Chapter 761: Returning to the Tribe
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Daddy, these people who came from somewhere else are getting more and more absurd. We've been watching that Typhoon Tree on Howling Wind Mountain for 30 years. It bore fruit only two days ago, and those people stole half of it!" said a young man in agitation to a man wearing a white headcloth.
"Yes." The man in the white headcloth narrowed his eyes, falling into silence. His strong stature made him look like a fierce leopard.
"Daddy, are we just going to—"
"Shh." Gu Zha put his index finger to his son's lips, shaking his head slightly. "Speak cautiously, act cautiously."
"Daddy! The uncles in the tribe only listen to you. That new king is using our tribe's resources to develop his own tribes, like a bunch of leeches!"
"Gu Duo, you must control your temper." Gu Zha shook his head, growing quiet as he looked out the window.
"Daddy…" Gu Duo looked at his father in despair. He didn't understand why.
Why wouldn't his father stand out and speak? Why wouldn't his father lead? Many people in the tribe were complaining.
"We are all from the human race. What's the loss in helping them?" Gu Zha shook his head. There were too many short-sighted people in the tribe. Of course, this wasn't their fault, since they had all lived mediocre lives since birth, so they only needed to see what was in front of them.
"But… we can't just let those newcomers ruin the tribe." Gu Zha thought in silence. It wasn't that he didn't see what had been happening recently, but as a fanatic who wanted to lead the human race towards a renaissance, he knew this development had more disadvantages than advantages.
Currently, the Li Tribe was like a stagnant pond; only through moderate controlled competition could this stagnant pond begin moving again. Only then can the human tribes radiate a new vitality!
"His Majesty is back!" In the sky outside, a large blue-winged bird with a kangaroo-like pocket on its belly flew by, loud human speech coming out of its mouth. "His Majesty is back!!"
"He's back." Gu Duo was stunned.
Gu Zha's eyes twinkled as he patted Gu Duo on the shoulder. "Let's go see His Majesty."
"But…"
"No buts! He's the king of our Li Tribe now, a king who received the unanimous vote of all Saint-tier elders!" Gu Zha said with dignity.
"Okay… Understood."
They arrived at the palace in the center of the tribe, where many tribal officials had already gathered after hearing the news. Many were exclaiming at the arrival of the newcomers.
"Elder Gu Zha is here."
"I heard His Majesty is back?"
"His Majesty just returned, haha."
In the palace, listening to the conversation outside, Gao Peng turned around. From the second floor windowsill, he saw a robust man in the crowd below.
It looked like… Gu Zha?
He had left an impression on Gao Peng because Gu Zha's strength was among the top five of all the Li Tribe's elders. He was old, powerful, and had a high reputation. He also had a familiar that could divinate. It could tell if something was auspicious or not, which was very rare. He was one of the tribe's twelve elders.
After a while, the front door of the palace opened. The elders swarmed in like a school of fish.
In the lobby of the palace, Gao Peng sat on a chair. A 16-foot tall Hell's Three-Headed Dog laid before him. Even though it laid on the ground, it was much taller than Gao Peng.
The Hell's Three-Headed Dog's heads all opened their eyes wide and looked at Gao Peng with fawning gazes. Their tongues hung out, and a strong sulfuric smell came out of their mouths, filling the air in the palace.
Gu Zha took a step forward and said softly, "King, I have something to report."
"Go ahead." The meat in his hand had been licked clean by the Three-Headed Dog. Gao Peng turned his head.
"A year ago, the Huaxia Tribe, White Dragon Tribe, Green God Tribe, and Youhu Tribe all migrated here. With the number of migrants increasing over the course of the year, there have been many conflicts. Some people even use the tribe's public resources in your name."
The other elders all stared at him in shock. They hadn't expected Gu Zha to be so direct, saying these things in front of His Majesty and not fearing he would become angry.
After a brief moment of silence, Gao Peng said, "Do what you need to do to take care of it. You don't have to consider my feelings."
"Understood!" Gu Zha bowed with his hands folded into fists.
After they discussed other topics with the rest of the elders, the elders gradually left. When the last elder exited the palace, Gao Peng exhaled.
Many things had happened over the year.
The most obvious change was that the four tribes were set up dozens of miles away from the Li Tribe. They were the divisions of the Huaxia Tribe, White Dragon Tribe, Youhu Tribe, and Green God Tribe. Gao Peng had previously told the Li Tribe officials to look after the other four tribes at first, but this order was distorted as time passed.
It became a way for the four tribes to do dishonorable things using Gao Peng's name. Since he had found out… then Gao Peng definitely had to take care of it.
"Listen up! Gao Peng is my distant cousin. We don't want this entire corpse; just give us the monster core crystal!" An arrogant voice resounded throughout the mountain.
"Our great king wouldn't have such a shameless relative as you!" said a young man on the side through gritted teeth.
"Hmph, why not? Look, here's a picture of me with your king. This was when he was eight. He used to be a brat back then, so I had to take him to an internet cafe." Ji Fang sneered, taking a photo out of his pocket to wave before these fools.
He found this photo to be incredibly useful. No, it was his cousin Gao Peng's reputation that was super useful. He could collect so much treasure without any effort.
"What are you saying?" A cold voice came from above.
Ji Fang raised his head. Since the sunlight was dazzling, he could only squint to see a giant black shadow.
A man sat on the back of the black shadow. Ji Fang thought, "Could it be…?" He was somewhat surprised.
He didn't get a chance to say anything when a cold reproach drowned out his thoughts. "Take them away!"
Ji Fang's experiences over the past few months had made him somewhat arrogant, but he wasn't stupid. He recognized the voice as Gao Peng's. Everything he had now, he had obtained with his cousin's reputation. He didn't dare to stir up anything when Gao Peng was there in person.
In the following few days, Gao Peng's strict and effective executions awed everyone.
Everyone who has profited using Gao Peng's name had to return all the materials they had swindled to the original owner. If they could not, then they had to repay using items of equal value or write an IOU with high interest, and that was only the most basic of requirements.
Aside from that, Gao Peng punished many monster trainers, regardless of his relationship with them. If they did something wrong, they were punished.
The whole time, Gao Peng only sent out Silly, who easily suppressed every monster trainer. No one could pull any tricks in front of a Space-type Quasi God.
Although Silly was very adorable, it was a true Space Quasi God.
On the other hand, in the palace, Gao Peng asked with shock, "None of you want this Devil-Thorn Storm-Off characteristic?"
Goldie shook its head frantically. It couldn't imagine what it would look like with spikes on its back and five tails. That was practically a nightmare
"Ugly!" Da Zi wrinkled its nose in distaste. Strength was only temporary, but beauty was permanent.
"Doesn't suit me." Dumby shook its head. It already had the Eye of Vanity characteristic, so it wasn't particularly interested in this one.
"I mean, other people fight for this special characteristic, yet you guys despise it." Gao Peng was getting a headache. Suddenly, he saw a certain three-headed lap dog lying in the corner.
Gao Peng's expression shifted.
Sahara, who was lying in the corner, didn't notice anything. It just observed its surroundings excitedly with its tongues hanging out. Every now and then it bit one of its heads.

Chapter 762: Gatekeeping
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
An old saying said that lap dogs received nothing in the end. But at the same time, there was a contradictory old saying—lap dogs receive everything in the end.
"Everything…" The Li Tribe elders watched this big dog run wildly across the grassy field in shock.
A couple of days earlier, it had still been a very typical Hell's Three-Headed Dog, but that day, it became a spiky monster hybrid of a porcupine and a three-headed dog.
"Awoo—"
"Woof woof woof!"
"Awoo—"
The three heads let out loud barks, dashing over the yard to their heart's content.
In the past year, Sahara had eaten a lot and gained a lot of strength. The first time they had met, the creature was only Level-71, barely at the Overlord tier.
Now, it was at Level-86. Although it was still Epic-grade, it had two special characteristics.
However, Sahara's first ability was rather useless. It was called Gatekeeper, and it was pretty common. All it did was increase strength and speed. Increasing strength and speed was never bad—no matter the time, strength and speed were the most important assets in battle. They were also key links, cornerstones. But as cornerstones, strength and speed could be increased.
When one increased a monster's level, strength and speed increased proportionately, but some special abilities wouldn't increase even when their level increased, like Devil-Thorn Storm-Off.
"Is it Your Majesty's familiar?" asked an elder.
"No." Gao Peng shook his head. "He's my familiar's pet."
The elder looked at Sahara on the grass that gave off a Saint-tier aura and fell into contemplation.
Goldie heard their conversation, and jumped out to exclaim, "My pet! What do you think of my pet?"
"Uh…" The elder was astonished. He had thought the king was kidding. Was this Saint-tier three-headed dog really just a familiar's pet? The elder felt like his world had turned upside down.
Not only him, but but the other elders on the side were also amazed. They even had a sense of indescribable oddness.
The elders all had their theories.
"It wasn't like this yesterday…"
"Yeah, this is my first time seeing a three-headed dog that turned into a porcupine."
"Could its father be a Hell's Porcupine?"
What could Gao Peng say? Was he supposed to mention that it would grow five tails in a while? What would they think then, that the grandfather of this Hell's Three-Headed Dog was, in fact, a Hell's Scorpion…?
"I just promoted its attributes. It has evolved now," Gao Peng explained.
The other elders' expressions changed when they heard this.
"Evolution takes time and outside stimulus. Send your familiars to fight with it," Gao Peng said.
The elders were hesitant. They weren't stupid; they noticed things from Gao Peng's actions. Over the past year, the Li Tribe had some conflicts with the four big tribes. The four big tribes had been severely punished by the king, and now it was their turn, except His Majesty was using a gentler method.
This was only the pet of one of His Majesty's familiars. Even if they won, it wouldn't be honorable or affect the king's reputation, but if they lost, it would be a great disgrace.
"Haha, all right. It's my opportunity to see how Your Majesty raises familiars." Gu Zha laughed gallantly without a trace of concern.
Gao Peng sat on a chair, smiling with his back to everyone.
"But… Your Majesty needs to watch out. My familiar is also a Saint-tier, but it's at the peak."
"That's fine. If you kill it, I can get a new pet."
"Awoo…" Sahara turned around to gaze at Gao Peng bitterly.
Gu Zha stretched out his right hand, distorting the air. A dazzling purple light enveloped the entire area as a colossal monster descended from the sky.
It was a humongous centipede that was over 65 feet in length. Its upper body stood tall like a giant serpent coiled on the plain. Its body had 67 segments in total. Each segment's backshell had a pair of small, sharp, light pink wings.
The gigantic centipede flicked its greenish-black tongue, and a vicious aura came from inside.

[Monster Description: A vicious centipede that lives in marshes, it has a large stature and is aggressive and belligerent. Sometimes, it even eats its own kind when it's low on food. This Gigantic Demon Centipede is a rare mutated variant. Its heart is stronger than others of its kind.
The Gigantic Demon Centipede's giant tail swept across the ground. At the same time, it released a dense crimson fog from its mouth. The soil and plants it touched corroded instantly.
The area of the crimson fog became a restricted zone. Sahara's middle black and white head frowned, its two big eyes showing a human-like expression of shock as it dashed away wildly to evade the dense fog.
Behind it, the Gigantic Demon Centipede pursued savagely, leaving ruins in its path.
Even Sahara didn't dare face this giant centipede upfront. It could only run wildly to avoid its attacks, while also looking for an opportunity to strike back.
Goldie, who was standing behind Gao Peng, lowered its head to look at Gao Peng's back. From this angle, it couldn't see Gao Peng's face, only the thick, glossy black hair on his head.
After a moment of hesitation, Goldie raised its head to look at Sahara and said loudly to the dog, "Hey, you three fools! I order you, from now until the end of battle, you're the gatekeepers of this door!"
After it said this, Goldie took out a small item to put on the ground, a wooden door the size of one's palm. Rather than a door, it was more like a children's toy.
Gao Peng turned his head slightly and saw the wooden door by his feet, which wasn't even four inches tall and could be crushed with a single step. He couldn't help but take a deep breath. He was astonished by Goldie's actions.
Sahara, on the other hand, had just escaped an attack from the Gigantic Demon Centipede and rolled over on the ground. Its six little eyes all saw the door on the ground at the same time.
A door?! The six dog pupils narrowed to slits, their gazes instantly growing piercing.
Report chapter
In a split second, an inexplicable change occurred in the atmosphere surrounding the Three-Headed Dog.
If one had to describe it, the change was due to its aura turning ferocious!
Menacing!
Wild, like a brutal and gigantic crocodile floating to the surface from the depths of the wetlands.
Gao Peng could tell that this was probably the effect of its Gatekeeper characteristic.
The Hell's Three-Headed Dog stopped moving backward. For the first time, it turned its head and looked straight at the Gigantic Demon Centipede viciously.
The Gigantic Demon Centipede spared it no mercy and threw its tremendous body at the Three-Headed Dog. Its speed increased sharply to the point that they could only see a blurry and distorted image.
There was a massive boom!
Sahara narrowly dodged the sharp claws of the Gigantic Demon Centipede, which brushed past its shoulder.
With a wail from its leftmost head, it bit down on the Gigantic Demon Centipede's shoulder.
The two of them passed by each other in a flash.
By force of habit, Sahara tumbled further on the ground for hundreds of feet before coming to a halt.
The Gigantic Demon Centipede turned around. Due to the structure of its body, its turning movement was more sluggish.
There was a faint white mark on the part of its body that had been bitten earlier by Sahara.
Gu Zha's raised eyebrows lowered slightly as well. Only it knew of the anxiety it felt deep down.
If it couldn't even beat a pet of the King's familiar, it would be completely humiliated.
It seemed now that this fellow's attacking ability couldn't even break the Gigantic Demon Centipede's protective outer shell. It seemed that there was no need to be overly worried, since the dog couldn't even break its defenses. What more was there to worry about?
After triggering its Gatekeeper characteristic, Sahara immediately changed its earlier pattern of avoidance. It wandered around openly and repeatedly carried out sneak attacks on the Gigantic Demon Centipede.
The only problem was that this didn't have much of an effect… After ten minutes, the Gigantic Demon Centipede merely had a few more small, inconsequential wounds.
On the other hand, although Sahara had conserved its energy, despite the vigorous exercise, it was obvious that it had used up a lot of its stamina as well.
As another bolt of lightning came to attack it, a hint of disdain appeared in the Gigantic Demon Centipede's eyes.
It lifted its claws and habitually slapped the bolt of lightning away with two popping noises.
Its claws suddenly hurt. The Gigantic Demon Centipede lowered its head and saw that its chest had been punctured and now had numerous little pinholes.
Hissing sounds of irritation echoed throughout the wastelands and the sky.
The Gigantic Demon Centipede had initially thought that this was just a game that it could casually play. It hadn't expected to actually be injured.
After another boom, a terrifying aura of power and pressure was released from within the centipede's body.
At the same time, a pink territory was released from its body. Everything within the territory was being corroded continuously. Pink streams of air spinning at high speeds drifted through the territory.
Sahara became calm the moment it came into contact with this scent.
The frenzy on all three of its faces vanished without a trace, and its expressions looked totally calm.
It looked like a wise monk.
This was especially true for the black and white dog-head in the middle. Its brow was relaxed, and it was gazing ahead with empty eyes.
It looked calm yet sad.
Gao Peng was sitting and watching from the sidelines. He thought to himself, "This is probably the suppression that was mentioned in the description of the Gigantic Demon Centipede Leader's special characteristics. Its effect is to suppress anything physically smaller than it."
Sahara was physically smaller in size compared to the Gigantic Demon Centipede. No one could know how much of its power was being suppressed right now.
This time, the Gigantic Demon Centipede didn't hold back. Its speed increased nearly twofold from its earlier speed.
Coupled with the suppression the Gigantic Demon Centipede was using, the speed at which Sahara's Gatekeeper characteristic was intensifying was counteracted.
Its massive tail swept towards Sahara, sealing off the escape paths in front of it, above it, and to its left and right. The huge tail shone with scarlet rays of light.
Immediately, Sahara curled its four limbs inward and buried its head into its chest, leaving only the sharp thorns on its back to go head to head with the Gigantic Demon Centipede.
Like a baseball bat hitting a baseball, Sahara was sent flying with a slap.
Its razor-sharp and long thorns broke the Gigantic Demon Centipede's outer shell, scattering and smashing its outer shell.
After being sent flying, Sahara smashed into the earth and howled in pain.
The Gigantic Demon Centipede showed no mercy after gaining the upper hand. Closely following that, it sprayed a mass of poisonous mist into the pit where Sahara was laying. Sahara was covered by the poisonous mist.
The hissing sound of corrosion was extremely terrifying.
"Ow—"
There was a plaintive and shrill whine.
As if its buttocks had been electrocuted, Sahara scrambled out of the pit in a split second. Part of the fur on Sahara's face, back, and chest had been scorched. It ran wildly and swiftly across the ground.
Amid Sahara's howls and wails of pain, five tails grew behind its body.
The spectating crowd was stunned by this scene.
How on earth had this Three-Headed Dog grown a scorpion tail? Five tails in one shot, at that.
Sahara still couldn't control its tails with practiced ease, as they had just grown. However, while battling with the Gigantic Demon Centipede, its control over the five tails also increased exponentially.
Sahara's domain was the Hell Lava Domain. Within this domain, temperatures rose to great heights and warped the air. The hot air burned the ground surface to create lava pools. Dark red lava bubbled.
As expected, experience was the best teacher.
In no time, the five tails were able to join the actual battle.
After the Devil-Thorn Storm-Off began its second stage, the duel between Sahara and the Gigantic Demon Centipede gradually became more exciting.
Gao Peng watched for some time before he stopped caring and averted his gaze. It didn't matter who won or lost.
The main point was that Gao Peng was a little tired.
"Let me know when they're done fighting," Gao Peng said to Goldie.
Goldie nodded and continued watching the battle with worry.
Gao Peng was awoken by shouting. He himself didn't know how long he had slept.
When he opened his eyes, the sky was about to turn black.
He yawned. "Are they done? Who won?"
"We lost," Goldie said sadly.
Gao Peng was stunned. They had lost?
How could that be? He had thought that Sahara would win.
Goldie had carried Sahara back. Sahara now lay on the ground with its tongue hanging out of the corner of its mouth. There were numerous wounds all over its body. Its tail had disappeared into thin air, and five long and slender tails appeared where its tail had once been.
These five tails were bluish-gray in color. They looked like the links of a chain interlocked together, but the centers of the links weren't simply empty; there were even hooks and serrations along their edges.
Presumably, as long as flesh had been torn apart, a huge chunk of it would definitely fall off.
Gu Zha came up to them and said quietly, "King, I've been training the Gigantic Demon Centipede since it was young. Its explosive power at close-range has been trained to the point where it's extremely fast."
Goldie scoffed. "My dog would have won if I had trained it, too."
"Of course." Gu Zha smiled faintly and agreed with Goldie's words.
Although Sahara had lost, his ability was nevertheless recognized by all of the elders.
Gu Zha's Gigantic Demon Centipede Leader could be ranked among the top five of everyone there.
Ranking among the top five there didn't mean that Gu Zha was in fifth place. Due to the mutual repression of attributes, his familiar's actual rank wasn't definite. However, its ability definitely placed it in the most powerful batch. Only a few in the entire tribe could surpass Gu Zha and the centipede.
However, he had merely gone up against an insignificant pet casually raised by the royal family.
The King's power was indeed unfathomable.
After gesturing for everyone to retreat, Gao Peng sat down again and rested a while more. Then, he stood up in a slow and leisurely fashion and returned to his own palace.
In the depths of the palace, the gloomy and chilling aura of death was spreading continuously.
The aura rose steadily and only stopped when it finally reached its peak.
Dumby slowly walked out from the deepest part of the corridor, where it was pitch-dark.
A row of numbers sprang up in Gao Peng's vision.
[Monster Level: Level 100!
Chapter 764: Chains of Rule
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Having swallowed all the God Spirit Essence, Dumby had finally reached the ultimate limit of Level 100, too.
However, after hitting Level 100, Dumby arrived at a bottleneck. At the moment, it was unable to continue making breakthroughs.
"Master… I feel like I'm still missing something." Dumby spread out its five fingers. It clenched his five bony pale-white fingers into a fist.
"If you want to become a God, there are three requirements you must fulfill. You'll be able to break through to the God tier after you have fulfilled all of them. The first requirement is the Godly Body, which is when your entire body has completed the deification process. Your whole body has already completed the deification process now, so you've fulfilled this requirement.
"The second requirement is to condense all the power you possess into precepts and cast Godhood in your mental sea. Those beneath Gods control the elements, and those above Gods control the precepts. The power of the precepts is also known as Divine Power, because this is power that only Gods can control.
"The last requirement is to thoroughly transform your own soul into God's Soul and cast God's Altar in the depths of your soul.
"Place the Godhood on a God's Altar and worship it. When all three requirements are satisfied, you will have become a true God."
At that moment, Dumby had only completed the deification process of its whole body. It had yet to cast Godhood and God's Altar.
A typical Quasi God could become complacent and even remain at the same level for a long time.
But it wasn't as difficult for Dumby, because it had two people by its side who had been through it before.
The King of Robotics was recuperating in one of the ore veins outside the tribe. Only Fatty Big Sea was with it right now.
"Among the precepts, different precepts are mutually exclusive. The more precepts you have, the larger your Godhood will be, as well," Fatty Big Sea said.
"One God can even have many Godhoods?" Gao Peng asked in surprise.
"Of course," Fatty Big Sea answered affirmatively. "To be honest, I don't know if Gods are like this, but the Godly Body of our Surface Sea does contain a few types of precepts that have a few Godhoods.
"All of the Godhoods are on top of God's Altar. The Godhoods contain precepts, and God's Altar is precisely what fully maximizes the power of these precepts or rules."
"How do I cast God's Altar?" asked Dumby.
"Use the precepts in the Godhoods to stimulate your soul. As long as the power of your soul reaches a sufficient extent, it can produce God's Altar inside your soul. Without God's Altar, there's no way to support the Godhoods."
Well then. It seemed that Dumby had to follow the sequence and complete it step by step. First, it had to condense its power into Godhoods.
"You must follow the sequence for this. The prerequisite to condensing your power into Godhoods is to first deify your whole body. Otherwise, even if the Godhoods belong to you, only the power that overflows and scatters will cause your body to crumble into pieces. I myself once saw the only non-deified finger of a Wood-type Quasi God ultimately turn into a block of wood because its body hadn't completely been deified. It had condensed its power into Godhoods by force in order to deal with the enemies going after it.
"The balance within its body was also destroyed. Its entire body exploded like a balloon." Fatty Big Sea let out a sigh.
"Did you know it?"
"It was a friend."
"Let me tell you how to condense your power into Godhoods." Fatty Big Sea told Dumby how it had condensed its power into Godhoods itself.
A senior had told Fatty Big Sea about this method of condensing power into Godhoods. That senior was a God of the Surface Sea who had formerly guided Fatty Big Sea and been a great benefactor to it.
"In reality, all methods of condensing power into Godhoods are virtually the same. Their exact purpose is to transform your body's power into precepts. Precepts are the foundation that make up all living things on Earth. They're like the framework on which our world is constructed. Of course, such a description isn't totally accurate, since compared to ordinary power, precepts are at a higher level of power."
"I call the method of condensation I have mastered the Observation Method," Fatty Big Sea said slowly.
It was Gao Peng's first time seeing Fatty Big Sea act so grave and serious.
Goldie opened his mouth wide in amazement. He hastily ran over with a small stool and sat down to listen to Teacher Fatty's lecture.
Fatty Big Sea spoke tirelessly, explaining the Observation Method in detail.
As its name implied, the Observation Method was a method involving a form of observation.
Of course, the meaning of observation here didn't refer to sneaking a peek at the precepts when they weren't looking—that was called peeping.
The Observation Method that Fatty Big Sea was referring to required one to empty one's mind and place oneself in a relaxed and tranquil state. In such a state, one's senses in perceiving everything on earth would become more acute. It would also become easier for one to enter a special kind of state.
Such a method demanded a higher level of innate skill of the observers themselves. Furthermore, it required the observer to be able to calm down at will. If one was continuously in a restless state, one would be unable to carry out their observation.
The most important thing was that Dumby had to attain Level 100, or in other words, Great Perfection for a Quasi God. From head to toe, its body had to be completely deified before it would be able to use the Observation Method.
To Gao Peng, it sounded a bit like meditation in Taoism and mental training in Buddhism.
"Gao Peng, Dumby has been sitting for the past three days without moving at all. Is it alright?" Da Zi asked worriedly.
In a quiet room located in the most distant reaches of the palace, green lanterns burned peacefully in the four corners of one room.
A skeleton that was completely dull-gold in color sat on the dark blue praying mat in the center of the room.
This scene looked particularly strange and terrifying.
Ever since Dumby had heard Fatty Big Sea's words that day, it had been continuously meditating in this room.
Dumby closed its eyes and contemplated the precepts as Fatty Big Sea had described them.
The skeleton sat cross-legged on the ground with its eyes closed.
Its mind was in a state of complete relaxation. The flames in its eyes burned faintly, and there was nearly no sign of them burning.
"Back then, how long did you use the Observation Method to observe?" Gao Peng turned around to ask Fatty Big Sea.
"I'm extraordinarily gifted. It only took me a month to successfully observe the precepts," Fatty Big Sea said proudly.
The moment it finished his sentence, sounds came from the room.
The flames in Dumby's eyes burned with greater and greater intensity.
All of a sudden, Dumby's raspy voice emerged from its mouth.
"I see it. It turned out to be here." Dumby's tone was an indifferent one.
It raised his right hand and jabbed its index finger into the air.
There was clearly nothing in front of it, but it seemed as if its incomparably steady finger had pierced something invisible.
A few ripples spread outwards from the point where its index finger had stopped.
The ripples became bigger and bigger. In the end, like a dam that had burst, an explosion occurred with a loud bang!
Thick smog instantly enveloped the entire courtyard. It was as if they were in the clouds.
The smog penetrated Gao Peng's body, causing him to shiver. Gao Peng suddenly felt very cold.
Dumby pointed its index finger then retracted it. The smog swiftly gathered and concentrated into a gray speck of light as large as a grain of rice on the tip of Dumby's index finger.
The arrogant expression immediately froze on Fatty Big Sea's face.
How could Dumby be so quick?!
"So these are what precepts are." The rims of Dumby's eyes turned brighter and brighter. In its eyes, everything on Earth became multiple chains that intertwined vertically and horizontally, filling the entire world.
These chains were of various colors. Some were as red as blood, while others were a luminescent blue. There were also several chains that were like thick soil bearing the weight of all living things.
Outside the window, a few bamboo trees created rustling sounds from being blown around by the wind.
In Dumby's eyes, the center of each bamboo tree was occupied by a jade-green chain that was as fine as rope.
In a split second, Dumby suddenly had a flash of realization. These had to be the Chains of Rule.
This was precisely the visual form used to show the precepts they had spoken about!
Report chapter
Precepts were ubiquitous. They were ingrained in all aspects of everyone's lives.
No wonder they had said that the Chains of Rule were the root of everything on Earth.
A hint of understanding appeared in Dumby's eyes.
It thought, "In that case, my precept is probably…"
Dumby remembered the warning that Fatty Big Sea had given it a few days earlier. "Don't casually and recklessly choose precepts. You can choose precepts, and precepts can also choose you. If you're not suited for a type of precept but you want to forcefully possess it… you'll be in for a hard time."
After muttering to itself for some time, Dumby looked at the little speck of gray light on its fingertip. It aimed at the void and pulled, grasping and grabbing.
In Dumby's and Fatty Big Sea's eyes, Dumby had grabbed a gray chain.
This gray chain was entirely dull in color and luster. There were various types of mysterious symbols engraved on its surface.
This was the Soul precept.
Fatty Big Sea recognized this Chain of Rule.
Dumby grabbed the Soul precept with its right hand. The little speck of gray light was like a parasite, endlessly absorbing "nutrition" from the chain of the Soul precept.
The speck of light expanded continuously. As the light grew bigger, it was also generating power of its own accord in order to break free of Dumby's control.
Fortunately, Dumby's attainments in respect to its soul's power was extremely profound, so it was still in control of the gray speck of light.
With the passage of time, it expanded from the size of a grain of rice to the size of a broad bean, then a fish ball. Ultimately, it even grew to the size of a large steamed beef bun that had soup inside!
Once it grew to the size of a large beef bun, it finally stopped growing. It was round and smooth all around.
Its shiny and smooth surface was covered in mysterious veined patterns.
This was a Godhood.
Goldie's eyes exuded envy. It blew a breath of air into its hands and rubbed its palms together until they were nice and warm.
"It's still not enough," Dumby muttered to itself.
Suspended in midair, the chain of the Soul precept started moving on its own as if it now had a life of its own.
No one knew how long the chain of this Soul precept was. It stretched from the east all the way to the west. A small part of the chain separated from the middle and blended into the gray ball in Dumby's palm.
Once this small part of the chain had completely integrated into the round gray ball, the light of god erupted from it.
It immediately became sparkling and translucent. Inside the round gray ball, a small section of the gray chain closed by forming a loop and laying in the center of the round ball.
It was the Soul Godhood!
Dumby suddenly understood when it looked at the crystal in its palm.
"There's more." Dumby again waved its hand in midair and released the chain of the Soul precept from its hand.
Dumby pulled another chain towards itself.
This chain was completely pale-white in color. There were coarse and sharp thorns on all four sides of it.
"The chain of the White Skeleton Precept." Fatty Big Sea frowned.
A piece of bone that was as white as ivory grew larger in the palm of Dumby's hand.
Ten minutes later, the White Skeleton Godhood was condensed.
Two pieces of Godhood floated in front of Dumby.
Fatty Big Sea was watching very excitedly. It couldn't believe that Dumby had condensed its power into two pieces of Godhoods at the same time. But it knew that this was probably not Dumby's limit.
Typical Gods only had one type of precept. This wasn't to say that those who only developed one precept weren't good. There were several Gods that focused on perfecting one kind only. They would also have faster progress, since practicing many types of precepts at the same time was more time-consuming.
After condensing its power into two pieces of Godhood, Dumby was considerably more in its element when it came to condensing its power into a Godhood.
It aimed into the void and pulled and yanked without hesitation.
Dumby grabbed a chain that had been hidden more deeply among the many Chains of Rule.
This was a Chain of Rule that was mixed with many different colors. There was white, green, and even gray and black.
A speck of light gathered in Dumby's palm.
Fatty Big Sea had been in contact with Dumby for such a long time that it had a better understanding of the power that Dumby had. This chain probably represented the Ghoul Precept.
The Ghoul precept was no simple precept. It was a precept that was at a high level. Not every undead creature had what it took to control the Ghoul precept.
This Ghoul precept involved the creation of the undead, transforming them and controlling the undead that were weaker than the creator of the precept. This was a special type of advanced precept.
At the very end, Dumby condensed its power into the Ghoul Godhood.
The expression on Fatty Big Sea's face was unreadable. Three pieces of Godhood—even among the Gods, this was very rare.
Dumby didn't absorb these three pieces of Godhood into its body. Instead, it aimed into the void and grabbed again.
"Again?" Fatty Big Sea was shocked.
What other precepts could Dumby condense its power into?
The Dark Flame?
The Dark Flame, which could set souls on fire, was indeed very powerful, but it wasn't complete.
If the Dark Flame was complete, it could be possible to condense power into some Precept. It was a pity that the Dark Flame which Dumby controlled was not considered complete.
Dumby reached its arm in as deep as it could. With precision, it grabbed that particular chain among the countless others.
Th-that was.
Fatty Big Sea opened its eyes wide.
Dumby's ambition was unexpectedly huge.
How could that have been? It had actually chosen that.
A chain that was as black as ink and inspired instinctive fear when one simply looked at it floated quietly in midair.
The space between it and the other chains in its vicinity was greater, showing its special status.
The Chain of Rule—of Death!
The moment it held this chain in hand, the world seemed to become quiet.
As if it had been contaminated by death, the color of Dumby's arm turned dull.
The chain trembled slightly.
Fatty Big Sea's heart had also risen to its throat.
It had already said before that if one didn't receive the recognition of a precept, then one had to have an amount of power that was befitting of it.
When one wanted to condense the relevant precept by force, he or she would be attacked by the precept instead.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths.
Time passed by in minutes and seconds. There was no further movement from the chain of the Death precept.
Fatty Big Sea sighed in relief.
Not being rejected was the best beginning.
It was just like courting a girl. If a boy embraced and confessed to a girl on the streets in front of everyone, and she slapped him across the face directly, even giving him a beating because he had molested her, it was a warning to never have such delusions in the future!
In that case, congratulations. The familiar had been blacklisted by this precept. It would only be more difficult for them to control this precept if they wanted to do it again in the future. Furthermore, they would even suffer retaliation from the precept.
But the girl could merely shrug the boy's arms off and stare coldly at him without saying anything.
If that was the case, it would mean that at least the girl didn't detest him too much. She was merely very surprised by his impudent actions.
Under these circumstances, one had to know when to stop. In some aspects, Dumby had received the recognition of this precept, but it was still slightly lacking and unqualified. This meant that as long as one continued working hard, there was still hope for one to control this type of precept.
This was none other than the Death precept… one of the top precepts. All those who could control the Death precept had infinite potential, even if they focused only on this type of precept.
The Gods who controlled the Death precept always evoked terror from other Gods, because the Death precept had the strangest power. This was the power to bestow death.
However, though the use of this power was accompanied by various limits, there was still something to be said about its success rate.
But even this couldn't change the fact that it was strange. It could kill an enemy directly from the source of the precept.
The Death precept could bestow death!
All of a sudden, small black specks of light separated from the surface of the Death precept's chain.
The small specks of light gathered in Dumby's palm and finally transformed into a crystal as large as a quail. Inside the crystal, there was a pocket-sized black ring.
Even if it was physically half the size or smaller than the other three Godhoods around it, the aura it exuded suppressed those of the other three Godhoods.
The tiny Death precept floated to the very top. Its stance was that of a king overlooking his citizens.
The Ghoul precept and the Soul precept shared the level beneath it, while the poor White Skeleton Godhood was left right at the bottom…

