Fensun World.

This is A World created by the Fensun World Lord "River," and according to information from the Virtual Universe Company, this world has a history of over 300,000 years.

"The gravitational pull is only eleven times that of Earth."

"The air is humid, and it is rainy all year round. Forests cover 74 percent of the world."

"And because of this special world environment, humans in the Fensun World are still in a primitive tribal social structure."

Lin Yan walked through the vast forest, feeling surprised. It was very different from the previous World Lord's World. In the Fensun World, it was impossible to tell that it was created by the Realm World Master of the Law of Light. Instead, it looked like the World Lord's World of the Wood Attribute.

Sudden--

He stopped and scanned his surroundings with sharp eyes.

Call!

A long, dark vine, like a black lightning bolt, suddenly appeared above his head, about to entangle him.

Whoosh! His combat boots lightly stepped on the decaying leaves, and in an instant, Lin Yan disappeared completely... The dark vines, having accomplished nothing, were about to retract.

A single golden ray silently bloomed!

Snap... The long, dark vine was severed.

Lin Yan looked at the dark vine in his hand. The surface of the vine looked very similar to tree bark. Blood dripped from the cut end. After the blood dried, it quickly became stiff, as if it were just a dead tree.

Clear information appeared on the screen of the left arm guard:

"Blood Sucking Vine (Adult): Stellar level 7"

There are also a large number of ferocious beasts in the Fensun World, but at the top of the food chain is neither humans nor ferocious beasts, but the strange Plant Lifeform in his hand.

This strange Plant Lifeform is hidden in many corners of the forest. If it does not move, it is similar to an ordinary tree. In fact, if it is Cosmic level Blood Sucking Vine, it can directly disguise itself as a large tree.

Therefore, it is the most terrifying Hunter in the jungle. Fortunately, it is not too aggressive, but it has a strong sense of territory.

Humans in the Fensun World once organized a campaign to Blood Sucking Vine, but were instead attracted by a large number of Blood Sucking Vine, resulting in heavy casualties. After that, they could only designate the areas where the Blood Sucking Vine appeared as forbidden zones and dared not set foot there.

"Interesting."

However, Lin Yan didn't care too much. It was just that the situation in the Fensun World was special. The Virtual Universe Company cultivated this kind of Blood Sucking Vine in the outside world. Its combat power was really not strong. It could only be considered an ordinary Plant Lifeform, which was stronger than common plants like Iron Vine Grass.

He swiped the screen, and a series of complex diagrams appeared. The test task that Qian Sha gave him was "Jungle Hunter". He needed to collect the Body Material of various ferocious beasts and Plant Lifeform as tokens. Reaching 60% of the requirements would be considered a success, 80% would be excellent, and 100% would be perfect.

Without exception, all of them were Stellar level nine targets.

This includes the Blood Sucking Vine, but the dead wood in his hand is not enough to serve as a token. The Blood Sucking Vine has a special core, and only by destroying or removing the core will the Plant Lifeform's tenacious vitality be completely eradicated.

This task seems simple, after all, it is not difficult for the genius elites of the Virtual Universe Company to kill ferocious beasts of the same level. However, in the Fensun World, Cosmic level monsters are very common, and even Domain Lord level exist. Therefore, one must be careful and cautious, otherwise it will be Myriad Tribulations.

However, these are all secondary.

Lin Yan's consciousness entered the Blue Mist Space, where a complex map appeared, and the final destination was depicted as a vortex.

Compare the map in your mind with the map input by the Virtual Universe Company.

"The Nanluo Mountain Range?"

Whoosh!

Lin Yan's figure vanished into thin air.

The Nanluo Mountain Range are close to the inner layer of this world, where Cosmic level ferocious beasts are not uncommon, so Lin Yan is being quite cautious.

His current Shadow Talent doesn't last very long, so he can only use it as a survival skill; otherwise, he could easily get close to his destination.

Call out!

Lin Yan instantly appeared in mid-air, the Light Domain distorted, and a huge golden light blade suddenly appeared!

Just as the Sabertooth Tiger reacted, its pupils reflected a brilliant gold, before it instantly transformed into a cloud of blood mist.

"Sabertooth Tiger (adult stage), Stellar level nine. Meets mission objectives!"

An image flashed across the screen.

Lin Yan stepped on the Sabertooth Tiger's corpse with his combat boots, gathered his refined mental energy, and forcefully pulled out its two saber teeth, storing them in his Space Ring.

During his journey, he encountered ferocious beasts that matched his mission objectives, which he easily captured without wasting much of his time.

As he got closer to his destination, his pace slowed down. This was because the Virtual Universe Company needed to train its members' vigilance and sense of crisis. Therefore, throughout the entire Fensun World, the detection instruments were shielded and could not detect anything even if they were turned on.

If we rely on detection instruments, this kind of test is meaningless.

Of course, if the detection equipment is so valuable that it exceeds the shielding technology of Virtual Universe Company, it will not be affected.

But which Stellar level has that kind of financial resources?

Lin Yan could only proceed cautiously. His strength was sufficient to handle low-level Cosmic level ferocious beasts, but if there were too many or if their level was too high, he could only rely on his Shadow Talent to escape.

