A God-tier Counter-damage Priest, I am the Master!

89: Obtain the Netherworld Treasure BoxThe moment his invincibility state dissipated, Ku Ya’s face turned pale instantly. His body seemed to lose control as he was violently pulled down from mid-air by a powerful force, falling heavily into Bai Tian’s hands.

He struggled, his voice betraying a hint of nervousness: ”Brilliant... Brilliant, let’s talk this out!”

As the second strongest player in the Taina Server Region, Ku Ya’s strength was naturally extraordinary.

Almost the instant he fell into Bai Tian’s hands, he quickly activated a control-clearing skill, turned his body, and retreated rapidly while attempting to communicate with Bai Tian.

However, Bai Tian was not surprised by Ku Ya’s ability to quickly break free from control.

Between experts of this level, having control-clearing skills was inevitable.

With an expressionless face, he coldly spat out two words: ”Talk my ass!”

Before Ku Ya could even steady his footing, and without even a chance to consume a pill, he was struck hard in the lower back by a white light, sending him flying.

That was the powerful skill launched by the Ancestral Return Strange Horse—【Flying Swallow Kick】.

Ku Ya, whose health was already low, saw his health bar drop directly below the danger line under this strike.

”Bastard!”

”Brilliant, you’ve gone too far! I’ll go down fighting!”

A flash of ruthlessness crossed Ku Ya’s eyes; he could see that Bai Tian was already intent on killing him.

Since that was the case, he could only fight for his life.

However, he had no chance to resist.

At the same time the Ancestral Return Strange Horse’s skill hit him, Bai Tian also precisely landed a normal attack, dealing a high damage value of -6214.

However, this lethal damage did not kill Ku Ya.

This was because he was wearing a piece of equipment with a fatal-damage resistance trait.

But this wasn’t Bai Tian’s first time meeting him, and he had already accounted for this. A cold smile curled on his lips as he first applied an 【Evil Mark】 to Ku Ya.

Hit by the Evil Mark, Ku Ya’s expression changed drastically, and he angrily launched a sharp sword qi skill at Bai Tian.

Even if he died, he didn’t want to make things easy for Bai Tian.

However, although his sword qi hit Bai Tian, Bai Tian’s second normal attack also landed on him at the same time.

For Bai Tian, whose defense had increased significantly, this sword qi only caused him to lose a little over two thousand health, which was almost negligible for him.

As for Ku Ya, he turned into a corpse amidst despair and anger, falling to the ground from mid-air.

For those afflicted by the Evil Mark, the death penalty is tripled.

This meant that Ku Ya would not only lose six levels but would also drop six pieces of equipment upon death.

This second strongest player of the Terra Region had been half-ruined by Bai Tian’s actions and wouldn’t be able to recover his strength within ten days.

Meanwhile, the foreign expert who had previously teamed up with Ku Ya didn’t hesitate to flee and sell out his teammate the moment Bai Tian moved against Ku Ya.

But in reality, it wasn’t that this person was afraid of Bai Tian, but rather that he was terrified by the Never Sets hiding in the shadows.

Without even seeing a person, two companions of the same level had been shot dead by Never Sets.

So, how could this person still care about Ku Ya? Escaping first was the priority.

By now, this person had already fled over 500 meters away and was about to disappear from sight.

Bai Tian had no intention of pursuing. Firstly, he had to be wary of Never Sets, who was hiding at an unknown distance, and secondly, of course, because of the Netherworld Demonic Ape.

Bai Tian’s gaze had already been drawn to the massive corpse of the Netherworld Demonic Ape.

How bizarre!

Could you believe that a grand Third Transition Master-level BOSS dropped absolutely nothing upon death, except for experience?

Not even a single pathetic copper coin could be found on the ground.

This was also why Bai Tian didn’t go to pick up loot immediately after killing the Netherworld Demonic Ape, but instead dealt with Ku Ya.

Because there was simply nothing for Bai Tian to pick up.

At this moment, the Little Dragon Zombie had already leveled up to 22. It was like a tiny ant, clinging tightly to the neck of the Netherworld Demonic Ape, greedily sucking its blood.

Bai Tian did not interfere with the Little Dragon Zombie’s behavior. Instead, refusing to believe his luck, he circled the massive corpse of the Netherworld Demonic Ape to observe.

In the end, he speechlessly confirmed that there really were no item drops. This situation practically defied conventional game logic.

The only saving grace was that there was still a ”you tian treasure box” to be obtained; otherwise, Bai Tian would probably be so depressed he’d want to cough up blood.

Even so, Bai Tian still wanted to give the system the middle finger; it was too shameful.

Just as Bai Tian was preparing to climb onto the Netherworld Demonic Ape’s corpse and head toward its chest to try and dig out its heart, a strange change suddenly occurred to the corpse.

Its size rapidly shrank, changing from its original skyscraper-like magnitude into a beast skin that had been reduced countless times in size.

However, beneath this Netherworld Demonic Ape beast skin, there were two unusually bulging spots, as if some secret was hidden there.

At the same time, the Little Dragon Zombie, having drunk its fill of the Netherworld Demonic Ape’s blood, had flushed cheeks like it was drunk and stumbled to the ground at Bai Tian’s feet.

Immediately after, the Little Dragon Zombie turned into a ball of white light and directly entered the pet space.

Following that, the system notification sounded:

——”(Ding-dong)!”

”(Your pet, Little Dragon Zombie, has consumed enough high-level demonic beast blood to meet the evolution requirements. It has now fallen into a 24-hour deep sleep.)”

