In the Dark Land, a river traversed the void, flowing past mountains, valleys, and forests. Beneath the water, a World Beast was hidden, occasionally staring out of the river while sensing the whereabouts of other World Beasts around it.
“What’s going on? Why have the World Beasts in this area disappeared?”
Feeling the vanished World Beasts, its heart was filled with doubt.
“Could it be that a World Beast, like me, has already started hunting?” Thinking this, it began to sense the presence of surrounding World Beasts, its detection range continuously expanding.
“There’s actually a World Beast hiding. It seems it might be the one in action!” The World Beast’s mouth split open, as if it were smiling, but it was incredibly terrifying.
Inside the cave, Yu’s body was constantly changing. The super-miniature World Beast was continuously growing stronger, and the 100,000 light points within its body were becoming increasingly intense.
Every evolution of a World Beast was like a completion of its own origin. Qin Hao observed Yu’s changes, comparing them with the third-order World Beast he had hunted, and from the evolutionary process, he deduced a more complete life structure map of the World Beast.
Just as Qin Hao was racing against time to comprehend and research, a subtle ripple transmitted into Qin Hao’s soul, awakening him from his focused state.
“A World Beast has arrived, and its aura is exceptionally powerful. It seems I need to prepare to leave this time!”
Qin Hao stood up, light flickering at his fingertips. A seven-colored light quickly condensed, and a spatial-temporal passage appeared before Qin Hao.
Qin Hao did not step into the passage but directly sent Yu into it, then closed the spatial-temporal passage.
This spatial-temporal passage was not yet perfect; it was far from being as freely usable as a World Beast’s. It could only be used for short-distance teleportation and could not transport Qin Hao himself.
After teleporting Yu away, Qin Hao directly left the cave and stood in the void, looking at the river in the distance. When choosing this place as a hiding spot, Qin Hao had made many arrangements around it to prevent other World Beasts from entering.
After all, the waters of the Dark Land were very deep, and the crisis brought by powerful World Beasts was enough for Qin Hao to take seriously.
Looking at the flowing water, Qin Hao did not hesitate in the slightest. Divine Power condensed in his hand, and an arrow shot out directly. This arrow had become Qin Hao’s commonly used secret method, condensing a trace of the Ten Great Laws Fusion. Its power was extremely strong, reaching the level of a 10th Tier True God.
Among the various forces in the Universe Sea, there were almost none that could easily deal with it; even the strongest in the Two Great Holy Lands would have to resist with all their might.
However, facing a World Beast of unknown strength, Qin Hao did not believe that this single arrow could resolve the opponent. Now, Qin Hao was ready to leave at any time.
The reason he didn’t leave immediately was simply to see how powerful this incoming World Beast truly was, and to witness what a stronger World Beast looked like.
The arrow entered the water without the violent collision he expected, as if it had simply disappeared into the water. Seeing this situation, Qin Hao’s expression became even more solemn, and his figure rapidly retreated.
Just as Qin Hao left his original position, a huge maw leaped out from under the water, biting towards where Qin Hao had been. Although it was just a simple bite, Qin Hao felt a devouring force emanate, as if even the surrounding space-time had been bitten off by the huge maw.
“Delicious taste, you must be from the Universe Sea. I didn’t expect to taste the deliciousness of the Universe Sea again.” The World Beast did not bite Qin Hao, and it did not show any anger. Instead, it looked at Qin Hao like food and spoke.
“When did you enter the Dark Land? Did you deal with all the surrounding World Beasts? Where did that World Beast that was about to advance go just now?” The World Beast did not care about any reaction from Qin Hao; instead, it spoke to itself, its tone showing no concern for Qin Hao’s response.
To it, Qin Hao seemed to be its meal now, with no possibility of resistance. Instead, the changes in the surrounding area attracted its attention more.
“That’s right, the surrounding World Beasts have been dealt with by me. As for the one just now, where do you guess it went?” Qin Hao also didn’t care about the attitude of the World Beast in front of him; instead, he said with interest.
From the aura of the World Beast in front of him, Qin Hao had already determined that it was not simple, very likely a fourth-order World Beast, or even a fifth-order World Beast. Its powerful strength was also a top-tier existence in the Dark Land, but even so, Qin Hao was confident that he could handle it and leave.
Without much unnecessary talk, a long sword appeared in Qin Hao’s hand. Sword light flickered on the long sword, directly attacking the World Beast.
“One Sword Splits the Sky!” The sword light flew out, as if it wanted to tear apart the surrounding darkness, as if it had directly opened up the entire world of the Dark Land.
This sword was also a new secret method Qin Hao had comprehended. The secret method contained the Ten Great Laws Fusion and Qin Hao’s comprehension of the Source of Life. With one strike, not only was the attack extremely powerful, but it could also weaken the opponent’s Source of Life, severely injuring the enemy from their origin.
Streaks of sword light continuously intertwined, becoming stronger as they intertwined, and undergoing tremendous changes, instantly forming a giant net woven from sword light.
The giant net formed by the sword light completely enveloped the World Beast. The surrounding space-time was also completely affected at this moment, making it impossible to avoid, and it might even have to face endless sword light.
“Annoying aura!” The World Beast looked at the sword net formed by the sword light, a strong sense of disgust flashing in its eyes. As if greatly stimulated, streaks of light continuously flickered from its mouth, and powerful energy continuously swept everything around, directly colliding with the sword net.
However, the sword light did not completely disappear. As streaks of sword light vanished, new streaks of sword light were continuously bred, constantly filling the surrounding void, and still attacking the World Beast.
“Fifth-order World Beast!”
Seeing the attack of the World Beast in front of him, Qin Hao quickly made a judgment. Although the energy of the World Beast in front of him could not be determined, every attack contained the profound mystery of destruction, which only a fifth-order World Beast could achieve.
Seeing this, Qin Hao became even more cautious. The leap in strength from fourth-order to fifth-order was a super leap. The World Beast’s World Power reserves were already comparable to a True God who had embarked on the God Power Route, plus the profound mystery of destruction in its energy attacks, its strength was absolutely not simple.
The power it was currently displaying was just a facade, observing himself and also trying to confuse himself. Qin Hao quickly made a judgment in his heart, and at the same time, he had already decided that he could not continue fighting the World Beast in front of him.
