However, the anomaly in this sea area was not detected by the monitoring devices that covered the entire Earth. The global Smart Brain still thought it was just a normal hunt between sea Monsters.

And so, the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub kept eating and eating.

It continuously devours large numbers of sea Monsters.

Even so, after devouring so many Monsters in less than two days, its body length barely changed...

However, this was a disaster for the Monsters in the surrounding sea!

The deaths of numerous Lord-level Monster finally attracted the attention of the King of this sea area—a powerful Planetary Level Monsters named 'Dragon Turtle'!

Being able to occupy an area spanning thousands of miles in the heart of the Pacific Ocean, this Dragon Turtle is quite powerful even among Planetary Level Monsters.

After all, it existed before the Grand Nirvana, and later successfully mutated, and survived the most difficult period, and has been cultivating until now.

"Awooo~~"

The enormous Dragon Turtle, resembling a mountain range, moved swiftly across the seabed.

The diameter of its shell alone exceeds three hundred meters. If this Dragon Turtle were to surface, it would be like an island in the sea. Unfortunately, because of its enormous size, it cannot travel inland along rivers. Otherwise...

It will likely die at Yang Yu's hands much earlier.

It becomes nourishment for the Soul Devour Secret Technique.

"How dare they kill so many of my men on my territory! I will kill them, I will kill them!!!"

At this moment, the Dragon Turtle, which was living an exceptionally comfortable life, roared inwardly.

Planetary Level Monsters, some are even smarter and more cunning than some humans, and this Dragon Turtle is quite intelligent.

"So that's where it was."

Led by its Monsters lord, the enormous Dragon Turtle swiftly advanced, invading its territory and wreaking havoc. It had to kill its opponent!

If it doesn't fight, it means it has surrendered and is willing to withdraw from this territory, allowing the other side to occupy it. This is the rule of the sea Monsters.

"Woo!"

"Woo!"

The Golden Horned Behemoth Cub, which was almost a day old, was very unhappy. It had devoured a large number of seemingly decent Monsters in the sea. According to its inherited memories, Monsters of that size should be quite powerful, and eating them should have brought it many benefits.

But despite eating so much, it didn't help much.

It's far less useful than even one ten-thousandth of the eggshell!

"Woo!"

Dissatisfaction and anger filled the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub's mind, and it decided to lie down and rest before considering eating.

After all, it was just a baby less than a day old.

Suddenly--

The Golden Horned Behemoth Cub slightly raised its head to look into the distance, a faint golden light shining in its cold eyes. In an instant, its golden pupils seemed to see very far into the deep, dark seabed.

"Waaah~~"

The Golden Horned Behemoth Cub quickly stood up, let out an excited growl, flicked its tail, and charged forward like lightning.

It seems it has finally found delicious food!

In the ocean.

A black Monsters sixteen meters long and a behemoth with a shell diameter of three hundred meters, the 'Dragon Turtle', finally meet!

The two sides were only a hundred meters apart.

The Dragon Turtle's enormous eyes, as tall as a three-story building, stared at the tiny creature before it.

Only sixteen meters long?

He's really tiny!

"What kind of creature is it? I've never seen it before. It has sharp claws on its limbs, so is it a land animal? It has wings, so is it a bird of prey?"

This Dragon Turtle is very intelligent. As Monsters that has lived from the Great Nirvana Period to the present day, its knowledge is naturally extraordinary. It recognizes almost all the Monsters that still exist in the ocean.

But no matter how it looked at it, it couldn't recognize which kind of Monsters this 'little thing' was!

Judging from how easily it moves through the sea, it is clearly also adept at underwater maneuvering.

A monster that looks like a land Monsters, has bird wings, but lives in the Water Domain...

What the heck?

Even though the Dragon Turtle is quite intelligent, it was confused at this moment.

"Woo!"

The newly hatched Golden Horned Behemoth Cub let out an excited growl; the Dragon Turtle in front of it looked delicious!

A pair of wings covered in scales suddenly unfolded.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub turned into a blur, while the Dragon Turtle leisurely stared at the 'little one'. Known for its defense, even other Planetary Level Monsters would not be able to easily harm it.

"Hiss hiss hiss hiss~~"

The Dragon Turtle, resembling an underwater island, trembled violently. The sharp wings of the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub grazed its shell, causing it to crack. Fortunately, the shell was very thick, so it was temporarily unharmed.

"This little one..."

The Dragon Turtle stared in disbelief at the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub floating in the seawater ahead.

"Woo~ woo~" The Golden Horned Behemoth Cub seemed to be very happy and let out two cries.

Whoosh!

This time, the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub did not spread its wings, but instead transformed into a straight line, rushing to the giant head of the Dragon Turtle almost Teleportation. Then, the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub extended its two forelimbs, each of which had five toes.

And at this moment.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!

The toes, which are usually tucked in, stick out like blades!

Call!

With a single claw, it sliced across the Dragon Turtle's head, and the hard, scaled Dragon Turtle's head was directly torn apart by those sharp claws!

