Babata's Doubts, Yang Wu Returns Fully Loaded

Whoosh!

Especially since the attack power of every willow branch from the Willow King was at the very least comparable to the furious slash of an Advanced Warlord's blade!

"Not bad." Yang Wu neither dodged nor evaded. After voicing his approval, he suddenly exerted force.

Yang Wu stepped forward, his feet tapping the ground with incredible speed. The ground within dozens of meters around him sank more than a foot in unison.

Rumble!

Amid a series of sonic booms, Yang Wu hurtled toward the Ten Thousand Year Willow King.

His powerful Planet-level physique forcibly crushed and shoved aside the air before him.

A single step covered hundreds of meters, leaving a rolling dust dragon in his wake!

Countless clumps of earth were blasted into the air, while the ordinary plants around him collapsed one after another from the shockwaves!

Before the branches of the Willow King and the Spirits of Plants and Trees could encircle him, he had already flashed before the Ten Thousand Year Willow King.

Though the Willow King's attacks were fast, they were still far slower than Yang Wu's.

He bent down!

He drew back!

He drew his blade!

Clang!

A Blade Light flashed like lightning.

Yang Wu's Blood Shadow Battle Blade struck and withdrew in an instant. Like sunlight brushing past, it was plain and traceless, taking the word "fast" to its absolute limit!

This Blade Light carried boundless Giant Strength and swept past the Ten Thousand Year Willow King with endless chill!

The Ten Thousand Year Willow King, which had withstood the power of numerous War God Peaks for two hours without falling, was slain by a single strike from Yang Wu!

The Blade Light vanished in a flash, and Yang Wu did not spare the Ten Thousand Year Willow King another glance.

He merely controlled his Mental Power and swept up the Ten Thousand Year Willow Heart.

[Congratulations, you have obtained the Ten Thousand Year Willow Heart as loot. Would you like to perform Ten Thousand Times Amplification?]

[Ten Thousand Times Amplification of the Ten Thousand Year Willow Heart successful. Congratulations, Host, you have obtained a Large Mu Ya Crystal.]

"The Mu Ya Crystal produced after the Ten Thousand Times Amplification of this Ten Thousand Year Willow Heart is even larger than the first Mu Ya Crystal I obtained."

Yang Wu could not help smiling as he looked at the Mu Ya Crystal that nearly would not fit inside his backpack.

Then, amid the trembling Thousand Year Willow Kings, Yang Wu turned and charged toward another Spirit of Plants and Trees.

Even the Ten Thousand Year Willow King was no match for Yang Wu, let alone the other Spirits of Plants and Trees.

In only a short while, several more Great Mu Ya Crystals appeared in Yang Wu's backpack.

Underground, aboard the Meteor Star spacecraft, the little demon Babata stood before an unknown instrument.

This Detection System had a detection range of twenty thousand meters. It could roughly assess a person's strength, Force Exertion Level, Brain Region Extent, and so on...

During the Mu Ya Crystal Feast arc, Babata had relied on this Detection System to examine the strength, potential, Brain Region Extent, and other attributes of every Planet-level warrior!

As a Planet-level warrior who had entered the range of his Detection System, Yang Wu naturally drew Babata's attention.

"If the instrument isn't wrong, then Yang Wu's bloodline should be Planet-level..." Babata raised a brow.

"Earthlings seem to possess only ordinary Ninth-grade bloodlines. Why has such an anomaly appeared?"

The most direct way to raise one's bloodline grade was through Bloodline Evolution Agents.

Bloodline Evolution Agents... were strictly controlled trade goods within the Virtual Universe Company, and they were extremely expensive. At the very least, Earthlings could not afford them.

The other, indirect method was gradual change over time, slowly raising the overall bloodline through subtle influence.

In the Original Work, Luo Feng paid a considerable price, and after several hundred years, Earth's bloodline grade generally reached Eighth-grade bloodline.

