I have a volume of human scriptures

For a long time afterward, Yu Chen continued hunting in the same way.

He remained hidden at the very bottom of that primordial space, searching for a lone squad of hunters.

If a suitable target is found, then kill it with lightning speed and take its remains to the Origin Space to devour it.

After breaking through the bottleneck, his devouring speed was incredibly terrifying. He could even devour the corpses of enemies who were also generals within a few months!
If one is not absolutely certain, then it is better to give up this opportunity than to take another risk.

In this way, he never failed and never got into danger.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of years have passed. He has devoured no less than a hundred generals. But unfortunately, after breaking through the bottleneck, the world's origin power required for evolution has become increasingly vast. Most of the hundred generals he devoured had just broken through the bottleneck and could not provide him with much world's origin power. Therefore, in these thousands of years, he has only evolved four times, reaching a total of forty-four evolutions.

Along the way, he also left traces on the battlefield of despair, and then withdrew from the battlefield, returning to the side of the Primordial World through the traces he left in that so-called "forbidden zone".

I want to see for myself whether I am now qualified to fight against that primordial world.

Unfortunately, even after evolving forty-three times, he still felt that the vast Primordial World was unfathomable when facing it.

Even though the inner demon Huang Zhuo is already severely injured, if they rashly start a battle, the outcome may be unpredictable.

But to his relief, the inner demon, the Yellow Bracelet, remained asleep, showing no signs of waking up.

This gives him more time to continue devouring and evolving.

After a brief stay, he returned to the battlefield and continued hunting.

Over these millennia, the hunter faction was not entirely unresponsive.

Although hundreds of hunter generals are just a drop in the ocean compared to the entire Desperate Battlefield.

However, a rumor circulated among the hunters' armies belonging to this region.

—Legend has it that within the World Alliance camp, besides the soldiers who usually fight and kill them, there is a ghost hidden in the shadows.

This ghost appears and disappears without a trace, shrouded in mystery.

He had somehow obtained some profound primordial spatial artifact, which he usually hid deep within that primordial space. Once he had an opportunity, he would kill any lone general with lightning speed.

In less than ten thousand years, hundreds of generals have been killed by him.

What's even more disgusting is that this guy can clearly detect the movements of his own army and never gets any closer to the hunters' army.

They only targeted those lone scout squads and slaughtered them mercilessly.

As a result, the squads eventually had to patrol in groups.

Even so, the enemy has been killing to sustain itself, and in just a few thousand years, its strength has become incomparable to what it was before—it is estimated that it now has the strength to confront a general who has evolved forty-four times.

It's even just one step away from the general who has evolved forty-five times.

The threat to all scout squads in the entire army is growing stronger.

Under these circumstances, a general in charge of the scout team finally could no longer tolerate it.

All the commanders of the scout squads were gathered together in an incredibly vast dimensional space.

He revealed his plan.

This general, who has evolved forty-five times, resembles an enormous giant Kun, with a human-like upper body growing from its head. Its entire body is covered with incredibly thick scales, radiating an aura of boundless terror.

It is called the Deep Sea.

Below him were thousands of generals.

They are all powerful entities that have broken through bottlenecks.

—Logically speaking, this power should have been able to kill the ghost in an instant.

The reason that ghost is a ghost is because it hides in the deepest part of the original space and will only make a move when it is absolutely certain of success; otherwise, it will never take the risk.

The Deep Sea World knew that if they went out with such a lineup, they would probably never see that "ghost" again in their lifetime.

and so……

"Gentlemen, a hundred of our comrades have already died at his hands. This is absolutely intolerable."

The sound emanating from the deep sea was like the roar of an endless ocean, vast and powerful, shaking the eardrums!

The generals below, who were also oddly shaped, looked at each other and all showed expressions of approval.

Over the years, they have been utterly tormented by that ghost.

Whenever we go on a mission, we always take precautions against possible attacks from any unexpected corner.

Exhausted physically and mentally.

"Therefore... this time, we must eliminate them!"

The deep-sea world took a deep breath, and the entire dimensional space trembled and shook. The overwhelming pressure belonging to the general descended, endless and boundless!
"But... General, this ghost is elusive. How can we find him? How can we surround and kill him?" A general frowned and asked.

"No, surrounding and killing him is useless. As soon as he senses any possible encirclement or ambush, he will escape in an instant."

The Deep Sea World shook its head and said, "—So this time, I will take action myself!"

The generals were all stunned after hearing this.

—I wasn’t particularly surprised.

This had happened once before.

More than three thousand years ago, the Deep Sea General devised a plan, using a general who had just broken through a bottleneck as bait, and sure enough, the enemy was lured out.

But just as the Deep Sea General suddenly appeared, intending to kill the opponent.

That guy suddenly jumped into the primordial space and disappeared without a trace.

The ambush was a failure.

From then on, the ghost became even more cautious.

They are even more difficult to ambush and kill.

"This time, it's different."

The Admiral of the Deep Sea spoke in a booming voice: "I know that before each ambush, he will scout the surrounding environment, and if there is anything unusual, he will not continue to appear."

So I decided... to hide in the world of the decoy, and after he kills the decoy, I will appear and... kill him in one fell swoop!

Not only that, I also borrowed a mid-grade Origin Space artifact from an Apostle. Once he steps into its range, I will immediately seal off the surrounding space completely, preventing him from escaping to the lower levels of the Origin Space!

Upon hearing this, many generals felt their scalps tingle!
They went all out!
First, a mid-grade Origin Artifact is not so easy to borrow; the Deep Sea General must have paid a huge price.

Secondly, if a general who has just broken through a bottleneck is to be used as bait, then it is inevitable that a general will be sacrificed.

This is not a huge sacrifice.