Chapter 766: What an Interesting Way to Die
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After condensing power into Godhoods, the next step was using Godhoods to stimulate the soul to cast God's Altar.
Naturally, Dumby passed the standard to cast God's Altar as it occupied the position of Soul Dominator. Just when Dumby was planning to cast God's Altar, Fatty Big Sea suddenly reminded it, "You haven't perfected your Death Godhood yet. It's best that you wait for your Death Godhood to be complete before you cast God's Altar."
Dumby froze for a moment before silently nodding its head and standing from the ground.
In Gao Peng's eyes, a row of new numbers appeared in Dumby's Condition column.
[Control of Rule: Death Precepts 0.1%, Soul Precepts 1%, Ghoul Precepts 1%, White Skeleton Precepts 1%
The proportion of Death precepts was only 0.1%. It seemed it was still lacking substantially and would probably be perfected only when it hit the one percent mark.
"You'll have to depend on yourself to understand the Death precept. I myself have never been in possession of it."
"The only way to understand the Death precept is to witness death firsthand," Dumby said hoarsely.
Goldie patted its own head. "How do you know who'll die? Could it be—" Goldie's eyes brightened as it hammered its fists together. "I understand!
"You mean that you'll tell other people that it's time for you to die. If you don't die, I'll help you by hammering you to death, right?!" Goldie felt proud of its intelligence and wisdom.
Gao Peng didn't know how to respond to the situation.
Da Zi was also stunned into silence.
"I can sense the smell of death." Dumby surveyed the east side down below. "Over there… there's the smell of death."
Dumby took one step and traveled as swiftly as the wind and as quickly as lightning. Its speed was more than twice its speed had been before it had condensed its power into Godhoods.
On the hillside, a monster that had been hunted and killed lay in a pool of blood, barely breathing.
The trainer close by turned his head and was instinctively frightened upon seeing Gao Peng's figure. He hastily went forth to greet the king.
"King, this is a kill I'm offering to you." The trainer from the Li Tribe wanted to offer the freshly-killed Flaming Rock Antelope on the ground as a tribute.
Gao Peng waved his hand. "No need. This is your kill. Keep it for yourself."
Dumby came close to the Flaming Rock Antelope that laid in a pool of blood and crouched down in front of it.
The eyes of the Flaming Rock Antelope, which were covered in fresh blood, were filled with hatred as they stared unwaveringly at Dumby.
There was a short period of silence.
Dumby stretched out its palm and gently smoothed it over the antelope's eyes and face. The fur on the side of its face was soaked in traces of blood.
After taking its final breath, a thick atmosphere of death emanated from within the body of the Flaming Rock Antelope. Dumby raised its head and watched this atmosphere of death dissipate into the air.
The corpse became ice-cold after losing its last ounce of vitality. The heat left in its body gradually dispersed into the air.
"In that case, let's go and look for some monsters and directly hammer them to death. That way, Dumby will be able to become a God even more quickly!" Goldie said excitedly from the side.
"We can try." Gao Peng nodded. This time, he didn't reject Goldie's idea.
Standing by the side, the trainer was scared witless.
What terrifying things were they talking about?
"You can go back first. You can take this corpse with you, too," Gao Peng said while pointing at the corpse on the ground.
"All right." The trainer frantically dragged the corpse of the Flaming Rock Antelope away.
It didn't take long for Goldie to catch a lively and frisky monster from the wild. In front of Dumby, it knocked this monster out with a single slap.
The monster's head drooped downwards. The monster's corpse exuded a rising atmosphere of death that only Dumby could see.
"…No." Dumby suddenly shook its head.
"It doesn't have the same effect as earlier."
"Ah." Goldie scratched the back of its head. Why was it different? Could it have been that this monster was slightly weaker?
"It's probably not related to strength," Dumby said.
Goldie didn't believe Dumby. Following the previous example, it went off again to catch two more monsters.
"The effect is very weak." Dumby walked back and forth in front of the corpses.
The crowd of familiars was collectively confused.
"You'll know more once you try it again." Gao Peng continued, "If you observe more deaths, you may be able to figure out the reason. We have to use the scientific method of counting to calculate the results."
"What the hell?!" It seemed that Goldie suddenly thought Gao Peng's words made a lot of sense.
"You should have studied more. Now, the only thing you know to say is 'what the hell.'" Da Zi added another blow.
Goldie grew agitated and angry. "I've already learned up to the curriculum for the second year of middle school on my own! At the very least, I have a middle school diploma! What basis do you have to mock me?!"
"You're only considered to have a middle school diploma if you finish middle school. At best, you can only be considered to have a primary school education, so you're a primary school student." Da Zi scoffed haughtily. Of course, it wouldn't tell anyone that Stripey had used this same sentence to mock Da Zi before.
"You guys should quickly absorb the Divine Essence I've given you. Right now, Dumby has already broken through to Quasi God Great Perfection and has even condensed Godhoods. The only thing left for it to become a God is to cast God's Altar. You guys have to speed up," Gao Peng said to his familiars.
If all the Divine Essence was given to one familiar, it would probably push that familiar to Quasi God Great Perfection. Unfortunately, Gao Peng had too many familiars. What Dumby had absorbed was God Spirit Essence, which was different from what these familiars were enjoying.
In the forests out in the wild, the roots of the trees were thick and solid. Their branches and leaves were flourishing, and trees that were more than a hundred yards tall were everywhere.
The tree trunks, which would have required seven or eight people to carry them, had mottled tree bark. There were moss and fungi all over it.
The green boa that was sticking out its forked tongue blended into its surroundings, making it difficult for other living things to notice it.
This was a more rudimentary method of concealment. Only low-level monsters would use such a physical method of camouflage.
So, this green boa was extremely careful to hide itself. It was physically more petite than most of its kind. As those that were more well-built had been captured to be eaten, the smaller ones that were left behind could easily survive.
That day was another happy day. Dark clouds covered the sky overhead. This cloudy weather was the boa's favorite. "It would be best if there was a slight drizzle," the Forest Green Boa thought happily.
It stuck out its tongue and distinguished the various smells in the air.
To the east was a smell it hated. It seemed to be a Thorny Iron-Backed Bear. Those dumb and sturdy fellows weren't delicious at all. The iron thorns on their backs could pierce its stomach. Its own mother had died from excessive blood loss due to its belly being pierced after eating the corpse of a Thorny Iron-Backed Bear.
To the west, it seemed that there were those clammy fellows, the Golden Toad Water Ghosts. They liked to move around in crowds and were the most disgusting.
"Oh? These seem to be eggs of a Golden Lamp Eagle?" Its eyes brightened at a sudden smell in the air.
The Golden Lamp Eagle was its natural enemy, but at the same time, the eggs of the Golden Lamp Eagle were also one of its favorite foods.
It stealthily slithered up the tree. The Forest Green Boa climbed up the neighboring tree at an incomparably cautious speed. It secretly observed the bird's nest nearby. The Forest Green Boa was even happier when it confirmed that there was no adult Golden Lamp Eagle in the nest. That day was truly a lucky day. It had to celebrate this by eating two eggs.
It slithered along the branches of two adjacent trees and made its way over to the nest. The Forest Green Boa slowly increased its speed. It was close, closer…
There were seven eggs in the bird's nest!
A strong sense of greed was visible in the eyes of the Forest-Green Boa.
But at some point in time, a dim golden lamp dangled by its ear.
A black shadow hung over the Forest Green Boa.
The Forest Green Boa raised its head. A tremendous eagle with a wingspan of more than 20 feet had been staring at it like a tiger watching its prey. A long and thin string fell from the top of its head. A golden lantern hung at the other end of the string.
How could it have been so fast…?
"If it had flown back, I definitely would have heard the sound of its wings," thought the snake.
The Forest Green Boa sank into a trance.
"Unless… unless it was using this as a method of entrapment?!" it considered.
The Forest Green Boa didn't know the word entrapment, but what it wanted to convey at that moment wasn't much different from this word.
The sharp beak of the eagle pierced a hole through its skull. The body of the Forest Green Boa spasmed, and the aura of death spread everywhere.
Accompanied by a whoosh, Dumby crouched on the tree branch, the flames in its eyes burning. "Being trapped is such an interesting way to die. I understand now…"

Chapter 767: Mountain-Conqueror Grass
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
From that day on, Dumby fell in love with performance art—this sentence was said secretly by Goldie.
Somehow, the news traveled to all the groups of familiars. Even the outsiders of the tribe had heard about it.
They could often see the king's skeletal familiar crouching down in the distance for some strange reason and observing living things that were about to die or take their last breath.
This behavior frightened them.
No one dared to say in Dumby's presence that they detested it, but they felt that Dumby would attract bad luck. Death accompanied it wherever it went.
It was like the harbinger of death, just like the Specter Crow.
As Dumby observed death, it also got on the right track in respect to the speed at which it understood Death precepts.
Essentially, its understanding of Death precepts would increase by 0.01 percent every day.
It would only need 99 days to hit one percent.
Once the Death Godhood was completely formed, it would be able to cast God's Altar and reach the apex to become a God.
The countdown to Dumby becoming a God had already begun.
One by one, the rest of the familiars were also inspired. They completely devoured the Divine Essence and the God-tier Meat Essence that Gao Peng had handed out.
It was a pity that apart from Dumby, there were no other familiars who had attained Quasi God Great Perfection at that moment.
Da Zi had the highest level after Dumby but was only at Level 99.
At the same time, Gao Peng also decided to take out a part of the leftover Meat Essence to distribute as a reward to the elders and some of the younger prodigies of the Li Tribe who had outstanding talent.
Most of this leftover Meat Essence was made from the blood and flesh of demons that were at or below the Saint tier.
They were no longer of much use to Gao Peng's familiars. Only Meat Essence at the Quasi God-tier or a higher tier could have an effect on them, so the Meat Essence was just perfect for nurturing the younger generation.
In the tribe's hall , Gao Peng welcomed the younger generation of prodigies. As he looked at these young and energetic boys and girls, Gao Peng couldn't help but feel melancholy at the passing of time. He had truly aged.
When he counted in detail, he himself was already more than thirty years old. This was an age at which others on Earth Star would call him 'uncle.'
Once upon a time, he had been as young as them, too.
Gao Peng sighed.
These younger people didn't know why the king had sighed. They even thought that it might have been because he wasn't satisfied with them. Each and every one of them were so frightened that they were trembling.
"Call for all of your familiars so that I can take a look."
"King, our familiars are outside."
"They're too big in size. We can't bring them into the palace."
Seeing that the king didn't seem as difficult to get along with as they had imagined, these youths instinctively grew slightly bolder and also gathered the courage to speak to Gao Peng.
"How big can they be?" Gao Peng smiled.
Speaking of big familiars, Stripey immediately came to his mind. Now that he mentioned it, he wasn't up to standards as a master. Although the familiars had no sense of time in the familiar space ,and Stripey wouldn't feel lonely either, as a master, he himself was nevertheless very lacking.
"King, Yan Wu's familiar is the largest familiar in our tribe."
When he walked outside from the hall, Gao Peng finally saw the Li Tribe's largest familiar that they had been talking about.
It turned out that this familiar had been staying in the mountains behind the tribe. Not many monsters lived in the mountains in the back. As this place was filled with bare rock cliffs, very few people usually went there.
In the heart of the mountains in the back, a massive creature whose height was nearly equal to that of the mountain peaks was leaning against the cliff. It turned its head to gaze at Gao Peng and the rest.
This monster looked a little like a ginseng root that had multiplied in size.
It was narrow at the bottom and wide at the top, with countless roots which making up its legs. Among the roots, there were three legs that were as slender and long as wooden stilts supporting it.
There was a human head made of wood on the front of its head. The rims of its vacant eyes were lined with feelers. It was looking blankly and helplessly at the throng of people that had suddenly swarmed around it, a little alarmed and also a little delighted.
"Master, you're here to see me…"
The massive creature that was as tall as a mountain peak climbed down like a child as an innocent smile appeared on its face.
"This is the king of our tribe. Make your movements smaller. Don't scare the king." The master of this massive creature hastily reprimanded his familiar through their Blood Contract.
"Okay…"
The gigantic creature was a bit aggrieved, but nevertheless very obedient and nodded vigorously. Just like that, it sprawled on the ground and didn't move at all. Only the fluttering feelers around its eyes showed that it was in fact a restless fellow.
While this large creature wasn't physically as large as Stripey, to ordinary monsters, it was a super-giant.
After all, not many monsters could physically reach the level of a mountain peak.
Not all monsters would become physically larger following an increase in their level. Usually, all monsters were less than 300 feet in height.
Gao Peng looked up to examine this huge fellow's attributes.
[Monster Name: Mountain-Conqueror Grass (Gigantic Form)
[Monster Level: Level 75 (Overlord-tier)
[Monster Attribute: Wood/Earth
[Monster Grade: Perfect/Perfect
[Monster Skills: Symbiotic Growth Level 7, Catabolism Level 5, Extraordinary Regeneration Level 6
[Monster Condition: Healthy (Nervous)
[Monster Weakness: Fire
[Monster Description: A rare catabolizing organism that has a height that is a hundred times larger than most of its kind. It has a shy personality and likes to count the stars. Its favorite thing to eat is loose yellow sand, and it hates the smell of rich black soil.
"I'll find you a companion, all right?" Gao Peng said to this Mountain-Conqueror Grass.
The Mountain-Conqueror Grass tilted its head, its large eyes blinking.
"You guys will probably become friends." Gao Peng spread open his right hand, and the air beside the Mountain-Conqueror Grass warped.
Thereafter, a colossus descended from the sky.
With a boom, the ground shook.
Smoke and dust rumbled and surged into the sky.
Amid the pervading smoke and dust, a pitch-black face was faintly discernible.
"Gao Peng! Did you miss me?!" Stripey's dim-witted voice could be heard.
Gao Peng's eyes curved into crescents as he gently replied to Stripey, "You're right. I missed our little Stripey."
"Hmph. No way am I little Stripey. I'm huge Stripey!" A spider claw that was even larger and more majestic than a skyscraper moved slightly to the front, causing the mountains to shake and the earth to tremble.
The rest of the familiars had gone to the back to hide a long time ago. They feared that they would be accidentally affected by the aftermath.
Which one of them would be able to withstand it if they were stepped on?
"Stripey, you seem to have grown taller," Da Zi said, flying to Stripey's shoulder.
"Ah! How could I have grown taller again?" Stripey was extremely vexed. It thought, "Height isn't something I can control myself either. I'm already tall enough. If I get any taller, I won't be able to see Gao Peng, even if I look down."
Flowing Light raised its head indifferently. These two childish fellows!
"Stripey, let me introduce a companion to you. Its name is Mountain-Conqueror Grass. Although its not as tall as you, it has even fewer friends than you do."
"He has even fewer friends than I do?" Stripey was stunned. It gazed sympathetically at the short Mountain-Conqueror Grass beside it. If that was the case, the creature was truly too pitiful.
"Don't worry; in the future, I will be your big wok*. I will teach you to read and write! I am none other than the most cultured spider in our village," Stripey vowed solemnly to the Mountain-Conqueror Grass.
"Big… big wok?" The Mountain-Conqueror Grass was at a loss for words.
"Yes, big wok!" Stripey nodded in satisfaction.
Perhaps it was because it saw a shadow of itself in this little fellow, or maybe it was because the two of them had a lot in common in terms of their physical size, but Stripey gained one more lackey in the Li Tribe.
As for the trainer of the Mountain-Conqueror Grass, of course he was very agreeable to what had happened. This Mountain-Conqueror Grass wasn't his only familiar. It was worthwhile for him to be able to use the Mountain-Conqueror Grass to gain the king's favor.
*Big wok (大锅) sounds similar to the Mandarin phrase for "big brother" (大哥)

After summoning Stripey this time, Gao Peng wasn't planning to casually call it back to the familiar space.
As its master, Gao Peng couldn't be too selfish. Every single being had freedom. Familiars were the same, too. They should also enjoy freedom instead of being locked up in the pitch-black familiar space with no daylight tp waste time in a daze.
"Gao Peng, am I not going back anymore?" Stripey asked cautiously.
"You're not going back." Gao Peng patted Stripey on the head.
Stripey cheered excitedly.
"I will work hard to shrink! That way, I won't affect you!" Stripey solemnly promised Gao Peng.
"All the best!" Gao Peng replied.
"All the best!" Stripey agreed.
"Stripey, you're the b-best!"
The last sentence was said in Goldie's duck voice, which broke near the end of the sentence.
"Dumby has already taken half a step into the threshold of becoming a God." The King of Robotics was full of praise for Dumby. It spoke with a bit more respect, as well.
"Cheep—" Traces of a gray figure were approaching.
"King, there's an urgent report from Earth Star. A powerful enemy has invaded," said a trainer knelt on one knee after he had jumped out of the chest of a Cross-Mountain Vulture when it landed.
The Cross-Mountain Vulture rolled on the ground many times. In the end, it laid on the ground facing upwards. The frequency at which its chest pounded was extremely fast. It opened its mouth wide and panted rapidly. There was indistinct white foam leaking out from the corners of its mouth…
The Cross-Mountain Vulture was a Divine Hawk that could soar over mountains and pass through ravines. It had extraordinary stamina and great speed, able to travel a hundred thousand miles a day and travel for twelve consecutive days.
Even a familiar with such enduring stamina had been worn out to the point where it didn't feel like itself.
"Rest in peace." Goldie kneeled on the ground with one knee and closed the eyes of the Cross-Mountain Vulture.
After its palm had smoothed over its eyes, the Cross-Mountain Vulture opened its eyes again.
"Could it be that you still have some dying wish? Tell me what it is and I will help you fulfill it. Familiars as loyal as you are few and far between." Goldie shook its head slowly.
The Cross-Mountain Vulture opened its throat with much difficulty. "I'm not dead yet…"
"Oh. But you will be soon, right?"
"Soon? Rubbish! You duck, why are you like this?! Goodness gracious." The Cross-Mountain Vulture suddenly raised its voice and shouted before feeling a sharp pain in its chest.
This damned duck. "I'm just tired. I need to rest. Don't talk to me."
The leaves on Xiao Cao's head swayed gently while a ray of white light shone on the Cross-Mountain Vulture's body.
All the soreness in its body subsided like the waning tide.
"Did the Mutated Tribe discover you?" Gao Peng's brow was furrowed deeply. This trainer was a monster trainer at the Saint tier from the Li Tribe. He was stationed at Earth Star upon Gao Peng's instructions. He was something like the head of the Li Tribe's embassy stationed on Earth Star.
"It wasn't the Mutated Tribe. It was another group of humans. They came from the Surface Sea!"
"How powerful are they?"
"From what we saw, there were monster trainers at Quasi God-tier. At the moment, no monster trainers at God-tier have appeared, but we don't know if they have any hidden monster trainers at God-tier."
"Dumby, are you going to stay here and wait until you've become a God before you come forward to assist us, or are you going to return with me?"
The situation on Earth Star didn't look good, as there were humans from the Surface Sea over there. It may not have been like the situation in their kingdom, where the Li Tribe could give Dumby a stable space to develop.
Dumby's speed of observing death would possibly be delayed.
"Master, since a war is about to happen, then of course it'll be the best chance to observe death." Dumby placed its right hand on its left shoulder and gave a knight's bow.
"All right. In that case, come along with me!"
There was no time to lose. Gao Peng was planning to leave right then.
"Stripey, you stay in the Li Tribe and await my return." Gao Peng patted Stripey on the head.
"Mmhm!" Although Stripey was reluctant to part with him, it nevertheless remained obedient. "Then, you must come back to fetch me soon, Gao Peng."
"Don't worry."
In the Black Fog World, massive walls enclosed the entire City of Hope.
There was a mansion inside the city. At that moment, there were still three high-level executives of the tribe in the base city of Huaxia. All of them were engaged in a serious discussion inside the mansion about the next course of action.
"Sir, those guys are outside raising a clamor to start a war again."
"That's really going too far!"
"Does it really think that no one can subdue it?!"
"Don't be impulsive." Ji Hanwu shook his head. "Its ability is very strange. We shouldn't recklessly meet it in battle before we fully understand its powers."
Upon hearing Ji Hanwu's words, the crowd present grew silent and listened to him speak.
"Yesterday, my familiar fell into its trap. Otherwise, it definitely wouldn't have been a match for my familiar," an old man with a small head and large eyes said in a fierce tone, his face redder than a date.
"Ha. You Huangning, you old thing. You're just an obstinate toad—reluctant to admit your mistake!" refuted Ji Hanwu.
You Huangning glared at him viciously. With a thud, he sat with You Huangming to his left.
"Rubbish. I'm not reluctant to admit my mistake. Grandson, you tell them. Was your grandfather careless yesterday?"
You Huangning, who had a long beard, felt bitter deep down. "My dear grandfather, I'm already more than a hundred years old, yet you still treat me like a little child," he thought.
"My familiar is about to collapse. They're attacking it right now." The facial expression of one of the trainers from the Bai Tribe at Quasi God-tier changed slightly.
The crowd of people snuck glances at each other.
At the border of the City of Hope, the atmosphere along the fringes of the city was extremely grave.
The air was filled with a somber and desolate aura.
Outside the city, a massive shadow landed.
A divine turtle that was even larger than the mountain was flying in the sky.
The back of the massive turtle was equivalent to an island.
There were hills and creeks on the island, and even waterfalls.
A gigantic city had been constructed on it.
At that time, there was a rich golden light suspended in front of the massive turtle. The golden astral wind spread outward in the shape of an arc.
In the center of the astral wind, a monster with a unique appearance that looked a little like the hybrid of a praying mantis and a beetle circled in the air.
"A bunch of useless people! Isn't there anyone who will fight it out with me? If that's the case, why don't you just surrender to us?"
Its arrogant voice reverberated throughout the sky.
"I'll deal with it." You Xuanming's expression hardened.
"What are you going to use to fight with it? Is your Thousand-handed Faceless Buddha a match for it?"
"How will I know if I don't have a go at it?" You Xuanming said with a somber expression on his face.
"Even my throat is sore from shouting. In such a big city, is there anyone at all who dares to fight with me? I've already said my piece. Which one of you will come and kill me? Who will come and kill me?!"
Large-scale oscillating shock waves suddenly split the sky apart. There were endless vibrations in the air, and ripples spread outwards repeatedly. It was like a heavy fist had flipped heaven and earth upside down.
In the distance, the sky was torn apart at an extremely rapid speed. It was like a knife had cut across the sky and injured it.
In the blink of an eye, many of the familiars present felt an extremely terrifying elemental wave like the boundless sun mingling in the air.
Suddenly, there was a resounding boom!!!
In an instant, the monster who was arrogantly shouting in front of the two opposing sides had its head twisted and pulled off by a terrifyingly powerful force.
The monster's broken neck was jagged where its head had been cruelly torn off. There were even bits of white tendon and pale-white bone remnants on it.
The lingering waves of the astral winds were like the spring breeze in February, blowing on its sturdy chest.
In the sky, Goldie looked around its surroundings expressionlessly. There was a sinister smile on its face. "That's the first time I've heard such a strange request."

"Didn't you ask who could kill you? I'm telling you now, your grandfather Gold can," Goldie said with a malevolent smile.
The gold plated familiar whose neck had been twisted and snapped wanted to fly stealthily in the opposite direction. Its vitality was extremely strong. It didn't die even after its head had been severed from its body.
[Monster Name: Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle
[Monster Level: Level 97 (Quasi God)
[Monster Grade: Legendary/Legendary
[Monster Attributes: Metal/Wind
[Monster Condition: Heavily Injured (Separation of head and body, blood loss)
[Monster Skills: Divine Big Dipper Gold Wind Level 9, Divine Gold Armor Level 9, Extraordinary Vitality Level 9, Sharp Agility Level 9
[Special Characteristic: Divine Big Dipper Gold Wind of the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle has extraordinarily destructive power.
[Passive Effect 1: When the Divine Big-Dipper Gold Wind injures an enemy, it will cause the enemy's body to become vulnerable. The Divine Big Dipper Gold Wind has extraordinarily strong destructive power, so the enemy's body will be damaged to the point that it cannot function after it is corroded by the Divine Big Dipper Gold Wind. It will lower the enemy's ability to defend itself, as well as the explosive power of its strength and speed.
[Passive Effect 2: When the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle attacks the targeted area for designated destruction, it will result in a 'paralyzing' effect on the targeted area of the enemy's body after it has been damaged. It will not be able to heal for a short time.
[Active Effect 1: The Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle can lock in on a particular area of the enemy's body and designate it as the area to be destroyed. There can be, at most, one targeted area for designated destruction on the same body at a time.
[Designated Destruction: The Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle is a monster with an extremely powerful offensive ability. Its claws can tear through an enemy's protective armor and defense.
[Monster Description: A Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle that steps into battle is a defensive familiar's worst nightmare.
But this nightmare had become a nightmare that was more dead than alive at that point.
A thick sphere of yellow clouds suddenly approached from the eastern side of the sky. It was only after it had come closer that everyone clearly saw that this was definitely not a yellow cloud. It was obviously a yellow sandstorm!
The dark-yellow sandstorm hid the sky and covered the earth. The crowd at the City of Hope's gate tower couldn't see anything. Their vision was completely obscured by the sandstorm.
"Hahaha. Much thanks."
The arrogant voice in the middle of the sandstorm gradually disappeared into the distance.
Goldie lowered its head to find that the corpse of the Golden Plated Heavenly Beetle in front of it had vanished without a trace.
"Did someone actually steal the fruits of my labor?" thought Goldie.
Goldie's expression sank like a rock in water.
The sandstorm came quickly and left quickly, too. It disappeared on the horizon in the blink of an eye.
It was so swift that Goldie could only see the dust it left behind.
There was a burst of restlessness on the massive turtle's back. Seeing as it was bustling with activity, it seemed that they knew who the master of the sandstorm was.
"Gao Peng, someone stole the fruits of my labor." Goldie raised its head and gazed into the sky.
"I saw it."
"Aren't you angry?"
"Why would I be angry? I'm not the one whose peaches were stolen."
Goldie was silent. What he'd said seemed to make sense.
The smile on Gao Peng's face was restrained as he looked at the giant turtle island floating in the sky outside of the City of Hope.
This was a Level-99 Epic Giant Turtle. It didn't have much strength, and its only advantage was that it was physically massive. It also had extraordinary stamina and could float in the sky.
Those sitting on the city walls had still been worrying about who to send to battle earlier, but things were fine now. They no longer had to consider this issue, since that arrogant creature had already had its neck snapped.
"He's back."
"That guy…"
"How did he train his familiar? I can't believe it's already that strong. It's at least as powerful as the best of the Quasi God tier."
Goldie landed on the city walls, and a man sprang off of Goldie's chest.
"Grandfather, Patriarch Bai, Patriarch You, respected elders, long time no see," Gao Peng said while smiling.
"Long time no see…You've become stronger." This group of elders had unreadable expressions on their faces.
"Haha. I've been away for so long that I've finally had a bit of success." Gao Peng was very modest.
A bit of success…
What he meant by a bit was probably as huge as the sun.
"We can reminisce about the past later, after we settle this group of people." Gao Peng's expression became calm again.
He turned his head to look at the massive turtle outside the city.
The other people also knew that this wasn't a good time to reminisce. They agreed with what Gao Peng had said.
In a split second, thick white air spurted out of the nose of the massive turtle floating in the sky. From afar, it looked like there were two waterfalls of steam.
The massive body of the giant turtle turned slowly, then it changed the direction of its body and flew off.
Everyone was stunned.
"It escaped?"
It seemed that it really had escaped.
Everyone sank deep into thought.
"I remember that this isn't the only Quasi God on the giant turtle's back."
"There are no fewer than ten monsters that are even more powerful than this Quasi God."
The crowd was engaged in a lively discussion.
While listening to their discussion, Gao Peng overheard a few things.
"Are you guys saying that there are no fewer than ten monsters that are stronger than this Quasi God?"
"That's right."
"Did you guys see them with your own eyes?"
"We've seen them before. They had a very powerful presence. We nearly thought that we had seen a God." This time, the public clamor could melt metal. Many people admitted that they had witnessed it firsthand.
"How do they compare to Goldie?", Gao Peng asked while pointing to Goldie beside him, who was raising his head and lifting his chest.
Goldie scratched his head. "Gao Peng, Desolion is the combat unit. Why has it become me instead?"
Desolion, "…" What the hell?
"They've never seen Desolion in combat. Goldie, you made a move just now," Gao Peng said placatingly to Goldie.
"They had a slightly stronger presence…" Ji Hanwu said with a frown.
"What?" Gao Peng was astonished. He nearly thought that he had misheard.
With a hot temper like his, Goldie was just about to throw a tantrum. However, when he saw that it was Gao Peng's grandfather, he immediately changed his tone and said playfully, "Grandfather, did you see wrongly?"
Goldie struck a body-builder pose, and his biceps bulged immensely.
Ten Familiars, that had an even stronger presence than Goldie, who was a Level 98 Mythical Grade Familiar?
How ridiculous was that? Were they going to slaughter the Gods?
In other words, since they had such power, why were they still spouting nonsense about some challenge? They could probably wear out the entire Tribal Alliance!
"Grandfather, you probably don't know what level Goldie is at now. Ten monsters that are more powerful than Goldie… they wouldn't need to be in a deadlock with you for so long." Gao Peng stretched out his thumb and middle finger to massage his temples. He now knew with 80 percent certainty that Grandfather and the rest had been swindled.
The expressions on everyone else's faces were a little unpleasant. We know that your Familiar is strong, and we also know that your Familiar is more powerful than ours.
But we have many Quasi Gods here too. To say so bluntly that they could wear us thin was way too…
Too disrespectful towards us!
"They may have illusion type or psychic type monsters. They're probably at the Quasi God Tier too," Fatty Big Sea mumbled.
"King of Robotics, we'll trouble you to help us defend this place for a bit, to prevent the enemy from luring us away from our territory," Gao Peng requested of the King of Robotics.
The King of Robotics nodded his head. "All right."
Only then did Gao Peng feel at ease. He looked in the direction that the massive turtle had escaped with a murderous expression. "How dare they invade us? We must not let them off."
Dumby landed on Gao Peng's left without a sound. His arms were behind his back. "I smell the sweet scent of death."

"We're lucky we left quickly."
"I didn't expect them to have hidden powerful monsters of this level."
"The neck of the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle was twisted and snapped within an instant. It was too terrifying. I can't believe there's even a Quasi God of such a high level in a small world like this. It is undoubtedly the standard of the best among the Quasi Gods."
"The Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle is already very powerful among those of the Quasi God Tier. I didn't expect to encounter an even stronger one."
In the city atop the giant turtle island, a group of people were having a spirited discussion.
"They won't catch up with us, right?" someone asked.
"Don't worry. The Continent Emperor Turtle is definitely not slow."
The surrounding clouds swiftly passed by the two sides of the Continent Emperor Turtle.
They felt a sense of security after they had gotten far away from that place.
"Do you guys hear death?" A sound suddenly traveled from the rooftop.
"Who's there?!"
Boom!
A monster with a mask over its face and with its drooping arms made up of chains pierced through the roof using the chains in its arms. It ripped the roof off, causing the entire house to be torn apart.
But there was nothing where the ripped roof had been.
The sound of someone knocking on the door traveled in from outside.
Everyone in the house felt their blood run cold. They stared rigidly in the direction of the entrance.
The next moment, a creak echoed loudly.
The door to the house slowly opened.
"Boom! Boom!" The attack of the fire type Familiar in the house drowned out the sound of the opening door.
After some time, the flames dissipated.
The door to the house as well as the wall attached to it was burnt by the high temperature, creating a massive hole. The heatwaves continued to surge on.
"That… that chap." Someone pointed in astonishment at the area that had just been enveloped in flames
In the center of that area, a human skeleton silently stood rooted to the ground.
The black robe draped over its body had already been burnt to a crisp by the flames.
But the bones making up its entire body had instead regenerated after being bathed in fire.
Using its left index finger, it pointed at the Familiar that had spit fire at it earlier.
White Skeleton Precept – Bone Chaos.
All of a sudden, a sharp bone dripping with blood pierced through the back of the Familiar that had spit fire from within its body. Blood gushed from the wound in torrents.
And this was just the beginning.
One by one, sharp thorns burst out from various parts of this Familiar's body.
Psst, psst, psst.
In an instant, it transformed into a white hedgehog.
Drop after drop of fresh blood streamed down from the wounds.
Everyone in the house was dumbfounded.
Just like that, the Dream-Shattering Fire Demon had been killed instantaneously in one move?
"Hush," Dumby stuck out his index finger and pressed it against his lips, "Listen, guys."
Without waiting for the others to respond, Dumby said to himself, "The sound of its anguished wail before death was so beautiful, just like a dancing waltz."
These people had never heard of the waltz and did not understand what Dumby was saying. They merely felt that Dumby was just like a lunatic at this moment…
There seemed to be something wrong with this chap's mind!
One of the monster trainers retreated slowly and bumped into the corner of a table by accident with a clang. Upon seeing that the human skeleton's focus had turned to him, this monster trainer turned deathly pale.
"My leg was just a little sore."
"I know." A voice traveled from behind Dumby. Everyone looked in that direction to see a tall human figure striding towards them.
The tall and sturdy man looked around at all the people in the house. "From now on, I ask a question and you will answer. If anyone deceives me or is reluctant to reply, he will die."
His voice was cold as ice and harbored no trace of emotion.
"Sir, ask away. I definitely won't hide anything I know," the fattest fatty among them said while smiling appealingly.
"Whose Familiar was the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle that was killed earlier?"
"It was Sa Lu's Familiar. His Gold Plated Heavenly was one of the top three most powerful Familiars we have here," the fatty hastily said.
"Who are the other two?"
The air turned awkward. The fatty pointed at the corpse of the Dream-Shattering Fire Demon lying on the ground. Then, it pointed again at an unremarkable little chap at the very back of the crowd.
It was an oddly-shaped Familiar that was not even as tall as a human leg. It looked like a plush toy with strange and thick make-up on its face.
[Monster Name: King of Dreams
[Monster Level: Level 97 (Quasi God)
[Monster Grade: Epic / Epic
[Monster Attribute: Illusion
[Monster Ability: Spiritual Virtualization Lv9, Environment Creation Lv9, Deepening Nightmare Lv8
[Special Characteristic: Fearsome Notebook
Effect (1) Passive Effect: All the monsters and scenes that the King of Dreams has ever seen will be recorded in the notebook.
Effect (2) Active Effect: The King of Dreams can perfectly project all of the monsters or scenes recorded in the notebook. It can even copy its breathing and atmosphere.
Effect (3) Passive Effect: Each time the illusion created by the King of Dreams intimidates the target or is believed by the target, the target's immunity against the next spell of the King of Dreams would be lowered.)
[Monster Description] A rare monster that lives in the depths of the dark forest. They like creating illusions to make their enemies die of fear in their environment. But their close-range combat ability is extremely weak, and they cannot defend against direct enemy attacks.
"So it's you, little buddy." Gao Peng walked forwards and lifted the King of Dreams up.
The King of Dreams, who had the appearance of a plush toy, was expressionless. Its eyes, which were made of two buttons, were bright in color and luster.
The master of the King of Dreams was dumbstruck by the sight of the King of Dreams being lifted like a doll. He typically did not have much dignity as a master at all in front of the King of Dreams. Usually, the King of Dreams sat on his shoulder when they walked. When did his own Familiar actually become so obedient?
The King of Dreams sensed the evil aura fixed on it from more than ten miles away. It muttered for two seconds before allowing this human to act in collusion with itself.
Gao Peng pinched the face of the King of Dreams. "This blush is quite unique! Who drew it so ugly for you?"
The King of Dreams: "…"
"Where did you guys come from?" Gao Peng asked the plush toy while carrying it.
"We're from the Dark Spirit World." It was that fatty who answered fearfully.
"Apart from you, is everyone else a mute?" Gao Peng looked past this fatty at the crowd behind him. "If you guys are mutes, then just be mutes for the rest of your lives."
Shame and anger showed on all of their faces.
Gao Peng sneered, "I just love seeing how you guys behave as if you want to kill me but are afraid of death. Dumby, Goldie, split these people into two batches and bring them down. Get all the information they know out of them. If their answers don't corroborate, take away the entire batch that answers wrongly and bury them."
Gao Peng could only use the most vicious methods when it came to dealing with these people because these people were the invaders.
Those who were bandits should be treated as such.
It had to be said that the system of punishing the criminal's associates inherited from the Huaxia ancestors was truly useful. Gao Peng was not afraid that they would lie, because one person's lie would implicate everyone else and cause their deaths. Definitely not everyone did not fear death.
After Goldie and Dumby had been split into two batches and taken away separately for interrogation, Gao Peng carried the King of Dreams to the open space outside. To be accurate, it was the back of the Continent Emperor Turtle.
Given how big the world was, it was full of extraordinary things. Gao Peng had thought that Stripey was huge enough, but he had not imagined that there was a monster larger than Stripey. The Continent Emperor Turtle beneath his feet that was as large as an island.
Perhaps he could subdue this Continent Emperor Turtle and construct a city in the air? He could move the entire Southern Sky Group up there and build another supersized city gate and call it Southern Sky Gate.

