Base City No. 003

After thinking for a long time, Wang Cheng immediately realized that his best option was to go to the wilderness area.

Whether it was absorbing gene energy, comprehending laws, or accumulating practical combat experience, all could be easily achieved in the wilderness area.

"Forget it, I've been home for three months, it's time to go out and stretch my legs!" Wang Cheng made up his mind.

Wang Cheng was actually quite a homebody; otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed indoors for the past three months since his transmigration.

However, since there was a strong necessity to go out now, Wang Cheng had no intention of continuing to be a shut-in!

After making his decision, Wang Cheng didn't hesitate. He directly packed a bunch of basic supplies and prepared to head to the wilderness area. However, before leaving, Wang Cheng used his innate talent to create an Apprentice Tier 3 clone to stay at home.

Wang Cheng decided to keep his identity as a High-level Warrior for now. He planned to go to the wilderness area stealthily this time, so naturally, he needed a "Wang Cheng" to stay at home.

And Wang Cheng happened to have the innate talent of Clone Technique, so this matter was a trivial one for him.

After handling everything, Wang Cheng quietly left Mingyue Community and soon arrived at the outskirts of Yangzhou City.

Yangzhou City was a district on the outskirts of Jiangnan Base City, so after leaving Yangzhou City, it was directly the wilderness area.

Of course, under normal circumstances, Yangzhou City did not provide a passage for martial artists to leave Jiangnan Base City. Around Yangzhou City, there were defenses set up by the military to prevent monsters from invading the base city.

However, Wang Cheng was not planning to go to the wilderness area through the official channels this time, so it didn't matter where he left from. Moreover, Wang Cheng didn't think the military near Yangzhou City could stop him.

Upon arriving at the no-man's-land around Yangzhou City, Wang Cheng then flew into the sky. For Planet level beings, flying was like an innate instinct, effortless!

"Let's try full speed!"

Wang Cheng thought, and then, within a hundred meters around him, wisps of lightning light appeared.

Boom!

In an instant, Wang Cheng shot out fiercely.

After about ten seconds, Wang Cheng suddenly stopped.

"Amazing!"

Wang Cheng stood amidst the clouds, looking at a supply base below, slightly shocked.

He knew this supply base; it was about a hundred kilometers away from Jiangnan Base City. He had flown such a distance in just over ten seconds.

"Nearly ten kilometers per second, almost comparable to a normal Planet level ninth order being!" Wang Cheng mused inwardly, but he wasn't surprised.

The highest flight speed of a normal Planet level ninth order being should reach ten kilometers per second. Although Wang Cheng was only Planet level first order, his gene level was ten times that of an ordinary life form. He was much stronger than a normal Planet level first order being, likely comparable to an ordinary Planet level fourth or fifth order.

The key was that Wang Cheng also had the bonus from the Lightning Domain.

Without the Lightning Domain, Wang Cheng probably couldn't fly even three kilometers per second. But with the Lightning Domain, his speed had undergone a qualitative change.

"This is just a domain. If I can comprehend laws, I'll probably become even stronger!" Wang Cheng knew that his ability to fly at this speed was also related to the Lightning Domain being adept at flight. If he had comprehended the Gold Domain or Fire Domain, he probably wouldn't have had this effect.

But even so, it fully demonstrated the power of a domain!

With such a terrifying bonus, it was no wonder Hong, after comprehending the "Light Domain," directly claimed to be invincible at the Planet level!

"At this speed, as long as they aren't prepared, the satellites in the sky probably won't notice me!"

Wang Cheng looked up at the sky. He still wanted to keep a low profile. Although it wouldn't matter much if he were discovered, it was better not to be discovered if possible!

Wang Cheng didn't think further. He set his direction and rapidly flew away from the area.

About a minute later, Wang Cheng saw the ocean in the distance. After adjusting his direction several times, Wang Cheng soon arrived at his destination for this trip.

This was City No. 003, which was SH City before the Great Calamity.

The former Magic City had now become a Demon Cave, because the monsters gathered here were countless. Any martial artist without some capability who dared to come here would basically be seeking death.

Of course, that was for ordinary martial artists. With Wang Cheng's current strength, if he were willing, he could probably slaughter all the monsters in this city very quickly!

However, there was no need for that!

Wang Cheng landed on an abandoned building on the outskirts of City No. 003.

"It's a residential building, perfect!" Wang Cheng walked into the building. He easily broke open a locked door and stepped inside.

"Let's begin!"

Wang Cheng willed it, and a dense white light then emanated from his body.

Soon, clone after clone appeared around him. It wasn't until a long time later that Wang Cheng stopped. At this point, Wang Cheng had already created a total of thousands of clones, and each one was at Apprentice Tier 3!

After appearing, nine hundred and ninety of these clones were scattered throughout the residential building and immediately sat down cross-legged, entering the five-heart-facing-heaven posture to absorb cosmic energy. The remaining ten clones left the residential building and officially entered Base City No. 003.

