As the light emitted by the aerial Secret Pattern Diagram became increasingly dense, the entire Secret Pattern Diagram continued to press downwards.

Gradually, the area of activity for the nine surviving soldiers on the battlefield was further compressed.

Especially the four people who entered at the very beginning, their current range of movement is less than half of what it used to be.

Even the Rock Giant's attacks became more ferocious.

But that's not the hardest part.

The most difficult part was when a huge rocky hand suddenly emerged from a deep fissure in the earth!

The massive rocky hand was still surrounded by scalding hot liquid.

Four massive rocky hands, each a million kilometers wide, suddenly appeared without warning and grabbed directly at the four elite soldiers.

"Ah!!!"

Among the four soldiers, an elite soldier with dark, mysterious markings on his face was about to dodge when half of his Divine Body was grabbed by the giant rock hand!

The enormous rocky hand gripped the soldier tightly.

No matter how the soldier resisted, he could not break free even slightly.

At this moment, the Ancient Secret Pattern Diagram in the sky continued to descend while pouring out a large amount of Liuguang downwards.

"Aaaaaah!"

The bound soldier's eyes were filled with despair, and he could only watch helplessly as the Liuguang engulfed him.

At the same time, the enormous fist of the Rock Giant came crashing down on him from the other side.

"Bang bang bang!"

A series of punches.

Under the onslaught of the Liuguang, this elite soldier, possessing extraordinary strength and two Mechanical Flow Treasure, was annihilated alive Annihilation Mystery all his divine power and perishing.

"We can't let the giant rock grab us!"

At this moment, the other surviving soldiers unleashed their full power, daring not to hold back in the slightest.

Even the two Azure Dragon Army soldiers looked solemn and dared not relax as much as before.

Although Yang Yu was still in control, he was now more wary.

After all, the giant rock hand swung its paddle extremely fast and stayed close to the Rock Giant. Once caught, one would suffer a double attack from the Rock Giant and the Liuguang in a very short time.

"If this continues, it's only a matter of time before these elite soldiers fall."

Yang Yu still had the leisure to observe other battlefields.

Really.

At this moment, apart from Yang Yu and the two Azure Dragon Army soldiers who were temporarily out of danger.

The other surviving soldiers were all trapped in a desperate situation.

If before it was just a desperate escape, now it's a life-or-death crisis!

In an instant.

The situation on the field then completely deteriorated.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The soldiers, whose divine power was already greatly depleted, were now facing an ever-compressing space. Finally, some soldiers were unable to dodge in time and were grabbed by the giant rock hand, dying under the Rock Giant's fist.

As the Ancient Secret Pattern Diagram continued to descend, countless Liuguang bombarded down from the sky, making the duration of the Liuguang bombardment increasingly shorter. As a result, the soldiers were hit by more and more Liuguang, and even their Movement Technique began to become distorted.

These soldiers, burning with divine power, howled helplessly, each unleashing their proudest Secret Technique with all their might.

They may attack or flee.

Try every possible way to make yourself last longer.

"No!"

A soldier who had been flying and transformed into a streak of colorful Liuguang was suddenly grabbed by a giant rock hand that appeared out of nowhere. A Dark Red Rock Giant followed closely behind, pounding the soldier with its two large fists.

In an instant, the soldier was completely killed and turned into nothingness, leaving only some Battle Armor and treasures behind.

Meanwhile, other soldiers of slightly weaker strength were also grabbed by the giant rock hand and perished under the attacks of the Liuguang and the Rock Giant.

But Yang Yu, as always, swaggered along the edge of the battlefield, constantly toying with the Rock Giant and the rock hand.

Even the Will Attack that appeared were completely ignored by Yang Yu.

"Roar! Roar! Roar!"

When only six soldiers remained on the battlefield, the Dark Red Rock Giant roared with excitement.

Following closely...

Wow!

