Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

However, even after getting pierced by the white golden arrow, the giant beast didn't seem to be affected. It was still standing firmly.

'What's going on? I thought this crossbow to be very powerful. Why isn't anything happening to that giant beast after the arrow shot it?’ Zachary thought to himself, confused. After seeing what had happened, he felt rather disappointed.

However, the next moment, the giant beast suddenly collapsed and fell to the ground with a loud thud. Consequently, the fierce force that was approaching Zachary had also disappeared accordingly.

"Yes. Besides, isn't this also your suggestion, Master Tania?" Zachary replied rather calmly.

"Yes, I suggested it because I thought of the possibility. But the final decision will still be up to you," Tania replied.

"If you think that it is possible, then I'm more than convinced to try it. There's no need to hesitate," Zachary said confidently.

"Fine. In any normal way, it is actually impossible for an Imperial Level warrior to get the septuple martial speed. However, a few years ago, I accidentally learned of an ancient alchemy skill that has almost been lost through time. It is specially used to cure some diseases related to congenital deformity of meridians by grafting them inside the human body. Over recent years, I have been carefully studying this meridian grafting skill, and I'm still trying to improve it so it can be used for other purposes. Now, you understand why it can be dangerous," Tania said as she stared at Zachary.