An hour later, Gao Peng had obtained all the information he wanted to know after asking them questions.
These people were from the Dark Spirit World.
A world even further away than the Black Fog World.
They had traveled across numerous worlds to evade their enemies' pursuit before wandering to the Black Fog World. Before they had arrived at the Black Fog World, they did not know that the human race existed in this world.
Of course, from the outset, their intended destination had been the Jiutian Shidi. The Black Fog World was just a midway stop they happened to pass by.
Due to the exceedingly large size of the Continent Emperor Turtle, it could not pass through typical passageways.
They had especially headed here because they had heard that there was an extraordinarily large tunnel in the Black Fog World.
The reason they were being hunted down was very simple too. It was because the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle had embarked on the Path of Usurpation for the Wind Precepts. The competition on the Path of Usurpation was necessarily cruel.
They did not know how news of the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle embarking on the Path of Usurpation had leaked out. Thereafter, the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle was furiously challenged and pursued.
That very night, a monster came to challenge it. Although that monster retreated after being attacked, it was heavily injured as well.
Invitations to battle came one after another.
During this process, they saw several powerful beings too.
Among the ten projections of the King of Dreams, two of them originated from these powerful beings. The remaining eight projections were Gods. As the King of Dreams did not have sufficient power of its own to create illusions at the God Tier, the perception it gave to Ji Hanwu and the rest was that of eight extremely powerful Quasi Gods.
"Is the Path of Usurpation so intense?"
Hearing this, Gao Peng could not stop frowning.
He remembered that Flamy had embarked on this exact strange thing. She had also attained the ability to devour other flames and thereby strengthen her original flame.
The road Flamy had embarked on was the Fire-type Path of Usurpation. As for the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle, although it had embarked on the Wind-type Path of Usurpation, it was a different route.
However, given that the Wind-type Path of Usurpation was already this cruel, there was no reason that the Fire-type Path of Usurpation could be this safe.
After all, in theory, the number of Fire-type monsters in this world should exceed the number of Wind-type monsters.
Therefore, Flamy would only have more and more competitors.
Gao Peng recalled the scene where he had met the outdated antiques of the Bi Fang Clan. Now, the confusion deep in Gao Peng's heart had been completely resolved. It was no wonder that they regarded Flamy as so important and even wanted to focus on nurturing her.
There were so many Bi Fangs in the Bi Fang Clan. As a Bi Fang that had lived in the wild from young, there was no reason for Flamy to be looked upon favorably for no reason.
Now, it seemed probable that it was exactly because Flamy had embarked on the Fire-type Path of Usurpation.
From the moment he had set foot in Jiutian Shidi, Gao Peng had not come into contact with many people, nor had he come into contact with many monsters before arriving at the Bi Fang Tribe. Thereafter, Flamy was hidden by the Bi Fang Clan.
This was probably the reason Flamy had not encountered other opponents challenging it on the Fire-type Path of Usurpation.
A cigarette hung out of the corner of Dumby's mouth. Goldie did not know how to smoke, so he took a small piece of dried fish out of his pocket and held it with his mouth.
"I can't believe my wife has so many opponents." Goldie's expression sank like the weight of water. The piece of dried fish was bitten into bits and pieces and completely swallowed into his stomach.
Goldie felt a sense of imminent danger. If Flamy had also embarked on the Path of Usurpation, there would definitely be a significant number of competitors.
I want to be Flamy's protector!
If I beat up all her competitors, Flamy will no longer be in danger then.
Crazy-wife-protector Flamy was now activated.
The city on the back of the Continent Emperor Turtle was now left with less than a hundred thousand people.
The city on the back of the Continent Emperor Turtle was not at all as flourishing as the outsiders first saw. It had once been a bustling and prosperous scene. Now that the King of Dreams had used an illusion to mask it, it appeared to be a field of scattered ruins in the illusion. So many people had been injured and killed to the point where the island, which had previously had more than a million people, now had less than one-tenth that number.
The thought of invading and taking over the City of Hope had occurred to them only because they had taken into consideration the fact that the population of humans had plummeted.
They had hoped to fabricate a huge lie using the environment created by the King of Dreams and the combat strength of the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle.
As compared to a tribe left with less than a hundred thousand people, Gao Peng was more interested in the Black Spirit World.
However, the Black Spirit World was a long way from this place.
Under normal circumstances, no one would travel over land and sea for such a long distance, but…
Gao Peng shook his head. "I guess they're what people call the weakest link in the chain."
The standard of the Black Spirit World was vastly different from that of the entire Jiutian Shidi. But to the City of Hope, the Black Spirit World was a huge monster.
Because Trainers at God Tier existed in the Black Spirit World! And not just one!
He had yet to retaliate and attack Jiutian Shidi to fulfill the long-cherished wishes of those before him. But now, this Black Spirit world had suddenly sprung up from behind him.
"Master, we can take over the Black Spirit World, and then retaliate!", Dumby said in a hoarse voice.
"That's right! Those gods are not strong anyway. They're all weak gods," Goldie egged him on.
Gao Peng shook his head. How could things be as simple as they said?
But their words did give Gao Peng some ideas.
As compared to the holistic nature of Jiutian Shidi, the Surface Sea was made up of many surfaces. These surfaces also had a few wild gods…
Gao Peng rubbed his own chin.
"We'll talk about these things in the future. Have you managed to find out who stole the credit of the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle?"
"Master, I've managed to find out. That chap is called the Wing of Savage Sand. It is also one of the Quasi Gods who have embarked on the Wind-type Path of Usurpation. He has been following them for a very long time and moves at an extremely fast speed. However, because there are numerous Quasi Gods on the Continent Emperor Turtle, he did not dare to confront them directly. Over the past few years, nearly half the deaths of people who came to this island have something to do with it."
"By the way, Master, there is a piece of flesh belonging to the Wing of Savage Sand in the storehouse. It's a part of the Wing of Savage Sand that was cut off when it attacked them."
"I see… Moneymaker." Gao Peng snapped his fingers and summoned Moneymaker and Liuguang before bringing over the chunks of flesh belonging to the Wing of Savage Sand on the Continent Emperor Turtle.
"You guys go and bring that chap back. Bring him back alive if you can. If you can't, then bring his corpse back."
Moneymaker shook his tail and fiercely inhaled two mouthfuls of the torn wing of the Wing of Savage Sand. While making squeaking sounds, he turned his head and continued frenziedly chewing in another direction.
Liuguang and Moneymaker flew into the sky.
Gao Peng instructed Goldie to detain that group of people while Gao Peng brought Dumby up the hill.
Dumby did not ask what his master was going to do, either. In any case, he would simply follow his master wherever the latter went.
After crossing two hills and arriving at the edge of the island, there was an upward slope of a hill that spread out in front of them.
Gao Peng walked to the top of the hill and sat down.
He patted the ground beside him. "Hey, can you hear me?"
"I know that you're awake. If you continue remaining silent, I'll saw off your head," Gao Peng said cheekily.
"Don't…" A weak voice emanated from beneath his feet.
"You probably saw what happened on the island earlier. It was you guys who came to us to create trouble. Now that you've landed in my hands, what do you think we should do? You're such a huge mass. If we make jerky out of you, it will be enough to sustain everyone in our tribe for a hundred years."
"… My flesh is sour. My flesh doesn't taste good."
"Do you have a trainer?", Gao Peng asked.
"He's already dead," the Continent Emperor Turtle said sadly.
Dead?
It was better that he was dead. There was less trouble that way.
"So, you're a wido… ah, pft, a Familiar without a master, then. If you come with me, you won't have to continue wandering about in the future."
After ten seconds of silence, "If you avenge my master, I'll listen to you for the rest of my life." The Continent Emperor Turtle spoke in a very resolute tone.
How troublesome…why did he even have to complete a mission before subduing a Familiar?
But Gao Peng envisaged that the Continent Emperor Turtle would be his new base camp. If this fellow took things too hard one day and suddenly nose-dived and fell from the sky, killing everyone with him, Gao Peng himself would not have to worry. But the same could not be said for the rest of the people on the island.
"Alright, then. It's all because I'm a kindhearted person," Gao Peng said good-naturedly.
Report chapter
The autumn breeze was soughing, and the sky was cloudless.
After going through the previous incident, the people in the City of Hope had adapted to the situation after experiencing temporary panic. Naturally, they had also gotten used to the giant island floating above them in the sky.
The vertical distance between the City of Hope and the island was extremely large. The giant island was a dark mass that blocked off a large portion of the light rays and covered the plains under it.
The people in the City of Hope called the island above them the 'Castle in the Sky', which had the metaphorical meaning of a city suspended in the sky.
"Wow. Brother Li, is your entire Southern Sky Group really going to move up there?" The zone of the Southern Sky Group in the City of Hope was bustling with activity. A few workers were gathered together for a chat.
"Yes. That's what Young Master said, so we're just going to move up there too," a man who looked simple, kind and honest smiled and said.
"Eh, I really envy you guys."
"I want to work at the Southern Sky Group too. It's a pity that they have incredibly strict requirements for recruiting workers," another person said enviously.
All of them were workers at the nearby factory. As they were all from the same village, they were on pretty good terms. But Brother Li was the only one working in a factory under the purview of the Southern Sky Group.
"Let's chat again next time. For the time being, the factory will be very busy. I have to go and assist in dismantling a machine tool too." Brother Li threw his cigarette butt into the trash bin and patted his backside before walking towards the factory.
Only the factory that was open was still letting out rumbling sounds.
The chimney on the top of the factory was releasing thick, black smoke. Under the thick smoke, numerous workers and employees of the Southern Sky Group flew up to the Southern Sky Group above them in an orderly manner by sitting on their Familiars or by taking the planes.
Above them, many workers were also carrying out large scale construction on the back of the Continent Emperor Turtle.
Building after building was being constructed, and the clamor of smoke and dust rumbled loudly.
The most eye-catching thing was the gate being constructed at the area on the turtle's tail!
Although they called it a gate, in reality, it was actually a stone arch monument.
The arch monument was fifty meters tall and two hundred meters wide.
It was an extremely majestic sight.
The overall frame and structure of the arch monument was not that complex. It was the very first thing that was built.
A strange dog was crouching in front of the entrance of the gate.
Everyone who walked past could not help but take a second look after seeing this dog.
Three heads, five tails that looked like scorpion tails, and a back full of spikes like that of a porcupine…
Even with a large number of strange creatures in the world, it was very rare to see one that looked this strange.
Furthermore, this air that this strange creature gave off made people feel fear. As it lay on the ground, its mere presence was enough to make numerous Familiars so nervous that they did not even dare to walk.
"Whose dog is this?" After walking past the gate, Ji Hanwu froze momentarily. He had never seen this dog before…why was it suddenly lying here at the gate?
"This is the Familiar which Young Master brought here." Xu Heti continued, "I think it's called the Three-headed Hellhound."
"The Three-headed Hellhound?" Ji Hanwu had an expression of complete confusion. Did the Three-headed Hellhound originally look like this?
It seemed that he had gotten on in years…he could no longer keep up with the times.
"Woof, woof." When Sahara heard the grandfather of his master's master talking about him, he immediately stood up with his head high and his chest out and barked loudly.
The black dog head on the left had a wise and intelligent expression on its face.
This is none other than the grandfather of my master's master. Master's master doesn't want me, but I can become the Familiar of the grandfather of my master's master!
That way, I will be able to bring about a perfect change of my fortunes successfully…
"Awoo…" The black dog head called out to the rightmost white dog head.
The white dog head understood tacitly. Its eyes flashed.
The black and white dog head in the middle was completely confused. What are you two fools talking about? Why can't I understand anything at all? Are you guys secretly speaking ill of me behind my back again?
"Woof, woof, woof!"
The black and white dog head barked frenziedly at the two dog heads on its left and right.
Quick, tell me! Are you guys secretly speaking ill of me behind my back?!
The white dog head and the black dog head looked straight ahead. They could not be bothered to respond to this idiot. This chap would only ruin things. It was better not to tell him.
The black and white dog head was extremely angry. He felt that his own pride had been attacked. He opened his mouth and started biting randomly at the black dog head on his left.
The black dog head tolerated, tolerated, and continued to tolerate…
In the end, he could no longer tolerate it.
"Eh, It's not going too smooth with this Familiar." Ji Hanwu shook his head and silently walked away.
Beside him, Xu Heti and Xu Heming both nodded their heads repeatedly, expressing their agreement.
On the west side of the Black Fog World, in a forest made of stones of strange shapes, a phoenix made of rock was currently standing on the thickest rock pillar in the middle and pecking at the little ash-gray bugs in the cracks of its own back.
Not far from the stone pillar beneath this stone phoenix lay the corpse of the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle.
From head to toe, the phoenix was completely made of ash-gray rock. The only bright parts of the phoenix were its two eyeballs.
Its dark green eyes were dazzling, like two precious sparkling stones.
Was it this one?
Hiding in the dark, Liuguang cast a meaningful glance at Moneymaker.
Moneymaker returned his gaze in tacit understanding.
The two small Familiars had come to some form of mutual understanding.
Liuguang hid in the shadows and slowly approached the stone phoenix.
Its appearance could not be seen in the shadows. Even the edge of its knife was just a dim, faint light.
In Liuguang's field of vision, a bright streak of red light that appeared from time to time was gradually gathering on the neck area of this stone phoenix.
The murderous aura was concealed perfectly.
One line, two lines, three lines… more and more red lines appeared on the chest and the tail area of the stone phoenix.
Just when the stone phoenix, which was grooming its plumage, was completely unaware of all this…
A shadow passed by in a flash. The stone phoenix raised its head abruptly, its eyes gleaming with a rich green light. But it was still too slow.
By the time it had raised its head, Liuguang had already appeared a thousand meters away.
The stone phoenix turned its head around arduously. A black line on its neck cut it open.
Bang!
The head of the stone phoenix separated from its body. With a thud, its head landed on the ground and rolled twice. A strange black light also flashed on the surface of the stone phoenix's body.
This was the effect of Liuguang's Sinking Darkness. It could weaken the enemy's protective armor, and its effect could be multiplied up to a maximum of nine times.
The strange thing was that the cross-section of the decapitated neck was smooth and clean as if it had been washed by water. Smack in the middle was an extremely tiny red circle.
The small red circle was probably the spine of the stone phoenix.
The area of the spine where it had been decapitated was giving off rising hot vapor.
Liuguang's body flew by again in a flash.
The stone phoenix was torn to pieces. Its wings, tail, and legs had all detached from the surface of its body. Within an instant, it had been cut up into a pile of parts.
Liuguang appeared on the branch in the center of a faraway tree. He licked his own blade while gazing icily at the stone phoenix in the distance.
He would not give any enemy the chance to plan tactics or prepare skills. Towards all enemies, his principle was always to deal with the fatal blow in one shot. Thereafter, he would attack again and again. It was impossible to turn the tables around on the spot.
The eyes of the stone phoenix's decapitated head, which had fallen on the ground, showed some hints of indignation. I had yet to prepare my ability, how could you just…
Whoosh…
The light reflected off the blade flashed by.
The head of the stone phoenix was split into two.
Liuguang calmly licked the surface of his own blade.
"You're so disgusting, licking it like that. You've licked away all the blood and brain juice of the kill." Moneymaker stood on his tiptoes and hopped towards him. He stored the corpses of the stone phoenix and the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle lying on the ground into his treasure chamber.
"All those assassins lick it like this." Liuguang's expression turned solemn.

Chapter 773: Voucher of Wind
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Liuguang and Moneymaker returned in succession, bringing back the corpses of Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle and Stone Phoenix.
"This is Wing of Savage Sand?" Gao Peng ordered people to bring over the captives on the Continent Emperor Turtle's back, asking as he pointed at the Stone Phoenix corpse.
"Yes." These people were astonished when they saw the corpse on the ground.
They weren't astonished by the fact that Gao Peng could kill Wing of Savage Sand since its strength was never greater than theirs. Wing of Savage Sand just managed to survive time after time, relying on its speed and defense abilities.
But they were indeed shocked that Wing of Savage Sand was killed so quickly.
It's only been a short while.
Tracing Wing of Savage Sand's tracks, preventing it from fleeing and killing it, these are all signs of Gao Peng's true strength.
"I killed Wing of Savage Sand for you. I consider it avenging you. Have you given more consideration to my previous suggestions?" Gao Peng asked with a shadow of a smile.
A brief silence.
A while later, the fatty who conversed with Gao Peng said with a complex expression, "If we…."
"You are unqualified to make conditions! I just gave you an opportunity to live," said Gao Peng in a low voice.
"Okay, I consent to you on their behalf," the oldest person in the crowd said.
"You can represent them?" Gao Peng's eyes glimmered.
This elder has been there the whole time, but he never spoke. Gao Peng thought he was just some ordinary official, but it seems like he concealed himself pretty well.
"I'm the priest of the tribe, so I should be considered qualified," the old man coughed.
"Your Grace, I have something to tell you. It's about the Wind Type Path of Rivalry."
"Oh?" A grin crept up Gao Peng's face. He was interested in these subjects.
He told the rest of the people to go and rest. Gao Peng made two cups of tea. The elder had a complicated expression on his face as he sat in his seat.
"Your Grace, is our tribe going to completely assimilate into yours or…?"
"Of course it'll be completely assimilated," Gao Peng said affirmatively.
That's incontestable.
Otherwise, if they continue to live with their original tribe name, what's the point of subduing them? The tribe's blood will forever run in their veins. Only by making them assimilate into Huaxia Tribe would they truly become part of Huaxia after dozens of generations.
"Alright," The elder sighed, but continued, "Your Grace probably knows that Wing of Savage Sand is related to Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle that's always followed us."
"I know." Gao Peng nodded.
"Actually, not only does Wing of Savage Sand want to kill Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle, but we also want to help Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle kill Wing of Savage Sand because they are both competitors on the Wind Type Path of Rivalry. They have something in their bodies called Voucher of Wind, which they can obtain from each other's corpses." The elder closed his eyes.
"Voucher of Wind?" Gao Peng turned around to observe the two corpses but didn't see the Voucher of Wind he mentioned after scrutiny.
"It's useless, only the competitors on the Wind Type Path of Rivalry have a way to expropriate it."
Where the hell am I going to find a Wind Type Path of Rivalry Familiar!?
Liuguang has transformed entirely to Dark type, and it's unrelated to Wind type.
Gao Peng was speechless. Whatever, he'll just give it to Dark Child to decompose.
Dark Child needed ten minutes to decompose this body. Ten minutes later, the island was still quiet.
"Master, I've decomposed it," Dark Child said secretly.
Gao Peng didn't show any expressions. He took over a blue and white badge Dark Child handed him.
When the blue and white badge in Gao Peng's hand was exposed in the air, the monsters in the air fell into disorder.
"All the Wind type monsters are being attracted." Gao Peng fell into thought, looking at the blue and white badge in his palm. It has such a strong attraction.
If you give this Voucher of Wind to a normal monster, could that monster become a new Wind type competitor?
Gao Peng wanted to try it the moment he got the idea.
He gave the blue and white badge to a low-level Wind type monster.
But this Wind type monster didn't seem to have any changes. It continued to howl madly like an idiot.
Gao Peng could only dissect it and take the Voucher of Wind out of its stomach.
After passing through a stomach, the Voucher of Wind didn't have any changes.
If there's a Voucher of Wind, then there must be a Voucher of Fire. He might as well use this Voucher of Wind to trade with others in the future.
Gao Peng made his decision and hid this item in Silly's space.
If it's useless now, then he'll just put it aside.
Just because it's useless now doesn't mean it'll be useless in the future.
Seeing these Wind type monsters' craze over it, perhaps he can use it as some sort of "compensation," and hire some free fighters.
Aside from the two Vouchers of Wind, there were other reaps.
Some Quasi God Tier Meat Essence.
Gao Peng divided these Meat Essences among Goldie, Liuguang, and Moneymaker.
Moneymaker promoted by two levels and Goldie and Liuguang both promoted by one level. Currently they're all at level 99.
Soon….
Gao Peng felt his Familiars' strengths are all going to rupture soon.
The rest of the human race on Continent Emperor Turtle's back assimilated into the Huaxia tribe. The two civilizations had cultural collisions and created brilliant sparks.
The secret medicine of their tribe had some similarities with the Huaxia Tribe's Familiar Reagent.
Many of the secret medicines in their tribes are unique, legacies from countless years passed down in their civilization.
Of course, because many of the Familiars are unique to their world, their actual values aren't as high as imagined. Rather, they have more research value.
"Cousin, cousin, can you see if there's something wrong with my Familiar?" Karen Chen barged into Gao Peng's courtyard.
Gao Peng's arms remained steady. He finished combining the last bit of solvent, then put it on the tube rack on the table.
"How old are you? You're still so careless, if you keep being like this you'll never get married."
"How is that possible? Just by having you as my cousin, the people who want to marry me can line up from the Southern Heavenly Gates all the way to the City of Hope." Karen Chen knitted her brow and humphed.
Gao Peng: "…" Should I praise you, or should I praise you?
"Cousin, you gave me this Familiar, is it about to die?" Karen Chen summoned her Familiar.
A giant black python a dozen feet long covered in wilted yellowed leaves coiled on the ground.
This looks like…the Dark Dodder from the sewers.
It's been a couple of years. After Gao Peng gave it to his cousin, he hasn't thought much about it.
The Dark Dodder seemed to recognize Gao Peng, the 'culprit' who caught it out of the sewer. Its branches and leaves curled up feebly to greet Gao Peng.
"What did you feed it?"
"Just…just some monster core crystals."
"Stop feeding it for now. It's too full. It was about to evolve, but then you kept feeding it, so its evolution is postponed so it can digest nutrients. After a while, this Dodder became depressed."

Chapter 774: Treasure Space
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Oh, it's depressed." Karen Chen fell silent, reflecting on what she did wrong. But she didn't really do anything. She just fed it a little too much, why is it depressed?
"Look, its leaves are big and fat." Gao Peng held the Dark Dodder's leaves in his fingers, "Such fat leaves are full of energy, yet every time it's halfway through evolution, it gets interrupted."
"Over time, it became more and more obese, more and more ugly. Because of the changes in its appearance, it began feeling inferior, wretched, afraid to talk to other female vines, and finally, it developed depression."
"???" Karen Chen.
"Alright, go back and give it some fermented bean water so it can digest the extra energy in its body. After a while, it'll evolve on its own. After that, just spend more time with it, and its depression will get better."
Karen Chen was doubtful.
After handling the matters here, Gao Peng inspected the Southern Sky Group again.
The new Southern Sky Headquarters has been built on the Continent Emperor Turtle's back. It was built on the foundation of the original ruins, and it only took ten days to construct the new headquarters.
The new headquarters' area is more than double the original.
Only a small part of the factory was preserved. A small artificial lake was also dug on the Continent Emperor Turtle's back.
Everyone else naturally envied the fact that Southern Sky Group moved into the sky, including top tribes like White Dragon.
This type of headquarters is movable and can fly in the sky. Its safety and adaptability are much better than normal bases.
Ji Hanwu took the other tribal patriarchs and elders to tour the new island on the Continent Emperor Turtle's back.
Gao Peng also saw someone he recognized, You Xuanming from Xuanhu Tribe.
The master of Thousand-handed Faceless Buddha…
A couple of years ago, Thousand-handed Faceless Buddha could still rival Gao Peng's Familiars, but now it's left far behind.
As the master of Thousand-handed Faceless Buddha, You Xuanming naturally had very complex emotions when he saw Gao Peng again.
Gao Peng greeted him with a smile.
You Xuanming hesitated for a bit, managed to squeeze a smile, and nodded.
Looking at Gao Peng's back as he walked away, You Xuanming inhaled deeply and finally sighed.
"Yes, this tree has to be planted here, don't make it crooked!" An arrogant and irritated voice rang.
Turning around the mountain peak, Gao Peng saw a small, domineering person flying in the sky, their hands on their waist.
"And this Water Dragon Grass, plant it at a place where the water is 6.74 meters deep and has a swift current, the leaf has to face the middle of the current."
"And this Geng Dragon Vine, plant one-third of it in the ground, the remaining two-thirds…idiot! Why are you standing so close to the Azure Dragon Flower? Do you want to ruin my favorite little flower!?"
The Dragon Elf King was stamping with rage in the air. This elf king, only the size of Goldie's palm, had a temper that was completely disproportionate to its body size.
"Ya!" Dragon Elf King turned around and saw Gao Peng, and couldn't contain a scream. "It's you!"
"Looks like you're doing a good job taking care of them," Gao Peng praised the little elf, looking around at the developmental conditions of the Dragon type plants.
Dragon Elf King was a little unconfident, but after it heard Gao Peng praise itself, it immediately stuck out its chest, its face full of pride.
"Of course. You've made a brilliant decision by leaving these things to me."
"Moneymaker, Silly," Gao Peng called over the two little treasures, ordering them to take out a bunch of Dragon type plants to give to Dragon Elf King.
Silly was nonchalant, as long as you don't touch its juice, it's fine with anything.
But Moneymaker trembled, its loyalty to Gao Peng made it hand over the items obediently.
Each new Dragon type plant can bring new power to the Dragon Elf King. In return, it can also help the Dragon type plant flourish. It's a mutually beneficial situation.
Moneymaker clenched the plants in its left hand. Dragon Elf King couldn't grab it the first time.
It blanked for a second.
Dragon Elf King used more force.
Moneymaker pursed its lips, loosening its nails. Dragon Elf King crashed into a tree with a thump.
Moneymaker muttered to itself, looking like it lost its senses.
After having its treasures taken, Moneymaker's steps were weak. It touched the ground with its toes, floating as it walked like it could be blown away by the wind.
It stood on its hind legs, placing its forelegs on its waist, its mustache quivering.
"What…are you doing?" Gao Peng was speechless.
"I've been emptied." Moneymaker's eyes brimmed with tears.
"…" Why are you being so dramatic!?
"If you've been emptied, then replenish yourself with nutrients."
"With…what?"
Moneymaker picked up a stone on the ground and put it into its space. It took two steps forward and pulled another tuft of grass full of dirt.
"Mud, grass, and cigarette butts. Glass, sand, and garbage chunks. Whatever you don't want, give it to me."
After another two steps, Moneymaker secretly observed Gao Peng from the corner of its eyes. Seeing that Gao Peng didn't react at all, it continued walking, complaining miserably.
Moneymaker put everything it saw into its space, whether it be rocks or muddy grass. Not long after, it dug a great pit in the ground.
"Stop digging, if you keep going the entire Continent Emperor Turtle is going to be penetrated." Black lines appeared on the corner of Gao Peng's eyes.
If it keeps going, after a while, the mountain peaks on Continent Emperor Turtle's back are going to be penetrated.
Moneymaker's treasure space is a very peculiar thing. At first, Gao Peng thought it was a limited space.
But eventually, he realized Moneymaker's treasure space doesn't have any size limits.
In a sense, its treasure space is infinitely big!
Of course, this is somewhat biased.
Moneymaker's treasure space uses a kind of energy called "Treasure Aura."
When any treasure is stored into Moneymaker's space, it creates energy called Treasure Aura after its preciousness, rarity, and value are weighed. Moneymaker's space increases continuously with the volume of Treasure Aura. With a dense Treasure Aura, it can even open up space thousands and tens of thousands of times the size of the original space.
Everything has Treasure Aura, even a single leaf of grass, even a single grain of sand.
It's just that their Treasure Auras are very weak, weak enough that they can't even open up a space that can hold them.
"Elf King, all the plants that you're looking after, aside from giving a share to my grandpa's group, give the rest to Moneymaker," Gao Peng said.
Dragon Elf King agreed that it was fine. Its only hobby was planting Dragon type plants and looking after Dragon type plants. It didn't care who it gave the fruit to.
Moneymaker's eyes lit up, its head no longer hurt, its back was no longer sore, and it withdrew the claws on its waist.
"Chirp chirp." A yellow bird flew in from a distance and circled in the sky, "Someone's looking for you, someone's looking for you."

Chapter 775: Divine Egg

"Okay, I know." Gao Peng waved his hand, and the little yellow bird in the sky flew away, chirping.
These are new Familiars bred by the group's researchers in the time Gao Peng was gone. They're called Human Speech Birds.
Human Speech Birds can talk in the human tongue, and their IQs aren't any lower than 10-year-old humans.
Gao Peng was intrigued, so it took out a monster core crystal from his pocket. The glimmering yellow core crystal was more dazzling than a diamond.
The Human Speech Bird that was halfway gone turned its body 180 degrees around and landed at Gao Peng's feet.
It put its two wings together and bowed continuously.
"Happy new year boss, be prosperous boss, marry 100 wives in the new year boss."
Who taught it these things…
"You can't say happy new year randomly." Gao Peng knelt down to rub the Human Speech Bird's little head and gave it the core crystal.
The Human Speech Bird was so happy its eyes squinted to a slit, and its mouth was flat from smiling.
"A hundred? I'm going to marry five hundred." Gao Peng teased the little yellow bird with a grin.
The little yellow bird was astonished when it heard what Gao Peng said. "Pervert!"
Gao Peng, "…"
Whose little bird is this, why is it so untamed?
"Goldie." Gao Peng gave Goldie a look.
Goldie understood.
It took a step forward. Its shadow was hovering over the Human Speech Bird.
The Human Speech Bird raised its head. The sunlight was blocked out, and a giant looked down at it.
It trembled.
The Human Speech Bird spread its wings and got ready to flee when a finger stabbed down like a column.
The Human Speech Bird's head staggered, it spread its wings and fell on the ground.
Goldie withdrew its carrot-sized finger, letting out a wicked chuckle from its mouth.
It looked at Gao Peng, master and subordinate, chuckling like two heartless tyrants.
"Grandpa, you were looking for me?" Gao Peng walked into the Southern Sky Group plaza.
"Yes, there are some things, but they're not urgent. Have a cup of tea first." Ji Hanwu poured a cup of tea for Gao Peng and gestured at him to sit.
Gao Peng sat down, puzzled. He chugged the tea down in one gulp.
"What is it, Grandpa?"
"Several things. If I don't look for you, you're probably going to go off again after a while." Ji Hanwu shook his head. He talked about Gao Peng running off, but he wasn't worried at all.
Gao Peng wasn't awkward having his plans pointed out, he just smiled.
"First thing, these foreigners you subdued, since you said they should live on the Continent Emperor Turtle island when we were developing a city, it overlapped with their living area, and there were some conflicts. But these foreigners might've been beaten up by you before, so they were pretty easy to talk with."
"A couple of elders from their tribes came and discussed with me afterward. I decided to take in most of the youths from their tribes into our Southern Sky Group, what do you think?"
Gao Peng blanked. That's what he wanted to tell me?
After a moment of silence, Gao Peng nodded, "Let's do what you said. But they are foreigners, after all, so they can't be trusted completely yet. Give them some peripheral jobs. It's best to incorporate them into the core after a couple of generations, or after exams."
"Rest assured."
"The other thing is your Uncle Liu's Familiar returned from the depths of the Black Fog World. It also brought back a strange item. Go take a look when you're free."
"Then let's go now," Gao Peng said as he rose.
Uncle Liu settled in a small courtyard on the mountain. The courtyard was located on a clearing on the mountain. There was a fence outside the courtyard, circling a small pond.
Casual and unique, a beautiful sight.
The door to the courtyard was wide open, that fit Uncle Liu's style.
"Gao Peng, there's divine aura." Fatty Big Sea frowned and said in a low voice,
"Divine?"
Gao Peng blanked for a second, nodding without a change in expression.
"You're here, Little Gao and Old Ji. I just made some food, come eat with me." Uncle Liu came out of the house with a bowl and placed it on the wooden table in the courtyard, gesturing at Gao Peng to come over. "I heard Old Ji said you were coming, so I went to buy some dragon meat."
Gao Peng nodded, looking at the courtyard behind Uncle Liu, a hint of inquisitiveness in his eyes.
"You sensed it, huh. It's that thing in my backyard. My vulture brought it back a while ago."
"Where's the Blood Eye Bearded Vulture?" Gao Peng didn't see the Blood Eye Bearded Vulture. Its body size makes it hard to hide.
"It's gone off to train, probably behind that hill." Uncle Liu pointed at a distant mountain with his chopsticks.
After dinner, Uncle Liu brought Gao Peng and Ji Hanwu to his backyard.
The backyard was much more spacious than Gao Peng imagined, an enormous black egg stood in the spacious backyard.
The black egg was five meters tall. Its silhouette looked like a goose egg.
Many dark purple cloud-like patterns ran on the surface of the black egg. The surface also had two layers of black halos around it.
Just from its appearance, you could tell this enormous egg was extraordinary.
[Item Name] Innate God of Black Fog (Egg)
[Item Description] The God of Fog fell on the battlefield. After countless years of nirvana, it finally reformed into an egg, but in the process of nirvana, it absorbed a lot of Dark Power, causing some mutations.
Sh*t, a divine egg?
Gao Peng didn't know what to say, perhaps Uncle Liu is the legendary Chosen Son?
Uh…at his age maybe "Chosen Son" isn't so appropriate. Maybe he's the legendary "Chosen Uncle."
"Big Sea, if a fallen God congeals into an egg, would it still have memories of the past after birth?"
"Normally, it wouldn't," Fatty Big Sea's face was perplexed. "Ah, Gao Peng, you're saying this is a reborn God? I thought it was a God's Offspring or Cursed God's egg."
"It's the God of Fog you mentioned before, the one who fought against many on its own."
"That's it?" Fatty Big Sea looked at the egg with confusion. "I remember it wasn't Dark attribute. Look how black this egg is, it's almost turned into a thousand-year-old egg."
Fatty Big Sea cleared its throat, "After Gods fall– take note, a real fall, not those who are heavily injured and fall asleep– after they fall, their memories disappear, unless they've made preparations."
Uncle Liu, who was listening on the side, hesitated for a long while, "Little Peng, you're saying there's a God in this egg?"
"Yeah."
"Then, you have it." Uncle Liu chuckled.
Gao Peng looked at Uncle Liu with shock.
Uncle Liu shook his head, "I'm old. This thing is probably more helpful to you young people."
"That's okay. You take care of it, Uncle Liu. Also, don't let the people from other tribes know," Gao Peng said seriously, "Although it seems like we are in cooperation now. If they find out about this egg…Their tribes have lots of people."
"You really don't want it?" Uncle Liu was helpless. "This is a new year's gift from uncle. See, it's almost a new year, uncle doesn't have anything else good for you."
Gao Peng didn't know whether he should cry or laugh, but he wasn't being humble either. He's about to have a mass of Familiars who are going to become Gods, and he doesn't know when this egg will hatch. By the time it does, it'll be pretty meaningless to him. "The metal man who returned with me this time is a God…a living one."
And Dumby's going to break through God Tier in two months at most.
"I like to travel around. I'm more assured leaving this egg at home."
"The metal man who returned with you is a God?" Old Ji was bewildered. He thought it was Gao Peng's friend. He even asked someone to make a bucket of metal water for it to drink.

