Swallowing the Stars: Eternal Glory

Chapter 35 Kunlun Mountains
"The White Tiger King? What exactly is his strength?"

Lu Jin raised an eyebrow.

Zhu Xi said, "According to the special instruments obtained from the ancient civilization ruins, the White Tiger King's level has reached the peak of the third planetary stage."

"no problem."

Lu Jin nodded and asked, "When do we set off?"

It's only a third-tier planetary monster, and it has neither inheritance nor equipment. With the advantage of the Radiant Cone, it can be killed instantly without any problem.

"up to you."

Zhu Xi said.

Lu Jin said directly, "Alright, the sooner the better, let's set off now."

Subsequently, Lu Jin, under the pretense of retrieving equipment, returned to his villa and retrieved the equipment from his external storage space.

Soon, at the manor gate, Lu Jin, dressed in black battle armor transformed from the Light Set, carrying a foot-long platinum triangular cone and an SS-class hexagonal shield, boarded the military's flying saucer fighter jet.

The S-class hexagonal shield was made of insufficient material and could not withstand the attack of a King-level monster, so Lu Jin discarded it and asked the old man to get him an SS-class one.

As for the sword and combat uniform, Lu Jin didn't want them.

To hunt down King-level monsters, one can simply use the methods of a controller; there's no need for a battle sword.

As for the combat suit, the Light Set, combined with the passive talent arcane skill 'Radiant Body', already provides an exceptionally high damage reduction effect.

There's no need to dress like most political warriors on Earth, wearing a Black God suit underneath and an SS combat uniform on top, all that fancy stuff.

"Boom boom boom——"

The fighter jet's engines started, it slowly took off, and then sped off towards the northwest.

At the same time, at the Kyoto base city military district airfield, a large, blood-red flying saucer-shaped fighter jet carrying a detector took off and flew in the same northwest direction.

The main gate of the manor.

Watching the fighter jets depart, Lu Yi instructed the middle-aged butler behind him, "Spread the word that all members of the Lu family should come to the manor gate and await the triumphant return of our Lu family's prodigy."

"Yes, master."

The middle-aged housekeeper responded.

Kunlun Mountains.

As night fell, two flying saucer-shaped fighter jets, one large and one small, appeared tens of thousands of meters above the Kunlun Mountains.

Inside the top deck of the large flying saucer fighter jet, in addition to several military personnel, Zhu Xi and his two companions, along with Lu Jin, were also gathered.

At this moment, the large screen in front of the four people was filled with a huge mountain topographic map, which was covered with a large number of yellow dots of varying shades, as well as a very conspicuous red dot near the edge.

"Councilor Lu, the 'Sky Eye' detector unearthed from the ancient civilization ruins can detect the distribution of monsters within a radius of 100 kilometers."

The yellow dot represents a Lord-level monster, while the red dot represents a King-level monster, namely the White Tiger King.

Our fighter jets are currently hovering more than 60 kilometers away from the White Tiger King's lair.

Zhu Xi pointed to the red dot on the topographic map and said to Lu Jin.

To avoid alerting the enemy, the two fighter jets did not approach directly. After all, the distance of more than 60 kilometers was not far, and they could just fly over there later.

"I see."

After putting on the satellite communication headset and memorizing the location of the White Tiger King's lair, Lu Jin nodded and piloted the hexagonal shield out of the fighter jet.

Immediately, Zhu Xi and his two companions, fully armed, followed in the air.

Just as he was about to speed up, he noticed the three people following him. Lu Jin raised an eyebrow and said, "The three of you don't need to come along."

Councilor Deng shook his head slightly and said, "Councilor Lu's actions are for the sake of China. The three of us cannot just sit idly by in the back."

Not going to follow?

That won't do! If Lu Jin is no match for the White Tiger King, with them following behind, even if he's outmatched, his life won't be in danger.

Otherwise, if Lu Jin were to fall into the hands of the White Tiger King, it would not only be a loss for the Lu family, but also a loss for China and even all of humanity.

At only sixteen and a half years old, he was able to kill the King-level monster, Silver Moon King.

It's no exaggeration to say that Lu Jin's talent surpasses even that of Luo Feng back then.

China has already lost Luo Feng; it cannot afford to lose another prodigy like him.

Seeing this, Lu Jin pursed his lips and didn't say anything more, but simply increased his speed to the maximum.

"boom--"

With a sudden sonic boom, Lu Jin, like a streak of black light, flew rapidly towards the White Tiger King's lair in the darkness.

"So fast?"

Seeing Lu Jin's flying speed, Zhu Xi and the other two were extremely surprised.

Even a first-tier planetary mentalist flying at full speed might not be able to keep up with that speed, right?

Under the cover of night, a dark shadow carrying shockwaves streaked across the sky at breakneck speed.

Soon, the powerful aura emanating from the White Tiger King appeared within Lu Jin's psychic perception range.

Immediately afterward, sensing the arrival of an uninvited guest moving at incredible speed, the White Tiger King, who was lying in his lair atop the snow-capped peak and was tens of meters long with black and white stripes all over his body, suddenly opened his enormous tiger eyes.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

The next moment, when the two sides were less than two thousand meters apart, Lu Jin had a thought, and a white-gold light flashed in the night sky, shooting out at high speed toward the White Tiger King in the nest.

Feeling that his dignity had been challenged, the White Tiger King stood up, about to roar and display the majesty of the king of the Kunlun Mountains.

The seven triangular cones of light, transformed into platinum streaks, shot out at lightning speed and struck the 'king' character stripe between the White Tiger King's eyebrows with pinpoint accuracy at the same time.

"boom!"

A violent explosion sounded.

The seven extremely sharp triangular cones of light instantly pierced through the tough fur and hard skull, penetrating the White Tiger King's brain and finally bursting out from the back of his head, bringing with them a large amount of blood and flesh mixed with bone fragments.

A peak mentalist with a 7x psychic power amplitude and a 10x gene-based apprentice, whose mental power intensity is equivalent to a mentalist controller with a 4x psychic power amplitude and a level of planetary third rank.

Adding to the extremely sharp Radiant Cone, the White Tiger King, who was unarmed, naturally couldn't withstand it and was instantly blown in the head.

"Boom-"

The ground inside the tiger's den suddenly trembled, and the White Tiger King, who had been so majestic just moments before, collapsed to the ground, gushing out a large amount of bright red blood.

At the same time, a flash of pale golden light appeared, and two pale golden orbs fell from the tiger corpse and then disappeared.

'Double yolk?'

Lu Jin raised an eyebrow.

A portion of my consciousness sank into the external storage space to investigate, and the dropped items became visible.

A planetary-level life essence and a planetary-level third-tier white tiger skin.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

With a whooshing sound, the seven triangular light cones that had killed the White Tiger King flew back.

"Congratulations to Councilor Lu on killing the White Tiger King! Soldier Li Yang salutes you!"

At that moment, an excited voice came through Lu Jin's communication headset.

The moment the White Tiger King was shot in the head, the Sky Eye detector, carried in a UFO fighter jet more than 60 kilometers away, immediately detected that the White Tiger King had been killed by Lu Jin.

In other words, the military only has this one Sky Eye detector, and its detection range at any given time is relatively limited; otherwise, all the world's king-level monsters could be monitored at all times.