It took Lin Yan a full twenty-one days to reach the location marked on the map.

A lake located in the Nanluo Mountain Range.

Splash...

The mountain streams are crystal clear, flowing down from the ravines and into the lake. The mountain air is cool and refreshing, and a thin mist hangs over the lake. A gray-black crocodile, over a hundred meters long, emerges from the water, its markings resembling those of a demon.

"Mountain Ghost Crocodile (Peak Period), Cosmic level three".

Cosmic level three?

He needed to kill the Mountain Ghost Crocodile before he could enter the lake, but Cosmic level three was not easy to deal with. Lin Yan was confident he could kill it, but the environment here was quite dangerous, and if it attracted other ferocious beasts, it would be very troublesome.

Lin Yan thought about it and realized that he had to make two preparations.

First, we need to eliminate the nearby ferocious beasts. While Cosmic level ferocious beasts are not particularly numerous, Stellar level ferocious beasts are far too common. Eliminating these nearby ferocious beasts will prevent our battle with the Mountain Ghost Crocodile from disturbing them and thus spreading the impact further.

Secondly, he launched a surprise attack on the Mountain Ghost Crocodile with the strongest attack method. His Arc Saber Lotus has no room for improvement for the time being, but the Myriad Sword Soul Seal can already reach ten thousand Sword Soul Seal. Now, he only needs the Myriad Swords United to combine with the ultimate restraint of the Arc Saber Lotus and achieve the strongest attack effect.

Lin Yan narrowed his eyes, looking at the gray-black crocodile under the thin mist with a cold gaze.

... I'll keep you for two more days!

The Sha Luo Flower sank into the ground, clearing a spacious area where Lin Yan hid, guarded by the Sha Luo Flower, before his consciousness sank into the Mind Palace.

A book with a gold cover was open in front of him.

"Soul Seal"!

"Pfft..."

Lin Yan seemed to transform into Hunter in the jungle, making no unnecessary movements, incredibly precise, even possessing a strange sense of artistry, ruthlessly slaughtering one ferocious beast after another.

The vines of the Sha Luo Flower have already spread underground, and will serve as a sentinel on the perimeter while Lin Yan battles the Mountain Ghost Crocodile.

Everything is ready.

Whoosh!

Lin Yan's figure flashed by quickly... He half-squatted on a branch with a thick, crooked neck that was over twenty meters long, looking at the gray-black crocodiles in the lake in the distance.

Sudden--

A truly bizarre scene unfolded! His figure was completely enveloped in the shadow of the tree trunk from head to toe, like a ghost.

Not a second later.

A shadowy figure suddenly appeared on the shore of the lake, transforming back into human form!

Go!

"Roar—" The Mountain Ghost Crocodile turned its massive head slightly and saw a tiny creature hovering in mid-air staring at it. Just as it let out a dissatisfied roar, a golden lotus flower transformed into a golden stream of light and suddenly shot towards it!

Call out!

The Mountain Ghost Crocodile tried to turn its head to avoid it, but it was too late!

The dazzling golden light was like the blazing sun. The power gathered at one point suddenly exploded, and hundreds of golden lights fiercely cut through the scales of the Mountain Ghost Crocodile. The lake water rippled, and waves hundreds of meters high were stirred up!

Within the consciousness of the Mountain Ghost Crocodile!

"Boom!"

The moment Dao Lian approached the Mountain Ghost Crocodile, the sword formed from the power of nothingness pierced deeply into its Soul Core!

Myriad Swords United! Myriad Swords United!

The Mountain Ghost Crocodile's blood instantly stained the lake red, but its powerful vitality and defense allowed it to survive the ordeal. But how could Lin Yan not press his advantage?

In an instant, streaks of golden light reassembled into a lotus flower, passing directly through the massive wound on the Mountain Ghost Crocodile's body and entering its enormous head, hissing and sizzling as it Strangulation its interior.

Then, golden light flew out from the head again and quickly flew back behind Lin Yan.

The Mountain Ghost Crocodile's body continued to tremble instinctively. Its huge eyes rolled and stared at the black-armored man in front of it, completely unable to understand why such a powerful human would appear. Then... its consciousness Annihilation.

The vines of the Sha Luo Flower sprouted from the ground, entered the water, tightly wrapped around the huge corpse, and bloomed dozens of enchanting flowers while devouring it!

Soon.

Lin Yan retrieved the Sha Luo Flower, and apart from the lake water turning red, everything was calm and peaceful, as if nothing had happened.

His eyes were utterly cold, his Force Battle Suit covering his entire body. He entered the lake directly, which was over a thousand meters deep. When he reached the bottom, he scanned the area and sensed something in his heart.

Its body moved like an arrow, suddenly charging towards a certain location.

Click-clack, click-clack—

The completely dormant intelligent program suddenly awoke, and a Mechanical Puppet seemed to be wound up, its eyes glowing red.

"Intruder detected..."

"Execute clearance command, E3 Class Laser Cannon preparing to fire..."

"The test results show that the target meets the conditions for inheritance..."

"Rejecting the cleanup command, initiating the inheritance process..."

"The succession process has been initiated, and the core instructions have been received..."

The electronic voice boomed and ruthlessly. "Through inheritance, or death!"
