The Bronze Skull Beast roared.

It didn't want to be this way, but it had no choice, after all...

Pain was emanating from all parts of my body.

Numerous wounds, large and small, covered its body, and even its originally hard mask had developed a thin crack during the recent confrontation.

But none of these are what it fears most!

What it fears most is the Origin Power within its body, which has become even more restless due to the recent attack.

If this continues, it probably won't be long before it loses control of the Origin Power within its body due to the Origin Power it has to forcibly draw upon, and thus falls into Distortion.

Thinking of this, the Bronze Skull Beast couldn't help but grit its teeth.

"Hateful!"

Cursing under his breath, the Bronze Skull Beast stared intently at the human.

It seemed that its previous words had an effect, because the opponent did not launch a direct attack as before.

Instead, it gradually slowed down and eventually hovered in the air not far away.

The two stared at each other.

"Call--"

Shen Heng hovered in mid-air, breathing softly with his mouth open.

He adjusted his state while looking down at the Bronze Skull Beast.

The Bronze Skull Beast was staring intently at him, blood dripping from its body, highlighting its numerous wounds.

His gaze swept over the huge scratch that ran from one side of his body, down his back, and to the other side. Shen Heng lowered his eyes and pondered.

Giving up now seems like a good option for both sides.

One side, due to environmental factors, gained the strength to overthrow the other.

On the other hand, it also demonstrated in the recent battle that it is very difficult for the opponent to kill it.

Both demonstrated their strengths.

But at the same time, it also showed that it was not so easy to deal with.

In this situation, non-aggression seems to be a good option for both sides!

With their strength, as long as they don't provoke the other party, surviving in this space should be quite easy!

The only problem we'll face is probably how to get out!

but...

Shen Heng looked at the Bronze Skull Beast.

If left unchecked, Sixth Tier creature would likely be a disaster for anyone else trapped in this space!

So, the problem now is...

Intervening doesn't guarantee killing the other party; there's also a chance of encountering danger.

If we ignore it, we're both safe, but for others, it's like throwing a bomb.

Shen Heng lowered his eyes, deep in thought.

As he pondered, the Bronze Skull Beast kept its eyes fixed on him.

After a while, seeing that the human still didn't react, the Bronze Skull Beast asked again, somewhat impatiently:

"Hey, human, what's your decision?"

There was no response, but the human's attention became focused.

This was a conclusion the Bronze Skull Beast drew directly from the feeling of being watched.

After all, the opponent was completely covered in armor, so it couldn't see the opponent's eyes and could only judge the situation through those.

Then, without responding, the human just stared at it, as if scrutinizing it.

The Bronze Skull Beast shifted its body, sensing a slight unease.

This was the first time since its birth that it had been scrutinized by a creature weaker than itself!

But the situation was stronger than the beast, so it forcibly suppressed its unease.

Then, time flowed on.

Just as the Bronze Skull Beast was feeling increasingly uncomfortable and was about to ask a question...

The human finally spoke:

"You probably don't want to become a Distortion, out-of-control beast, do you?"

"Um?"

The Bronze Skull Beast stared at the human with a furrowed brow, its eyes filled with confusion.

It wasn't that it didn't understand the meaning behind the other person's words, but rather...

"Isn't that obvious? Who wants to be Distortion into an out-of-control beast?!" the Bronze Skull Beast replied in a deep voice.

"In that case, let's do our best together!"

A soft voice came from behind.

The Bronze Skull Beast was even more confused.

It gazed at the figure standing still in the air.

The other person was shrouded in black armor, so their expression couldn't be seen, but their words revealed their determination and indifference.

that is...

Try your best? Try what? Let's work together...

"I will try my best to kill you, and you..."

The Bronze Skull Beast looked over.

The human continued to gaze at them, his voice still resolute and indifferent.

"He tried his best to suppress the restless Origin Power within him while resisting me."

"Resist until I'm certain I can't kill you before your Distortion is complete."

"I will leave then!"

Perhaps I didn't hear clearly, or perhaps I did hear clearly but couldn't quite believe it.

At this moment, the Bronze Skull Beast stood in the air, somewhat dazed.

The next moment.

A cold light suddenly burst forth in its eyes.

"Boom--"

The mountain trembled, and boulders fell with a clatter.

The Bronze Skull Beast flew out of the smoke and dust at high speed.

Its gaze was fixed on the location of the mountain, and the corner of its mouth twitched wildly.

Pain was emanating from all parts of my body.

The Origin Power within the body also became restless due to the resistance that had just been unleashed again.

But both of them are actually okay; at least it can still control them!

But the anger in his heart was something he couldn't suppress at this moment!

Both of us tried our best? He tried his best to kill me? And I tried my best not to be killed?

Damn it! Damn it! Damn it all!!

This human is really pushing his luck and bullying the beast too much!

The Bronze Skull Beast stared intently at the figure that burst forth from the dust and rushed towards it, then opened its mouth and roared loudly:

"Human, I'm telling you, don't fall into my hands, or I will tear you apart, grind your bones to dust..."

There was no response.

The cold light magnified wildly in its eyes.

"Boom! Boom! Boom--"

Intense bombardment resounded wildly.

Two streaks of light collided violently in the sky above the mountains and forests at an even greater speed than before.

The sound spread rapidly outwards.

At that moment, figures in the mountains and forests looked up...