The Rock Giant and the giant rock hand all turned into Crimson Liquid, flowing back into the depths of the earth's fissure.

Even the Battle Armor and treasures of the fallen soldiers were swept into the crevice.

At the same time, these Small World also vanished.

In the ancient, Silver-Gray Hall, four commanders were granted titles.

The strongest among them was even an Eternal True God, while the other three were also Void True God. At this moment, all four of them watched the light screen with great excitement, observing Yang Yu's performance on the second floor of the Wu Qi Lou.

On the screen.

Clad in dark Battle Armor, Yang Yu effortlessly dodged the giant rock hand in mid-air, casually toying with the Rock Giant, and even now, he managed to keep the countless streaks of Liuguang shooting down from touching him.

"Tsk tsk... This Sergeant Thunder's Movement Technique are ridiculously strong."

"Exactly, he hasn't even used his divine power technique yet. I really don't know where his limit is."

The Four Great Commanders were shocked by what they saw on the screen.

They had seen many Movement Technique Lord of Law.

But to be this powerful is simply unheard of!

Logically speaking, someone with such strong Movement Technique should also be very strong in other aspects, and should be able to easily break through to the True God realm by following the Law Path.

However, all four leaders knew that many ambitious Lord of Law were unwilling to become mediocre True God.

Instead, he wanted to follow the Divine Power Path and become True God with an incomparably strong and profound foundation!

The four commanders all speculated that this Sergeant Thunder, might be the ambitious Lord of Law.

"This second level is no challenge for him at all. Let's see if the third level can cause him any trouble," Burly Commander, the strongest among them and at the Eternal True God Level, with a smile.

The other three commanders were also aware of this.

On the battlefield.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

As the trials faded.

The two soldiers who survived were utterly astonished and overwhelmed with emotion.

If it had been just a few seconds later, they would have given up completely.

Fortunately, they persevered in the end.

Although his strength was less than one-thousandth of his peak, he still managed to survive.

As long as there is life, there is hope!

Swish, swish, swish!

Six beams of Azure Light Pillar descended, enveloping Yang Yu and his group of six, before instantly teleporting them away.

The Wu Qi Lou Third Floor is a vast grassland.

As Yang Yu and his six companions appeared.

"Finally, more soldiers have arrived."

"This batch is good; six people came directly."

"This third level is taking forever to collect; I wonder when I'll finally have enough."

A series of sounds came from behind.

Clearly, these soldiers had been waiting for some time.

As soon as Yang Yu appeared, he glanced around at the distance and saw several figures scattered in the distance, five of them at a glance.

Among them were figures of soldiers and figures of Exotic Beast.

Just as Yang Yu was carefully observing his surroundings...

The other soldiers who entered with him were so frightened by Yang Yu that they quickly hid away, and even used Secret Technique to seal the Space Fluctuation in the vast surrounding area.

Even the two Azure Dragon Army soldiers were no exception.

Although they were both strong, they still faced extremely difficult resistance in the final moments of the second level.

In contrast, Yang Yu remained calm and composed, as if he could never see the limits.

This composure made the two of them extremely wary.

"Um?"

"This..."

The soldiers in front were stunned by what they saw. They weren't fools; they could all see that just by standing there, that Mang River Army Soldier had scared the soldiers behind him into keeping their distance. Clearly, his strength was on a completely different level.

"Let's stay away too."

The five soldiers in front quickly distanced themselves from Yang Yu.

This scene made Yang Yu shake his head and smile.

Time passed, and the days went by.

On the fifth day, another group of soldiers arrived, but this time only two soldiers survived.

Not long after, the sixth batch of soldiers arrived, consisting of three surviving soldiers.

Over the next few hours, soldiers arrived one after another.

Nearly two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

On the grassland on the Wu Qi Lou Third Floor, a total of 37 soldiers had gathered. Some of the newer soldiers at the back knew some of the soldiers at the front, and after some conversation, they learned how terrifying Yang Yu was.

