Chapter 125 The Beginning of the Planet King

Then, following the cubs' guidance, Lu Qingfeng leaped and landed lightly on Xingyin's broad back.

The dark silver scales were cold and hard. Although it wasn't very comfortable to sit on, it was good enough to have a means of transportation!

Just after Lao Lu sat down, Xing Yin let out a low growl, as if to make sure he was settled, and then took heavy steps, running towards the north valley.

The other cubs followed closely behind, the earth rumbling beneath their feet. Another unlucky fellow was about to suffer! As the group raced forward, the outline of the valley soon came into view. On either side ahead were towering, steep cliffs reaching into the clouds, and the valley floor was covered with lush vegetation, with a pale purple energy mist flowing through it.

Even before you've fully entered, you can hear the roars of beasts coming from the valley.

"It's just ahead!" Xingyin's thoughts transmitted excitedly. "Those Thunder Rhinos like to gather near the energy spring in the center of the valley; their meat is tender and full of energy!"

Sure enough, after passing through a dense forest, the view suddenly opened up before us.

In the center of a relatively open depression, there is a shallow pool of water several tens of meters in diameter, and around the pool, a dozen large creatures are wandering and drinking.

These are Thunder Rhinoceros meat, known for its delicious flavor and numbing sensation.

They are generally over ten meters long, covered with a thick, bluish-gray skin with natural purple patterns, and occasionally tiny arcs of electricity jump between the patterns.

A thick, single horn atop its head is crackling with blue lightning, hence the name Thunder.

However, when the five calves appeared at the entrance of the valley like moving mountains, the Thunder Rhinos were instantly thrown into panic.

"Moo—!"

Terrified screams rose and fell.

Faced with predators who had an absolute advantage in both life level and size, the Thunder Rhinoceros herd had no intention of resisting; their survival instinct drove them to turn and flee.

The frantic oxen trampled the ground, splashing mud and stones as they fled desperately toward the other side of the valley.

Occasionally, a few exceptionally robust male thunder rhinoceroses, seemingly more ferocious in temperament, would turn back unwillingly during their escape, attempting to launch a deterrent attack on the pursuing calves.

However, such resistance appears futile in the face of true apex predators.

[Hmph, you dare glare at us!]

Star Core's intent was filled with disdain, and his massive body was even more so. Facing these rhinos that dared to resist, he crushed them with a speed that was beyond his capabilities!

Faced with a thunder rhinoceros that tried to butt it with its horn, it simply raised its forelimbs, and yesterday its giant paw slammed down with tremendous force!

"boom!"

With a muffled thud, the plump and robust Thunder Rhinoceros was struck as if by a meteorite, its entire upper body almost slammed into the ground, the sound of bones shattering clearly audible, and the lightning on its horn instantly extinguished.

He died before he could even utter a scream.

On the other side, a blast of extremely cold air spread out in a ring around one of the cubs.

The two Thunder Rhinos that tried to flank the enemy were grazed by the freezing air, their legs instantly covered with thick frost, their movements became stiff and sluggish, and then they were beheaded in a thunderous motion.

Lei Shan went even further, summoning a purple-gold ball of light that continuously shot out thin chains of lightning, accurately hitting the running bulls one by one.

The lightning chains did not kill them directly, but instead triggered a chaotic outburst of lightning-attribute energy within them.

The bull reared up in agony, its body crackling with electricity, before collapsing to the ground, convulsing and lifeless.

The remaining two cubs primarily took on the task of driving and intercepting the rhinoceroses. Their massive bodies acted like moving walls, easily forcing the rhinoceroses that were trying to scatter and escape back to their main escape route.

The entire hunting process was highly efficient and swift, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep—no, not just like, it was exactly like a tiger entering a flock of sheep!

For these young cosmic behemoths, hunting down a herd of Thunder Rhinoceroses is a piece of cake.

Working in perfect harmony, they quickly dispersed or killed most of the rhinoceroses, leaving only a few surviving ones for various reasons.

【Qingfeng, this one is for you! This bull is perfect as your first prey!】 Xingyin's mind locked onto a Thunder Rhinoceros with a broken front leg.

This rhinoceros was of medium size for its kind, about ten meters long. Its eyes were filled with fear, blood was gushing from its severed leg, and it was futilely spitting out weak sparks of electricity.

The other cubs also stopped what they were doing and gathered around, their huge eyes looking at Lu Qingfeng with curiosity, their mental networks filled with encouragement and expectation:

Go for it! Don't be afraid, it's too weak to fight back!

[Aim at the neck or heart, and it'll solve the problem instantly!]

[Try it! The heart of the Thunder Rhino is the best part; it has the most concentrated energy!]

Lu Qingfeng jumped off Xingyin's back and landed on the soft, damp mud.

Although the gravity and environmental pressure of this planet are indeed powerful, Lu is not powerless! He can easily defeat this rhinoceros.

He walked towards the trapped Thunder Rhinoceros, carefully building up his strength with each step to prevent failing to kill it in one go. By the time he reached it, he was at his peak condition!

The Thunder Rhino seemed to sense the dangerous aura emanating from the creature before it. It let out a low, warning roar, and the lightning on its horn flashed again as it made a final struggle.

Lu Qingfeng did not give it a chance.

With his right fist clenched and blood flowing freely, he didn't use any fancy moves, but simply concentrated his power into a single point and then punched Niu Niu in his vital spot.

"Pfft!"

A dull thud resounded.

Lu Qingfeng's fist easily broke through Niu Niu's solid defense, accurately shattering the bones beneath and destroying its most important nerve cells.

The Thunder Rhinoceros's massive body stiffened abruptly, the last glimmer of light in its eyes quickly dimmed, the lightning on its horn went out completely, and it let out a short, weak wail. Its massive body swayed and then crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

【Well done!】Star Silver’s thoughts were filled with admiration.

[Clean and efficient! The attack was very precise!] Akagi also responded with a positive response.

[It seems your combat instincts aren't entirely hopeless!] Frostshadow's thoughts seemed to carry a hint of "you're teachable," and also a touch of encouragement:

Eat up! You must be starving!

Lu Qingfeng shook off the bloodstains and electrical sparks from his hands and looked at the Thunder Rhino lying on the ground.

He could feel the [Feast] ability resonating within him with a yearning, an instinctive craving for high-quality energy and life essence. So what was hesitating for? Time to feast!

"The feast begins!"

A spatial fluctuation emerged in front of him, rapidly expanding into an invisible vortex.

The fallen Thunder Rhinoceros carcass trembled slightly under the suction force, as if being torn apart by an invisible giant maw. In just a few seconds, the ten-meter-long beast was completely sucked into the vortex and disappeared.

The vast and pure energy, mixed with the life essence of the Thunder Rhinoceros, surged into Lu Qingfeng's body like a torrent.

The Qi and Blood Furnace emitted a joyful roar, rapidly absorbing this pure life energy and transforming it into every cell of the body.
