Chapter 302Meanwhile, the tall, slender girl, Luo Ningxue reappeared in her original spot, looking discouraged.​Her friend, Su Lian, immediately walked over and asked, "Ningxue, how did it go?"​Ningxue stared blankly for a moment before managing to whisper, "I... lost."​Su Lian was stunned. Luo Ningxue lost? That was impossible to believe. Ningxue continued, "Not only did I lose, but he beat me head-on with pure power!"​Su Lian gasped. As her best friend, she knew how strong Ningxue was. Even a demigod-level expert would struggle against her. Normally, if Ningxue lost, it would only be because she ran out of energy after hiding in the void where nobody could find her. How could she lose in a direct head-on fight?​"How did you lose?" Su Lian asked.​Ningxue took a deep breath. "His physical strength is unbelievably powerful. Even my demigod-level defense could barely handle his sword energy. Plus, he has at least six or seven high-level talents—metal, wood, wind, fire, thunder, a

Chapter 304 Ever since Ningxue asked her to find talented warriors, Su Lian had been searching everywhere without any luck. As the eldest daughter of the Su family, finding warriors was usually easy, but the secret place Ningxue wanted to explore was too important to trust with just anyone. If word leaked, it would cause major trouble, and trustworthy candidates were hard to find. She had considered choosing people from within her own family, but for some reason, the Su family had produced almost no standout children in recent decades—aside from herself, of course. At most, there were a few ordinary geniuses, but their strength wouldn't be enough to handle a high-stakes secret location. "How frustrating!" Su Lian frowned, irritated. To clear her head, she decided to log into the virtual network. As soon as she connected, she saw a notification. Opening it, she realized it was a friend request from Mo Fan. "Well, well! After making me wait so long, you finally decided to add me!"

Chapter 306 The starship found a flat expanse of ground and settled down with a faint vibration. The heavy cargo hatch slid open, and advance teams of warriors immediately poured out to scout the surrounding area for several hundred meters. "Group one is secure!""Group two is secure!""Group three is secure!" Confirmation crackled rapidly over the communicators. Only then did Su Lian and Luo Ningxue step off the ramp, with Mo Fan following close behind. The moment his boots touched the unfamiliar soil, a bizarre, frigid black mist seeped into his body. This energy was extraordinarily dense and malicious; the moment it touched a warrior, it began to sluggishly dampen their blood qi and sap their stamina, sticking to the skin like cold sweat and causing deep discomfort. This must be dark matter energy, Mo Fan thought to himself. Looking around, he noticed most of the other warriors had activated protective energy shields to block the miasma. A few had pulled out specialized lumi

Chapter 308 Mo Fan looked into the distance. Dozens of miles away, a faint pillar of spiritual charm stood quietly. Its glow was so dim that it would be nearly impossible to spot with the naked eye without a careful look. Yet, a familiar aura emanated from that pillar, pulling at Mo Fan's senses. "Let's go take a look!" Curious, Mo Fan flew straight toward it. He arrived in an instant. The moment his boots touched the ground, the familiar feeling intensified dramatically. This location was the summit of a small hill featuring a flat platform on top and a sheer cliff on the opposite side. Focusing his senses, Mo Fan realized the source of the resonance was coming from the cliff beside the light pillar. He walked over and discovered a man-made cave hidden away in the rock face. "There's an artificial cave here?!" Startled, Mo Fan stepped inside to investigate. The chamber was tiny, measuring only a few square meters—clearly a makeshift shelter hastily dug out by a warrior lon

Chapter 310 At the same time, the Sky-Escape Light-Chasing Beast charged in for another attack. Its momentum surged once more, pushing its speed to such an extreme that even Mo Fan struggled to track its movements. In a blur, it closed the distance and materialized directly in front of him. BOOM! The beast brought a massive paw down with terrifying force. The sheer pressure compressed the surrounding dark matter, setting off a chain reaction of popping sonic booms and violent shockwaves. "Slice!" Channeling his surging strength, Mo Fan refused to dodge. He met the attack head-on, swinging the Cangming Sword with all his might. Though the beast was fierce, its true lethality lay in its speed and spatial mastery. When it came to raw physical might—especially with his baseline strength amplified by 500 times—Mo Fan felt entirely confident he wasn't outmatched. He held no fear whatsoever. CLANG! The sword energy and the beast's claws collided, erupting into a deafening roar as a