"Oh right, I picked this up with the egg. It looks pretty, you must accept it." Uncle Liu went back to the house and brought out a transparent cape.
It's made of some transparent material similar to glass, but it's much softer than glass.
You can see its rough silhouette, but if you're not paying attention, it easily gets lost in your sight.
[Divine Artifact Name] Magic Crystal Invisibility Cape (Divine Artifact)
[Precept Content] Invisibility Rule 4.2%
Gao Peng was silent. He raised his head to meet Uncle Liu's eyes. A huge golden word seemed to appear at the top of Uncle Liu's head–LUCKY!
"Uncle, you picked this up too?"
"Yeah, not far from the egg."
So that's how it is, then this cape is probably the God of Fog's Divine Artifact.
What a pleasant surprise.
Gao Peng waved his hand to show he couldn't take it. Uncle Liu picked it up. It belongs to Uncle Liu.
But just like how every new year the older relatives in the family force red envelopes into your hands, in the end, Gao Peng sighed, turned his head away, and took it over helplessly.
"Alright, then I'll take care of it for a while for the little guy inside this egg, and I'll give it back once it's grown up."
"Yup, that's the way," Goldie added.
And its next sentence was: "President Gao, this Divine Artifact…." Goldie rubbed its palms.
Its eyes were full of earnest anticipation.
"Why are you all looking at me like that…?"
Goldie saw Gao Peng, Ji Hanwu, and the rest all looking at itself, and was suddenly a little embarrassed.
Could it be…they envy my beauty?
I know I'm handsome. After all, I'm Gao Peng's favorite Familiar. If I weren't so handsome, how could he like me so much? But…but I'm a duck, you guys are humans.
I already have Flamy, and my future spouse must be a female bird!
Thinking about this, the embarrassment on Goldie's face gradually melted away, and it started taking on a perverse expression.
"I can't give this to you." Gao Peng raised his index finger and waved it.
"Why not?" Goldie was defiant.
"You already have a Divine Artifact, and this Divine Artifact's effect is invisibility. You don't need to be invisible, you–just need to take all the beatings." Gao Peng shook his head.
Goldie: "???"
"If you're invisible, who's the enemy going to hit? You're gonna let us old, weak, ill, and disabled, face the attacks?" Gao Peng said with grief.
Behind Gao Peng, Da Zi, Liuguang, Desolion, Moneymaker, Silly, Dragon Ant, White Clam, and Dragon Cultivation Book all nodded frantically.
Goldie was befuddled.
It somehow felt having this ability awakened back then was a mistake.
Ji Hanwu and Uncle Liu looked at the giant scarlet ax tied to Goldie's back, so that was a Divine Artifact, they thought it was just an ordinary weapon.
"Then, who are you giving this Divine Artifact to?" Goldie asked.
All the other Familiars turned their attention over.
Some acted cute with their heads crooked. Some blinked their eyes.
They actually didn't have a perverse need for Divine Artifacts. They were just somewhat secretly competitive as Gao Peng's Familiars.
When Gao Peng's not around, these little scheming monsters secretly compete with each other over Gao Peng's favor.
For example, they saw this Divine Artifact as a sign of Gao Peng's favor and approval.
"You will all have Divine Artifacts in the future. I only distribute Divine Artifacts according to attributes and ability necessities." Gao Peng said in a low voice.
The Familiars whined and stopped chattering.
Gao Peng made it clear. Naturally, they knew who this Divine Artifact was going to.
Liuguang stuck out its chest, standing up 1.6 meters tall, like a tall elementary student in the year 2000 standing before Gao Peng, like a victorious general.
Gao Peng put the cape on this little general and stroked its head.
The little general was so happy.
After it put on the cape, Liuguang twirled around and vanished in place….
Not in a spatial sense, but rather vanished from a visual, auditory, and olfactory sense.
Gao Peng could feel Liuguang was standing right before him through the Blood Contract, but he didn't see anything in front of him.
This sort of assassin…is the kind that's most alerting.
"Gao Peng, Gao Peng, do I look good?" Liuguang's voice came from the air.
All the Familiars who couldn't see Liuguang nodded insincerely, "Great,""Super handsome,""What a stud…."
"Hahahahaha…" Liuguang's uncontrollable laughter came from the air.
Gao Peng put a hand on his forehead. No matter how short Liuguang used to be, you could still see it. But now it's completely gone.
He couldn't tell if it was a good thing or not.
But again,
Liuguang would probably be happy when it finds out the truth.
In the next couple hours, Liuguang would keep passing by other creatures "unintentionally," shaking the cape on its back.
Everyone who couldn't see Liuguang continued doing their own things.
Then Liuguang would clear its throat.
And they were suddenly roused, making all sorts of exaggerated expressions, "Liuguang's so cute today,""Exactly."
Descending from Continent Emperor Turtle's back, Gao Peng came to the Earth Star world through the rift in the Desolate Labyrinth.
The rift in the Desolate Labyrinth increased at least tenfold in size.
The highest tier of monsters than can directly pass through the rift also changed to Overlord Tier.
Of course, many Monster Trainers awaken their Familiars' spatial ability after reaching Emperor Tier, so this tier limitation by the spatial rift is meaningless. Since Earth Star is connected to Jiutian Shidi now, the tier limitation on Earth Star also disappeared.
Yuzhou hasn't been demolished either. The original Yuzhou has expanded immensely, the Base city of Yuzhou has become a central city of Asia.
Because there's a spatial rift that leads to the Black Fog World in Yuzhou, that's the root cause it could become a central city of Asia.
The Yangtze River toiled beneath the mountain. Ten bridges that looked like dragons connected the two coasts of Yuzhou.
Dark currents ran beneath the turbulent river surface.
A behemoth revealed a scale or the tip of a claw every now and then on the water.
These behemoths of the river only need to tumble once on the river surface to break the bridges up like wooden blocks.
But at this moment, these behemoths swam beneath the water cautiously, lining up one after another, afraid to damage the bridges above their heads.
After passing this "deceleration strip" in Yuzhou, the behemoths in the river began to splash around joyously again in the river.
Charging out of the river surface, turning, jumping, releasing the vigorous energy in their bodies.
Mouth of the Yangtze River: East Sea.
Thousand-meter waves surged on the sea surface, thunder clouds gathered overhead, rain poured down, and the ink-colored sea rose as if an enormous super behemoth was about to be born from the sea.
Rumble…
Lightning struck, illuminating the dim world.
On the sea, a ten-thousand-meter-tall sea giant strode forth on the waves. Its destination was the west.

Countless sea behemoths in its path moved out of its path. Each of the sea giant's steps created gigantic waves on the sea.
Taking large strides, the kungfu sea giant disappeared on the horizon in the blink of an eye.
Everywhere it stepped was silent, only ripples continued to spread.
"Reporting, reporting! A giant is approaching the coast on the East Sea." Soldiers on coast guard cried in alarm, quickly reporting the situation through radiogram.
"Buzz…Received, can you try to halt it?"
This solder looked at the ten-thousand-meter-tall giant in silence.
What does ten thousand meters mean? Mount Everest is 8,848 meters tall, but that's its altitude above sea level. When you stand at the foot of Mount Everest and raise your head to look at the summit, the summit you see is not 8,000 some meters tall.
This sea giant's height was approximately equal to two Mount Everests stacked on top of each other.
Needless to say, just its body size standing here brought a huge sense of oppression.
A large shadow arrived like an ultimate darkness, the entire region around the coast was enveloped by the shadow.
"Reporting…we can't."
The super giant running rampant on the sea surface ignored the line of defense on the coast.
It took a step forward, advancing thousands of meters.
Only tens of thousands of steps to go from East Sea to Yuzhou.
Boom–
Boom–
The sea giant began running forward.
Each step exploded toiling waves on the river surface.
Thunder clouds surrounded the sea giant, followed by downpour.
Red alerts reached all the way to Yuzhou.
Glaring warning lights and sirens pierced the night sky, the red line along the two banks of the Yangtze River were like an awakened dragon.
"Warning– assessing strength, at least the peak of Overlord Tier…initial stage of Saint Tier…late stage of Saint Tier monster is approaching Yuzhou. Yuzhou citizens, please enter bomb shelters."
Gao Peng squinted and looked to the east. Mountains stood there, the sun was glaring.
But through the Blood Contract Gao Peng felt a familiar aura coming closer, very similar to the aura of Growing Brain.
After a moment of silence, Gao Peng suddenly blinked, could he have messed up?
Currently, in the Base city of Yuzhou.
Department of Safety and Defense.
A department created by many Asian countries and financial groups after the Cataclysm.
The Department of Safety and Defense is responsible for guarding and preventing monster invasion. The warning system on the banks of the Yangtze River was set up by them.
Because of the existence of Huaxia Tribe, the authoritative departments of the Base city of Yuzhou are all controlled by Huaxia people. But to show the tolerance of a great nation and also to silence them, Huaxia Tribe created this merely nominal department with little function.
In outsiders' eyes, this department has great function– it can guard and defend against monster invasions. But in reality there were many departments whose functions overlapped with it, with clearer division of labor.
So the leisurely Department of Safety and Defense began all sorts of big projects. After all, all the department staff were executives of all sorts of financial groups and countries in Asia, they lacked neither money nor labor. The first big projects they started– Yangtze River and the Yellow River's alarm system along the river, peri-Asian coastal lines of defense, Wulong Mountain region skylight systems….
The most peculiar was the Wulong Mountain region skylight system. They made it in the name of giving monsters a beautiful night sky. Every night many lights floated in the sky and twinkled like stars.
This made the monsters of Wulong region the subject of mockery for other regions' monsters.
Currently, within the Department of Safety and Defense, many officers were holding a meeting in a boardroom.
On the screen before them was footage from a drone.
But due to the elevation, this drone, flying ten thousand meters in the sky, only filmed the sea giant's head. Clouds covered the view of the giant's body.
"This monster is really big, sumnida!" (meant to imitate a Korean accent, might be inappropriate to include)
"Let's send a troop to intercept this monster. If it enters Yuzhou it'll cause a lot of casualties."
"This monster is very strong, it's a legendary Saint Tier monster. Huaxia people have a better hand than we imagine, let them take care of it themselves."
"But we have citizens in the city too…."
"Ah shibal…that's very troublesome sumnida." (again, korean accent)
"Ah? But we shouldn't do that should we?"
"But I want to see the Huaxia people make a fool of themselves too."
Arguments flew in the boardroom.
But overall the worst were to see the Huaxia Tribe embarrass itself. After the world became its current state, even if particular people had bad thoughts against others, they didn't dare to say it in this sort of public occasion.
Humans are a very strange organism. They can fight to the death over a bit of limited resources, but when facing a common enemy, they can band together without hesitation, even if they used to dislike each other or even tried to kill each other in the past.
"Let's go, we're going to receive Growing Brain." Gao Peng said as he summoned Desolion.
Seeing all the blaring alarms along the river, he knew Growing Brain must have made a big commotion. He might as well go receive it at the downstream of the Yangtze River.
Desolion's body shifted and became a 3-meter-long size. This size is most suitable for Gao Peng to sit on. Gao Peng's legs can hang over the sides perfectly, and he wouldn't worry about falling off.
Desolion slammed its paw, the river water beneath its feet instantly froze into a small isle. Desolion ran to the downstream on this isle.
The ice floating on the river were soon swallowed by the giant waves.
"Huh, this big guy seems to have stopped."
"Is it scheming something?"
"Ah, look, it's shrinking."
The drone quickly descended under remote control, clouds swept past it.
An ice-blue isle appeared in the center of the Yangtze River.
The sea giant broke up layer by layer. The collapsing sea water rushed into the Yangtze River, raising its water level.
There seemed to be a white monster in the center of the isle. A person stood next to it. That monster rose its head, then the footage went black.
"You've made too big of a commotion, be careful next time," Gao Peng said to Growing Brain.
The two-meter-tall waterman standing before Gao Peng nodded to show it understood.
"Let's go, I brought you something that can make you evolve." Gao Peng lept and got on Desolion's back, the two beasts and one human drew two white lines and landed in a mountain creek in the middle of the mountains on either side of the river, and found flat ground.
Gao Peng summoned Silly, taking out a dark purple mushroom-like thing from Silly's space.
The bottom part was a tendon from a monster's spine, the top was an umbrella-shaped brain.
The surface of the dark purple tendon had many greenish black veins. The parts of the veins exposed in the air were a greenish black color, but parts of them were buried in the tendon.
The veins embedded in the tendon were a sapphire color.
The most amazing thing is the brain at the top of the tendon was still alive.
Contracting and exhaling like a heart.
And this brain wasn't very big compared to the tendon beneath it, their size difference was like that of an enokitake.
The surface of the brain was covered with greenish black veins, but after this brain was exposed to air, it kept absorbing the gas in the air, coagulating into peanut-sized blood drops on its surface.
After Silly took this thing out, it flew backwards a bit, and secretly sighed in relief.
Gao Peng finally took this gross thing out of my space.
Gao Peng rolled his eyes, this thing's not even that gross, why are you running?
He gestured at Silly to fly back.
He took out some materials from Silly's body and a mixing table.
He began mixing in the wild.
Desolion swung its claw, four ice walls rose from the ground, icy mist drifted in the air. The insects, small animals, and bacteria on the ground and in the dirt were instantly frozen into ice bits. A gust of wind blew past, and a hole suddenly opened on an ice wall. All the ice bits were disposed of from the hole.
The icy air on the four ice walls gathered and didn't spread outwards, nor did it absorb the heat from surrounding air, so the temperature in the area Gao Peng was in didn't change.
Ten minutes later, Gao Peng mixed half a bottle of black chemical.
Gao Peng used a pipette to suck two drops of the black juice to drip onto the ground. Sizzle–
Without even a bit of smoke, two washbasin-sized pits were corroded in the ground.
Gao Peng nodded in satisfaction, then poured the rest of the chemicals in his hand onto the tendon.
The tendon instantly drew taut.
Like a hurt earthworm, it curled its body into a ring. The dark purple skin cracked, exposing the bloody inside.
Ahhhhhhh–
Faint cries came from the air.
Gao Peng's expression didn't change, he turned to look at Growing Brain, and said in a louder voice, "True form!"
Two waterspouts shot out of the mountain creek and merged into the waterman before Gao Peng. Bang.
Water blasted.
When the mist cleared away,
A giant brain two meters in diameter appeared.
Gao Peng grabbed the dark purple tendon in his left hand and inserted it into the top of Growing Brain.
Growing Brain shivered.
A mushroom grew on the brain, the mushroom cap was another smaller brain, this scene looked particularly strange.
Gao Peng took two steps back with his hands behind his back, sighing with emotion. This little brain must be the ugliest among all his Familiars.
The skinned dark purple tendon quivered violently, blood ran out of it.
The blood dyed Growing Brain red.
After a few moments, a dense purple light enveloped it.
The purple light pillar shot into the sky, breaking up the white clouds overhead, creating ripples in the air.
The phenomenon here attracted the attention of many nearby monsters.
Ripples formed on the river surface. A giant dark grey fish head stuck out, its wide back was like an eyot.
Vicious growling came from the mountains behind them.
A moment later, a golden ape climbed onto a giant rock on the mountain and stealthily observed Gao Peng's crew.
Aside from these two big guys, countless pairs of spying eyes came from the forest, sky, and water.
"Master?" Desolion said in a low voice.
If his master commands, it can kill everything hiding within a ten-kilometer radius within three seconds!
Gao Peng didn't say anything as he leaned against a tree.
After a long while, Gao Peng said casually, "Silly, go take care of them."
"Puji?" a certain jellyfish lazing around with juice blanked, doubting what it heard.
Gao Peng sighed, you're a Quasi God now, can you act a little more like one?
"A couple days ago, I went to the mall and found there were 17 new flavors of juice…."
A soft tentacle pressed on Gao Peng's lips, a wise glow came from Silly's eyes.
Gao Yue Yue, say no more, I got it!
Report chapter
Silly hugged two tentacles to its body, mumbling to itself in a low voice.
Gao Peng raised his ears to hear what it was going on about.
"I'm a good kid, I never kill, it's all because evil Gao Yue Yue is forcing me so please don't blame me…."
And then–
A ring of clear ripples enclosed the surrounding space.
"Spatial Shift."
If the world were a painting, then what's happening in front of them is a sharp blade has cut two little circles in on this painting.
Then these two little circles of the exact same size will switch locations.
That's the application of a Quasi God Tier space ability.
Spatial transposition, swapping two completely opposite spaces.
On the river, only half of a turtle shell and tail floated on the water, blood dyed the center of the river red. On the opposite bank, a gold-furred ape missing two arms glanced at Silly across the river in horror, then turned and ran away.
Gao Peng fell into thought as he looked at the half giant turtle's corpse in the river.
"Not bad, Silly. You've done well, you killed the strongest monster," Gao Peng praised.
Silly: "…"
"It has nothing to do with me!" Silly said hurriedly.
Boom!
A blast of air swept across the ground.
All the surrounding trees were struck down by the blast, weeds pressed themselves against the ground.
After the light faded, a dark purple brain floated in mid-air.
The surface of the brain was covered in blue veins, glamorous yet wicked.
[Monster Name] Magical Brain
[Monster Tier] Level 89 (Saint Tier)
[Monster Grade] Legendary Grade/Legendary Grade
[Monster Attribute] Psychic
[Monster Ability] Psychic Power Lv 7 Extraordinary Brain Lv 7 Spirit Space Lv 6 Psychic Control Lv 6 Magical Power Lv 6
[Monster Condition] Healthy (Happy)
[Special Characteristic]
Hyperdimensional Chord (The ultimate limit of psychic ability is changing the world through psychic power. This creature with only a brain has more possibilities.
Effect 1. Active Effect: Thought Seizing: Its strong spirit allows it to seize the body of lifeless objects, thus obtaining the ability to move. Seizing speed increases.
Effect 2. Extraordinary Vitality: The nonliving thing it seizes will quickly mutate, giving birth to all sorts of extraordinary attributes.
Current seizes: Yangtze River East Sea, seizing progress 99.6%)
Extraordinary Transformation (The magical brain allows it to escape the constraints of the ordinary. Magical blood flows in its veins, giving it the ability to transform other life using its own special powers.
Effect 1. Active Effect: Magical Brain can use its own power to temporarily transform other beings, but the target must have a lower grade, and the target's strength cannot exceed Magical Brain by too much, otherwise the effect would be extremely unstable.
Effect 2. Passive Effect: The effect of the transformation done by Magical Brain will last for a certain period of time, but if Magical Brain continuously strengthens this effect, over time the transformations will be permanently fixed on the target.
Hint: Magical Brain's transformative effects include and are not limited to changing the subject's appearance, changing the subject's number and form of organs.)
[Monster Description] Magical Brain that lives in a hyperdimensional world. A strange life, they derive joy from transforming other living beings; they dislike when others go against their will.
Growing Brain evolved into Magical Brain.
Its Special Characteristics changed too.
This proves one of Gao Peng's theories, that Special Characteristics are ranked too. The current Hyperdimensional Chord is clearly much stronger than the previous Thought Chord.
The abilities of the characteristics are about the same, but Hyperdimensional Chord has a greater effect than Thought chord.
The nonliving thing that is seized by the brain mutates quickly now rather than slowly. And the seizing speed has increased.
This allows the brain's combat capacity increase more quickly.
Gao Peng was intrigued by the newly added Extraordinary Transformation ability.
Usually, monster characteristics add directly to the monster's fighting capacity, such as Flamy's Wings of Fire.
But there are also some unique Special Characteristics. These Special Characteristics don't directly add to a monster's combat capacity, but can have a big effect when used correctly. For example, when Desolion broke through Mythical Grade, it awakened Divine Sound.
Magical Brain's newly awakened Extraordinary Transformation is a unique characteristic that increases strength indirectly, rather than directly increasing combat capacity.
And it looks very interesting….
The subject of transformation be a lower grade, and cannot exceed it too much in strength. In other words, any monster that is Epic Grade or lower who are below Quasi God can be transformed by Magical Brain.
Magical Brain might be a mad scientist's favorite Familiar.
"Come back with me first, you can probably continue seizing East Sea from here right?" Gao Peng was entranced in thought as he looked at Magical Brain.
Magical Brain nodded, "I can, Master, though the seizing speed from here is slightly slower…. Huh, Master, I'm finding I seize even faster here than when I was in the East Sea."
"Your ability increased with your evolution," said Gao Peng.
The Yangtze River flowed into the East Sea. From a physical perspective, the two are actually connected, so Magical Brain can continue seizing the East Sea from the Yangtze River.
Returning to Yuzhou, Gao Peng went directly to a white building next to the river. There was a symbol on the wall, the outside was a blue ring, and the middle was an eye. This was the logo of the laboratory under Southern Sky Group.
The white building was constructed next to the Yangtze River, it had the aura of Growing Brain.
Almost all the prevailing water monsters in the Yangtze River are Growing Brain's godsons, so no water monster dares to invade this building that has Growing Brain's aura.
Aside from this building, there are other people who want to build things next to the river, but they all get destroyed by monsters in the water within a day. After a while, the banks of the Yangtze River became considered Southern Sky's private property.
"You're pretty great, did you bring all your godsons into the East Sea?" Gao Peng said to Magical Brain after he found out. It was hard to tell if it was a praise or a reprimand.
Magical Brain thought quickly. The blue veins on the brain turned on high speed, like a starting machine, glowing an eerie blue color.
I think master is praising me!
Magical Brain felt confident, "Dear master, my godsons aren't limited to the East Sea. I even have godsons in the Yellow Sea, Bo Sea, and Pacific Ocean.
Gao Peng was puzzled, "Why are you adopting so many godsons? You like hearing people call you dad?"
"Who wouldn't…?"
"What did you say?"
"Oh oh, it's because I saw they were pretty gifted so I cherish their talents."
"Alright…." Gao Peng reluctantly believed what it said.
Entering the lab building, Gao Peng took out his identity card and took over a lab room in the building.
This lab building is one of 36 research centers under the Southern Sky Group. It's responsible for developing new Water type monsters and testing the abilities of new Water type monster species.
Floors -1 to -5 in the lab building were all half-immersed in the Yangtze River.
"Young Master, I finally get to see you in living form!" A researcher wearing a pair of thick glasses and a white lab coat ran over to Gao Peng with a pile of files in his hands, as if seeing the object of his faith.
"Hello." Although what he said could be interpreted differently, Gao Peng didn't pay it any thought when he remembered most researchers are like this. Besides, this was his own employee.
"Look, Young Master, we finally bred this Water Banded Krait three months ago using the formula you left. This is a picture of the finished Water Banded Krait, but we found this Water Banded Krait is very timid. Unless it's receiving a lethal attack, otherwise it just runs away when it sees other monsters. We're working on nurturing its personality…."
Gao Peng took the photo. On the photo was a three-meter-long white based banded krait swimming in a lab tank.
"Yes, this is Water Banded Krait, you've done well breeding it. But personality is inherent, that's the task of a Monster Trainer, you've done a good job…." Gao Peng suddenly thought of Magical Brain's ability, and his voice got dim.
"Wait, bring me some Water Banded Kraits, I'm going to do an experiment."
Hearing the Young Master was going to personally do an experiment, the researcher's eyes filled with excitement behind his thick glasses.
To these researchers, Gao Peng was like a hack.
Of all the new Familiars that the 36 labs are researching or have successfully created, 9 out of 10 are related to the Young Master. They were all done with directions given by the Young Master, and all the researchers need to do is to continue researching on this path.
Sometimes he even wants to split the Young Master's brain open and see what's inside.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Are there flowers on my face?" Gao Peng said with a smile.
The researcher quickly removed his gaze from Gao Peng's forehead.
Five minutes later, the glass door opened. A glass tank came in on a white cart.
Three Water Banded Kraits floated in the tank. The three Water Banded Kraits each took up three corners of the tank, coiling into balls.
[Monster Name] Water Banded Krait
[Monster Grade] Normal Grade/Normal Grade
[Monster Level] Level 32
[Monster Attribute] Water/Poison
[Monster Condition] Healthy (Afraid)
[Monster Description] A venomous snake type monster that lives in the water. Because they have very small gallbladders, their personality is very timid. They like to eat alligator weed and fear monsters that are bigger than them.
It because of their eyes and gallbladder. A smaller gallbladder means a timid personality…?
"Magical Brain, test out your new ability. Make this little water snake's gallbladder bigger."
Magical Brain turned around, a purple light shrouded a Water Banded Krait .
Gao Peng couldn't tell a difference where he stood, so he merged with Magical Brain.
After merging, Gao Peng found he got Magical Brain's sight and senses.
It was a very strange sensation. Gao Peng saw many purple ripples enveloping the Water Banded Krait. The Water Banded Krait's muscles, bones, and organs all showed up in the brain clearly under the purple ripples.
Then Growing Brain operated on high speed, it was like a precise machine.
Under the stimulus of the purple ripples, the Water Banded Krait's gallbladder gradually expanded inside its body, like a balloon.
"Wait, the gallbladder's big enough!" Gao Peng's expression changed.
The purple ripples vanished.
The lower back section of the Water Banded Krait's body was swollen like a goose egg, as if it swallowed a rock that was stuck in its body.
"Hiss~"
Water Banded Krait 's previously bashful expression changed, it took on an extremely sharp glare!
This Water Banded Krait leapt out of the tank, coiling on the ground. Its teeth were bared, arrogant and rampant.
"Hiss hiss hiss~~~"
The Water Banded Krait swayed its head around. Its eyes were filled with violence, its mouth never closed, the four fangs had a cold glint.
"Squish." Gao Peng stepped down, the Water Banded Krait became a ball of ground meat.
"This one's a moron, let's try again."

Chapter 779: Qing Tian Dragon
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Hiss…" the remaining two Water Banded Kraits were even more terrified when they saw this, hiding in the corner of the tank.
One of the Water Banded Krait's pupils dilated, its tail twitched, and fell down straight.
It was scared senseless.
Gao Peng reached a hand into the tank and grabbed a water snake to put on the table.
"Try again, but don't make the gallbladder too big this time," said Gao Peng.
"Okay!"
After the first experience, the second time Magical Brain magnified the gallbladder, the gallbladder grew gradually in the Water Banded Krait's body. It wasn't as exaggerated as the first time, just five times its original size.
"Hiss?" The Water Banded Krait opened its eyes, slowly slithering towards Gao Peng. It flicked its tongue out at Gao Peng and rubbed its triangular head against Gao Peng's boots.
After seeing what happened to its friend, it knew what it should do.
This Water Banded Krait's condition also changed from the initial "Afraid" to "Curious."
"This ability is great," a grin crept onto Gao Peng's face. This Water Banded Krait was just a small attempt.
Gao Peng had many other ideas.
In the following days, Gao Peng remained in the lab. The other researchers didn't know what tests Gao Peng was performing, they just sent in monsters every now and then.
"Phew…finally a success."
Gao Peng wiped the sweat on his forehead.
The blue light on Magical Brain's surface veins faded away.
On the ground before them stood a strange-looking but familiar monster.
It was a shrimp monster that stood on its feet.
Its two hindlegs became thick and strong, its feet were like that of a duck. It even had webs between its toes.
A thick armor covered the surface of the hindlegs. The entire body was covered in a thick exoskeleton armor. The two front legs were like javelins and the upper arms were empty on the inside, the bottom parts had a spike segment that gave off a cold glint.
It only needed 0.1 second to shoot out its spike that can tear through a five-centimeter-thick piece of alloy steel board.
It had a breathing system that was suitable for amphibians. The strangest thing was that this monster that used to be a clown shrimp had an odd human face that looked like it was crying or laughing under Gao Peng's manipulation.
Gao Peng named this monster "Gentleshrimp."
Then Gao Peng saw that the clown shrimp's name in the stats frame he saw became "Gentleshrimp."
"This…." Gao Peng felt like he discovered something.
He turned around and tried to change Magical Brain's name, but this time the new name didn't appear in the stats frame.
Is it because I changed this monster's appearance by too much, to the point where it's a completely different species compared to previously, so I can name it?
Gao Peng's eyes beamed.
How interesting.
After their first success, Gao Peng and Magical Brain's monster creation speed got faster.
This time they only spent a day and a half to create the second monster.
In the middle of the lab room stood a monster that was 30 centimeters taller than Gentleshrimp, also standing up like a human. Its stomach and back were all covered in a thick, black armor. The top of its head had a black human face, you could barely see the outlines of the human face.
Three pairs of sharp claws grew out of its shoulders.
Above the three pairs of sharp claws were one pair of dark and strong paws. The paws were covered in dense thorns.
Gao Peng named this guy "Crab Butcher."
Gao Peng bred ten Gentleshrimps and ten Crab Butchers, five male and five female of each. It was easy to breed more from that.
This was Gao Peng's perverse humor. These two monsters were just for practice, he'll create more interesting monsters at Southern Heavenly Gate.
Yuzhou City, ever since the Cataclysm you could no longer tell its original outline.
This entire city is also one of the safest cities in the world.
With the combination of danger and safety, it's created a nearly mad sort of prosperity, extravagance, hedonism.
Monster battle arenas, demon clubs, breeding bases, monster research centers, monster amusement parks, spectre bars….
In the past two years, countless entertainment industries sprang up.
Just like where the sun shines, there are shadows, the spacious underground sewage became the residence of homeless people.
Some were there because of dire circumstances, some simply enjoyed the darkness and loneliness of this place.
"Wife, daughter…I miss you…." In a certain corner of the sewage, an alcoholic leaned against the cold wall and cried. His suit was crumpled into a ball and thrown to the side, the floor next to him had piles of empty bottles, his hair was a mess.
When the night falls silent, loneliness washes over him like waves.
They eat at his heart like countless maggots.
Under the influence of alcohol, the man's face was red, his gaze hazy.
The pressure of life, his longing for his wife and daughter, fear for the future, all these emotions rose in his heart.
Finally exploding like a bomb.
He released his Blood Contract, then took out the poison he prepared from his pocket and swallowed it with some alcohol.
A minute later, the man held his stomach and couldn't help retching in the passage. Alcohol, stomach acid, and blood water mixed together.
Three minutes later, the man's pupils dilated, his struggling grew weak.
In a daze, he seemed to see an infinite light at the end of the underground tunnel. In the light, a woman walked towards him with a little girl in her hand, it was the two people he's been dreaming of.
"Hehehe…." the man wanted to say something, but he couldn't make a sound. Using the last of his strength, he reached out his arm, his stiff and pale knuckles quivered.
Wait for me…wait for me, I'll be joining you soon….
The man finally took his last breath, the aura of life drew away from his body like waves.
The man lying on the ground was like a lump of burnt ashes.
"Sigh."
A man with a shaggy beard in a black jacket walked out of the corner of the underground tunnel. He's seen this situation many times before, but he was still a little emotional.
A white meatball with two little wings hovered next to him.
It's his Familiar, Dream Ball Beast. It can create environments using a person's inner emotions. The stronger the emotions, the more realistic the created environment. All the environments reflect what the person yearns for in their heart.
This type of Familiar is widely used in entertainment clubs.
"So people can die of loneliness," said a raspy voice in the underground tunnel.
The black jacket man paused his steps, the hair on his back stood up. A skeleton appeared out of nowhere next to the man's corpse. The skeleton faced to the side, crouching on the ground, its five fingers sweeping across the man's cheek.
Somehow the black jacket man saw death on this giant skeleton…. Yes! Death!
A terrifying black aura surrounded it, just one look made him feel like he saw his imminent death.
"I…I didn't kill him. I just saw that he killed himself so I did something good and showed him what he yearned for," the black jacket man said quickly.
Dumby didn't respond, just stood up to walk deeper into the tunnel.
"I know."
Dumby didn't have time to pay any mind to him, because the death he felt from the man who suicided made its Death Rule finally reach 1%.
A hundred kilometers outside Yuzhou City, mountain peak.
The night sky was dotted with stars, the moon hung high overhead.
A dark gold skeleton sat on the mountain peak with its legs crossed.
A dark red flame burned outside the skeleton. Dumby stripped the flame out of its body bit by bit.
After promoting to God, you become a body entirely of rules. Anything below a rule cannot exist inside the body.
The dark red flame was stripped from each bone on Dumby's body.
"Roar–" Suddenly the shadow of a black winged behemoth shot out from the dark flames.
Fire burned in Dumby's eye sockets. With a cold humph, a jet-black Godhood light of god flowed. A black thread flew out of Dumby's fingertip and sank into the behemoth before it.
The behemoth screamed and popped like a bubble.
"What's that?" Gao Peng asked on the mountain peak next to it.
Fatty Big Sea chuckled, "Just the tactic of a God. It wants to overtake the body and reincarnate, but it's not nearly good enough."
Seeing that Gao Peng still didn't understand, Fatty Big Sea explained in more detail, "If I'm not mistaken, this dark flame is the tactic of a God. It contains the will of that God. If this dark flame can gather 1% of a precept, it can have an additional Godhood when it promotes to God."
"You mentioned before that the easiest opportunity for Gods to gather Godhood is when they promote from Quasi God to God, right? So some Quasi Gods will try hard to collect the Power of Dark Flames, to the amount of a Godhood." Gao Peng said with thought.
"Yes, but they didn't realize we don't even care about this dark flame, we didn't even gather 1%."
Gao Peng rubbed his chin, "So you're saying luck grew out of adversity?"
"Luck grew out of laziness," Fatty Big Sea added in statement.
"I'm not lazy, you're the laziest okay," Gao Peng said and walked away.
Leaving behind Fatty Big Sea: "???"
Four Godhoods were taken by Dumby into its body, merging into its soul.
Dumby grunted, the four Godhood burned into the depths of its soul like searing iron.
The excruciating pain eroded its soul like waves.
Dumby's soul began to mutate in this moment.
"Brrrrrr–"
A massive Soul Power swept the entire world.
Even Yuzhou CIty, which was a hundred kilometers away, was more than half covered by this Soul Power.
All the Familiars on the street, in their homes, in their rooms, let out different levels of cries depending on their strength.
Far in the west, on Qing Tian Plateau, a giant dragon sleeping underground opened its eyes.
"A Familiar broke through God Tier. What a shocking gift, it's only been 20 years since the Cataclysm."
Qing Tian Plateau shook, a giant rift opened in the middle of the ground. The rift tore through nearly half of Qing Tian Plateau.
A blurry azure phantom rose into the sky from the depths of the earth, the night sky was dyed a dark green.
A moment later, two full white moons rose on the night sky, in the middle of the moons were a pitch black slit the shape of thunder.

"Gao Peng, there's a big boss looking at us." Fatty Big Sea nudged Gao Peng's shoulder with its head.
Gao Peng nodded slowly, "I saw."
How could he not see? Two moons rose on the western sky. The middle of the two moons had a vertical slit.
Gao Peng recognized them immediately as a pair of eyes.
Although these two eyes were smaller than the moon overhead, they were much larger than other stars.
These two eyes stared in the direction he was at. It didn't take any thought to know they were attracted by Dumby.
Gao Peng looked for a long while before the stats appeared.

