Check in to become stronger in Devouring Star.

Chapter 948 Roots
The Mountain Dweller left the Dark Land and headed towards the World of Jin. Qin Hao had already begun searching the Dark Land for the source of the destructive aura.

"I didn't expect the Dark Land to have become like this. It seems to have really fallen into chaos." Looking at the destroyed environment around him, Qin Hao couldn't help but sigh.

The last time I came to the Dark Land, although it was desolate, it wasn't this dilapidated. Moreover, in addition to the original aura of the Dark Land, an aura filled with destruction and frenzy was constantly growing.

This aura seemed to be constantly growing, spreading with each battle fought by the Beasts of the Realm. It's no wonder it attracted the attention of the Primal Universe's Will.

"It seems we still need to find You first. He should be aware of the changes in this Dark Land." Qin Hao made up his mind and his figure darted through the space, quickly moving towards the location of You, the world beast he had enslaved.

Although You's soul was affected by violent emotions, this was not a problem for Qin Hao.

"Die! Die!" The two world beasts clashed repeatedly, and with each collision, wounds appeared on their bodies.

His aura of destruction was almost at its peak, and he unleashed his strongest secret technique, Destruction, without holding back in any attack.

The clash of secret techniques intensified the aura of destruction. Even more strangely, although both were fifth-tier world beasts, they seemed to wield their strongest secret technique, Destruction, without any apparent burden.

Before the previous secret technique had completely dissipated, another powerful aura of destruction condensed and rapidly attacked the opponent.

From the clash of secret techniques to the physical battle, the whole process was like that of two mindless wild beasts, their eyes filled only with a deep desire to kill and the thought of devouring each other.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The battle raged on relentlessly, the roars echoing endlessly, utterly destroying the surrounding mountains and rivers. Space and time, too, were thrown into complete chaos by the destructive power of the strongest secret technique, Destruction.

The energy surged even more violently, as if influenced by the battle. Furthermore, as the two clashed, the surrounding black mist continuously merged into the bodies of the two Beast Realms, constantly stimulating their power and making them even stronger.

"What a bizarre method!" Qin Hao was also somewhat surprised as he watched You and another World Beast fighting.

Although I knew the black mist was strange, I didn't expect it to be even stranger than I imagined. It was like a virus, constantly spreading and infecting everything around it.

Furthermore, along the way, Qin Hao also felt that the mist was constantly trying to erode him, but he quickly extinguished it.

"It seems the situation is more complicated than I imagined, but the impact is limited and it's not unsolvable. I'm more interested in what kind of monster this will ultimately create."

Qin Hao was actually more interested in this situation continuing. A pseudo-seventh-tier world beast should possess some of the power of a world beast king, and might be even stronger.

In this vast ocean of space, he should be considered a formidable opponent.

However, if the Beast Tribulation occurs earlier than planned, my time in the Cosmic Sea will likely become limited.

As Qin Hao pondered, the battle gradually drew to a close. The destructive light emanating from You's body coalesced once more, unleashing itself in an instant.

The powerful force pierced through the skull of its opponent, and in an instant, Yu pounced on it, tearing and devouring it relentlessly.

As he continued to absorb energy, his aura gradually grew stronger. The dark light emanating from his body seemed to solidify.

What was originally just an aura of destruction gradually condensed, approaching the power of the very source of destruction. "If it weren't for that will interfering, this wouldn't be a bad way to stimulate evolution," Qin Hao thought to himself, as life energy began to gather in his hand.

A vibrant green light enveloped You in an instant, and his life energy began to be eroded, along with the will within the black mist surrounding his body.

It merely attacked those faint wisps of will, without directly causing any harm to You.

As this will gradually faded, the madness of You also subsided, and he seemed somewhat dazed.

"Where am I? Why am I here? I seem to have become incredibly powerful?"

In a daze, Qin Hao appeared directly in front of him.

"Owner!"

Upon seeing Qin Hao, You spoke respectfully, his tone no longer showing the impatience of his earlier contemplation.

The confusion in his mind instantly cleared up. Although he didn't know what had happened, he was certain that his master was responsible for waking him from that daze.

"Immediately investigate the anomalies in the dark place and find the source of all these changes!"

Qin Hao gave the order directly. This dimly lit place was the lair of the Realm Beasts, and they knew the location where the changes had occurred even better. Even though most of the Realm Beasts were currently in a frenzy, they could still find the place where the changes had begun.

"Yes, Master!"

You quickly agreed and began to observe the changes in the surrounding Beasts. The connection between Beasts was very clear; even in their frenzied state, this link remained.

Following this thread of connection, You continued searching for the source of the anomaly. As for the attention from the other world beasts, You paid no heed.

Now, all he has to do is complete his master's task.

"Master, we've found it!" A dozen minutes later, You Gongjing came to Qin Hao's side and said.

"Lead the way immediately!" Qin Hao said, and in a flash, he appeared directly on You's back.

You felt Qin Hao sitting on your back, and you quickly accelerated, heading towards the depths of the dark place.

The further they went, the thicker the black mist became. Every now and then, realm beasts would appear, each one frantic, searching for any living creature that appeared before attacking it directly.

As Qin Hao sensed the surrounding aura, his expression became much more solemn. This mist was far more powerful than he had imagined, its aura even surpassing that of an ordinary Eternal True God.

A powerful force of destruction, mixed with various violent wills. If one's strength, temperament, and will are insufficient, one will lose their reason the moment they enter this place and become a tool for slaughter.

The surrounding Beasts are the best example; they were born from destruction, yet they are manipulated by this very will of destruction.
