One year later.
Within the Inner Domain of Tilted Peak Realm.
call!
Zhou Zheng passed through a raging storm and arrived in the Void.
"Passing through this Meteor God Wind, crossing the Two Realms Abyss ahead, and further in lies the Core Land of the Qing Feng Realm!" Zhou Zheng gazed at the Abyss below, from which terrifying suction forces emanated.
Even the most detailed map of the Human Race doesn't provide much detail about the Core Land the Qing Feng Realm, and the Dim Land only has a general location. We'll have to wait until Zhou Zheng arrives at the Core Land to find out exactly where it is.
However, at that moment, Zhou Zheng suddenly had a thought and looked into the distance.
Hundreds of thousands of light-years away, waves of energy were constantly appearing. Clearly, someone was Teleportation. At such a great distance, it would be impossible for an ordinary person to perceive it, but Zhou Zheng could sense it very clearly.
"Could it be that someone is really not afraid of death and has come looking for the World Beast?"
Zhou Zheng pondered for a moment, his figure blurred for a moment, and then he disappeared from the spot.
A moment later, less than a light-year away from where Zhou Zheng had just been, a Void passed by. This figure was extremely majestic, with violent flames swirling around it, clearly a Special Lifeform.
"This is?"
Zhou Zheng, hidden in the Void, looked at the other party. In an instant, he recognized the person.
The Original Universe's Lord of Universe, the Master Yuan Ao.
It's him.
Zhou Zheng narrowed his eyes. If he remembered correctly, this Master Yuan Ao should have sided with the World Beast. Even if he hadn't, he still had some kind of connection with the World Beast World Beast.
The Master Yuan Ao possesses a map leading directly to the Dim Land, and this map is used to lure powerful beings from the Cosmic Sea to it.
Without hesitation, Zhou Zheng immediately sealed off the surrounding space the moment the Master Yuan Ao tried to Teleportation.
"Who?"
Master Yuan Ao was startled. The next moment, Zhou Zheng's figure slowly appeared. However, space and time were distorted around Zhou Zheng, and Master Yuan Ao could not see his appearance clearly at all.
" The Universe Strongest?"
Master Yuan Ao was startled. Although Zhou Zheng's appearance was blurry, he did not conceal his aura, and Master Yuan Ao could recognize him instantly.
"This senior."
Before the Master Yuan Ao could say anything more, countless points of light appeared around him. Then, pure white threads appeared between the points of light, connecting with each other and instantly trapping the Master Yuan Ao within them.
Whew! Whew! Whew!
Countless points of light began to shrink rapidly, Master Yuan Ao instantly sensed something was wrong.
With a low shout, countless flames suddenly erupted and rushed towards the surrounding area.
But this terrifying power was ultimately locked in a single area, and it continued to shrink as the light spot contracted.
Master Yuan Ao's expression darkened slightly, and he immediately used other methods, but the surrounding light spots were like solid rocks, and no matter how much Master Yuan Ao struggled, he could not shake them in the slightest.
"Senior, I'll give you all the treasures I have." Master Yuan Ao hurriedly said, but Zhou Zheng remained unmoved, and the surrounding light spots continued to shrink.
Seeing this, the Master Yuan Ao lost all hope and a long black staff suddenly appeared in his hand.
Rumble!
The long staff, like a whirlpool, instantly struck a point of light in the surrounding area.
The power unleashed by the Master Yuan Ao this time was significantly greater than before, faintly surpassing the limit of Fifth-Order Universe Master, but it still couldn't shake those light spots in the slightest.
"What exactly is this?"
Master Yuan Ao felt incredulous. Suddenly, he was surrounded, unable to break through or escape. This was too terrifying!
At this moment, Zhou Zheng looked at the black wooden stick that the Master Yuan Ao had taken out, and a look of understanding flashed in his eyes.
"Have I already obtained the Strange Object?" Zhou Zheng wondered to himself.
Strange Object are often weapons, and very powerful ones at that, even comparable to the Supreme Treasure.
However, unlike the Supreme Treasure, Strange Object do not require the comprehension of secret patterns; they can be used immediately upon acquisition. When Life Technique uses Strange Object to fight, it draws upon the terrifying energy within them.
Moreover, Strange Object are beings rejected by the Original Universe. If Strange Object is brought into the Original Universe, it will be targeted by the Original Universe Will.
The Master Yuan Ao did indeed unleash considerable power with the help of the Strange Object, but he was still far from being able to break through Zhou Zheng's secret technique.
Back in the Original Universe, Zhou Zheng used this move against the Lord of Sirius, and even the Dream Demon Ancestor's full-force attack couldn't budge him in the slightest.
Although it was in the Original Universe, the Dream Demon Ancestor's attack was definitely top-tier at the Sixth Order, much stronger than the current Master Yuan Ao.
The fate of the Master Yuan Ao was sealed the moment he encountered Zhou Zheng; he was destined to be suppressed by him.
The reason he didn't kill it directly was because Zhou Zheng only guessed that the Master Yuan Ao was related to the World Beast, and he needed to verify it. Moreover, he had some things he wanted to ask the other party.
Whew! Whew! Whew!
The countless points of light contracted faster and faster, and soon even Divine Body incomparably majestic Master Yuan Ao shrank. In the end, a sphere the size of a palm fell into Zhou Zheng's hand. The Master Yuan Ao was directly suppressed by the extremely compressed spacetime and had no power to resist.
