With the power of the wind attribute, Su Chen instantly escaped several meters in mid-air, and then his right palm pressed down, creating a gentle vortex that allowed the two to land smoothly on the ground. However, the howling sound from behind proved the Black Cloud Leopard was still chasing relentlessly. Su Chen pierced through its mouth with the sword, thoroughly angering it. At this point, there was no chance for recovery!

Su Chen, fleeing like a gust of wind, suddenly halted his steps!

Phoenix's face turned white, and she said anxiously, "What's wrong?"

"I'll stay and hold it off. You go first."

Phoenix was stunned for a moment, then looked at the imminent Black Cloud Leopard, gritted her teeth, and nodded, "Alright, be careful yourself!"

Watching her disappear, Su Chen seemed a bit surprised, but the situation was urgent, leaving no room for other considerations. The Black Cloud Leopard growled low, crouching on all fours, its blood-red eyes fixated on Su Chen, radiating a determination to kill.

Su Chen sighed heavily, looking helplessly at the fierce Black Cloud Leopard, muttering to himself, "Big guy, you're really full of energy, just upgraded, don't use me for target practice, okay?"

"Roar!"

How could the Black Cloud Leopard understand his words? It charged abruptly, soaring through the air like a small black mountain pressing forward! Su Chen's face changed slightly, he made a large side-step teleport, flipped the short blade into his palm, and spun it to stab forward!

A gleam flashed in the Black Cloud Leopard's eyes, disregarding the threat of the short blade, pouncing towards Su Chen once more, those sharp claws tearing through the air, aimed to rip Su Chen apart from head to toe!

Holding his breath, Su Chen quickly thrust out the short blade, wrapped in a green light, the momentum of the short blade surged, as if it had become a longsword of green light!

Claws and short blade clashed instantly, creating a fierce spark in the air. Shocked by its massive force, Su Chen retreated several meters rapidly, the Black Cloud Leopard let out a low roar, pounced again, launching a series of fierce attacks with its claws. Su Chen was forced to retreat continuously, only able to parry with the short blade while devising a strategy to counterattack.

In terms of strength, how could he possibly win against this giant leopard with a body size over nine meters? Speed? What a joke, was there any land Spirit Beast faster than a leopard? Not to mention himself, who had just stepped into the ranks of a Beast Master!

After thinking it over, it seemed there was no other option but to escape. Su Chen was forced back step by step by the Black Cloud Leopard, without any room to counter, almost retreating into a corner, becoming a sitting duck!

Suddenly, a bold idea flashed in Su Chen's mind!

Isn't there the newly acquired power of Profound Water? Since it's a dead-end anyway, why not try the power of the Profound Water?

Thinking so, he suddenly retreated ten meters, directly retreating to the base of a large tree, falling into a cornered situation. Then he gathered all his strength, throwing the short blade fiercely! A thick green light wrapped the short blade, shooting towards the Black Cloud Leopard's gigantic head at a terrifying speed!

The Black Cloud Leopard did not expect him to abandon his weapon to try and hit its head. Hurriedly, it moved its massive body, jumping swiftly backward to the left. And at this moment, Su Chen spread his palms, two streams of green light rotating in different directions appeared, propelling his body spiraling up into mid-air!

Standing on a widely forked branch, his view was unprecedentedly broad. The deep sockets of the Black Cloud Leopard seemed entirely within his sight. From this elevated angle, he could execute that extra skill, the explosive water tornado!

Su Chen focused his mind and calmed his breath, his internal Sea of Qi flowing continuously. The newborn surging water attribute energy surged up instantly, forming a fierce tidal wave. The deep blue Profound Water power seemed to chant a soulful hymn, instantly attracting and converging the natural water in the air!

The tree, the ground, the air, all objects containing natural water, instantly dried up, a small water tornado of blue and white appeared mid-air, charging toward the Black Cloud Leopard's terrified face with overwhelming power!

Like being pierced by a thousand swords, the Black Cloud Leopard's entire head was invaded by the water tornado, emitting cracking sounds of shattering! Clumps of crimson and white hot brain matter splattered and scattered, the Black Cloud Leopard's body below its head struggled violently, dust swirling, bloodstains everywhere...

Listening to the thunderous roars of pain in the dense forest, Phoenix outside had a contemplative look. She knew that Su Chen had once again successfully defeated the mutated level-four Black Cloud Leopard!

Su Chen landed gracefully, although his face was pale, he fortunately suffered no harm. He walked slowly to the torn Black Cloud Leopard, overlooking the tragic scene, with an indifferent expression.

For any existence that tried to harm him, he would not harbor the slightest compassion. Because he knew deeply that this was a world where the weak are prey to the strong, and only by continually strengthening oneself could one have the qualification to stand proudly among the heroes. When necessary, stepping up over others' corpses was also an effective way. However, he had his principles, which was that friends and family must never betray.

But just as Su Chen was about to pass by the Black Cloud Leopard's corpse, a round black Spirit Pearl rolled right in front of him, its ominous gloss glimmering with a hint of crystal white, like the deepest glow in a cat's eye. Su Chen bent down to pick it up, weighing it in his hand a few times.

At this moment, Phoenix happened to return, coming back into the forest. Seeing the Spirit Pearl in Su Chen's hand, her beautiful eyes couldn't help but light up.