As for Wang Cheng's main body, he found a bed and chose to lie down.

Enmm, of course, this wasn't Wang Cheng being lazy. After all, creating thousands of clones at once to train himself could hardly be considered laziness. The reason he lay down now was actually to comprehend the Lightning Law.

Without any secret manuals to guide him, Wang Cheng could clearly feel the existence of the Lightning Law, but he had no clue how to master it. Therefore, he could only choose this clumsy method of lying down and quietly sensing it.

As the saying goes, read a book a hundred times and its meaning will become clear. If one senses the laws more, they should naturally be able to grasp a trace!

Furthermore, when the universe was first born, there were no secret manuals. Didn't countless beings in the universe at that time still master laws?

Being slow didn't mean there was no way!

Inside the residential building, Wang Cheng's clones and the other nine hundred and ninety clones were working hard. Outside, not long after Wang Cheng's ten clones left, one of them encountered a monster.

It was a shadow, lying on the corpse of another monster and feasting. It wasn't very large, only about a meter long excluding its tail.

Its fur was dark and shiny, and in the sunlight, it even seemed to reflect light.

"Adult Shadow Cat!"

Wang Cheng quickly recognized the monster's true identity. It should be a Primary Beast General level monster.

"Encountering a Beast General level monster right after leaving, not bad!" Wang Cheng felt his luck was good.

Even though the clones Wang Cheng had split off were only equivalent to Apprentice Tier 3, High-level Warrior level, he was not afraid of this Beast General level Shadow Cat at all.

A domain was the perfect combination of primal energy, will, and body. Apprentice level clones couldn't project their primal energy externally, so they couldn't deploy a domain. However, this didn't mean Wang Cheng's clones were weak. After all, he had learned the complete Nine Heavens Thunder Blade!

The perfected Nine Heavens Thunder Blade wasn't much in the universe, but it could amplify strength by seven times.

In terms of strength, there was only an eight-fold difference between a High-level Warrior and a High-level War General. This meant that if Wang Cheng's clone went all out, he would have strength close to a High-level War General, so he naturally wasn't afraid of this Shadow Cat.

Of course, actual combat wasn't just about comparing strength and speed; there were many other influencing factors. This was actually why Wang Cheng had come out to fight.

No matter how strong one was, it was useless if they couldn't utilize their strength. Only through extensive combat could one truly accumulate practical experience.

"As my first opponent, let me see what you've got!" Wang Cheng approached the feeding Shadow Cat step by step. The other party clearly sensed Wang Cheng's approach, and soon let out a series of harsh cries from its mouth as a threat.

But unfortunately, Wang Cheng was unmoved. His steps forward were slow and steady.

Finally, the Shadow Cat was completely enraged. In an instant, it turned into an afterimage and disappeared from its spot.

Although angry, the Shadow Cat was very cunning. It didn't attack Wang Cheng head-on. Instead, it circled around to Wang Cheng's blind spot and then suddenly charged.

In an instant, Wang Cheng rolled on the spot, narrowly dodging the Shadow Cat's pounce.

"Nine Heavens Thunder Blade can amplify strength and speed, but it cannot amplify reaction speed. I rely on Nine Heavens Thunder Blade to have the advantage in strength and speed, but my reaction speed is inferior to this Shadow Cat, even far inferior!" Wang Cheng pondered the strengths and weaknesses of both sides. At the same time, he quickly got up, his eyes searching for the Shadow Cat that had disappeared again.

Perhaps due to his exceptional talent, Wang Cheng was quite calm even though this was his first real combat.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Wang Cheng felt a slight movement behind him. In an instant, without thinking, he directly kicked backward.

Bang!

The kick clearly landed solidly, and a black shadow was sent flying backward.

Undoubtedly, Wang Cheng had hit the Shadow Cat.

However, Wang Cheng wasn't sure if he had injured it. In Wang Cheng's perception, the Shadow Cat's body was very soft. His kick felt like stepping on cotton.

"Why isn't it coming out?"

Wang Cheng remained vigilant for a moment, then he was somewhat surprised to find that the Shadow Cat seemed to have already run away!

"..."

Wang Cheng cautiously moved forward to check. He quickly confirmed that the Shadow Cat had indeed run away.

It could only be said that it was worthy of being a monster that had survived in this "Demon Cave." Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, it immediately fled.

"I hope I can meet you again!"

Wang Cheng didn't care too much. He wasn't here with the goal of hunting monsters, otherwise, he wouldn't have come without any weapons.

If this Shadow Cat ran away now, there might be opportunities to meet it again in the future!

It could even be said that the possibility of meeting it again in the future was quite high.

After all, Base City No. 003 was this big. Wang Cheng had sent out a full ten clones to search for opponents here. It was normal to encounter this Shadow Cat again in the future.
