The ti reset ability of the Clock Monster couldn’t revert the Power of the Ti Domain absorbed by the Curse Crow, so with each absorption, the Clock Monster weakened a bit more.
This particular Clock Monster was rather lucky, surviving five consecutive ti resets without dying. However, by the fifth revival, the Curse Crow had drained its entire Ti Domain, causing its level to drop to Gold nine.
Jiang Lingyun nudged Li Cunxu from behind, glancing around.
"Boss, I don’t know if it’s just my imagination, but it feels like there are many pairs of eyes secretly watching us."
"Your feeling is correct; there are indeed many eyes on us."
Li Cunxu followed the sensation to a prying gaze and saw the Watch Monster peeking at them from the attic window of a house.
Actually, in this secret realm, for those unfamiliar with its intelligence, the Watch Monster is the most dangerous. Their levels are relatively low, they’re small and can beco invisible, and they don’t initiate attacks, seeming quite friendly. But that’s all an illusion.
If you ignore them, you’ll suffer greatly.
If you fail to notice them in ti, you might even die.
The Watch Monsters are influenced by the Ti City Monster’s law of killing, similar in murderous intent to the Clock Monster. The reason they appear not to attack is that, in reality, they’ve already secretly gone for the kill on you.
The Watch Monster has a ti-stealing skill: as long as they co within ten ters of you, they can steal one minute of your life each ti they activate it.
This skill has a disgusting aspect: after a Watch Monster uses it to steal ti a hundred tis, the effect doubles, stealing two minutes at once and expanding the range to a hundred ters.
aning, anyone within a hundred-ter radius can have their life stolen by a Watch Monster.
Once it steals a thousand tis, it steals four minutes at once, expanding the range to a thousand ters.
When it steals a million tis, it steals eight minutes at once, with the range expanding to ten thousand ters.
...
Who can endure such a thieving thod?
Li Cunxu said, "Xiaoruan, expand the All Things Domain by a hundred ters, suppress everything indiscriminately."
In an instant, everything around—buildings, Watch Monsters, Brass chanical Horse Carriage, and bionic robots—was flattened.
The bionic robots are another easy trap in this secret realm. Bionic robots without a chanical soul aren’t chanical pets. Their behavior is pre-set and poses no threat to people.
If you overlook them, you’ll pay a heavy price.
With careful observation, one can actually discover that the majority of bionic robots wear watches and tipieces.
Those seemingly different watches and tipieces are all disguises of the Watch Monsters.
Don’t think the bionic robots without watches and tipieces are safe; they’re robots and can conceal more than one watch.
Therefore, it’s correct to deal with all the bionic robots in sight.
Pieces of gears and small nuts the size of sand grains fell from where each Watch Monster died, reflecting yellow or silver-white light.
Gears and nuts are ti-attribute materials, and no ti-attribute material cos cheap.
Li Cunxu waved his hand, using the Celestial Pavilion Ring to collect the small gears and nuts.
The Clock Monster also dropped quite a few items—a palm-sized gear, a fist-sized nut, and that Hourglass Long Spear.
The battlefield hadn’t been cleared yet when disturbances arose from afar, coming from all directions.
Upon a closer look, many Clock Monsters were leaping over rooftops, rushing towards them.
The commotion from earlier must have startled them.
While jumping, the Clock Monsters used ti acceleration on their feet, exerting maximum effort as they hurriedly raced to reach Li Cunxu before the others.
Many Clock Monsters threw their Hourglass Long Spears even before they arrived.
One by one, the Hourglass Long Spears flew towards them like missiles, but upon entering the airspace of the All Things Domain, they all landed in vain.
The gap in strength was too vast.
Xiaoruan’s All Things Domain fought evenly with the pet beast of Overlord Three, easily handling this group of lord-level pet beasts.
"Xiaoruan, expand the All Things Domain to five hundred ters."
All the Clock Monsters within the five-hundred-ter radius were flattened; those entering the area afterward also collapsed.
Xiaoruan began marking targets for a kill, waiting for the Curse Crow to absorb the Ti Domain from one Clock Monster before killing another.
Though Jiang Lingyun had witnessed this scene many tis, she was still awestruck.
Even Li Cunxu couldn’t help but sigh.
"A domain truly is a divine tool for crushing weaklings."
With Xiaoruan’s help, the Curse Crow’s Ti Domain rapidly expanded.
Two thousand ters.
Three thousand ters.
Four thousand ters.
When it reached four thousand ters, Li Cunxu called a halt.
"Prepare for battle and retreat."
Li Cunxu looked towards the marching Clock Tower Monster, his expression slightly serious.
The Clock Monster’s evolved form—Clock Tower Monster.
Every Clock Tower Monster exists at the Overlord level and possesses a skill Li Cunxu fears imnsely.
Upon seeing this Clock Tower Monster’s level, Overlord Seven.
Li Cunxu decisively decided to retreat.
Why fight when you cannot win?
Though a Clock Tower Monster is only at Overlord Seven, it’s a super rare ti-attribute chanical pet, and its true combat power nears Overlord Nine.
The Clock Tower Monster is strong, but it has a fatal weakness: its speed is too slow.
This is a trait of the Clock Tower Monster race.
The more they evolve, the slower they move.
Watch Monsters, within the low-level pet beast category, are considered particularly fast; it’s one of their advantages.
Once evolved into a Clock Monster, that advantage disappears. Their speed appears rather diocre among those of the sa level.
A Clock Tower Monster, even an Overlord Nine Clock Tower Monster, isn’t as fast as a Lord Nine Clock Monster.
The ultimate evolution, the Ti City Monster, resembles a castle, and its cumberso weight makes its speed at the King level comparable to that of a tortoise.
Li Cunxu mounted the Fla White Horse, and within three minutes, they’d left the Clock Tower Monster far behind.
Continuing to mark and kill Clock Monsters, enhancing the Curse Crow’s Ti Domain.
Five days later, the Curse Crow’s Ti Domain reached the lord-level limit of ten thousand ters.
Fifteen days later, Xiaoruan’s All Things Domain expanded to fifty thousand ters.
A fifty-thousand-ter All Things Domain marks a qualitative leap.
Xiaoruan said, "I have a vague intuition that my All Things Domain can decompose the Overlord pet’s Dominator Body, absorbing Domain Power from it."
"Decomposing the Dominator Body to absorb Domain Power from it? Is a fifty-thousand-ter All Things Domain really that strong?" Li Cunxu exclaid in disbelief.
To test Xiaoruan’s intuition, Li Cunxu hunted an Overlord Four Clock Tower Monster.
The hunt for the Clock Tower Monster involved Xiaoruan and the Blood Lotus Fla Flood Dragon.
The Blood Dragon Domain and the All Things Domain both spread out.
The All Things Domain rged into the Blood Dragon Domain, initiating Domain Transformation of the Dragon.
Integrated with the All Things Domain, the Blood Dragon Domain transford directly into a Blood Dragon with the strength of Overlord Five.
The Blood Dragon and Clock Tower Monster grappled and twisted together.
Jiang Lingyun said, "Aren’t we a bit too far away?"
The two’s positions were a ten-thousand-ter distance away from the battlefield.
"To guard against the Clock Tower Monster’s special ti-attribute ultimate move, it’s necessary to be this far."
