Chapter 178 Sky Lord
[Congratulations to survivor Mo Ming for creating the first aerial shelter, triggering the achievement and rewarding you with the exclusive title---Sky Lord!]
[Airspace Lord]
Effect: Survivors and their pets gain a 20% boost to all attributes. When fighting in the air or on the island, the boost increases to 50%.
Mo Ming was almost stunned when he saw the announcement.
He stared blankly at the information, then his face changed from worry to ecstasy. The annoyance and helplessness he had just felt about the algorithm for hiding the floating stones were completely swept away in an instant.
He couldn't hide his excitement and grinned, "A title? They actually gave me a title! And this ability is too strong! Not only does it boost all attributes, but it also increases the combat power of the entire sky island by 50%! This... is simply unbelievable!"
Mo Ming was overwhelmed with excitement. He had only planned to build an aerial shelter, but he never expected that due to a series of "misoperations," he would actually trigger a hidden achievement. It was truly a case of "the flowers you plant with care may not bloom, but the willows you plant without intention may thrive."
The powerful effects of the title "Sky Lord" undoubtedly gave him more confidence in the days to come. Whether defending his territory or engaging in combat, he would have a huge advantage, especially within the floating island area, where his combat power would almost double.
Standing on the edge of the island, looking down at the horizon where the sea meets the sky, he took a deep breath and couldn't help but think, "Although the process was a bit outrageous, the result... wasn't so bad."
With his exclusive title, Mo Ming was only one-third of the way from the special upgrade of his shelter, which filled him with anticipation once again.
......
After Yunmeng Lingyu was transformed into a sky island, Mo Ming stood on the top of the shelter, looking down at this brand-new "sky world".
The island floated amidst the sea of clouds, surrounded by a light mist, its spiritual energy so dense it was almost tangible. This land was already home to many powerful beasts, and the ascent of Yunmeng Lingyu did not alter their presence.
He activated the protective radar, and the scan results quickly appeared on the screen. Within a five-kilometer radius, four crimson-purple level beasts had appeared, each possessing formidable power.
As beings of the Crimson Purple level, they already possess a considerable degree of intelligence, which forces Mo Ming to be even more cautious—whether these creatures are a threat or potential partners, everything needs to be further confirmed.
After a moment's thought, Mo Ming decided to go and observe the situation firsthand. If these wild beasts posed a direct threat to the shelter, he would not hesitate to drive them away or even kill them if necessary.
However, if it is something that can be communicated with or tamed, he is willing to try to establish a cooperative relationship. After all, the situation on the Sky Island still needs to be further controlled, and conflict is not the best way to solve the problem.
Following the radar's instructions, Mo Ming first headed towards the nearest point in the southwest. From atop a deep, secluded cliff, he spotted his target from a great distance.
A giant serpent covered in bluish-black scales was coiled on a protruding rock. Its enormous body was twenty meters long, its back was slightly bulging, and its two pairs of fleshy wings were spread out like sharp blades.
Its eyes glowed with a ghostly green light, their pupils standing upright, revealing cruelty and vigilance.
"A crimson-purple grade Azure Scale Winged Serpent." Mo Ming's heart skipped a beat.
This type of snake is an extremely rare flying creature, not only incredibly fast but also extremely venomous. Once it advances to the Radiant Orange level, its venom is powerful enough to completely corrode the body and soul of an expert of the same level.
Mo Ming did not approach rashly. After calming Meng Ling and Xiong Da down, he quietly observed them.
Although the aura of this Azure-scaled Winged Serpent was powerful, it did not seem to have any intention of actively invading the territory.
It seemed to have noticed Mo Ming's arrival. Suddenly, it raised its head, staring intently in his direction with its vertical snake eyes, flicking its scarlet tongue, and assuming a posture ready to attack at any moment.
To test its reaction, Mo Ming took two steps forward. The Azure-Scaled Winged Serpent immediately hissed, spread its fleshy wings, and began to stand upright, clearly posing a threat.
Mo Ming nodded, understanding the situation, and turned to leave. This Azure-Scaled Winged Serpent seemed powerful, but if pushed too far, its flapping fleshy wings posed a significant threat. It was not advisable to provoke it carelessly, so he decided to refrain from provoking it for the time being, but would continue to monitor it.
After leaving the southwest direction, Mo Ming continued eastward according to the radar's guidance. Not far away was a rugged valley, surrounded by hard rocks, and a faint, scorching smell filled the air. Following the scent, he quickly located a massive bovine creature.
This beast was enormous, standing over three meters tall and more than five meters long. Its pair of massive, curved horns appeared to be cast from iron, gleaming with a dark metallic sheen.
Its entire body was covered with a layer of rock-like armor, and with each step it took, the ground trembled slightly, and a violent sense of power rushed towards you.
The bull's eyes were bloodshot, and its breath carried a molten lava-like heat.
"Rock-Smashing Bull, a power-type crimson-purple level beast."
According to the analyzer, this beast is known for its strength and endurance; its single strike is powerful enough to shatter large rocks. It is extremely irritable and, once provoked, will often fight to the death.
What troubled Mo Ming was that the Rock-Breaking Bull was leisurely wandering near a mineral vein. Clearly, it likely considered that vein its territory; it looked very tempting.
"This cow can't be allowed to live." After thinking it over, he didn't act rashly but quietly left. He made a note of its location and would deal with this troublesome animal later when he had a well-thought-out plan.
As he continued northward in the dim light of dawn, Mo Ming entered a dark, dense forest. Here, sunlight could not penetrate year-round, and the ground was covered with all sorts of plants and thorns, creating an incredibly eerie atmosphere.
As he cautiously approached the location marked on the radar, a chilling aura suddenly swept over him. Mo Ming cautiously looked up, only to see a shadow darting swiftly through the woods.
He vigilantly scanned his surroundings, finally spotting his target—a slender wolf-like creature standing among the branches, looking down at him. The wolf's fur was an eerie dark green, seemingly blending into the forest, and it emanated faint fluctuations of spiritual energy.
"Shadow Devouring Wolves..." Mo Ming's heart sank. These wolves are not only extremely fast and adept at stealth, but their attacks are often silent, yet they can directly target the enemy's weak points, making them extremely dangerous.
Seeing this, Xiong Da and Xiong Er immediately transformed to prevent a sudden attack.
The Shadow Devouring Wolf stared at them, seemingly wary, but did not launch an attack. Mo Ming realized that the wolf might not see him as prey, but was simply wary of the sudden intruders.
"Good heavens, this wolf is much more dangerous than the mad bull, but it doesn't seem to have any intention of taking over the resources." Mo Ming pondered for a moment and decided not to provoke the creature for the time being.
Its speed and stealth made Mo Ming somewhat wary; making any rash moves might backfire, so he slowly retreated from its territory.
The final target was located atop a mountain in the center of the floating island. Mo Ming had Meng Ling slowly ascend for nearly half an hour, finally reaching a distant point where its entirety could be seen.
"This is......"
