Chapter 86

**Boom!** It was as if a meteor had fallen from the sky.

The electromagnetic cannon's astonishing power erupted right in the center of the beast horde.

The formidable force of nickel was revealed, and despite being mentally prepared, Lin Feng was still startled by the grandeur. A single cannon shell directly annihilated a large portion of the beast horde, splitting the originally orderly elemental beast formation into two chaotic halves.

"This is the strongest long-range attack of the Ice Lion Adventure Team..." Lin Feng muttered to himself.

Perhaps, Photon had only shown a fraction of his true strength.

*Step!* The Boundless Qi Sea was instantly activated, and Lin Feng decisively plunged into the elemental beast horde on the left side. He was very clear that this was not only the first battle in the Wildlands but also a genuine test of his strength.

In the Ice Lion Adventure Team, the role of the melee attack point was to 'clean up.'

The main attack point was the Lion King, who had super-strong defensive capabilities, and the deputy captain, Ice Rose. The two would hunt the most powerful beings in the beast horde, while the melee attack point's task was to clear the remaining beast generals. Photon was more focused on large-scale attacks, and once the battle turned into a close-quarters melee, the electromagnetic cannon's power would be significantly reduced.

Therefore, even though Yue Meng and Lin Feng had not yet reached the War Wu Zun level, they could still join the Ice Lion Adventure Team.

For the Ice Lion Adventure Team, the need for a strong 'attack' from the melee attack point was not very intense. Moreover, finding a suitable初级战武尊 was not an easy task. Most War Wu Jiangs already had their fixed teams, and War Wu Zun experts even more so.

"His reaction speed and mental fortitude are no less than Yue Meng's," Shi Shi observed.

Shi Shi was well aware of Yue Meng's strength, but for Lin Feng, whom Yue Meng had recommended, Shi Shi had some reservations.

Even though Lin Feng had once defeated the Emperor of the Crown Elite Academy, it didn't mean much. Even the weakest member of the Ice Lion Adventure Team, Flea, could defeat so-called super geniuses.

Strength did not equate to combat power.

Seeing is believing!

"Oh?" Suddenly, Shi Shi's eyes lit up.

What he saw was Lin Feng moving like a wave, each move displaying the demeanor of a War Wu practitioner, without any hesitation. Each strike was lethal, his movements fluid, and his killing decisive, showing no signs of being a newcomer. In a short time, half of the elemental beasts on Lin Feng's side had already fallen.

Extremely efficient!

Ice Rose's eyes also brightened slightly.

On the left, the elemental beast horde where Lin Feng was had been reduced to half; on the right, the horde where Yue Meng was still had three-quarters remaining.

The difference was clear.

At this moment, Xia Ling had just recovered, wielding a Yu-series light sword, and the niobium force rose like a mist, heading towards Yue Meng.

...

"Raging Shark Bite!"

"Submerged Dragon Sturgeon!"

Lin Feng continuously used these two moves, immersed in the beast horde.

His body movements were as relaxed as a small fish swimming, and the operation of the Boundless Qi Sea was like swimming in the ocean. In battle, Lin Feng was comprehending the essence of the blade techniques. Although he had perfectly mastered the first and second moves of the Seven Spiral Slash, the third and fourth moves were still at the 'proficient' level.

Initial understanding, proficient, perfect.

Three levels of blade technique essence. Although the second level of proficiency was already quite strong, it still fell short of the perfect blade intent.

The proficient third and fourth moves were not as powerful as the perfect first and second moves.

However, at this moment, they were more than enough to deal with the current batch of elemental beast generals.

*Swish!* *Chop!* Lin Feng quickly resolved the dozen or so elemental beasts on his side, clean and efficient. His gaze then turned to the right, where Yue Meng had already activated the first level of Blood Transformation Cobalt, fully unleashing her Violent Lemon strength, each move displaying astonishing power.

Beside Yue Meng, Xia Ling's body seemed to have become ethereal, transforming into a grayish-white mist.

It was hazy and strange, and the Yu-series light sword in her hand was unleashing its power, engaging in intense combat with several初级 elemental beast generals.

"Special element 'niobium,' B-level elemental heart..." Lin Feng's eyes brightened.

Very curious!

The ability to merge her body into the mist was a rather unique elemental ability, no wonder the deputy captain said that in terms of escape skills, no one could match Xia Ling.

Only B-level and above elemental hearts possessed special elements.

Suddenly—

"Trouble!" Lin Feng's heart jolted.

It was a 'cold light' hidden in the giant beast horde, concealed on the protruding back of a heteropotamus. A bright light suddenly appeared in the dense crystalline structure, aiming directly at Xia Ling. It was the Bamboo Light Rat, known for its agility and cunning, with a magnesium crystal core!

