Zhang Hao said solemnly to the village chief, "Old man, rest assured, since I have accepted this task, I will try my best to complete it."
"Thank you very much then." The village chief was greatly pleased.
The village chief arranged for a strong Middle-aged man to take Zhang Hao to find the two monsters.
Zhang Hao was thinking about the Fire Cloud Beast along the way. According to the village chief, the two Fire Cloud Beasts should be a male and a female.
When the Middle-aged man brought Zhang Hao to the edge of the Small Woods, he dared not go any further. He said to him timidly, "Young Master, I will only take you this far. Any further, I will..."
Hearing this, Zhang Hao immediately understood. He said to the Middle-aged man, "Then you go first! I'll go in myself."
"Then be careful, Young Master!" The Middle-aged man felt as if he had been granted amnesty.
After the Middle-aged man left, Zhang Hao entered the Small Woods. The Small Woods was not large, only about five hundred meters in circumference.
The surroundings were lush and green, with towering trees growing continuously, and the vegetation was very dense.
Zhang Hao was also very careful along the way. The records about this Fire Cloud Beast in his mind were like this: It is of the fire element, its nature is cunning, and it likes to enter in pairs and come out.
This Fire Cloud Beast also belongs to the Wang Beast level. It is very intelligent, will also ambush people, and even feeds on human flesh. Zhang Hao dared not be careless.
Suddenly, Zhang Hao felt a dangerous aura rise in his heart. He involuntarily stopped his steps.
"Ow!"
A fiery shadow descended from the sky. A fierce claw fiercely tore and clawed down towards Zhang Hao's body.
"Lingbo Micro Step!"
Zhang Hao's figure swayed. He dodged this sudden attack. That claw landed on the ground next to Zhang Hao.
With a "boom!". The claw shadow landed on the ground like a tear. On the ground, it fiercely clawed out a gully.
"What a powerful blow!"
Zhang Hao's heart trembled slightly as he focused on the sudden attacker.
This was a Wang Beast that looked neither like a tiger nor a leopard. Its aura was very strong, its four hooves were on fire, and the look in its eyes as it stared at Zhang Hao was very ferocious.
"Fire Cloud Beast?"
Zhang Hao did not see the other Fire Cloud Beast, proving that it was not here. Moreover, this Fire Cloud Beast seemed to be female.
Zhang Hao smacked his lips and said, "Although Young Master generally doesn't hit women, female beasts are not subject to this restriction."
"Ow!"
The Fire Cloud Beast roared angrily and pounced towards Zhang Hao again.
"Blood God Blade!"
Zhang Hao drew his Blood God Blade and slashed towards the Fire Cloud Beast.
With a "bang!".
Zhang Hao's Blood God Blade struck the Fire Cloud Beast's body, directly smashing it to the ground. However, this strike did not cause much damage to the Fire Cloud Beast. It only hurt it, making it erupt in ferocity.
"Ow!"
The Fire Cloud Beast stomped hard on the ground with its feet, and its entire huge body leaped towards Zhang Hao. It clawed down, its speed reaching the extreme.
Zhang Hao's heart trembled, and he displayed his movement technique to the extreme. The enraged Fire Cloud Beast, engulfed in blazing flames, seemed as if even the surrounding air was about to ignite.
The two sides went back and forth, fighting each other. The surrounding large trees were uprooted by the strength of the two, and the ground became scorched earth. It was pitted and messy.
Zhang Hao did not find many opportunities. The Fire Cloud Beast's scales had strong protective power. He struck the Fire Cloud Beast several times but did not cause much damage to the opponent.
It only made the Fire Cloud Beast become even more ferocious, ignited by him. Its desire to fight became stronger.
However, Zhang Hao was not without gains; he finally discovered the Fire Cloud Beast's weakness. That weakness should be between the Fire Cloud Beast's eyebrows.
Because every time Zhang Hao attacked, the Fire Cloud Beast would subconsciously avoid this position. The intelligent Zhang Hao analyzed this and concluded that this position of the opponent should be its weakness.
After knowing the Fire Cloud Beast's weakness, Zhang Hao was immediately overjoyed.
"Ice Seal Three Feet!"
"Peach Blossom!"
Zhang Hao continuously struck out two blades.
The endless cold current instantly slowed down the Fire Cloud Beast's speed; ice and fire countered each other. Ice condensed on the Fire Cloud Beast's body layer by layer.
Endless blade light formed an invisible cage in the void, trapping and killing the Fire Cloud Beast within it.
The sharp blade light, like a death scythe, cut into the Fire Cloud Beast's body, making it bleed profusely. However, the terrifyingly defensive scales did not cause too much fatal damage to the Fire Cloud Beast.
However, trapped and killed within the blade array prison, the Fire Cloud Beast was also stunned and somewhat disoriented. Taking advantage of this moment, Zhang Hao flashed out, and his Blood God Blade crushed towards the Fire Cloud Beast's body.
"Break for me!"
Zhang Hao slashed down towards the Fire Cloud Beast's body with one strike.
This strike, like a great mountain, pressed down towards the Fire Cloud Beast's body. A blade light tens of meters long fiercely slashed down towards the Fire Cloud Beast's body.
The Fire Cloud Beast roared and also clawed down towards Zhang Hao's body.
With a "boom!" an explosion sounded.
The Fire Cloud Beast's claw was split open. The sharp blade light split down along the Fire Cloud Beast's claws. The Fire Cloud Beast's claws were forced open, and the blade light took the opportunity to fiercely slash onto the Fire Cloud Beast's glabella.
The blade light directly crushed its way in,
"Ugh!"
The Fire Cloud Beast let out a tragic cry. Its head directly shattered into two halves.
"Ding dong! Congratulations, Player Zhang Hao, for killing the Fire Cloud Beast, gaining 500,000 Experience Points, 0 True Qi, and 0 Frenzy Energy."
"Ding dong! Blood Cloud Bead found. Absorb?" The System's prompt sounded again.
Blood Cloud Bead, what Blood Cloud Bead? Zhang Hao's heart tightened upon hearing it, feeling a bit surprised. He didn't know what the so-called Blood Cloud Bead was. Therefore, Zhang Hao silently recited in his heart.
"Absorb!"
A Blood Cloud Bead the size of a billiard ball flew up from the Fire Cloud Beast's corpse and disappeared.
"Ding dong! Congratulations, Player Zhang Hao, Ancient War God Xing Tian Bloodline activated 35%!" The System's prompt sounded.
"What the heck!"
Zhang Hao remembered that his Bloodline was originally only 30% activated, and now it had increased by 5% at once. This feeling was truly wonderful. As long as he activated another 5%, he could activate 40% of the Zhan Shen Xing Tian (War God Xing Tian) Bloodline. Then he would be able to activate the Bloodline's abilities again.
Zhang Hao walked into the forest again. What he was looking for now was the second Fire Cloud Beast. The second Fire Cloud Beast was male, and in terms of strength, it was naturally above this female Fire Cloud Beast. Therefore, Zhang Hao dared not be careless at this moment.
Zhang Hao did not know that after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a larger Fire Cloud Beast appeared beside the corpse of the Fire Cloud Beast that had been killed by Zhang Hao, its expression furious. It roared, its gaze fixed on the direction Zhang Hao had left, its eyes, the size of copper bells, filled with coldness and ferocity. The next second, its figure disappeared from the spot and chased in the direction Zhang Hao had left.
