CHAPTER 33: CHAPTER 33: GO, LITTLE COAL BALL!

The ’Coal Ball’ with just an S+ Growth Level already has such powerful Basic Attributes. What would happen if it were enhanced to SS-level?

All that’s needed is to feed it Spirit Cores to increase its Potential Value.

Through previous transactions, Han Xing’s Spirit Core reserves have already exceeded twenty thousand!

Even if he feeds ten thousand Spirit Cores to the ’Coal Ball’ all at once, he still has plenty left.

If it were another Survivor, they wouldn’t be able to come up with that many in a short time.

Han Xing widened his eyes, excitedly grabbed a handful of Spirit Cores from his backpack, and tossed them all to the ’Coal Ball’.

Coal Ball was also excited, devouring them fervently.

"Eat! Eat all you want; I’ve got plenty for you, haha!" Han Xing shouted excitedly.

However, after consuming over thirty Spirit Cores, ’Coal Ball’ lost interest in the ones on the ground.

Han Xing noticed a change in the pet’s information under the Satiety column.

[Satiety: 100]

"Can’t eat anymore?"

Han Xing said somewhat regretfully, "It seems the idea of rapidly boosting a pet’s Potential Value by feeding it a lot of Spirit Cores at once isn’t feasible."

Pets have their own Satiety, and the amount they can be fed daily is limited, which must be a system limitation.

Shaking his head, Han Xing decided not to dwell on it.

After all, an S+ Growth Level is already incredibly astounding.

Once full, the Coal Ball happily rolled on the grass.

With a smile, Han Xing said, "Now that you’re full, it’s time to get to work."

Hearing this, Coal Ball jumped up excitedly.

With that, Han Xing was already controlling the Sky Island Territory, steering towards other clouds.

Ten minutes later, Han Xing’s Sky Island Territory approached a cloud with an area of twenty square meters.

At this point, a system prompt appeared: "A group of aggressive horned creatures lives here. Enter?"

"Aggressive horned creatures? It seems they aren’t a friendly bunch..."

Han Xing pondered, stroking his chin.

But he was too eager to test the abilities of Coal Ball.

So, Han Xing immediately clicked "Yes."

The clouds dissipated, revealing four gray long-haired creatures with curved horns.

[Horned Sheep (One-Star Creature)]

[Level: LV3]

[Power 8, Agility 10, Spirit 7, Constitution 8]

[Skills: Sheep Horn Charge, Yang Dingtian]

Four Level 3 One-Star Monsters, even for Han Xing, would require utilizing his immense Attack Power to instantly take down two, then defeat each one by one.

Otherwise, if he were surrounded, with his fragile body, he’d soon be trampled to death by these Horned Sheep.

However, at this moment, he intended to let ’Coal Ball’ fight alone.

As a pet, the Void Ghost Wolf ’Coal Ball’ adhered strictly to its owner’s commands, even if Han Xing ordered it to battle a foe as formidable as the Great Demon Monarch. It would comply without hesitation.

The Level 1 ’Coal Ball’ was to face four Level 3 Horned Sheep alone.

Even when facing enemies outnumbering it, it showed no trace of fear.

"Go, Little Coal Ball!"

Receiving Han Xing’s command, the black puppy on the ground instantly shed its naive and adorable expression.

Instead, it slowly revealed a fierce demeanor, baring its fangs.

At this moment, it finally exuded the imposing aura of a powerful creature like a Void Ghost Wolf.

Simultaneously, the four Horned Sheep, upon seeing Han Xing, had their eyes turn red instantly.

They all lowered their heads, aiming their sharp horns, and, with a leap, rushed towards Han Xing.

However, in the next moment, a figure faster than them appeared.

Coal Ball emitted a faint black light, speeding like a black shadow, as it instantly reached a Horned Sheep.

It extended its sharp claws, slashing across the Horned Sheep’s neck.

In Han Xing’s view, the attack by ’Coal Ball’ seemed to leave afterimages.

Swish, swish!

The Horned Sheep only felt a sharp pain, now having two claw marks on its neck.

In the next instant, blood began to gush.

"Baa!!!"

The Horned Sheep let out a painful wail, the remaining three Horned Sheep, hearing the sound, turned their pitch-black eyes towards ’Coal Ball’.

Hostility shifted.

The next instant, they furiously moved, charging at ’Coal Ball’.

Seeing this scene, even Han Xing broke out in a cold sweat for Coal Ball.

He tightened his hold on the Longbow, ready to intervene at a moment’s notice.

However, the ’Coal Ball’ on the ground was not only unflustered, but instead bared its teeth and let out a threatening growl.

Its eyes carried a regal conceit, like a king of the jungle, seemingly ignoring the Horned Sheep.

The three Horned Sheep arrived.

Coal Ball neither dodged nor evaded, once again emitting faint black light.

Han Xing saw clearly that at the moment the Horned Sheep attacked, the sharp horns seemed to pass through Coal Ball’s body, as if assaulting a piece of nothingness, causing it no harm.

"Body of Nothingness!"

Han Xing exclaimed in his heart.

As Coal Ball’s first skill, Body of Nothingness provided it with a 50% chance to dodge.

At this moment, the three Horned Sheep’s attacks all missed.

Indeed, it’s nothing less than a Divine Skill!

In the next instant, with a flicker of black light, Coal Ball bit one of the Horned Sheep’s heads.

Then, extending its two sharp foreclaws, in a speed that created afterimages, it swung its claws.

Swish, swish! Swish, swish!

In a flash, Coal Ball attacked four times, and with its Tearing Bite damage, this Horned Sheep endured five attacks from Coal Ball.

The Horned Sheep instantly had several deep gashes on its body, faintly exuding a black aura.

This was the effect caused by Coal Ball’s second skill, Void Corrosion.

"Baa..."

With a cry of despair, the Horned Sheep fell.

At this moment, traces of blood still lingered at Coal Ball’s mouth, its ferocious appearance even intimidating other Horned Sheep, causing them to hesitate to attack again.

Han Xing also noticed that when Coal Ball moved or attacked, the black light emerging from it seemed to have increased its speed substantially.

Such that its actual displayed speed even far exceeded the attributes on the panel.

"Is it the effect of the fourth skill, ’Void Flashes’?" Han Xing was filled with astonishment.

This Void Ghost Wolf truly caught him by surprise, consistently delivering one delight after another!

Void Flashes directly doubled Coal Ball’s speed, and along with Body of Nothingness’ evasion, Counterattack Spike’s burst, and Power of the Void’s weakening effect.

These skill combinations directly formed a formidable close combat system, lacking neither survival nor burst.

Moreover, ’Coal Ball’ is only Level 1 now; when it reaches Level 6, Level 10, it will unlock the subsequent two skills.

Upon reaching Two-Star, it can learn new Advanced Skills, not to mention the later Three-star, Four-star.

By then, how powerful will an S+ Growth Level Coal Ball be?

Han Xing couldn’t help but be thrilled just thinking about it!

And at this moment, the remaining three Horned Sheep also reacted, launching another attack on Coal Ball.

Coal Ball showed no weakness, turning into a black lightning, weaving between the three Horned Sheep.

Each time it appeared, it would inevitably leave a few wounds on them.

For a moment, blood splattered, and the scene turned somewhat gory...
