After several of humanity's strongest fighters on Earth freed up their hands, the hunt for King Level Monsters began.

In just three short days, every King Level Monster on land was exterminated. Only some oceanic King Level Monsters that lived in the deep sea and had never launched beast tides were spared. Their remaining numbers were roughly equal to those of humanity's Councilors. After all, the future generation needed somewhere to hone their skills.

Three days later, the fighting above the Councilor level came to an end. After reaching an agreement with the remaining King Level Monsters, the beast tides finally subsided.

Humanity had also paid an enormous price in this battle. More than a dozen Councilors had fallen, countless Martial Artists had been lost, and ordinary civilians had suffered innumerable casualties. It could not be helped. Aside from those who had died at the beginning because of the Kinkaku Giant Beast, seven or eight Base Cities had also been breached during these three days of beast tides, resulting in devastating losses.

But all those sacrifices had been repaid. Humanity had recovered nearly all its lost territory, regained its dominant position on Earth, and expanded its living space.

With the lost lands reclaimed, it was foreseeable that Earth's humanity would enter an unprecedented era of prosperity. More newborns would be born, more Martial Artists and geniuses would emerge, and humanity would have greater hope in the face of future opportunities and challenges!

As for Bai Yue, after hypnotizing the Kinkaku Giant Beast, he began analyzing it here. This would be an arduous task, and he had prepared himself for a long struggle.

As for putting the Kinkaku Giant Beast into the Dao Fruit space, that was impossible. After it acknowledged him as its Master, anything conscious could no longer come into contact with the space where the Dao Fruit was located.

If he forcibly brought something with living consciousness inside, that being's consciousness would instantly dissolve into the Dao.

After three days, Bai Yue's analysis of the Kinkaku Giant Beast had only remained at the surface. He had yet to delve into the secrets contained within its genes.

As one of the Starry Sky Giant Beasts with the most exceptional bloodlines, the Kinkaku Giant Beast possessed a Gene Level ten times that of humans. More importantly, hidden deep within its genes were inherited secret techniques accumulated over generations, as well as some knowledge of the universe.

Naturally, no one had failed to come here during those three days. Although the upper echelons and experts of the major factions had all been resisting the beast tides, they had each sent personnel here.

When they saw Bai Yue sitting cross-legged atop the Kinkaku Giant Beast's back, they did not go over to disturb him. Instead, they set up temporary camps at a distance around the area.

Thus, when Luo Feng and the others found time to rush over, they saw the temporary camps of the various factions surrounding the Kinkaku Giant Beast.

In truth, the people who had arrived early to set up camp did not lack the desire to go up and speak with him, hoping to study the Kinkaku Giant Beast. However, even though the Kinkaku Giant Beast was already asleep, the savage aura emanating from its body had not diminished in the slightest.

To those who had not even reached the Planet Level, it was like the sun in the starry sky. They could not even approach it.

As long as they faced the Kinkaku Giant Beast's might head-on, even those with strong consciousness would feel pain in their eyes, as though a mountain were pressing down on their hearts, slowing even their ability to think.

As for those with weak mental will, they would foam at the mouth and collapse within minutes, their consciousness blurred as they fainted.

Therefore, everyone could only set up temporary camps at a safe distance around it.

Sensing the arrival of Luo Feng, Hong, and the others, Bai Yue opened his eyes and rose from the Kinkaku Giant Beast's back.

After several sharp sounds of air being torn apart, Luo Feng, Hong, and many other Councilors also arrived atop the Kinkaku Giant Beast's back.

"As expected of a Starry Sky Giant Beast. Before even fighting it, its aura alone puts us at a disadvantage!" a Councilor remarked as he sensed the Kinkaku Giant Beast's overwhelming presence and the defense that even laser cannons could not break.

"I never expected you to reach this level already. I am inferior to you," Hong said to Bai Yue.

He did not feel disappointed in the slightest over losing the title of Earth's strongest. On the contrary, he felt relieved that when Earth had faced danger, someone had stepped forward and eliminated the source of that danger.

After chatting here for a while and sharing the joy of victory after the great battle, they began discussing Earth's future.

After this battle, Earth's situation had undergone a fundamental change. Monsters no longer posed a lethal threat to humanity.

No one knew whether that was good or bad for humanity. Although the rise of monsters since the Great Nirvana Era had brought tremendous disaster to mankind, it was undeniable that it had also produced experts such as Hong and Thunder God.

Bai Yue declined their proposal to elect him as the new First Speaker, saying that he only wished to focus wholeheartedly on cultivation and had no interest in managing Earth's affairs.

In the end, he was still nominated as the Third Speaker, while Luo Feng became the Fourth Speaker. This was also the inevitable trend. After all, with more and more Planet Level beings appearing on Earth, the number of Speakers would certainly have to increase as well.

Earth had previously had only five Speakers. Increasing that number to seven now was only natural.

After their discussion, Bai Yue entrusted Huaxia Country with building a manor for him beside West Lake.

With his current strength, even if it were free, other countries would compete to build him a manor to his satisfaction—let alone when he had offered a Wood Fang Crystal as payment for its construction.

Although humanity's territory had been continuously compressed since the Great Nirvana Era, that did not mean human technology had stagnated.

On the contrary, because of the exploration of various ancient ruins, human technology had exploded forward. All kinds of tools had been upgraded through countless generations, so building a manor was no longer difficult! It could be completed in just a few days.

The house in Mingyue Residential Area was no longer suitable for his cultivation. Simply storing the Kinkaku Giant Beast's enormous body was a major problem, not to mention the aura it naturally emitted. If it were transported to Mingyue Residential Area, no one in the entire neighborhood would be able to live peacefully!

After most people had left, Bai Yue kept Luo Feng behind alone.

"Madman, help me call Babata out."

Without saying anything more, Luo Feng summoned Babata. Before long, Babata's image was projected onto his shoulder.

"Babata, I need a World Ring," Bai Yue said directly.

He knew Babata definitely had one. As a former World Lord Level expert, with his Master having even reached the Marquis-ranked level, how could he possess only the things revealed in the original story?

It was merely because the early Luo Feng had not been worth investing too much in. After Luo Feng joined the Virtual Universe Company through the Genius Battle, those few items of Babata's would no longer mean much anyway.

"A World Ring! Do you know its value? Impossible!" Babata roared. The red glow in his eyes seemed to intensify.

"Haha, don't be so hasty."

Bai Yue tapped the Kinkaku Giant Beast beneath his feet and continued, "Do you think this Kinkaku Giant Beast is enough?"

"You mean..." Babata stared at the Kinkaku Giant Beast below them, greed flashing in his eyes. If Luo Feng could possess the Kinkaku Giant Beast, Huyan Bo's chances of revenge would increase tremendously.

"That's right, exactly what you're thinking. Luo Feng can possess this Kinkaku Giant Beast."

"Why don't you use it?" Babata asked in confusion.

"I don't need it," Bai Yue said.

That was right. He did not need it.

In fact, he could already create a clone. Ever since acknowledging the Dao Fruit as his Master, he had been able to use the abilities of Analysis and Creation to duplicate himself and merge his consciousness into it, turning it into a clone. It simply could only exist within the Dao Fruit space.

Because those within the Primeval Universe did not possess the ability to create clones, any clone he created would be erased by the supreme laws of the devouring universe once it left the Dao Fruit space.

Yesterday's Chapter 22 update was still under review because it involved sensitive words. I didn't know whether it would pass. I posted the next two chapters today instead—please bookmark and recommend them.
