Chapter 105: Strange Ability

Zhou Yang's figure darted swiftly through the ancient forest.

Heh heh~~

When passing a centuries‑old tree large enough for dozens of people to embrace, a massive brown‑triangular head suddenly emerged and tried to swallow Zhou Yang in one bite.

Hmph!

While moving, Zhou Yang let out a cold snort, and his overwhelming Spiritual Thought Power formed into a sharp sword that thundered outward!

Boom!

It seemed as if invisible force burst instantly, shattering the attacker's soul into fragments.

The monster's corpse became limp and weak, falling along the trunk to the ground, revealing a brown‑spotted giant snake over three hundred meters long.

"Star Level Ninth Order Beast Withered Leaf Snake?"

In this world, cultivation ranks are divided into six realms: Awakening, Star, Silver Moon, Blazing Sun, World, and Ancient God.

They correspond exactly to the six stages from Planet Level to Immortal God in the main universe.

Just like this Star Level Ninth Order Withered Leaf Snake, its strength is equivalent to the external Stellar Level Ninth Order.

Zhou Yang's mind shifted, and he stored the spotted giant snake's corpse into his storage ring, his figure continuing onward.

This Ruins Ancient God Temple world is vast, comparable to a small galaxy.

Without clear information, seeking the never‑seen Ancient Divine Blood in such an expansive world is harder than climbing to the heavens.

Therefore, he now urgently needs to blend into the local natives to uncover some useful information.

He sped through the dense forest, and from time to time some Star Level beasts launched surprise attacks on him.

However, his current realm has already reached the Universe Level Ninth Order pinnacle, and with terrifying Spiritual Power and extremely high Law Perception, once unleashed, ordinary Domain Lord Level five or six would not even be his match.

These ambushing beasts quickly turned into a corpse inside his spatial ring.

As he kept moving forward, he gradually approached the edge of this ancient forest.

His overwhelming Spiritual Thought Power constantly scanned the surroundings, and he soon made a discovery.

Somewhere in the ancient forest, a party of about ten people was moving slowly.

The main members of the party were a group of half‑grown children, ranging from eight or nine to their teens.

Yet these seemingly very youthful half‑grown kids were each as robust as little calves.

Their knotted muscles bulged, making their beast‑skin cloaks puff out.

At the head of the party stood a middle‑aged man whose physique was as strong as a tiger or leopard.

He was bare‑armed, his bronze‑colored skin seeming to brew great power, his bright eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, radiating a mesmerizing glow.

"You're all hunting for the first time; remember you may only operate around Great Wushan. Before the ninth Awakening stage, you must never venture deep into Great Wushan!"

The leading middle‑aged man continued forward while instructing the group of youths.

"Understood, Zhu Zi Shu!"

The youths all responded in unison.

"Hmm, as long as you understand."

The middle‑aged man known as Zhu Zi Shu gave a slight nod, his gaze sweeping over the youths, pausing briefly on a noticeably frailer boy.

"You lot, take good care of the little one."

"We know, don't worry, Zhu Zi Shu!"

The half‑grown youths all nodded heavily, and the frail child under the middle‑aged man's gaze showed a grateful expression.

"Alright, keep moving forward."

The middle‑aged man called out, and the party continued deeper along the rugged mountain path.

Before long, they encountered a massive beast, dozens of meters tall, resembling a black bear.

"This is a fifth‑stage Awakening Bronze Claw Bear. Xiao Tian, Er Hu, you two go together!"

As the middle‑aged man's voice faded, the two sturdy youths, each like a little calf, suddenly sprang forward!

During the process, one boy's right leg emitted a hazy blue light, while the other's left hand was tinged with glaring red radiance.

One threw a punch, the other delivered a kick.

"Ha!"

With a loud shout, their left fist and right leg, cloaked in red radiance and blue light, swelled rapidly dozens of times.

The sight resembled a scene from a rubber‑man adventure novel Zhou Yang had read in a past life, where the protagonist activated a third‑level combat mode!

"Boom!"

