Beast tides are the most terrifying phenonon in the Otherworld.
Even compared to a god-level BOSS, a beast tide is far more nacing.
Although a beast tide is composed of regular monsters, they always move in massive groups and at a staggering scale.
Once they lock onto a target, they launch relentless, wave-after-wave attacks.
Forget about defeating a beast tide—
Throughout history, the number of professionals who could withstand a beast tide's onslaught can be counted on one hand.
Beast tides are divided into levels, ranging from Level 1 to Level 9.
In his past life, Zhang Yue died during the largest Level 9 beast tide...
Now, looking at the swarm of Level 61–62 parasitic worms flooding toward him, Silent Plum in the back and the bystanders all around couldn't help but feel a cold sweat for Zhang Yue.
They were convinced that he couldn't possibly survive this beast tide's assault.
However, Zhang Yue remained calm and unhurried, raising the staff in his hand.
At the sa ti, he summoned the Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon, the Hell Skeleton King, and the Shadow Predator.
Faced with the beast tide, he launched his counterattack.
ROAR—
The Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon opened its massive maw, unleashing Destruction Dragon Fla and Destruction Dragon Breath in tandem, consuming a vast area and countless parasitic worms within it.
With a double-layered heavy hit dealing 210,000–230,000 damage, the densely packed parasitic worms in that zone were annihilated instantly.
After acquiring the Tenth Realm's purple wings and achieving a 20% boost to all attributes, the combat power of the Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon, the Shadow Predator, and Zhang Yue himself had significantly increased.
The next mont, the Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon landed heavily on the ground, using its mountain-like massive body to block the beast tide.
In the Tenth Realm, parasitic worms don't pose much damage individually. Only after evolving into parasitic beasts by devouring living creatures do they beco formidable adversaries for professionals.
With the protection of the Level 60, 8-star SSS-grade Eternal Set and the purple wings, the legendary-grade Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon boasted a physical defense exceeding 8,000. Against these parasitic worms with just over 9,000 attack power, it stood unshaken.
The Level 61–62 parasitic worms frantically ramd into the Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon, causing clusters of damage ranging from 2,000 to 3,000 on its head.
anwhile, Zhang Yue swapped the Eternal Set for the Void Set.
Hurling an SS-grade Thunderstorm into the swarm, he absorbed 30% of the damage, instantly stacking the Void Shield on the Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon to five tis its maximum health.
Thus, the Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon doubled as a tank and a damage dealer.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Its energy cannon fired like a machine gun, "rat-tat-tat-tat," bombarding the swarm wildly.
At the sa ti, the Shadow Predator moved like lightning, weaving through the swarm at incredible speed.
With massive crit damage exceeding 300,000 per hit, it tead up with the Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon to slay the parasitic worms one by one.
Zhang Yue, on the other hand, kept attacking, continuously stacking the Void Shield on the Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon.
This swarm, already at the size of a Level 1 beast tide, couldn't even threaten one of Zhang Yue's pet dragons.
The surrounding casual players were utterly stunned.
This proved that Zhang Yue was still a loser.
He relied entirely on the Twenty-Four Winged Extinction Black Dragon and the Shadow Predator to deal damage.
Fortunately, there was the Hell Skeleton King to back him up.
At this mont, Zhang Yue scanned the area and discovered—
The Hell Skeleton King was missing.
"Damn! When did it die?"
Now that even the backup was gone, Zhang Yue truly seed like the weakest.
As a result, a battle that should've been resolved in one minute took Zhang Yue five minutes to finish.
After the last group of parasitic worms crawling out of the volcano crater was exterminated and silence returned to the area—
Zhang Yue couldn't help but sigh, "This 7-star gear set needs replacing."
Yet, what Zhang Yue considered a diocre performance was nothing short of legendary in the eyes of the onlookers.
"Holy crap! He defeated a Level 1 beast tide alone?"
"That's insane! He's a monster!"