”(During this period, it cannot be summoned.)”

Hearing this prompt, a look of pleasant surprise appeared on Bai Tian’s face.

The Little Dragon Zombie was about to evolve, which was undoubtedly a good thing.

It seemed that to make the Little Dragon Zombie continuously level up and transform, he needed to provide it with high-level demonic beast blood.

The Little Dragon Zombie, which was originally a 9-star high-rank pet, would at least reach the 10-star Spirit Pet level after evolving.

Bai Tian was full of anticipation for this.

Next, Bai Tian smilingly picked up the beast skin the Netherworld Demonic Ape had turned into, finding a fist-sized bead and a heart full of vigorous vitality hidden beneath it.

——【Low-level Monster Bead】!

(This is a precious, high-grade material for alchemy and smithing...)

(Only powerful Master-level demonic beasts of the Third Transition or higher have a chance to condense this kind of energy essence within their bodies, which hides surging and vigorous vital essence.)

(If consumed directly, it can permanently increase a player’s Intelligence, Agility, Stamina, and Strength attributes by 20 points each.)

——【Netherworld Demonic Ape Heart】!

(Special Item.)

(Can be used to dispel the Nether Heaven Barrier and obtain the you tian treasure box.)

Bai Tian wasn’t surprised that there would be a Netherworld Demonic Ape Heart.

However, when he saw that 【Low-level Monster Bead】, he couldn’t help but be taken aback.

Isn’t this a rare item equivalent to the effects of a Monster Core in novels?

Consuming it directly could increase each of a player’s four basic attributes by 20 points.

However, the description mentioned that it was also a rare material for alchemy and equipment repair.

If it were only used to increase 20 points in the four attributes, it seemed a bit like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

After careful consideration, Bai Tian decided to first put this Low-level Monster Bead into his intermediate qiankun bag, saving it for a more important use in the future.

Then, holding the Netherworld Demonic Ape Heart, he walked toward that mysterious you tian treasure box.

At this moment, besides him, there were only about twenty Great Xia Region players waiting in the distance.

Previously, the S-rank holy skill 【Tiger Roar Shakes Mountains and Rivers】 released by Bai Tian did not distinguish between friend and foe, making all players within 500 meters targets of the attack. This included those Great Xia Region players who had tried to snatch the kill on the Netherworld Demonic Ape; they also hadn’t been spared.

Only these twenty-odd players who followed the rules had managed to survive.

”You guys, come over!”

”All these dropped items on the ground are for you to split.”

Bai Tian shouted to them.

Except for the equipment dropped by Ku Ya and the two experts shot by Never Sets, Bai Tian had no interest in the ordinary equipment dropped by others.

With so many dropped items on the ground, he would treat it as a reward for those twenty-odd people’s proper behavior just now!

Upon hearing Bai Tian’s call, those twenty-odd Great Xia Region players ran over excitedly, scrambling to pick up the equipment on the ground.

Bai Tian, on the other hand, no longer paid them any attention. He took the Netherworld Demonic Ape Heart and gave it a gentle squeeze against the barrier covering the you tian treasure box.

When the heart’s blood of the Netherworld Demonic Ape fell onto the barrier, it immediately turned into a puff of blue smoke and dissipated, and the barrier vanished along with it.

With no more obstacles, Bai Tian excitedly reached out and pressed his hand on the you tian treasure box, successfully putting it into his bag.

Although the whole process seemed simple, Bai Tian had maintained a high level of mental concentration throughout.

Because Never Sets’ previous sneak attack had left him with lingering fears.

It had to be said that this number one enemy still gave Bai Tian a bit of pressure.

Bai Tian understood that in this world full of hidden dangers, a moment of negligence at any time could bring fatal consequences.

Therefore, he had to remain vigilant at all times to ensure his own safety.

Bai Tian was also unsure if the other party was still nearby.

But until Bai Tian obtained the you tian treasure box, Never Sets did not strike again, which proved that the other party had definitely left.

This actually surprised Bai Tian quite a bit.

As the server’s number one Archer, whose attack methods were so sharp and who possessed instant-kill skills, why would Never Sets be wary of him and give up on the you tian treasure box?

However, it was still a bit frustrating because, from beginning to end, Bai Tian had never even seen Never Sets in person.

It amounted to getting beaten for nothing, and in the end, not even seeing the person clearly.

Forget it, he wouldn’t think about Never Sets anymore. Bai Tian looked at the you tian treasure box with a face full of excitement and anticipation.

——【you tian treasure box】!

(This is a unique and mysterious product within the 【Nether Heaven Great Realm】, the land where gods fell. Only the truly strong and those with great opportunity can possess it.)

(Upon opening, there is a 50% chance to obtain an Orange item; a 25% chance to obtain a Treasure-grade; a 15% chance to obtain pets, mounts, or special skills below high-rank; and a 10% chance to obtain Mysterious Fashion, a hidden class change card, or High-grade Pill Recipes...)

(Note! The 【you tian treasure box】 is a forbidden item within the Nether Heaven Great Realm and cannot be opened while inside. It must be opened after leaving the Nether Heaven Great Realm.)

Holy crap!

Is this a joke?!

He had finally gotten his hands on such a rare high-level blind box, but it turned out it couldn’t be opened immediately.

He had to wait until he left the Nether Heaven Great Realm to open it; this was just too exasperating.

Bai Tian almost couldn’t resist terminating today’s journey in the Nether Heaven Great Realm early just to go out and open the blind box.
