My Avatar is Becoming the Ultimate BOSS-Chapter 755 - 393: Little Nian Beast vs. Lin Xingshi, Zhou Jiuya, Demon Arrival Night

The Little Nian Beast hung its head, silently pacing through the forest. The sea breeze gently caressed its soft fur, causing the maple trees to rustle.

Soon, it passed through the waterfall and entered the massive mountain cave.

At this moment, the Little Nian Beast looked up to see a large gathering of White Goat Demon clansmen in the cave used for meetings. These small lambs huddled together, emitting a pure white halo from the tops of their horns.

The halo, like fireflies, dispersed and enveloped the injured Bai Tanlang, the Year Beast Monarch, and the Mad Bull Demon.

The Little Nian Beast remained silent, lying at the entrance of the waterfall cave, feeling the cool damp breeze, quietly observing the scene.

Time passed slowly, and visibly, the injuries of the Year Beast Monarch gradually healed, but there was still no sign of awakening.

Though as one of the most ordinary members of their clan, the combined power of the White Goat Demons was nowhere near as extraordinary as that of the fortunate one chosen for the Zodiac Team. Yet by gathering together, they could just barely manage to heal the Monarch and the injured Zodiac Team members.

Meanwhile, the Dragon Cat had already curled up on the mat, deeply asleep.

The Spirit Monkey Demon sat gloomily at the mouth of the cave, taking large bites out of a peach. It didn't hold a grudge against the Little Nian Beast for deceiving it, but only stared blankly at the waterfall cascading at the entrance.

Among the survivors, the Year Beast Monarch, the Mad Bull Demon, and Bai Tanlang sustained the most severe injuries and remained unconscious after returning.

After a short while, once the White Goat Demons completed their healing work, they filed out of the cave.

In their place, the Rat Demon returned. It had been hiding at the foot of the mountain, using its acute hearing to gather information about Hai Fan City, and returned only after confirming that Lake Hunting had no intention of storming the mountain.

"Child, you..."

At the sight of the Little Nian Beast, the Rat Demon was overwhelmed with tears, even wetting the whiskers at the sides of its mouth.

With a loud "wah," it burst into tears, stumbling as it rushed towards the Little Nian Beast, arms outstretched, eyes blurred by tears, but was disdainfully pushed away by the Little Nian Beast with its paw.

"You're finally back! I was so worried! You did well, you did well!" the Rat Demon exclaimed.

"Go, go, I'm going to sleep, don't bother me." After saying this, the Little Nian Beast turned and walked away without looking back.

With a burst of Demon Flame from its feet, it momentarily evaporated the rushing waterfall, its tiny form swirling like a falling leaf, landing among the forest.

Afterward, as usual, the Little Nian Beast found a branch of a towering tree to lie down on.

For some unknown reason, that night, the Little Nian Beast lay restless on the branch, an inexplicable anxiety and unease in its heart, feeling as if something important had been overlooked, something that should be related to "Lake Hunting."

However, after a series of events, its body and mind were exhausted to the limit, so it did not pursue the thought further.

Thus, it tapped the Lantern Demon gently with its paw, lowered its head in quiet contemplation for a while, then fell into a deep sleep to the roar of the waterfall.

The forest was silent, marking a quiet night.

Overnight, the Little Nian Beast's fame spread across Hai Fan Mountain, having saved the Year Beast Monarch and briefly repelled three members of Lake Hunting single-handedly, thus rescuing the Zodiac Team members — a series of feats quickly circulated among the multitude of demons on the mountain, making the Little Nian Beast the center of attention.

The "Reputation Value" in the Character Panel naturally received a significant boost.

The next day, as the first ray of morning light filtered through the treetops into the forest, illuminating the Little Nian Beast's head, it slowly opened its eyes.

At this moment, a purple-red prompt box floated before it. It rubbed its eyes with a paw, let out a long yawn, drowsily looking at the words on the panel.

[Congratulations, the prestige level of Body No. 4 "Little Nian Beast" has increased from "Novice" to "Emerging," with some progress remaining to the next prestige "King's Appearance."]

[You have completed the "Ruler" cultivation task in the Character Cultivation System: for each prestige level increased, the Little Nian Beast receives one attribute point.]

[You have obtained "1" attribute point and currently have 1 unallocated attribute point. Would you like to allocate it immediately?]

The Little Nian Beast yawned and mumbled, "Looks like I'll need to inherit the position from the Monarch to fully complete the tasks and cultivation system."

It raised its paw, pressed the "Allocate Immediately" option, and the Attribute Panel popped up.

[The basic attributes of "Body No. 4" are as follows:

Strength: S++ Level (This attribute directly affects the "physical quality" of the Little Nian Beast);

Speed: S++ Level (This attribute directly affects the Little Nian Beast's "nerve response" and "instantaneous explosive force");

Spirit: S Level (This attribute affects the Little Nian Beast's "Demon Flame intensity" and "duration of the Demon Flame")]

"By the looks of it, there's still plenty of room to improve the Spirit Attribute; it requires three attribute points to reach the cap. Never mind, let's focus on speed for now,"

The Little Nian Beast did not think much, it raised its paw and pressed on the "Speed" attribute, holding it down.

Soon, a purple-red prompt box popped up in its view.

[The "Speed Attribute" of "Body No. 4 'Little Nian Beast'" has changed — S++ Level → SS Level (has reached the body cap attribute)]

It closed the panel, and at this moment, in the distance, a man wearing a white cloak, with a white glaze over his eyes, slowly approached.

Bai Tanlang lifted his head towards the sunlight, looking at the Little Nian Beast on the branch, "Is my Demon Crown with you?"

The Little Nian Beast raised an eyebrow slightly, looked down, meeting his gaze.

"Yes, I think it works better with me, don't you think?" the Little Nian Beast asked.

When it returned last night, it had already stored the Demon Crown using its human form Space Ability — Space Claw into its private space. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

This was a great treasure for it, though like "Demon Arrival" it eroded the user's sanity, posing risks if worn for too long.

Bai Tanlang remained silent for a while before speaking gravely:

"Should you inherit the throne from the Monarch, I will hand over the Demon Crown to you. It's not the time, however."

He paused, "But before the next battle, the crown should remain with you."

"They call me the little crown prince, yet I don't even get such treatment," the Little Nian Beast sighed.

"Additionally... the Monarch wishes to see you," Bai Tanlang continued.

"Okay, I'll go see him now," the Little Nian Beast said, stretching lazily before tumbling down from the tree and walking away through the sunlight-laden forest, stepping on fallen maple leaves.
