"Boom! Rumble rumble!!!"
In the distance, from the core area of the fortress, that world-shattering commotion sounded once again!
Even separated by countless buildings, one could still feel the power fluctuations capable of destroying heaven and earth!
The Abyssal Colossus!
That terrifying Calamity-level existence was clearly still moving within the fortress, wantonly unleashing its destructive desires.
Su Zhan looked up toward that direction.
Within the city.
From any random spot, one could see that colossus taller than the city walls.
Calamity-level...
That was currently the highest threat level of Mist Creatures in human understanding.
Its power far exceeded Special-risk level.
Like a moving natural disaster, it possessed terrifying strength capable of easily destroying large cities and even military fortresses!
The appearance of every Calamity-level creature ant a massive catastrophe!
They usually lurked in the deepest parts of the mist, rarely showing themselves actively.
But once they appeared...
Without Ocean Realm powerhouses erging, no one could stand against them.
The fall of South Cang Fortress was the most bloody example.
Su Zhan tightened his grip on his sharp claws.
Before this behemoth, his current strength was still as insignificant as dust.
Only through continuous hunting, continuous absorption, and continuous evolution could he possibly possess... a shred of confidence to face such existences in the future.
He collected his thoughts and continued his hunting journey.
...
Two hours later.
Su Zhan found a new target.
During these two hours, he hadn't hunted any other Mist Creatures.
The reason was simple.
There were too many Mist Creatures, gathered together in clusters, making hunting extrely difficult.
Another point was that he needed to select Mist Creatures with strength roughly matching his own.
Finding ones that t both conditions...
Was incredibly difficult.
In the previous two hours, he had only found one.
It was a Land-Splitting Savage Beast.
This monster resembled a giant ape but was covered in rock-like heavy armor, with two massive bone hamrs resembling battering rams at the ends of its arms, possessing terrifying strength.
It was a troubleso character among dium-risk fifth-tier creatures, renowned for pure physical power and strength.
"Roar!!!"
The Land-Splitting Savage Beast discovered Su Zhan, sensing his undisguised provocative aura.
It angrily beat its thick chest, producing drum-like thuds.
Then it dropped to all fours and charged violently, making the ground tremble!
Su Zhan advanced instead of retreating, his legs exploding with power, creating a small crater in the ground as his body shot forward like a cannonball.
"Boom!!!"
His scale-covered fist collided fiercely with the massive bone hamr.
A visible shockwave dispersed the surrounding smoke and dust.
Su Zhan felt an irresistible trendous force travel along his arm, scales shattering.
His entire body was sent flying backward as if hit by a high-speed truck, smashing hard into a pile of ruins behind him, sending dust flying everywhere.
"Cough!"
Su Zhan coughed up clotted blood mixed with organ fragnts, his right arm twisted, waves of intense pain washing over him.
But the Land-Splitting Savage Beast wasn't faring well either.
Fine cracks actually appeared on its bone hamr, the massive recoil bringing its charge to an abrupt halt as it let out a pained roar.
"Plenty powerful."
Su Zhan grinned, revealing a ferocious smile.
At his twisted arm, muscles writhed madly, black scales rapidly reforming.
The broken bones, supported by abundant Life Essence, healed rapidly within just two or three seconds.
He burst out from the ruins and charged at the Land-Splitting Savage Beast again!
The savage beast roared wildly, its other bone hamr sweeping horizontally!
Su Zhan abruptly dropped low, skimming the ground as he darted forward, narrowly avoiding the sweep.
His sharp claws viciously struck the relatively vulnerable area behind the beast's knee joint.
"Rip—!"
Thick hide tore open, dark red blood spraying out.
"Awooo!!!"
The Land-Splitting Savage Beast let out a miserable howl, staggering.
Su Zhan pressed his advantage without rcy, closing in to deliver another claw strike directly into the soft flesh of its armpit.