Many others also avoided it from afar.

Yet, still somewhat confident, he didn't dodge.

"Pshaw! A mere tribal warrior has scared you like this."

A giant serpent, its body covered in blue scales and stretching for tens of millions of kilometers, coiled and twisted, flicking its long tongue as it looked disdainfully at Yang Yu, who sat cross-legged tens of thousands of meters away. "Before I joined the army, I had already killed tens of thousands of tribal warriors. I wonder how many blows a mere tribesman can withstand from me."

As it spoke, the giant snake looked at Yang Yu provocatively.

"With your enormous Divine Body and three Mechanical Flow Treasure, you naturally have nothing to fear. If we were like you, we wouldn't be afraid either."

Some soldiers from the same Exotic Beast faction in the distance said this.

Although these Exotic Beasts were all quite large, with some even reaching tens of thousands of kilometers in size, they were no match for the Green Armored Giant Snake that was tens of millions of kilometers long.

"Hmph! Just you wait and see, I'll show that tribal warrior what's what."

The Green Armored Giant Snake looked confidently at Yang Yu.

His eyes flashed with intense killing intent. "This soldier is so strong, he must have a lot of treasures on him. Even if I can't complete the Title Mission this time, I'll definitely seize the opportunity to grab as many treasures as possible, and then exchange them for enough Military Merits to help me break through to True God."

The Green Armored Giant Snake was powerful and knew that no one had completed this Title Mission for countless years, so it naturally made multiple preparations.

Provocation and fear all around.

Yang Yu ignored them all.

He simply sat there quietly, cross-legged.

Finally.

With the arrival of the three more soldiers, the Grassland World on the Wu Qi Lou Third Floor finally stirred.

"Boom!"

A huge vortex, resembling waves, suddenly appeared in the sky above the grassland.

The forty surviving soldiers all looked up at the sky.

Buzz!

Spacetime rippled like waves, and Yang Yu and his forty soldiers, no matter where they were on the grassland, were instantly teleported to the very bottom of the giant vortex.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, beams of light descended from the vortex high in the sky.

It completely surrounds a vast area of grassland below, approximately one billion kilometers in diameter, effectively isolating this area from the outside world.

Meanwhile, the diameter of the vortex above also reaches one billion kilometers.

Wow~

Suddenly, a giant eye appeared in the center of the swirling water high in the sky.

The enormous eye looked down, and for a moment, the soldiers below, including Yang Yu, felt as if their souls had frozen.

"Wu Qi Lou!"

Suddenly, an aged voice echoed in the minds of every soldier, "The first three levels are fraught with danger, life or death."

"But as long as you survive the first three levels, there will be no more dangers of death. In fact, starting from the fourth level, there will be various inheritances, rewards, and so on."

"Therefore, the higher you climb, the greater the benefits you will reap."

The aged voice said, "Of course, you must all survive to get through this third level."

A giant eye high in the sky looked down at the forty soldiers below.

The aged voice continued to echo:

"Based on the strength you demonstrated in the first two levels, only thirteen of you forty soldiers are qualified to survive this third level!"

"The thirteen surviving soldiers will be able to enter the fourth level and receive numerous benefits."

"Entering the warship is forbidden until the third layer of crisis has been overcome; otherwise, it will be treated as a failure, resulting in Annihilation Mystery."

The old voice startled all the soldiers.

There are only thirteen spots left for survival?

Immediately, many of the forty soldiers felt worried. Those who could endure until the third level were all extraordinary, but now more than half of them were going to die!

Apart from a few individuals like Yang Yu, the other soldiers dared not say for sure that they would survive.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Suddenly, several explosions rang out in succession.

The Green Armored Giant Snake, its tail gleaming with a rich blue light, lashed out repeatedly, instantly Annihilation Mystery him to nothingness.

With a flick of its tail, the giant snake soldier pocketed all the unfortunate soldier's treasures.

