Chapter 918: Headshot!
Xiong Dali and the others concealed themselves within the bushes below the mountain. They observed the Black Wind Vultures’ nest on the cliff through the gaps between the bushes.
They were counting the number of Black Wind Vultures.
“There are 28 of them, all in the nest. Looks like we’ll need to wait,” Xiong Dali said helplessly after counting them.
There were only four of them. It was unrealistic for them to deal with 28 emperor-level star beasts. They might die together if they rushed forward recklessly.
“Let’s wait and observe. The Black Wind Vultures will need to find food. Only the Black Wind Vulture King will guard the nest,” Brakay said.
Hence, they waited patiently.
In the afternoon, cries of the Black Wind Vultures sounded in the sky. The wind swirled in the air and large shadows flew out of the nest, spreading their wings and soaring into the horizon.
“They’ve left!” The team was invigorated. Xiong Dali sniggered. “Damn it, they finally left. We’ll start moving after ten minutes.”
Brakay and Hasten were excited, staring at the giant next in anticipation. They could see a huge black shadow lying in the nest. It seemed to be resting.
Wang Teng’s gaze landed on the black shadow. He activated his Spiritual Sight, and a glaring ball of green light appeared in his vision.
F**k! This is a first-level imperial-stage Black Wind Vulture. Why did they say that it was at the seventh-level emperor stage?
Wang Teng almost cursed, but he controlled himself.
He was confused. Hiding in the dark, he observed the other martial warriors’ expressions.
The imperial stage was equivalent to the celestial stage of martial warriors. He had no chance of facing an imperial-level as a first-level planetary-stage martial warrior.
Were these three fellows trying to trick him? Did they have evil intentions?

Are these three fellows even reliable? Wang Teng was speechless.
Fortunately, he could deal with imperial-level star beasts. If not, his first hunting mission in the virtual universe would be a failure.
“Attack!” Xiong Dali bellowed in a low tone.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The three martial warriors dashed out at once, turning into beams of light as they rushed into the sky and charged toward the Black Wind Vulture King.
Wang Teng wanted to remind them, but they couldn’t wait to welcome their death—erm, couldn’t wait to act. Hence, he decided to shut up and follow behind them.
He still remembered his mission. He used his earth Force to stabilize their figures.
“Kill!” Xiong Dali shouted. A huge hammer appeared in his hand. Fire Force congregated on it, forming roaring flames. They turned into the shape of a giant fire hammer as it hurled toward the Black Wind Vulture King.
Hasten and Brakay acted simultaneously.
Brakay was holding a blade with a golden glow shimmering around it. He slashed out a hundred-meter-long blade glow.
Wang Teng was surprised by Hasten’s attacks, who carried a long bow. Water Force gathered on the bow and formed a sharp arrow. Within the span of a few breaths, he fired seven arrows at the Black Wind Vulture King.
The Black Wind Vulture King spread out its wings as the attacks rained down on it, screeching in anger. Its voice pierced into everyone’s ears like a needle.
Boom, boom, boom!
The martial warriors’ attacks landed on the Black Wind Vulture King. Loud explosions occurred.
The Black Wind Vulture King’s nest was set aflame.

Screech!
Suddenly, an anguished cry burst from within the flames.
Boom!
A gale appeared out of nowhere. The flames turned into a tornado, surging right into the sky. The Black Wind Vulture King’s shadow could be seen amid the flames.
“Damn it, run!”
The three martial warriors immediately detected something amiss. Their expressions changed, and they shouted as they retreated quickly.
With each flap of the vulture king, the gale grew stronger. The flames shot towards the martial warriors along with the wind.
“F**k, when did this Black Wind Vulture King become so strong?” Xiong Dali found it unbelievable.
But they didn’t panic. Hasten pulled his bow as they retreated, throwing powerful water Force arrows at the flame.
Boom!
The two Forces collided in the air. The flames were the residual energy of Xiong Dali’s attack, so they got doused by Hasten’s water element attack.
Screech!
However, the Black Wind Vulture King had already charged out of its nest. Its black feathers seemed to be made of steel, giving off a sharp glint. It glared at the martial warriors with hatred in its gaze. It wanted to tear them into pieces.
A green glow twirled around the Black Wind Vulture King, creating sharp wind blades. They cut through the air while flying toward the martial warriors.
In an instant, the sky was densely populated with wind blades. There was no room to retreat.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})The three martial warriors were appalled. They executed their skills to defend against the wind blade attack.
Boom, boom, boom!
Force collided and explosions resounded. Energy waves spread out in the air.
The sky was the Black Wind Vulture King’s territory. The three of them were like target boards and struggled to cope.
“This Black Wind Vulture King is at the imperial stage!” Xiong Dali yelled in disbelief. He finally noticed what was wrong.
He didn’t think that this Black Wind Vulture King was able to advance to the imperial stage in such a short time. This didn’t make sense.
The virtual universe was indeed a reflection of the real universe. The star beasts here wouldn’t appear for no reason. They could multiply, grow, and become stronger…
“What should we do? We can’t beat it,” Brakay asked sternly.
“Retreat!” Xiong Dali was decisive, giving up on the hunt without any hesitation.
They couldn’t deal with an imperial-stage Black Wind Vulture King. They had no choice but to retreat. Staying alive was more important.
Although they wouldn’t die for real if they got killed in the virtual universe, their spirits would still be injured. They could only re-enter the virtual universe after spending some time in recovery. This was an unbearable loss.
The three of them wanted to escape, but the Black Wind Vulture King’s aggro was locked on them. It wouldn’t let them leave. It opened its beak, and a ball of green light gathered in it.
The three martial warriors felt the frightening Force fluctuation. They were flabbergasted.
“Split up and run! Escape if you can!” Xiong Dali shouted.
They dashed off without any hesitation.
Swoosh!
At this moment, a terrifying fist aura came from beside them and landed on the Black Wind Vulture King’s head. The vulture was caught off guard.
The Black Wind Vulture King, who was preparing its attack, received a headshot!
The three martial warriors: ???
