I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 2308 An Encounter with the God Lord
“Let’s go,” the tabby cat perked up. “Let’s go take a look. I’ll take you to the base of that triangular object to find out what’s going on. We need to get ready to end all this.”

Liu Jun nodded and put the twelve Divine King Realm puppets, which looked like wooden stakes not far away, into his storage space, ensuring that he could take them out at a critical moment and unleash their maximum combat power.

Then, carrying the Golden Spirit Embryo, he followed closely behind the giant tabby cat and set off together.

After running for about ten minutes, the large tabby cat suddenly stopped. Liu Jun also keenly sensed something unusual. He peered ahead and saw a clear trail of track tracks on the ground not far ahead.

"This is... a track track?" Liu Jun was shocked. This was the God Realm! Track tracks, such a high-tech product, seemed out of place here. It was undoubtedly a clue left by the pseudo-number one AI.

This discovery made Liu Jun even more certain that they were getting closer and closer to the enemy hiding in the shadows.

The tabby cat also noticed the track tracks, and its eyes instantly became sharper: "These were left not long ago, probably by the machines that just captured my people."

Upon hearing this, Liu Jun's eyes revealed concern and determination: "Should we save them?"

Since they were so close, he naturally decided to rescue the cat.

However, the tabby cat shook its head, a complex struggle flashing in its eyes: "No, acting now will alert them. We must proceed cautiously and not risk losing more than we gain."

The cat and the person set off again, following the winding mountain path. Half an hour later, they finally reached the top of a cliff.

"There!" The tabby cat suddenly stopped and pointed to a spot ahead with its paw.

Liu Jun looked in the direction it pointed and saw a huge steel fortress standing in the distance.

The fortress was magnificent and imposing, seemingly an impregnable fortress, surrounded by various technological marvels. Robots busily moved around the fortress, emitting bursts of noise and the clatter of mechanical operation.

Liu Jun's gaze swept around the fortress, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. He had never seen such a high-tech product before, as if he had stepped into a future world.

"This...this is actually the base of the fake No. 1 AI?" Liu Jun muttered to himself.

He couldn't imagine that such advanced technology existed in the realm of gods, a world full of spiritual energy and cultivation.

Compared to the rudimentary base of Brain One, this place is undoubtedly much more impressive.

“That’s right, this is the base of that triangular object.” The large tabby cat nodded, its tone grave. “We can’t get too close to observe, otherwise they’ll easily discover us, and then a whole bunch of incredibly powerful machines will appear.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Jun nodded inwardly. Clearly, the big tabby cat must have suffered a loss before it could say such a thing, otherwise it wouldn't have been observing the pseudo-number one AI's base from such a distance.

"Oh no, run!" The tabby cat's ears twitched slightly, and its eyes flashed with alertness.

Its claws swiftly and powerfully hooked onto Liu Jun's clothes, and almost in the same instant, it carried Liu Jun into the roadside bushes, rushing away into the distance like a bolt of lightning.

Not long after leaving that dangerous place, a strangely shaped flying machine with a cold metallic sheen quietly landed where they had just been.

The machine's surface flashed red light, constantly scanning its surroundings, like an invisible giant net trying to capture any possible movement.

Fortunately, it did not find any trace of Liu Jun and his group. After confirming that it was safe, it leisurely left the area.

The flying machine emitted a low, continuous humming sound as it flew, and even after Liu Jun had been led far away by the large tabby cat, he could still faintly hear that unsettling sound. Fortunately, however, the thing did not detect their presence.

"It's like those reconnaissance aircraft in the movies, isn't it?" Liu Jun frowned, his eyes revealing a hint of seriousness.

Having watched many science fiction movies, he knew all too well how terrifying such high-tech equipment was; once discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable.

By this time, they were far from that dangerous place. The big tabby cat and Liu Jun finally stopped and hid in a relatively safe and secluded spot.

The tabby cat lay on the ground, panting slightly. Clearly, the rapid sprint had taken a toll on its energy.

"That flying machine is really annoying." The big tabby cat licked its paw, its eyes full of disgust. "It can spot us from far away, no matter where we hide."

Liu Jun gently stroked the large tabby cat's back to comfort it. He knew exactly what was going on; even in the human world, let alone with such advanced technology, finding a cat would be incredibly easy. With thermal imaging activated, hiding anywhere was futile.

"It seems we need to be more careful," Liu Jun said in a low voice.

Just then, a deafening roar came from afar, a sound filled with boundless rage and fury. Immediately afterward, a shrill scream pierced the night sky, sending chills down one's spine.

Liu Jun and the tabby cat were walking side by side on the forest path when they heard the sound. They stopped in their tracks, a hint of seriousness flashing in their eyes.

After exchanging a glance, they made a decision almost simultaneously, and in a flash, they sped off like arrows towards the direction from which the sound came.

