I Start with a Mysterious Island-Chapter 119: Are You Kidding Me?! I Was Just Running My Mouth, Why Did You Come to Sanction Me?
"Come on! You idiot!"
Lin Li saw the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast had stopped attacking and immediately started to taunt it.
But this time, no matter how he taunted it, the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast didn’t launch another Superpower attack at him.
"Tsk... looks like you’re about out of Spiritual Energy. Now it’s my turn. Face my blade..."
Lin Li used his Perception on the Spiritual Energy Wave emanating from the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast.
He found that the intensity of its Spiritual Energy Wave had weakened considerably compared to the beginning. He immediately burst into laughter, gripped the Spiritual Longsword in his hand, and charged forward.
"HISS..."
The ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast saw the human charging at it with a weapon. It let out a sharp hiss and lunged to meet him.
Lin Li nimbly dodged the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast as it lunged, its massive jaws snapping at him. In the instant he moved past it, he swung his Spiritual Longsword, aiming for its beautiful, ice-blue body.
"SCHLICK."
"HISS..."
Struck by Lin Li’s sword, the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast let out a pained hiss.
A deep gash appeared where it had been wounded. Blood instantly gushed from the cut, dyeing a large patch of its ice-blue body red.
Having landed a blow, Lin Li pushed off the ground, leaped into the air, and charged the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast again.
"SCHLICK."
"SCHLICK."
"SCHLICK..."
The Spiritual Longsword, glowing with a faint golden Spiritual Light, became a blur of golden light under Lin Li’s swings, landing more than twenty blows on the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast.
"HISS..."
Covered in gruesome wounds, the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast let out a heart-rending shriek of pain.
Now, the look it gave Lin Li no longer held its initial ferocity and coldness. It was filled only with fear and timidity.
"Scared now, are we? Too bad, it’s too late. That sneak attack of yours at the start gave me quite a fright. As payback, I’m afraid you’ll have to die!"
Lin Li saw the fear for him in the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast’s eyes. He watched it with a detached expression and spoke slowly.
The ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast clearly sensed Lin Li’s killing intent. It shuddered, knowing it had to find a way to escape. Otherwise, there was only one outcome: death.
"HISS..."
After letting out a sharp hiss at Lin Li, the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast mobilized the last of its Spiritual Energy, launching five sharp icicles that radiated a biting chill at him.
"WHOOSH, WHOOSH, WHOOSH..."
"Oh ho? So you still have enough Spiritual Energy left for a Superpower attack?!"
Lin Li saw the five icicles shot by the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast. He gave a slight smile, then twisted his body, effortlessly dodging all of them.
"BANG, BANG, BANG..."
The dodged icicles flew past Lin Li and shattered on the ground, adding a refreshing coolness to the area.
"Where do you think you’re going?"
After dodging the attack, Lin Li saw the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast turn to flee. He shouted at it, then stomped his feet, his body shooting forward like a cannonball in hot pursuit.
...
"CHIRP, CHIRP..."
This unknown Otherworld had cicadas, too. They clung to the branches of lush, leafy trees, their irritating chirps seeming to cheer on the blazing sun high in the sky.
"WHOOSH..."
"RUSTLE RUSTLE RUSTLE..."
A strong gust of wind blew past, causing the lush, leafy trees to sway violently.
The tireless, irritatingly chirping cicadas, startled by the violent shaking, all fell silent as if their throats had been squeezed shut.
For a moment, the open field, now devoid of the cicadas’ song, fell into silence.
"HISS..."
A tragic hiss shattered the silence of the field. Following the sound, one would see a Spiritual Longsword, glowing with a faint golden Spiritual Light, plunged into the head of an entirely ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast, pinning it firmly to the grassy ground.
"THUD, THUD, THUD..."
Although the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast had been killed by Lin Li’s single strike, its body continued to writhe, thrashing against the ground.
A few minutes later, the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast that had nearly killed Lin Li with its earlier sneak attack lay motionless on the ground, completely lifeless.
"I can now easily hunt and kill a Tier One Peak Mutant Beast without even using my Superpower."
Lin Li looked at the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast he had killed, a hint of smug satisfaction in his tone as he muttered to himself.
It had been less than a month since he went from an ordinary person to a Cultivator.
Lin Li had transformed from an ordinary person who would turn and run at the sight of a vicious dog into a powerful Cultivator who faced a ferocious Mutant Beast—a hundred times more terrifying than any vicious dog—without a trace of fear.
Such a huge change in such a short time... even for someone as humble as Lin Li, it was hard not to feel a surge of pride...
"Given the situation, I must be one of those chosen ones from the novels... Hahaha..."
Having easily killed the ice-blue serpent Mutant Beast, Lin Li couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
As the saying goes: returning home rich without showing it off is like wearing brocade at night.
Unfortunately, because of the Mysterious Small Island, Lin Li was fated to be unable to publicize his current situation and let everyone he knew learn of his transformation.
So, he could only gloat to himself when he was all alone...
’Sigh, what kind of life is this! I really want to grab a megaphone and announce my transformation to everyone I know... I, Lin Li, am now a very powerful Cultivator.’
Just as Lin Li was muttering to himself, reveling in his own smug satisfaction in this desolate Otherworld, a sharp, malicious cry echoed across the sky.
"SCREEE..."
Hearing the cry, Lin Li looked up at the sky.
The azure sky was like a blue mirror, so clean there wasn’t a single white cloud.
And so, a magnificent figure soaring through the heavens was easily spotted by the creatures on the ground.
Sharp eyes, powerful wings, deadly talons... an eagle. This creature, known on Blue Star as the lord of the skies, also existed in this unknown Otherworld.
This creature soared through the air. The top and sides of its head were black-brown, its eyebrow stripes an interweaving of white and black. Its back was purplish-black, and its chest was densely covered with grayish-brown horizontal stripes.
This terrifying Cyan Eagle Beast, nearly sixteen meters long with a wingspan of almost twelve meters, was now diving like a fighter jet toward its prey, who was staring up from the grassy ground, dumbfounded.
"Holy crap, Second Order Middle Stage! I just casually praised myself as the chosen one, and now they send a Mutant Beast this powerful to punish me...?"
Lin Li, who had been gloating just a moment before, now had a grim expression as he looked up at the majestic and imposing Giant Eagle Beast in the sky.
Because... to make an analogy, the Cyan Eagle Beast now diving from the sky was like one of Blue Star’s most advanced fourth-generation fighter jets, descending with terrifying power...
If an ordinary person were standing in Lin Li’s position, facing the pounce of such a terrifying Mutant Beast, they would probably have been scared into collapsing on the ground.