The savage beast, in pain, frantically shook its body, its other bone hamr smashing down randomly.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Su Zhan sotis blocked with his claws, sotis took the hits directly with his scale-covered shoulders.
The collisions made his blood and energy churn, scales shattering.
New wounds continuously appeared on his body, but his healing speed was astonishingly fast.
Often, a deep wound revealing bone would just appear when flesh buds would begin growing wildly, scales quickly covering it, leaving only a faint red mark after just a few breaths.
He traded injury for injury, blood for blood!
The Land-Splitting Savage Beast had greater strength, thicker defense, and decent healing ability.
But Su Zhan was more agile, with stronger recovery.
Tireless, fearless of pain and injury.
Sharp claws, knee strikes, tail sweeps...
Every part of his body beca a weapon!
Shattered scales and filthy blood flew together, roars and collisions resonated as one!
Finally, after forcibly enduring a heavy blow from the Land-Splitting Savage Beast that shattered his chest scales extensively and broke several ribs simultaneously.
Su Zhan's sharp claws also pierced through the gaps in the bone armor under the beast's jaw, penetrating its brain.
The Land-Splitting Savage Beast's massive body suddenly stiffened, the frenzy in its eyes rapidly fading into deathly stillness before it collapsed heavily to the ground.
Su Zhan, panting heavily, pulled out his claws, staggering slightly. The terrible injury on his chest was healing at a visible rate, broken bones regenerating, shattered scales reconnecting.
He felt the further strengthened power and surging Life Essence within him.
Licking the blood at the corner of his mouth.
Absorb Life Essence.
dium-risk third-tier, achieved!
Then he imdiately concealed himself, without the slightest hesitation.
"Roar—!"
"Screech—!"
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
Monster roars rose and fell all around.
And there were extrely many, coming from all directions.
The ground began to tremble slightly, clearly indicating large creatures approaching.
Su Zhan's heart sank.
The extrely noisy close-quarters battle from earlier had inevitably attracted the Mist Creatures from the surrounding area.
He could sense that the approaching monsters were definitely not scattered weaklings like before.
Several of the auras were no weaker than, or even surpassed, the Land-Splitting Savage Beast on the ground.
And judging by the commotion, there were probably no less than ten, possibly even more!
Once surrounded, even with his astonishing recovery, he would definitely be worn down to death here, and might even attract more terrifying existences!
"Trouble..."
Su Zhan didn't hesitate, imdiately concealing himself as he moved away from the area.
Racing away.
Escape!
Su Zhan sped through the ruins.
One minute later, the sounds behind him ceased.
He thought he had shaken off the pursuers, but his vigilance didn't decrease in the slightest, still constantly monitoring his surroundings.
Several kiloters away.
Wang Mingyuan stood with his hands behind his back, expression complex.
He had already been in South Cang for over an hour.
Relying on his unique Life Soul to conceal his aura, he had been secretly observing Su Zhan.
As for Feng Jue and the others wanting to co here with him.
He had sternly refused and arranged for them to go to a safe place.
"Good alertness... It seems these months of training weren't wasted."
He thought to himself.
Su Zhan's current reaction was exactly what a warrior tempered on the edge of life and death should display.
Not relaxing because the danger temporarily disappeared, but instead becoming more cautious due to the inexplicable phenonon.
This gave him so relief.
"He must be terrified, right?"
Wang Mingyuan could almost guess Su Zhan's current ntal state.
If his tracks were discovered, then any random High-risk Mist Creature from the entire city would an certain death for Su Zhan.
Those Mist Creatures from earlier had already discovered the direction Su Zhan fled in.
They were about to give chase.
Wang Mingyuan made his move.
Easily dealing with those Mist Creatures.
"Quite injured... But, this recovery speed... It seems his growth is even faster than I anticipated."
Wang Mingyuan sighed inwardly: "Well, the stronger this power becos, the greater his capital for survival in the future. Only... the road ahead will be even harder to walk."
