A cold system prompt rang out, but Qin Feng’s face betrayed no emotion.
He retracted his Long Spear and turned toward the Teleportation Light Gate leading to the second floor as if he had just swatted a fly.
「The Second Floor.」
The scene transford into a vast, damp Insect Nest cavern filled with creep and sli.
There was only one battle here.
And he had only one opponent.
It was a terrifying creature that stood five ters tall, its entire body covered in a dark purple carapace, closely resembling a praying mantis.
Its forelimbs were two massive, three-ter-long bone blades that glinted with a tallic luster. They were as thin as a cicada’s wings, yet incomparably sharp. Its compound eyes were filled with a pure, cold Will, born only for slaughter.
An Insect Race specialized assault unit—a Vanguard of the Blade Queen’s Guard!
The mont Qin Feng appeared, it moved.
No roar, no intimidation.
Its figure blurred in an instant, transforming into a streak of purple lightning. Its two massive bone blades slashed out in a cross pattern, sealing off all of Qin Feng’s escape routes!
The speed of this strike was even faster than the Green Skin Lord from before!
However, the sa scene played out again.
Qin Feng stood his ground, neither dodging nor evading.
It was the sa simple, direct thrust.
CLANG!
The purple figure ca to an abrupt halt in mid-air.
The two massive bone blades, sharp enough to cleave through Alloy Armor, were parried with pinpoint precision by the tip of a black spear, unable to advance another inch.
With a flick of his wrist, his spear struck like a dragon!
The Insect Race vanguard’s head exploded on impact.
Another instant kill.

「The Third Floor.」
Sixteen battles. The opponents were all chanical Race combat units, even more advanced than the ones Qin Feng had encountered on his last mission.
They ranged from "Death Mark" assassins equipped with phase weapons that could ignore physical defenses, to "Doomsday Ark" floating platforms that fired Antimatter Energy Balls for area-of-effect bombardnt.
Every battle was fraught with lethal danger.
But for the current Qin Feng, it still made no difference.
In the face of absolute, crushing power, all tactics and skills seed futile.
One spear thrust after another.
Every battle ended in under a minute.
Sixteen battles, sixteen instant kills!

「The Fourth Floor.」
The mont Qin Feng stepped through this floor’s Light Gate, the scene before him made him frown for the first ti.
Here, there was absolute darkness.
There was no light source, no sound, not even the feeling of air currents.
His ntal Power spread out, but it was like a stone sinking into the ocean, completely devoured by the strange darkness.
At that mont, a slender figure, almost one with the darkness, appeared behind him without any warning.
It was a humanoid creature of average height, its entire body a semi-transparent form that seed to be made of pure shadow.
Its body seed to be an aggregation of countless dancing photons and dark matter particles. It had no fixed form, yet it maintained an elegant and deadly humanoid silhouette.
The Shadow Race!
In its hand, it held a dagger also ford from pure shadow energy, constantly twisting and morphing.
The instant it appeared, the dagger transford into a silent streak of light, stabbing viciously toward the center of Qin Feng’s back!
The strike was silent, traceless, and impossibly fast!
CLANG!
In the nick of ti, relying on his superhuman combat instincts, Qin Feng swung his spear backhanded and precisely parried the fatal backstab.
However, upon missing its strike, the Shadow Race expert’s body instantly dissolved into a wisp of dark smoke and rged into Qin Feng’s own shadow on the ground, vanishing without a trace!
Qin Feng’s pupils contracted sharply.
’He could feel it. The opponent hadn’t left. It was lurking in a dinsion he couldn’t perceive—within the shadows!’
The next second, the shadow at his feet twisted, and the poisoned shadow dagger once again stabbed toward his ankle from an unbelievable angle!
Qin Feng leaped back abruptly, narrowly avoiding the strike.
But imdiately after, the Shadow Race mber rged back into the darkness and launched a third, fourth, and fifth attack...
It seed to be everywhere, capable of attacking from any place a shadow could be found.
Its speed was incredible, and its killing techniques had reached the Realm of Perfection. Every attack was aid straight for Qin Feng’s vitals.
From the very start, Qin Feng was forced onto the back foot, passively enduring a one-sided assault.
He challenged it more than ten tis in a row.
Each ti, he used every trick in his arsenal.
But every ti, he was unable to truly lock onto the Shadow Race mber’s position. In the end, he would inevitably have his stamina drained by the endless, indefensible sneak attacks and suffer defeat.
’He just couldn’t win.’
The sheer difference in speed, combined with the opponent’s bizarre ability to travel through shadows, caused all of his attacks to hit nothing but air.
After failing his fifteenth challenge, Qin Feng finally chose to give up.
’He knew very well that with his current strength, it was almost impossible to defeat this Shadow Race expert.’
’Unless... he could also cultivate the "Wind and Thunder Long Staff" technique he had just redeed to the Realm of Control. If he could master that ultimate single-point burst power, he might have a chance to kill it the instant it appeared.’