[Effect 2. Passive Effect: In the azurified environment, Qing Tian Dragon's wood type rule increases in power. Reversal (Qing Tian Dragon can reverse the power of life. It can reverse its Growth Rule into Withering Rule and possess equal control over the rule.
[Effect 1. Active Effect: After activating the reversal effect, Qing Tian Dragon's Growth Rule will transform into Wither Rule after one day.
Hint: this ability has a cool downtime of one day.
Overgrowth (Growth Rule used by Qing Tian Dragon, can change the environment of a large region, transforming that region into a forest.
[Effect 1. Passive Effect: Overgrowth ignores the geography of the region. It can create different forests according to different geographies.
[Effect 2. Passive Effect: The transformed forest has a probability of growing a Wood Giant. The Wood Giant completely obeys Qing Tian Dragon's orders.
[Monster Description] Every God is unique. They have overcome the concept of Clan. This is a God that controls 45% of Life Rule. Thus it's very hard to kill. Its Woods Rule and Scorching Rule also give it great destructive ability.
Dumby cried, its soul collapsed inward like a black hole that appears when planets explode.
The black hole condensed continuously, massive amounts of Soul Power rushed into it.
Gao Peng finally understood why there's a requirement for Familiar's Soul Power.
If Soul Power is not up to standard, there's no way to form a Godhood. If Godhood doesn't successfully condense…and Soul Power is mostly depleted, the result is predictable.
But Dumby has little to worry about.
Dumby's attribute already has Soul. If a Mythical Tier Soul is still not up to par, then there must be no one who can break through God.
The Qing Tian Dragon in the distance didn't say anything. It quietly observed this place in the sky.
At least, for now, it didn't look like it was malicious.
Minutes and seconds passed.
Finally, reaching some limit.
Boom,
The vanity space where Dumby's skull was collapsed.
A pitch-black altar hovered above Dumby's chest, overlapping its body.
Four Godhoods poured onto the altar.
Lining up from top to bottom.
Each of the Godhoods were brilliant and dazzling.
Death Godhood, Soul Godhood, Spectre Godhood, White Skeleton Godhood.
"Four Godhoods and it has Death Godhood, Soul Godhood, and Spectre Godhood," Qing Tian Dragon exclaimed, its eyes gleaming as it looked at Dumby.
When Dumby withdrew the altar, a great aura released from its body.
Dumby floated in mid-air, the Ghoul Flame burning in its eyes…
Dumby's bones were enveloped in a golden light, golden bones penetrated through its body.
Behind Dumby, an enormous White Skeleton Demon God Apparition projected onto the world. Unlike the previous projection of the White Skeleton Demon God Apparition, this White Skeleton Demon God Apparition's hand had a long dark red scythe.
The apparition walked out from behind Dumby and merged into one with Dumby.
Dumby's body shook, the four Godhoods on the altar increased madly.
Precept content also rose continuously.
Each Godhood increased to thrice their original size, the precept content of the four Godhoods rose to 3%.
A violent wind blew. When the wind died down, a large green phantom appeared.
The phantom was extremely blurry.
Like a dense laser shower, also like a ball of abstract painting.
"You're all very good, I thought it would take at least 50 years to break through God, but you did it in less than 20 years." Qing Tian Dragon was overcome with emotions.
Gao Peng's expression remained calm. He's heard many of this sort of praise ever since he was a child.
He'd rather have something substantial.
Like, give him two Divine Artifacts or something.
"Looks like you're neither conceited nor rash, that's good." Qing Tian Dragon nodded approvingly.
"Back then, I was entrusted by your human race ancestors to protect your race for ages."
Gao Peng blinked, can't you give me anything substantial?
"Alright, we've seen each other, and I should get going."
Qing Tian Dragon finished and was about to leave.
Gao Peng's mouth twitched, it just came to say that?
"Do you have any advice?" Gao Peng asked tentatively.
"I'm just an antique. I have no advice. I can only tell you that times are changing, sometimes you shouldn't look at this world with an unchanging perspective," Qing Tian Dragon said meaningfully, then turned into a green rain and disappeared into the air.
"Master, there's another monster looking at us," said Dumby, looking in the southwest direction.
Gao Peng paused, "It? Probably not…then who?"
"Its gaze disappeared. It's also a God," Dumby said in a low voice.
Gao Peng scratched his head, why do so many Gods appear all of a sudden?
Gao Peng wouldn't think these Gods appeared out of nowhere. They must have existed for a very long time.
But in the past, they weren't on the same level.
Perhaps they've been watching this world change with a cold eye all this time.
"Let's return," Gao Peng said to Dumby, "You just broke through, you need some time to get accustomed to your abilities."
Chuanshu, Huan Mountain.
Half of the mountain peak collapsed, a giant rift was embedded in the middle of the mountain.
As if something heavy was forced into it savagely.
Cobweb-like cracks spread outwards.
In the middle of the cave, a gigantic golden buddha sat inside.
Its face was peaceful, gentle. It held flowers in its fingers.
The half-collapsed mountain was like a soft chair.
With Huan Mountain as the center, many small camps were gathered within dozens of kilometers radius.
Unwelcome guests arrived at Huan Mountain.
"It should be here." Gao Peng narrowed his eyes, he raised his left hand to his brows to block out the sunlight and looked at this big buddha.
The buddha statue was 100 meters tall. This body size wasn't huge for monsters.
But it was pretty tall.
More importantly, this was a God.

Overgrown weeds covered the big Buddha's feet. No one knows how long it's been since they were last cleared.
Some messy stones lay next to the feet. These stones blended into the environment with moss growing on them.
On his way here, Gao Peng saw many people praying to the Buddha, putting their faith in god.
But no one was interested in this true God.
This true God reclined in the mountains, content with itself. His eyes were closed, but you could see his joy.
"To see who was peeking that night. I didn't expect it to be a Buddha," said Gao Peng.
The Buddha let out a bell-like laugh.
"So many years have passed, and I can see a God Tier Monster Trainer again, what a rare sight."
"I want to invite you to be worshipped by our Huaxia Tribe," said Gao Peng.
"Your tone is as annoying as that guy back then," said the Buddha, "Let your Familiar fight against me. If you win, I'll accept it."
Gao Peng paused, this Buddha's stats appeared in his mind.
[Monster Name: Blissful Buddha
[Monster Tier: Elementary God
[Monster Grade: Mythical Grade/Mythical Grade
[Monster Attribute: Metal/Mystic
[Control of Rule: Strengthening Rule 9% Golden Light Rule 9%
[Special Characteristic: Buddha's Domain
[Effect 1. Active Effect: After activation, Blissful Buddha will form a circle of Buddha's Domain. The enemies enclosed by Buddha's Domain will face extreme suppression. Their executive abilities will be affected. Maintaining the existence of Buddha's Domain depletes energy.

Buddha's Enlightenment (Every part of Blissful Buddha's body can radiate Buddha's light.
Effect 1. Passive Effect: Buddha's light has a healing effect. It can heal injuries and remove negative conditions.
Effect 2. Passive Effect: Buddha's light is malleable. It can condense into different shapes.
Effect 3. Passive Effect: Buddha's light has lethality. Its lethality is multiplied when used on Soul type Monsters.
It's daytime now, which means he can transform into Blissful Dharmapala….
Gao Peng fell into thought.
He wants to defeat Dumby and traumatize him.
This Blissful Buddha's thoughts are impure.
But the only good thing is the two rules this Blissful Buddha controls don't look like high-tier rules.
The two rules add up to 18%, Dumby's four rules add up to 12% if you consider the ranking of the rules….
"Okay, we reject," said Gao Peng.
"Okay, then…." the Buddha, who was about to attack, froze.
Why aren't you going according to the script?
He realized what Gao Peng said.
"You…." Blissful Buddha opened his mouth.
"We're not ready yet, we'll come back and fight another time," Gao Peng said without emotion, "It was worth the trip just to see you."
Blissful Buddha: "???" Just because you praised me doesn't mean it's over!
Gao Peng yawned, leading Dumby away.
There's no way they're gonna fight, this Blissful Buddha's abilities are so strange, what if they screw up?
Gao Peng contemplated a lot, but they were only his own calculations. Gao Peng doesn't know how different these rules actually are.
Leaving Blissful Buddha sitting in place in silence.
He quietly watched Gao Peng leave.
Blissful Buddha wanted to stand up several times but restrained himself.
"I didn't expect this Blissful Buddha to be a God," Gao Peng exclaimed.
He recalled some legends he heard. In those legends, Blissful Buddha showed signs of godhood, for example, opening his eyes.
Returning to Yuzhou, a group of guests arrived at the laboratory.
White Dragon Tribe, Xuanhu Tribe, and Green God Tribe all sent people at the same time.
"Patriarch Bai, you're free today, you should've told me so I could make preparations," Gao Peng said with a smile as he waved.
"Yesterday, our tribes' Monster Trainers told us your Familiar…really became a God?" Bai Tongming stared at Gao Peng with glowing eyes, his voice somewhat shaky.
"Yes," Gao Peng nodded honestly.
Someone hit the table in excitement, making a clang.
A bunch of old men surrounded Gao Peng with beaming eyes.
Bai Tongming was very excited. He took several deep breaths to calm himself.
"Do you know what this means?" Bai Tongming's expression was complex.
"What does it mean?" Gao Peng was confused.
Bai Tongming: "…"
For some reason seeing this brat so calm made him want to punch him.
But he can't beat him….
"Ancestors above, we can finally…." an elder Gao Peng didn't know the name of but recognized grew tearful.
Gao Peng scratched his head, "Is it hard to become a God?"
Looking at these old men's complicated expressions, Gao Peng coughed in embarrassment.
"I know what you want to say. It's really just one reason– not enough resources." Bai Tongming sighed.
Squared World's resources aren't enough for us to develop. If all the resources are provided to us, we might be able to create two Gods, but Squared World has more than just one White Dragon Tribe," Bai Tongming admitted, this wasn't anything embarrassing.
"Everyone wants to become a God," Bai Tongming sighed again, "But there are only so few resources in Squared World, their regeneration can't keep up with the growth of youngsters, so we've all given up the thought of becoming Gods."
The other seniors all sighed regretfully.
"Gao Peng, it's very hard to break through just by absorbing Elemental Power from the air, like how you can't get full from eating air," Fatty Big Sea said to Gao Peng through the Contract, "We're only able to break through so quickly because of Dark Child."
"Can we look at the God?" asked an elder, his voice full of respect.
Gao Peng knew their respect wasn't for him, but for Dumby.
But it wasn't a big difference, because he was Dumby's Monster Trainer.
Gao Peng looked at them with thought and nodded, "Yes."
Long before they arrived, Gao Peng called Dumby back. Dumby's a God now, but it can still gain from watching the process of death.
Footsteps came from the tunnel. The elders turned their heads.
Dumby strode in wearing a black robe. Its skeletal body that glinted gold like glass peeked out from the gaps of the robe.
Its every action carried great authority.
"After so many years, our human race finally has our own God again!" A Green God Tribe elder burst into tears.

Gao Peng looked at the old man with worry, concerned he would faint from crying.
"Mister, calm down." Gao Peng quickly called someone to bring a box of Instant Cardiac Relief Pills.
The elders circled around Dumby, wanting to stroke it, but afraid to anger the skeleton creature. They were like a bunch of old kids who had seen a toy they liked.
Gao Peng was intrigued and didn't interrupt them.
On the side, he continued creating his own monsters.
Gentleshrimp and Crab Butcher from before had only been curious attempts. The monster that Gao Peng wanted to make this time was no ordinary monster.
A flesh-colored four-armed ape in the room growled.
Swaying around, its body couldn't even stand steadily. The muscles on its arms looked like they had countless little mice in them, expanding and shrinking continuously.
There was a massive boom!
Heavy footsteps startled the old patriarchs surrounding Dumby.
They turned around to see a monster they had never seen before walking out of the door.
"This monster…" Qing Yunnan was tongue-tied. This monster looked so much… like a human.
It stood at 16 feet tall, a layer of white armor growing out of its skin, and it had four arms.
The most impressive thing was its facial features—they were almost identical to those of a human.
If not for the fact that it had four arms, they almost would have thought this was some kind of human giant.
"Is this a new monster Southern Sky found? I've never seen it before."
"You can consider it a newly discovered monster." Gao Peng didn't go into detail.
"What's its name?" Qing Yunnan asked.
"Giant Spirit General," said Gao Peng.
As Gao Peng's voice faded, the name in the monster's stats table changed to Giant Spirit General.
[Monster Name: Giant Spirit General
[Monster Tier: Level 64 (Emperor-tier)
[Monster Grade: Excellent/Excellent
Before the Giant Spirit General was reformed, it had been a monster called the Four-Armed Monkey Demon. Through its transformation, Gao Peng added a white exoskeleton that looked like armor.
Because it was an exoskeleton, the armor could heal even after it was broken.
Although for Gao Peng, both the Four-Armed Monkey Demon and the Giant Spirit General were very weak monsters, for the current Huaxia Tribe, an Emperor-tier Giant Spirit General was still quite a high-tier monster.
Most of the strong monsters in Huaxia Tribe were only King-tier.
Every Emperor-tier monster trainer had a respectable reputation.
As it became later, the patriarchs and elders of the three tribes calmed down from their initial excitement.
After glancing at one another, Bai Tongming acted as a representative and said to Gao Peng, "Us old goats agreed when we came that if we confirmed the news to be real, it'd be the human race's fortune. From now on, our three big tribes will have your Huaxia Tribe as our leader."
Gao Peng was a little shocked. Only after confirming several times did he realize they weren't being humble; that was really what they thought.
"Why?" Gao Peng asked a very normal question.
These elders smiled at each other, but why?
Bai Tongming lowered his head, laughing while he shook it. "There really are geniuses in this world. Us old folks used to be the geniuses of our generation, but genius is relative. You have more genius than us, you can lead us further, and we're all humans. Is that enough reason?
"Rest assured, we might be old, but our words still have some weight. What we say represents our tribes!"
"For humans…" Gao Peng mumbled to himself.
"Exactly, for humans!" Bai Tongming was laughing at first, but his voice grew raspy. "For something so vague and insubstantial, so many of us… have died. We can't die for nothing. One day we'll have our revenge!"
Gao Peng hadn't grown up in a tribe, so he couldn't understand this sort of thinking.
But if the three big tribes were willing to yield, Gao Peng accepted after some thought.
Gao Peng told them to return first and notify the other people in their tribes, as well as the other tribes.
He'd accept anyone who was willing to be led by the Huaxia Tribe. If anyone was unwilling, Gao Peng wouldn't force them, either, including the three top tribes. Even if they went back on their word, that was okay. They could come if they wanted. He gave them three days. and they could back out within these three days, but if they continued to be undecided after that…
Gao Peng made it very clear that he definitely wouldn't be courteous just because of these elders.
On the way back, the patriarch of the Xuanhu Tribe, You Shu, said with a frown, "What did that last sentence mean?"
"Exactly what he said." Bai Tongming summoned his familiar, a White Dragon, and mounted its back.
After the previous night's experiment, Gao Peng wiped his hands and left the lab, letting the Giant Spirit General follow him.
Gao Peng summoned all his familiars to move around freely.
The Magical Brain floated in mid-air, its conscience connecting with other familiars, inviting them to play at the East Sea.
"Wah, that's amazing! You have such a big fish pond?" Goldie exclaimed.
"I'll make them call you 'uncle,'" said the Magical Brain.
Goldie's face fell, its right hand grabbing the Magical Brain. "Ayyye, how could I accept?"
"Your fish pond…"
"The East Sea."
"Oh right, right, right, your sea pond…" Goldie was deep in thought. "It must have a lot of fish?" Its duck feet tapped rhythmically on the floor.
"Of course there's a lot of fish in the sea."
"Oh—" Goldie scratched its butt, then put its hand up to its nose to sniff the familiar scent.
Goldie's eyes narrowed into slits as it said in an intoxicating tone, "Little buddy, I have a big deal. Come over here with me and I'll tell you in detail."
"Wait." A voice came from the air before them.
The Magical Brain's psychic power scanned the space, but there was nothing.
However, the voice had definitely come from this place…
Goldie said impatiently, "Go, go, go. Go away. Don't ruin my deal." Goldie dug out a dollar from its butt and threw it on the ground. "Go buy a lollipop."
Cold hostility spread through the air, an invisible blade seeming to cut into Goldie's chest.
Goldie frowned, dense blue runes surfacing from beneath its skin. Its aggressive presence swept through the room. "You want to fight with me? Can you beat me?"
"We'll only know if we try. I know your passive effect is very strong, but are you sure you'll have the chance to multiply your passive skill before me?" said Flowing Light's deep voice.
"Yes, right here," thought the Magical Brain.
It looked at the empty space before it.
Its psychic power scanned again and again, but there was nothing there.
What kind of concealment technique was this? If it was the brain's enemy, wouldn't that mean it couldn't find the brain even if it was standing right in front of it?
The Magical Brain had very complicated feelings.
Sensing Goldie's terrifying presence and the hostility around it, it thought it had made a lot of progress and could rank among the top of Gao Peng's familiars, but it seemed like the Magical Brain could only rank in the middle.
"Master is still here. Be quiet," Dumby rasped.
Goldie and Flowing Light were at a stalemate for another three seconds, then revoked their presence with a humph.
"Nevermind. I won't argue with a kid." Goldie put its hands behind its back and walked away while wagging its head. "When you're done, I'll talk to you about a 15-million-dollar deal."
Space distorted, and Flowing Light's silhouette appeared in the Magical Brain's sight.
"Are you looking for me?" The Magical Brain communicated with Flowing Light through spiritual waves, projecting its thoughts directly into Flowing Light's mind.
Flowing Light nodded. "I heard them say you have the ability to change monsters' appearances?"
When Flowing Light said this, the Magical Brain noticed its eyes were beaming. "Yes."
"Bro, your ability is great, it's very much… sticking to the rules!" Flowing Light's blades clapped together.
"Sticking… to the rules?"
"Yes. Just like water flows to lower places and people have to eat when they're hungry. Water flows to lower places. Your ability to change appearances is sticking to the rules, excellent!" Flowing Light said with a serious face.

It was the first time the Magical Brain was praised by another.
It was incredibly flattered.
It felt like it had a sacred mission to uphold. It hadn't expected to have such a strong ability!
Flowing Light nodded with satisfaction.
"What's the extent of your ability now?" Flowing Light asked quietly.
The Magical Brain pondered for a moment. "I can change the appearance and shape of a monster, and basically, one won't be able to see its previous appearance."
"That's so powerful." Flowing Light's eyes brightened.
"It's all right," Magical brain became more modest.
"Then… Half an inch."
"What?"
"Just increase my height by half an inch." Flowing Light smiled.
The Magical Brain had a sudden awakening, all its doubts clearing in a moment. No wonder…
"No problem!"
Purple ripples covered Flowing Light.
The ripples thickened gradually, causing Flowing Light to close its eyes. It felt like it was such an important moment that it required a ceremonial feeling.
It was very happy and eagerly looking forward to the moment when it could open its eyes.
That moment would be the most surprising.
It was so nice to think about it.
"Flowing Light!" Goldie's rude voice rang out.
Flowing Light furrowed its eyebrows. "What?"
"Good luck." Goldie grinned, scratched its butt, and watched happily.
Time went by in seconds, then minutes.
"Is it done?" Flowing Light asked.
No one answered it.
Floating Light's heart skipped while it had sudden doubts.
About ten minutes later, it asked, "How much longer?"
"I don't know, and I'm not sure why my ability to transform doesn't work for you." The tired voice of the Magical Brain rang out.
Flowing Light opened its eyes.
"You're toying with me," it thought.
"Heh heh." Goldie smiled smugly. "Okay, little brother, now it's my turn."
With a buzzing sound, a knife flashed and stopped at Goldie's neck.
After two seconds of silence, Flowing Light withdrew its knife arm, turned, and walked away lonesomely.
"I know why!" Goldie said.
Flowing Light stopped moving and tilted its head.
"Why?"
"The reason is simple."
Goldie continued, "It's because you're stronger than the Magical Brain!"
Flowing Light was stunned—what kind of crazy reason was this?!
"The ability of the Magical Brain can only be used on beings that are weaker than it, isn't that right?"
"I don't know…" said the Magical Brain bitterly.
It had just evolved, so these abilities were still being explored.
It had only recently received the ability to transform other monsters, so it was only now exploring through trial and error.
"That should be it, or if you can use it without limitations, wouldn't you be able to transform even gods at will?" Goldie shrugged. "How can there be such an ability without limitations?"
Flowing Light was silent for a moment.
Nodding, its eyes were filled with warmth.
That something was also called hope.
The Magical Brain had a vague sense of foreboding.
"You say when you're done. I'll do it!" Flowing Light said seriously.
Goldie gave a smile that was filled with meaning.
It looped his arms around the Magical Brain and walked to a corner, Goldie looking serious. "Can I ask you something?"
"What…?"
"I'm seriously telling you that this is really a 10 billion investment, even more than 10 billion, 100 billion, a trillion!"
The Magical Brain was speechless. What was the use of that much money?
"Those fishes that you got from the East China Sea, I'll help you sell them. There's a big market." Goldie smiled indecently.
"Each fish will be a hundred dollars!" Goldie held up a finger. "A red carp, and no more, or I'll lose money."
The Magical Brain slowly questioned, "How do I deliver at such long distances? Even if I did, they would rot."
"We can freeze them!" Goldie said quickly.
"Then… let's try it?" The Magical Brain was okay with the idea. How many fishes could there be in the entire East China Sea?
It didn't know, because there were too many, and it was too lazy to count.
A fish cost 100 dollars, and 10 billion was only 100 million fishes.
That would have little impact on the entire East China Sea.
It would just treat it as though it was having some fun with Goldie.
The Magical Brain thought of it this way.
After Goldie received by the Magical Brain's agreement, it ran to Gao Peng to take his investment.
The Magical Brain looked at Floating Light, who was walking over, and smiled wearily.
"Follow me." Floating Light leaped onto the Magical Brain's back.
"Where to?"
"To make you stronger!"
"What? Wait… "
After sending away the investment-seeking Goldie, Gao Peng rubbed his eyebrows. He had just invested in a company created by Goldie and the Magical Brain.
The company's business involved various aspects of the seafood industries, such as monster trading, selling materials, premium canned fish, producing meat, and so on.
Gao Peng's capital and technology gave him 80 percent equity; the Magical Brain provided raw materials and had ten percent; Goldie's private equity accounted for the remaining ten percent.
The reason why Gao Peng held such a large proportion of the shares was that he had to deal with the market necessities, including all the factory work, manpower, and logistics.
After Gao Peng's detailed explanation, Goldie finally understood that the fishes in the East China Sea would probably not be appreciated by the public. Without marketing and capital packaging, the public wouldn't be aware of the products.
So Goldie was very appreciative of Gao Peng's hard work. Before it left, it was very concerned and kept asking Gao Peng whether he would like to share its ten percent of the shares to support him through the difficult times.
"Young Master, there's a group of people from the Black Fog World here. They're here for you." Gao Peng received a message through the group's internal information channel.
Gao Peng frowned.
He thought for a moment about taking Fatty Big Sea, Dumby, and Silly back to the Black Fog World.
Just as he stepped out of the Spatial Rift, Gao Peng was dyed green.
Over their heads, in the sky, a green sun hung high.
Within the sun's outline, a three-legged bird floated.
The sky was covered with terrifying aura, torrents of hurricanes surrounded the outer ring of green sun as if to blow out the entire Black Fog World.

A god-level Eternal Evergreen Bird was flying in the sky gathering sun storms. This should be intended to inflict some fear in me.
Gao Peng sneered quietly. When he needed to fight, he would never go soft.
Otherwise, it would be regarded as being bulliable.
The difference between the eternal quality and the mythical quality did not lie in the characteristics of monsters. Both the mythical quality and the eternal quality of monsters all only have three monster characteristics.
The difference between the eternal quality and mythological quality lay in other areas.
Dumby understood and stepped out in a single step. When Dumby appeared once more, he was already in the sky.
With a clap of the right hand, countless dense thorns of bone burst out of the vanity space.
It was like a ball of giant sea urchin exploding in the middle.
The stab of bones broken apart and burst out.
Boom!!!
The white ball of bones ball bloomed open, and the broken white bone fragments slashed open the layer of cloud, leaving a red cloud of air.
At the center of the fragmented bone ball, a strong blue light grew.
The blue storm with high speed filled the sky.
The wind was howling.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird let out a sharp cry.
Flapping its wings, and the sky seemed to be collapsing.
A dense storm emerged from the starry sky.
Like a Blue Aurora slowly falling.
The Hurrican Rule– Corroded Bones Storm River!
The sky was dyed blue, and the thick Blue Aurora acted like a heavenly gate that locked down the city.
Everyone in the city was terrified, some people hid at home, and others wanted to escape from the city.
For a moment, the city was in a state of chaos.
"Keep quiet and stay at home!" The security department managed to give its orders in time. "Don't head outside. All are to stay at home."
The guards held up their flags and waved them. The trumpets were blaring in the street.
People who wanted to take their chance during the chaos to break the law were arrested and detained by the security department.
Calm was restored after a brief disturbance…
It was merciless. Gao Peng narrowed his eyes.
Dumby's arms were outstretched, his black robes lifted with the wind, and a huge Bone Claw made of translucent gelatine shot out.
The huge Bone Claw penetrates the rule of hurricane and fell onto the eternal evergreen bird.
"The Soul Precept!?" Eternal Evergreen Bird's demeanour changed slightly, it had unexpectedly met with a difficult soul rule.
The Soul Precept directly attacked the soul. Many defences would be useless when facing the Soul Precept.
How would the Eternal Evergreen Bird dare to maintain its move? Its wings flapped backwards to avoid the soul claw. The storm in the sky also lost it's master's control and dissipated.
Although the Eternal Evergreen Bird moved backwards, its momentum became even more vicious.
The blue sun, like a fireball that surrounded it, was so blur that one can't see it clearly.
Dumby continued to press forward, his right hand raised, and a spot of terrifying darkness appeared in his palm.
The black dot rotated in its straight line, and a strong dead air emanated from it.
The Death Rule – the look of death.
The Death Rule disappeared instantly from Dumby's fingertips.
The next moment it landed on the chest of the Eternal Evergreen Bird.
"Argh!" there was a cry of horror.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird was glittering, no wonder it was called the God of the Wind. In the blink of an eye, it flew more than 500,000 kilometers and disappeared at the end of the sky.
A blurred figure reappeared from the vanity space. The Eternal Evergreen Bird's originally blue cheek had become bluer. It looked down at its chest.
The fur in the area that it was hit by Dumby had turned white and gray,
The Eternal Evergreen Bird's face changed slightly; in their family, only dead old Eternal Evergreen Birds' fur has this color.
It was truly the Death Rule!
The Eternal Evergreen Bird initially had some doubts. It was worried if he had been cheated into thinking it was real. Now it can be absolutely sure that that was the Death Rule.
Because some of the precepts that God controls are the laws of deception or uses magic. They were very realistic in mimicking other laws and sometimes result in a joke.
So those gods were deeply hated by other gods, and they are called the shame of gods.
Since this was truly the Death Rule… there would be a problem. If one couldn't kill this guy, he would escape…
After weighing the advantages and disadvantages, Eternal Evergreen Bird finally decided to use the second plan.
Gao Peng took Dumby to the Sky City. When the Eternal Evergreen Bird released its momentum, it had scared the Continent Emperor Turtle away. It was now several tens of kilometers away and only stopped after hearing Gao Peng voice.
"Master, that fellow is back," Dumby stepped forward to cover Gao Peng.
"I want the Voucher of Wind that is in your hands." Eternal Evergreen Bird spoke in human language.
"Oh?" Gao Peng was not surprised. Seeing this guy's profile, it was said that he has embarked on the Wind Type Path of Usurpation. Therefore he probably knew what its objective in coming was.
"What can you exchange it for," Gao Peng looked at this large green bird with interest.
Eternal Evergreen Bird was not releasing any wind type rule at this point of time and had revealed its actual form.
Even in Gaopeng's eyes, he had praises for the Eternal Evergreen Bird's handsome look.
The body was well proportioned, the physique was slender, the green feathers were carved out like glass, the dark green eyes were crystal clear, the arc was elegant, the three feet folded inward, and the beautiful top feathers flowed backwards.
Surrounded by whirlwinds, its every move perfectly syncronises with the wind.
If Goldie was here, he would definitely say, "it's a pity that such a beautiful hair can't be ironed out straight."
"As long as it's the treasure I can present out, I would." The Eternal Evergreen Bird said in a low voice.
"Well, I have two Vouchers of wind in my hand, one of which has been integrated once and is equivalent to three wind vouchers. This way, you can exchange a divine artifact with me, it doesn't matter how low the rule content is. "
The Eternal Evergreen Bird 's eyes widened, "I don't have an extra divine artifact, I only have my original artifact."
"And the three Vouchers of Wind is not worth an artifact." Eternal Evergreen Bird shook his head.
"Really not?"
"No." The Eternal Evergreen Bird said with certainty.
"Well, then you can exchange with me, three vouchers of fire," Gao Peng's changed the subject.
"I don't have that either. I'm a wind type. I have no use for a fire item," The Eternal Evergreen Bird shook its head.
"How is that useless, you can use them to exchange it with me." Gao Peng said with a sly smile.
Eternal Evergreen Bird, "…"
Where can I get the vouchers of fire for you?
And if it was so easy to get! Wouldn't I be able to get three vouchers of wind already, I don't even have one.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird argued. The Path of Usurpation was a rule of the world since it is a rule, then there must be regulations.
One of the regulations was that the competition among the qualifiers must be fought at the same level, and even if the qualifiers at different levels killed each other, they can't take the other's voucher.
That is to say, if Eternal Evergreen Bird wanted to obtain the voucher of fire to trade with Gaopeng, he must compete those at the god level.
Those who can get qualify for the Path of Usurpation were all the best within the attribute.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird looked at Gao Peng dejectedly, "you are making this difficult for me. If I want to take the voucher of fire, I have to kill a god. And it would be more than one God. Please switch to another condition."
Gao Peng sighed, "This wouldn't work, that wouldn't work. Who's the one making the request now? You are making this hard for me, my friend. "
"Tell you what, I won't make it difficult for you," Gao Peng lifted his eyebrows, "two conditions, of course, you can also understand these two conditions to be as one."
"Well, I'm going to set up an intelligence organization. If you join me, don't object so quickly. This intelligence organization would collect all kinds of information, including information about divine artifacts, war among Gods, and all monsters competing in the Path of Usurpation. "
The Eternal Evergreen Bird tilted its head and pondered.
Gao Peng added the last bit, "and sometimes our organization can help with humanitarian work."
The Eternal Evergreen Bird didn't speak, it was thinking about the pros and cons.
"If you join in, you will be the first group of elders. The first group of elders have preferential policies and can enjoy 100 years of information free of charge! All the information within one hundred years will be released to you free of charge. "
"What do I need to pay?" asked the Eternal Evergreen Bird.
"Just some trivial information and you will be paid to help when the need arises."
The Eternal Evergreen Bird thought this was slightly odd, but whichever way he looked at it, the conditions from this human seemed to be beneficial to it.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird was tempted.
Gao Peng took advantage and added on, "If you agree, I can give you the three vouchers of wind now."
The Eternal Evergreen Bird looked deeply at Gao Peng. "Are you not afraid that I will take it and leave?"
"I trust you," Gao Peng said firmly, looking straight into its eyes.
At the same time, Gao Peng silently thought in his heart that if you dare to take it and run, I will make sure you die!

The Eternal Evergreen Bird eventually agreed to Gao Peng's invitation.
After all, it was very interested in the voucher that Gao Peng was holding.
What was more, it seemed that there was still some truth in what this human said.
After taking the three Vouchers of Wind from Gao Peng's hand, the Eternal Evergreen Bird noticed that the eyes of the human being and his familiars shifted toward itself.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird squinted, using its beak to take the voucher of wind from Gao Peng's hand, its eyes alert.
"Aren't you worried about me running off?" it thought.
Although it didn't speak, the meaning of these looks became obvious to the Eternal Evergreen Bird—why don't you try?
Gao Peng didn't react, just narrowed his eyes and smiled.
After swallowing the Voucher of Wind, a proud voice said, "Don't worry, I'll honor my word.
"Bring me a slate of stone, and I'll write everything you want to know."
Gao Peng called out Silly and took out a portable laptop from the space.
"You mean to make me write on this piece of metal?"
"No, speak," Gao Peng said calmly.
"What do you want to know?"
"Everything you know about the Path of Usurpation and the various attributes of our competitors, the more detailed the better."
The Eternal Evergreen Bird began narrating.
Twenty minutes later, the Eternal Evergreen Bird had told everything it knew about the Path of Usurpation.
In fact, there wasn't much information, as only a few could enter the Path of Usurpation.
Besides, the Eternal Evergreen Bird didn't pay much attention to these things. Aside from paying attention and gathering detailed information on its wind competitors, monsters of other attributes didn't compete with it, so it wasn't particularly concerned.
"What are you doing?" The Eternal Evergreen Bird pretended to approach Gao Peng carelessly, stretching its neck and peeking at him secretly.
Gao Peng noticed the Eternal Evergreen Bird's discreet actions and turned his body to block the view of the laptop screen.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird was itching to see what was on the screen.
"I want to see it, but I can't put down my pride," it thought. "How can I ask a human to show me something?!"
"Aren't you done? Why aren't you leaving?" Gao Peng looked up at the Eternal Evergreen Bird. Its clear eyes were filled with confusion.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird fell silent for two seconds.
"Actually, I suddenly remembered more information. I may not have finished," The Eternal Evergreen Bird looked up to the sky and felt its face is heating up.
"Oh, well, go ahead."
The Eternal Evergreen Bird scowled and wondered, "I've finished sharing. What do you want me to make up now?! How could this human being act so hateful? He won't give me any chance to step down gracefully!"
Gao Peng suddenly clapped his forehead and said with a meaningful smile, "I see. Let me introduce this to you. It's a special product of our Huaxia Tribe."
Gao Peng placed the laptop in front of the Eternal Evergreen Bird. It was a small portable one, slightly too small for Gao Peng to use, let alone the Eternal Evergreen Bird.
Of course, the Eternal Evergreen Bird had very good vision. Even if the laptop was the size of a matchbox, it wouldn't affect its view.
Most bird monsters had excellent eyesight when they grew up and attained a high level.
Gao Peng introduced the various uses of the laptop in detail, including music, video, documents, games, and other functions.
Gao Peng then sent the recorded files to Grandpa's penguin account, closed his laptop, and placed it into Silly's space.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird scratched its ears and rubbed its cheeks, anxiously hopping around.
The two hurricanes that came from its nostrils blew into the distance and become tornadoes that gradually disappeared on the horizon.
When Gao Peng turned around to leave, the Eternal Evergreen Bird lowered its head, pecked at a feather, and placed it on the ground.
"Wait—"
"What's the matter?" asked Gao Peng.
"This feather is for you. If you need me, you can contact me through this feather," said the Eternal Evergreen Bird dryly.
"Thank you very much." Gao Peng rubbed his hands together gratefully and then turned to leave.
"Wait—"
"Well, is there anything else?"
"Can I have a look at that thing called a laptop?" The Eternal Evergreen Bird had given up its pride, and one could only imagine how full of pride it usually was. Since when was it ever so humble? If this human wanted to tease it, it would—
"Okay, but this laptop was customized for me. It would be very inconvenient for you to use. You might destroy it with a bit of strength. If you trust me, I can have someone make a special computer for you," Gao Peng said with a smile.
Had there ever been such good news?
The Eternal Evergreen Bird's heart leapt with joy.
"You're not that annoying." The Eternal Evergreen Bird suddenly thought Gao Peng looked very pleasant indeed.
The bird stayed behind. It had no fixed residence and had always been wandering around. It was one of the wandering wild Gods.
Sometimes when it saw the beautiful scenery on a certain mountain, it would occupy the top of the mountain and eat its original owner, then stand on the top of the mountain to enjoy the view.
When it became tired of the scenery, it would fly away to find its next destination and go through the same cycle again.
And because of the Eternal Evergreen Bird's strength, few monsters could beat it.
Hence, the Eternal Evergreen Bird didn't have a very good reputation.
The order to customize a computer for the Eternal Evergreen Bird was sent through by Gao Peng. In the afternoon, experts and key technical workers in the group discussed and drew designs.
Finally, it was decided to make a 40-by-50-foot screen.
Taking maintenance and replacement into consideration, it was finally decided for a projector and projection screen to be used in place of a computer screen.
A week later, the Eternal Evergreen Bird's customized computer was finished, and a computer room had been specially built for it.
That night, the Eternal Evergreen Bird entered the room.
And it never came out again.
The area where the Eternal Evergreen Bird lived was isolated, and food was regularly delivered to it.
Standing outside the palace-like house, Gao Peng wore a strange look. He somehow felt like he had trapped an Evergreen Bird and was now keeping it in this palace.
As for how long the palace could "trap" it, Gao Peng was still relatively confident.
There were plenty of TV channels, novels, and games.
Ranging from the simple to the difficult, it wasn't a problem to occupy the God for a minimum of a few decades.
As for the decades to come… It didn't matter whether it wanted to stay or not.
In the future, if there was an enemy invasion, the network or power supply would be disconnected, and it would be told that the enemy had stepped on its network cable.
Gao Peng rubbed his chin and suddenly felt guilt wearing on his conscience.
A few weeks passed.
In Jiutian Shidi, right outside the Fire God Valley, a figure appeared on the horizon.
There was a large mountain made of red sandstone with raging fire on top of it.
From the fire, a Bi Fang bird flew out. "Who are you? What are you doing here at the Fire God Valley?"
The King of Robotics' rigid face revealed no emotion. "Little doll, I want to see the adults at home. I have a message for them." The King of Robotics emitted a godly aura.
The half-sized Bi Fang hovered above its head and said proudly, "I'm not a baby."
The aura of the King of Robotics caught the attention of an old Bi Fang in the valley. The older bird remembered that the King of Robotics was with Gao Peng.
Soon, the King of Robotics was invited in.
After seeing old Bi Fang, the King of Robotics merely said a single sentence: "A sea-facing position, the Quasi God level, the Voucher of Fire."

