One Sword Slays the Beast Emperor

Another insight?

Hong and Thor exchanged a glance, both feeling old.

Though by their ages, they would still be considered youngsters in the universe.

"Domain, unfold!"

"Infinite Void... I can't do that."

With a thought from Gu Ce, his body seemed to completely merge into the water, becoming a stream of water and also a sharp sword as he attacked the Eight-Clawed Beast Emperor.

The Ice Desolation Sword Technique was an exceptionally profound sword art. It incorporated the Ice Desolation World Lord's insights into water and the Origin Laws of Space, and later even touched upon the path of law fusion.

Of course, the foundational section did not explain such things.

Even so, it still gave Gu Ce tremendous inspiration.

Wave Sword Technique—Die Lang!

Die Lang was still part of the Wave Sword Technique. It counted as a technique rather than an independent sword move, yet it increased the Wave's power severalfold.

Layer upon layer of Waves eventually fused into a single sword strike. It somewhat resembled Gu Hechang's Conception, yet it followed an entirely different path.

This sword strike incorporated the Water Domain!

The Eight-Clawed Beast Emperor sensed the threat of death. It continuously extended its thick, long tentacles, trying to block Gu Ce as they churned the water.

"Roaaar~~"

The Eight-Clawed Beast Emperor let out a piercing cry. Splash! Splash! Splash! Ink-black venom suddenly sprayed toward him.

However.

The Water Domain was no mere decoration.

The water currents blocked the venom, transforming into torrents like high-pressure water cannons and sending the venom straight back at the Eight-Clawed Beast Emperor.

"Swish!"

Frost Slash struck!

The surrounding seawater instantly froze into ice, only to be scattered apart by the currents.

"Roaaar~ Roaaar~ Roaaar~"

The Eight-Clawed Beast Emperor let out agonized cries, its eight thick tentacles lashing about wildly. Its mountain-sized head kept bulging and caving in, while its pair of eyes, each larger than a house, filled with madness and pain.

Splash!

A vertical mark appeared atop the Eight-Clawed Beast Emperor's enormous head. A wound more than ten meters long split open, and white and red fluids immediately gushed out like fountains before being diluted by the seawater.

The Eight-Clawed Beast Emperor's eight thick tentacles drooped weakly. Its huge body rapidly sank, descending to the seabed.

One sword, instant kill!

The Eight-Clawed Beast Emperor, one of the two Beast Emperors that had plagued humanity for years, died at the hands of Gu Ce, the newly appointed Council Leader!

Hong and Thor exchanged a glance. Thor decided to go back and train harder.

With the Eight-Clawed Beast Emperor dead, the hidden King-level Monsters nearby naturally stood no chance. Hong and Thor joined forces and swiftly slaughtered them.

As for the remaining Beast Emperor, the Thunder Dragon Emperor had disappeared somewhere and could not be found.

Gu Ce suspected it might have already teamed up with the Golden Horn Beast, but that did not seem right after thinking it over.

When the Golden Horn Beast appeared, it seemed to have only been one year old, right?

If he remembered correctly, the Golden Horn Beast would not appear for another three or four years. It should still only be an egg now.

They could only assume the Thunder Dragon Emperor had hidden itself. If it had truly concealed itself in some ocean trench, then with Earth's vast seas, it would be hard to find him.

After discussing it, the three still decided to give up the search for now and return to land.

The King-level Monsters on land suffered another devastating blow.

October 8 was destined to be a day worthy of being recorded in human history.

On that day, the monsters that had plagued humanity for so long were suppressed. Since the Great Nirvana, humanity finally reclaimed its position as Earth's dominant race. One of the two Beast Emperors had been slain, while the Thunder Dragon Emperor's whereabouts were unknown.

Although the monsters had not been completely eradicated and the seas remained forbidden territory for humanity, at the very least, the land-dwelling monsters would no longer dare take the initiative to attack human base cities.

