I Maximize My Item-dropping Rate

55 Evil Spirit

Xiao Shi sized up the burly night patroller in front of him.

Through the blood qi fluctuations emitted by the other party, he determined that this was a night patroller at the eighth level of the Martial Entry-Level.

There were not many ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level night patrollers in Team D.

Yang Zhen and Wang Changhuan were both at Martial Entry-Level Seven. To them, such a night patroller at the eighth level of the Martial Entry-Level was indeed worthy of being called a backer.

Wang Luo’s gaze quickly focused on Xiao Shi.

Xiao Shi’s current blood and qi fluctuation was still at the fifth level of the Martial Entry-Level, close to the sixth level. In their team, he could be said to be the weakest. The other two night patrollers beside Wang Luo were also at the seventh stage of the Martial Entry-Level.

However, Wang Luo didn’t mind. He nodded. “No problem!”

“Thank you, Brother Luo.” Yang Zhen and Wang Changhuan thanked him.

They all knew very well that with Xiao Shi’s fifth level Martial Entry-Level cultivation, he was not qualified to join their team under normal circumstances. It was normal for Wnag Luo to reject him. In such a dangerous operation, no one wanted to bring someone whose strength could not keep up with the team.

However, Wang Luo was very loyal. He smiled. “We’re all brothers. There’s no need to stand on ceremony.”

Yang Zhen patted Xiao Shi’s shoulder. “With Brother Luo around, you should be relieved, right?”

Xiao Shi squeezed out a reassuring smile.

… .

The night gradually darkened. Many night patrollers in the camp had formed teams. This method of grouping up also relieved the nervousness in many people’s hearts.

When the sky completely darkened, “Move out!” the squinty-eyed man gave the order.

The various teams set off one after another. The reasons why they chose to act at night were firstly, it was because night was the strongest period for night patrollers. Secondly, evil spirits also liked to appear at night.

Xiao Shi’s team of six also began to take action immediately. With the camp as the center, they would patrol the surrounding area and eliminate all the evil spirits they encountered.

Under the night sky, these night patrollers were agile and had clear vision, like fish in the water. As they constantly patrolled, they were getting further and further away from the camp.

The night wind carried a chill that echoed between heaven and earth.

After Xiao Shi and the other three advanced for a while, an abandoned village appeared in their line of sight.

“According to the information, evil spirits are the easiest to appear in such a desolate village in the wilderness.” Yang Zhen whispered to everyone.

Although this was the first time the six of them had come to eliminate the evil spirit, before they set off, they had done their homework and knew about the haunt of the evil spirits.

“Let’s go take a look.” Wang Luo said in a deep voice.

They carefully approached the desolate village ahead. The night could not block their vision. Instead, it allowed them to see more clearly.

Soon, they saw at the entrance of the village a fleeting figure. This figure seemed to exist between illusory and corporeal. It had a pale face without any blood. Its eyes were also pale, and there were no eyeballs in its eyes.

At the same time, he did not have legs. He floated about 30 centimeters above the ground and slowly floated. There were three vertical marks on its forehead, representing its strength. It was equivalent to a human at the seventh stage of the Martial Entry-Level.

It was an evil spirit!

“Brother Luo, do we do it?”

Everyone looked at Wang Luo. As the strongest person in their team, he naturally had the final say.

Wang Luo pondered for a moment. He nodded. “Since we’ve encountered it, we naturally have to eliminate it. However, I’m worried that there might be more evil spirits in this desolate village. We have to end it quickly.”

“Understood.”

The others nodded.

“Junior Brother Xiao, help us investigate the surroundings. If anything happens, remember to inform us in time.” Wang Luo said.

Before they set off, they already had a clear division of labor. Xiao Shi would mainly be in charge of paying attention to the surrounding movements. After all, with his fifth level Martial Entry-Level cultivation, even if he were to attack, it would not be of much use. It was better to stay in the dark and be on guard for them.

After giving his instructions, Wang Luo led the other four to kill the evil spirit in front of the village.

Xiao Shi looked at them from afar. He focused on the combat method of the evil spirit. Although the evil spirit did not have legs, its speed and agility were not affected. Instead, it was abnormally agile.

After discovering Wang Luo and his team, the evil spirit raised its head and let out a sharp neigh.

Waves of sound waves spread out from his mouth and struck them. Their bodies trembled and they instantly felt their limbs go limp. Their heads swelled and hurt, and their speed also slowed down under this influence.

Without waiting for them to attack, the evil spirit’s body swayed and took the initiative to attack them. The evil spirit’s hands quickly enlarged, turning into two huge black claws. As they whistled, they tore through the air and fought with Wang Luo and the others.

It was extremely powerful and was actually not at a disadvantage in the intermediate confrontation with Wang Luo.

Not only that, the evil spirit’s body was incomparably sturdy.

When Yang Zhen and the others slashed at the evil spirit with the Martial Entry-Level weapons in their hands, it was as if they had slashed at some firm stone, causing a string of sparks. They were unable to break through the evil spirit’s body immediately.

“Fast speed, strong attack, and shocking defense. There’s also a special sound wave attack.”

Xiao Shi realized that the evil spirit was stronger than he had imagined. Based on the preliminary analysis, there were almost no weaknesses. Even when facing the siege of everyone, it was not at a disadvantage. Moreover, this was only an evil spirit equivalent to the seventh-stage Martial Entry-Level.

“The combat strength of the evil spirit is clearly stronger than martial artists of the same realm. It can fight above its level!” Xiao Shi narrowed his eyes.

The vertical mark on the evil spirit’s forehead represented its growth stage. A newborn evil spirit only had a vertical mark, and it was roughly comparable to a fifth level Martial Entry-Level human. Then, every additional vertical mark represented an increase in realm.

Xiao Shi did not expect an evil spirit with three vertical marks that is comparable to a seventh-stage Martial Entry-Level human to actually have the strength to fight against an eighth-stage Martial Entry-Level.

However, as the battle continued, Xiao Shi gradually discovered the weakness of the evil spirit.

“It seems… not very advanced.” Xiao Shi realized.

This evil spirit only knew how to attack Wang Luo. It completely ignored the others, causing it to be constantly attacked by others during the battle.

Although its body was firm, it gradually could not hold on under everyone’s continuous attacks. Cracks gradually filled its entire body. Then, under the joint attack of everyone, the evil spirit’s body completely exploded.

Boom!

He was successfully killed by Wang Luo and his team.

They also realized it. Although the evil spirit was powerful, its intelligence was not high. This was also the evil spirit’s greatest weakness.

...

Xiao Shi looked at the evil spirit’s corpse and couldn’t help but think that with the strength of the evil spirit, the probability of dropping high-quality items after killing it should be higher than that of a martial artist.

His eyes could not help but flash with anticipation.

According to his original plan, he should have eliminated the evil forces around Golden Cloud City and obtained the last two natural treasures to complete the final nine Body Tempering. However, this operation to eliminate the evil spirits did not give him time to eliminate the surrounding evil forces.

Then, he could only kill these evil spirits to obtain the items he wanted. After all, it was impossible for him to just watch the five of them kill the evil spirit in this operation. He would definitely have to kill it himself.

However, with his current identity and persona as a fifth level Martial Entry-Level junior, he definitely could not attack openly.

After some thought, Xiao Shi thought of a reasonable way to attack.
