A dark golden ray of light shot out from Zhang Che’s brow, forming a dark golden card with four hexagrams in his palm.

“Only its quality increased. It’s not enough…”

========

Although Zhang Che was a little surprised by the Vampiric Demon Carpet’s breakthrough to dark gold-quality, he didn’t regard it as anything important.

It was only a four-star dark gold-quality card. He was already the owner of a bunch of legend-quality babies; this fellow didn’t seem able to display much combat strength, even though it was dark gold-quality.

After looking through the Vampiric Demon Carpet’s new attributes, Zhang Che was even more sure of his judgement. There was barely any changes to its attributes.

The only praiseworthy part was that its sole weakness had changed from fire elemental attacks to innate fire elemental attacks. However, that was only limited to situations when its opponent’s level and quality was about the same as the Vampiric Demon Carpet.

If its opponent was a more powerful legend-quality exotic beast, the Vampiric Demon Carpet would probably find it tough to defend against their attacks.

As for its attacking attributes, the increase was nothing noteworthy.

The range of its Wind Travel skill had increased from twenty to fifty meters, and its cooldown time was reduced from five minutes to three minutes.

Although it seemed like a significant improvement, it was only an improvement in terms of quantity, and not quality.

Also, although this fellow’s attacks were peculiar, it was small. Facing larger exotic beasts, it had no way to wrap around them fully. How much power could it display then?

Done thinking, the dark golden card turned into a dark golden glow and flew to the ground as Zhang Che willed it, transforming into a large carpet.

Zhang Che’s eyes immediately widened in surprise.

“If I remember correctly, this fellow was originally only about a meter or two long, wasn’t it? Did it take some pills or something?”

Zhang Che couldn’t help but be surprised. The Vampiric Demon Carpet before his eyes was very different from before. Its body was about ten meters long when spread open, and the most narrow part was around eight meters across.

In other words, the surface area of that fellow had directly shot up from around two square meters to eighty square meters!

What did that signify?

Zhang Che realized it without having to think much about it.

The Vampiric Demon Carpet mainly relied on wrapping itself around its prey, leaving them unable to break free while it secreted a corrosive fluid from the suction cups on its abdomen, peeling the skin or scales of its prey off in an extremely short amount of time. Afterwards, it’d quickly suck its prey dry of blood, killing them.

It was due to this characteristic that the size of its body had a direct influence on its offensive strength.

Take a large beast like the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus, for example. If the Vampiric Demon Carpet was only as big as it was originally, so what if it had risen to legend-quality? It wouldn’t even be able to wrap itself around the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus’ leg!

Under such circumstances, even if the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus couldn’t tear the carpet into shreds with its frighteningly powerful jaws, he could definitely peel it off his body.

The same couldn’t be said now, however. With its surface area increased to about eighty square meters, even a large beast like the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus wouldn’t be able to break himself free from the Vampiric Demon Carpet easily if he found himself wrapped up by the carpet.

“Hmm, I seem to have underestimated you?”

Zhang Che looked at the Vampiric Demon Carpet, pondering for a short while with furrowed brow. In the end, he decided to examine its actual combat strength. He would find out whether he had estimated it or not very quickly.

Of course, since he wanted to test the Vampiric Demon Carpet’s current combat ability, he definitely had to choose those more powerful exotic beasts. It would be useless if they weren’t legend-quality, or high-tier dark gold-quality.

“Hopefully this fellow won’t die right away, even if it can’t win…”

Zhang Che wavered slightly. However, when he thought of that fellow’s sole weakness being innate fire elemental attacks, it should be able to take a few hits against physical or other elemental attacks at the very least, right?

If you think of something, you should put it into action! After eating a simple breakfast, Zhang Che immediately got on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon and started looking for powerful exotic beasts nearby.

He was already deep in the beast world. Due to Zhang Che focusing his attention on weaker mid-tier exotic beasts during the past few days, he had purposely avoided the resting grounds of the stronger ones.

Now that he was purposefully going to find trouble with them, naturally it wouldn’t be difficult to locate them.

——

Zhang Che searched for less than an hour before he successfully found a powerful exotic beast.

Although it was neither dark gold or legend-quality, its level was high.

It was a seven-star gold-quality beast. Just by its strength, it was stronger than a five-star legend-quality beast. Even the weaker six-star legend-quality beasts might not compare to it!

It was a rare metal-attributed exotic beast, not very very big in size.

Naturally, the Vampiric Demon Carpet was a beast more suited to sneaking up on others, and wasn’t suited to facing these powerful exotic beasts head on. Otherwise, there was no chance of it wrapping itself around its enemy.

As such, Zhang Che stealthily summoned the Vampiric Demon Carpet mid-way, and had it hide in a scattered shrubbery. Afterwards, he directly pounced onto the Metal-attributed exotic beast, riding on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon.