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The old Bi Fang nodded slowly, nothing unusual on its face.
"Just a moment."
The old Bi Fang went back to the deep depths of the Fire God Valley.
In a moment, the sky was lit up in red, and many green birds were circling and dancing in the sky.
Each green one-legged bird had a powerful aura.
At a glance, it could be estimated that there were a hundred of them.
Every one of them was peak Quasi God-level, and there were even more terrifying existences within the pack.
The King of Robotics could only sense the deep fundamentals of these animals.
Every Mystical Familiar Clan was a terrifying war machine. Except for a small number of clans, most of the core members of the Mystical Familiar Clan were extremely horrifying.
On the surface, the mutated races seemed to be doing very well, but in fact, they occupied less than a third of the Empyrean. More than two-thirds of the areas were controlled by monsters, mythical beasts, and various Gods.
These were the fundamentals of the Mystical Familiar Clan. The lifespan of the Mystical Familiar Clan was extremely long. If they broke through to a higher level, their lifespan would continue to grow.
From generation to generation, countless years of accumulation had created their fundamentals.
The old Bi Fang flew in front, its wings flapping, and the flames started a prairie fire. At the end of its wings, a wispy flame transformed into a red ribbon behind it.
"Caw!
"Caw!"
The shrill cry echoed between heaven and earth.
The King of Robotics raised its head and said calmly, "You'll expose them if you follow me like this."
Among the countless squares in the sky, one perfect circle was particularly striking, like a ball flying in the sky among the many birds. The King of Robotics recognized it at a glance.
Flamy nodded quickly. "Yes! Old Master, let's not make such a dramatic entrance or we'll expose Gao Yueyue."
The old Bi Fang's face stiffened. It was rare for the Bi Fang family to leave the valley. They were ready to leave their prestige to the old guys of Phoenix and Rosefinch Clans.
But…
During this time, the old Bi Fang had truly fallen in love with the lovely Flamy, since it reminded the older bird of its daughter who had died on the battlefield.
The old Bi Fang sighed. "All right, all right."
It turned his head and let out a long cry. Those in the sky who heard the voice of the old Bi Fang gradually held their aura in. Nonetheless, hundreds of powerful Bi Fang flying together still formed a striking image.
The sky was dyed a fiery red, and the fire elements in the air were accompanied by exhilarated cheering.
If the hundreds of Bi Fang lived in an area for a long time, they could even turn a mountain into a Flaming Mountain.
Waves of heat burned, and the air was contorted.
There was an odd flash of color in the King of Robotics' eyes. If this old Bi Fang could directly command so many Bi Fang, it had to have a high position in the Bi Fang family.
"That's how you tone down your presence?" The old Bi Fang's face sank. "That's how you usually practice?"
On the top of the mountain, Goldie stood behind Gao Peng, kicking the stones at its feet from time to time.
"Gao Peng, Floating Light took the Magical Brain away."
"How did they decide to hang out?"
"Floating Light wanted the Magical Brain to make it taller." Goldie smiled sheepishly.
"It can't be changed." Gao Peng thought about the limitation of Magical Brain's ability. First of all, its strength couldn't exceed its patient's strength by too much, and second, its grade had to be lower than it. That was to say, the Magical Brain had to reach the Eternal grade, and Floating Light's grade had to stay at the Mythical grade without continuing to improve.
Gao Peng thought it was still slightly difficult.
"Floating Light took Magical Brain to run around looking for psychic monsters, killing them and retrieving their crystal cores for Magical Brain to swallow. I don't know how far they've gone."
"Really?" Gao Peng looked back with a strange face.
"How can that be fake?!" Goldie noisily stuffed its mouth and swallowed the tobacco into its stomach. "By the way, Gao Peng, you know my three godsons?"
"The three ducks raised in the World Vortex Battlefield?" asked Gao Peng.
"I'm no longer the Goldie I used to be. I'm boss Goldie." Goldie lifted its neck. "How can I, a big boss, be dealing with trivial matters? I've left that to my three adopted sons, also known as the famous dragon, tiger, and leopard brothers."
"Dragon, tiger, and leopard?" Gao Peng wondered. "Aren't they all ducks? What do they have to do with dragons, tigers, and leopards?"
"It's for the prestige! Dragon Duck, Tiger Duck, and Leopard Duck." Goldie excitedly said that it had hired someone to give it these names after thinking of names for a long time.
The three ducks were named after a dragon, tiger, and leopard. Gao Peng thought it was absurdly humourous.
He laughed; it was indeed Goldie's style of naming.
Seeing that he was still the old Goldie, Gao Peng was relieved.
"Hum, Gao Peng, don't look down on my three sons. They're all in the top 20 in the Sky Ranking."
Sky Ranking…
Gao Peng choked and wanted to spit.
"What list?" Gao Peng rubbed his eyebrows.
"The Sky Ranking!" Goldie looked up and lifted its chest as proud as an elderly father.
"What is meant to be, has arrived…" Gao Peng's mouth twitched.
"I've never heard of this Sky Ranking before." Gao Peng put down the fingers rubbing his temples wearily.
"The Sky Ranking was made by your cousin. It was her list."
"That little fat girl?" Gao Peng was surprised by Goldie's ability.
"Well, yes." Goldie nodded repeatedly.
With that, Goldie mysteriously came up and whispered, "I heard someone talking about this Sky Ranking when I was shopping the other day. Someone called her 'the mother of the Sky Ranking' behind her back."
There was a boom!
Gao Peng's image of Gao Leng had suddenly disintegrated.
"Haha haha haha haha," he laughed in his head. "What a name, mother of the Sky Ranking."
The person who had made this name had to be an odd genius.
"By the way… They should be coming." Gao Peng rubbed his stiff face and remembered his original purpose.
Goldie scratched its butt. "Gao Peng, who are you waiting for?"
"A bird you'll want to see," Gao Peng said lightly.
"I don't have any birds that I want to see. I don't want to see anyone. I'm very happy right now." Goldie, with a smile, took out a pair of giant toad-like sunglasses from its pocket and placed them on its face. Then it took out special tobacco that was used exclusively by Dumby and put it into its mouth.
Since starting the company that it held shares in, it had seen a steady stream of daily income.
Goldie felt that it had reached the peak of its life, and it was very happy.
"Are you happy now?" a half-amused voice quipped in the sky.
Goldie was shocked.
What a familiar voice!
The duck looked up, and a familiar figure came down from the sky.
"I'll crush you!"
With a bang, the mountain top shook violently with smoke.
Goldie was covered in the smoke.
"Cough…" intermittent coughs sounded from the smoke.
Then a pillar of fire rose into the sky.
Gao Peng shook his head and walked away silently.

Goldie, with a swollen face, limped ahead, there were peck marks all over his body.
Five meters behind it, a large Bi Fang, who due to its large size had its eyes squeezed into a triangle, followed Goldie.
"What else haven't you told me?" Flamy asked coldly.
At this moment, the glamour of Goldie as Boss Goldie was nowhere to be found. The sunglasses on his face had disappeared too.
"No, I really told you everything." Goldie was dejected.
"Oh, are you aggrieved?"
"No grievance…"
"Am I bullying you?"
"No…"
"Did I wrong you?"
"… No."
"I heard that you still have three adoptive children?"
"Yes."
"With whom?" Flamy asked casually.
Goldie was in a daze.
What and whose.
I merely took in foster sons. Why is she making it out to be like I had an affair?
Goldie reacted quickly, "Gao Peng and I."
Flamy, who was walking behind, stumbled to the ground.
Flamy looks up, her eyes full of panic.
What happened during my absence.
Goldie was moved by his moment of quick wits. Suddenly he heard Flamy quietly saying, "I am suddenly reminded of something. How would Gap Peng, with his lonesome personality, be agreeable to have adopted sons with you?"
"Goldie, from now on, your three adoptive sons have been renamed – Imperial roast duck, Jinling duck, and Devil's White Horse."
Goldie: "???"
I know the first two. But what's the last name?
"As for you, you'll be called baldie duck!"
Goldie was a little confused.
My name wasn't even as good as that Devil's White Horse.
They quarreled all the way back to Southern Sky Group.
A mountain outside Southern Sky Group was crowded with Bi Fang.
The tortoise carrying the mountain was very quiet.
It dared not move.
"I'd like to introduce you to the Bi Fang tribe…. This is the grandmaster, " Gao Peng quietly introduced Old Bi Fang to the crowd.
All the other members of the Bi Fang tribe had stayed outside. Only Flamy and Old Bi Fang were in the main hall. Otherwise, the palace couldn't be able to house so many familiars.
Gao Peng didn't know the specific identity of Old Bi Fang, hence referred to him as the grandmaster. Anyway, there won't be any mistake in addressing him that way.
"This is my grandfather, the chief of the Huaxia Tribe. You can understand it as the Head Elder. "
"These are my partners, Dumby, Da Zi, Flamy, Goldie…"
"This is the Eternal Evergreen Bird. Hey, say hello to everyone. Stop playing games."
Gao Peng was speechless toward this internet-addicted Eternal Evergreen Bird.
"BIU." the last two squares were eliminated, and a big smile appears on the screen.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird contentedly sneezed.
Then he turned around and looked at the crowd, blankly, "Who are you?"
A row of black lines appeared at the corner of Gao Peng's eyes.
Before this, no matter how one shouted, no one could move the Eternal Evergreen Bird, so Gao Peng simply held this meeting in the Eternal Evergreen Bird's room.
Is this guy truly so addicted to the game that he didn't pay attention to the people around or pretending to be naive?
Gao Peng can't comprehend the Eternal Evergreen Bird.
Gao Peng repeated what he had just asked.
Only then did the Eternal Evergreen Bird gave a nod. Superficially answered two questions then continued to click on for another round.
It had hundreds of feathers on one wing, each of which was as flexible as a finger.
The mouse in which the size of a large grinding plate could be easily controlled by it.
"This Eternal Evergreen Bird is an Internet addict. I will convey his opinions on behalf of him." Gao Peng said without any change in expression.
At the same time, he stealthily glanced at the Eternal Evergreen Bird.
The bird is still playing games and turned a deaf ear to the ongoings.
The Old Bi Fang looked at it twice. It was interesting, so he went up to watch the screen carefully.
"What is this?" the Old Bi Fang was curious. This thing doesn't emit any trace of elements, but it moves by itself. It was very interesting.
"This is a computer." For the first time, Eternal Evergreen Bird spoke.
Gaopeng's saw that the situation was not good.
One Internet-addicted Bird was enough. Having another group of them would be trouble.
Gao Peng quickly spoke, "the voucher of Fire."
The atmosphere grew chilly.
The Eternal Evergreen Bird rolled his eyes, vulgar issues.
Then they went on playing games.
Old Bi Fang drew back his attention and looked at Gao Peng with a smile. "Ok, let's get down to business."
"Well, let's settle the bill. To find the voucher of fire for you, it took me a lot of money to get the news. One portion of the Soul Devouring Hundred Grass Stone, two portions of the Purple Yingyun Iron, and two Anti-Magic Stone… "
Old Bi Fang looks strange. "Isn't Flamy your familiar? Do you still need me… "
"Even as a family, we have to be fair. At this moment, she is not my familiar, she is my partner, but she is also an excellent descendant of your Bi Fang family. I can't take away the responsibility of cultivating your descendant."
Old Bi Fang lost his smile, "forget it, whatever makes you happy."
"You want to make her a divine artifact, for a Ghoul type God… I know a place." "There would be something suitable for her to make a divine artifact," said old Bi Fang
Gao Peng nodded, "In a fight like this, can we fight her competitors until they are half dead and then let Flamy end it, would this be feasible?"
This was the simplest way that Gao Peng could think of.
Flamy would have no risk. Things are made simple.
"That won't work," "Old Bi Fang shook his head, "even if she killed her competitors, they would not release the Voucher of Fire.
"Why?" Gao Peng didn't understand.
"I don't know, but that's the regulations. Even if you wanted to secretly hurt her competitors and try to get her an advantage, you can't even do that."
Gao Peng frowned. How can this be so weird? Is this considered a rule? But to stipulate it as a regulation seemed reasonable too.
"But we are not completely useless. Our Bi Fang family is her backing. With us coming along with Flamy, we can challenge the enemy endlessly and without any worries. Even if we fail, it doesn't matter. We can give her countless opportunities."
Gao Peng nodded cautiously, "In the sea-facing Mysterious Fire world, Inferno Mountain Sea, a monster had once seen a quasi god-level monster with a voucher of fire appear. However, the inferno mountain sea is very large, and it would be difficult to search it thoroughly unless there's divine intervention. "
"This is your first fight. Let's try to get a good start," the old Bi Fang smiled at Flamy kindly.
Flamy nodded nervously.
Goldie stood beside her and patted his chest, "Don't be afraid, I'll protect you."
Flamy glared at him, "you just worry about not getting killed yourself. That will save me some trouble ."
After Goldie's interruption, Flamy was not as nervous as she had initially been.
Gao Peng said with a kind smile, "Don't worry. You have all of our backings."
No one knows how many planes there were in the sea. Most of the creatures in the sea would not leave their world within their life span.
Even the gods have only wandered a small area of the sea, which was considered a large space for them.
The location of the Inferno sea was not far from the black fog world, merely a distance of more than ten small worlds.
With knowledge of the fixed Spatial Tunnel, it took less than a month to reach the Inferno plane.

The Inferno Mountain Sea on the surface of the Mysterious Fire World was a place ablaze with flames.
The scorching flames burned fiercely. It was as if the entire world was set on fire.
The fervent flames soared into the sky.
An unending flow of heatwave after heatwave raged endlessly.
The moment he stepped onto this plane, Gao Peng felt a heatwave hit his face.
Although the harm which the high temperatures caused to him had been transferred to Flamy's body, the extremely high temperatures still made the clothes on Gao Peng's body turn damp.
The sweat which his body emitted drenched his clothes within a few seconds
"It's too hot," Gao Peng said.
"Master, take care not to get too hot," Desolion hastily said, trying his best to control the ice elements in the air.
But he subsequently realized that there were too few ice elements in the air. In his field of perception, fire elements were the majority, followed by light elements. As for ice elements and water elements, there was a pitifully small amount of them.
In such a situation, he could not even display three-tenths of his combat power.
Desolion could only release the ice elements stored in its body. Gao Peng only felt much more comfortable when the ice elements lingered around him.
Desolion did not control much ice mist. It was just enough to set off the heatwaves in the air. It was the temperature at which Gao Peng was the most comfortable.
"How thoughtful of you," Gao Peng felt very comforted and praised Desolion.
Desolion frantically nodded his head. "Being of service to Master is what makes me the happiest."
"Eh~ you're exaggerating, exaggerating. You're supposed to live for yourself, not for me. Do you understand?"
"Understood! Master's words are truly profound." Desolion engaged in another round of flattery, raising Gao Peng's spirits.
Flamy noticed this and muttered secretly to herself, one was a boot-licker, and one was shameless.
In the chaotic vanity space, a bright-silver phoenix traveled back and forth in the vanity space. A slightly smaller silver phoenix of the same species was similarly flying below it.
The body of the phoenix was transparent. There were numerous little silver particles on its open wings.
It did not have bones but only countless small silver dots of light scattered across various parts of its body. A dull silver thread connected the various parts of its body.
"Is your friend on the plane just in front of us?"
"Yes, mother dearest, my friend is just on the plane in front of us." A sweet-sounding female voice came out from the mouth of the little phoenix and said, "That friend of mine is extremely talented. I think we can take him into our constellation."
"My daughter, you know our rules. We can't just do things based only on our preferences." The big phoenix continued gently, "Furthermore, the current situation in the constellation is not that stable either. You know that."
The little phoenix lowered her head sadly. But it was obvious from her incessantly moving eyes that she had no thoughts of letting things be.
"The Surface Sea is right in front. Follow me closely and don't run off recklessly," the large phoenix said.
Amidst the vast vanity space, there was a soft white light in front of them.
Bubbles of various different colors floated and sank inside the vanity space.
There were large and small bubbles, and they were also of different colors. Among them, several bubbles had surfaces that were heavily damaged and were the dullest in color.
Countless "parasites" were wandering about outside these damaged bubbles.
There was no end in sight to this group of bubbles. The surfaces of these bubbles emitted a dense, strange light. They gathered together to form a sea.
The silver-white phoenix moved at a very fast speed. The distance between it and the Surface Sea rapidly shrank, and the little bubbles in front of it were gradually magnified as well.
The parasites that occupied the surfaces of the damaged bubbles also turned into huge monsters of massive sizes in the vanity space.
Cruel and greedy gazes swept over the phoenix.
The eyes of the phoenix were ice-cold. Through the aura that it emitted, the monsters in the vanity space sensed that it was not wise to provoke this chap. So, they averted their gazes and continued wandering about outside the damaged plane, playing the role of the insatiable predator.
"The Inferno Mountain Sea is so huge. We don't know the precise appearance and position of that Fire-type Quasi God either. How will we find it?" Goldie asked in confusion.
"I have a way." The old Bi Fang narrowed his eyes. He extracted a liter of blood from inside Flamy's body.
The old Bi Fang lifted his claws and used Flamy's blood to draw a complex formation on the floor. This formation had many layers. After drawing each layer, he had to wait ten minutes for it to dry slightly before continuing to draw.
After an hour, the old Bi Fang said, "There's not enough blood. Give me another liter of blood."
After two hours, the old Bi Fang continued to ask Flamy for blood.
This time, after using two-thirds of the blood, he finally finished drawing the formation.
There was a complex pattern drawn on the ground.
It was just an extremely high-grade formation with an extremely complicated pattern. From afar, it looked a little like the shape of a burning flame.
The fire elements in the vanity space slowly gathered together into a ball of fire in front of them.
The old Bi Fang let out a sigh. "It's stable now. We can also use it on the Surface sea."
The ball of fire in the vanity space gradually expanded to the size of a basketball.
Thereafter, the ball of fire split open in the middle, and a flame sprite sprang out from within.
The flame sprite did not have facial features. However, there was a golden ring binding its head where a person's nose would normally be. Its reddish-orange head was round, and it looked like a ping-pong ball.
It was dressed from the neck down in white muslin. The muslin clothing was very long, and there were even white flames burning on its surface.

[Monster Description] A being that had previously been extremely powerful. It had been split apart and sealed off in different parts of the world for some reason. Each part of it could be seen as an individual living being.
A little monster of Level 70. Gao Peng did not care about it after glancing at its level. But Gao Peng had never seen one of the attributes of this monster. Void-type?
Gao Peng had never heard of this type.
"I want to find out something." The old Bi Fang lifted its wings. Each and every feather on one part of his wings had a silver storage ring around it.
The densely-packed storage rings reflected the flames and blinded Gao Peng's eyes.
Gao Peng reached his arm out to block his eyes.
Damn it. The old Bi Fang usually seemed so wretched and frugal. He did not expect him to be a hidden wealthy man.
The old Bi Fang pecked at these storage rings for quite some time before taking out a precious scarlet stone from inside one of the storage rings.
Gao Peng, who was located closest to the old Bi Fang, heard him mumble, "I actually thought that I didn't bring this ring out with me this time."
The Harbinger of Fire picked up the precious stone from the ground. The precious stone melted in his hand like wax, melting into his body.
The Harbinger of Fire turned around twice in midair. He was obviously in a very good mood.
"What do you want to know?"
"The precise location of the Quasi God who is in possession of the Voucher of Fire."
The Harbinger of Fire averted his gaze from Flamy. "I knew you were going to ask about this. Go in this direction for about 300,000 miles, and you'll arrive at the place where he lives."

When he finished his sentence, the Harbinger of Fire turned around and jumped. His body shattered into countless red specks of light and blended into the air.
"What is this… a personal customer service officer? Or an earth god that works twenty-four-hour shifts?" Gao Peng could not insult him enough. How could he leave without saying a thing?
"They're the Harbingers of Fire," the old Bi Fang said to Flamy. In actual fact, he was explaining to Gao Peng.
"What's the identity of this Harbinger of Fire?" Gao Peng asked in confusion.
"I don't know." The old Bi Fang shook his head as if reluctant to discuss further. "Come on, let's go look for someone who can go up against Flamy."
Gao Peng nodded his head, his eyes gleaming.
Goldie put his arms behind his back and mimicked the way Gao Peng walked, swaying his head while walking behind Gao Peng.
There was a lake in the small valley. Lakes were very rare on the plane of the Mysterious Fire World. There were even more magma lakes here than there were lakes.
Being able to occupy and possess the lakes was the best evidence of one's ability.
A scarlet Aquatic Dragon lay on the bank beside the lake.
The Aquatic Dragon was a type of dragon. In reality, bloodline no longer had much of an effect on monsters once they were at the level of Quasi Gods.
The method which several Aquatic Dragons used to increase their ability was to purify their blood and then evolve in the direction of their dragon ancestors.
There were other Aquatic Dragons who continued strengthening themselves based on their true form. Once they reached the point of advanced power, whether or not they were real dragons no longer made any difference.
Even if they were Aquatic Dragons, they were nevertheless more powerful than many true dragons.
The Aquatic Dragon next to the lake evidently belonged to the latter group.
He lay by the lakeside, basking in the sun and enjoying the hot breeze. The corners of his lips were turned upwards.
Right now, he was happy.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked outside the valley in confusion. Thereafter, his expression changed drastically, and he turned around in a bid to fly away, no longer wanting his home.
But it was already too late.
A wall of fire blocked his path. The green wall of fire transformed into a sea of flames that covered him.
Front and back, up and down, left and right, he was left with only one exit. It was in the direction behind him.
The Aquatic Dragon shook its body, turned his head and roared in grief and indignation, "This strong creature, please just tell me if I offended you. I'll change!!!"
He had a very strong presence.
His worlds were awfully fearful…
The Aquatic Dragon saw a group of powerful beings gather around him and scrutinize him from head to toe. The Aquatic Dragon had never encountered such gazes, but they made his hair stand on end.
Of course, if the Aquatic Dragon had gone to the wet market before, he would probably know what kind of gazes these were.
"It's not him," a random ball said in human words.
The Aquatic Dragon heaved a sigh of relief. After this ball spoke, he sensed the murderous aura fixed on him lessen by a few degrees.
The Aquatic Dragon blinked his slightly dry eyes. Only in the end did he ascertain that this was not a ball, but a bird.
"I'll ask, and you'll answer. If I find your answer satisfactory, I'll let you off."
"Go ahead." The Aquatic Dragon dared not rebel.
"Is there anyone nearby who embarked on the Fire-type Path of Usurpation?" Gao Peng stared into the eyes of the Aquatic Dragon.
The face of the Aquatic Dragon was completely blank.
What was the Fire-type Path of Usurpation…
Goldie came forth and said secretively into Gao Peng's ear, "Gao Peng, this is a boorish dragon."
"I can tell." Gao Peng felt frustrated. He did not expect this Aquatic Dragon to have never heard of the Fire-type Path of Usurpation.
But it was normal too. The Eternal Green Crow was a God, and the Bi Fang clan was also a clan of mythical creatures that stretched back into ancient history. It was not strange that they knew about the Path of Usurpation.
Even Gao Peng had only found out about this thing after seeing the monster description.
"What I mean is, are there any stronger creatures around here? Those with very strong combat power in the same tier," Gao Peng frowned and said. The noise they had created from the fuss earlier was a little loud. If they did not move quickly, that monster would escape.
"Oh, oh. I know this. There's a magma lake over there. Inside the magma lake, there's a very formidable old hedgehog. The thorns all over his body are very disgusting."
At present, a 15-meter long hedgehog that was completely gold in color was looking vigilantly in the direction of Gao Peng and the rest from the bottom of the magma lake. Earlier, he had sensed a very powerful aura. Although it was not directed at him, he had no choice but to be cautious when it was so near him.
"I found him. He's just below. I sense him." The hedgehog heard an icy voice from above him.
The next moment, a powerful breath latched onto him.
The hedgehog's expression changed abruptly.
The Voucher of Fire within his body suddenly leaped up, as if there was something above him that was attracting it.
A feeling was mysteriously and inexorably, guiding it to devour the thing above it.
The magma lake was boiling fiercely. The gold-red magma bubbled out, just like an invisible giant hand was grabbing the lake.
Along with it, the hedgehog in the magma lake was also taken out.
Sphere after sphere of magma fell downwards.
Creating large pits one after another.
The fiery magma spurted.
In the sky, a large golden hedgehog glared as its four short legs struggled frantically. A shrill cry of anger came from its mouth!
"Eeeee…"
"Fight one round against me. You can leave if you win." Flamy shouted loudly in anger. The flames curled around her entire body transformed into a fire dragon that rushed towards the hedgehog.
The hedgehog cursed silently. She will let me leave if I win. What if I lose?
You mother bird, how can you be so cruel?
The hedgehog also summoned the flames to duel against Flamy.
But it had to be mentioned that Flamy had taken quite good care of herself during her time in the Bi Fang Ancestral Land. Of course, this did not refer to her physical size but to her control of flames.
There was no method to speak of when it came to battles between monsters. But just like different arrangements of carbon atoms could form charcoal and diamonds.
The power that varying arrangements of elements could release was also as different as heaven and earth!
The Bi Fang Clan had been around for many generations. Naturally, it had its unique understanding and legacies.
Gao Peng could palpably sense that the manner and power of Flamy's flames were significantly more advanced than before.
The ability of this Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog was not weak. It was a Level 97 legendary Quasi God. None of the ordinary Quasi Gods were a match for him. However, he was unexpectedly at the losing end when he was up against Flamy.
Gao Peng looked on from the side and managed to figure out some methods.
Flamy had an advantage in terms of her special characteristics.
Her special characteristic, Wings of Fire, substantially increased her resistance towards fire elements. This Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog could not cause much harm to Flamy. On the contrary, the temperature of Flamy's flames was exceptionally high. Her flames could burn a hole through the body of the Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog as long as they fell on his body.
Half of all the abilities of the Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog were related to close-range combat. The densely-packed and golden thorns on his back were definitely not for show.
But Flamy simply refused to engage in close-range combat with him and kept treating him like a kite on a string.
Retreat when the enemy attacks and attack when the enemy retreats.
They were completely unafraid of the explosion of elements from afar.
Halfway through the battle, the Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog could no longer tolerate it.
Since I can't beat you, then it's fine for me not to fight with you, right?
The Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog turned around to escape.
Only for his path to be blocked by a wall of fire.
With a cry, Flamy rushed forth…
"Not bad. You defeated the opponent on your own without relying on us in this battle." The old Bi Fang felt very pleased. This was definitely for the best.
After all, the Bi Fang Clan wanted to nurture a true warrior and not a coward who could only rely on the old seniors to make a move.
A reddish-golden badge flew out from inside the burnt body of the Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog lying on the ground and merged into Flamy's body.
Two scarlet rays shot out from Flamy's eyes. Flamy flapped her wings and set off a fire tornado.
The breath within Flamy's body rose dramatically.
"Almost there. As long as you attack another few competitors, your blood will complete one round of transformation," the old Bi Fang said in relief.
"Transformation?" Gao Peng was confused.
The old Bi Fang was evidently in very good spirits. "One huge transformation can generate a thorough increase in her power. It may even cause her to evolve."
Gao Peng thought for a very long time before realizing it. Wasn't this precisely an advancement in grade…
After glancing at Flamy, who was still of legendary grade, Gao Peng sank into deep thought.

Chapter 790: I'm All About Fairness When It Comes to Battles
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
To begin with, the effect of the Voucher of Fire was to advance the grade of a monster.
Gao Peng was in deep thought. No wonder so many monsters were on a wild goose chase for her.
There was no need for other ingredients and no need to put in the utmost effort to search for those treasures either. Most importantly, although these monsters expended a lot of effort finding some of the legendary treasures, they did not necessarily evolve after consuming them.
No wonder there were so many monsters all hoping to obtain the Voucher of Fire.
It was simple and straightforward and extremely convenient and fast.
They could evolve without working hard or taking trouble over it.
The evolved forms that ultimately resulted from different routes of evolution were all different as well. Gao Peng was also looking forward to Flamy's evolved form after relying on the Voucher of Fire to evolve.
During the subsequent period of time, Flamy challenged the other Quasi Gods who had obtained the Voucher of Fire. Gao Peng and the rest had found out from the Eternal Evergreen Bird the location of the three Fire-type Quasi Gods.
While the Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog had significant power, it nevertheless paled in comparison to the other two Fire-type Quasi Gods.
Flamy's second opponent was the Inferno Tyrant.
The Inferno Tyrant was an elemental-type monster. His entire body burned with raging flames. He was more than ten meters tall, and there were three Flame Auras circling its feet.
Flamy, who had always relied on her own Fire Resistance to suppress others, finally got a taste of her own medicine this time.
By nature, the Inferno Tyrant had an extremely high Fire Element Immunity. His immunity against fire elements was even more frightening than Flamy's.
He barely felt anything when Flamy's flames fell on him. The injury caused to him was negligible.
"We're in trouble now." The old Bi Fang's gaze was venomous. If they continued to fight fairly, Flamy would definitely not be a match for the Inferno Tyrant.
It was not because Flamy was not powerful, but because Flamy was coincidentally suppressed.
The Inferno Tyrant on the volcano was beating its sturdy chest in a frenzy and roaring in anger.
He stretched his right hand into the magma lake beneath his feet and grabbed a large amount of magma. It coagulated in his hand into a red spear.
A terrifying Godly Aura gathered on the spear and was violently hurled out just like Spartan soldiers.
Bang–
The fearsome blasts collided with the rock walls, creating explosive slamming sounds.
The spear very narrowly passed under Flamy's left wing. It would have pierced through her heart if it had leaned a little closer to the left.
Flamy directed her flames in a counter-attack, transforming the area where the Inferno Tyrant was into a sea of fire.
However, in the sea of fire, the motion of the Inferno Tyrant was completely unaffected. On the contrary, it moved even more swiftly than it had before.
The Inferno Tyrant grabbed spear after spear from the magma. Then, he hurled them in a frenzy.
After dodging 36 spears in succession, Flamy was finally hit in a moment of carelessness. The section of her wing that was hit suddenly exploded, immediately creating a huge hole.
The Inferno Tyrant grinned evilly. He stooped down at the waist once again and lifted some magma. The magma streamed downwards, just like mud.
It formed a ridiculously massive battle-ax in the hand of the Inferno Tyrant.
The edges of the battle-ax had sharp serrations. As long as the ax was pulled downwards after it had successfully hit the opponent, flesh and bone would be torn into pieces.
Flamy's speed was affected by her injured wing. She looked on helplessly as the Inferno Tyrant approached her without stopping.
"How dare you hurt my wife! Yours truly is going to hack you to death, you idiot!!!" With a glare, Goldie retrieved his Divine Axe from behind his back and rushed forward insolently.
"Goldie, don't make a move," the old Bi Fang hastily called out to him. If Goldie interfered, the nature of this battle would change. Even if they won in the end, they would not be able to obtain the Voucher of Fire. In that case, why did they come all the way here?
Just to duel with a Quasi God that they had never met before?
They would not have so much energy to get involved in something that was not their business, even if they ate too much.
But Gao Peng had another way of thinking. Earlier, they had obtained the Voucher of Wind after the corpses of that Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle, and the Wing of Savage Sand had decomposed.
This also meant that the ability of the Dark Child was the exception to the "norm."
Not even the old Bi Fang and the rest of them had ever possessed such power. They may not even have heard of it.
The ability of Dark Child was very abnormal.
As a result, Gao Peng did not want to reveal Dark Child's power in front of the old Bi Fang.
"Goldie, don't do anything. You need only help Flamy fend off attacks from the Inferno Tyrant," Gao Peng communicated to Goldie in secret through the Blood Contract.
Goldie stopped in his tracks and moved the Divine Axe behind his back in understanding.
The eyes of the Inferno Tyrant flashed. A bald and tattooed duck suddenly stood in front of him and wrapped himself around his legs unyieldingly.
The Inferno Tyrant stumbled and nearly fell. Fortunately, Goldie was holding on to his legs.
That was the only reason he did not fall.
The Inferno Tyrant lowered his head, and he had a contorted expression on his face. At such a close distance, it was also very difficult to fully use the giant ax.
It would grow stronger with every inch. But it was difficult to make good use of it when someone was clinging to his back.
The Inferno Tyrant simply threw aside the giant ax. His massive hands wrapped around Goldie's head, just like a butcher squeezing a watermelon.
Goldie's head was more solid than he had imagined.
He could not squeeze his hard head.
"This is a battle between us competitors for the Voucher of Fire. How can you interfere?", the Inferno Tyrant roared at Goldie.
"I'm not interfering," Goldie said peacefully. He dangled off the legs of the Inferno Tyrant like a dried fish and pressed his face to the Inferno Tyrant's thigh.
"Then, what are you doing right now?" The Inferno Tyrant was about to turn mad. He could not even leave. This duck had extraordinary strength.
Furthermore, he was also extremely good at enduring beatings. There was no effect at all, either when his blows fell on this duck.
Goldie played the role of a human shield. Goldie did not retaliate either. He was just like a troublemaker, allowing the Inferno Tyrant to hit him as he wished.
Although the Inferno Tyrant looked strong, in reality, he was considered more of a Magic-type monster.
How could his physical power compare to that of Goldie, a monster who purely engaged in close-range physical combat?
Goldie took on all the flames of the Inferno Tyrant, allowing Flamy to stand behind him and release flames to her heart's content.
After discovering that Fire-type attacks did not have much effect on the Inferno Tyrant, Flamy switched to Soul-type attacks instead.
Apart from being in control of flame attacks, Flamy also had the ability to initiate soul attacks.
Her Soul Power transformed into the Great Clock, which jolted the soul of the Inferno Tyrant dead, obliterating it bit by bit.
The Inferno Tyrant ultimately collapsed unwillingly. Before he died, he looked up to the sky and sighed deeply at the fact that the thieving bird had actually cheated.
Flamy said arrogantly, "How did I cheat? I was the only bird hitting you. I definitely engaged in a fair battle with you."
"Then what was he doing?!" The Inferno Tyrant pointed at this bald duck that was sticking to him relentlessly like dogskin plaster.
"I'm an admirer of yours. I wanted to hug my idol. You can ignore me," Goldie said expressionlessly.
The Inferno Tyrant died with his grudge unsatisfied.
He lay on the ground and stared at Goldie unwaveringly.
After welding together with the Voucher of Fire of the Inferno Tyrant, Flamy's breath increased sharply once again.
Goldie released both of his hands and crawled up from the ground.
His chest and face were completely red from the heat and were slightly injured by burning.
Flamy flew over to him. As she looked at Goldie's injuries, her gaze softened by a few degrees.
"Goodness. It's not a big deal." Goldie patted his bum offhandedly.
"It's a minor injury. It's alright as long as you're fine." Goldie turned his head and walked to Gao Peng's side.
Gao Peng summoned Xiao Cao to treat Flamy's and Goldie's injuries.
The old Bi Fang averted his gaze. He did not think that a battle could even be conducted this way…
He had learned something new.
He had really learned something new…

