Chapter 76
A faint pink mist instantly enveloped the area within a hundred-meter radius. The Purple Crystal Beast sniffed the air but seemed entirely unaffected. It turned its head and charged toward Qin Han once more, like a massive truck. The entire sequence left him no room to catch his breath.
"Nightmare, flank it, flank it!"
The agile Nightmare barely dodged the beast's attack yet again. However, Qin Han's sharp senses picked up on something—the Purple Crystal Beast's movements had slowed ever so slightly compared to before.
Even if the effect was minuscule, it was still good news. He hadn’t expected the Poison Barrier Aura’s slowing effect to work fully on a legendary monster like this. A slight reduction in speed meant the chances of getting hit had decreased, at least marginally.
Steeling his nerves, Qin Han continued maneuvering Nightmare in wide arcs while relentlessly firing precise shots with the Godslayer Bow.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Thud! Thud! Thud!
Countless damage numbers floated above the Purple Crystal Beast’s head as its HP steadily dropped. Gradually, its health was whittled down to half.
Boom!
At that moment, the massive body of the Purple Crystal Beast collapsed to the ground. The air grew heavy with an oppressive atmosphere. From within its enormous frame, eerie purple light began pulsing outward.
"Ordinary elite monsters don’t undergo transformations. This thing seems to be entering a second phase!"
Seeing this, Qin Han immediately urged Nightmare to put as much distance between them and the beast as possible. At the same time, he hastily consumed another Red Snake Fruit. His HP surged by 1,000, and with the additional 1,000 from his runes, his total HP now stood at a reassuring 2,000.
On the ground, the Purple Crystal Beast’s body began undergoing a drastic transformation. Its form elongated, its claws grew sharper, and even antlers sprouted from its head. Its eyes turned a deep, furious red.
"Moo!"
The transformed beast swung its massive tail, scanning the surroundings for Qin Han. In a sudden turn, their eyes locked—enemies meeting face to face, their hatred flaring. The Purple Crystal Beast’s pupils burned with rage, shifting from red to a deep violet.
Then— Two beams of purple light, like lasers, shot straight toward Qin Han.
Hummm!
Where the beams passed, they bored two bottomless holes into the solid mineral wall behind him. Had they struck a person, the victim would’ve been vaporized instantly. Fortunately, Qin Han had already dodged the moment the beast began channeling the attack. His Godslayer Bow never stopped firing.
Whoosh! Thud!
Arrows streaked through the air like meteors.
"Moo!"
Enraged by its missed strike, the Purple Crystal Beast leaped high into the air before slamming down with earth-shaking force.
Instantly, an invisible shockwave radiated outward in all directions. The attack was impossibly fast and indiscriminate. Qin Han, caught at the epicenter, was sent flying five meters back along with Nightmare.
A damage number of -1,500 floated ominously above him.
Luckily, Nightmare, being a divine steed, didn’t even stumble. And thanks to Qin Han’s high Resilience, his body showed no signs of stiffness. Both man and horse recovered in an instant.
"So the Purple Crystal Beast has a shockwave attack too? Good thing I ate that Red Snake Fruit—otherwise, that would’ve triggered the Martial God passive for sure."
Qin Han consumed another Red Snake Fruit, and his HP gradually regenerated. Without a moment's delay, he drew his bow and fired arrows, relentlessly whittling down the beast's HP.
The Purple Crystal Beast, seeing yet another failed attempt to kill its target, had now descended into utter madness. Its eyes glowed red as it charged toward Qin Han. This time, however, it was different. As it closed in, its razor-sharp tail lashed out in a sudden sweep. Fortunately, Nightmare reacted even faster—just as the tail swung toward them, it leaped violently, narrowly avoiding a fatal strike.
The mineral wall behind them was not so lucky. With a single devastating tail swipe, the beast carved a deep trench into the solid rock.
Heart still pounding, Qin Han swiftly retreated to another part of the cavern, continuing to kite the beast.
