A Sudden Windfall!

Watching Li Qingshan rush into the World Gate, it was as if he was swallowed whole by the blood-colored vortex.

Kong Hao and the others were stunned, exchanging glances.

They were no strangers to the urgent look on Li Qingshan's face.

They had the same expression when rushing to the cafeteria after class every day.

But...

The other side of the World Gate wasn't the cafeteria!

Didn't they see how many investigators couldn't withstand it just now and were forced out?

"Let's go!" Kong Hao sighed, gripping his spear tightly.

"Li Qingshan must already be heavily surrounded by Wolf Venom; if we're late, it'll be too late."

"That's right, each high-level Wolf Venom's physical body is stronger than Body Tempering tenth level. They aren't easy to deal with, so be careful."

Jin Yi and Yang Bo drew their sabers, following behind Kong Hao.

The three of them were full of vigilance, carefully stepping into the World Gate.

The blood-colored vortex was like a mirror, rippling as the three of them passed through.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The roars shook the heavens, and the stench of blood assaulted their nostrils.

Kong Hao and the others' brows twitched, quickly using their movement techniques to get into position.

However, the countless attacks they had expected didn't come.

Their hands holding weapons paused, and the three turned to look at a spot a hundred meters away.

That was where the roars were coming from.

A figure was weaving among seven or eight Wolf Venoms.

Li Qingshan was indeed surrounded, but these high-level Wolf Venoms couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.

"Li Qingshan's attacking so fast?" Jin Yi swallowed, pointing to the ground.

The soil was already soaked with blood, and more than a dozen Wolf Venom corpses lay horizontally on the ground, split in two.

Even though they were just ordinary Wolf Venoms, Li Qingshan had only been in there for a dozen seconds.

A dozen seconds to kill more than a dozen Wolf Venoms, and he did it while being surrounded by seven or eight high-level Wolf Venoms?

And he didn't show even the slightest bit of discomfort after entering the Star Realm for the first time and being surrounded by a horde of beasts?

Kong Hao and Yang Bo didn't question it, nor did they suspect that they were left behind by the previous investigators.

Because judging from the wounds on the corpses, it was clear that they were all cleaved by the same person with a saber, and from the bottom up!

Crotch-Reaping Saber!

Thinking of Li Qingshan's title, the three of them unconsciously clamped their legs together.

Roar!

The earth-shaking roars continued, becoming more and more urgent.

Dozens of seconds passed, and the few high-level Wolf Venoms not only failed to injure Li Qingshan in the slightest, but instead had many wounds cleaved into their bodies.

"Hahaha, the Essence of Square Inch is indeed well-deserved!"

Kong Hao laughed loudly, his heroic spirit rising, and he charged forward with his spear.

"Li Qingshan, I'm here to help you!"

Yang Bo raised his saber high, following closely behind.

But after taking only two steps, he was forcibly stopped by Jin Yi.

Yang Bo turned back in confusion, and Jin Yi pointed to the battlefield, gloating:

"Don't forget Li Qingshan's final 'plan'!"

Although he didn't know why Li Qingshan killed Ferocious Beasts like he was rushing for food in the cafeteria, if it was rushing for food, then he definitely wouldn't want anyone else to interfere.

Moreover, in just half a minute, two high-level Wolf Venoms had already fallen. Where did he need their help?

Yang Bo looked in the direction of his finger.

He saw that Kong Hao had already entered the battlefield, the tip of his spear piercing the heart of a Wolf Venom.

And Li Qingshan...

His ghostly figure silently appeared behind Kong Hao.

Huh?

Jin Yi and Yang Bo's eyes widened.

Kong Hao felt a chill between his legs and quickly turned around, meeting Li Qingshan's gaze, which was appraising him from the bottom up.

"You're here to steal my kill?"

Li Qingshan's gaze was deep and unfathomable.

"No, help! I'm here to help!"

Kong Hao shivered and quickly replied, afraid that the Crotch-Reaping Saber would come down on him.

"Help?"

Li Qingshan's right foot suddenly slid forward, and he thrust out with his saber.

