Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 90 Mountain Collapse

The entire river surface suddenly began to boil.

Previously, it was because of the large number of monsters swimming around that it gave people the feeling that the river was boiling.

And now, the entire river surface is truly exploding and boiling under the influence of lightning.

In the blink of an eye, a large number of sea monster corpses floated on the river surface; as far as the eye could see, there were monster bellies of various colors.

Along with it came the aroma of grilled fish.

Jiang Lan's chest heaved violently.

That move, while impressive, also put a lot of strain on his body.

After adjusting for more than ten seconds, Jiang Lan felt that the feeling of being completely drained from her body had eased a bit.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

I won't dare to act so pretentious again.

If you have blue mana, you lose blue mana; if you don't have enough blue mana, you'll probably lose health.

[Sacrificeable item detected: Armored Black Tortoise (corpse). Do you wish to sacrifice it?]

[Sacrificeable item detected: Seagod Beast (corpse). Do you wish to sacrifice it?]

[Items that can be sacrificed have been detected...]

[Items that can be sacrificed have been detected...]

[Items that can be sacrificed have been detected...]

Before Jiang Lan could react, a flood of system notifications overwhelmed him.

Block! Block!

As soon as Jiang Lan had this thought, the system notification sound that had been constantly ringing in his ears disappeared.

Jiang Lan raised an eyebrow. He had only intended to try it out, but he hadn't expected the notification to actually work.

Having possessed the system for so long, Jiang Lan had a general idea of ​​how the system made its judgments.

If there is a monster corpse within the area, a sacrifice will be triggered.

Moreover, even if there are a hundred corpses at the same time, the notification will only be triggered once.

Jiang Lan knew that the reason why that situation had occurred was because the monsters were of different levels and had different tolerances to lightning.

The constant system notifications are due to the sheer number of monsters in the river.

After a moment's thought, Jiang Lan decided not to sacrifice the monsters.

At this moment, he was not far from the combat base. If he rashly sacrificed the monster, it would be bad if he attracted attention.

Anyway, the beast tide is more than just this small one, so we can just go further ahead and hunt some monsters to offer as sacrifices.

With that thought in mind, Jiang Lan picked up the walkie-talkie again.

"This is mostly resolved. I'm going to intercept the other lord-level monsters. Call me if anything happens."

"receive!"

Li Dawei's voice was filled with excitement.

He hadn't expected that Jiang Lan could so easily stop the beast tide all by herself.

This absurd situation was something he never dreamed of.

Now, the countless troops and weapons at the war base have suddenly become useless.

However, despite this, Jiang Lan was only one person and could not possibly block the massive beast tide. Every now and then, one or two would slip through the net in front of the war base.

However, they had no trouble resisting these scattered monsters.

Jiang Lan put down the walkie-talkie, hung it back on her waist, and flew straight into the distance.

The electric light on the water's surface disappeared after flying for about two kilometers.

Instead, there were still countless monsters.

With no one around, Jiang Lan relaxed.

With a thought, the Golden Feather Halberd instantly appeared in his hand.

The halberd, carrying the power to destroy the world, plunged fiercely into the river.

"Boom! Crack!"

The river surface flashed with bluish-purple lightning once again, and a large number of sea monsters floated belly up on the surface of the river.

Ten minutes later, Jiang Lan had lost count of how many sea monsters he had killed, and his location had increased from three or four kilometers away from the war base to more than twenty kilometers away.

"eleven!"

Jiang Lan casually knocked down a monster from the Lord Sea, and silently counted the damage.

He froze in mid-air and pulled out the walkie-talkie again.

"I just killed eleven Lord-level monsters. Can the reconnaissance system tell me how many Lord-level monsters are left?"

"Both ends!" Li Dawei replied quickly. "One end is 1.7 kilometers away in your 1 o'clock direction, and the other end is also in the 1 o'clock direction, 2.6 kilometers away."

"receive."

The density of the beast tide at Jiang Lan's current location has thinned considerably, almost indistinguishable from the density of monsters in a normal wilderness area.

Further on, the river merges into the sea, which is considered part of the ocean.

Following the direction Li Dawei pointed, Jiang Lan flew towards his one o'clock position.

In less than two seconds, his body was suspended above the river.

At the same time, the river beneath his feet churned, as if some enormous creature was about to emerge from it.

Jiang Lan merely glanced down, and the Golden Feather Halberd in his hand burst forth with streaks of lightning, stabbing fiercely towards the river below.

"laugh!"

[Sacrificeable item detected: Mountain-Shaking Whale (corpse). Would you like to offer it as a sacrifice?]

Sacrifice!

This time, Jiang Lan did not hesitate and chose to sacrifice herself.

After all, they had already walked so far that no one would notice the disappearance of a monster's corpse.

Even if someone noticed, with the river so swift, no one could guarantee that the body hadn't been washed away.

[Sacrifice successful. Host has obtained 1 Body Tempering Pill (Mountain-Shaking Whale) and the Secret Manual "Mountain-Crushing Strike".]

Upon hearing the system notification, Jiang Lan raised an eyebrow.

Secret manual?

Unexpectedly, he was quite lucky today. This lord monster was the first monster he sacrificed today, and he unexpectedly obtained the secret manual.

Has my luck really turned around since I came back from the No. 9 ancient civilization site?

Jiang Lan pondered. This manual, called "Mountain Collapse Strike," was clearly the kind that could increase combat power, but he didn't know exactly how much it could increase it.

Let's try the next monster in a bit.

Jiang Lan pondered for a moment, then rose into the sky once more.

At this point, he was already at the junction of the Huangpu River and the East China Sea; a little further ahead, he would enter the sea.

However, Jiang Lan was confident that even if he encountered a King-level monster now, he would be able to escape.

Therefore, without much hesitation, Jiang Lan flew directly in the direction Li Dawei had told him.

Perhaps the monster moved during this time, because when Jiang Lan arrived at the location Li Dawei had just indicated, there was nothing below.

There wasn't even a shadow of a lord-level monster, let alone any.

Jiang Lan stood on the sea and looked down.

Suddenly, he looked up at the distant horizon.

In the distance, a gigantic monster with nine heads could be vaguely seen swimming rapidly away, its speed approaching a thousand meters per second, not much slower than Jiang Lan's.

Jiang Lan glared at him.

This is……

Ran?

Could it be that this beast knows that he has already killed all the other lords?

Despite his thoughts, Jiang Lan didn't slow down at all, chasing straight after the monster.

He still needs to test the newly acquired secret techniques.