The sharp claws plunged straight into the Dragon Turtle's head.

In an instant, his brains splattered out!

"That's too fast!"

The Dragon Turtle's enormous eyes showed only a trace of terror before it died.

Quick!

Even Planetary Level Monsters the Dragon Turtle couldn't dodge it!

High attack power!

It is so powerful that it can kill the Planetary Level Monsters 'Dragon Turtle', which is known for its defense, with a single claw strike.

"Woo!"

The Golden Horned Behemoth Cub excitedly began to devour the entire Dragon Turtle, which was the size of an underwater island. However, the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub Dragon Turtle it much easier to eat than it would eat an eggshell.

In just a few minutes, the enormous Dragon Turtle was reduced to nothing!

The Monsters lords that were already nearby had scattered and fled in terror...

There was no way around it; this Golden Horned Behemoth Cub had a notorious reputation.

Now that their leader has been easily killed, the rest of them wouldn't even be enough to fill the opponent's teeth.

"Mmm~" After finishing its meal, the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub lay down contentedly and closed its eyes.

I'm finally feeling a little full.

And at this moment--

Its body length has finally increased by about 0.1 meters!

That's all.

The birth of the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub has sparked a series of bloody hunts in the Pacific Ocean, though humans on Earth have yet to realize it.

Even if satellite surveillance captures it, it will only be considered a normal battle between sea Monsters.

The satellite will only issue a warning when Planetary Level Nine Monsters is born.

Then it will be resolved by the strongest among humans, or by powerful slaves.

And at this time, it was January 1, 2059, in the Primal Universe time.

At this moment, Yang Yu was still quietly cultivating in Chaos City, constantly absorbing new Law Comprehension and analyzing the Time Law Essence.

It has to be said that the Time Law Essence becomes incredibly difficult to grasp later on!

Even though Yang Yu's current Zhuliuyin Clone's soul consciousness is as powerful as the World Lord Peak, and its will is at the Immortal Level.

His comprehension also rose to an extremely high level.

However, even with the assistance and guidance of the Time True Explanation, the Thunder Chaos Monument, the Marquis Zhenlei, and the Venerable Gui Yi, the progress was getting slower and slower.

Three years have passed in the outside world, while one year has passed in the Initial Universe.

Yang Yu then analyzed the Time Law Essence.

The difficulty increases exponentially as the analysis of the Time Law progresses.

"No wonder Lian Luo, even as the champion of the Genius Competition, with his immense perseverance, exceptional comprehension, and composure, spent a full three thousand years analyzing the Essence of Space Law! Even so, he can be considered Peerless Genius, appearing only once every tens of thousands of epochs."

On the rooftop, Yang Yu pondered, "I've spent 11 years comprehending the Time Law Essence. This speed is already incredibly fast, but can I comprehend the Time Law Essence in the next 19 years?"

"Difficult, difficult, difficult."

Even a genius like Yang Yu is uncertain, despite having the Zhu Zhuliuyin Clone, a darling of the Time Law.

"Never mind that, I'll focus all my energy on cultivation first. I'll figure out as much as I can in these thirty years!"

Having calmed his slightly agitated mood, Yang Yu once again immersed himself in the Law Ocean, continuously comprehending the laws of Lightning Law and Time Law.

On Earth.

Luo Feng, who was 21 years old at the time, had successfully broken through to the Star Level two years ago using the Bloodline Evolution Agent, and in the past two years, he had raised his level to the Star Level 6!

He also mastered the core Secret Technique 'Soul Seal' of the Yunmo Planet Lineage, reaching the minor completion stage, and mastered the Body Possession Technique!

The Soul Defense Secret Technique 'Void Tower' has also successfully reached the first level of the Pagoda Realm.

He also has a good grasp of other combat-related Secret Technique.

Babata was very satisfied with this outstanding learning speed.

As Luo Feng's strength increased, his comprehension also improved accordingly.

What's most remarkable is Luo Feng's unwavering will!

My mood is also very good!

This pleased Babata greatly.

Following this trajectory, even if Luo Feng's final result in this year's Genius Competition is not ideal, as long as he continues to cultivate, he will eventually become a powerful figure!

This was Yang Yu's assessment after reviewing Luo Feng's performance over the years, Babata highly agreed!

Of course, this was the result of Luo Feng's cultivation on his own before the Golden Horned Behemoth appeared.

But fate can be so unpredictable sometimes.

The Golden Horned Behemoth seemed to be destined to appear, appearing just when it was meant to.

Another half month has passed.

The Golden Horned Behemoth Cub, now two meters taller, had reached the Planetary Level 4!

It is already a veritable overlord in the Hawaii Waters of the Pacific Ocean!

Its foraging grounds extend for thousands of miles across the surrounding seas.

Such a large area and such obvious activity were eventually detected by surveillance systems covering the entire Earth.

This day.

Babata looked at the monitoring instruments around the Solar System with boredom.

After finding no movement, the camera switched to the central monitoring station on Earth.

