Chapter 485 Sealing off the Dark Land
"It seems that the strangulation power I perfected by imitating the chaotic storm at the edge of the cosmic sea is indeed much stronger than the simple power erosion I used before."
Watching the world beasts rapidly dissipate, Chen Yuan nodded secretly.
This killing efficiency is much faster than the battle against the Purple Moon Holy Land.
It seems that the killing efficiency of the two secret techniques is not much different, but most of the enemies he killed back then were just cosmic lords, while the world beasts he killed now are equivalent to true gods!
Of course, while killing the Beasts of the Realm, Chen Yuan did not forget to collect their body materials, including scales, horns, blood, and severed limbs.
Just a few seconds later.
As Chen Yuan withdrew the power that held them together, the small universe finally collapsed. However, none of the world beasts that had been trapped inside survived.
With just one strike, at least millions of world beasts perished under this secret technique.
Of course, even with so many of their kind perished, the remaining Beasts still held onto hope, believing that the opponent must have consumed a tremendous amount of divine power to unleash such a powerful secret technique, making it impossible for them to use it continuously.
Unfortunately, the Beasts were wrong this time. Although the divine power consumed by using the Palm Universe technique was considerable, it was only a drop in the ocean compared to his vast reserves.
Faced with the increasingly fierce attacks of the World Beasts, Chen Yuan calmly unfolded his second miniature universe, then a third, and a fourth—
Gradually, the beasts stopped swarming forward and began to show hesitant expressions.
Clearly, no matter how ferocious and bloodthirsty they are, when faced with a 100% certain death, their fear still prevails over the thought of attacking.
By the time all the world beasts stopped charging and began to scatter and flee, Chen Yuan had already unleashed the Palm Universe Secret Technique ten times.
The number of World Beasts that have perished in the miniature universes is no less than ten million!
"This is impossible!" a second-tier world beast roared madly. "Where did you get so much divine power? Is your divine power reserve inexhaustible?"
"You guessed right," Chen Yuan smiled slightly, "It is endless."
After saying that, he no longer restricted his size and directly transformed into his peak 2.4 light-year divine body.
"Infinite Divine Body!"
At this moment, all the world beasts were filled with despair. It was actually an infinite divine body. What could they possibly use to wear down the opponent?
Not to mention, at this moment, behind Chen Yuan's divine body, a faint phantom of a churning ocean of divine power was emerging, replenishing Chen Yuan's divine power.
This phantom ocean is even more terrifyingly large, with a diameter exceeding ten light-years!
With such a massive amount of divine power, it would be easy to replenish Chen Yuan's energy even a hundred times, let alone just once.
How can they possibly fight against such a reserve of divine power?
"Damn it!"
Within the mental network of the Beast Realms, some had already begun cursing: "How unlucky we are to have encountered such a monster!"
"It's too early, we don't have time to develop at all!"
"Most of our clansmen are only at the first rank, not only are they weak, but they also possess far too few skills!"
"If we were to reach our peak strength, with thirty sixth-tier world beasts attacking together, the human race would definitely be no match for us!"
"What should we do? We can't stay in our hideout anymore. If we scatter and flee, maybe some of us can survive—"
"As long as one of us survives, guided by the rules, we too can become a fully-fledged World Beast King!"
"In this way, our Beast Clan won't have lost!"

Gradually, more and more Beasts decided to leave, since they were indeed finding it difficult to fight against Chen Yuan now.
Rather than being worn down by the enemy little by little, it's better to take advantage of the large number of people in the race and escape to the vast ocean of space to play hide-and-seek with the enemy!
The advantage of this is that as long as one Beast of the Realm survives, it can directly transform into the ultimate king under the guidance of the rules.
That will be the time to take revenge on the other side.
But just then, they heard Chen Yuan say, "You guys are really too weak!"
"I was really looking forward to fighting against the strongest race in the legends, but you have disappointed me greatly."
At that moment, a Beast of the Realm had an idea and suddenly roared, "—Human!"
"If you're looking for a powerful opponent, you've come too soon!"
"Our race is newly born, and most of our members are only at the first level of strength, but that does not mean that the strength of our World Beast race is only that much."
"Above the first tier, we have the second tier, the third tier—and even the strongest, the seventh tier, the final King of the Beasts!"
"If you are looking for a powerful opponent, I believe the ultimate champion will be able to meet your requirements."
"Primordial Lord, I know you are a lonely powerhouse, because you have been invincible for too long, which is why you so yearn for an evenly matched opponent."
"Then you should be even less inclined to interrupt our path of evolution."
"Only our Beast race can produce a powerhouse comparable to, or even surpassing, yours."
The Beast leaped out, its two heads fixed on Chen Yuan: "Lord of the Primordial Beginning, if you dare give us time, we will ultimately grant you death!"
"So, do you have the guts?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan suddenly smiled, and his laughter grew louder and louder.
"Hehe————Haha————Hahahaha————"
"Beast of the Realm, putting aside my courage, you certainly have quite the nerve to speak to me like that?"
He stopped smiling, his expression turning cold: "However, you are right about one thing, which is that I do need an evenly matched opponent!"