Passing through dense forests and parting clumps of lush green grass, they finally arrived at the source of the sound. The sight before them shocked them; they could hardly believe their eyes. A dozen or so ferocious beasts resembling African hyenas lay on the ground, but these beasts were several times larger than elephants. Their bodies were covered in wounds, dripping with blood, and they were clearly lifeless.

The eyes of these ferocious beasts, which should have been filled with wildness and cruelty, were now empty and filled with despair.

Among the corpses of these ferocious beasts stood a humanoid figure. This person was burly, with a mouth full of fangs, limbs as thick as ancient trees, and his entire body was covered with thick black hair, exuding a terrifying aura that sent chills down one's spine.

"Holy crap, it's the God Lord!" Liu Jun almost turned and ran away in fright. He recognized the humanoid figure at a glance; it was the God Lord whom he had previously framed.

At this moment, the God seemed very different from before. He exuded an indescribable evil power that inspired fear in everyone.

The large tabby cat recognized the African hyenas lying on the ground. It knew that each of these creatures possessed the strength of a quasi-god king and was one of the most ferocious predators in this Valley of Burial Gods.

They are not only powerful, but also cruel, often preying on weaker species such as cats.

The tabby cat knew their strength all too well, and knew how small and powerless its own kind was in front of them.

However, this group of powerful and ferocious beasts were now all lying on the ground, lifeless.

Moreover, judging from the scene, they all appeared to have been killed by the same person. Even more shockingly, the killer was still standing there unharmed, as if the massacre he had just experienced was nothing more than a game to him.

Liu Jun and the big tabby cat exchanged a glance, both seeing deep shock in each other's eyes.

"This guy is terrifying! Let's go, I feel like he's about to find us!" The tabby cat's eyes flashed with unprecedented tension and vigilance.

It quickly glanced at Liu Jun beside it, and then an invisible spiritual force silently entered Liu Jun's mind.

Liu Jun's heart sank. He understood the tabby cat's intention without needing to say a word. That seemingly lazy but actually incredibly clever cat had clearly sensed the danger to the God Lord.

He himself was still shaken by the terrifying aura emanating from the God Lord, because he had fought against the God Lord and knew how powerful the God Lord was.

Just as the two (one cat and one person) were carefully backing away, trying not to make a sound with each step, as if even the air had frozen, a sudden and terrifying force swept over them.

"Not good!" Liu Jun exclaimed inwardly. He and the big tabby cat reacted almost simultaneously. Without the slightest hesitation, they fled without looking back, their speed almost exceeding their limits.

With a deafening roar, the spot where they had just stood was instantly blasted by a powerful force, leaving a shocking crater.

Around the crater, highly corrosive energy raged, melting even the hardest rocks and emitting a pungent, chilling odor.

Liu Jun's hair stood on end instantly, a chill ran down his spine, and the tabby cat's fur stood on end as well, showing its extreme panic.

Needless to say, the two (one cat and one person) increased their speed again, as if they were racing against death, with every step on the edge of life and death.

"We have to speed up!" Liu Jun cried out in his heart. He knew all too well that if the God Lord caught up with them, even if the two of them, one human and one cat, joined forces, they would probably not be able to escape their fate of death.

Fortunately, the God didn't intend to pursue them; mainly, he was hungry. His bloodthirsty, crazed eyes held no anger, only a thirst for food.

After chasing Liu Jun and the others away, the God Lord unceremoniously grabbed the huge hyena carcass from the ground and began to gnaw on it. His actions were crude and direct, completely disregarding the bloody scene, as if all the rules of this world meant nothing to him.

If you look closely, you'll notice that the deity at this moment has traces of blood at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes reveal a primal wildness and satisfaction, just like a wild beast.

Liu Jun and the cat ran a long distance before stopping, panting heavily, his face filled with lingering fear, only after confirming that the God Lord was not chasing them.

"This guy is terrifying. I've never seen anything so terrifying in the Valley of Burial Gods." The big tabby cat panted heavily, its voice trembling slightly.

Its eyes were filled with terror, as if it had just experienced a nightmare.

Liu Jun took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then said, "I've seen him before. I've fought with this guy before."

"Then you're very strong too!" Upon hearing this, the big tabby cat looked at Liu Jun with some surprise, a hint of admiration flashing in its eyes.

Upon first seeing this terrifying creature, it didn't even have the courage to fight. It never imagined that this human had actually fought such a terrifying being.

Liu Jun sighed helplessly, shook his head and said, "I was just taking the beating unilaterally."

He wasn't powerful enough to rival the God Lord. The reason he was able to hold his own against the God Lord before was because of his speed and ability to run fast. In a direct, head-on confrontation, he would have been killed long ago.

Recalling his encounter with the God Lord, Liu Jun still felt lingering fear. He knew very well that his strength was far inferior to the God Lord's, and that he was able to escape that time entirely thanks to his speed and wit.

Upon hearing this, the large tabby cat's eyes flashed with worry. In this dangerous Valley of Burial Gods, strength determines everything. Although they were clever enough, the gap in strength was insurmountable.
