Chapter 20 Tyrannosaurus Rex
Chapter 20 Tyrannosaurus Rex
After experiencing the joy of breaking through to the seventh level of magic, Lin Tian did not slack off in the slightest, but instead devoted himself even more wholeheartedly to cultivation. In the following years, with Laun's careful accompaniment, Lin Tian frequently traversed the treacherous peaks and valleys of the Monster Mountain Range, like a tireless explorer, constantly challenging his own limits.
After a long period of training, Lin Tian is now an eighth-level mage and a peak eighth-level warrior. Lin Tian is currently fourteen years old. Through these years of cultivation, not only has his level increased, but his occasional trials in the Monster Mountain Range have also greatly improved his combat power. With his dual eighth-level strength, he has already killed many ordinary ninth-level monsters. This time, he has come to challenge a peak ninth-level monster.
On this day, Lin Tian once again ventured deep into the Monster Mountain Range. A suffocating and dangerous aura permeated the air, as if foreshadowing a thrilling battle about to unfold.
"Roar—" A deafening roar came from the valley ahead, shaking the earth. Lin Tian's eyes sharpened instantly. He knew that this was his target—a Tyrannosaurus Rex at the peak of level nine.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex was enormous, like a mountain, tens of meters long. Its body was covered with thick black scales that gleamed with a cold metallic sheen in the sunlight. Its head was huge and ferocious, with two sharp fangs protruding from the corners of its mouth like two gleaming blades. A pair of blood-red eyes burned with ferocious flames, staring intently at Lin Tian, as if declaring its territorial sovereignty.
Lin Tian took a deep breath, gripped his spear tightly, and his battle aura erupted instantly, sweeping outwards like an invisible storm centered on him. "Come on!" His voice was firm and powerful, echoing through the valley like a resounding bell.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex launched the first attack, its massive body charging towards Lin Tian like a runaway chariot. The ground cracked under its stomp, kicking up clouds of dust. Lin Tian dodged the Tyrannosaurus Rex's first charge with ghostly agility. Simultaneously, he flicked his spear, activating the "Flame Spear," its tip instantly bursting into flames as he thrust it towards the Tyrannosaurus Rex's side. However, the Tyrannosaurus Rex's scales were incredibly tough; the spear only left a shallow mark.
"As expected of a Tyrannosaurus Rex at the peak of level nine, its defense is truly astonishing!" Lin Tian thought to himself in amazement, but he showed no intention of backing down. He quickly leaped backward, widening the distance between himself and the Tyrannosaurus Rex, while chanting, "Fire Rain Meteor!" As the incantation was uttered, dozens of huge, burning meteors appeared in the sky, trailing long fiery tails, crashing down on the Tyrannosaurus Rex like meteorites.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex roared, unleashing a powerful surge of magic that formed a protective shield to try and deflect the barrage of fire meteors. The fire meteors collided with the shield, erupting in a dazzling display of light and a deafening roar. Instantly, flames soared into the sky, and thick smoke billowed from the valley. As the smoke cleared, Lin Tian was astonished to discover that although the Tyrannosaurus Rex had been struck by the fire meteors, its powerful physique had rendered it with only minor injuries.
"It seems ordinary attacks aren't very effective against it." Lin Tian frowned slightly, quickly considering a countermeasure. Just then, the Tyrannosaurus Rex attacked again. It opened its blood-red maw, spewing out a torrent of scorching dragon flames, like a massive fiery flood, surging towards Lin Tian. Lin Tian's expression changed, and he quickly activated "Resist Fire Ring," releasing a ring of scorching flames centered on himself, attempting to withstand the dragon flame's onslaught. However, the Tyrannosaurus Rex's dragon flames were too powerful. The Resist Fire Ring shattered rapidly under the impact of the dragon flames, and Lin Tian was swept away by the aftershocks, his body flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground.
"Cough cough..." Lin Tian struggled to his feet, a trickle of blood escaping from the corner of his mouth. He knew that to defeat the Tyrannosaurus Rex, he had to use a surprise attack. He quickly downed several bottles of magic potions, recovering some of his magic power, and continued his battle with the Tyrannosaurus Rex. Lin Tian found an opening, and with a whooshing sound, his spear, powered by an enhanced rocket spell, pierced the Tyrannosaurus Rex's body. "Explode!" With a sharp shout from Lin Tian, a fiery meteor shot from the spear tip and exploded inside the Tyrannosaurus Rex. The Tyrannosaurus Rex let out a painful roar, its massive body trembling violently. It struggled forward a few steps before finally collapsing to the ground with a thud. Lin Tian stared at the fallen Tyrannosaurus Rex, breathing heavily, and downed several more bottles of magic potions to calm the surging battle aura and magic power within him. His body was covered in wounds, blood staining his clothes, but his eyes gleamed with the light of victory. After treating the wound briefly, he stepped forward and took out the level nine magic core from the Tyrannosaurus Rex, and then carefully collected valuable items such as dragon blood from the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
At this moment, Laun descended from the sky, his face filled with disbelief. He exclaimed, "You actually killed a level nine Tyrannosaurus Rex! A few days ago, when you told me you wanted to fight a peak level nine magical beast, I was genuinely surprised. You see, in the world of magical beasts, although there are levels, the difference between levels nine is like heaven and earth due to different bloodlines. Some magical beasts break through to level nine on their own, usually reaching their limit at that level. But creatures like the Tyrannosaurus Rex are born with powerful bloodlines, reaching level nine upon adulthood, and have a very high chance of advancing to the Saint-level magical beast. When they first enter level nine, they can defeat peak level nine warriors who haven't yet comprehended the laws of heaven and earth with their terrifying physical bodies. You were able to kill it, which shows that your strength has reached the peak level below the Saint-level. You know, your strength as a mage and warrior hasn't even reached level nine yet. If you break through to level nine, you might really be able to fight those Saint-level powerhouses who haven't yet comprehended the laws!"
Lin Tian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "Teacher, under your guidance and instruction over the past few years, I have experienced countless battles in the Monster Mountain Range. Each life-or-death test has given me a deeper understanding and control over my own strength. I also want to take this opportunity to test the results of my training over the years."
Laun nodded with satisfaction and said, "Slaying the Tyrannosaurus Rex has already proven that your combat strength has reached the top tier below the Saint Realm. In this Monster Mountain Range, ordinary monsters can no longer pose a substantial threat to you. Only Saint Realm monsters can allow you to continue your training. But you must understand that even the weakest Saint Realm monster, with its physical strength alone, can contend with a Saint Realm human who has not yet comprehended the laws. Before you reach Saint Realm strength, you must not rashly challenge them, otherwise you may very well fall into an abyss of no return. Let's go back. Next, you need to reflect on and consolidate this hard-won achievement."
Lin Tian nodded solemnly, knowing that what Lao En said was absolutely right. This slaying of the Tyrannosaurus Rex had greatly boosted his confidence, but it also made him clearly realize that every step on the path to power required caution. He carefully stored the Tyrannosaurus Rex's magic core and the collected items, and left the Monster Mountain Range, a place full of challenges and opportunities, with Lao En.

On his return journey, Lin Tian had already begun planning the next stage of his cultivation journey. He knew that higher peaks awaited him to climb, and stronger enemies awaited his challenge. And he would continue to forge ahead on this thorny path, driven by his thirst for power and his unwavering pursuit of his dreams.