"Okay, I can give you time to develop!"
Before the beast could show any joy, he changed the subject: "However, my patience is limited, and I can't wait indefinitely."
"If you develop too slowly, I might as well wipe you out first, then pass through reincarnation and go to a new world."
"Therefore—I'm giving you a thousand epochs to develop; this is the limit of my patience."
He paused, then continued, "Once the time limit is up, no matter how much you've grown, you will have to fight me head-on."
.
A thousand epochs?!
The beast was both happy and worried. It was happy that its life had been saved and that it could have a period of development, but it was worried that this period of development was too short!
Normally, the Beasts of the Realm need to develop until the end of this cycle before the final king is determined. And now there are still more than six trillion epochs until the end of the cycle!
But they had no choice but to accept the conditions offered by Chen Yuan.
"Alright, it's a deal!" the Beast of the Realm roared. "Lord of the Primordial Beginning, as the strongest being in the Universe Sea, I hope you will keep your promise."
"Of course." Chen Yuan smiled faintly, then said, "But since you want to develop in peace, then you'd better stay here obediently and don't even think about sneaking away."
"I have marked each of you. If any of you dare to leave the Dark Land, don't blame me for taking action."
"————Of course!" The ugly beast gave Chen Yuan a deep look and nodded. "This is our lair, and we won't leave unless absolutely necessary."
"That would be for the best," Chen Yuan said calmly. "Anyway, if someone leaves and dies at my hands, don't say I didn't warn them."
"Beasts of the Realm—you'd better watch yourselves."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure vanished instantly.
After a moment, the remaining Beasts dared to speak.
"—Are you really gone?"
"It seems... we can't sense any presence anymore."
"What do you think the Primordial Lord's true purpose is? Is it really to find an opponent?"
"It's possible, but not necessarily entirely accurate."
"I also believe he has ulterior motives, such as locking us in this dark place to prevent us from venturing out and wreaking havoc on the cosmic sea!"
"That makes sense, that idea is very likely! So, has anyone noticed the marks he mentioned on us?"
'
,
The many beasts looked at each other in bewilderment, because they had already used the power of destruction to examine their entire bodies and found no marks at all.
"Perhaps the Primordial Lord is just deceiving us?"
"Should we test the waters? Send someone away from the lair."
With the collective wisdom of the eight hundred million world beasts, Chen Yuan's true purpose was quickly guessed.
However, Chen Yuan's threat before leaving still intimidated many of the Beasts of the Realm.
Anyway—they're just staying in their lair. If the Primordial Lord hadn't come in today, they wouldn't have even considered leaving.
But some people had ideas because of this, and Morosa was one of them.
"The Primordial Lord—according to my intelligence, this person is quite young and not at all the so-called 'lonely' powerhouse who has been invincible for many years."
It sneered inwardly, a confident expression appearing on its ugly face: "This person's purpose must be to intimidate the Realm Beasts, preventing us from leaving our lair, thus giving him time to develop!"
Indeed, in Morosa's view, Chen Yuan should not have the strength to win with one blow, and at the same time, he was worried that the World Beasts would scatter and leave, so he resorted to this tactic to restrain them.
"Then—should we do as he wishes?" It fell into deep thought.
It was equally unsure about the mark Chen Yuan mentioned, and Morosa valued its life highly, so it wouldn't risk everything to verify a conjecture.
"A test is certain, but it might not be me." The thought raced through its mind, and then it conveyed this conjecture to the other members of its tribe through telepathy.
Soon, with the encouragement of some World Beasts, a group of World Beasts, numbering around several hundred, actually decided to go out and explore. They dispersed and entered the Cosmic Sea from different directions.
If Chen Yuan had simply been guarding somewhere outside, it would have been impossible for him to kill all of these world beasts.
If he could do all this, then he must have marked every single Beast, just as he said!
Soon, the test yielded results.
Not long after these Beasts left their lair, they all perished in a very short time. Hundreds of Beasts perished within two seconds of each other!
"—It seems that what the first ruler said was true."
After a moment of silence, a Beast of the Realms spoke up: "The fact that the other side was able to kill these clansmen in such a short time means they have most likely detected our movements."
"Continuing to probe will only increase casualties."
This idea was supported by many Beasts of the Realm. Although they were still unsure of Chen Yuan's true intentions, leaving the nest was clearly impossible, and even the Beasts of the Realm were unwilling to die in vain.
Moreover, unless faced with a life-or-death crisis, the Beasts are naturally unwilling to leave their lairs.
"Gentlemen, let the fighting begin!"
The Beast of Boundaries stepped forward and shouted, "Regardless of what the Primordial Lord's true intentions are, we don't have much time left!"
"To exact revenge on him, we need to determine the final victor as soon as possible!"
Upon hearing this, the entire dimly lit place instantly became lively.
Faced with Chen Yuan's threat, this group of world beasts abandoned their usual slow evolution speed and went berserk, engaging in a fierce battle with their companions.
Of course, even so, the ultimate king will not appear so easily. The world beasts can only do everything they can to increase their strength before the agreed deadline.
However, whatever the future fate of these Beast Realms may be, it is none of Chen Yuan's concern for the time being.
