Before Zhang yiu, the Abyss Giant Spider Hatchling lay on the ground, letting out soft whimpers. It was clear that it seed to be begging Zhang Yue for rcy.
Cherry acted as the interpreter and said to him, "Master, it says that it knows you humans are searching for the Beast rchant everywhere. In the Beast Kingdom, there's a place where a Beast rchant is imprisoned."
"It says that if you spare its life, it will take you to that Beast rchant."
"Beast rchant?" he was intrigued.
He said to the spider hatchling, "Take to see it."
The Abyss Giant Spider Hatchling stared at Zhang Yue, confused. Clearly, it didn't understand what Zhang Yue was saying.
At this mont, Cherry translated for Zhang Yue, "My master says he is willing to spare you. Now take him to the Beast rchant imdiately."
Hearing it from Cherry, the hatchling understood.
It imdiately got up and ran toward the southeast of Beast Island.
Zhang Yue called Cherry back into the Demon Contract and followed the spider hatchling.
After leaving Beast Island and heading southeast for about half an hour, we arrived outside a massive dark lair. The spider hatchling stopped there.
From the looks of it, the Beast rchant ntioned by the spider hatchling was likely inside this lair.
The spider hatchling looked at Zhang Yue pitifully.
Zhang Yue waved it off, signaling it to leave.
A man should keep his word. Zhang Yue had no intention of being treacherous.
Besides, it's just a Lord-tier Beast—Zhang Yue can afford to let it go.
Once the spider hatchling was gone, he approached the dark lair.
At this mont, Cherry's voice ca through the Demon Contract again, "Master, I can sense a very powerful evil presence inside!"
Zhang Yue had already sensed it as well. But since he was here, he had to go in and take a look.
Gripping the Void Staff in my hand, Zhang Yue stepped closer to the lair.
Just as he approached, a loud roar erupted from within the depths of the lair.
"ROAR—"
The next mont, a massive black centipede, tens of ters long with legs covering its lower body, crawled out of the lair.
When Zhang Yue used S-rank scouting skills to check the centipede's stats, he couldn't help but be astonished.
"A SSS-rank Beast?"
What surprised Zhang Yue was that this centipede wasn't just a rare top-tier SSS-rank Beast in the Ninth Realm but also a level 60, 9-star BOSS.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[Sky Centipede] (Physical-Type 9-Star BOSS)
Level: 60
Grade: SSS-rank Beast (Suppression against humans: 150%)
Physical Attack: 13,800
Physical Defense: 6,850
Magic Defense: 6,660
HP: 6.25 million
Skills: Sky Escape (S-rank), Dragon Tail Swipe (S-rank), Heaven's Calamity (S-rank)...
Description: A highly toxic giant centipede that is not only the ruler of the land but also the king of the skies...
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Zhang Yue weighed my own stats. With nearly 11,000 magic attack power and a combination of the Void Set and the rare skill Reaper's Eye, giving a total of 70% magic penetration, taking down a level 60, 9-star BOSS would normally be a piece of cake.
But in the Ninth Realm, if a Beast's suppression effect reaches 100%, and he doesn't have an Eternal Set to counteract it, it's impossible to defeat it.
What's more, this SSS-rank Sky Centipede has a suppression effect as high as 150%.
Zhang Yue couldn't deal any damage to it.
At this mont, the Sky Centipede let out a roar and launched an attack at Zhang Yue.
Heaven's Calamity!
BOOM!
It spat out a crimson death ray from its mouth, which Zhang Yue narrowly dodged by leaping aside.
The death ray struck the ground, and the aftermath not only pushed Zhang Yue back but also dealt 43,258 damage.
'My health bar dropped by half instantly.'
With the BOSS's 9-star rank, S-rank skills, and the additional 150% suppression effect, the Sky Centipede's damage was insanely high.
To think, Zhang Yue had already dodged its direct attack—this was just the residual damage that caused over 40,000 points of damage.
The Sky Centipede locked onto him again and began its relentless pursuit.
Zhang Yue waved my staff and cast Icefield, sending a frosty blast its way.
WHOOSH!
The Sky Centipede was quickly frozen in ice.
But the damage from the S-rank Icefield skill was completely nullified.
With the 150% suppression effect, the Sky Centipede essentially had 150% damage immunity.
"This is unwinnable."
Summing it up in three words, Zhang Yue quickly retreated before the Sky Centipede could get enraged and left the dark lair.
From a distance, he watched as the Sky Centipede, confirming that the enemy had left, withdrew back into the lair.
"An SSS-rank Beast personally guarding this place... It seems the Beast rchant hidden inside must be of a high level."
Zhang Yue estimated that the Beast rchant in this lair wasn't just SS-rank—it had to be at least S-rank.
Of course, there was also the possibility that it was an SSS-rank Beast rchant.
Zhang Yue began reviewing strategies and found so records:
In the Ninth Realm, D-rank Eternal Sets counter 10% suppression, just enough to neutralize the suppression effect of D-rank beasts.
C-rank Eternal Sets counter 20% suppression, B-rank counters 40%, A-rank counters 70%, and S-rank counters 100%.
"An A-rank set should suffice."
With a 70% suppression counter, the Sky Centipede's suppression effect on Zhang Yue would be reduced to 80%.
Even with only 20% of his output remaining, Zhang Yue was confident he could take down the Sky Centipede.
After all, it was just a regular BOSS without consciousness or strategy—not a god-level BOSS.
With his skills, Zhang Yue could easily make up for the damage deficit.
Thinking this through, Zhang Yue returned to Beast Island.
He decided to complete so tasks and gather an A-rank Eternal Set first.
So, Zhang Yue summoned the Hell Skeleton King, the Shadow Predator, and the Extinction Black Dragon and began hunting Abyss Giant Spiders on Beast Island, collecting their entries in bulk.
Although an A-rank Eternal Set would be enough for Zhang Yue to conquer the Ninth Realm, if he had the chance, an S-rank or higher Eternal Set would be even better.
Higher-ranked Eternal Sets not only have better suppression counter effects but also significantly higher attribute strengths.
The strongest Eternal Set ever found in the Ninth Realm was SS-rank. Its attribute strength was reported to be 1.7 tis that of a D-rank Eternal Set of the sa level and star rating.
Under my relentless slaughter, countless Abyss Giant Spiders were turned into entries and stored in my collection.
In just one night, Zhang Yue had gathered 1,200 entries of Abyss Giant Spiders
Completing the fourfold task of collecting Abyss Giant Spider entries—this efficiency was insane no matter how you looked at it.
Around 11 PM, Zhang Yue arrived at chanic City and claid the task reward from the Beast rchant, Mole.
[Ding~ Congratulations on completing the task [Abyss Giant Spider]. Final task rating: A. Reward: EXP 8 million, Gold Coins 120, Psionic Energy 40 billion, and [Eternal Set Equipnt Selection Box] (Level 55, 7-star, A-rank) 1]
WHOOSH!
A golden beam of light descended upon Zhang Yue.
[Ding~ Congratulations on leveling up to 56! The next level requires 20 million EXP...]
