"Ding! Killed ordinary Monster 'Steel Shield Water Demon', gained experience x79764"
Killing a Monster of the same level only contributed nearly 80,000 experience points. This was still with the dungeon difficulty bonus and Guild BUFF bonus.
This game is forcing players to fight Monsters above their level, otherwise the gains will be very low.
After killing one Monster, Li Xiang glanced at his panel and put all 20 unassigned free attribute points into Strength.
Physical attack increased, reaching 20333~22074.
He continued to swim forward. After a few seconds, Steel Shield Water Demons appeared again.
This time, there wasn't just one, but over a dozen.
It seems the previous Steel Shield Water Demon was just there to let players get familiar with the Monster's attack rhythm.
Looking at the dozen or so Steel Shield Water Demons in front of him, Li Xiang directly activated a skill.
Group Fire!!!
Instantly, flames rose from the water.
All dozen or so Steel Shield Water Demons were within the skill's 6x6 range!!!
Dense damage values popped up.
-43772
-44011
-43918
...
Three seconds later, all the Steel Shield Water Demons were dead, contributing over a million experience points to Li Xiang.
Several pieces of equipment dropped as well. He glanced at them; they were all level 35 equipment, almost all white-grade equipment, with only one being black iron grade equipment, which had decent attributes.
After picking them up and putting them in his backpack, Li Xiang immediately continued swimming forward.
After killing a few more waves of Monsters, a massive island appeared in front of him.
Narration appeared.
【Brave adventurer, you actually broke through the blockade of the Steel Shield Water Demons, truly impressive...
However, the island ahead is blocked by a more powerful Water Serpent. Can you defeat it?】
As this narration appeared, the water area ahead vibrated violently, like boiling water.
Li Xiang knew that the first stage's BOSS was about to appear!!!
Sure enough, as a large number of bubbles appeared on the water surface, a massive Water Serpent emerged from underwater.
Its appearance was extremely similar to the Steel Shield Water Demon, except it held an extra shield compared to the ordinary Steel Shield Water Demon.
Beside it, over a dozen Steel Shield Water Demons also emerged.
Check Attributes!!!

【Commentary: The Chieftain among Steel Shield Water Demons, possessing extremely strong single combat ability, an exceptionally outstanding Water Serpent!!!】
"Level 40 Bronze BOSS... these attributes are worthy of the difficult difficulty!!!"
If ordinary players came to fight, it would be impossible to win...
Li Xiang directly raised the storm divine sword and activated his ultimate skill.
Wind and Thunder Descend!!!
A massive thundercloud gathered overhead.
Boom!!!
The thunder fell directly onto the Steel Shield Water Demon Chieftain.
Thunder and electric arcs constantly surged and flashed across its body.
Extremely high damage values popped up.
-2981600
The BOSS's health bar was instantly emptied just after it emerged and hadn't even taken a few breaths of fresh air.
"Ding! Killed Bronze BOSS 'Steel Shield Water Demon Chieftain' above level, gained experience x3330569, BOSS points x2"
The remaining dozen or so Steel Shield Water Demons were bewildered.
They were just minions sent out to die, but their Guild Leader was instantly killed in one encounter.
Li Xiang directly charged into the Steel Shield Water Demon group, used War Taunt, and attracted the aggro of all the Steel Shield Water Demons.
Then, he started slashing wildly!!!
Normal attacks turned into area attacks!!!
-32147
-31999
-32218
...
A few seconds later, the ground was covered with the corpses of Steel Shield Water Demons.
Li Xiang began to clean up the battlefield.
213 crystal coins, 188 gold coins, four pieces of level 40 equipment, three of which were Bronze grade, and one was Silver grade.
The rest were some materials.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Li Xiang immediately swam towards the island.
...
Outside the dungeon, many players were watching the "Water Serpent's Calamity" dungeon progress ranking.
In six minutes, the progress reached 32%!!!
All the players watched anxiously.
32% progress means there's a BOSS ahead!!!
"Demon Hand has already reached 60%, they're about to fight the second BOSS!!!"
"Qu Ming Ju has started fighting the first BOSS!!! It's a difficult difficulty BOSS, I wonder if Lord (polite form of address) can beat it..."
"Qu Ming Ju... keep going!!!!"
"You guys are so stupid. This is a difficult difficulty BOSS, its health is at least over a million!!! No matter how strong he is, it'll take a while to beat, right?
By the time he finishes the BOSS, Demon Hand will have already passed the second BOSS..."
"Brother, why do your words consistently sound like you're not optimistic about Qu Ming Ju? Are you from China? I even suspect you're a walking 500,000!"
"I'm just considering the situation from a broader perspective... why are you yelling randomly?"
"Holy cow, are you asking for a fight?! How are you talking?!"
"..."
Just as the argument was about to escalate, the ranking moved.
It instantly rose from 32% to 37%!!!
"He passed!!!!"
"Qu Ming Ju passed it!!!"
"37%!!!"
"What are you happy about? It's only 37%!!! Demon Hand is already at 61%!!!"
"Holy cow, you really are a walking 500,000!!! Brothers, get him!!!"
"..."
Inside the dungeon, Li Xiang landed on the island.
Narration appeared.
【Brave adventurer, you defeated the Steel Shield Water Demon Chieftain, proving your strength... However, there are many dangers on the island, hiding many crises. Can you pass through?】
As this narration appeared, Li Xiang also knew the next task was to pass through the island.
There were many plants on the island, and they were all tall and dense.
After Li Xiang entered, he got lost inside after a short while.
Fortunately, there were coordinate hints, so Li Xiang headed in the direction of the main coordinates.
He hadn't traveled for long before a sound of something cutting through the air appeared.
Whoosh!!!
It hit Li Xiang.

Counterattack triggered, Counter Blood linkage.

"Ding! Killed ordinary Monster 'Flying Arrow Water Demon' above level, gained experience x199799"
"Hmm?"
Li Xiang looked up and saw a Water Serpent holding a bow and arrow in the distance, releasing the bowstring.
An arrow shot over.

Li Xiang shifted his body, dodging the arrow, then directly charged towards the Flying Arrow Water Demon.
After the distance closed, the Flying Arrow Water Demon started running backward.
Li Xiang activated Charge.