It was as if two people were fighting and another person was coaxing them to stop.
While coaxing them to stop, he was hugging one of the people fighting and stopping him from moving. He was even saying some comforting words.
"Calm down, calm down. Don't be impulsive. Impulse is the devil, a demon, a monster."
If you have such guts, then go and hug that person opposite me. What logic is there in grabbing me and refusing to let me go?!
After dealing with the Inferno Tyrant, Gao Peng and his entourage relocated again to look for Flamy's last competitor. Gao Peng also conveniently stored away the corpse of the Inferno Tyrant on the ground.
After half a day, a silvery light shone in this small world. A sharp, silver knife cut through the Vanity Space, forming a crack. The silver Light of God swept through the Vanity Space, jolting it and forcibly opening up a Spatial Tunnel.
Two rays of silvery light flew out from the Spatial Tunnel and landed on the ground. Two silver phoenixes, one large and one small, showed themselves.
"My friend told me the last time that he lives here." The little silver phoenix assessed her surroundings.
She was a little unaccustomed to the blistering hot environment. A silver barrier shone and blocked the heatwaves outside.
"Is he not around?", the silver phoenix asked doubtfully.
They did not conceal their breaths either. Logically, he should have been here a long time ago.
This time, she had actually expended a lot of effort to convince her mother to accept her friend into the constellation.
"There's an Air of Death here." The eyes of the large phoenix emitted a gentle, white light.
Everything around them was decomposing, including the Air of Death in the atmosphere that had yet to dissipate completely.
The Air of Death was pulled back by an invisible force, outlining a blurry apparition on the ground.
It was precisely the appearance of the Inferno Tyrant.
"It's him!" The tone of the little silver phoenix was laced with shock and anger.
"Mother, you must help my friend…"
"That's enough."
Whatever the little silver phoenix wanted to say afterward was interrupted.
"I'm very sorry that your friend was unlucky, but this matter has nothing to do with us."
"Why?" The little silver phoenix was completely puzzled.
"Because this is his fate. He was not yet a member of our constellation. This time, we have something even more important to do."
"Mother, are you not here for the purpose of enlisting my friend," the little phoenix muttered to herself.
"No." Her response was very cruel and very resolute too. The large silver phoenix immediately cut off the hopes of the little silver phoenix.
"Oh…" The little silver phoenix was stunned.
A little world in the Surface Sea that was on the edge of ruin.
This small world was already counting down to destruction. Destruction was irreversible.
A big part of the sky collapsed to reveal a pitch-black crevice.
Outside the crevice was the boundless Vanity Space. A few gigantic monsters in the Vanity Space wandered past the surface of the crevice from time to time, greedily spying on this world that was on the verge of destruction.
In the center of the small world, an odd and deformed peak that looked like it had been pinched out by some massive force stood tall, just like a pole stuck in the ground.
An incomparably gigantic palm print could even be seen on the surface of this mountain peak. It looked as if it was the result of kneading by some strange force.
A black-colored monkey sat atop the hill.
There was a vertical strand of golden fur on the monkey's forehead.
The monkey sat on a piece of rock. There was a bamboo basket by his feet.
There were numerous golden ores placed inside the bamboo basket.
The monkey grabbed a handful of ores and threw them into the sky.
They were hurled out of this world through the crack, forming a stream of shooting stars in the horizon.
The golden ores did not stop growing bigger in the Vanity Space, transforming into meteorites which stretched across the Vanity Space in disorder.
The large monsters wandering about the Vanity Space roared and surged forth.
They fell over each other in a mad rush to be first.
The monkey's elbow was supported by his own thigh.
He gazed straight ahead with vacant eyes.
As if there was nothing around him that mattered to him.
He occasionally grabbed a handful of stones and fed them to the giant monsters in the Vanity Space outside this world.
The giant monsters in the Vanity Space were extremely obedient in front of this monkey. Of course, it was because they had learned many lessons from the numerous mistakes of their predecessors.
A ray of silvery light flew from afar and landed on the top of the mountain.
Just like countless stars falling from the sky.
The black monkey did not stop his movements and said coolly, "Why are you guys from the star alliance looking for me?"
"We're now a constellation. The star alliance is a thing of the past," the silver phoenix said.
The black monkey sneered. "How pretentious. What's the difference?"
"I'm here to seek your cooperation. Our constellation has decided to look for a new hideout. We have to choose an area from the Surface Sea…"
"Ok. I understand." The black monkey continued neutrally, "I'm not interested."
"But this is also a chance." The silver phoenix swallowed her subsequent words.
Because a pair of ice-cold eyes were locked on her. She suspected that she would suffer death if she simply said another word!
His power became even more terrifying!
As expected of the most fearsome being in the history of the clan of Heaven-Capturing Apes.
"Get lost."
The silver phoenix sighed and turned to leave.
Once the silver phoenix had gone far away, the black monkey stretched out his hand and grabbed at the crevice.
A large, furry hand that was massive beyond compare passed through the crack directly and suddenly grabbed at the chaotic Vanity Space.
A few giant monsters in the Vanity Space did not dodge in time and were caught in his palm.
"Krk, krk."
The black monkey was chewing on something in his mouth.
The sounds were sharp and crisp.
"You guys must be careful. The giant monsters in the Vanity Turbulence are extremely dangerous. If you run into a herd of giant monsters, I may not be able to save you," the old Bi Fang said in a low voice.
"That place is really very remote. I didn't think that there wouldn't be a Spatial Tunnel leading straight to it. We even have to go through the Vanity Turbulence," another old senior of the Bi Fang Clan grumbled.
A ray of silvery light flashed ahead of them in the Vanity Turbulence.
The speed of the silvery light was extremely quick.
Gao Peng barely caught a glimpse of a silver phoenix which seemed to be made up of starlight disappear in front of his eyes.
The old Bi Fang waited for that phoenix to travel into the distance before saying, "That phoenix we saw earlier is very powerful."
Gao Peng nodded silently, because the only thing he saw was a mess of numbers when he wanted to look up the attributes of this phoenix.
This was just a short interlude. Gao Peng did not know this phoenix, nor did this phoenix know him.
Along the way, they did not encounter any monsters in the Vanity Space. This made the old Bi Fang a little surprised. He merely attributed it to his own good luck.
When they stepped onto the plane, the abundant water elements in the air hit them in the face.
This was a plane where water elements were at an advantage.
It was unbelievable that a Fire-type monster that possessed the Voucher of Fire had been born in such an environment.
It was very rare.
The location of this monster was very obvious. As the Eternal Evergreen bird had said, this monster was inside a yin yang lake.
This yin yang lake was divided into the fire lake and the water lake.
There was natural rock magma in it, and a natural cold pond.
It was extremely rare that these two entirely opposite attributes were found together.
The thing that was hardest to come by was that the color of the water lake was completely ice-blue in color. Coupled with the scarlet fire lake, the two colors of red and blue mutually reflected off each other.
All it took was one glance for such an amazing terrain to be absolutely unforgettable.
Most importantly, it was very easy to locate.
They flew in the sky and conducted an inch-by-inch search. At the same time, they captured monsters on the way and inquired from them. After a week, they finally found the yin yang lake that had been recorded.
At the bottom of the yin yang lake, a massive crocodile with a long mouth and black nails sticking out from his entire body lay at the bottom of the lake.
His eyes were blown wide open when he sensed the breath of the Voucher of Fire within Flamy's body.
The bottom of the lake was sent into complete turbulence.
Rumbling sounds, rumbling sounds…
Luminescent blue flames curled around his body.

Chapter 792: Jade Water Demon Crocodile
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
A terrifying breath burst out of the massive crocodile in the water. The surface of the lake burned with luminescent blue flames.
The flames caused the surface of the lake to freeze. The low temperatures of the cold waves swept into the sky.
The low temperatures swept across the surroundings. Everything that the cold wave passed over was frozen, and frost began to form.
The chilly air transformed into ripples that spread outwards. Ripple after ripple enveloped all sides.
Desolion took a step forward and opened his mouth to swallow. All of the cold air on this side was swallowed by Desolion into his stomach.
Desolion's eyes brightened, and two streams of white fog spurted from his nostrils.
The low temperatures did no harm at all to Gao Peng and the rest.
How weak.
Flamy lowered her head disdainfully and cast a glance at the Jade Water Demon Crocodile. Weakling, he can't even beat… my comrade.
Flamy gathered her wings and drew a circular arc with her body in midair before descending from the sky.
Creating a beautiful mark in the sky.
Like a slanted line is drawn across the horizon.
A downward stroke to the left, a downward stroke to the right.
The flames were just like wings swelling and being gathered together soon after.
Forming a tight and delicate dark-green flame armor.
In particular, Flamy's beak had turned entirely dark green, emitting a harsh cold light.
Boom…
There was a clamor of smoke and dust as the earth shattered layer by layer.
Flamy pierced through the back of the Jade Water Demon Crocodile.
Immediately forming a massive and bloody hole.
A massive volume of Wooden Heart Flames entered the body of the Jade Water Demon Crocodile, causing it to burn thereafter.
Boom!
It exploded and resulted in double the damage.
The explosion created a massive cave in the back of the Jade Water Demon Crocodile that was dripping with blood.
Amidst the piercing pain, the Jade Water Demon Crocodile rolled its body. The fatal signature move of the Crocodile was the Toss of Death.
The biting force of the Quasi God Jade Water Demon Crocodile was naturally terrifying. Although he was unable to bite the bird on his back, it did not mean that he had no other method of counter-attack.
A ferocious spark flashed in his eyes.
With the Jade Water Demon Crocodile as the center, his upper and lower bodies each emitted luminescent-blue projections.
Like a prehistoric demon crocodile that had stepped out from the distant past opening its large mouth.
The terrifying crocodile, which could swallow the heavens and devour the earth, opened his jaws wide. His densely-packed and sharp teeth hung from his upper jaw like saws.
The invisible ripples in the air spread outwards, followed swiftly by a vicious atmosphere locked on Flamy.
The Cold Flames: The Toss of Nightmares!
As silent as an elegant lady and as brisk as a rabbit escaping, the massive mouth erupted in that short moment.
The elements boiled, and blue tidal waves spilled out of the narrow gap in his closed lips.
After that, the sky spun, and the earth turned, and time was thrown into disorder.
Leaving only the sounds of the waves whirling between heaven and earth, lingering at one's ears.
Goldie's eyes turned red. He grabbed ahold of the divine ax on his back and slammed it downwards. In the near distance, the remnants of the ax's brilliance split a mountain into two.
"Flamy is fine," Gao Peng gazed straight ahead and said.
Goldie's face heated up. He raised the divine ax in his hands horizontally in front of his chest. Then, he gently rubbed the edge of the ax blade and sighed, saying, "As expected, this ax of mine is still as sharp as ever."
After easing the awkward atmosphere, Goldie concealed the unnecessary expressions on his face and hauled the massive ax onto his back once again.
On the battlefield ahead of them, flames were gathering in the sky to form a flower.
The flower bloomed, and a round Bi Fang flew out from its center.
Who else could it be but Flamy?
However, Flamy's breath was extremely messed up at present. There were also a few small wounds on her wings, back, and neck, which seemed to have been caused by a blade.
It was very obvious that Flamy had also paid a certain price in order to avoid the fatal blow of the Jade Water Demon Crocodile.
After being attacked once, Flamy became aware of her advantage and also her opponent's advantage. So, she hid in the distance and did not engage in close-range combat with this chap.
She transformed the area where the Jade Water Demon Crocodile was situated, into a sea of fire.
The immunity of the Jade Water Demon Crocodile against flames was not as high as the previous two Quasi Gods. When faced with terrifyingly high temperatures, he could only choose to avoid them. But at the same time, speed was not his strong point either. He had no way of shrugging Flamy off at all.
Yet, Flamy would notice as soon as he wanted to counter-attack and use her advantage of flight to evade his attacks.
After an hour, the Jade Water Demon Crocodile was slowing down more and more. He had been burnt to the point where his skin was split and his flesh torn.
There was even the fragrance of something akin to chicken drifting in the air.
In the end, it fell to the ground with a thud and died.
"Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap~."
The crisp sounds of applause reverberated in the sky.
Gao Peng, Goldie, Desolion, Liuguang, and Silly were clapping enthusiastically.
Fatty Big Sea lay on the ground on his side, patting his flabby belly with his fin.
The air was brimming with a joyous atmosphere.
Flamy turned around with a disgruntled expression on her face. What are you guys doing?
"Brilliant! Brilliant!" Gao Peng nodded his head vigorously.
Goldie smiled until his mouth was lopsided.
Flamy was flustered. She finally realized what Gao Peng's shameless disciples were doing.
Didn't I just kill a Quasi God on my own without relying on you guys? Is there a need to go so – overboard?
She glared menacingly at Goldie. I can't do anything about Gao Peng, but I can do something about you, you little baldy!
Goldie was still smiling dumbly. He was completely unaware of what fate had in store for him thereafter.
After absorbing the Voucher of Fire from the Jade Water Demon Crocodile, Flamy's breath continued to increase.
After a long time, Flamy said, "I'm at a bottleneck. I feel as if I will be able to evolve if I absorb just one more." Flamy sounded a little excited.
"We will keep a lookout." Gao Peng nodded, reminding Flamy to remain calm and patient.
They were just about to leave when a fearsome blast exploded above them.
Gao Peng looked up only to see a huge crack. A long blade that was whitish-gold in color came through the crack and sliced the sky open.
All living things could sense the powerful force emanating from the surface of the sky. The other party had no intention of hiding it either. The elements in the sky were currently rioting.
"Let's go," Gao Peng hastily said without hesitation.
They had just walked a few hundred meters away when the Vanity Space turned distorted in front of them. A Tree Man with eight leaves on his head appeared and blocked them.
Vigilance was evident in Gao Peng's eyes.
This Tree Man was a mid-tier True God who possessed 18.2% of Tree Pith Precepts.
"I've been observing you people for a very long time. I'm also aware that all of you just killed the Jade Water Demon Crocodile."
"So, are you going to take revenge on us for him?" Gao Peng said slowly. He stealthily stored Flamy and the rest away in his Familiar Space, leaving only Dumby outside.
With Dumby, the old Bi Fang, and another God from the Bi Fang Clan, Gao Peng was not afraid of this Tree Man.
"I'm not taking revenge for him. I just want to tell you that I mean no harm." It seemed that the Tree Man did not speak often. His tone was very stiff.
"Our world has been invaded. I want to ask for your help in assisting us in resisting the evil spirits from foreign realms."
"My apologies. There's nothing I can do." Gao Peng shook his head. Then, he merged with Dumby and left with the old Bi Fang and the others, skirting around the Tree Man.
Immense disappointment showed in the vacant eyes of the Tree Man.
However, this feeling was swept away in no time. He turned his head and gazed at the sky silently.
The soil by the Tree Man's feet started turning, and a Mud Man burrowed out from the soil.
The Mud Man opened his mouth. His hollow mouth was so black that it seemed like a black hole. "I told you from the start that it was impossible. You really have a block of wood for a brain."
"I have to at least give it a try." The Tree Man was not angry, either.
"The old loach and I are planning to leave. Come with us too," the Mud Man said.
"You guys go ahead. I won't be leaving." The Tree Man shook his head slowly.
"Are you mad? Are you a match for him? Even in the Constellation, this chap is well-known."
The Tree Man raised his head and looked up at the sky. Branches and branches dangled from his drooping arms to the soil by his feet. In the blink of an eye, they took root in the soil by a depth of a few kilometers. They were even continuing to stretch further into the ground.
The dense roots broke through the surface of the ground like pythons. The Tree Man looked up at the sky and uttered a cry, stretching his arms wide open as if looking up at the sky and embracing the sun.
Boom!
Boom!
One by one, tree trunks rose from the ground.
There were no branches or leaves on the thick tree trunks. They were just cylindrical tree trunks that were ash-brown in color. They shot into the sky like massive pillars meant to support the sky.
"I was born in this world. Even if I die, I must return to my homeland."
Amidst the huge waves that filled the sky, the soil clamored as it whirled and soared into the sky, swept along by the vines.
For a moment, the sky was hidden, and the earth was covered as dust filled the whole sky.
"Seriously…" The Mud Man shook his head. "You've shown yourself to be such a good person. I'm afraid of death, alright?"
Report chapter
The clay person froze and a network of fissures opened on its dry body.
Then it shattered into bits on the ground.
The ground shook, an area of land was torn out of the earth.
A lush divine tree rose into the sky.
Eight leaves at the crown of the tree swayed, glimmering golden light. Then, gold leaves began sprouting all over the branches.
A wind blew forth, the leaves rustled.
The roots under the divine tree snarled into a hollow sphere.
The ball of soil was very big, many times bigger than even the divine tree's trunk.
The center of the tree trunk suddenly split open, and a holy green light radiated from within as if an eye opened on the tree.
Impossibly strange.
A green light shot out of the gap in the tree into the sky, all the air in its path was infected and lignified.
Vines tangled around the green light.
The platinum knife foot was struck by the green light, the injury protruded outward, forming a green burl.
Thousands of vines several hundred meters long shot out from the burl and wrapped around the knife foot.
Wood Rule– Regenerating Leaves!
Once you become the host of the parasitic burls, lignified vines grow out endlessly from the burl, strangling the host like a snake. The energy for the vines' growth also comes from the host itself.
The longer you were infected, the worse your situation.
The platinum foot shook, a defensive aura swirled around it. Silvery white sword lights flew around the air.
The vines broke up in segments.
The air suddenly quivered, another region's space became visibly distorted.
Then it broke.
Another sharp foot covered in platinum light burst through the space.
Cutting down like a divine knife from heaven.
The tree person seemed to have foreseen this. A tree trunk flew in from the side to block the divine knife.
Clatter!
Like a chopper hitting wood.
The wood broke into two.
But it took most of the strength of the attack. The network of vines managed to halt the platinum divine knife.
Its attacks were intercepted twice in a row.
After a moment of silence, the entity outside the world withdrew its two feet, leaving two gaping holes in the sky.
The holes shrank continuously.
The powers of the world automatically patched up the spatial rifts created by the alien destructive force.
The tree person continued to be on guard for a bit. No movements came from outside the world.
It seems to really have given up.
The tree person let out a sigh of relief. It finally managed to drag out some time.
That's the only thing it can do for this world….
Puchi!
A platinum blade penetrated the space between its brows.
Time stopped at this moment.
The tree person opened its mouth to say something. Then, holes opened all over its body, rays of platinum light shot out of its mouth and those holes.
The blade made an obscure sound against the tree.
The tree person let out a mingled roar. It trembled, then its body finally broke.
At the edge of this world, a clay person and a fish person sensed something. They turned around to look in the direction of the tree person.
Then they gazed at each other and sighed.
They felt sad for the loss of their kind.
They've been friends for hundreds of thousands of years.
And yet it's dead all of a sudden.
They just stepped through the Vanity Tunnel when a light flashed before their eyes.
The Vanity Tunnel was hashed by two terrifying platinum knives.
The two Gods were exposed in the Vanity Turbulence
In the vanity space before them, a massive monster slowly appeared.
Its body was nearly the size of a continent, like a beetle magnified infinite times.
But it had eight arms, the front part of each arm was a platinum blade arm.
Its back had countless dense black chimney holes, which spouted platinum fog into the air. Platinum fog formed a canopy over the top of the monster's head.
"Platinum Blade, Edolas." The clay person took on a pained expression, "We didn't stop you, nor did we fight against you. What your Constellation wants to do has nothing to do with us."
"Yield, or die!!!"
A horrible Spiritual Wave swept across the entire chaotic vanity space.
On the other side, Gao Peng had left for a while.
He felt a terrifying aura behind him.
The old Bi Fang said in a low voice, "A big scary thing showed up behind us."
"How scary?" Gao Peng asked.
The old Bi Fang thought for a bit and gave an easily understood comparison, "Like the silver phoenix we saw that day."
Gao Peng recalled the silver phoenix from that day. It was an encoded tier individual.
The highest tier of existence Gao Peng can see right now is Higher God.
Any monsters above Higher God appear encoded in Gao Peng's eyes.
Perhaps because Gao Peng's Soul Power differed too much from that tier of monster.
It's worth mentioning the old Bi Fang is a Higher God
Another God in the Bi Fang clan is a Medium God.
"Good thing we walk fast, otherwise it would have caught us," Gao Peng repressed his desire to look back. With that level of being, just your gaze could expose you.
Only after they made some distance did everyone let down their guards. Fortunately, it didn't notice them.
"Sir, have you heard of Constellations?" Gao Peng remembered the voice of the clay person in the chaotic vanity space, saying the Platinum Blade came from Constellation.
"Constellation…no. I've heard of Star Covenant though," the old Bi Fang shook his head.
Constellation and Star Covenant, Gao Peng suspected these two groups were related just by looking at their names.
"What organization is Star Covenant?"
"Star Covenant isn't an organization. It's an alliance located in the Tyrant Galaxy," the old Bi Fang said.
"Star Covenant has a long history. It's a very ancient alliance that has existed for millions of years. At first, Star Covenant only had some Star type monsters. Then a big civil war broke out in Surface Sea, and some monsters fled to Tyrant Galaxy. Some monsters that committed crimes or were exiled were also sent to Tyrant Galaxy."
"Back then, no one really cared about Star Covenant. It was nameless. What made Star Covenant famous was a war."
"Five hundred thousand years ago, Star Covenant made an infiltration, sweeping the entire universe from Tyrant Galaxy."
Gao Peng was bewildered when he heard this, sweeping the entire universe, they were that amazing?
The old Bi Fang seemed to recall something funny, and couldn't hold in a laugh, "Then this infiltration started great and ended poorly. Star Covenant's aggressive infiltration lasted only five years before it was put down by allied forces. The leader and vice leader of the Star Covenant were both killed, and their bodies put on display for 300 years."
"Star Covenant holed up again in Tyrant Galaxy and was no longer heard from. I don't know what happened after that."
Thought you were a grandmaster, but you were only a platinum.
Not as bad as a bronze, at least they were bold enough to fight all the forces in the universe and didn't get wiped out, so they do have some skills.
"Then, have you heard of Platinum Blade?" Gao Peng asked.
"No." The old Bi Fang was certain he never heard of Platinum Blade.
Either it's a new star–
Or it's an alias.
On their way back, Gao Peng and the rest noticed several planes were being infiltrated.
There weren't any entities on the level of Platinum Blade among the infiltrators, but they probably belonged to the same force.
Luckily, Black Fog World was located at the border of Surface Sea and Jiutian Shidi, so Black Fog World and the other small, nearby worlds didn't show signs of infiltration.

Returning to Black Fog World, Gao Peng sent people to stand guard at the spatial rifts around Black Fog World. He also secretly made preparations for migration.
How disastrous, with any misfortune, they might have to run again….
Gao Peng sat on the edge of the Continent Emperor Turtle, tens of thousands of meters below his feet as if he stood on the clouds.
Gao Peng sighed.
Being weak was tough. You couldn't offend anyone.
But that couldn't be helped. You can't just open a small universe with ambition alone.
This wasn't just a small difference.
When the difference was too big, it's better just to run.
"We're going back," the old Bi Fang bid farewell to Gao Peng. These Bi Fang have left Fire God Valley for so long, and they took away quite a big part of the clan's force. It was fine in the short term, but not in the long term.
Gao Peng turned around. He understood the old Bi Fang's decision, "Okay, take Flamy with you."
The old Bi Fang blanked for a second. He thought Gao Peng might make other terms or try to make her stay.
"Okay," the old Bi Fang nodded. He wanted to take Flamy in the first place and prepared many excuses before he talked to Gao Peng. It seems like he doesn't need them now.
After a moment of hesitation, he said, "I know you're not going to leave now, but if you really…come down to it, our Fire God Valley can house a couple of thousand people."
That was the old Bi Fang's promise.
Gao Peng smiled, nodding, "Thank you, then."
"Good luck to you," the old Bi Fang sighed, turning to leave, "We're leaving tomorrow."
After the old Bi Fang left, Goldie strutted over with red eyes, "Gao Peng, is Flamy leaving again?"
"Yes," Gao Peng looked at Goldie's forced calm expression, like a parent comforting a hurt child. He pat the ground next to himself. Goldie sat to Gao Peng's right.
"Fire God Valley is better for Flamy's growth. There are people there to teach her. And besides…it's safer there," Gao Peng stated calmly as he looked at the scenery in the distance.
Goldie heard that the place was safer, so it didn't speak anymore.
Goldie often seems nonsensical, but it knows what's right and wrong on cardinal issues.
Goldie pouted, sitting in place like a silent gourd.
One man, one duck, two hands propping on the ground, two legs hanging in the air, no one spoke for a long time.
An unknown aura hung over Sky City.
Many residents of Sky City found the officials in the city weren't talkative today. Only the officials of Sky City knew about the Constellation infiltration.
Information was controlled, not released to the others below because it would only cause a commotion.
Even Da Zi, who was so mischievous, didn't go play today but stayed to train at the training grounds.
At night, Gao Peng summoned all the Familiars he had a Blood Contract with.
Looking around at his Familiars, Gao Peng said in a faint voice, "You probably know about the Constellation infiltration. Black Fog World is not in the range of infiltration yet, but if the war continues, it will spread here eventually."
"You are all my partners. I signed the Blood Contract with you, but I never treated you like pets. Today is the same."
Da Zi quietly scratched itself, Gao Peng seemed very serious today.
"Tomorrow, the Bi Fang Clan will leave. Because of Flamy, we have a good relationship with the Bi Fang Clan. Tomorrow, you may leave with Flamy and train in the Fire God Valley. You can return after your strengths have increased substantially," Gao Peng was about to continue when he was interrupted.
"Gao Yue Yue! I'm not leaving!!!" A round ball of fire fell from the sky.
Flamy ran over with its belly out.
She sat to Gao Peng's right with a slam, turning her neck to look at Gao Peng.
"I'm not leaving," Flamy said fiercely.
"You're all staying, how can I leave? I don't want to be a deserter!" Flamy was enraged.
"You're not a deserter," Gao Peng patted Flamy's belly, the warm feathers were soft and smooth.
"Listen to my analysis, go form a good relationship with the Bi Fang Clan, then when we're in danger we can ask you for help, right?" Gao Peng explained to Flamy.
"I know Gao Yue Yue is deceitful, so I won't listen to your analysis," Flamy humphed, raising her neck up high.
"It's an order," Gao Peng's brows were knitted, he said in a low voice, "Alright, we're leaving tomorrow. Goldie and Flamy, go for a walk."
Goldie chuckled and ran off with Flamy in its arms.
Flamy struggled to no effect.
"You baldy, let go of me…." Flamy's voice got lower and lower.
"Okay, let's continue where I left off." Gao Peng cleared his throat.
"I'm not leaving. I'll follow you wherever you go!" Da Zi was impatient to express itself, pouncing on Gao Peng like a husky.
Silly slowly took out a bottle of the newest licorice-flavored juice from its space. It stuck a straw in the bottle and blew into it, glub glub glub~
After it stopped, the juice in the bottle gushed out of the straw because of the pressure.
"There's juice to drink with Gao Peng!" Silly was the second to express its opinion.
Dumby hugged its arms, leaning on a tree, saying with a raspy voice, "Protect the master."
Liuguang licked its blade, its expression serious, "I have to help Magical Brain evolve."
Magical Brain wasn't here right now. It just finished seizing the East Sea two days ago. Currently, it's seizing the Yellow Sea, Bo Sea, and working towards seizing the Pacific Ocean.
Dragon Cultivation Book's pages flipped….
Desolion, who was grooming itself, froze and coughed, promising it would stay and protect its master.
Dragon Ant crouched on the ground, grabbing a handful of dirt on the ground, its eyes filled with frenzy when it heard Gao Peng's speech, "Master, are we going to fight?"
Gao Peng nodded. He wasn't the passive type.
Two great forces engaging in war is a disaster, but also an opportunity.
Such a big disaster would have countless bodies for him to pick up.
Dragon Ant's expression changed, saying naively, "I become stronger by eating dragon meat."
The Familiars were used to this scene.
Dragon Ant's body hosts seven consciousnesses, which often switch. One minute Elder Baby is talking to you, and the next minute it's Third Baby.
Gao Peng licked his dry lips, getting a warm feeling in his heart.
The next morning, Flamy walked with Goldie in a daze. Gao Peng stood in front of them.
Seeing Gao Peng again, unsure how Goldie convinced her, Flamy didn't talk anymore about staying, just stared at Gao Peng with bitter eyes.
"For you, eat it. Don't let the other people in the Bi Fang clan see it." Gao Peng gave Flamy a scarlet crystal.
The three Quasi Gods' corpses they brought back were decomposed overnight. Inferno Tyrant's corpse had the great fortune of getting a fire special characteristic crystal.
Flamy's eyes got red.
"Alright, it's not like we're parting forever, you're just going to train for a while," Gao Peng said cooly.
Nine-thirty in the morning, the Bi Fang Clan left. Red clouds covered 3000 kilometers of the sky.

