The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

Li Muyang’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

He stared open-mouthed at the giant beast that appeared out of the mist before him, almost doubting his own eyes.

The Jade Mantis that had been lost in the netherworld after clearing the "Endless Evolution" game had vanished without a trace.

No one knew how the beast had fared in the netherworld.

The out-of-control Jade Mantis would become muddled and stuporous, perhaps finding some corner to burrow into and hide.

Just as when Li Muyang used to play "Endless Evolution," each time he logged off, the Jade Mantis would dig a hole to conceal itself until Li Muyang logged on again.

But now, this towering and unsettling creature suddenly appeared in the world shrouded in mist ten thousand meters underground.

It still looked as muddled and stuporous as ever but was at least able to move on its own.

The massive Jade Mantis moved forward through the mist.

Its icy scythe-like arms closed together, giving off a bone-chilling coldness.

At this moment, the joyful voice of Yao Yuejiao arose.

"Eh? You recognize this thing?"

Yao Yuejiao happily said, "That’s great, Li Muyang! Quickly, tell me about this guy’s background. Seeing it feels so familiar!"

"I’ve been tracking it these past few days."

"It’s really fierce, you know. In this misty world, it cuts down those monsters with one sweep of its arm, devouring dozens of Heart Eaters at a time."

"But strangely, it doesn’t attack me. However, the creature also ignores me as if it has no brain. No matter how much I call it, there’s no response."

Yao Yuejiao quickly recounted to Li Muyang what had happened over the past few days.

After listening, Li Muyang fell into silent contemplation.

He had not expected that Yao Yuejiao would encounter the Jade Mantis in the misty world.

Moreover, that the Jade Mantis wouldn’t attack her, yet also did not respond to her.

Yet Yao Yuejiao felt a vaguely familiar and intimate presence from the Jade Mantis.

So she had been tracking it all this time, but she didn’t think that the Jade Mantis would go farther and farther into the mist, leaving her with no chance to hunt for Heart Eaters. @@novelbin@@

Having heard Yao Yuejiao’s story, Li Muyang let out a sigh.

He looked at the Jade Mantis ahead and sighed.

"Could it be anything but familiar... This creature used to be you."

"Using its body, I devoured and evolved all the way to become the behemoth it is today."

"Its body still retains my scent; it’s only natural that you feel a connection."

Li Muyang observed the Jade Mantis in the mist from a distance, only to see the enormous creature suddenly brandish its scythe-like arms.

A flash of sharp, cold light streaked through the mist.

In that moment, it seemed as if even space itself was cleaved in two.

The swirling mist parted down the middle, creating a narrow void in the misty world.

In this void, a creature teeming with Heart Eaters was split in two, its corrupt blood gushing wildly.

The Heart Eaters on the creature’s skin scurried away in terror, but the Jade Mantis charged forward aggressively.

In the blink of an eye, those Heart Eaters, glowing with an azure flame, were devoured one by one by the Jade Mantis.

The mantis’s body, as exquisitely delicate and smooth as jade, was silently suffused with a lustrous sheen.

Yao Yuejiao was visibly excited.

"It was also helped by you? Then, isn’t it on our side?"

"Can we ask for its help? It’s really powerful!"

Indeed, the scythe-like arms of the Jade Mantis were formidable.

This was a behemoth ancient demonic beast that rejected all the flashy things like intelligence, transformation, mana, and concentrated all attributes into its monstrous physique.

It was the ultimate path of demonic beast evolution.

Those two scythe arms were so sharp that they could probably even make superior Magic Artifacts look dull in comparison.

However, looking at the Jade Mantis ahead, Li Muyang only shook his head without a word.

"It probably can’t be persuaded..."

After clearing "Endless Evolution," he could no longer enter the game, naturally losing control over the Jade Mantis.

Although he now saw the Jade Saber Mantis in reality, the fact that it did not attack him was already an unexpected joy.

To control the Jade Saber Mantis again... probably impossible.

However, the words of the Moon-Biter Jiao still stirred Li Muyang’s emotions.

Watching the Jade Saber Mantis voraciously devouring the heart-eating worms in the mist ahead, seeing its confused and dull appearance, for some reason, he felt an inexplicable ache in his heart.

It was as if he encountered a long-lost pet that had been wandering the streets after being raised for so long.

Li Muyang couldn’t help but float forward, coming to the massive body of the Jade Saber Mantis and gently touching its smooth head.

"You, this guy... sigh..."

The Jade Saber Mantis, unlike the Moon-Biter Jiao, had no spiritual intelligence.

Now, having lost Li Muyang’s control, it was acting on instinct alone, aimless and muddled like a headless fly.

To see it in such a daze and confusion was heart-wrenching.

But just as Li Muyang’s hand touched the Jade Saber Mantis.

The mantis, which had shown no reaction to Li Muyang and had not attacked, suddenly shook violently.

It seemed to sense something, quickly turning its head to look at the "woman" beside it.

As their gazes met, a surge of emotion welled up in Li Muyang’s heart unexpectedly. Explore more at NovelBin.Côm

...

The system notifications that popped up in his field of vision brought great surprise to Li Muyang.

An Easter egg?

Summoning the Jade Saber Mantis?

Holy shit!

This is another mighty weapon!

And this mighty weapon has far fewer side effects than the Startling Swan Immortal Sword.

At least against the Demon Cultivators of the Green Sheep Society, the Jade Saber Mantis should be more than enough!

Li Muyang opened his eyes in delight, only to see nine streaks of Escaping Light flying rapidly towards him in the distance, their approach menacing.

Aunt Su, who had been resting at his side, also abruptly stood up, her face solemn.

"They’re here!" Aunt Su said, alerting Li Muyang.

But at this critical moment, Li Muyang instead closed his eyes.

He opened the system and activated the newly acquired skill -[Underworld Behemoth].

In an instant, he faintly sensed the aura of the Jade Saber Mantis, which was incredibly distant, as if at the other end of the world.

But as Li Muyang called out, the distant Jade Saber Mantis suddenly stirred into motion.

It rushed toward Li Muyang’s location at high speed, seemingly transforming into light underground.

In Li Muyang’s view, the skill bar for [Underworld Behemoth] appeared.

[Summoning: 03:29]

This indicated the time required for the summoning.

Three and a half minutes...

Li Muyang watched the nine streaks of Escaping Light that were swiftly closing in, his expression grave.

"Aunt Su! Please hold off the enemy for a while!"

"Reinforcements will arrive soon!"
