Although Zhang Junbao had broken through to the Star Level, he was not in a hurry to claim the account left by Hu Yanbo. The round trip to Qiu Long Star would take a month, and he was unsure when the Golden Horned Beast would descend upon Earth.
Unlike Luo Feng in the original novel, who was so poor he could only sell weapons, Zhang Junbao is not too short of money now.
By broadcasting battles live in the Virtual Universe Network and engaging in constant gambling, Zhang Junbao's wealth has reached an astonishing level.
It must be said that technology has changed the traditional way of life for martial artists. Although many martial artists still search for treasures in various extreme universes, not all martial artists need to go to extreme places to obtain treasures. In the Virtual Universe Network, there are also plenty of opportunities to obtain treasures.
Zhang Junbao has not forgotten his original aspiration. His constant challenges in the Virtual Universe Network are merely a way to hone himself by drawing on the geniuses in the universe.
Even Hong, Thunder God, and Luo Feng are rapidly improving their strength in the Virtual Universe Network Killing Field. Although they can't make money through gambling battles like Zhang Junbao, they can certainly hone their skills.
Zhang Junbao had tried it; his super license could be opened to others, meaning that Zhang Junbao could allow them to experience the crisis of death in the Virtual Universe Network, thereby promoting the evolution of their physical genes.
This solves the problem that the original Virtual Universe Network could not allow people to experience death.
However, there were too many secrets involved, and Zhang Junbao did not dare to open it to them directly. He only secretly activated it during a chance trial. The powerful sense of crisis that erupted when they were on the verge of death made them dare not be easily killed in the Virtual Universe Network. The training effect was completely comparable to real combat.
Even so, their cultivation speed has already far surpassed that of others who are training in the Virtual Universe Network.
In just over a year, not only did Thunder God break through to the Star Level, but even Hong broke through to the Star Level, which made Babata exclaim in disbelief. Why were Hong and others able to break through to the same level one after another, when it would normally take decades or even centuries to reach such a level?
Even Luo Feng has reached the Planetary Level Ninth Grade, making his final effort to break through the Life Gene Level.
Six months later, the Earth, which had been peaceful for a long time, finally faced another crisis.
" Junbao, an urgent distress call has come from the America. A massive beast tide has appeared in the western waters of the America, exceeding the scale of a Class I disaster."
A Devouring Beast is frantically devouring America war bases and will soon lead its monsters to break through human defenses.
The America defense system has almost completely collapsed. Even the Third Speaker, the Ice Snow Emperor, dared not launch an attack. He concluded that the strength of this Devouring Beast that of the two previous Demonic Beast Emperor.
" The Devouring Beast? It's finally here? I've been waiting for you for so long!"
"Babata, why has the Earth monitoring system never issued a warning?" Zhang Junbao asked, puzzled.
"Earth monitoring system? Do you suspect this Devouring Beast came from outer space?"
Let me see what it looks like.
Babata said slowly, in its opinion, the strongest monsters that can be born on Earth right now are only at the Planetary Level, which Zhang Junbao and his group can easily deal with, and are not worth paying attention to at all.
It was simply a distress signal from the America, which he relayed to Zhang Junbao.
But what Babata saw made his jaw drop.
"This Devouring Beast has four hooves, scales covering its body, fleshy wings, and a long horn with golden runes on its head. Is this the Golden Horned Beast, a peak race in the universe?"
How could that be!
How could Starry Sky Behemoth, especially the most powerful race, possibly exist on Earth!
In his more than 60 million years of lifespan, his master had traversed countless star systems and encountered only three Starry Sky Behemoth, none of which possessed such a superior bloodline!
Babata couldn't believe it. "A Golden Horned Beast has actually appeared on your Earth!"
"It must have come from outer space, so why didn't Earth's defense systems detect its arrival?"
It is only a little over 180 meters long. By the way, it must have arrived on Earth in the form of an egg before it hatched.
It's perfectly normal for the eggs of Starry Sky Behemoth to possess the ability to conceal themselves and conduct reconnaissance in order to avoid being hunted by other races in the universe, especially for Golden Horned Beast with the element of Gold-Space.
There must be some secret writing on its eggshell that our purchased instruments can't detect!
"Babata exclaimed."
"A secret text that conceals detection? That's possible. The egg of Golden Horned Beast with a peak cosmic bloodline—it's indeed a bit far-fetched for ordinary detection devices to find its traces."