With the processing speed of Sentient AI, the anomaly in the sea was detected in less than a second.

After zooming in and making the surveillance footage clearer.

Babata immediately screamed!

"This is???"

Incredulous, Babata immediately sprang up from the soft sofa, his blood-red eyes fixed on the scene of the young Golden Horned Behemoth hunting its prey.

"It really is the Golden Horned Behemoth!"

"And it's in infant form! How did it get here???"

Babata reviewed the rare data copied from Yang Yu's Primal Secret Realm Member privileges several times, and finally confirmed that this was indeed the Golden Horned Behemoth, one of the twelve Peak Bloodline among the Starry Sky Behemoth!

He is hailed as the darling of the Gold Origin Law, and possesses the rare Clone Talent, as well as a vast amount of Inherited Memory!

"Most importantly, this Golden Horned Behemoth has obviously only hatched recently, and its strength is only at the Planetary Level 4! Isn't Luo Feng's specialty the Gold Origin Law? This is truly a godsend!"

"Luo Feng, Luo Feng!" The moment he confirmed it, Babata called out to Luo Feng in his mind.

"What's the matter?" At this moment, Luo Feng was taking a walk with a beautiful woman in Mingyue Residential Quarter.

As luck would have it, this woman was none other than Xu Xin, whom Luo Feng had bumped into while out shopping during a break from his cultivation!

Fate intervened, and Luo Feng and Xu Xin still met and fell in love.

"A tremendous opportunity has arrived!" Babata exclaimed. "You must return to me immediately!"

"Well, okay then." Although Luo Feng was reluctant to part with Xu Xin, Babata was unusually serious, so Luo Feng could only apologize to Xu Xin and then rush to Babata's location as quickly as possible.

He summoned Luo Feng, along with the Universe Level 8 Spirit Reader slave. Babata waved his hand and produced a blue triangular spaceship.

Babata was going all out to get to the Golden Horned Behemoth as quickly as possible.

"Whoosh~"

The hatch closed, and then a blue phantom streaked across the sky. Just over ten seconds later, the spacecraft came to a stop over a certain area of Pacific Ocean.

"Kent, control this Monsters. Remember, only use Illusion Realm to control it, don't kill it!"

Babata first showed the appearance of the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub, and then gave the order.

"Yes!"

Then, the Universe Level 8 Spirit Reader slave Kent transformed into a streak of Liuguang and plunged straight into the depths of the Pacific Ocean below.

His powerful Spiritual Force had long ago detected the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub thousands of meters below the surface of the sea.

However, Kent was just an ordinary Universe Level slave and had no idea that the Monsters below was the infamous Golden Horned Behemoth among the Starry Sky Behemoth!

Babata called Kent over just in case, so that Luo Feng could have a 100% chance of possessing the body!

"Babata, why did you call me here in such a hurry?" Luo Feng finally had a chance to ask.

"Hmph, why?" Babata smirked. "You've really hit the jackpot this time!"

"Haven't you always wanted to surpass your idol Yang Yu? Now's your chance!"

Babata pointed downwards and said, "The Monsters I just showed Kent was the Golden Horned Behemoth! If you possess it, not only will your cultivation speed skyrocket, but you'll also gain its Clone Talent. Once you choose the Clone, your future will truly be limitless!"

"It's not impossible for them to surpass Yang Yu!"

"Hmm? The Golden Horned Behemoth?" Luo Feng's eyes lit up upon hearing this. "The Golden Horned Behemoth, one of the twelve Peak Bloodline of the cosmic Starry Sky Behemoth?"

Thanks to Yang Yu's access to the Virtual Universe Company, Babata has acquired a great deal of rare knowledge that is impossible for outsiders to obtain over the years.

Babata easily copied the detailed information about the Starry Sky Behemoth and had Luo Feng read it as an encyclopedia during his cultivation to enrich his knowledge and experience, preparing him for his future adventures in the universe.

That's why Luo Feng was able to recall it so quickly.

"Haha, yes!" Babata laughed happily, "Now you know why I was in such a hurry to call you here."

"Hehe, thanks a lot, Babata," Luo Feng said with a smile.

If I successfully possess the Golden Horned Behemoth, then my future will truly be limitless!

The more Luo Feng recalled the detailed information about the Golden Horned Behemoth, the more excited he became.

"The opportunity to change your destiny has arrived!"

Luo Feng then nervously stared at the sea below.

By this time, Kent had already locked onto the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub.

With overwhelming strength, they easily captured the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub that was trying to escape, and, following Babata's orders, hypnotized and controlled the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub, which was currently only at the Planetary Level 4.

"Whoosh~"

The seawater parted.

The towering Kent used a huge, specially made metal net to 'lift' the hypnotized Golden Horned Behemoth Cub out.

"Kent, you did a great job," Babata praised happily. "Take it inside the spaceship."

"Yes, Master!"

As they spoke, the blue spaceship's hatch opened, Kent easily used his Mental Force to bring the Golden Horned Behemoth Cub inside.

The three then entered the spaceship, and the hatch closed.