Yang Yu was slightly taken aback, but not surprised. He swept his Soul Power over and instantly refined and absorbed the soldier's True Spirit.

"What!"

"It killed the sergeant."

The other surviving soldiers looked on in astonishment.

The one who just made the move was Exotic Beast serpent soldier. He sneered, "Wu Qi Lou said only thirteen could live, but he didn't forbid us from fighting. The more we kill, the fewer opponents we have. Hahaha, you can all die!"

It should be noted that most of the soldiers were seriously injured after just experiencing the torment of the second layer of the 'Small World'. Although they used divine power recovery treasures, the recovery of divine power takes a long time. Most of the soldiers are not in good condition now, and the weakest of them are not even one-thousandth of their peak strength.

"Escape!"

"Careful!"

"Walk!"

The heavily wounded soldiers hurriedly fled in all directions, trying to keep their distance from the soldiers with powerful auras.

However, the billion-kilometer radius covered by the Divine Eye high in the sky was impossible to escape; no matter how one tried to flee, they would be confined to this area... For a time, chaos reigned within the Divine Eye Light Domain.

Yang Yu stood there, ignoring his surroundings, and not a single soldier dared to confront Yang Yu. Even the most arrogant Exotic Beast giant snake soldier didn't attack Yang Yu from the start.

"Boom!"

The enormous Divine Eye high in the sky suddenly lit up.

Golden rays spread downwards.

"Ah!"

"This is..."

Some soldiers who were still fighting suddenly felt their consciousness being impacted. Many soldiers temporarily stopped fighting and carefully resisted the Will Impact.

No one knows what danger lies on the third level. If it's a terrifying danger, then for them to be distracted by fighting is tantamount to courting death.

But in just a short while, three of the forty soldiers had fallen, all of whom had been seriously injured and on the verge of death on the second floor.

Now they were easily crushed to death, and even their Mechanical Flow Treasure, armor, and weapons were stolen.

"Fortunately, the Mang River Army Soldier didn't move." The two Azure Dragon Army soldiers looked at Yang Yu from afar, then looked up at the Divine Eye in the sky.

The soldiers all looked up at the Divine Eye.

The Divine Eye emitted endless golden light, enveloping the area below. The powerful Will Impact was something that all the soldiers could withstand.

"What kind of danger lies on this third level?"

"Just that Divine Eye?"

"The second layer initially only contained Secret Pattern Diagram, but later Rock Giant and other strange dangers appeared. Who knows what other bizarre dangers might emerge in the third layer?" The soldiers felt uneasy, and some even flew up, afraid to approach the ground for fear that something might suddenly appear on the grassland.

Endless golden light shone on the grassland and on every soldier.

The power is also gradually increasing.

"The Will Impact is getting stronger!"

"Could the Wu Qi Lou Third Floor be a test of willpower?" The soldiers resisted fiercely, none willing to give up easily. After all, they knew that the third level was the last one with a real risk of death; from the fourth level onwards, there were numerous benefits and rewards. Who wouldn't give it their all?

Yang Yu endured the Will Impact and sighed inwardly. No wonder the seriously wounded soldiers hadn't received treatment; it turned out to be a test of willpower.

Even if the Divine Body is lost, it will have a significant impact on combat power, but a very small impact on willpower.

"The intensity of the Will Impact is increasing."

Yang Yu turned to look into the distance, where the Exotic Beast serpent, now transformed into Green Armored Mechanical Creature, was wreaking havoc. "This bit of Will Impact has no effect on me at all. While the Will Impact is still weak, I'll try to kill as many weak soldiers as possible and grab as many treasures as possible!"

Whoosh!

Seeing this, Yang Yu also activated his Dark Thunder Wing, his speed immediately soaring, and he joined the battle.

The opportunity to plunder treasures on a grand scale within the Wu Qi Lou lies on this third floor.

Fighting was prohibited after that.

Yang Yu naturally had to seize this opportunity.