"Babata, what's the strength of this Golden Horned Beast?" Zhang Junbao asked to confirm. He didn't want to rashly attack and find that the Golden Horned Beast's strength was different from what he remembered.
"It has a long horn with a lot of golden runes on its head, and there is a protrusion next to the horn. Judging from the appearance of the protrusion, it has not been long since it entered the Star Level. This means that it is currently at the Stellar Level One."
"Even Stellar Level One being is invincible among First Order beings!" Babata explained.
"Oh? That's good then. Even if I don't know if the Golden Horned Beast, a top-tier race in the universe, can challenge four Star Level Seven, it's still a challenge?"
"Huh? Of course not!"
Oh right, I was so intimidated by the name of the Starry Sky Behemoth that I forgot that Earth's fighting power is not weak these days!
Both Hong and Thunder God are Star Level One, and both possess domains, so they could put up a fight even against the Golden Horned Beast.
You have already reached the Star Third Order, and in the virtual network universe, you can already easily crush the Star Level One Golden Horned Beast.
Not to mention there are also four Star Level Seven slaves.
Ha ha ha ha...
This is absolutely a stroke of luck!
Junbao, grab it!
Do you remember me telling you about methods to overcome the limitations of your own racial genes?
That means possessing a life form with a higher Gene Level. Now, a top-tier Gene Level life form like the Golden Horned Beast is right in front of you. Even your teacher, who has traversed the universe for thousands of epochs, has never encountered such an opportunity!
Babata shouted excitedly.
If no one on Earth can currently stand up to the Golden Horned Beast, then Babata would advise Zhang Junbao to leave and escape Earth. The pinnacle races of the universe are not to be challenged lightly; otherwise, they wouldn't be called pinnacle races.
But now, Babata sees the Golden Horned Beast and finds it exceptionally cute.
With such a great opportunity presented to him, as long as Zhang Junbao possesses it, he won't need to worry about Gene Level issues until he becomes Immortal.
One could reach the World Lord Level simply by lying down and sleeping every day.
"Once you possess it, your cultivation will be as fast as a rocket!"
Zhang Junbao did not answer, but instead ordered all the Star Level slaves to assemble and take Luo Feng and the other two to the American Continent.
"That Devouring Beast is the Golden Horned Beast, the pinnacle race in the universe?" Hong's eyes lit up. Although he had witnessed the terrifying power of the Golden Horned Beast, Hong was now filled with excitement.
He had already learned from Babata that the Golden Horned Beast was Star Level One, and he was also Star Level One. Hong wanted to test his own strength!
"Senior Brother, could you let me and Thunder God have a try? We both have domains, so theoretically we should be invincible among our peers. The Golden Horned Beast, a top-tier race, is also known as invincible among its peers. So who is truly invincible?"
Hong looked at Zhang Junbao, his eyes filled with burning desire.
Yes, Hong admitted that he had become arrogant. If it were a year ago, Hong, who had not seen much of the universe, would never have dared to confront a powerful enemy like the Golden Horned Beast head-on.
But now, isn't Zhang Junbao there to back you up? Thunder God, who is also Star Level One being, was utterly humiliated in front of Zhang Junbao.
Moreover, judging from Zhang Junbao's expression, he wasn't worried about the Golden Horned Beast.
If all else fails, he'll send all four slaves at once. He really doesn't want the Golden Horned Beast to be able to kill four Star Level Seven who are far above its level!
This is one of the benefits of having early access to the universe.
Even if their current strength is inferior to the Golden Horned Beast, they can still crush it with their "money power." Besides, Hong doesn't believe he's much weaker than the Golden Horned Beast.
"Sure, not just the two of you, Luo Feng too, one by one. Do you think such a valuable opponent as the Golden Horned Beast will appear in reality?"
"It's rare for the Golden Horned Beast to come to Earth, so the four of us should at least show it proper hospitality and give it a good sparring session."
Zhang Junbao smiled. He had no intention of killing the Golden Horned Beast so easily. They had only fought in the Virtual Universe Network before. This was the first time they had truly come into contact with a powerful being from the universe, and the Golden Horned Beast was a peak Starry Sky Behemoth with the bloodline that was said to be invincible among its peers.
We have to squeeze every last drop of value out of it.
Those who refuse what Heaven offers will surely be punished by Heaven.
They were given such a great opportunity by Heaven; to waste it would be the greatest blasphemy against Heaven.
