The Curtain Falls and the Search Begins

As time passed, the vast territory of the Eighty-Third World Zone shrank by more than ten thousand times, and it was still contracting rapidly.

This meant that there was not a single place in the battlefield where fighting was not occurring, and although many had fallen and been eliminated over these past few months.

Yet, at this moment, the drastically shrunken battlefield made the survivors appear all the more conspicuous.

In this world of ice and snow, for these warriors who were all at the Universe-Level 9, everyone was glaringly obvious to one another.

Once the fluctuations of origin power were unleashed, the surrounding figures became as dazzling as lamps in the dark.

The powerful auras they exuded were the most alluring spices, drawing each other into battle after battle.

If one were to look down from the endless heights, one would discover that in this vast, white world of ice and snow, there was not a single place where combat was not taking place.

Waves of majestic energy rippled outward, causing the entire world to boil over.

Compared to the human race's Peak Genius Battle, the Universe-Level Warrior Tournament was even more intense.

Only the absolute strongest could survive here; there was no soil for the weak to exist.

And what the Virtual Universe Company wanted were the strongest among the geniuses, which was the very origin of the Universe-Level Warrior Tournament.

At this moment, the Eighty-Third Preliminary World could be called a paradise for the strong, and Huang Wuye could be called the absolute strongest here.

Huang Wuye held a silver-white long spear, his white robes dancing in the wind, his crimson hair flying wildly, and a sharp, piercing aura shot straight into the sky.

Looking from afar, he resembled a divine spear thrusting into the clouds.

Surrounded by the origin laws of fire, he walked through the space filled with battle like a traveler of the void.

From time to time, he would wave his spear, and several torches would inevitably ignite out of thin air in the distance.

At this moment, he was like a high and mighty sovereign, wiping away the dust of the world with a wave of his hand.

Even with identical physical fitness, origin power, and spiritual energy, his comprehension of the laws, which far exceeded that of others, created a massive gap between him and ordinary Universe-Level warriors—a difference as vast as heaven and earth.

Looking at the billions of Universe-Level warriors participating this time, I fear only a few could compare to him.

This was the confidence brought to him by his rapid progress over the last dozen years; he was powerful, incomparably powerful.

Is this the power of the laws? If I am already like this, what of those Immortal Gods whose mastery of the laws far exceeds mine, or even those existences above the Venerables?

Feeling the power amplified by the laws, Huang Wuye fell into deep thought; in this world where the strong rule everything, it was truly indescribable.

Time and life and death seemed within reach; it was time to end this farce.

Following this, Huang Wuye unleashed his speed. His figure flickered, and in an instant, countless images of Huang Wuye appeared across the thousands of kilometers of the world, far exceeding the number of ten thousand.

And as these figures appeared, the figures fighting around him either turned into torches or dissipated into the wind like bubbles in the sky.

They hadn't even had time to see the face of the intruder; weakness was such a helpless state. Even though they were usually existences looked up to by others, at this moment, they were no different from ants.

As these figures vanished, Huang Wuye's points skyrocketed at an extremely rapid pace, dazzling the surviving contestants.

And with Huang Wuye exerting his strength, the curtain gradually began to fall on the Eighty-Third World Zone.

On Giant Wood Planet, in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, the sounds of beast roars were incessant, among which several shrill, miserable howls were particularly piercing.

Following the direction of the sounds, one could see more than a hundred strange-looking exotic beasts coming into view.

This was a peculiar species; its body was covered in countless slender mouthparts, and numerous blade-like sharp tentacles extended outward, emitting a cold, harsh glint.

One could see that when those tentacles pierced an object, whether it was tough stone, strange metal, or even those sky-covering giant trees, they were like tofu, unable to provide the slightest resistance.

This monster was called a God-Devouring Beast, nearly a thousand meters long. Each one was a tyrannical killer, a natural weapon of war.

They were entirely purple and were among the few kings in the God-Slaying Mountain Range.

God-Devouring Beasts were powerful individually, but they preferred to move in groups. Wherever the God-Devouring Beasts passed, no life remained. Even giant beasts comparable to the World-Lord level would be surrounded and killed, and their superior speed ensured that no prey they targeted could escape.

This was an extremely brutal species, and also one of the hunting missions for Huang Wuye on Giant Wood Planet.

But at this moment, they were fleeing, occasionally letting out shrill cries, like desperate fugitives facing collapse.

And the existence that made them so urgent was the figure behind them holding a great spear—it was the Night Emperor Clone of Huang Wuye.

One could see the spear shadows in his hand flickering, and one God-Devouring Beast after another fell to the ground. As a unique special life form with 8100 times the life gene, although he could not exert his full strength at this moment, slaughtering these God-Devouring Beasts was still easy.

Before long, all these God-Devouring Beasts were dead, leaving only their massive corpses and the devastated mountain forest as witnesses.

The Night Emperor Clone waved his hand, and all the corpses of the God-Devouring Beasts were enveloped by his spiritual energy and entered his World Ring.

"Phew, that completes all the hunting missions."

Now, it was time to find the opportunities on this Giant Wood Planet.

Saying this, he flew away from the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range and headed straight for the base on Giant Wood Planet.

Not long after, he arrived in front of the familiar base and saw the protective shield open.

He landed, and accompanied by a tremor that shook the earth, a massive figure suddenly flashed out.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

The one who arrived was the long-unseen Gari. At this moment, Gari's figure had grown more than ten times taller, and he had officially stepped into the World-Lord level.

After eating the Life Fruit, his intelligence had undergone a transformation.

With the cultivation secret manual Huang Wuye had prepared for him, he had now officially advanced to the World-Lord level.

Upon entering the World Lord level, his stature surged violently, reaching a height of one hundred thousand meters; standing now before the Night Emperor Clone, who had restrained his own form, he resembled a cloud hanging from the heavens.

His head pierced straight into the clouds, and every inch of his powerful muscles was as hard as ten-thousand-year-old stone, as if weathered by countless storms.

Looking at the big guy before him, the Night Emperor Clone clicked his tongue in surprise; although he still could not compare to himself, he was certainly gifted with extraordinary talent.

"Alright, General Mighty, accompany me on a trip."

The Night Emperor Clone had returned specifically to find this big guy; since this search would surely not be simple, he intended to find himself a mount.

Thus, General Mighty, now at the World Lord level, was undoubtedly the best choice.

In the dozen or so years since becoming a World Lord, General Mighty had comprehended the origin laws of space.

His already rapid speed had become even faster, and he would undoubtedly be swift enough to serve as a mount.

Just like that, after giving General Mighty a few instructions, he took him out to traverse Giant Wood Planet.

He was in no rush, searching for anomalies while simultaneously admiring the exotic scenery of Giant Wood Planet.

Although he had been here for a long time, he had not yet properly looked at this land, and he was now prepared to take a good look at these magnificent mountains and rivers.

On Giant Wood Planet at this moment, their combination was naturally able to roam without restraint, and time slowly slipped away.
