As Xiao Yu's cool voice rang in Su Zhe's mind, Xiao Yu projected a virtual map for him.

Five flashing red dots were clearly marked on the map, with their strength levels noted beside them—three at Stellar Level Five and two at Stellar Level Six.

They were strong, but not strong enough to matter.

Su Zhe looked to the right. A dense forest stretched in that direction. He guessed the squad had been after the Single-Horned Iron Rhinos he'd just dealt with, but unfortunately for them, he'd gotten there first.

"Master, they're coming your way."

Xiao Yu reminded him.

"Good."

Su Zhe nodded. His figure instantly became a blurred shadow, silently blending into the shadows of the trees as he sped toward his targets.

"Where did those Single-Horned Iron Rhinos go?"

A few adventurers were chatting in the forest not far away.

"They should be around here. They can't have gone far."

"Once we take them out, we'll qualify as Universe Trainee Mercenaries."

"Yeah."

They had no idea Su Zhe had already located them. Using his Camouflage ability, he hid among the trees, blending almost perfectly into his surroundings.

Su Zhe concealed his presence like the most seasoned Hunter, lying in wait in the shadow of a massive ancient tree.

Through the layers of branches and leaves, he clearly saw the five-man squad.

The squad was gathered around a vicious beast they'd just killed, skillfully cutting out the valuable materials. Two of them held swords and kept watch, while a third used a short knife to carve up the beast. The other two chatted nearby, both empty-handed. They were probably Psychics.

Su Zhe frowned slightly. Psychics were among the most troublesome opponents.

But as long as he drew them into his Domain, even Psychics wouldn't escape death.

"Lucky us. We took down an Azure Scale Beast at Stellar Level Six. Just these scales alone will fetch a lot of Black Dragon Coins." One of the Stellar Level Six warriors said this, a conspicuous scar on his face and a long sword in his hand.

Another second-tier Force Weapon.

Su Zhe sighed inwardly. The adventurers who came to this World of World Lords really were no ordinary people.

They'd made thorough preparations before coming here, and naturally, they'd chosen the best weapons.

"Stay alert. Other squads could show up in this godforsaken place at any moment."

Another Stellar Level Six adventurer, who had no weapon in his hands, warily scanned their surroundings. His invisible Psychic Power radiated outward, but in the Thunder World, Psychic Power was suppressed and couldn't spread very far.

Su Zhe was hiding just beyond the reach of his Psychic Power.

Thanks to the detector aboard the Black Ink Star Ship, Su Zhe knew all about the squad, while they knew nothing about him. That was the advantage of having better information.

Two Psychics and three warriors. The Stellar Level Six warrior was probably the squad leader... Su Zhe thought silently.

Kill the Psychic first!

In the blink of an eye, Su Zhe had figured out the squad's composition and chosen his target.

And once he'd picked his target...

He attacked!!!

With a single thought, Su Zhe sprang into action without hesitation!

To him, these adventurers were no different from vicious beasts. They were all "resources" he could use to grow stronger.

Besides.

The most dangerous thing in the Thunder World was other adventurers. Whether they wanted the Single-Horned Iron Rhino horns to pass their test or the gear Su Zhe carried, they would have attacked him regardless.

BOOM!

The Deep Black Flame Domain erupted without warning. Su Zhe had already closed to within a thousand meters of them, and his Domain of Fire instantly engulfed all five!

"Not good! It's a Domain!"

"Enemy attack!"

"That's... a Domain of Fire!"

The ease on the five squad members' faces instantly gave way to shock.

The Domain of Fire pressed down on them with tremendous force.

The Genetic Origin Energy and Psychic Power inside their bodies began to drain beyond their control. The Void Devouring Flame was at work. Trapped within Su Zhe's Domain, they couldn't absorb energy from the universe to replenish themselves!

Whoosh!

At the sound of rushing wind, the Stellar Level Six Psychic whipped around. Su Zhe had appeared behind him like a ghost.

Clang!

The Psychic reacted extremely quickly.

Almost the instant Su Zhe attacked, twelve shuttle-shaped Psychic Weapons appeared around him, spinning rapidly and joining together into a spiked, angular shield that blocked Su Zhe's strike!

"Die!"

The scar-faced warrior reacted too, thrusting his long sword at Su Zhe.

Su Zhe twisted sharply to dodge the attack. At the same time, under the five men's disbelieving gazes, his right arm extended abruptly, transforming into a spear that plunged into the Psychic's chest!

Pfft!

The spear, wrapped in Void Devouring Flame, pierced through the Force Battle Suit covering the Psychic's body and impaled his heart. It absorbed the energy inside him, replenishing Su Zhe's losses.

The Stellar Level Six Psychic hadn't even had time to get away from Su Zhe. Once a Psychic let a warrior get close, there was only one outcome: death!

Even as he died, the Psychic couldn't understand how Su Zhe had done it.

Before reaching immortality, when the body still had fatal weaknesses, this ability of Su Zhe's could catch an enemy completely off guard.

After reaching immortality and forming an Immortal Divine Body, attacks had the same effect no matter which part of the body they hit. The ability wouldn't be nearly as powerful as it was now.

[Devoured a Stellar Level Six Psychic, gained 81920 Devour Points] [Psychic level increased: Stellar Level Two]

After devouring the Psychic, Su Zhe had no time to receive his memories.

He spun around and immediately engaged the scar-faced warrior in a fight.

"Second Brother!"

The scar-faced warrior roared. Seeing the Psychic die filled him with grief, but the speed of his sword strikes grew even greater!

The streams of wind intent couldn't break through Su Zhe's defenses directly, but the energy he expended was very real!

"Hm?"

Something wasn't right.

Su Zhe frowned and instantly put some distance between himself and the scar-faced warrior.

This guy... there was something wrong with him!

"Hahaha!"

The scar-faced warrior laughed wildly.

"A Domain! So this is a Domain!"

While enduring the pressure of Su Zhe's Domain, he had actually grasped a Domain of Wind!

His Domain of Wind had only just emerged, but it still carved out a small pocket of space within Su Zhe's Domain of Fire, pushing back against it!

"Boss, keep it up!"

"Kill him! Avenge Second Brother!"

The remaining three adventurers shouted at the same time.