*Whoosh!* Lin Feng shot out.

His reaction speed was not slow, but the Bamboo Light Rat was even faster, its sharp claws slicing through Xia Ling's throat like a dagger.

Its small, hidden form on the giant heteropotamus was extremely difficult to spot.

Too late!

*Swish!* A sound broke the air, and Lin Feng's heart jolted.

It was a red light, cold and deep, like a rose blossoming. In an instant, the Bamboo Light Rat was pierced, its body seemingly encased in ice, falling to the ground with the red light.

*Crack!* It shattered, like a cold rose.

Lin Feng turned his head and looked into the distance.

There was a woman holding a transparent ice bow, the bowstring fully drawn, her face as cold as ice.

The deputy captain, Ice Rose!

"Such terrifying archery skills." Lin Feng was chilled to the bone, hearing only the arrow's sound but not seeing its shadow.

If that arrow had been aimed at him, what would have happened?

"This is the top three archer in Sunset City, an eight-star adventurer!" Lin Feng was amazed.

Terrifyingly strong!

...

The battle ended cleanly and efficiently.

Lin Feng, Photon, Yue Meng, and Xia Ling each collected the crystal cores, the most valuable material from ordinary elemental beasts. Unlike the Wilderness Zone, where almost all crystal cores were E-level, in the Wildlands, E-level crystal cores were less common, with many being D-level and C-level. Although elemental beasts lacked intelligence, they had instincts.

With D-level and C-level crystal cores, they were naturally better than E-level.

E-level crystal cores were cheap, but D-level and C-level prices started to rise.

*Zzzt!* *Ssssh~* Swift and precise knife skills, Lin Feng watched as Flea, one hand wielding a curved knife and the other a dagger, instantly dissected a giant heteropotamus, extracting the complete potassium crystal, fur, and even the difficult-to-remove spine in less than five seconds.

"Dissecting a cow, nothing more." Lin Feng was impressed.

The collection of materials in Flea's hands seemed to turn into an art.

A hunter was an indispensable part of every adventure team.

In as little as two to three seconds, and at most nearly ten seconds, materials from over forty elemental beasts were all collected, including ten that had already been shattered by Photon.

"Fifteen crystal cores, one C4, one D4, two C5..." Lin Feng calculated in his mind.

Crystal cores, like elemental hearts, were divided into the most common E-level, ordinary D-level, and good C-level, based on purity. When beasts consumed elemental crystals, crystal cores would form in their bodies, turning them into elemental beasts. For example, with D-level elemental crystals, the crystal cores of Beast Soldier level were D9, D8, D7, those of Beast General level were D6, D5, D4, and those of Beast King level were D3, D2, D1.

The smaller the number, the higher the purity of the crystal core.

Of course, the greater the power, similar to the continuous advancement of a gene warrior's elemental heart.

Above D1, the crystal core reached its limit, and to break through, it would need to advance to an elemental heart, transforming into a monster. In the Wildlands, there were also natural elemental hearts, and if a beast consumed an elemental heart, it would undergo a mutation, gaining intelligence and becoming an elite elemental beast.

"One C4 crystal core is 1 gold coin."

"C5 crystal cores, two for 1 gold coin, D4 crystal core 10 silver coins..."

The grade of the crystal core was more important than the level.

Fifteen crystal cores, nearly 3 gold coins.

The result of the calculation surprised Lin Feng. That day in the Ruins World, excluding the elite Snowlight Deer and rare earth erbium, he had earned only 301 silver coins. Now, just one battle had already approached this number.

In one-on-one kills, he could obtain all the crystal cores, while the materials from the elemental beasts' bodies belonged to the team.

"A high-level Ancient Wu Jiang can earn nearly 100 gold coins per month in the Ruins World."

"But a初级 Ancient Wu Zun, entering the Wildlands, can earn over 1000 gold coins per month."

"Ten times the difference!"

At this moment, Lin Feng finally understood.

This was the difference between the Ruins World and the Wildlands.

A world of difference.

"According to Yue Meng, we can earn 50-100 gold coins per day."

"In a month, it would be around 1500 to 3000 gold coins, and in twenty days, it would definitely exceed 1000 gold coins." Lin Feng's eyes shone brightly. The speed of earning money was terrifying, and this was one of the reasons he joined the Ice Lion Adventure Team.

Twenty days, earning 1000 gold coins.

To treat Ali!

...

(Roar! A request for recommendations, only three days left in the public period. Xiao Xiao is about to enter a frenzied battle state, roar~)
