Chapter 179: Chapter 179: Evil East, Poisonous West (Extra update for 300 monthly votes, requesting subscription)

Ding! Your team has successfully weakened the 45-level normal boss, Wanyan Kang, to a near-death state, gaining 100,000 points in experience and 50,000 points in cultivation!

Ding! Because the 45-level normal boss Wanyan Kang that your team heavily damaged is a special storyline NPC, the equipment pick-up phase is automatically omitted. The equipment dropped by this boss will be automatically distributed to the team members' item slots according to the team contribution distribution mode. Please check by yourselves.

What's the situation here, what's the deal with pushing the boss into a near-death state, isn't that the same as not killing it?

If the boss isn't killed, what's with rewarding before the end?
