Both pets possessed incredibly powerful stats!

Keep in mind, they were only level 35.

Yet, the Zhu Niao's magic attack had already surpassed 10,000.

This was terrifying.

Generally speaking, magic-type pets only break 10,000 magic attack after level 50.

But Zhu Niao, at level 35, had already far exceeded that.

And the Sword Dragon's HP was also terrifying.

It could be said that level 35 players would have a very hard time killing the Sword Dragon.

It also had terrifying HP regeneration.

"Next time we enter a cave, let's not do anything. Let the two pets kill the monsters," Lin Chen said half-jokingly.

Next was opening the chests.

Lin Chen was always unlucky, so he naturally let Liu Mengyao open them.

Among the three chests, one emitted a different light. Opening the chest with the unique glow was a universally acknowledged trick among map diggers. Liu Mengyao knew this, so she immediately went up and opened it.

As Liu Mengyao selected it, the other two treasure chests disappeared.

Then Lin Chen saw the contents of the treasure chest.

[Gold Coins * 100]

[Superior Cotton Cloth * 1]

[Ten-Thousand-Year Mysterious Iron * 1]

[Qi Gathering Powder Recipe * 1]

[Earth Spirit Pill * 1]

Aside from the gold coins, the cotton cloth and mysterious iron were materials for crafting equipment, not particularly valuable. You could buy them for a few yuan now. Liu Mengyao could use the Qi Gathering Powder recipe, but that was only for restoring magic points during battle, nothing else.

The Earth Spirit Pill, on the other hand, had a chance to directly upgrade a pet's skills when consumed. Lin Chen fed it to Zhu Niao, upgrading Flame Barrage to level 2, increasing the damage coefficient to 0.3. Then they continued digging.

For the next several maps, they didn't find a cave.

The things they dug up were mostly cotton cloth and mysterious iron. It could be said to be very unlucky. Lin Chen laughed and said, "This is the *New World* I'm familiar with. So unlucky!"

"Keep digging, we'll find a cave eventually, right? Almost at the tenth map," Liu Mengyao said, in high spirits.

Sure enough, another cave appeared.

This time, Lin Chen wanted to see Zhu Niao's strength, so he was too lazy to act.

The treasure cave was level 50.

But Zhu Niao instantly killed a small monster with a single Flame Barrage.

"Worthy of being a divine bird!" Liu Mengyao rejoiced.

Over there, her Sword Dragon was not to be outdone. After rushing up and taking a beating, it unleashed a Roar. Many small monsters swarmed to attack it, but this guy relied on its innate HP regeneration skill to withstand the assault, and even continuously triggered the Roar effect, constantly reflecting damage.

The two pets could clear the field together.

Even the level 50 Boss at the end was taken down by Lin Chen with just a single Wind Blade.

Zhu Niao and Sword Dragon both reached level 39.

They could comprehend skills again.

"Divine Beast Pill for you."

Lin Chen traded with Liu Mengyao.

Then, they each fed their own pets.

"This time it's an A-grade skill, Bloodthirsty Charge."

Liu Mengyao directly informed Lin Chen of the skill's effect: "Consumes 100 HP per second to enter a charged state, increasing speed by 5 times!"

The Sword Dragon's speed wasn't slow to begin with, much faster than Zhu Niao's. After all, Zhu Niao was a turret-type output pet. But compared to Lin Chen, the Wind Mage, the Sword Dragon's speed was still much slower.

Lin Chen's speed reached 20 yards per second!

What kind of concept was that?

In the game, Lin Chen's pure running speed for 100 meters only took a little over four seconds, not even five seconds.

In combat, this kind of speed could provide tremendous help, so this was the advantage of Wind Mages... Wind Mages were not the strongest output class in the magic system, but they were definitely the magic class with the strongest survivability!

After all, Wind Mages also had skills that even allowed Lin Chen to fly in the air, increasing his speed by up to ten times.

And now that Sword Dragon had this skill, its speed was already faster than Lin Chen without using skills.

Zhu Niao awakened another forbidden spell: Solar Flame Scorch!

[Solar Flame Scorch: Zhu Niao spits out a hundred-meter flame in front of it, lasting for ten seconds, dealing damage equal to 0.75 times its own magic attack per second to all enemy targets in the area. During this period, Zhu Niao can adjust its direction. Cooldown time: 1 minute. Can be upgraded!]

The current Zhu Niao had reached level 50.

Its magic attack had reached a terrifying 30,000!

The current Zhu Niao already had the ability to fight level 70 Bosses, and could even take on level 80 elite monsters!

This was the power of extraordinary pets!

This time, the treasure chest contained three sets of superior cotton cloth and five sets of ten-thousand-year mysterious iron, plus a formation blueprint.

It was a pity that the blueprint was elementary.

It was also a defensive formation.

Generally speaking, it was only used in private residences in the game.

Lin Chen put it away.

Then he continued to dig maps.

At the same time, Zhang Chunlin delivered another ten Divine Beast Pills. By two o'clock in the afternoon, the maps were finally all dug up, Zhu Niao had also been upgraded to level 80, and had awakened two more skills.

[Zhu Niao]

[Owner: Lin Zhong Chen Xi]

[Quality: Mythical]

[Overall Growth Rating: SS+]

[Level: 80]

[Constitution: 1600]

[Strength: 800]

[Spirit: 2400]

[Agility: 800]

[HP: 32000]

[Physical Attack: 6400]

[Magic Attack: 48000]

[Movement Speed: 8 yards/second]

[Innate Skills: Southern Samadhi Fire, Sky Scorching Earth Burning, Rebirth Through Fire]

[Comprehended Skills: Flame Barrage (SSS), Solar Flame Scorch (SSS), Divine Magic Mastery (SSS), Flame Shockwave (SSS)]

[Divine Magic Mastery: All skill damage increased by 20%, all skill magic consumption reduced by 20%, and there is a 50% chance that casting will not consume magic points, and a 30% chance to restore 5% of total magic points after using a skill.]

[Flame Shockwave: After chanting for five seconds, Zhu Niao launches a flame in a specified direction, dealing damage equal to magic attack * 2 to the hit target. Cooldown time: Two minutes. Can be upgraded!]

Forty-eight thousand magic attack was not far from Lin Chen himself, who was equipped with divine gear.

Moreover, there were four SSS skills, of which Divine Magic Mastery not only increased the damage of all skills, but also completely solved Zhu Niao's mana problem.

It could be said that the current Zhu Niao had grown into a pure output turret.

In addition, two hundred superb treasure maps also allowed Lin Chen and Liu Mengyao to dig up a backpack full of crafting materials, as well as 20,000 gold coins, not to mention various blueprints… As for the Eternal Crystal that Lin Chen wanted, there wasn't a single one.

It could only be said to be very unlucky!

But there was also something that pleased Lin Chen, and that was that the one time he opened a treasure chest, he actually opened a book!

[Compendium of Talismans: After reading, you can gain 10,000 proficiency, and become familiar with various talisman crafting methods.]

This thing was simply a step up to the sky for Lin Chen's secondary profession!

Lin Chen immediately read the *Compendium of Talismans*. The 10,000 proficiency directly promoted him to a Formation Master, and a level three Formation Master at that!

"Let's go, let's go back to the city."

Lin Chen immediately called Liu Mengyao back to Sky Moon City.

The reason for returning here was because...

This place belonged to a private territory.

To put it bluntly, you could sell anything in this place, and players could buy anything.

Among them, was the entire Sky Moon City!

Lin Chen planned to buy this city!