Before Kong Hao could react, the blade was already grazing his shoulder, stabbing towards what was behind him.

A high-level Wolf Venom, its chest covered in blood, stood on its hind legs, claws swiping.

Puchi!

The tip of the saber followed the wound that Kong Hao had just inflicted, piercing the Wolf Venom's heart first.

Li Qingshan twisted his wrist, crushing the heart.

[Monster killed, Martial Dao Space experience +3, available time increased by 3 years]

The panel notification flashed, and Li Qingshan's eyes finally returned to normal. He frowned and looked at the dazed Kong Hao.

"No help is needed here, proceed according to the original plan!"

With that, he brandished his saber, moved swiftly, and led the remaining five high-level Wolf Venoms to move forward.

The battlefield shifted forward, and Kong Hao naturally escaped the encirclement.

After snapping back to his senses, he looked at the Wolf Venom corpse on the ground, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

In terms of pure strength, killing a high-level Wolf Venom wouldn't be too difficult for him.

But in the chaos of battle, a moment of carelessness could lead to death under its claws.

Kong Hao didn't hesitate any longer and immediately moved away from the battlefield, searching for Zhu Ping's trail with Jin Yi, following the direction shown on the map.

One minute later,

[Monster killed, Martial Dao Space experience +3, available time increased by 3 years]

The last Wolf Venom fell to the ground.

Li Qingshan stepped on the Ferocious Beast's head and wiped the blood off his saber with its fur.

At the same time, he looked around.

Only now did he have time to observe the legendary Star Realm.

The sky was dusky yellow, with no sun or moon in sight.

The only light source was the faint, flickering points of light behind the dusky yellow, scattered across the entire sky like countless stars.

However, the dusky yellow was like a layer of thin gauze, making it difficult to see clearly.

The surrounding terrain was flat, with no plants, like a desolate desert.

Of course, not all Star Realms were like this.

The Star Realm was different from the real dimension, with an unknown number and size.

Even the areas behind two adjacent World Gates were definitely two different Star Realms.

Li Qingshan withdrew his gaze and looked at the World Gate a hundred meters away.

The blood-colored vortex stood in the middle of a pile of Wolf Venom corpses, out of place with the surrounding environment.

If it weren't for its appearance, this land would probably never have welcomed human footsteps.

The ground was soaked with blood, a bloody red.

The Wolf Venom corpses were broken and messy, making it difficult to count them.

But Li Qingshan knew their number very well.

Fifteen!

His gaze swept over the kill notifications on the panel, and Li Qingshan couldn't help but smile.

Although the experience provided by Ferocious Beasts was far less than that of Evil God Cultists of the same level, there were so many of them!

Fifteen ordinary Wolf Venoms, each worth 1 year of available time.

Eight high-level Wolf Venoms, each worth 3 years.

In just under 5 minutes after crossing the World Gate, he had gained 39 years of available time.

Adding the 13 years he had gained from killing Liang Mingyu and the clone at the entrance of the residential area, The available time in the Martial Dao Space had already exceeded the 50-year mark!

"Jackpot! A massive jackpot!"

Li Qingshan's eyes flickered as he glanced at the Martial Dao Space experience points.

Function: Martial Dao Space Lv1 (61/100)

Before this, upgrading the Martial Dao Space felt like a distant dream, so difficult that he had almost forgotten about the feature.

But now...

"It seems like it might not be impossible after all?"

Li Qingshan pulled out the crumpled map and looked at the arrows marked on it.

These were all directions that the investigators had speculated based on the tracks on the ground.

Next to one of the arrows, a red dot was particularly conspicuous, with a small line of text below it.

"Wolf Venom Den"

"The Wolf Venom pack should have old, weak, and disabled members too. They wouldn't all come out at once, would they?"

Li Qingshan muttered to himself, put the map back into his pocket, and looked up at his surroundings.

After confirming the direction, he stomped hard with his right foot, moving like lightning and leaving afterimages on the desolate Gobi Desert.

Since he was going that way anyway, he might as well send the Wolf Venom tribe to reunite underground!