Luo Feng was equally excited. Although he was only at the Planetary Level Nine, he showed no fear in the face of the Golden Horned Beast, which was at the Star Level.
In the Virtual Universe Network, he has also Strongest Battle at the Star Level.
Moreover, Luo Feng also felt somewhat resentful. He had already Planetary Level Nine, but he was still unable to comprehend his own domain.
This made Luo Feng feel inferior to Zhang Junbao and the other two when they faced each other, as he felt his talent was not as good as theirs.
Despite Babata's repeated Luo Feng that the domain was not something Planetary Level being should have, Luo Feng was more willing to believe what he saw with his own eyes, given the facts before him.
Babata even said that Starry Sky Behemoth couldn't possibly appear on Earth, but here one is right before our eyes!
Seeing the eager group of people, Babata had nothing more to say. Since meeting Zhang Junbao, nothing had ever gone as he had imagined.
The four, accompanied by four Star Level slaves, moved with incredible speed, arriving on the American Continent in just over ten minutes. From their vantage point, they looked down at the Golden Horned Beast was frantically devouring the metal war base underground.
" Meng Yi, the four of you, surround it and don't let the Golden Horned Beast escape."
"Yes, Master!"
The four slaves quickly spread out to the four corners, surrounding the Golden Horned Beast in the middle. From the conversation between Zhang Junbao and the others, the four slaves already knew that what they were facing was the Golden Horned Beast, a peak race in the universe. However, all four of them were Stellar Level Seven. Even though they were slaves and did not have any good secret techniques, their strength was undeniable. The suppression of their absolute power made them completely unafraid of the Golden Horned Beast.
Moreover, as slaves, even if they knew they were no match for the Golden Horned Beast, they had no choice but to obey Zhang Junbao's order to self-destruct.
The Golden Horned Beast also discovered the group. After devouring the war base beneath it, its golden eyes were filled with savagery as it coldly stared at the people before it.
In its inherited memory, a planet like Earth should have no rivals.
A few tiny insects dared to challenge its majesty; it must show them what the true majesty of a peak-level Starry Sky Behemoth bloodline is.
"Roar!" The Golden Horned Beast roared, and a power of bloodline suppression erupted with its aura.
Zhang Junbao and the others felt a sudden pang of heart palpitation, but they quickly suppressed it.
"Is this the power of bloodline suppression? Just his roar alone can instill fear in us."
Trying to intimidate us with bloodlines?
"Brothers, let's open a domain and broaden its horizons!" Hong felt a tremor in his heart. If even he felt this way, Thunder God and Luo Feng must have felt the same pressure. As for Zhang Junbao, that freak, Hong didn't see any change on his face.
The three major domains erupted simultaneously, enveloping the Golden Horned Beast, causing its proud head to suddenly halt!
No, this is a domain. Even a top-tier bloodline like itss hasn't mastered a domain at the Star Level. Why do these three little bugs in front of it possess such terrifying power?
As for Luo Feng, a Planetary Level Nine without a domain, he was automatically ignored.
In an instant, scorching light, eroding lightning, and Spacetime Distortion —three forces dominated the Golden Horned Beast, completely suppressing its explosive momentum back into its body and continuously eroding the scales on its surface.
The Golden Horned Beast was somewhat bewildered; having been born less than a year ago, it simply couldn't comprehend the situation before it.
This isn't how the script is supposed to go! Shouldn't I be invincible from birth? Why are there so many powerful enemies in front of me?
As each Golden Horned Beast egg drifts through the universe, it is somehow guided to a planet with an excellent growth environment and no powerful enemies.
But what they were seeing forced even the proud Golden Horned Beast to take the situation seriously.
The Golden Horned Beast turned to flee. As long as it continued to devour the metal on Earth, its strength would increase rapidly, and then it would have nothing to fear from Zhang Junbao and his companions.
But as soon as the Golden Horned Beast moved, Zhang Junbao kicked it back.
"Trying to run away? Now that you're here, stay put and don't even think about going anywhere!"
The Golden Horned Beast finally realized that the few small insects in front of it had no intention of letting it leave.
Humiliation and resentment erupted from the Golden Horned Beast. According to its inherited memories, it should be the king of the universe, an invincible being.
A few tiny insects dare to try and stop it!
"Roar!"
The Golden Horned Beast roared in resentment, its golden eyes filled with fighting spirit!
