After finishing his daily training, Huang Wuye called Dasheng into the Virtual Universe.
The moment he entered the Virtual Universe, Huang Wuye's eyes widened! He stared at the boundless land beneath his feet, a little dazed. Although he had long known that Swallowed Star was full of enormous continents, he still couldn't truly grasp their scale without seeing one for himself. He couldn't help but feel astonished.
The continent stretched endlessly in every direction, with rows of distinctive buildings reaching from his feet to the horizon. Countless vehicles came and went, like grains of sand in the sea, stirring not even a ripple. He tried to fly, but it made no difference. The distant edge remained just as far away, just as impossibly beyond reach. Only now did Huang Wuye truly understand what hundreds of millions of people meant, and realize how small he was. A Planetary Level warrior was like a speck of dust in this vast, boundless world. His resolve to grow stronger only deepened. Since arriving in this world, he had never been more determined to become stronger.
Because he didn't want to be a speck of dust in this endless world, fading away with the passage of time. Otherwise, there would be no difference between him and the person he had been before, despite having come to this wondrous world.
Only now did Huang Wuye suddenly understand what he had always wanted! He wanted to stand at the pinnacle of this world, and leave his mark on the long river of history. A person had to do something with their life, didn't they? Huang Wuye's state of mind took a great step forward.
"Boss, since this is your first time logging into the Virtual Universe, we've automatically appeared on the Desolate God Clan's home planet. This continent has a diameter of several light-years. The humans living here are all from the Desolate God Clan and its affiliated forces." After seeing Huang Wuye come back to himself, Dasheng, standing on his shoulder, spoke up.
"Oh, I see. Search for the nearest Killing Field first," Huang Wuye said. He had originally wanted to explore the colorful wonders of the universe, but after seeing this vast continent, he had lost interest.
"Sure, Boss. I checked, and the nearest Killing Field is three hundred thousand kilometers away. But we can teleport there using our internal privileges," Dasheng said after searching.
"Then let's hurry over."
"So this is the Killing Field?" Huang Wuye and Dasheng appeared in a vast hall in the blink of an eye. It was as large as a major city, though it wasn't very crowded.
"What a grand place." Huang Wuye looked at the enormous "blood drop" backdrop in the hall and couldn't help praising it.
"How could it not be grand? This place is incredibly expensive, Boss. At Planetary Level Nine, you have to pay 0.07 Universe Coins a day.
It might not be much for you, Boss, but it's still more than most people can afford."
Dasheng couldn't help remarking that the daily fee was enough to buy a large warehouse complex on a small planet.
Here, it only covered one day!
"But plenty of people are still willing to come. After all, in the Killing Field, you can face any kind of opponent you want."
The Killing Field! It was an excellent place to train through combat. As long as you paid, you could submit any request to the Virtual Universe System. For example, Huang Wuye was Planetary Level Nine, with a physical strength amplification of thirty times, a Gene Multiplier of five, a nine-layer domain, and beginner-level understanding of the Law of Fire and the Law of Space.
It was very difficult to find a suitable opponent in reality. In the real world, he could hardly find anyone appropriate to train with.
But in the Killing Field, he could request an opponent slightly stronger than himself, or several opponents of comparable strength to attack him.
He could even request a hundred genius Planetary Level Nine warriors and spirit readers to surround and attack him.
Such encounters were hard to come by in reality. But in the Virtual Universe, they were easy to arrange!
At that moment, two sides faced off in the Killing Field.
One was Huang Wuye, with fiery red hair, clad in black armor, and holding a three-zhang silver-white spear with a red tassel. The other was a ferocious giant beast, its entire body covered in scales.
It had four powerful hooves, a pair of enormous scaled wings, a robust, spiked tail, and a single horn thrusting toward the sky, as if it would pierce the heavens.
And its dark golden eyes were cold and merciless! This enormous beast was over two hundred meters long—and it was none other than the renowned Star Level Golden Horned Beast.
Huang Wuye, standing over three meters tall, showed no hint of fatigue before the devouring beast, which was over two hundred meters long and more than a hundred meters tall.
His aura surged, and his presence pierced the heavens, faintly overwhelming even the Golden Horned Beast.
Suddenly, Huang Wuye moved. With a flash, he appeared above the Golden Horned Beast's head.
He thrust out his spear, turning it into a streak of light that struck the Golden Horned Beast. Sparks flew as the spearhead scraped against its scales.
The Golden Horned Beast felt the pain and roared, sweeping its tail toward Huang Wuye.
The air cracked with a thunderous boom as the tail lashed through it.
Seeing that his strike had done nothing, Huang Wuye watched the Golden Horned Beast's tail hurtling toward him. He shifted his body and swung his spear to meet it.
"Boom!" The shaft and the beast's long tail collided with a dull thud.
When the Golden Horned Beast saw that its tail attack had been blocked, it immediately swiped at him with a claw. Seeing the danger, Huang Wuye dodged at once, then thrust down with his spear again.
In the blink of an eye, Huang Wuye and the Golden Horned Beast fought hand to hand for more than two hundred exchanges. The clanging and banging rang through the heavens.
Suddenly, Huang Wuye let out a shout. He collided violently with the Golden Horned Beast, then pulled away by tens of thousands of meters.
"Fantastic! Hahaha, what a thrill!" Huang Wuye was overjoyed. He had long yearned for a battle like this. The close-quarters fight made his blood boil. As for why he was fighting hand to hand, all he could say was that he'd had a martial arts hero's dream in his previous life.
"All right, big guy. I'm done playing with you. I'll finish you now." Huang Wuye laughed loudly, then stepped forward, leaving eight afterimages in the air. This was the Desolate God Clan's movement secret technique, Phantom Void, a Peak Secret Technique. Once mastered, it could even grant the user the ability to teleport.
"Roar!" Hearing this, the Golden Horned Beast let out a roar. Its body suddenly shrank to a third of its original size. It had used its innate secret technique, True Body Heaven and Earth, tripling its strength, speed, and defense.
Huang Wuye didn't panic. He laughed and used Phantom Void to appear above the Golden Horned Beast in the blink of an eye. He swung his spear, and flames immediately enveloped everything within several thousand meters of him. This was his Flame Domain. He now concentrated it around himself to restrain the Golden Horned Beast. Then he shouted, "Blazing Fire Prairie!" His spear turned into a rainbow streak and hurtled toward the Golden Horned Beast.
Seeing a fiery red beam coming toward it, the Golden Horned Beast let out a mighty roar and raised its left claw. Golden light gathered around the claw, and a faint sheen spread over its scales. A sharp aura radiated from it. It swung its left claw to meet Huang Wuye's spear in a head-on blow.
"Rumble!" A tremendous crash rang out. There...