The key question is... who would be willing?

Who would be willing to die prematurely in order to permanently annihilate that ghost?
"Look around you, who hasn't arrived?"

The Admiral's voice was icy.

Upon looking at it this way, the generals realized that... a general who had recently broken through to the next level was indeed missing.

—Although their scout squad has thousands of officers, as officers, their power is already immense, and their souls are incredibly strong. With just a thought, they can know who is not present.

—Ice and Ice.

This is the name of the absent general.

He is a genius.

A true genius.

He was much younger than them. The scout army would not be his final destination, but merely a stepping stone in his long life.

His future is sure to be brilliant.

But as the saying goes, geniuses all have tempers. Even in the military, Ice World was a "troublemaker." Although he wouldn't openly defy or disobey the Deep Sea General, that would be a violation of military discipline and would be punishable by the Deep Sea General.

But secretly, he didn't really take the Deep Sea Admiral seriously.

Or rather, he simply didn't take these "generals" who had little hope of making further breakthroughs seriously.

His real dream was to command a real army.

His experiences in the scout squad were merely one part of his growth.

and so……

"Before I summoned you, I sent his squad out on patrol. Judging by the time, they should be back soon."

The Deep Sea Admiral spoke.

"And the reason I summoned you here is very simple. As you all know, killing one's own kind is a huge taboo, so... if you don't stop me, we will be... accomplices."

The expressions of many generals immediately changed.

Although he showed no outward signs of it, he was inwardly cursing the general in front of him to death!

Clashes among their own kind, even on the battlefield!

If this gets out, it will cause a really big problem!

However, the Deep Sea General was forced by the threat of the ghost and the dissatisfaction he had accumulated over the long years with the icy world.

This led him to decide... to take the risk.

Not only must that ghost be killed completely, but the Ice World that outwardly obeys him but inwardly defies him must also be eliminated!
Not only that, he also brought in all the generals.

—If this gets out, it will be thoroughly investigated, and everyone will be in deep trouble, so…we have no choice but to keep it a secret!
Keeping secrets is taking responsibility for the lives of all of them!

So now they have two choices: report it immediately.

But now, they are in the dimensional space of the Deep Sea General, and they might be gone before the message can even be sent out.

Even if they report it afterward, it won't bring them any significant benefits.

Second, becoming an accomplice.

Considering that the Ice World was indeed arrogant and domineering, completely looking down on any of them...

Therefore, the choice to be made is self-evident.

Decades later.

Yu Chen continued to wander at the very bottom of the vast primordial space.

Forty-four times—that's the number of times he evolved.

"Just one step away from becoming a general."

In the division of the battlefield of desperate situations, those who can break through that bottleneck can be called "generals", and those who break through the forty-fifth evolution will be called "great generals".

He can be considered one of the strongest in this vast battlefield.

According to the memories of the countless worlds that Yu Chen devoured.

After breaking through forty-five times, you will definitely awaken an ability once. Regardless of whether you have awakened an ability before, you will awaken it again.

This was quite tempting for Yu Chen.

Unfortunately... although he had already broken through to the forty-fourth evolution by the time he devoured the fiftieth or so generals.

But facing the upcoming forty-fifth time, it feels like... it's a long way off.

How to describe that feeling? It wasn't so much a difference in "quantity," but rather a chasm of "quality."

If the power of the world's origin below the level of a general is one level, then the power of the world's origin above the level of a general is another level.

What Yu Chen lacks now is the world's origin power of a general.

Of course, he can also continue to rely on the accumulation of quantity to achieve a qualitative leap.

But that process was quite lengthy.

Even so, he had no other choice.

After all, he's a "general," so let's not even talk about whether he can win now.

Even if they could win, the general would still be in the enemy's main camp. Putting aside everything else, just the thousands of generals under the general's command would be enough to make Yu Chen hesitate.

What a feat it is to single-handedly storm the enemy camp and take the head of an army of ten thousand.

He doesn't have that ability yet.

So... let's take it slow...

Yu Chen took a deep breath and abandoned some unrealistic ideas.

Continue wandering and hunting.

Another hundred years passed.

Finally, one day, he found a lone patrol team—lone patrol teams had become rare since he started hunting frequently.

This aroused his suspicion.

Could it be a trap?
After all, he had already encountered this once before, and luckily he escaped quickly, otherwise he might have really perished.

So he didn't act rashly immediately, but instead wandered around the patrol team's vicinity, investigating any unusual situations in the surrounding area.

However, no matter how they investigated, they found nothing unusual.

Several years have passed, and the patrol team has moved far, far away from the location where he first discovered them.

This led him to conclude that there was no "tail" following him.

And so... the hunt!
In the next instant, the primordial space was torn apart with incredible brutality, and an invisible arrow of spacetime pierced through it instantly!

The target they were aiming at was the commander of the hunting party, an enormous blue and white figure!

His entire body was like a solidified block of ice, shaped like a giant snake, but with three incredibly large heads.

Dozens of hunters followed behind.

At this moment, for Yu Chen, hunters below the bottleneck level were no longer a threat at all.

So as long as this general is killed, the rest are just cannon fodder!

But at the very moment the arrow of time and space was shot...

The enormous ice serpent world suddenly seemed to sense something and abruptly dodged to the side!
In that incredibly dangerous and perilous moment, he dodged Yu Chen's attack!

Within the primordial space, Yu Chen let out a soft exclamation.

It seems somewhat unbelievable.

In his previous hunts, not a single general was able to dodge an arrow!
This guy... he's got something!

But... it didn't work!
The next moment, golden and silver light condensed in his hand as he drew his bow and arrow!

It runs straight through!

Like a death sentence!
Charge into the enemy! (End of Chapter)