The Wilderness Area would completely become a hunting ground for human warriors!

The structure of Earth's three strongest experts was also completely stabilized.

Gu Ce's name was now recorded in textbooks alongside Hong and Thor's, praised and spread by countless people.

The Gu Family's three existences beyond the War God level also became one of Earth's strongest powers. Gu Hesheng accepted Thor's invitation and became a Patrol Envoy of the Lightning Martial Arts School, while Gu Hechang cultivated diligently, hoping that one day he too could comprehend a Domain.

Earth entered an era of prosperity and development.

November 1.

Three months had passed since the Warrior Practical Combat Assessment.

"Gu Ce, that spacecraft has been repaired, and so have the three Flowing Silver Guards. Shouldn't we enter the universe now?" Rimuru said excitedly.

Earth was too small.

It was not suitable for Gu Ce's development.

"Mm, we'll set off today."

His consciousness withdrew from the Virtual Space constructed by Rimuru, and he stopped cultivating.

After more than twenty days, Gu Ce's Water Domain had already reached the second level, the same realm as Hong's.

As for Gene Energy, he had reached the fifth rank of the Planetary Level, second only to Hong and Thor on Earth.

With the Water Domain and the Ice Desolation Sword Technique, Gu Ce was now unquestionably Earth's strongest expert!

Of course.

Because Gu Ce had given them the manuals.

Hong and Thor's strength had also increased greatly compared to before.

Although Thor still had not comprehended a Domain, his Nine Heavens Thunder Blade had improved considerably. Not only could it boost defense, its overall power amplification had also reached more than tenfold.

Although it still fell far short of the various secret manuals in the universe, he had created it himself after all.

Compared to Thor, Hong's progress was not as obvious, but he had still gained a great deal. He would likely advance another step in the Domain before long.

"Rimuru, call Hong and Thor over." Gu Ce walked into the bathroom and took a cold shower.

He arranged his white hair in the mirror. With his azure-blue eyes, fair skin, strong physique, well-proportioned body, and handsome face, countless people on Earth wanted to pursue Gu Ce.

By the time Gu Ce came out of the bathroom, Hong and Thor had also arrived at Gu Family Manor.

"I wonder what humans from other civilizations look like. And just how exciting are the civilizations in the universe?" Thor appeared rather excited. After all, it was his first time leaving Earth.

Compared to him, Hong was much calmer.

"Second Brother, Planetary Level warriors are nothing in the universe. We still need to be careful. Have you learned the Universal Language?"

"Of course I have." Thor said smugly.

"As long as you have. Otherwise, you might get captured and not even know what to say." Hong teased.

"Brother Hong!" Thor glared, just about to say something.

"You two, get aboard first. The journey will be a long one." Gu Ce said with a helpless smile.

High in the sky.

A massive black saucer-shaped spacecraft appeared. Its outer hatch opened, and the three swiftly flew inside before the hatch closed.

The Black Dragon Ship swiftly tore through the air and headed into outer space.

After the three departed, Earth's strongest expert would be a Flowing Silver Guard left behind by Gu Ce, possessing the strength of the ninth rank of the Stellar Level.

Inside the Black Dragon Ship's control room.

Thor looked around like a curious child.

Gu Ce stood before the control console's screen, where Rimuru's figure appeared.

"Gu Ce, the spacecraft has left Earth. I've recorded the spatial coordinates here. We can return directly through the Dark Universe afterward!" Rimuru said.

Hearing this, Gu Ce nodded.

Although this region of space had been concealed by Hu Yanbo using a secret technique, there were no restrictions on leaving it. Returning from outside was somewhat troublesome, but Rimuru had successfully used the equipment aboard the Ice Desolation to decipher Hu Yanbo's secret technique and obtain Earth's coordinates.

It was hard to say whether the Ice Desolation World Lord or Hu Yanbo had the higher comprehension of the Origin Laws of Space.
