Chapter 75

"We've already reached this point—things can't get any worse."

"Stay close to him! Help him! Whether he's good or bad, our only hope for survival rests on him now."

"Xiao Hu, take fifty children with you, bring the weapons we secretly forged, and go assist him!"

"Understood!"

...

The cave was deep, its bottom unseen.

Qin Han had been chasing for about ten minutes when Nightmare suddenly halted.

Ahead, a space the size of three basketball courts came into view.

At its center, a monster bathed in purple light sat with its eyes closed, seemingly at rest.

The creature resembled a pangolin, its scales shimmering with a violet glow, and crystalline spikes protruding from its spine.

"One, two, three, four, five!"

"Five Purple Crystals! This is a massive windfall!"

Qin Han couldn't help but grin.

The Purple Crystal Beast carried more Purple Crystals than he had anticipated.

Suppressing his excitement, he summoned the Godslayer Bow and equipped the attack-boosting ring he'd bought from the accessory shop.

Sharp Healing Ring: Golden-tier Equipment.

Attack: +39

HP: +50

HP Regeneration per Second: +2

The Godslayer Bow dealt 100 damage, the ring added 39, and his Constitution contributed 1 more.

Total attack power: 140.

With the Martial God Aura doubling physical damage, his output soared to 280!

Nodding slightly, Qin Han drew the bowstring taut like a full moon and activated his skill: Paralyzing Toxin!

A radiant arrow shot forth, piercing straight into the Purple Crystal Beast's skull.

A yellow damage number floated up: -2800.

A second, smaller number followed: -1 (neurotoxin).

Simultaneously, a health bar appeared above the beast's head, trailed by a silver skull emblem.

The silver skull marked it as an Elite Monster.

But Qin Han knew better—such legendary creatures couldn't be judged by mere labels.

The Purple Crystal Beast had spent years devouring gold ore, evolving its body to near-indestructibility.

Its defense was terrifyingly high.

Moreover, this nearly energy-embodied monster was practically immune to elemental or toxin-based damage.

To put it bluntly, even if five thousand level-20 Advanced Profession players ganged up on this beast, they'd likely fail to kill it.

Without the Godslayer Bow, Qin Han would've fled without hesitation, staying as far away as possible.

"Moo! Moo!"

The awakened Purple Crystal Beast roared in pain.

Who dared disturb its slumber?

Such audacity!

It tried to lift its head to locate the attacker, but its usually nimble body felt sluggish—the simple motion took several times longer than usual.

Qin Han smirked from afar.

The neurotoxin was taking effect.

The King Viper's venom lived up to its reputation.

Though the Paralyzing Toxin couldn't deal real damage, it impaired the beast's neural responses, slowing it ever so slightly.

A golden opportunity!

Wasting no time, he rapidly fired arrows, each strike chipping away at the beast's thick health bar.

Inside the cave, the wounded Purple Crystal Beast bristled, its scales flaring violently.

With a powerful push from its feet, the massive beast charged toward Qin Han with the speed of a car. Seeing this, Qin Han swiftly dodged while riding Nightmare, yet even so, he was nearly hit.

"What a monster! Despite its enormous size, it’s incredibly fast—and this is after my neurotoxin attacks have slowed it down!"

"If not for Nightmare, I wouldn’t have been able to dodge at all!"

With no other choice, Qin Han activated the newly acquired passive skill from the Witch Poison Pearl—Poison Barrier Aura!

(Once activated, enemies within a 100-meter diameter will suffer continuous toxin damage, losing 100 points per second, while their movement speed is reduced by 50%.)

"Let’s hope this slows the Purple Crystal Beast down even further! Otherwise, I’ll be hit sooner or later!"

Inside the cavern, the Poison Barrier Aura spread out.