As he approached the beast, there was nothing to be said. Zhang Che took out the Horned Electric Python and directly shot a bolt of lightning at it.

There was a loud crackle. The metal-attributed exotic beast was weak against the Lightning attribute to begin with. After being blasted like that, it was immediately put into a bad position. However, due to its high level, it wasn’t injured too gravely. But, the key thing was, it was shameful!

As such, that fellow roared out furiously and immediately gave chase to the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon.

With the dragon’s speed advantage, even though Zhang Che could slowly grind that exotic beast to death, he still chose to turn around and leave immediately.

His purpose here was to examine the Vampiric Demon Carpet’s combat strength, after all!

The metal-attributed exotic beast ran as if it was flying, quickly chasing the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to the place where the Vampiric Demon Carpet was hiding.

Zhang Che grew worried again. The exotic beast was a high-tier metal-attributed gold-quality exotic beast. Its attacking strength should be very high. Would the Vampiric Demon Carpet be able to withstand it?

Even so, things had already progressed to this point. Thinking too much wouldn’t help.

Soon, the metal-attributed exotic beast came into the Vampiric Demon Carpet’s attack range.

In the next moment, Zhang Che noticed with his peripheral vision that the Vampiric Demon Carpet shot out of its hiding spot like lightning. Just as the metal-attributed exotic beast sensed something amiss, it had no time to react to the sudden situation, and was quickly enveloped by the Vampiric Demon Carpet.

When he saw this, Zhang Che immediately had the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon come to a stop, ready to provide reinforcement at any moment.

After the Vampiric Demon Carpet enveloped the metal-attributed exotic beast, it started rolling quickly on the ground. Some areas on its furry body would bulge out from time to time. The exotic beast was obviously putting up a very fierce struggle.

Even so, what quickly calmed Zhang Che was that even though the exotic beast was struggling violently, there were no signs of the Vampiric Demon Carpet faltering at all.

“This fellow’s defense is so tough!”

Zhang Che’s eyes nearly popped out from their sockets watching this. It seemed like this fellow’s defense was seriously and unusually strong. Having said that it’s only weakness being innate fire elemental attacks, other attacks really couldn’t do much against it, despite the metal-attributed exotic beast being much stronger than it.

-This works! If it continues growing at this rate, when that fellow has risen to legend-quality, wouldn’t it be able to trap even non-fire elemental epic-quality beasts, and even kill them?- Zhang Che immediately grew excited at the thought.

This was an incredibly discovery! What was challenging a higher rank? This was it, and it wasn’t only just one rank; even challenging two ranks higher was possible!

“Looks like I have really neglected this fellow. If it wasn’t for it advancing to dark gold-quality, I would have really forgotten about it…” Thinking of this, Zhang Che grew very excited. He had another high priority subdued beast to nurture from now on!

If the Vampiric Demon Carpet could advance to legend-quality, even if Zhang Che had no epic-quality subdued beasts… of course, that was impossible. It would probably take half a year’s time at least for the Vampiric Demon Carpet to rise to legend-quality. At that time, perhaps Zhang Che would have already become a high-tier beastmaster… the carpet would be able to take down an epic-quality exotic beast by itself, although only if it was an ambush.

The metal-attributed exotic beast trapped by the Vampiric Demon Carpet was still struggling fiercely. It even used its attacking skill, but in the end, it only managed to tear a few small openings on the Vampiric Demon Carpet’s body, and not deal any heavy damage to this monstrous subdued beast.

As time slowly ticked away, the struggles of the Vampiric Demon Carpet’s “package” rolling on the ground became increasingly smaller, and finally came to a stop.

Only ten minutes or so had passed, before Zhang Che received the notification of killing the metal-attributed exotic beast in his head.

“Awesome! A high-tier gold-quality exotic beast was killed in just ten minutes, and it was even a metal-attributed exotic beast that specialized in attack! No matter how I look at this, this fellow is like a cheat!”

Zhang Che was obviously happy that he got a high-tier gold-quality beast card. However, what he was most excited about was none other than the powerful combat strength the Vampiric Demon Carpet had displayed.

From the looks of it, as long as it wasn’t an exotic beast with innate fire elemental attack, it would be no match for the Vampiric Demon Carpet, even if its level and quality was a rank higher! Once it enveloped its target, the result was final!

-Hmm, if I find any treasures in the future, no matter how beneficial they are after refining them into medicine, I’ll give them to the Vampiric Demon Carpet as long as they are useful and try to get this fellow to rise to legend-quality!- Zhang Che immediately decided. Whatever resources he found in the future, the monstrous beast that was the Vampiric Demon Carpet would be given priority!