"Senior, all the treasures I possess belong to you! I am willing to serve you, I..." Master Yuan Ao kept making demands, trying to persuade Zhou Zheng.
However, Zhou Zheng ignored the Master Yuan Ao and began to examine his Divine Power as his Divine Power penetrated into the other party's body.
Soon, Zhou Zheng's expression changed slightly.
He sensed a strange energy deep within the Divine Body of the Master Yuan Ao. This energy was not abundant, but it was extremely cold and sinister. Zhou Zheng subconsciously wanted to repel it.
"So we've really encountered World Beast?" Zhou Zheng pondered to himself. By pledging Life Technique to a World Beast World Beast, one could have the chance to gain its power.
The World Beast Power World Beast absolutely opposed to the Divine Power of the Life Technique in the Cosmic Sea. When Divine Power encounters the World Beast Power, it will be rapidly worn down.
It is precisely because of this characteristic that the World Beast can even form a Cocoon of the World Beast to grind down Life Technique in the Cosmic Sea with a large amount of energy.
Although True God can supply themselves with their Minor Universe, the efficiency is not high. If their Divine Body are not large enough, they can easily be worn down by World Beast in this way.
In terms of soul, power, and so on, the World Beast has an overwhelming advantage, which is why ordinary Life Technique World Beast the Cosmic Sea have no power to resist it.
In general, unless one possesses overwhelming strength, one cannot have any obvious weaknesses in order to fight against the World Beast.
"You came to the Qing Feng Realm to search for the World Beast?" Zhou Zheng interrupted Master Yuan Ao and asked casually.
Upon hearing the words " World Beast," Master Yuan Ao's heart skipped a beat, but he showed no outward sign of it. Instead, he asked:
"Senior, what is World Beast?"
"Oh? It seems you're not very well-informed! News about the World Beast has spread far and wide in the Cosmic Sea!" Zhou Zheng said casually.
At the same time, he also analyzed in his mind that the Master Yuan Ao probably arrived in the Qing Feng Realm a long time ago, and had not yet heard about the emergence of the Inheritance Divine Hall in the outside world.
The reason is not complicated. If the Master Yuan Ao knew about the Inheritance Divine Hall, there would be no need for him to deny it at this moment. At the very least, he shouldn't say that he didn't know about the World Beast.
Of course, this is not surprising. The Inheritance Divine Hall has only existed for less than a hundred years. The Master Yuan Ao a solitary Lord of Universe. It is normal that he would not be well-informed and would not know about this matter.
"The news may not have reached the ears of the World Beast yet!" Zhou Zheng thought to himself, this was the best possible outcome.
"Senior, is that World Beast in the Qing Feng Realm?" Master Yuan Ao suddenly asked.
"Not bad!" Zhou Zheng nodded calmly.
"I have a map of the Qing Feng Realm obtained from the Past super strongman ' Xuan Yuan '. I am willing to offer it to you, senior, and I only ask that you spare me!" Master Yuan Ao hurriedly spoke up. Zhou Zheng carefully observed him but could not find any flaws.
The acting is really good!
"Oh? The Xuan Yuan Map? You really have it? If it is, I might give you a chance!" Zhou Zheng played along.
After hearing Zhou Zheng's words, the Master Yuan Ao perhaps saw a glimmer of hope for survival, and he actively spoke to Zhou Zheng. Zhou Zheng took the opportunity to subtly analyze some things.
After a long time—
Before the Master Yuan Ao could react, Zhou Zheng suddenly infused a large amount of Divine Power into the Lord's Divine Body. In an instant, the Master Yuan Ao was annihilated into nothingness.
"How could I really let you go?" Zhou Zheng remained unmoved, instantly putting away the relic of the Master Yuan Ao.
Among the many relics of the other party, Zhou Zheng only valued two items: the Xuan Yuan Map and that Strange Object.
Although the Xuan Yuan Map is likely a trap, Zhou Zheng came to the Core Land the Qing Feng Realm specifically to hunt the World Beast. Even if it's a trap, he'll still step on it, which actually saves him time searching.
As for that Strange Object
Zhou Zheng activated the Strange Object, which was instantly unleashed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The terrifying power blasted a void passage across trillions of miles in an instant.
"It doesn't enhance my strength!"
Zhou Zheng made a judgment immediately, which is not surprising. Strange Object should also be divided into levels. Ordinary True God can greatly increase their strength by using ordinary Strange Object, but Zhou Zheng is obviously no longer an ordinary True God.
According to the realm division of the Cosmic Sea, he has the ability to create Tenth-Order Secret Technique in both the Slaughter and Destruction paths, and even more so in the Space-Time Dao, where he has the ability to create Eleventh-Order Secret Technique.
This kind of strength is clearly not something that ordinary Strange Object can help him with!
Moreover, this Strange Object was likely obtained by the Master Yuan Ao from the World Beast. If this Strange Object could truly help Zhou Zheng, the World Beast would probably be reluctant to hand it over to the Master Yuan Ao.
"However, although it's not helpful to me, it's hard enough to be used as a short sword!" Zhou Zheng swung it a few times and felt it was alright.
In the Cosmic Sea, it is too difficult to find a sword suitable for Zhou Zheng. Ordinary Supreme Treasure are not as good as his direct hand attacks. This Strange Object is just passable.
