The Fox Clan High Priest explained.

As they were talking, the battle between the two sea beasts in the distance had ended.

A monster resembling a crocodile, covered in black armor and with six pairs of fins, was defeated and died. The only fate of the defeated is death. Its massive body was torn apart, and its foul-smelling blood completely stained the surrounding area for more than ten kilometers red. Severed limbs and pieces of flesh were everywhere, and the pungent stench filled the air. Soon, even the beach was stained red, creating an extremely horrific scene.

Everyone had no choice but to cover their noses and ascend into the air.

"What do we do next? Are we going to have to cross this ocean?" Sun Fei frowned.

In any part of the Azeroth Continent, the sea has always been synonymous with danger. This vast ocean already teems with terrifying sea beasts in its shallows. If we venture deeper into the ocean, who knows what other dreadful creatures we might encounter? If a sea beast at the True God Realm were to appear, our entire army could be wiped out.

"Don't worry, someone will come to pick us up."

Fox Priest Fox smiled mysteriously, "The beach is relatively safe during the day. We'll camp here now, and someone will ferry us across the sea before sunset. The [ Land of Exile ] isn't far from here."

Upon hearing this, Sun Fei was greatly surprised.

Without asking any further questions, they found a beach untouched by the sea monster's blood and set up camp to rest.

Throughout the journey, Torres and the others worked extremely hard, seizing every opportunity to cultivate. It seems they were spurred on by the strength of the orc warriors, and now that they had some rest time, they didn't let up for even a moment.

The Valkyrie also entered the Diablo World to continue her training.

Her archer level has reached its limit, at Hell Difficulty 100, equivalent to the Blazing Sun Class Great Perfection, and cannot be raised any higher. Meanwhile, her Paladin Bloodline has reached Hell Difficulty level 88, and will soon reach its limit as well.

To Sun Fei's surprise, Elena's views on this matter differed from his own.

Although she could no longer improve her strength after reaching level 100 on Hell Difficulty, the Valkyrie unexpectedly unlocked a skill system. She could gain skill points by killing monsters and acquire some strange skills.

These skills are not found in the seven classes of the Diablo World; they are extremely powerful, and most are related to archery.

This is clearly a cultivation path completely different from Sun Fei's.

Meanwhile, Sun Fei was studying some books he had brought with him inside the tent that had been set up.

After clearing the seven classes, Sun Fei received a perplexing reward, but was unable to further improve his strength. He had to find a way to enhance his power on his own, and hunting undead demons to obtain mysterious free energy was one of them. So far, he has made considerable progress, and both his [ Paladin Mode ] and [ Barbarian Mode ] have advanced to the Mid-Stage Demigod.

However, this method of using Stand abilities has a fatal flaw—

The demons of Hell are not inexhaustible.

Currently, the Hell demon zombies imprisoned in the large circle outside the Anzhi Imperial Capital and within the territory of the Anzhi Empire have been almost entirely killed by Sun Fei, their numbers have decreased drastically, and this has slowed their evolutionary pace, making it difficult for Imperial Class zombies to emerge.

The free energy that the Hell demon zombies can provide can only sustain them until one of the remaining five dark classes reaches Demigod; that's the limit.

Of course, there is another way.

If Sun Fei were willing to break through the Light Magic Array at the border of the Anzhi Empire, allowing the power of the undead to rapidly expand and spread, then he could obtain endless zombies and endless free energy.

Unfortunately, as a fine young man who had been influenced by civilized society in his previous life, he would never do something so heinous.

For Sun Fei, if no other creatures that can provide free energy appear, it means that he must find another path to improve his strength.

Therefore, recently, Sun Fei has devoted a lot of energy to studying [ The Demon King's Sharp Sword ] and other martial arts classics from the mainland that he could collect, hoping to make other discoveries.

At the same time, how to advance from Demigod to True God is also a difficult problem that Sun Fei is trying to explore.

Sun Fei had been on guard ever since he heard High Priest Nash of Fox claim that the Orc Clan had once produced True God or even God King Level.

Unlike the Azeroth Continent, which has been ravaged by war for thousands of years, resulting in the loss of various traditions, the Orc Clan in the Forgotten Land, despite their harsh conditions, have not suffered from war or destruction by other races. In theory, they should have preserved a very complete set of martial arts classics from the ancient era of gods and demons.

If we can borrow these scriptures from the Beast God Temple, we might be able to find a way to advance to the level of True God.

On the beach in the distance.

O'Neal, Nowitzki, and other brute-force orc warriors were sparring and fighting to improve their strength.

High Priest Fox, however, seemed to be busy with something. After entering the animal-hide tent, he rarely showed himself, perhaps performing some of the orc priests' daily prayers and practices.

At noon, after everyone had lunch together, High Priest Fox set up a huge totem symbol about 100 meters in diameter on the white sand beach.

"This totem symbol is used to indicate our location," Nash explained.

Sun Fei pondered for a moment, observed the totem pattern, and then continued reading.

Time passed, and for most of the afternoon, everyone remained engrossed in their cultivation.

As evening approached, the roars of the giant beasts in the ocean grew increasingly mournful, and more and more enormous, dark figures appeared on the distant sea.

This must be as High Priest Fox said: at night, the amphibious sea creatures come ashore to engage in some lively nightlife.

Danger is slowly creeping up the coastline.

At that very moment, the giant totem symbol on the beach suddenly emitted an extremely soft golden flame, soaring into the sky.

"They're here! Everyone get ready, our people are here!" High Priest Fox exclaimed excitedly.

Everyone hurriedly set up the campsite and tied up the tents.

Sun Fei looked curiously at the boundless ocean in the distance, wanting to know what methods the beastmen used to cross this vast ocean with so many people without alerting the terrifying sea beasts.

However, to Sun Fei's great surprise, the person who came to meet him did not appear from the sea.

Instead, it descended vertically from above everyone's heads, like a helicopter.

When a huge shadow, obscuring the glow of the setting sun, appeared rapidly from the sky, the envoys from Chambord City couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
