A moment later, one thousand points appeared on Li Yun's Frosthunt Token. Together with what he had already collected, his total had now passed two thousand.
Unfortunately, his luck was nowhere near as good over the next few days. He ran into several groups of Frost Beasts and killed a few Commander-class beasts, but he did not come across another Monarch-class Frost Beast.
As a result, his points grew much more slowly, and after several days he had gained only a few hundred more. Compared with how quickly he had started, the difference was enormous.
Then one day, while Li Yun was crossing yet another snowfield, the ground ahead of him suddenly moved. Snow exploded upward, and a hidden figure burst out from beneath the surface and slashed straight at him.
The attack was frighteningly fast. A blood-red arc of blade light, accompanied by a strange demonic howl, reached Li Yun almost instantly.
His expression did not change.
"I've been waiting for you."
