark...”

Meng Lei’s gaze swept across the strange-looking fish. Then, a white gust of cold air shot out of his fingertip and instantly enveloped and wrapped around the Snake-Shark.

Krak, krak, krak...

The Snake-Shark was encased in ice in no time. A few breaths later, the savage and mighty-looking creature had turned into a gigantic ice sculpture.

Its scales were arranged row upon row, looking vivid and true to life.

“Break!”

Meng Lei knocked lightly against the ice sculpture.

Crack!

The gigantic ice sculpture broke into bits and pieces right away.

“What bad luck!”

As he gazed at the ocean surface that had been polluted by bits of flesh and blood, Meng Lei lost the mood to continue swimming at once. He put his magic robe back on, and then he began to fly toward the area where the magic elements were the richest.

More than ten minutes later, a small island floating on the great ocean came within view in the far distance. The island was neither too big nor too small; it was only about a dozen kilometers in breadth and length.

Tropical plants grew in sparse amounts here and there on the island. The magic circle leading to the next level was located right in the center of the island, And sprawled on the sandy shore next to it was a gigantic turtle with its eyes closed in repose. It was a golden-yellow color throughout and as enormous as a mountain ridge.

The gigantic turtle laid there quietly, still and motionless. One couldn’t sense much of a powerful aura from it. However, that enormous size did give off a strong sense of pressure.

Despite being sprawled on the shore, it was still 100-meters-tall. A size like that could only belong to a Saint Domain Magical Beast.

“What kind of Magical Beast is that gigantic turtle, Ol’ President?”

“It’s a Titanic Golden-Shell Turtle, a Water-Elemental and Metal-Elemental Saint Domain Magical Beast. It has great strength, and its forte is its defense. In terms of just defenses alone, it’s even stronger than the Diamond Mammoth you encountered earlier.” Ol’ Amos explained, “Therefore, it’s very hard to kill the Titanic Golden-Shell Turtle. Don’t just meet it head-on blindly. You must look for its weakness and kill it in one strike!”

“Alright, I will!”

Meng Lei nodded lightly. Then, he flew toward the little island.

Seemingly sensing that there were intruders, the Titanic Golden-Shell Turtle in repose on the shore slowly lifted its head, and its golden eyes flicked toward Meng Lei.

Whoosh!

Without any warning whatsoever, the Titanic Golden-Shell Turtle attacked right away. The ocean next to it began to surge and churn violently, and a few hydras dozens of meters long soared into the sky and crashed toward Meng Lei viciously.

“Ninth-Grade Spell, Hydra Blast!”

Meng Lei marveled, “As expected of a Saint Domain Magical Beast. Having ninth-grade spells at its fingertips and almost instantly releasing it. However...”

Meng Lei abruptly vanished from where he was. With a few flashing turns and shifts, he crossed the distance of several hundred meters to appear right in front of the Titanic Golden-Shell Turtle. He made a grabbing motion with his right hand, and a golden light ball formed in his palm.

Meng Lei looked at the Titanic Golden-Shell Turtle and said slowly, “First-class spell, Golden Wheel Reincarnation Blast!”

Boom!

A dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth from the golden light ball before it turned into a piercing golden light that shone high into the heavens and deep into the ground. Then, it cleaved furiously toward the Titanic Golden-Shell Turtle’s head.

Whoosh!

The Golden Wheel Reincarnation Blast’s speed was incomparable. However, the Titanic Golden-Shell Turtle was even faster. Its head suddenly retracted, and in an instant, it had hidden inside its tough golden turtle shell.

The incomparably sharp Golden Wheel Reincarnation Blast cleaved against the sandy shore. It rendered the shore into two with a boom, forming a fissure that measured one to two kilometers long.

As a metal-elemental first-class spell, Golden Wheel Reincarnation Blast’s might was not to be doubted. Even if the Titanic Golden-Shell Turtle had peerless defenses, as long as the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Blast struck it, only death awaited it... With the exception of the turtle shell, of course!

However, that old turtle was extremely sly. In the instant that the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Blast landed, it had retracted its head into the shell, causing the attack to miss.

“What a coward1, indeed! It actually ducked!”

Meng Lei was amazed.

At that moment, the Titanic Golden-Shell Turtle’s head reemerged. As it let out a low roar, countless metal spikes glittering coldly in the light suddenly appeared. As though a dense and packed rain of swords, they shot toward Meng Lei from all directions.

It was the Ninth-Grade Spell, Arrow Storm!
