[Hunter] begins to loot the abilities of the slain creatures and returns them to himself.

After defeating a large monster, the 'Great Water Serpent,' which measured over ten meters in length, had light green scales and a massive snake head, Link sensed that his strength had increased. Following the defeat of a giant crystal turtle, his stamina improved.

The waters that could deprive adventurers of their lives have now become Link's exclusive experience pool.

Link killed countless monsters in the water.

After realizing that the siege was futile, fewer and fewer monsters continued to join the attack.

Link also noticed this situation.

After eliminating the remaining monsters, he slowly swam back to shore.

"Link…," Alise exclaimed, noticing Link's perfect mermaid physique as he emerged from the water, her face flushing.

"It's too dangerous to fight in the water! Are you okay?"

"I'm fine; those monsters weren't strong. Let's move on to the next level."

"Okay!"

Everyone couldn't help but be impressed by Link's strength.

This kind of power has definitely surpassed LV.3 and even exceeded LV.4.

Under Link's leadership, the group successfully reached the 26th floor.

Link returned to the water, and after a killing spree, he slowly led the girls while continuing to fight, eventually arriving at the vicinity of the Giant Cang Waterfall.

In the area near Waterfall, hundreds of scarlet slashes flew across the sky, accompanied by splashing water…

This is Flash Swallow.

Flash Swallow is known as the fastest monster in the lower area.

This crimson creature prefers to build its nest on the cliff within Waterfall, using the natural waterfall to protect himself.

Therefore, to defend his lair, whenever someone dares to approach the waterfall, he attacks from the air at a speed that allows it to traverse the majestic waterfall quickly.

Flash Swallow is also one of Link's targets this time.

"Protect yourselves; I'll give this monster a chance!"

Link gazed at these creatures, which appeared as only flying red lines due to their incredible speed, and smiled.

Under the girls' watchful eyes, he spotted a small patch of land beside the waterfall and gripped the knife handle tightly with both hands.

Next…!

Scarlet flashes zapped past.

With the dynamic vision of the naked eye, it was impossible to track its movements. Link sensed the attack and blocked it with his knife, but he retreated two steps due to the excessive impact.

It was like a bullet fired from a sniper rifle.

Then came the second shot.

The scarlet blur darted towards Link's chest this time, and Link immediately swung his sword.

Without waiting for him to react, the third and fourth strikes also came at him. 

Because he wanted to hone his reaction ability and speed, Link did not release the Zanpakutō or use any other skills.

Thus, although Link managed to kill one with his own perception, the other's attack knocked him off balance, causing him to fall unpleasantly into the shallows. 

Scream...!

Scream...!

The terrifying sounds coming from the wind overlapped ominously.

Link looked around and saw that there were more than thirty footprints that could be identified simultaneously with the naked eye. 

Flash Swallow launched a group attack and dozens of "bullets" rushed towards him.

His eyes could barely discern them, so Link simply closed his eyes.

There is a very simple way to release the Zanpakutō or use a wind barrier to block the attack, but this would defeat the purpose of training... 

Every time she cut open the enemy's body, Link's skin was torn by the sharp beak, adding many new scars. Yet, every flying bird that attacked was cut in two by Link, becoming bloody pieces of flesh. Just as Link risked his life to train, Shan Yan also began to play with hers! 

Due to his injuries, Link's combat power gradually increased, and the speed at which he swung his sword reached a point where it was blurry and difficult to distinguish.

Furthermore, as the [Hunter] continued to plunder the "speed" of the slain Flash Swallow, and after receiving significant agility corrections from Flash Swallow, Link's sword became faster and more accurate, allowing him to slice through Flash Swallow's body precisely each time, turning the crimson meteor into flying ash. 

"So… so amazing…!"

"No wonder… he can become so strong!"

The girls hid behind a rock, staring at Link with their eyes closed, using only their senses to identify Flash Swallow's attacks as a way to train themselves, disbelief evident in their eyes.

No wonder the adventurers called him the "fastest," as he reached level 3 in just a month!

Rumors were only rumors.

Only when they witnessed this scene did Alise, Kaguya, and the girls following them truly grasp the real reason why Link grew stronger.

The girls finally understood it was about entering the water to fight aquatic monsters and using swallows for training.

These were things other adventurers were afraid to face, but he embraced them as tests to improve himself.

Could such a person not be strong?

The last quick gulp was also taken down.

Link breathed a sigh of relief and stood there a moment longer, digesting the experience of the recent battle.

Suddenly, he sensed someone nearby in the pool with him.

Someone?

Link quickly turned his head to look, and what he saw was a mermaid.

His sudden movement seemed to catch the mermaid off guard, and she tilted her head in surprise.

This mermaid was different from those monsters!

Link recognized this right away.

Just as he was about to approach her, he saw the mermaid suddenly dive into the water.

Immediately afterward, several more mermaids emerged from the depths.

The new mermaids did not possess those kinds of human eyes; their eyes were bloodthirsty scarlet...

Link delivered a merciless slash.

He picked up some shining magic stones, and the mermaid from before swam back, quietly hiding in the distance to watch.

Link had a certain guess in mind.

In this case, it was most likely a "Xenos" living among monsters and adventurers. However, whenever Link tried to get close, the mermaid would flee.

When kept at a distance, the mermaid silently observed from afar.

Now that his purpose of sharpening through the lightning swallows had been achieved, Link no longer paid attention to the mermaid's prying eyes.

He walked over to Alise and the girls and ascended to the 27th floor with them.

Not long after...

"Roar! Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going...!!!"

The tremendous roar shook the 27th floor and even the entire third floor of the "Mystery of Water."

Link and the others finally faced the floor master!

The enormous body, wrapped in chalk-like scales, evoked a sense of solemnity.

The massive figure stood more than 20 meters tall and was entirely white.

The neck was forked and extended from the point where it connected to the body, covering every part. It could be described as resembling a plate.

There were enormous dragon scales like a hard shell, with blue eyes on the left side of the head and red eyes on the right side, but there was no doubt that they all conveyed a majestic and solemn dragon appearance...

It was the master of the 27th floor, the two-headed dragon "Amphisbaena"

Level 6 floor master monster!
