Eager to return ho, Star even fluttered its wings a bit faster than usual. Soaring over the vast sky, Star was like a black arrow shooting towards the distant horizon. The massive sound explosion swept towards the once-familiar CH Town. Within less than a minute of taking off, Star had already flown out of the M City area. Ahead lay boundless forests.
Standing on Star's back, Wen Yu watched the scenery beneath him expressionlessly. Cyclops and Victor were on Star's head, tumbling about and enjoying themselves trendously. As Wen Yu looked down from Star's back, the ruins of nurous buildings below caught his eye. Rembering everything that had happened in Town hl and CH Town, Wen Yu suddenly spoke up.
"Wait, Star, let's go down and take a look."
"Huh? Oh..." Star replied, a little confused. It looked down at the shattered buildings below, then gradually slowed, spiraling down from the sky to land on the ground.
The familiar scenery made Wen Yu feel sowhat disoriented. This was indeed Town hl.
"What's the matter, Boss?"
Star and Victor didn't understand why Wen Yu had suddenly called a halt, but Cyclops had a hunch. Looking at the familiar scene, its Dog Nose twitched fiercely. After a mont, Cyclops spoke, "Boss, there's no sign of human presence, no Demon Fiends, nothing at all."
Wen Yu nodded. "It's right that there's nothing."
Indeed, there should be nothing. The forr Town hl had left a profound impression on Wen Yu. It was here he had t Sun Ruixing and Li Quan'an. But beyond them, there was sothing else unforgettable. Thinking of this, Wen Yu slowly closed his eyes.
His powerful Perception Ability began to spread. Simultaneously, darkness slowly seeped out from his body. The dense black fog quickly enveloped the entirety of Town hl. It was just like the ti Town hl had been encased by vines, only this ti, what enveloped Town hl was Wen Yu's Pitch-dark World! The infinite darkness, like extensions of Wen Yu's own limbs, ticulously scrutinized the land on his behalf.
Nothing on the surface...
Perceiving this, Wen Yu decisively manipulated the Pitch-dark World to perate the ground below.
Star and Victor idly pawed at the soil nearby, completely oblivious to the current situation or Wen Yu's objective. Cyclops, however, wore a serious expression, its ears pricked as it earnestly listened to the surrounding sounds. Star and Victor didn't know what Wen Yu was doing, but Cyclops understood perfectly!
Rembering everything that had happened in Town hl, Cyclops's fur bristled. Back then, those vines had tortured it to the brink of death... Now, it was ti for revenge!
The darkness penetrated the ground unimpeded.
Ten ters down, nothing! Not only were there no small subterranean creatures like insects, but even plant roots and stems were absent. This can no longer be explained away as a coincidence. There's only one explanation! The vines are still living in the area of Town hl.
Realizing this, Wen Yu's anticipation grew even stronger! At this thought, he focused his will, and the speed at which the darkness spread increased.
Twenty ters underground...
Thirty ters underground...
All the way down to fifty ters.
Just before Wen Yu's darkness reached a certain spot, a subtle vibration transmitted from beneath his feet.
This sensation made Cyclops's fur stand on end. Star and Victor imdiately straightened up. Perceiving this, a smile touched the corners of Wen Yu's lips.
"Found it! Prepare for battle. The opponent is a peak Level 5 plant-type mutant creature."
Wen Yu rattled off the information rapidly, then bent his knees slightly and shot backward nearly thirty ters like a cannonball.
BOOM!
A large pit, nearly a ter in diater, instantly appeared where Wen Yu had been standing. Through the thick smoke and dust, Wen Yu vaguely saw a flash of green retreating into the ground.
The three soul pets, already prid for battle, leaped to Wen Yu's side almost simultaneously, their bodies beginning to enlarge. In their mini-state, although their energy consumption was lower and their smaller physiques offered greater mobility, their combat power was significantly less than in their normal forms. In less than a second, three fearso behemoths had ford a tight protective circle around Wen Yu.
Seeing this, Wen Yu chuckled. "Don't be nervous. It's just a small fry."
Wen Yu was absolutely clear about the power disparity between them. Even if it was sothing special, it couldn't escape the constraints of the Level Lock. As long as it wasn't above Level 5 and wasn't a divine beast species with Limit Breaking Abilities, it posed no danger to him. He didn't know how to assess a plant's physical attributes, but judging from the strength of the vine's attack just now... the enemy was well within the range of being underestimated.
And events unfolded as Wen Yu had anticipated.
The vine's assault continued. Underground, massive branches, nearly half a ter in diater, began to burrow upwards. The entire area trembled as if an earthquake was occurring. Countless vines surged from below, rapidly extending towards the surface, visible within Wen Yu's Pitch-dark World. A foul stench emanated from their tips, which, like innurable sharp swords, aid at the feet of Wen Yu and his three soul pets, stabbing upwards with great speed.
Perceiving this, Wen Yu stamped his foot.
It was as if he were rely taking a normal step, gently tapping the ground. There was no earth-shattering impact, no dazzling display of light and shadow. Yet, the qualitative leap brought about by his physique, boasting over 13,000 points, was enough to instantly obliterate any normal Level 5 life form!
A horrendous wave of power radiated from his foot. Guided by his terrifying control ability, it perated the ground like a gentle ripple, seeping into the branches thrusting upwards by the vines. In an instant, the two forces t.
Within the perception of his Pitch-dark World, the vines that ca into contact with this power instantly shattered and disintegrated. Green, viscous sap splattered everywhere, only to be absorbed by the earth. The force continued to spread downwards, extending an unknown number of ters deep underground before slowly dissipating.
Then, a muffled thud. The ground throughout Town hl trembled with a RUMBLE, and then everything fell silent. Not only had Wen Yu's attack subsided, but the vine's assault had also ceased.
That single, brief stomp not only interrupted the vine's attack but also conveyed a clear fact to it: Here and now, I'm the boss!
