New Plane, Shadow Beasts

P369453 Crystal Wall Plane, Dimension No. 360,000.

This is Crystal Wall Plane located in the desolate Outer Domain region of the Infinite Universe, a region that the vast majority of Divine Civilization have not yet touched.

In the eyes of the mainstream world of the Divine Civilization, this place is a completely barbaric wasteland.

Only a very small number of Divine Civilization have begun to enter this Crystal Wall Plane to explore and conquer it.

In the sky, the enormous sun shone brightly on the earth.

The ground was covered with unknown crystals that shimmered with purple light. These crystals were prismatic, tapering at the top and thicker at the bottom.

Each crystal emits a unique radiance, reminiscent of the twinkling stars in the night sky.

Suddenly, the sound of running came from afar, growing louder and louder.

A large group of humans dressed in black were running for their lives, pursued by a large group of monsters made of black mist.

The monster's body was entirely composed of dense darkness and shadows.

The entire body outline is blurry and indistinct, seemingly not a physical entity.

Their eyes were a scarlet red, like two burning flames, gleaming eerily in the darkness.

This monster has no defined shape, can change its form at will, and can move lightly in the dark, almost silently.

Once they spot their prey, their bodies expand and contract like black smoke, forming shadowy tentacles that entangle and swarm the prey before engaging it in battle.

The P369453 Crystal Wall Plane, the thirty-sixth hundred thousandth plane, possesses its own unique rules and laws.

The core power of the beings in this world is called "Title Power".

By hunting each other and completing special achievements, the creatures of this plane of existence can obtain corresponding titles.

Different titles possess different attributes and abilities, and by wearing these titles, beings in this dimension can gain immense power.

The titles have seven levels, from lowest to highest: Bronze, Black Iron, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Rainbow.

The higher the title level, the higher the additional attributes and the stronger the abilities granted.

Indigenous creatures possessing titled powers are called titled warriors.

By continuously synthesizing more and higher titles, the native creatures of this plane of existence can possess power comparable to that of gods.

But they are only comparable to gods.

Decades ago, a god forcibly entered this plane of existence and hunted down the ten remaining Seven-Colored Title Warriors.

Although the deity was ultimately driven away by the Prismatic Dragon God manifested by the World Will of this plane and forced to leave in disgrace, it still left behind a large number of followers in this plane.

These shadowy monsters are one of them.

These shadowy monsters are called Shadow Beast, and they have hunted countless native creatures in this dimension over the years.

"Faster... faster!"

The man leading the group urged them on loudly.

Once entangled by the tentacles of Shadow Beast, its stamina will be quickly drained.

They will then be sent to their base by these Shadow Creature, and then transported to the Divine Domain of that god via a teleportation array.

Over the years, at least several million indigenous people have been abducted as a result.

"Brother Lan, I can't run anymore..."

A slightly chubby boy said breathlessly.

Compared to others, he expended more physical energy.

We're nearing our limit.

"Even if you can't run, you have to! Don't worry, Brother Changhe is hunting nearby, he'll definitely hear the commotion."

As long as we hold out until Brother Changhe arrives, we'll be out of danger.

"Sixth Brother, hang in there a little longer, keep running!"

Their team hunted gray wolves in this area in an attempt to earn the title of "Wolf Annihilator".

Unexpectedly, they encountered Shadow Beast that had come out to hunt.

The man's words restored some of the chubby boy, Xiao Liu's, strength.

Thinking of Chen Changhe's strength, he felt much more at ease.

Although the group ran for their lives, they were getting closer and closer to the Shadow Beast.

Just as these people were about to meet their doom, a terrifying figure covered in green suddenly leaped down from the top of a tall crystal.

"Waaaaagh!"

The green giant roared furiously.

He then punched the Shadow Beast running in the lead.

Shadow Beast, being of the Shadow attribute, are normally immune to most physical damage.

However, even after being hit by this attack, it was still instantly reduced to smoke and vanished without a trace.

The other Shadow Beast launched their shadow tentacles at him like madmen, but to no avail.

The green giant showed no mercy and charged forward.

In just a few dozen seconds, all the Shadow Beast were hunted down.

Black smoke billowed out and spread in all directions.

They disappeared shortly afterward, leaving behind only round spheres that looked like black pearls.

These are the crystal cores left behind by the Shadow Beast, condensed from the life essence of these monsters.

After absorption, it can be used to enhance various titles in this dimension.

The Green Giant's body continued to shrink, transforming into a muscular man with six-pack abs.

He lowered his head and calmly picked up the Shadow Beast Crystal Core from the ground.

Although not all Shadow Beast left behind a crystal core, about 80% of them did.

All of them collected amounted to eight Shadow Beast Cores.

If used to enhance a title, it's enough to upgrade a bronze-level title to a silver-level title.

"That's a pretty good result."

The man's face looked exactly like Chen Changhe's.

"Brother Changhe, you're here!"

The rescued natives gathered around the man and greeted him.

Especially the chubby little boy, Xiao Liu.

If Chen Changhe had been a step slower, he would have been captured by the Shadow Beast.

So many years have passed, and none of those captured by the Shadow Beast have ever returned alive.

It's no different from being dead.

"Are you alright, Xiao Liu?"

Chen Changhe looked at Xiao Liu.

"It's nothing! Thank you so much, Brother Changhe!"

Xiao Liu looked at Chen Changhe with a face full of admiration.

He and Chen Changhe grew up together and joined the hunting team together.

Several years have passed.

He was still just a Black Iron -level titled warrior.

However, Chen Changhe possessed strength surpassing that of a Gold-level titled warrior.

Furthermore, they possess the unique title of "Orks," which allows them to transform into incredibly powerful Orks.

If it weren't for Chen Changhe's protection...

Their village had been destroyed by Shadow Creature years ago.

"It's getting late, everyone should head back to the village!"

"You go first, I'll be there shortly."

Chen Changhe glanced at the sun, which was already close to the horizon, and said.

"Yes, Brother Changhe!"

Everyone spoke in unison.

Over the years, Chen Changhe has become the backbone of their group.

Although their hunting trip had some minor setbacks today, they had a good harvest.

In addition to obtaining several "Wolf Annihilator" Black Iron titles, they also acquired a large amount of wolf meat.

There's enough wolf meat to feed everyone in the village.
