Chapter 75: There’s a Transparent Crystal in the Giant Beast’s Body

The giant beast howled and lowered its head to bite the leopard on the legs, its long and thick tail sweeping the loose rocks off the ground and making them dance in the air.
The quick-witted Parker crawled behind the giant beast’s leg, grabbing its tail and flipping over onto its back.
Bai Qingqing’s tight heart slightly relaxed. This scene was familiar to her—it was just like the first day she transmigrated to this world, the battle where Parker rescued her from the pack of wolves.
Although the enemy was powerful and Parker was the weaker opponent, he took the initiative.
Parker bit the giant beast ferociously behind its neck, his four claws tightly gripping onto the giant beast’s thick and tough fur. His body was tossed about and he very nearly was tossed away. However, he very quickly found the trick—to never let go of his bite.
Vertebrates’ nerves were gathered in their spine. Not sure where Parker had bitten, but the giant beast’s body suddenly collapsed and its humongous body fell, making a great impact with the ground.
The giant beast couldn’t move its body, but it could still move its neck. It was now lying on the ground and haphazardly biting with its mouth.
With this, it was harder for Parker to continue biting the giant beast, for he would easily be bitten by it. He had no choice but to let go of the giant beast and run around it in circles.
Bai Qingqing felt for the snake scale hanging from her neck with a strand of red hair, removed it, and started walking towards them.
“Parker!”
“Roar!” Upon hearing Bai Qingqing walking over, Parker abruptly turned around. He nudged Bai Qingqing’s tummy with his head, causing her to retreat several steps.
Bai Qingqing quickly said, “You can try using this. It’s Cortis’s scale, it’s very sharp.”
Parker took a look at the snake scale and red hair and grimaced. Still, he transformed into a human and took the scale from her, not forgetting to remind her not to come over.
Bai Qingqing nodded her head repeatedly. “I’ll just stand here.”
Parker moved closer to the back of the giant beast’s head. With lightning speed, he sliced it at the neck area.
The giant beast’s skin was thick like armor. Just the sharpness of the scale alone wasn’t enough to hurt it. However, Parker had enormous strength, so even using the small snake scale, he instantly sliced an opening in the giant beast’s neck.
The giant beast let out an agonizing cry as it forcefully turned its head.
Parker, however, didn’t dodge. At the moment before the giant beast could open its mouth, he swiped at its wound several more times.
Blood gushed out instantly. With its humongous size, the giant beast spilled a lot of blood, which came gushing out like a fire-fighting pump, drenching the ground in mere moments.
Despite standing tens of meters away, blood was spewed onto Bai Qingqing. She touched the bloody specks on her face and let out a long exhale. “This beast is finally dead.”
Parker tossed away the snake scale necklace and said in a displeased tone, “Surprisingly, the snake beastman’s scale is pretty sharp.”
Bai Qingqing said nothing, merely quietly walked over and picked up the bloody snake scale from the pool of blood.
She sized up the giant beast’s corpse for a moment and then said, “I heard from Cortis that there’s an energy crystal in a giant beast’s body. I wonder if there’s any in this one.”
Parker suddenly recalled this as well. He replied with uncertainty, “Perhaps.”
He then walked to the giant beast’s corpse and, transforming his hand into a claw, reached for the giant beast’s stomach. His sharp nails dug into the giant beast’s thick skin. When he forcefully tugged with both his hands, with a sound of fabric tearing, the giant beast’s stomach was ripped open.
It sounded like a shovel was being dug into the wet mud. Shivering, Bai Qingqing covered her ears with her hands.
Parker reached into the giant beast’s stomach, and shortly after, let out a gasp. “Eh? There really is one. Look, Qingqing.”
As Parker raised his bloody hands, his fingers were holding up a transparent crystal, which reflected seven colors under the light.
It was identical to the energy crystal Cortis paid the sheep beastmen with.
While Bai Qingqing was curiously staring at the energy crystal, she heard Parker say, “This is a transparent crystal, it can replenish energy. When one is completely exhausted, it can be used to save one’s life. There’s also a green-colored crystal, which has the effect of prolonging lifespan—it can only be found in herbivorous giant beasts. But it’s said that herbivorous giant beasts are even larger in size and harder to kill.”