Yet no matter which possibility it was, Babata felt that Yang Wu did not fit either one. He was clearly an anomaly.

"Setting aside his strange Planet-level bloodline for now, he possesses a Planet-level Warrior Bloodline... yet his adult Force Exertion Level is only four times?" Babata's mouth twitched.

"Moreover, judging by his battle with those so-called Spirits of Plants and Trees, his Blade Technique and Movement Technique are only at the Perfect Level and Consummate Level."

"Of course, those are merely Earth's evaluation standards. In the Universe, he would only be at the 'basic' level."

"Could his Planet-level Warrior Bloodline be watered down or something?"

"Still, his Brain Region Extent is fairly decent. By the old Yun Mo Star system's standards, he could be considered an elite."

Brain Region Extent was essentially the degree of brain development.

The higher one's Brain Region Extent, the more naturally suited one was to becoming a Spiritual Master. Put simply, it meant greater aptitude in that area.

Hong and Lei Shen, for instance, clearly had higher comprehension than Luo Feng, yet neither was a Spiritual Master.

When Luo Feng entered Ruins No. 9, his Brain Region Extent was 21, enough for him to be called an "elite" Genius.

"In summary, he is more suited to being a Warrior, given that he has a Planet-level Warrior Bloodline." Babata sighed.

On Lake Heart Island, Yang Wu stopped attacking after killing those willow Spirits of Plants and Trees.

There were certainly Spirits of Plants and Trees here that were more valuable than the Ten Thousand Year Willow Heart.

But... Yang Wu was currently only an ordinary Planet-level warrior. He truly feared encountering the Moyun Vine, so he planned to stop for now.

Once he refined these Large Mu Ya Crystals and reached the Planet-level Peak, it would not be too late to return.

After all, Spirits of Plants and Trees could not exactly run away, could they?

"With so many Large Mu Ya Crystals, reaching the Planet-level Peak will be effortless." Yang Wu patted his backpack in satisfaction.

Even the small Mu Ya Crystals from the Original Work could allow an Apprentice at the peak to reach the Planet-level.

With so many Large Mu Ya Crystals, he could likely create over a thousand Planet-level warriors.

One had to know—how many Planet-level warriors did the entire Earth possess?

Thus, his harvest this time was already an astronomical fortune, one that even Hong and Lei Shen would envy.

Before he became sufficiently powerful—before reaching the Planet-level Peak—he absolutely would not reveal that he possessed so many Mu Ya Crystals. Otherwise, the consequences would be difficult to predict.

Yang Wu was not afraid, but what about the people around him?

Moreover, once he revealed one, others would definitely suspect that he had more. After all, human ambition was endless.

That was human nature. No explanation would help, and the trouble that followed would be endless as well.

Yang Wu would not go looking for trouble, nor did he intend to create trouble for himself. He would keep a low profile first and become a Planet-level Peak warrior before anything else.

As for the coming plot and crises... he had no intention of getting involved.

For example, next August... whether Luo Feng would come to the island, and whether he could still obtain the Spirits of Plants and Trees after arriving here, would probably depend on his luck.

As for the Golden Horned Beast and the arrival of the Cosmic Adventurers, perhaps by the time Yang Wu had kept a low profile long enough, he would be able to resolve them with a casual wave of his hand.

"Actually, with my current strength, entering the War God Reserve Camp next would not mean much." Yang Wu's gaze sharpened. "But I still can't expose myself!"

Whether he joined the War God Reserve Camp or not did not matter...

However, Yang Wu had previously failed the Quasi-Warrior Assessment multiple times.

Yet he had suddenly risen to prominence in July and had now even become a Beyond War God powerhouse... If word got out, the entire world would likely go mad.

Just imagining that scene made Yang Wu's scalp tingle.

"So the War God Reserve Camp... can serve as a place to lie low." Yang Wu smiled.

"As long as I don't encounter a Planet-level being, no one will discover that I am already Planet-level!"
