The exclamations of the two echoed throughout the main tomb chamber, as the dust gradually settled down.

Yet the expressions on their faces remained equally shocked, for the thing before them was too terrifying!

"Roar!"

A deafening roar made Liu Zixuan and Crazy Zhou instinctively step back a few paces.

"Is this... is this the legendary Qilin?" Crazy Zhou exclaimed in astonishment.

"Qilin my ass, does your family's Qilin look this ugly?"

Liu Zixuan cursed and carefully examined the large creature in front of him.

It was a strange beast resembling a lion's head, a tiger's body, and a donkey's tail, quite massive, yet everything about it had a crystalline transparency. At a glance, you could see the insides of the creature. It had no heart, but there were blood vessels, except the liquid flowing through them wasn't red blood, but black fluid!

Liu Zixuan was somewhat astonished; call it a living being, but it had no heart. Without using X-ray Vision, you could see its inner workings. Say it's a dead object, yet it jumped out of the statue with such agility!

Liu Zixuan furrowed his brow: "I've never even heard of this thing."

"Could it be something from the era of the tomb's owner? Extinct by modern times?" Crazy Zhou murmured.

"Probably not, this seems to be man-made, not a biological creature." Liu Zixuan shook his head. Any biological creature has a heart, must have blood flowing, but this guy doesn't!

He speculated it might be a guardian beast left by the tomb's owner, similar to those two pythons in Lingxiu Village!

"You hide to the side, let me test it out!" Liu Zixuan said in a deep voice.

"You... you want to take it on?" Crazy Zhou was stunned: "Forget it, you kid are annoying but are also my future son-in-law, if you die, I can't explain it to my daughter!"

"Damn you!" Liu Zixuan immediately cursed: "Can't you say something nice?"

"How can I say something nice, that thing is so big, one claw can slap you dead! And you still think you can kill it!" Crazy Zhou, not knowing what was misfiring in his head, muttered: "Do you think you are Ultraman?"

Liu Zixuan was infuriated, grabbing Crazy Zhou by the collar: "Believe it or not, I'll throw you over first, let it eat its fill, and I'll quietly sneak away?"

Hearing this, Crazy Zhou's mouth twitched a few times, then he patted Liu Zixuan's shoulder with a serious expression: "Zixuan! I believe in you, kill it and you'll be the guardian deity of Star Sea!"

After speaking, this rascal scurried to a corner like a mouse.

Liu Zixuan rubbed his forehead, at this point, he couldn't argue with him anymore. Reluctantly, he turned to look at the strange beast in front of him, his steps lightly shifting, circling halfway around the creature!

The strange beast also stared at Liu Zixuan with its transparent eyes, occasionally letting out a low growl!

Liu Zixuan placed his hand on his waist and took out the Soul-Devouring Sword directly; dealing with such a large beast, he couldn't afford to be careless!

"Roar!"

At that moment, the strange beast suddenly leaped up, lunging at Liu Zixuan with the posture of a hungry wolf biting prey.

Liu Zixuan's eyes widened, holding the Soul-Devouring Sword, he thrust towards the beast's eye.

Swoosh!

The sharp Soul-Devouring Sword penetrated the beast's eye, a burst of black liquid gushed out, followed by a stench that was hard for Liu Zixuan to bear!

He manipulated his body to spring back in a retreat of three steps, but the beast didn't let out a painful wail as expected but rather suddenly turned towards the giant statue.

It stayed around the statue for about two seconds before quickly turning back!

An astonishing scene unfolded, the eye originally pierced by Liu Zixuan had completely restored to its original state!

"Can't be hurt?" Liu Zixuan murmured with a frown.

The strange beast attacked again, and this time more fiercely than before. Liu Zixuan, though dodging, was still slapped by the beast, sending him flying out.

Bang!

He crashed into the wall, then fell to the ground, immediately feeling his blood surge, spitting out a mouthful of blood from his mouth!

Liu Zixuan felt his body was about to fall apart, pain coursed through him!

"Crap, did I really guess right, one claw just slaps you dead?" Watching Liu Zixuan lying on the ground, Crazy Zhou murmured with a grin.

"If anyone dies, it should be you first!"

Liu Zixuan cursed angrily, climbing up from the ground, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes sharply fixing on the strange beast!

Instantly, Liu Zixuan's figure burst forth, his speed exceeding limits, transforming into countless afterimages, lunging towards the beast.

The strange beast issued a menacing roar at the many afterimages before it, warily watching the surroundings!

With the Soul-Devouring Sword in his right hand, Liu Zixuan launched several Silver Needles from his left hand, attacking the strange beast simultaneously.

Swish! Swish!

Puff!

The Soul-Devouring Sword and Silver Needles pierced the strange beast accurately and precisely, causing black liquid to flow out once again, with the stench intensifying.

Liu Zixuan worried about a potential counterattack from the beast upon its death, quickly retreated a few steps, his eyes watching each of its movements intently.

It was quite evident that the black liquid inside the beast was getting less and less, and those blood vessel-like channels were becoming clearer and more transparent.

Liu Zixuan silently let out a breath of relief; it appeared the beast should be killed by now.

He then slowly walked over to Crazy Zhou: "Alright, hurry up and get up, that strange beast has been killed by me!"

"You really are the Star Sea..." As Crazy Zhou was getting up and looking ahead, his words suddenly stopped as he hastily shouted: "Not... not dead!"

"Stop kidding, the black liquid on its body has already flowed..." Liu Zixuan said with a smile while turning to look back, only to see the strange beast was no longer where he struck it down but had returned by the statue, with the black liquid flowing back, and the wounds healing at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Seeing this, Liu Zixuan felt his scalp tingling.

The beast's attacking power seemed not to be strong, but what he couldn't believe was that it was an indestructible existence. It had just been beaten to that state, yet healed so quickly!

"Damn it, is its name Little Strong?"

"Why call it Little Strong?" Crazy Zhou instinctively asked.

"The unkillable Little Strong!"

"Then... what do we do now? How about we just grab some treasures and run? After all, you got the Silver Needles; it's not a wasted trip anyway!" Crazy Zhou ran out of ideas, resorting to the oldest trick, the strategic retreat!

Liu Zixuan shook his head: "I'm afraid if we don't really kill this guy, we won't be able to leave!"

"Then we're doomed, this thing just won't die." Crazy Zhou slouched on the ground, cursing like a resentful wife: "It's all your damn fault, I haven't earned enough money yet, haven't slept with enough models!"