Chapter 795: I'm a Wandering Mercenary
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Packing up his things, Gao Peng issued the necessary orders.
Dumby left behind the Amorphic Hell Tree on its right hand.
Amorphic Hell Tree was planted on a mountain.
After it was planted, Amorphic Hell Tree sprouted madly. Everything within a ten-kilometer radius became a ghost region.
Dense thunder clouds covered the sky above Amorphic Hell Tree. Beneath the dark thunder clouds, Amorphic Tree that was white as bones expanded continuously.
Ever since Dumby broke through God Tier, Amorphic Hell Tree's level fed off Dumby and promoted to Quasi God.
Because it's been in Dumby's shadow, Amorphic Hell Tree's existence was never significant.
After Dumby leaves, Amorphic Hell Tree will be able to showcase its grandeur.
On the windowsill, Ji Hanwu gazed at Amorphic Hell Tree, growing on the mountain. He had a lost expression, and his eyes were unfocused.
He doesn't know when it started, that he's been protected by his grandson.
This feeling…made his proud self somewhat defeated.
"Ang." White Dragon shrank to the size of an ordinary python, coiling in the room and rubbing its head against Ji Hanwu's shoulder.
Ji Hanwu made a decision, and he stroked White Dragon's head gently.
White Dragon's eyes narrowed, comforted by the gesture.
"You're leaving." In the vanity space, an invisible net seemed to appear. In the depths of the net, a colossal monster crawled, its eight emerald pupils staring at Fatty Big Sea, who was lying on the ground like a dead fish.
"Yeah, this trip might take a while."
"…When are you coming back?"
"Who knows?" Fatty Big Sea said cooly, "With any luck, a couple of months. Otherwise…you dislike me anyway. You'll never have to see my annoying face again."
Windstorm Water Magic Spider's glare grew cold.
"Then die out there."
Ripples glimmered in the vanity space, and then Windstorm Water Magic Spider vanished into the air.
Fatty Big Sea lay on the ground, its tail tapping the ground constantly.
A long while later, a bitter smile crept onto Fatty Big Sea's face.
Forget me. It's better.
I was never a good father.
In the sky above the East Sea, a giant red and white seagull circled the air, carrying a package in its claws.
After circling thrice, it threw the package into the sea.
The moment the package hit the sea, a big hand rose out of the water to grab it.
A waterman stood up from the sea.
It opened the package and the envelope inside.
Magical Brain's water puppet read the letter quickly.
Then mumbled to itself in a low voice.
"Rest assured, master, I'll definitely carry out your orders."
In Sky City, Gao Peng finished packing his things. The room had the same setup as Gao Peng's room in Chang'an.
Each piece of furniture here was transferred from the old house in Chang'an.
Pushing open the bedroom door, Gao Peng walked to his parents' photo frame, then fell silent for a long time.
"I'm leaving."
Thump thump thump.
A knocking sound came from outside.
Gao Peng turned around.
The room he lives in is a single mansion. Only very few people are allowed to come in. Whoever's knocking is probably a familiar person.
Opening the front door, an unexpected person stood outside.
Gao Peng went blank for a bit, then asked, "Why is it you?"
"Am I unwelcome?" Karen Chen rolled her eyes.
"I heard Great-Uncle say you might be leaving for a long time, so I came to see you."
"You're making it seem like a permanent parting," Gao Peng chuckled.
"I'm afraid you might not come back," Karen Chen rolled her eyes.
"How can you talk about your big brother like that? Brat, you've become so conceited after getting the title of Mother of the Heavenly Chart," Gao Peng sneered.
"You!" Karen Chen got mad.
Why would a girl in her twenties like the title of "Mother of the Heavenly Chart."
"Alright, alright, I'm leaving. You're a big girl now, marry soon and have a chubby child."
Gao Peng was all set for his trip.
Sky City's safety is ensured by Windstorm Water Magic Spider, Amorphic Hell Tree, and Eternal Evergreen Bird. Most importantly, Eternal Evergreen Bird.
Its safety was guaranteed.
In the eastern region of the Surface Sea, Constellation's infiltration was reaching its climax.
Not only Constellation, but many nearby forces also found out about Constellation's infiltration of the Surface Sea.
In a short time, three Gods fell.
These three Gods were from the same world.
Stepping out of the spatial rift, a ball of raging fire flashed across them.
Gao Peng didn't have to do anything. A fierce fist smashed the ball of fire.
"Little kid, don't spit fire randomly," Gao Peng said with a smile as he halted Goldie's swinging fist.
A black and red Lava Dragon glanced at Gao Peng in fear, then turned around and backed off slowly, fleeing into the distance.
"Catch it."
Goldie charged up and grabbed the Lava Dragon, and tugged its tail back.
Boom.
Lava Dragon smashed into the ground.
"I have no malice, I'm not a bad guy," Gao Peng said gently, "Do you understand?"
Lava Dragon turned around and looked at its tail, nodding silently.
I understand.
"I'm looking for an entity with authority in this world. I'm a wandering mercenary, I'm here to help you," said Gao Peng.
A wandering mercenary?
Lava Dragon was puzzled, what's that?
"Wandering mercenary." A thousand-meter tall, mountain peak-sized Doomsday Volcano Dragon bent its neck and said, "Human, I don't know what a mercenary is, tell me your intentions."
You don't know what a mercenary is, that's troublesome. It seems like the Surface Sea doesn't have mercenaries.
"A mercenary is a helper, but we help for a price since we're helping with our lives on the line," said Gao Peng.
Doomsday Volcano Dragon thought for a second, "That's fair."
"Then– what do you need?" asked Doomsday Volcano Dragon.
A big volcano was toiling on Doomsday Volcano Dragon's back, the volcanic ashes spouting out of the volcano gathered into thunderclouds in the sky.
Gao Peng looked around at the dragon clans around. This plane had many dragon clan monsters. "I need the meat of your dragon clans, meat with enough weight."
His voice fell.
Gao Peng felt many unfriendly gazed directed at himself.
Gao Peng was prepared when he made this demand, but he believed these dragon clans would definitely agree in the end.
These dragon clans are greedy by nature. If you ask for treasures, it's hard to get any high tier treasures from their hands.
Might as well just ask them for meat.
Meat can grow out again if you rest well.
A little meat is nothing to these vital and gigantic creatures.
"You want our meat?" Doomsday Volcano Dragon was infuriated.
This human made such an evil demand.
"How about this, let's split it up. There are quite a few dragons here, just a little bit of meat from each dragon," Gao Peng said with a smile.
Dumby released its God Tier aura in a timely manner.
The dragons present got jittery.
In the end, Gao Peng got quite a large amount of dragon meat, 19 clans in total.
Report chapter
After putting away the 19 different types of dragon meat, Gao Peng summoned Dragon Ant.
First, he handed the Soil Traveling Mud Dragon's meat to Dragon Ant, the Soil Traveling Mud Dragon's meat was yellowish and mushy like a puddle of mud.
There were even some red blood streaks in it, like red earthworms tossing in the mud.
From its appearance, the Soil Traveling Mud Dragon meat was quite strange.
But Dragon Ant was having a good time, chomping down with its head buried in the meat.
Ten minutes passed, half an hour passed, Dragon Ant didn't have any changes.
Rubbing its stomach, Dragon Ant glanced at Gao Peng, then lowered its head, looking rather guilty.
"It's okay, let's try the next type of meat," Gao Peng comforted Dragon Ant.
Dragon Ant's ability to inherit characteristics from eating dragon meat doesn't work 100% of the time in the first place.
Failure is normal.
The second type of dragon meat, the third type of dragon meat…
Dragon Ant swallowed one type after another of dragon meat.
Dragon Ant's passive effect never got triggered, meaning it never gained a new attribute. This has to do with quantity as well. There wasn't much of this dragon meat.
After swallowing the seventh type of dragon meat, Dragon Ant suddenly convulsed, kneeling to the ground with a thump.
The wings on Dragon Ant's back spread out, and its eyes glowed an eerie red.
It worked?!
Gao Peng was surprised, the dragon meat he just fed Dragon Ant was from Gloomy Horned Dragon, an Epic Grade dragon clan.
Dragon Ant's head slowly cracked open, and two pitch-black horns grew out of its skull.
A row of stats flashed across Gao Peng's eyes.
Dragon Ant's newly obtained special characteristic–
[Gloomy Horns] When Dragon Ant is in Gloomy Horned Dragon condition, Gloomy Horns will grow out of its forehead. It allows Dragon Ant to obtain additional Dark Element immunity, as well as increase Dragon Ant's speed in dark environments.
After eating all 19 types of dragon meat, Dragon Ant obtained three dragon clan conditions.
The other two were Blood Weeping Dragon and Buddha Emperor Dragon.
Blood Weeping Dragon has one special characteristic and Buddha Emperor Dragon has two special characteristics.
Blood Weeping Dragon's special characteristic is Blood-Drinking, which allows it to heal its injuries by drinking blood.
Buddha Emperor Dragon's special characteristics are Suppressive Prison and Iron Chains.
[Suppressive Prison] Buddha Emperor Dragon will cause additional damage to Dark-type monsters. The damage afflicted will affect the Dark monster's mobility.
[Iron Chains] After Buddha Emperor Dragon is injured, it will increase its defense. The defense is limited to physical and elemental defense, not including soul defense. This ability can be stacked a maximum of nine times.
These three dragon clans' abilities weren't strong and couldn't be used as aces. They could only be backup plans in specific situations.
Of course, asking for compensation from the natives of this world was only one part of Gao Peng's plan.
It was also to obtain a "legal" identity.
At least with this identity, Gao Peng won't be attacked by both sides on the battlefield.
Waiting for the two sides to break out into battle and then fishing in the muddied waters is possible in theory.
But this method demands great strength. Only when your strength is at the top of both sides could you enter the battlefield and escape.
The other monsters aren't idiots. When a third party enemy appears on the field, their first reaction would be to join hands to attack the third party, which they don't know the intentions of.
Only by entering the battlefield as a mercenary can Gao Peng more directly observe the mysterious Constellation.
Gao Peng found the monsters in Constellation all had Star or Yin attributes. Although there were exceptions, they were very rare.
"When are you going to act? You've been observing for an entire day!" Doomsday Volcano Dragon, who had shrunk down many times, said angrily as it stood by Gao Peng's side.
"No rush, if I act now I can only catch some small fish. Don't you want to catch a big one?" Gao Peng said with a smile.
"Hmph." the Doomsday Volcano Dragon scoffed, "That better be the case."
"Their Gods still haven't appeared?" Gao Peng muttered, "That shouldn't be unless they're scheming something?"
On the battlefield ahead, countless monsters flew out of the rift in the sky.
The one charging in front was a monster that was silver all over with a pair of wings that looked like a water snake.
These monsters were the greatest in quantity, making up nearly 50% of Constellation's force. Their tiers varied from Leader Tier to Overlord Tier.
[Monster Name] Star Dark Snake
[Monster Tier] Level 21-80
[Monster Grade] Normal Grade (Excellent Grade) (Perfect Grade) (Epic Grade)
[Monster Attributes] Star
[Monster Ability] Stellar Power Storage Stellar Power Control
[Special Characteristic] Galaxy Tides (When enough Star Dark Snake are located in the same region, it evokes the consonance of Galaxy Tides.
Effect 1. Passive Effect: Galaxy Tides will spread out with the Star Dark Snake group at the center, changing the surrounding environment.
Effect 2. Passive Effect: Star type monsters will receive a power boost in the Galaxy Tides, non-Star type monsters will be suppressed by the Galaxy Tides.
[Monster Weakness] Star Dark Snakes have white scales three inches below their jaws. Attacking the scales here will cause the Star Dark Snake to lose their mobility.
[Monster Description] A type of monster located in the Tyrant Galaxy. Like to act on instinct, like to stay in places where the Power of Stars is dense, dislike the heat.
After reading the description of the special characteristics, Gao Peng carefully observed and noticed a subtle layer of silvery-white ripples spreading out in the air. That must be Galaxy Tides.
Right as Gao Peng was thinking, a strong aura suddenly rose behind the rift.
Then Gao Peng saw a sharp spear piercing the vanity space.
Boom!
As if the galaxy was backrolling, a dazzling silvery white galaxy penetrated the battlefield.
Its horrifying repercussions tore apart countless monsters in the perimeter, clearing out a large area.
It's here.
Gao Peng narrowed his eyes.
"The great Galaxy Spear is here!" A booming voice rang out from the fading clouds of dust.
"Woowoowoo~."
"Roar roar roar~."
The monsters on the Constellation side roared with effort.
When all the dust cleared away, a 1.5-meter-tall humanoid monster that crouched on the ground its hindlegs and propped on the ground with its forelegs swept the space in front of it with a cold gaze.
Its gaze was sharp as a blade.
It wore a helmet that covered more than half of its face, and its silver pupils gleamed under the mask.
Two long spears that looked like they were made of aurora were stuck behind its back.
A silvery-white thick-billed parrot stood on this monster's shoulder.
The parrot took a deep breath, then yelled loudly, "The great Galaxy Spear is here!"
The humanoid monster stood up straight and crossed its arms, raising its chin to look ahead with scorn.
"Liuguang, is this your brother?" Goldie exclaimed.
Liuguang's face fell.
"This height, this body size, this gaze…what a resemblance," Goldie was overwhelmed.
"That's the one who heavily injured Ghost Lamp Fish on the battlefield seven days ago," Doomsday Volcano Dragon's puppet said with a low voice.
If not for two other Gods trying their hardest to save Ghost Lamp Fish, this thing would have slaughtered its first God.
Recalling the battle from that day, a hint of fear flashed across Doomsday Volcano Dragon's eyes.
"You guys go first, don't get too excited. Do you want to make it go away or to make it stay? If you want it to stay, then you have to listen to me," said Gao Peng, "It knows about your abilities, but if an unfamiliar face appears it would only become more alert, so we must kill it in one shot!"
Dumby patted Doomsday Volcano Dragon's puppet's shoulder.
Doomsday Volcano Dragon thought for a bit, then nodded gravely.
"I hope you're not lying to me. Otherwise, I'll let you know how petty a dragon can be."

Chapter 797: Slaying God
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The monsters on both sides of the battlefields backed up, leaving space for the bosses to fight.
Accompanied by a dragon cry, a shadow cast over the sky.
A giant scarlet dragon spread its wings to embrace the entire sky under its span.
It exhaled scorching air, its wings danced, and raised cyclones.
At almost the same moment, the ground beneath Galaxy Spear's feet protruded upwards. The soil broke up, sharp thorns pierced through the soil.
With a rumble, the ground tore open, shaking the earth.
"Lava Rule: Doomsday Calamity."
"Earth Rule: Earth-Dragon Rolling"
Two rules exploded at the same time.
Boom boom boom–
A red glow dyed the sky, the volcano on Doomsday Volcano Dragon's back gave off a brilliant red light.
A meteor that glowed red drew a long tail and fell in the direction of Galaxy Spear.
At the same time, the earth quaked, a rift opened in the ground where a massive Soil Dragon Apparition tumbled out. On its tail was a continent apparition. With a swing of its tail, the continent apparition gradually magnified.
A horrifying gravity pressed crushed the vanity space, cracks spread outwards.
Galaxy Spear took half a step forward with its right leg, the spear in its right hand rotating with the movement of its wrist, a silver shadow dancing along.
It pressed down the spear in its left hand, the point of the spear pierced the soil. Formless ripples spread outward, the ground within a 10-meter radius of the spear point caved downward.
"Dumby, when you act, you must kill in one shot, don't give it a chance to retaliate." Galaxy Spear's attributes loaded in Gao Peng's eyes, he became very serious after seeing its attributes.
No wonder they lost three against one last week, this Galaxy Spear's grade is very high, and its special characteristics aren't simple either.
Galaxy Spear's left hand shook, the spear picked open the ground, then drew a semicircle in the air. The spear in its hand turned into an arc-shaped silvery-white round shield guarding it.
The Soil Dragon Apparition crashed into the round shield with the continent apparition. No explosion shook the earth and heavens, and the earth dragon merged perfectly into the round spear.
A lively Soil Dragon tattoo appeared on the silvery-white round shield.
[Monster Name] Galaxy Spear – Confounding Destroyer
[Monster Tier] Elementary God
[Monster Attribute] Star
[Control of Rule] Starlight Rule 6.6% Combat Rule 8.2%
[Monster Grade] Eternal Grade
[Monster Weakness] Single defense method.
[Special Characteristic] Spear-Shield. Galaxy Spear naturally has two star spears. The spears have two forms. They can switch between spear and shield.
In spear form, it has an additional armor-piercing effect, able to damage the enemy's body.
Effect 1. Active Effect: In spear form, Galaxy Spear can accumulate strength to make its next attack more lethal; it can collect a maximum of five times of explosive power.
Effect 2. Active Effect: In shield form, it will automatically activate this ability, allowing the Galaxy Shield to have an engulfment effect. It can engulf the enemy's next attack and store it in the Galaxy Shield, able to release that attack at any time, but the released attack is only 80% as strong as the original attack. Using this ability depletes the Star Shield's strength, it cannot be used multiple times within a short period.
Galaxy Chains (Elemental Chains that were born with the Galaxy Spear, can track and lock in enemies.)
Effect 1. Passive Effect: Galaxy Spear will automatically condense Galaxy Chains in its body; it can also use its power to condense Galaxy Chains quickly. The rigidity of the Galaxy Chains is related to Galaxy Spear's control over Starlight Rule.
Effect 2. Active Effect: Galaxy Spear can toss out the Galaxy Chains, and the Galaxy Chains will automatically track the nearest unit. The unit bound by Galaxy Chains will be damaged by the burn of the Power of Stars, and it has a particular repressive effect on Rules. Its specific effect varies according to the enemy's control overrule.)
War Potential (Galaxy Spear is a monster born for war by the Tyrant Galaxy; its unique talent allows it to grow stronger in battle continually.
Effect 1. Passive Effect: After each victory, Galaxy Spear can obtain a certain amount of power feedback.
Effect 2. Passive Effect: Because Galaxy Spear has already broken through God, after each victory, Galaxy Spear will obtain a certain level of understanding of Combat Rule according to its opponent's strength.)
[Monster Description] A monster born for war, it can continually grow stronger in battle. Enjoys fighting against strong opponents, dislikes the scent of black pomegranates.
Powerful abilities, it can assume the role of forward in any Familiar team.
Unfortunately, Goldie's tier is too much lower than Galaxy Spear. If Goldie were on the same tier, Gao Peng would like to see what would happen if Goldie fought against it.
Galaxy Spear's spears can damage the opponent's body and has an additional armor-piercing effect, which means that Goldie's activated strengthened defense has no effect on it.
But Goldie's passive effect can increase its speed and strength, so you really can't tell what would happen without them actually fighting.
Just as Gao Peng was contemplating, the battle was reaching its climax.
Galaxy Spear held the shield in its left hand and the spear in its right, the spear crushed all the Fire Meteors heading towards it.
But these Fire Meteors weren't purely physical, more like an aggregate of elements. After the Fire Meteors were shattered, they created shocks that beat back Galaxy Spear.
The ground behind broke up, and a giant magenta silhouette shot out from beneath its feet.
"Earth Torrent, Master of Earth Dragon."
Master of Earth Dragon's colossal body moved faster than a high-speed train.
It appeared in front of Galaxy Spear in an instant.
Galaxy Spear grunted, and golden light flashed from head to toe. With the blessing of Combat Rule, its strength and speed increased sharply.
Starlight Rule blossomed all over, shooting towards the sky like a meteor shower to halt the Fire Meteors. Starlight Rule collided with Lava Rule, resulting in a stalemate.
At the same time, with a sharp 90-degree turn, Galaxy Spear slammed the Galaxy Shield in its left hand, and the Soil Dragon Apparition flew out and attacked Master of Earth Dragon off guard.
The spear in its right hand that had been accumulating power, shot out!
Puchi!
Blood spewed everywhere.
The spear stabbed into Master of Earth Dragon's right eye.
"King of Robotics, Dumby." Gao Peng clenched his fist, now's the time!
At this moment, the shield in Galaxy Spear's left hand just activated retaliation, it cannot be used again for a while. The spear in its right hand is stuck in Master of Earth Dragon's eye, and Starlight Rule was focused on countering Doomsday Volcano Dragon's Lava Rule.
With a flash, a tall silhouette appeared before Galaxy Spear.
King of Robotics's five-meter tall body was already a giant compared to Galaxy Spear.
Raising both its arms, a Robotic Divine Fist Apparition floated in the area above the arms, then slammed down heavily.
"I've been waiting for you," Galaxy Spear scoffed. Combat Rule has gifted it with a better sense of danger, so it knew there were enemies hiding in the shadows all along.
So it's been prepared all this time.
It released the Galaxy Shield in its left hand, clenching together its six fingers, a blinding silver light appeared in its palm.
"Go!"
Its wrist trembled, silver light formed a long rope that wrapped around King of Robotics.
King of Robotics only felt a copious strength stopping its arms from falling down.
A silvery-white chain full of white light spots bound King of Robotics, repressing its power at the same time.
"Let's see who can save you now!" Galaxy Spear didn't hesitate at all, putting force with its right hand, the spear grew longer, and was about to press in heavily.
Injuring all of a man's fingers is not as effective as chopping off one!
"Ow~" a terrified howl rang from Master of Earth Dragon's mouth, it truly felt the threat of death.
On the brink of death, Master of Earth Dragon didn't fear. Rather, it was provoked. The muscles around its eye stirred, entangling the spear-like countless fine metal wires. For a second, the spear was stuck in the eye socket and could not be pulled out.
Galaxy Spear's heart skipped a beat, an extreme sense of danger swept its entire body.
Oh no–
It's too late now.
Thump!!!
Galaxy Spear's head shook, a savage Soul Impact Wave tore its brain, even its consciousness fell into a short period of confusion.
"Death Rule: Terminating Finger."
A black finger shrouded in endless Air of Death pointed between Galaxy Spear's brows.
The thick armor between its brows had no defensive power at this moment.
The finger easily tore a muscle, inserting into the brain.
The period of confusion caused by the Soul Impact Wave had already passed, but the end was determined.
A vicious Air of Death spewed out from Galaxy Spear's orifices. Galaxy Spear opened its mouth, puffs of deathly black fog gushed out of its mouth.
It stumbled for two steps, and then Galaxy Spear knelt to the ground with a thump.
Vitality quickly drew out of its body.
Report chapter
With the fall of the Galaxy Spear, Dumby took a deep breath.
A wisp of gray mist was extracted from the body of the Galaxy Spear and then inhaled by Dumby, through his nose.
The Soul Precept on the God's altar shook slightly, absorbing a God-level spirit, providing Dumby with many benefits.
Subsequently, Dumby bent over and picked up the dead body of the Galaxy Spear.
The Apocalypse Volcano Dragon and the Lord of the Earth gathered around, their eyes staring at the dead body that Dumby was carrying.
"It's the Starlight rule. What you have are the Lava rule and Earth rule. Wouldn't it be useless to take his body?" Gao Peng came forward.
"…" the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon snorted. We had done our best just now. Apocalypse Volcano Dragon
It can't be that we get nothing.
With that thought, the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon's head shifted closer, and the wave of heat from its nostrils, which was bigger than a cave, blew on Gao Peng's face.
Dumby turned his head, and the soul flames within his empty eyes were burning.
The Death rule at its fingertips quietly coagulated.
"Ah ha ha ha, of course, it's yours." The Apocalypse Volcano Dragon suddenly lifted his head and laughed twice dryly.
Although the dead body of a God is precious, it would not want to risk its life to fight for it.
With the death of the Galaxy Spear, the rest of the constellation monsters clan were suddenly without a leader, and the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon would take his anger out on these monsters.
When taking away the body of the Galaxy Spear, Gao Peng also took all the familiars away from the battlefield.
Although quasi God had some value, it was not worth much compared with the corpse of the God.
Even if you wanted the meat, you should let others have some soup.
Each God has its own authentic artifact, and the Galaxy Spear was no different. However, the divine artifact of Galaxy Spear was different from the general artifacts. It was a more peculiar element artifact.
This divine artifact was three feet and six inches long. It looked like a piece of auspicious white jade.
This auspicious jade was very shiny, and its appearance was surrounded by a light white fog.
Dumby lifted the divine artifact, with a flick, the white jade artifact transformed into an ever-changing milky holy light. With a move within his mind, the 'Transformation' in his hand became a spear, a shift in his mind, and a pure white enchanted sickle.
[Artifact name] Transformation
[Precept content] Aurora rule 1.2%
The precept content of this item was pitiful. The Galaxy Spear should be a poor God.
In the battle just now, one could see that the battle power of the Galaxy Spear compared to those of the same level, was very strong. Generally speaking, the strength represented wealth. Unless the Galaxy Spear had only been recently promoted to god level and there was no time to nurture the divine artifact.
Dumby played with Transformation for a while then handed it out.
This divine artifact was too weak to interest Dumby.
At only 1.2% of the Aurora's rule, this was not even a match to the White Skeleton Precept that Dumby could condense using the White Bone soldiers. Moreover, the White Skeleton Precept now had a mastery level of 3.2%, which was nearly three times that of Transformation.
"Who do you want?" Gao Peng took over Transformation. Its weight was almost negligible. It was even lighter than that of cotton of the same volume.
Swish Swash.
A row of little claws rosed.
"Gao Peng, Am I not your little Darling," Da Zi tearfully said, his small claws touch the corner of the eye to swipe off non-existent tears.
"Flowing Light, you already have a divine artifact. Why are you fighting with me?" Da Zi righteously scolded Flowing Light.
The fingers were almost jabbing Floating Light's forehead.
Floating Lights rolled his eyes, took two looks at Da Zi, then quietly exited.
Da Zi happily lifted the edges of his mouth.
With the exception of the three strong enemies, Dumby, Goldie, and Da Zi, there were four other competitors of Silly, Dragon Ant, Desolion, and White Clam.
Da Zi suddenly looked towards a small figure at the end.
The palm-sized White Clam opened its shell and spat out a large colorful bubble.
The colorful bubbles transformed into various patterns, including squares, columns, and hexagon stars.
"How old are you? Divine artifacts are for big kids like us. Little children Kids like you should be drinking juice," Da Zi said seriously. "You wouldn't be able to use an artifact even if it was given to you."
Silly, who was holding on to a glass of juice and eating a melon, thought that he was being targeted even though he did nothing.
Silly threw a mild tantrum and exerted the power of space.
There was a ripple and flash. Space shifted.
Da Zi and Desolion, who was standing to Da Zi's left, were covered with the power of space and disappeared in place.
When the cold wind blew, the dragon ant blinked.
Three hundred miles away, Desolion and Da Zi faced each other.
Compared to Da Zi, Desolion was completely dejected. I didn't say anything. I didn't do anything. Why must I suffer bad luck with him?
Silly looked at his work of art, this… seemed to be pretty good?
"Silly, what have you done." Gao Peng frowned and reprimanded him.
Silly was alert. He obediently hid the glass bottle in his hand, kept all his feelers in his back, turned around, and looked serious.
"This artifact, you shouldn't be taking it," Gao Peng said softly.
Silly was secretly happy. He didn't like to fight. He didn't really need it. He merely wanted to enrich his small Treasury with this artifact. To think Gao Peng forgave me so easily.
At last, the Dragon Ant had the ownership of Transformation.
However, the transformation also complemented the Dragon Ant.
The Dragon Ant's ability was very changeable, and it had seven consciousness. Therefore, having an artifact with fixed restriction would not be as convenient as owning one like Transformation.
The body of the Galaxy Spear was handed to Dark Child to decompose.
Three hours later, the body had been broken down by Dark Child.
On the altar, there was only one dark golden crystal remaining on the altar.
The dark gold crystals had twenty-four sides, each with the same area.
There were spines on six sides of the crystal, at the top, the bottom, on the left, at the back.
With this crystal, the air was filled with a sweet scent.
Even Gao Peng could smell it.
Upon smelling the fragrance, Da Zi, Goldie, and the Dragon Ant got into a frenzy.
All of them turned their heads and stared at the crystal in Gao Peng's hand.
[Item name] Eternal crystal
[Item Description] The remaining perfect essence of the eternal grade monster when it had been completely decomposed. This contains an eternal secret.
"For Dumby," Gao Peng was quick to decide.
Dumby was the strongest and didn't fight for anything. Even those divine artifacts, Dumby had always given it up to its other partners.
Dumby received the eternal crystal. When the eternal crystal touched Dumby's fingertips, it turned into a golden light and integrated with Dumby's body.
Dumby's body trembled, and there were some changes in his body that could not be explained.
"Roar." In the distance, a Dragon's roar was heard, and the huge body of the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon appeared in the sky.
Apocalypse Volcano Dragon landed on the ground, scanning around doubtfully and observing, staring with its big eyes the houses nearby.
"Isn't it still wartime, what are you doing here?" asked Gao Peng.
The Apocalypse Volcano Dragon said nothing, and finally, his eyes were locked on the abnormal state of Dumby.
Something strange flashed in its eyes.
The Apocalypse Volcano Dragon quietly commended himself for identifying something good here, but it was just that it had been taken by this skeletal being.
"I saw a few constellation monsters flying by just now, so I thought, I'll have a look," the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon said. After saying that, he took a side glance at the King of Robotics, and flew off with an unwilling heart.

Gao Peng watched the departing back view of the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon. Fortunately, there was the King of Robotics guarding it against the sides.
Otherwise, that greedy dragon would never leave so easily.
Reminded of the King of Robotics, Gao Peng turned to look at him and found his eyes closed, with his back facing them. He seemed to have noticed nothing.
With time, Dumby's evolution took two days.
In the past two days, Gao Peng saw with his own eyes how a cocoon wrapped Dumby. A thin black silk thread emerged on the surface of Dumby's body and then wound into a cocoon wrapping him up.
Just like that, Dumby turned into a big black egg.
Two days later, the big black egg cracked, and Dumby woke up from his deep sleep.
After waking up, Dumby had an indefinable change in his temperament.
There was not much change in appearance and form compared to his pre-evolution, and this change was more in temperament.
"Dumby has broken through eternal grade?" Da Zi said enviously.
Gao Peng squinted at Dumby for a long time, then nodded, "Dumby has broken through eternal."
[Monster Name] Death Master
[Monster Level] Elementary God
[Control of Rule] death Rule 5% Soul precept 3.4% Ghoul Precept
3% White Skeleton Precept 3.2%
[Monster Grade] eternal grade
[Special Characteristics]
Heart of the Yin Soul (omitted) (state of switching)
Ghoul Flame (omitted) (resurrecting the dead)
Death Soul (the Death soul transformed from the extreme yin soul).
[Passive Effect] All dead life within a certain area to the host can be swallowed by the host. The soul will be refined into pure soul essence to strengthen the host's soul.
The flame in Dumby's eyes turned pure gold, and powerful waves of terror were released outward.
The number of monster characteristics of the eternal and mythical grade was equal.
The only difference between eternal and mythical grade was that the grade level of eternal grade would never decline.
For Gao Peng, a middle-class agent with limited assets, it was a poor deal.
But Gao Peng was not stingy with his materials.
However, when Dumby truly broke through to eternity grade, Gao Peng realized that his thinking was wrong.
Unlike Fatty Big Sea, which has not yet fully recovered to its eternal quality, Dumby was the true blue eternity peak.
The improvement to eternal grade brought an indescribable change to Dumby.
Aside from the monster's extremely Yin body evolving into the Death Soul, there was an overall growth in power.
It was similar to when it broke through from the legendary grade to the mythical quality when all strength in the body gained an all-around surge.
Besides…
"Master, I can understand the rule faster," said Dumby in a deep voice.
Gao Peng's eyes brightened, and his talent had improved.
On the other side, the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon cleaned up the battlefield.
Due to the fall of the Galaxy Spear, the invasion of the world on the other side of the space channel had been suspended.
Even though it was the constellation clan, it couldn't provide more power to support the battle in a short time.
This time, the invading star cluster was out to take action, and each small plane world had sent corresponding strong opponents.
And according to early information, the Galaxy Spear could singlehandedly take the three worlds down.
"I'm ready to go, old earthworm. Would you like to go with me?" Apocalypse Volcano Dragon bent down and stamped his feet.
After a long time, from deep in the earth came a murky voice, "you go ahead."
"Will you stay and die?" Apocalypse Volcano Dragon shook his head,
Although they managed to beat back a wave of enemy invasion.
But the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon was very clear that the victory had a lot to do with that despicable human being.
If it was not because of him, with between him and the old earthworm, they wouldn't have beaten that dwarf.
Moreover, they only destroyed a small part of the behemoth constellation attack.
This time there was the cunning human mercenary. What about the next time?
The upcoming counterattack would only be more terrifying.
So the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon thought of leaving.
The world was so big. It should be easy to find a shelter.
"You go." Said the Lord of the Earth.
For the Lord of the Earth, the invasion by the constellation would surely fail.
Besides, if one of the two gods died, but the other escaped, the world would not entirely fall into its control.
It even hoped that the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon would never return.
Apocalypse Volcano Dragon shook his head and turned to leave.
Which way should I go?
The Apocalypse Volcano Dragon thought to itself.
Wars have broken out nearby. No matter where one went, one would be affected by the war. It might as well run further away! Escape to the edge of the surface sea, which was close to Jiutian Shidi. The constellation should not expand in that direction for the time being.
Having made up his mind, the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon set out overnight.
On a regular day, it couldn't have been so easy to get the body of the God!
Because generally speaking, gods have their own small circle, to touch one God would be to antagonize a group of Gods.
Of course, the exception would be Fatty Big Fish, who was annihilated before it could manage its own small circle.
These gods have a long life, in their long lifespan, other than cultivating themselves, they move around.
And the god's body was filled with treasures. The most precious thing for each God would be their divine artifact.
They will be an easy target if they don't unite as a group.
But during this special period of constellation invasion, things were different.
At this crucial period, unless you are a god made of plastic, otherwise, who would have time to care about the other gods.
Gao Peng educated his group of familiars, "we will continue to move deeper. But remember our purpose. We are just here to help."
All the familiars nodded.
"By the way, I haven't had time to ask the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon for information about other worlds nearby," Gao Peng rubbed his forehead in frustration.
When Gao Peng found the old nest of Apocalypse Volcano Dragon, they only saw an abandoned sinkhole.
"It left without taking its stuff?" Gao Peng was speechless.
The heavenly sinkhole was a mess, and things were scattered on the ground.
This was a God's nest, and ordinary monsters would not dare to mess up such a large thing.
So this mess was made by the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon himself.
He left in such haste…
"It's Ok. There's another one," Gao Peng turned around.
By asking the local quasi gods, it was easy to find out where the Lord of the Earth lived.
At first, the Lord of the Earth thought that Gao Peng was coming to fight him over the control of the world.
It was relieved when it learned that Gao Peng was just asking for information.
In a bid to get this human to leave, it hurriedly shared everything it knew in a single breath.
After listening to the Lord of the Earth's narration, Gao Peng was thoughtful. He had thought that the Surface Sea would be on the losing end, but unexpectedly, they had great potential.
No wonder the Lord of the Earth was unwilling to leave and believed that the surface sea would win.
"By the way, since I have helped you so much, would there be any reward?" Gao Peng said shyly.
The Lord of the Earth was stunned. "Didn't the Apocalypse Volcano Dragon pay you?"
"As you rightly mentioned, it was another who has paid. You haven't paid yet." Gao Peng said seriously.
Was there anyone who could help kill this despicable human being?
The Lord of the Earth was very oppressed.
Although the reward was paid by Apocalypse Volcano Dragon, it had also given some compensation to Apocalypse Volcano Dragon after that.
No wonder that old dragon left so quickly. This was the reason!
The Lord of the Earth forced a smile, "I don't have much treasure, what else do you need? "
"Soul Snatching Gold, and Dead Soul Jade," Gao Peng said.
Both the Soul Snatching Gold and Dead Soul Jade were the primary materials for making the Dumby's divine artifact.
And both of these materials are found underground, so it was likely for the Lord of the Earth to have both materials.
The Lord of the Earth did have these two materials, but it didn't have much. They were precious materials that he used to exchange with other gods, so it was distressing.
But Gao Peng's demands were not overboard.
This material could not be used independently, and its divine artifact did not need these materials.
The Lord of the Earth plunged into the ground.
After a while, the ground broke open, a piece of gold and a piece of black material emerged from the ground.
Nothing else appeared.
The Lord of the Earth had disappeared.
It just wanted the cursed man to leave soon.
Through the Lord of the Earth, Gao Peng had received the information he wanted – the distribution of nearby powers.
The surface sea was very large. Even the Lord of the Earth did not know how large the potential sea area was.
But it knew the power distribution of the surface sea.
The location of this area was fought among three gods.
Deep Ocean Divine system, Nature Divine system, and undead Divine system.
In the past, the three gods fought against each other, but now since they were facing a common enemy… The three gods had abandoned previous suspicions and cooperated.
The nearest was the Deep Ocean Divine system.
There was no supreme existence in the deep ocean divine system. They were similar to an alliance of beings.
There were three leaders in the deep ocean divine system.
They were the Extreme Abyss Devourer, Panic Instigator, and the Sea Storm Emperor.
The most powerful and mysterious of the three was the Panic Instigator.
It was said that it was a giant deep-sea beast on the surface sea. It had devoured the gods even when it was a quasi God, and later ruled the majority of the surface sea.
After that, its claws extended into the nearby planes. It was unknown how many planes had been harmed, but its enemies were terrified of it.
This was how it derived its name, Panic Instigator.
These were all open news. The Lord of the Earth was aware of another piece of news. There were as many as five planes controlled by the Panic Instigator!
Its power seemed to be not limited to the sea. It was known to control the Fear rule and the Ocean rule, as well as the Cruelty rule.
The Nature Divine system was different from the Deep Ocean Divine system in its three leaders' operation. It had a supreme leader, named Strength Supreme.
Strength Supreme's body was an immeasurable Vajra tree with copper skin and iron bone, and its strength was infinite.
When the Lord of the Earth spoke of Strength Supreme, it had aspirations to flipping the soil Strength Supreme's roots.
The other Undead Divine system was the weakest, residing in a corner. Before the invasion of the constellation, the Undead Divine system was the one to be bullied.
As long as something was hard to judge happened, the Undead Divine system would be called in to evaluate the issue.
In the end, the Undead Divine system would inevitably offend one party, and after that, would be taught a lesson and taken advantage of.
Sometimes when things go wrong, the blame would be put on the Undead Divine system. What the truth was, it did not matter…
Just beat up the Undead Divine system for it.
And get more things from them along the way.
Then everyone's happy.
The current situation of the Undead Divine system was due to an undead being who led it 800,000 years ago. It led the Undead Divine system to its peak. The Undead Divine system, in its peak period, had a strong reputation in the surface sea.
Of course, the Lord of the Earth wasn't born yet.
So it didn't know exactly what happened, it just knew that there was a big commotion.
Gao Peng thought for a long time and decided to take a look at the Deep Ocean Divine system first.
Deep Ocean Divine system and Nature Divine system were used to being arrogant. They must be more competitive.
After so many years of working in the Undead Divine system, they should also be used to it… There was also nothing to benefit from it, so Gao Peng doesn't worry about it.
"Gao Peng, things are so fierce here."
Stepping out of the Spatial Tunnel, Goldie exclaimed.
This Spatial Tunnel was located on an island.
In the sky, not too far from the island were waves of fighting.
The fighting was very vicious.
All of a sudden, the water around the island fluctuated violently. The next moment, countless water droplets flew up into the sky.
It was as though heaven and earth swapped roles, and it was raining cats and dogs from the ground towards the sky.
The dense raindrops spread out wildly, one after another, blending as one.
In the billowing waves, a blue giant, with a height of one kilometer holding a trident in his hand, roared skywards and raised his trident in his hand.
Then the unparalleled blue light diffused from the halberd tip.
"Ocean rule – Sea Current Showers."
The sea was split, and countless weapons made of seawater flew to the sky.
In the sky, a silver Phoenix crowed, fluttering its wings, starlight shone all over from the sky, and bright stars appeared in the sky. A huge star projection slowly emerged above the silver Phoenix.
The projection of this star gradually grew bigger, and the silver starlight fell from the stars.
The sacred starlight allowed the precept power to clean up the filth of time.
It collided with the Ocean rule, the collision of the two laws led to unprecedented chaos fluctuations.
The world seemed to be in a disaster. A thousand feet of waves were surging.
Desolion spat out a cold breath and froze the huge waves that were about to engulf the island.
This power from a Quasi god did not attract the attention of the two beings in the distant battle.
Only powers from a god would alert them.
"I am invincible in the ocean!" The one-kilometer giant roared wildly and waved his arms. In the vanity space, a whirlpool of angry ocean rule formed, ready to tear apart the Phoenix in the sky.
A silver barrier appeared on the body of the Phoenix to counteract the whirlpool.
Suddenly the silver Phoenix opened its mouth and let out a silver light spot.
One kilometer giant carefully waved its trident, trying to break the silver spots.
Who knew, when this silver light spot was hit by Trident, it exploded.
All over the sky, the silver light thread spread and engulfed the giant.
"Not good," The now silver giant immediately reacted, but it was still a step too slow, the surrounding environment had changed.
The most important thing was that it could not feel the ocean!
As it said just now, as long as it was in the ocean, it was invincible.
It could always get endless power and support.
If you can't kill it quickly, its source of energy would continue to heal the wound.
Unless the whole ocean was boiled dry, or it was moved to an environment where there was no ocean.
And now… it could not feel the sea.
"You know the space rule." Sea Storm Emperor 's tone lowered, throughout the battle, it never revealed the fact that that knew a space move.
"You can't die in the ocean, but what about now?"
With a lowered tone, a terrifying presence emerged from behind.
