Honestly, it's even more bizarre than monsters!

At the same time, the monster was staring greedily at Jiang Fan and Zhou Yanchen with the eyes of someone looking at a real object.

Especially when she looked at Jiang Fan, her gaze became noticeably ardent.

Clearly, in his eyes, Jiang Fan was more delicious than Zhou Yanchen.

"Humans, delicious humans."

His voice was dry and harsh, giving the impression that he was just beginning to learn to speak.

"Hiss--" Zhou Yanchen got goosebumps all over and kept gasping for breath.

"What on earth is this thing? It's terrifying!"

Jiang Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, his hand slowly moving to the hilt of the knife.

He had never seen such a monster before, nor did he know its true strength.

Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit; he dared not be careless in the slightest.

"I really want to eat it! It looks delicious!"

The monster's gaze toward Jiang Fan grew even more greedy, drool dripping down its serrated teeth.

The next second!

The monster, with its four limbs braced on the ground, lunged at Jiang Fan and his companions in an extremely awkward posture, like a wild dog.

Jiang Fan was already prepared to make a move, so he met the opponent's attack the moment they lunged at him.

"Swoosh--" The opponent's head was chopped off.

Its head rolled several times on the ground before stopping, its mouth still opening and closing.

"Food, food..."

He murmured a few times before passing away.

[Ding! Congratulations, Master! You have successfully killed First-Molt Ruins Species. You have performed a good deed and received 50 points, plus one chance to win a prize.]

Um?

First-Molt Ruins Species?

What is this?

And what's more, killing one of these things actually gives you a chance to win a prize?

Does killing one of these things grant a chance to win a prize, or is it random?

Just as Jiang Fan was pondering this, Zhou Yanchen's questioning voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"Hoo--What is this?"

Seeing that the two pieces on the ground were not moving, Zhou Yanchen mustered up his courage and walked over.

"Looks terrifying, but the actual strength is just so-so."

"Huh? What's this?"

Zhou Yanchen picked up a bright red object from the ground and handed it to Jiang Fan.

It's shaped somewhat like a diamond, but its size is about the same as an egg.

Jiang Fan reached out and took it, examining it closely, but couldn't discern anything unusual.

Just then, a familiar voice rang out.

"This is Blood Crystal; absorbing it will rapidly enhance Martial Artist's qi and blood."

Jiang Fan turned around and his lips twitched.

The newcomer was wearing a floral shirt, floral shorts, and a pair of flashy sunglasses.

He had a stubble beard, yet exuded an extraordinary masculine charm.

"Who are you? How do you know this thing is called Blood Crystal? And how do you know it can enhance Martial Artist's blood and qi?"

Zhou Yanchen stared at the other party warily, sizing them up as if afraid they might have ill intentions.

The newcomer ignored him and walked straight up to Jiang Fan, taking the Blood Crystal from his hand. His brows furrowed slightly, and his expression became serious.

"It seems that this second spiritual energy resurgence has loosened the barrier, allowing this thing to slip in. Is humanity's catastrophe about to begin ahead of schedule?"

Jiang Fan was terrified upon hearing this.

"What exactly is going on? What barrier? What catastrophe? And what is this monster that doesn't look like a human?"

The system told him that this monster was called a " First-Molt Ruins Species," but what exactly was First-Molt Ruins Species "?

Meanwhile, on the side.

Zhou Yanchen, unaware of the visitor's identity, felt completely bewildered, wondering who this person was. It seemed that Brother Thigh was quite familiar with him.

Yan Tianyang returned the Blood Crystal to Jiang Fan, and looking at the strange object on the ground, slowly said:

"This monster is called Ruins Species, and it comes from the Ruins Realm."

" Ruins Realm?"

"Don't underestimate this guy just because he's weak. He's only Ordinary Ruin Spawn. Moreover, he's First-Molt Ruins Species among Ordinary Ruin Spawn. There are also second-stage and third-stage Ruins Species. The classification of Void Seeds is somewhat similar to that of human Martial Artist. Above Ordinary Ruin Spawn are Elite Ruin Spawn, Calamity Ruin Spawn, and above that are Ruin Lord. The highest leader who governs the Ruins Realm is the Ruin Ancestor."

Hearing this, Jiang Fan roughly understood.

But understanding it only made him more curious.

"You said these guys come from the Ruins Realm, but where is the Ruins Realm? I've never heard of it before?"

"It's normal that you haven't heard of it, because all this information has been blocked by the highest levels of the Divine Wind Camp. Apart from the high-ranking members of the Divine Wind Camp, only the heads of large families or the older generation of Martial Artist who have lived for a long time know about it," Yan Tianyang said.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Zhou Yanchen interrupted.

"How did you know that?"

Could this person be the head of some powerful family? Or a long-lived Martial Artist?

But this person doesn't look very old, and judging from his flashy clothes and frivolous behavior, he's unlikely to be the head of some powerful family, right?

Yan Tianyang, as before, completely ignored Zhou Yanchen.

Ignoring me again!

Zhou Yanchen was gritting his teeth in fury. If he hadn't felt he might not be able to beat him, he would have already rushed up and punched him.

Hearing the grinding of teeth, Jiang Fan quickly reached out and pulled Zhou Yanchen behind him.

Although he was initially resistant to the leg accessory, he now finds it quite nice and can't just watch it disappear.

Yan Tianyang didn't seem to take Zhou Yanchen seriously either, and looked up in the direction of the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Fan immediately looked over as well.

He had tried to investigate with his Psychic Power long ago, but to no avail.

Now that Yan Tianyang is looking at the Heaven-Reaching Tower with such a solemn expression, could it be that all the strange things that have happened today are related to the Heaven-Reaching Tower?

"Do you know why the Divine Wind Camp was built around the Heaven-Reaching Tower?" Yan Tianyang asked.

Jiang Fan frowned slightly, trying to guess.

"What are you guarding?"

Yan Tianyang nodded, "That's right. The Heaven-Reaching Tower is the gateway to the Ruins Realm. Once the gateway is breached, a massive number of Ruins Species will flood into Blue Star. They will devour our human flesh and blood, converting it into nutrients for their own transformation. Compared to ordinary people, Martial Artist are more nutritious for them."

Hearing this, Jiang Fan finally understood why the First-Molt Ruins Species he had killed earlier had abandoned the flesh and blood it was devouring and instead fed to him and Zhou Yanchen after seeing them.

Especially towards him, their gaze seemed even more greedy.

It turns out that he was stronger than Zhou Yanchen, had more vigorous blood and energy, and looked more delicious and tempting.

"You said the Heaven-Reaching Tower is the gateway to the Ruins Realm, could it be that the Heaven-Reaching Tower has been breached?"

Otherwise, how could this First-Molt Ruins Species have appeared here?

Yan Tianyang shook his head, "Although the Heaven-Reaching Tower shows signs of being breached, it has not been completely breached yet."

"Then this—" Jiang Fan looked at the First-Molt Ruins Species that he had split in two.