After clearing the beast tide, Zhang Yue spread his wings and flew into the volcanic crater.
Before long, under Silent Plum's anxious gaze, Zhang Yue erged.
He landed directly in front of Silent Plum, raising a dark gold ring in his hand.
Seeing the ring, Silent Plum's eyes lit up with childlike joy: "This is the ring my great-grandmother left !"
"Finally! The ring is back!" Silent Plum cupped the ring with both hands, tears streaming down her face.
The ring in her hands turned out to be a legendary treasure ring.
It had no level requirents and could expand the wearer's storage space by 100%.
Frankly, it wasn't particularly useful. But to Silent Plum, it was her great-grandmother's only keepsake, an invaluable treasure.
After expressing her gratitude, Silent Plum once again tried to transfer money to Zhang Yue, only to be declined.
Confused, Silent Plum asked, "Why... are you helping ?"
Zhang Yue didn't answer her question directly. Instead, what he said next left Silent Plum utterly shocked: "Your great-grandmother's surna was Xuan, right? Xuan Lan."
"How... how do you know that?"
Looking at Silent Plum, Zhang Yue sighed, "You look just like your great-grandmother."
When Zhang Yue first saw Silent Plum in Sky City, he thought he had seen his best friend from his past life: Xuan Lan.
But upon reflection, that era was over a hundred years ago. Even if Xuan Lan were still alive, she couldn't possibly be this young.
Moreover, Zhang Yue had researched and found that Xuan Lan had passed away decades ago.
The only explanation was that Silent Plum was Xuan Lan's descendant.
And it turned out to be true.
Xuan Lan, known as Fire Phoenix in the Otherworld, was a legendary Fla Master.
A century ago, she, along with Asura and Thunder God, was one of the top three masters of the Dragon Nation. Her status and strength surpassed even the likes of Crouching Dragon and Hidden Dragon.
Both she and Thunder God had been Zhang Yue's closest friends in his past life.
Recalling the countless battles they had fought together, Zhang Yue felt a wave of nostalgia.
However, Zhang Yue knew that the stronger a human beca in the Otherworld, the more their physical body in the real world was enhanced, extending their lifespan.
Take Crouching Dragon, for example. Though he seed old, he could easily live another seventy to eighty years, even to 120.
Logically, Xuan Lan shouldn't have died so soon.
Fire Phoenix was a renowned figure in the Dragon Nation, with fa surpassing even Moon Mark, Ice Emperor, and Seraph.
Yet Zhang Yue found no record of Xuan Lan's cause of death online.
So, Zhang Yue asked Silent Plum, "How did your great-grandmother die?"
Shaking her head sorrowfully, Silent Plum replied, "Six years ago, she gave this ring and entered the Otherworld. She never ca back..."
This ant it wasn't certain that Xuan Lan had died.
Zhang Yue pressed on, "Which realm did she last enter?"
Silent Plum thought for a mont and said, "It should be the 88th Realm. She often told stories about that realm, so I think she was working on it at the ti."
In Zhang Yue's past life, the furthest humans had reached was the 70th Realm. He had no knowledge of the 88th Realm's conditions or layout.
Ard with this information, Zhang Yue imdiately sent a ssage to Ouyang Ling'er: ["Look up the strategy for the 88th Realm."]
["The 88th Realm?"] Ouyang Ling'er was surprised. ["Why would you need that? Don't tell you've already reached the 88th Realm? Terrific!"]
Though surprised, she followed his request and investigated.
The conclusion: ["The 88th Realm doesn't have any standout features, except for a mysterious passage called the Gate of Eternity."]
["According to the records, the Gate of Eternity also appears in the 77th, 66th, 55th... and the 11th Realm."]
'The Gate of Eternity?'
Zhang Yue was intrigued.
Why had he never heard of the Gate of Eternity in his past life, even after conquering realms like the 11th, 22nd, and 33rd?