The enlarged fists and feet struck simultaneously, and the towering Bronze Claw Bear roared, swinging its massive claws in defense.

Yet those fists and feet, wrapped in red radiance and blue light, seemed to contain incomparable might.

The Bronze Claw Bear, struck by the punch and kick, was blasted backward.

The two youths quickly followed, swinging their enlarged fists and feet to keep pounding.

The Bronze Claw Bear's painful roars kept echoing.

Soon after, the massive Bronze Claw Bear's skull was completely shattered, dead beyond death.

"Hmm, you two did well!"

The middle‑aged man nodded in encouragement.

The squad pressed on.

Along the way, they repeatedly encountered many more gigantic ferocious beasts.

The middle‑aged man dispatched the youths in turn to confront the beasts according to each situation.

These youths each seemed to possess their own special abilities.

Some could enlarge their limbs to unleash tremendous power, while others practiced the Seven Orifice Transformation, releasing a mysterious ability.

For example, one of the boys who looked only seven or eight years old had Gold Law Light blossoming in his eyes, and two Gold Law Swords materialized, instantly cutting a powerful Awakening six‑stage savage beast into several pieces.

Those massive savage beasts, each at least dozens of meters tall, appeared as weak as lambs before the boys of this squad.

A group of ten‑something‑year‑old boys howled and rushed forward, displaying various special abilities, and one massive savage beast after another was easily cut down by them.

"Huh, this looks a bit like the flesh‑body divine techniques I've seen in fantasy novels."

From the canopy of a giant tree ten‑something kilometers away from the squad, Zhou Yang, clad in beast‑skin armor, watched silently, his eyes sparkling.

In the world of Swallowed Star, a realm of technological cultivation, he saw a scene reminiscent of fantasy novels, which sparked his interest.

"A Star Level, accompanied by about ten Awakening‑level ones, poses no danger to me at all; I can go check it out."

He thought briefly, then his figure dropped straight down.

A moment later, at the spot where the squad was taking a temporary rest.

"Boom—boom—boom~~~"

The massive sound of a heavy object being dragged rang in everyone's ears.

A group of people, including the middle‑aged man, quickly looked up toward the distance!

In the distance on the road, a "small mountain" at least several hundred meters tall was slowly moving toward them.

As the "small mountain" moved, whole patches of surrounding trees were trampled down.

When the "small mountain" came close, the squad finally saw that the so‑called "small mountain" was actually the body of an incomparably huge savage beast!

The beast's body was several hundred meters tall, its surface bristling with massive, terrifying spikes that rose like giant swords pointing to the heavens.

"Sword, Saber‑toothed Dragon! A several‑hundred‑meter‑tall Saber‑toothed Dragon— that, that is a Star Level savage beast! Zhuzi Shu,"

The group of boys instantly showed panic on their faces, all quickly looking at the middle‑aged man.

The middle‑aged man was not overly flustered; with his sight, he had long seen that the Star Level Saber‑toothed Dragon was already a corpse.

At this moment, the massive Saber‑toothed Dragon corpse was being dragged by a tiny figure hundreds of times smaller than it, slowly walking toward them.

"Huh, someone!"

Soon the boys also noticed the figure in front of the huge Saber‑toothed Dragon body and couldn't help shouting in surprise.

"Heavens, a single person killed such a massive Star Level Saber‑toothed Dragon! What power does that person have!"

The boys were even more shocked.

"Zhuzi Shu, can you beat a Star Level Saber‑toothed Dragon?"

A boy asked.

"Don't move recklessly, and don't speak. Stay still!"

The middle‑aged man barked low.

The boys, halted by his command, dared not speak again and stood obediently in place.

Their gazes, however, involuntarily fell on the figure walking toward them, eyes full of awe and shock.

Soon, the massive Saber‑toothed Dragon corpse, like a "small mountain," was dragged to their front.

In front of the Saber‑toothed Dragon corpse, the youth clad in beast‑skin armor, bearing a jet‑black Long Spear on his back, smiled at them.
