"Damn it! What on earth has this stupid cat been eating all these years? He has grown so much stronger! I just used the Star Shield, an heirloom of my family, to engage him in a physical duel, but we were only evenly matched!"
The Sky-boring Rat was cursing inwardly as it made its escape.
This ancient Star Shield was considered a family heirloom among the Drilling Sky Mouse Clan. There were seven of them in total. Because he had been collecting resources everywhere and making significant contributions to his family over the years, he had only recently been rewarded with this Star Shield to serve as an ultimate defensive weapon.
What surprised the Sky-boring Rat was that despite having consumed a red pill, increasing his cultivation by half a minor realm and rendering his physical body much stronger than before, he could only fight on par with the Nine-tailed Spirit Cat when using the Star Shield, the clan's most treasured item. How could this not astonish him?
