Battle for Supremacy Across Realms: From Novice Village to Lord of the Gods

Chapter 43: I'll definitely level up to level 8 today!

The smile on Qin Dilin's face froze instantly, and a sentence escaped his lips.

Seriously, bro? Even the weakest team needs twenty level 10 powerhouses to succeed, and the success rate is still below the maximum?

He wasn't arrogant enough to think he could take on twenty level 10 experts single-handedly; that would be pure self-destruction.

But when he looked up, he saw that he was standing on the Liluo Grassland. According to the coordinates, the Mammoth King was in the middle, not far from him.

Emperor Qin touched his chin, and his eyes lit up again.

Regardless of whether we can win or not, let's go join the fun and check things out first. It can't hurt, and who knows, we might even snag a bargain.

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, Qin Dilin immediately understood, and his steps became much lighter.

He stepped forward, his fingertips gathering a faint light as he lightly touched the giant stone corpse. Pale golden energy surged, and a line of words slowly appeared—D-level talent: Earth Manipulation.

Emperor Qin's eyes shone like light bulbs, and his mouth stretched to his ears in a wide grin.

D-grade talents are already rare, and in such a short time, he's already collected six of them.

From now on, when traversing the secret realm, I'll be able to stand even taller.

Suppressing his elation, he dusted off his clothes, his eyes sharpened, and he hurried toward the mammoth king's habitat.

He couldn't afford to lose this bet, and he absolutely wouldn't lose.

At the same time, the chat channel in the secret realm completely exploded.

The crowd gasped in amazement. Some couldn't believe that Emperor Qin had activated the mission channel, while others inquired about the gameplay. Still others marveled at his hidden talents, noting that he always managed to surprise them.

Liu Xuan and the others stared at the messages on the screen, exchanging glances in amazement. They discussed Qin Dilin's concealment of his true abilities, hoping that he could once again bring honor to the 911 newbie village.

This anticipation ignited everyone's enthusiasm, instantly reigniting their previously sluggish hunting spirit. They were slaying level 5 ferocious beasts and digging up level 1 spiritual flowers and herbs, with everyone putting in several times more effort than before.

On the other side, Emperor Qin kept walking and encountered three level 10 ferocious beasts along the way, which he dealt with swiftly and decisively.

After taking stock, he had accumulated 1470 energy points and 6 distributable attribute points. It wasn't a windfall, but it was still a pleasant surprise.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and Emperor Qin finally arrived at his destination.

Looking from afar, he was immediately stunned. The Mammoth King was surrounded by more than sixty giant elephants, each of them robust and strong with sharp tusks, exuding an imposing aura.

Qin Dilin scratched his head, then his eyes lit up and a wicked smile appeared on his lips.

This isn't adding difficulty; it's practically handing over an experience package.

He wasn't confident he could take on the mammoth king one-on-one, but he was more than capable of dealing with these ordinary giant elephants.

With over sixty heads, let alone reaching level 8 to win the bet, it's enough to level up two more times.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He quickly crouched down and crawled into the waist-high grass, barely daring to breathe, for fear of alerting the snake.

More than sixty giant elephants charged at him together; even with his six D-level talents, he would be trampled into mincemeat.

He squinted and carefully examined the elephant herd, his gaze landing on the nearest giant elephant, and his attribute panel popped up instantly.

Raging mammoth

Level 12, combat power 15 stars

Characteristics: Berserk, Bloodlust, Guardian; Talent: Constitution Enhancement (E-rank).

Skill unknown, drop rate 1.2%.

Emperor Qin's eyes lit up again, and he secretly rejoiced.

A level 12 ferocious beast can provide approximately 600 energy points.

It's much more cost-effective than level 10, and the leveling speed is much faster.

With a thought, he brought up his own level panel: Level 7 (7850/18000).

If I do the math, I can hunt down twenty more of these giant elephants and smoothly level up to level 8.

Normally, it would take six hours to hunt down thirty level 10 ferocious beasts, but this saves a lot of trouble.

