"Get into my bowl!"

"Little Gold, now! Target its compound eyes and core sarcoma!"

Pybara gave the order.

"Roar!"

The Golden Horned Beast seized the opportunity and lunged forward once more!

It no longer fired long-range light blades, choosing instead to engage in close-quarters combat.

It utilized its superior physical strength, razor-sharp claws and fangs, and that indestructible single horn.

It launched a storm of biting and ramming attacks against the exposed vital parts of the Octopus Beast Emperor!

"Squelch!"

A single horn pierced deeply into a massive compound eye, causing dark green fluid to spray everywhere!

"Snap!"

Sharp claws tore through the folds on the surface of the sarcoma, ripping away large chunks of foul-smelling flesh!

"Boom!"

The heavy impact caused the entire body of the Octopus Beast Emperor to tremble violently!

"Awoo!"

The Octopus Beast Emperor let out a shrill, miserable shriek.

Its remaining tentacles lashed out and coiled desperately around the Golden Horned Beast, attempting to strangle it or force it back.

But the energy force field and sturdy scales on the Golden Horned Beast's body made most of these attacks feel like mere tickles.

Occasionally, a few tentacles would break through the defense, leaving shallow scratches that healed rapidly under the Golden Horned Beast's powerful regenerative abilities.

Pybara hovered in the air, controlling the Black Hole Domain to maintain the advantage on the battlefield.

At the same time, he watched his mount's "predatory performance" with great relish, occasionally calling out pointers.

"Yes! Poke that eye on the left too! That piece of meat underneath looks tender, tear it off!"

Under the gaze of human satellites, the Octopus Beast Emperor, which had once dominated the Indian Ocean and struck terror into all who heard its name, was now being pinned to the sea surface and "devoured" frantically by the Golden Horned Beast, completely unable to resist.

Finally, after a weak, barely audible hiss filled with resentment and despair, the Octopus Beast Emperor's massive, fleshy body was completely torn open and hollowed out, its remaining tentacles hanging limply.

Another indigenous Beast Emperor of Earth had fallen!

It had become a "nutritious meal" for the Golden Horned Beast's recovery and growth.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully devouring two Beast Emperors. Combined with the previous energy accumulation, your realm has advanced to Star Level 3.]

Who could have imagined it?

Just by eating and drinking, Pybara's strength had reached an inconceivable level.

Because of the Golden Horned Beast he had contracted, even the food consumed by this Starry Sky Behemoth would have more than half of its essence transferred to him.

Only a small portion remained in the beast's own body.

This was similar to how the black hole had functioned before.

However, the Golden Horned Beast's combat style was far more spectacular and aesthetically pleasing.

Unless he encountered the kind of troublesome, unsolvable enemy again, the black hole would likely not be needed for some time.

Meanwhile, inside the War God Palace, the human powerhouses looked at one another in silence.

They felt as if everything they had just witnessed was a dream.

How could this be?

The events of the past few days had completely defied their imagination.

Was the sky of this planet, which had once belonged to humanity, truly about to change?

But Pybara had not made any excessive demands.

After eliminating the two Beast Emperors, this guy had already begun to set his sights on the Beast Kings and Lord-level monsters.

Could he really be intending to wipe out all the monsters across the entire world?

This was something many generations of humans had dreamed of achieving, yet they had never succeeded.

Who could have imagined it?

Why was it turning out like this?

Even as the human powerhouses within the War God Palace remained bewildered and numb from the series of drastic changes, Even when he began to ponder the absurd proposition of "what the Earth would look like under the rule of Pybara."

Pybara's actions, however, never ceased for a moment.

To him, so-called dominion held no joy.

Devouring to evolve, collecting powerful "pets," and experiencing the thrill brought by different powers were his greatest pursuits after transmigrating.

As for humans?

As long as they didn't get in his way and provided "services" on time.

He didn't mind letting these "two-legged beasts" continue living in their cities.

His next target was the one entrenched deep within the East Sea of the Hanxia Nation.

The one that had triggered large-scale beast tides many times, causing endless headaches for the coastal base cities—the East Sea Azure Dragon King!

This Azure Dragon King was nearly a thousand meters long; though not as massive as the Golden Horned Beast, it still counted as a giant beast.

Its body was covered in dark green scales, capable of controlling gale-force winds and giant waves, and it could spew highly corrosive poisonous water from its maw.

It was a top-tier existence among the ocean's king-level monsters.

On this day, the East Sea was whipped by high winds and turbulent waves.

The East Sea Azure Dragon King was cruising comfortably within its territory, enjoying the awe of countless marine monsters.

Suddenly, it felt an incredibly terrifying pressure descending from the sky!

Looking up, it saw a dark golden giant beast, resembling a metallic mountain range.

It was folding its wings and diving toward it like a meteorite!

On the back of that giant beast, there seemed to be a tiny, glowing figure standing.

"Roar?!"

The East Sea Azure Dragon King was both shocked and furious; it recognized that terrifying existence that had been the talk of the monster circles recently, the one that had swallowed two Beast Emperors in a row.

The Golden Horned Beast!

Why would it come here?!

Escape! That was the East Sea Azure Dragon King's first reaction.

However, it was already too late.

The Golden Horned Beast's speed was astonishing, closing the distance in the blink of an eye.

It didn't even bother using energy attacks, simply extending a giant claw covered in dark golden scales.

Like an eagle snatching a chick, it reached for the East Sea Azure Dragon King's slender neck!

"Aung—!"

The East Sea Azure Dragon King was terrified out of its wits, opening its mouth to spew a thick, dark green column of poisonous water.

At the same time, it whipped its giant tail, stirring up a hundred-meter-high tsunami in an attempt to block the attack.

The column of poisonous water collided with Little Gold's energy field like clear water splashed onto a red-hot iron plate.

It was instantly evaporated and annihilated, leaving not even a mark behind.

The seemingly terrifying tsunami was shattered directly by the horrific wind pressure brought about by Little Gold's dive!

"Crack!"

A crisp sound of bone fracturing rang out.

The Golden Horned Beast's claw, as if cast from steel, had precisely and effortlessly gripped the East Sea Azure Dragon King's neck.

With a slight exertion of force, it snapped the cervical vertebrae!

The East Sea Azure Dragon King's massive body went rigid, the light in its eyes rapidly dimming.

The entire process was fast, precise, and ruthless, without any suspense; one could even say it was... excessively easy.

It was just like an adult pinching a slightly larger loach to death.

The Golden Horned Beast carried the limp corpse of the East Sea Azure Dragon King and flew back to Pybara's side.

It lowered its head respectfully, waiting for its master to handle the prize.

Pybara leaped down from Little Gold's back, hovering before the corpse of the East Sea Azure Dragon King, stroking his chin as he sized it up.

"Hmm, it looks intimidating enough, just don't know how it tastes."

He extended a claw, not even bothering to use a Black Hole, simply letting his thoughts stir.

He activated the more refined control over energy and matter he had gained after advancing to the third level of the Star rank.

One could see the East Sea Azure Dragon King's massive body rapidly shriveling and shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The life essence, energy, and some valuable bone and scale materials contained within its body were forcibly extracted and compressed.

Finally, before Pybara's claw, it condensed into a...

"Energy stick" that shimmered with a dark green luster and highly concentrated energy?

Or rather, like an oversized, energy-state "Spicy Stick"?

"Mm, looks alright."

Pybara took this "Azure Dragon King Spicy Stick" in his claw and weighed it.

Then, he very casually put it into his mouth and began to chew with a "crunch, crunch" sound.
