122: Advancement to Tier 3, a vast world spanning 78,000 kilometers! Square-shaped pursuit, a baseless accusation!

From Chen He’s previous position, a card shimmering with starlight floated out. As for why it didn’t float from Chen He’s corpse?

Because he had already vanished from all levels of existence.

【Fifth-Tier Creator Card: 1 million kilometers! (Self-destructing)】

This area… it seems Chen He had only just stepped into the threshold of the Fifth-Tier. No wonder many transcendent beings were still at the Epic stage, without even a single Legendary creature.

Su Bai was still nodding.

The next second,

Seeing the last three words, his expression immediately froze. Without another word, he threw the card into the Origin Realm and began frantically absorbing the land within it!

Chen He, that old fox, wouldn’t let him off easy even in death!

...Outside—

The intense commotion in the Bug World reached its peak a few seconds ago.

An ominous darkness, symbolizing ill fortune, seeped out from the previously torn rift, wispy and intensely black… Just a distant glance filled everyone with an irresistible dread!

“What is that… thing?”

Someone nervously swallowed.

No one answered. Everyone’s eyes were filled with fear, cautiously maintaining their distance from that mass of darkness, unwilling to touch even a single strand of it.

Time passed… In an eerie silence, a few seconds went by, and then this darkness suddenly dispersed.

Everyone, who had been breaking out in cold sweat, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately after,

They remembered Su Bai inside. Someone suggested going in to pick up the spoils:

“Such a terrifying commotion just now—even a Third-Tier Creator would surely die, let alone Su Bai? Now is the best time to go in and pick up what’s left!”

“You’re full of shit!”

“How long has that darkness been dispersed? What if it hasn’t gone far? If you want to die, don’t drag me with you!”

Someone cursed angrily, rejecting the previous person’s suggestion.

But others agreed.

“Su Bai is this year’s top scholar of great xia. Who knows how many benefits he has on him? What’s more, this is a bounty issued by Square!”

“If completed, the resources gained will definitely allow a few of us to advance further towards the Third-Tier!”

A burly man spat fiercely on the ground, his face ferocious:

“Damn it! Let’s do it! Fortune favors the bold. Isn’t he just a top scholar of great xia? Damn it, if he’s still alive, I’ll kill him myself!”

“Exactly! Aren’t Bounty Hunters all about seeking fortune in danger? If you’re afraid to die, don’t be a Bounty Hunter!”

“What are we still talking about?! Hurry and rush in! If we’re any later, those people from before might come back!”

“I…”

The Creators who dared to accept bounties in the starry sky were all desperate individuals. The Human Alliance’s rule against internal conflict was only limited to within Blue Star.

For Creators in the starry sky, there were no such restrictions!

After a flurry of discussions,

Opinions quickly unified. This group decided to venture deep into the Bug World to search for Su Bai’s corpse, and at the same time, quickly escape before that darkness returned!

The plan unfolded methodically… Soon,

The first batch of Bounty Hunters entered the Bug World. Everyone began to wait, yet several minutes passed, and these Creators still hadn't returned.

The burly man cursed loudly: “Damn it, are those bastards trying to hog all the benefits?”

The more he thought about it, the more something felt wrong.

Being a loose alliance with no trust between them, once this suspicion arose, the waiting Bounty Hunters immediately couldn’t sit still.

They rushed into the Bug World, jostling for position,

Fearing that if they were a step late, they would have to say goodbye to the bounty’s rewards.

Only the five who had arrived first remained still.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to move, but they were stopped by their boss. One subordinate asked, puzzled, “Boss? Hurry up and go down! If we’re any later, we really won’t even get a drop of soup!”

Slap—

The boss, his face grim, slapped him hard, then cautiously said:

“Run.”

“Huh???” The four were confused.

The boss didn’t explain, just grabbed the group and ran!

And not long after the group left,

Suddenly, among the Creators who had jumped in earlier, the burly man struggled out of the Bug World, waving at the five and crying out hoarsely:

“Save me!!!”

Just as he spoke two words,

Crack—

An inexplicable force covered his entire body, the vitality in his eyes began to dissipate, and at the same time, a Creator card condensed on his body surface!

“Three thousand kilometers? A bit low…”

A calm voice came from behind the burly man’s corpse.

When the corpse was moved aside,

The owner of that voice also appeared!

With sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, his imposing aura was like a peerless sharp sword drawn from its sheath. His eyes were as deep as an ancient well and a secluded pool, carrying a chilling coldness!

It was Su Bai!

...【Creator: Su Bai】

【World: Seventy-eight thousand kilometer Large World!】

【Rank: Third-Tier Creator!】

He had been promoted to the Third-Tier!

Everything seemed to happen naturally, without excitement or surprise, only a sense of calm.

In this battle,

He not only took advantage of Chen He’s severe injuries to kill this major hidden threat,

But also,

Promoted the Queen of Blades to Diamond Rank, and awakened a new innate skill, ‘Zerg Gene Bank,’ as well as Typhon’s godhead fragment.

This was a godhead fragment!

Su Bai had only luckily obtained one during the third stage of the College Entrance Examination.

He hadn't expected,

To get the second godhead fragment so quickly.

“Typhon’s godhead fragment can be used by the Titan Giant God. In the future, he can also evolve along Typhon’s path to godhood.”

“This way, the giant race can also benefit!”

“If all goes well.”

“The moment the Titan Giant God integrates the godhead fragment, the Rumbling Army will also undergo some changes. At that time, the Origin Realm’s strength will once again surge by a large margin!”

Su Bai calculated in his mind.

With the current strength of the Origin Realm, the Queen of Blades, the Titan Giant God, the Black and White Twin Kings… a total of four Diamond Rank beings!

Plus a Gold-rank Legion, the Dragon Rider.

And the newly acquired three hundred thousand Zerg Swarm Legion!

To put it a bit arrogantly, even if Su Bai were to declare himself invincible among his peers starting now, no one would dare to doubt him!

He had truly cultivated an invincible momentum!

With everything settled… Su Bai prepared to return to Blue Star, but the teleportation channel failed. Immediately after, in the vast starry sky, streaks of light, like lanterns, lit up.

One, two, three… A thousand lights, as bright as stars, lit up in the starry sky, actually dispelling the darkness near Su Bai!

Immortal Great Wall Army!

A thousand Creators from the Immortal Great Wall gathered here. At the forefront, Square stood with his arms crossed, his eyes gleaming with cold light, and his icy voice calmly transmitted:

“Wanted criminal, Su Bai, suspected of murdering human compatriots and possibly possessed by a Zerg Matriarch!”

“By law… he shall be executed!”

As his voice fell,

A cold sneer spread across Square’s face, and Su Bai’s eyes gradually turned cold.

The two of them,

Stared at each other across the galaxy, and a strong killing intent spread between them…