The more Qin Emperor thought about it, the more delighted he became. His gaze swept across the herd of elephants, and he quickly spotted a particularly eye-catching giant elephant.

It was a size larger than the surrounding giant elephants, its tusks gleaming coldly, and its aura even more imposing. The attribute panel then popped up.

Mammoth Guardian (Mutant Level)

Level 12, combat power 21 stars

Characteristics: Berserk, Bloodlust, Guardian

Innate physical enhancement (E-rank)

Earth Sensitivity (Rank E)

Skill unknown.

Drop rate 12%.

Emperor Qin gasped, his brows furrowing instantly.

With a combat power of 21 stars, it's even stronger than the previous grassland stone giant; this thing is not easy to deal with.

He glanced down at his combat power panel: 19 stars, the limit, just two stars short. He was no match for them at all.

What made his scalp tingle even more was that there were three mammoths acting as guardians in the herd.

He suppressed his surprise and turned his gaze to the very center of the herd, where a pure white mammoth lay, its body larger than the guard's.

A faint aura of power emanated from him; it was none other than the Mammoth King.

King Mammoth (King-level)

Level 12, combat power 25 stars

Characteristics: Frenzy, Bloodlust, Guardian, Territoriality

Superhuman Physique (Rank D)

Earth Manipulation (Rank D)

Skill unknown.

Drop rate 100%.

Qin Dilin couldn't help but swear, his pupils shrinking sharply.

With 25-star combat power and two D-level talents, this thing is just too overpowered.

He was secretly astonished; his combat power was a full six stars lower than that of the Elephant King.

No wonder the mission prompts that it requires a team of more than twenty level 10 powerhouses. Even without the elephant herd interference, twenty people probably wouldn't be enough.

Even more outrageous is that this Elephant King is the weakest of the Five Kings, making the task of breaking the Five Elements Seal incredibly difficult.

The greater the difficulty, the greater the benefits.

Emperor Qin took a deep breath to suppress the shock in his heart, and his eyes became firm again.

He crouched low, earth-elemental energy gathering at his fingertips, a ruthless glint in his eyes. He didn't care about the Elephant King's protector.

Let's gain some experience first; today's level 8 is a sure thing for me to level up.

Emperor Qin took a deep breath of the grassy scent, crouched down, and gripped the hilt of his knife tightly with his fingertips. He was just one step away from making his move.

While his fighting prowess is inferior to that of the Elephant King, he possesses a multitude of talents, and in a true battle, he might not necessarily be at a disadvantage.

The primary target is the ordinary giant elephants. As for the tough elephant king, we'll pick up the scraps if we can, and if not, we'll put it aside for now. There's no need to fight it head-on.

He had barely moved his foot half an inch when a prompt from the Heavenly Dao suddenly rang in his mind: Liu Xuan had exchanged two level 5 ferocious beast corpses for one of his level 1 steel swords.

Emperor Qin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought to himself, "Holy crap, this is like a pillow delivered to someone who's just fallen asleep."

He suddenly remembered that Liu Yuan had also traded with him when they were traveling, exchanging three Tier 1 spirit herbs for a Tier 1 steel knife.

I was in a hurry to get on my way and didn't have time to deal with it then. Now that I feel my strength is insufficient and I urgently need to replenish it, this harvest has come at just the right time.

He quickly opened the trading channel, and in the blink of an eye, three dewy spiritual herbs and two still-warm beast corpses appeared before him.

Emperor Qin used his True Sight Eye to scan the area, confirming it was non-toxic. He then rubbed his hands together, extracted the essence of the spiritual herb, and swallowed it all.

One spirit herb increases energy by 2 points.

One plant increases strength by 3 points.

There was also a plant whose veins had been strengthened.

My physical fitness also increased by 2 points.

The two ferocious beast corpses then contributed 4 attribute points. Emperor Qin clicked his tongue, thinking that this was a sure win.

He casually opened his personal panel, scanned the latest data, and grinned from ear to ear.
