Global Descent to Sky Islands: Getting a God-level Talent from the Start - Chapter 33

‘Coal’ with an S+ growth potential, already has such strong basic attributes. If it gets enhanced to SS-Grade, imagine the possibilities!

You only need to feed it Spirit Cores to increase its potential value.

Through previous trades, Han Xing’s (Male) Spirit Core reserves have exceeded 20,000!

Even if he gives ‘Coal’ 10,000 at once, he still has a large stockpile.

No other survivors could produce so many in such a short time.

Han Xing’s eyes widened in excitement, grabbing a handful of Spirit Cores from his bag and tossing them all to ‘Coal.’

Coal eagerly devoured them with enthusiasm.

“Eat! Keep eating. No matter how much you want, I’ve got it all here, haha!” Han Xing shouted excitedly.

However, after ‘Coal’ consumed over 30 Spirit Cores, it lost interest in those on the ground.

Han Xing noticed a change in the pet information, particularly in the satiety section.

[Satiety: 100]

“Can’t eat anymore?”

Han Xing said with some disappointment: “It seems that the idea of rapidly boosting a pet’s potential value through mass feeding of Spirit Cores isn’t feasible.”

Pets have their own satiety level, limiting the amount they can be fed each day. It must be a restriction imposed by the system.

Shaking his head, Han Xing stopped dwelling on it.

After all, an S+ Growth Potential is already quite astonishing.

After eating its fill, Coal happily rolled around on the grass.

Han Xing smiled and said: “Now that you’re full, it’s time to get to work.”

Hearing this, Coal jumped up excitedly.

With that, Han Xing began maneuvering the sky island territory closer to other clouds.

After more than 10 minutes, his sky island territory approached a cloud with an area of at least 20 m².

At this moment, a system notification appeared: [A group of violent horned creatures lives inside. Do you wish to enter?]

“Violent horned creatures? Doesn’t sound like friendly guys…”

Han Xing stroked his chin in thought.

But he couldn’t wait to test Coal’s abilities.

So, Han Xing immediately selected yes.

As the cloud dissipated, he saw four gray, long-haired creatures with curved horns inside.

[Horned Sheep (1-Star Creature)]

[Level: LV3]

[Strength: 8, Dexterity: 10, Wisdom: 7, Constitution: 8]

[Skills: Horn Charge, Heavenly Ram]

Four 1-Star LV3 monsters, even Han Xing, would need to use his powerful attack abilities to take down 2 instantly and then defeat the others one by one.

Otherwise, once surrounded by them, with his frail physique, he would soon be trampled to death by these Horned Sheep.

However, at this moment, he intended to send ‘Coal’ to fight alone.

As a pet, the Void Phantom Wolf ‘Coal’ would unquestionably obey its master’s commands. Even if Han Xing ordered it to fight an opponent as formidable as an archdemon, it would execute without hesitation.

The LV1 ‘Coal’ faced the daunting task of dealing with four LV3 Horned Sheep on its own.

Even when confronted with such overwhelming odds, it showed no sign of fear.

“Go, Little Coal!”

With Han Xing’s command, the small black puppy on the ground shed its playful and adorable demeanor.

Instead, its expression slowly turned fierce, baring its fangs.

At that moment, it began to exhibit the imposing presence of a powerful creature known as the Void Phantom Wolf.

Meanwhile, the four Horned Sheep, upon seeing Han Xing, immediately charged with eyes red with aggression.

They simultaneously lowered their heads, aiming their sharp horns, and kicked off with their legs, ready to charge toward Han Xing.

But in the next instant, a figure moved faster than they did.

Coal emitted a faint black light and dashed forward like a shadow, instantly appearing in front of one of the Horned Sheep.

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

In Han Xing’s sight, Coal’s attack swung in a blur.

Swish! Swish!

The Horned Sheep only felt a sharp pain as two claw marks appeared on its neck.

The next moment, bl00d began to gush forth.

“Baa!!!”

The Horned Sheep let out a painful wail, and the other three Horned Sheep, hearing the sound, turned their pitch-black eyes toward ‘Coal’.

Their aggro shifted.

In the next moment, they angrily moved their hooves and charged at ‘Coal’.

Seeing this scene, even Han Xing felt a bit worried for Coal.

He tightened his grip on the longbow, ready to step in and help at any moment.

However, ‘Coal’ on the ground not only remained unfazed but bared its teeth, emitting a threatening growl.

Its eyes held a proud gaze, like a king of the jungle, seemingly disregarding the Horned Sheep entirely.

The three Horned Sheep rushed forward.

Coal stood its ground, as a faint black light emanated from its body once again.

Han Xing saw clearly that at the instant the Horned Sheep attacked, its sharp horns seemed to pass right through Coal’s body, as if striking a void, causing it no harm.

‘Form of the Void!’

Han Xing exclaimed in his heart.

As Coal’s first skill, Form of the Void granted it a 50% chance to dodge.

At this moment, the attacks from all three Horned Sheep missed completely.

Truly a divine skill worthy of its name!

In the next instant, a flash of black light appeared, and Coal bit one of the Horned Sheep on the head.

Then, it extended its two sharp front claws, striking with such speed that afterimages appeared.

Swish! Swish! Swipe! Swipe!

In an instant, Coal attacked four times, and counting the damage from its bite, the Horned Sheep suffered five attacks from Coal.

Deep wounds that exposed the bone appeared on the Horned Sheep, emitting a faint black aura.

This was the effect of Coal’s second skill, Power of the Void.

“Baa…”

With a mournful bleat, the Horned Sheep fell.

At this moment, bl00d still lingered at the corner of Coal’s mouth, and this ferocious appearance even scared the other Horned Sheep, making them hesitant to attack again.

Han Xing also noticed that whenever Coal was in action or attacking, the black light emitting from its body seemed to boost its speed significantly.

Its actual speed even surpassed the attributes displayed on the panel.

“Is it the effect of the fourth skill, ‘Void Flicker’?” Han Xing exclaimed in shock.

This Void Phantom Wolf truly surprised him, continually delivering unexpected capabilities!

Void Flicker directly doubled Coal’s speed, added to its Form of the Void’s evasion, Spikes of Counter’s explosive impact, and the weakening effect of Power of the Void.

This combination of skills formed a robust melee combat system, covering survival and burst attacks without any shortcomings.

Furthermore, ‘Coal’ is only LV1 now, and when it reaches LV6 and LV10, the next two skills will be activated.

Upon reaching 2-Star, it will learn new advanced skills, not to mention what will come at 3-Star, 4-Star, and beyond.

By then, just imagine how powerful Coal with an S+ Growth Potential will be!

Just thinking about it made Han Xing extremely excited!

At that moment, the remaining 3 Horned Sheep also realized what was happening and attacked Coal again.

Coal was unfazed, transforming into a black streak of lightning, darting back and forth among the 3 Horned Sheep.

Every time it appeared, it left a few wounds on their bodies.

In an instant, bl00d splattered, and the scene became rather gruesome…

…
