I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

Pale blue energy dust hovered above the forest, occasionally coalescing into tiny bands of light, which were then swallowed whole by the giant beasts in the mountains.

The structure of the endless world is heavier and more massive than that of Earth.

The ordinary plants here can withstand 2.6 times the gravity, and the energy accumulated in the soil is close to that of low-grade minerals on Earth.

Shen Tian grabbed a handful of black soil, and a dozen or so blue crystals quickly separated from his palm.

The spiritual energy continued to penetrate deeper underground.

Hundreds of meters below, the deep blue mineral layer extends into the distance along the earth's veins, with a width of more than thirty kilometers.

The ore brought back by the war golems was only the outermost fragment; the purity of the energy inside was still increasing.

This single mineral belt is enough for Blue Star to manufacture a large amount of equipment.

Shen Tian continued to probe downwards, and soon a stronger reaction to the laws of nature appeared deep within the ore layer. Some of the ore, after accumulating over a long period of time, had begun to automatically repel the surrounding rock layers, forming natural cavities underground.

The deep blue crystals at the very center are close to eighth-order materials.

If handed over to the Heavenly Crafts Bureau, this place can continuously produce high-level weapons and war puppets.

The cultivation resources that Blue Star lacks most grow in large quantities underground in the wasteland, and there are no signs of mining yet.

Shen Tian implanted a spiritual imprint around the perimeter of the mine, marking the area as part of the first phase of the resource zone.

If the base can be held, this mining area can soon be transformed into the overall combat power of the human race.

Shen Tian took a step forward, and his figure appeared hundreds of kilometers away.

After crossing the black grassland, large amounts of purplish-red rocks began to appear on the ground, with extremely hot golden liquid flowing from the crevices.

Several strange beasts, each over a hundred meters long, lay on the edge of the lava, most of them at the fourth or fifth level of life.

They are just the most ordinary creatures here.

The beast king, powerful enough to destroy a small city on Earth, can only roam the edges of the territories of higher-level life forms in this desolate region.

Boom!

Suddenly, the mountain wall ahead exploded open, and a giant, armored beast nearly a thousand meters long rushed out.

It has three black horns on its head and layers of armor plates on its back. Every time it lands, the surrounding area trembles.

Late stage of the seventh rank.

The armored behemoth clearly regarded Shen Tian as prey that had intruded into its territory, and opened its mouth to spew out a yellowish-brown breath.

The surrounding gravity surged, and large swathes of purplish-red rock were crushed into powder.

Shen Tian raised his right hand and pointed forward.

A crimson-gold blade of light descended from the giant beast's head, and the thick armor plates couldn't even withstand it for half a second before the massive body split in two.

The two halves of the body crashed into the mountainside, and the falling debris quickly cut off the nearby lava flow.

He landed beside the corpse, his mental energy sweeping over the bones, flesh, and the flow of the power of heaven and earth within the body.

This behemoth lacked the abyssal aura, and its life structure differed somewhat from that of Earth; it was a native creature naturally nurtured by the endless world.

Its armor plates can withstand most sixth-order attacks, and the black horn on its head stores complete fragments of the law of gravity.

It has not yet developed a complete set of laws and is still within the scope of the seventh order.

Once a stable hunting ground is established, these exotic beasts themselves become a resource.

Shen Tian stored the corpse in the Hongmeng Origin Realm and continued to explore outwards.

Within a 100,000-kilometer radius, the highest level of life is the mid-stage of the eighth rank.

The western mountains are teeming with strange beasts, while the eastern plains are relatively safe, and there are three large mineral veins underground.

Further away is beyond the range of precise perception; we can only explore it slowly after the base is established.

This is enough for the human race to gain a foothold in the first place.

Shen Tian left spatial coordinates on the eastern plain and transmitted the probe data back to Earth.

At the same time, all twelve elevator platforms at the Longjing Expeditionary Base were activated.

The modular city walls manufactured by the Tiangong Division rise from underground, each section reaching a height of 100 meters, and are equipped with energy furnaces and war golem control towers.

The transport ships landed one after another, and engineers delivered fortress components, medical bays, and enough energy supplies to sustain them for 180 days into the ships.

The First Expeditionary Force has completed its assembly.

Ten thousand martial artists of the fifth rank or above from various war zones formed a square formation, while three thousand engineers, medical and research personnel were in the rear.

The four complete legions will not enter at the same time. The first batch will only be responsible for controlling the area around the boundary gate and establishing a forward base.

The Dragon Kingdom's Broken Army Legion was positioned at the forefront, with troops from the Northern Cold War Zone guarding the flanks, while warriors from the Western Federation were responsible for transporting the fleet.

Outside the base, a large number of martial artists who were not included in the first batch of tests are still waiting for testing.

The three divine interventions granted them the qualifications, but the expeditions did not send all the people away at once.

The Second Army Corps will only proceed once the landing point, food supplies, energy resources, and evacuation routes are all secured.

The expeditionary force had no superfluous slogans.

A newly made black military flag was fixed to the side of the transport ship.

The flag only features the outline of a blue star and a crimson gold sword, signifying where this legion came from and who opened the passage for them.

Lin Qingyi stood in the first row, her palm pressing down on the hilt of her knife.

Zhao Gang, A Fei, and Lei Gui all donned the latest crossover battle armor.

Afei stared at the red pass marker on his mask for a long time until Reggae tapped his helmet, at which point he closed the interface.

"Have you seen enough?"

"Don't wander around once you're inside. Any random beast in this endless world could be two levels higher than you."

"Isn't there still Boss Shen?"

Lin Qingyi turned around and glanced at him.

Ah Fei immediately shut up and re-examined the weapon.

The martial artists from different countries did not speak; all eyes were fixed on the center of the base.

There was originally just an open space there, but suddenly the space rippled, and Shen Tian walked out from the zero coordinate.

The entire base fell silent instantly.

Shen Tian threw half of the armored behemoth's black horn onto the testing table.

When the ground is in a dark corner, the gravity within a range of tens of meters increases.

"The passage is stable, and no abyssal power has been detected around the landing point."

He projected a map of the wasteland above everyone; the plains to the east were circled in green, while the mountains to the west were all marked in red.

"The first phase involves controlling only the green zone; a temporary base must be established within three days. Without orders, no one is permitted to cross the western perimeter."

Lu Changfeng stood at the front of the legion.

"The First Expeditionary Force is ready."

Shen Tian turned and walked toward the zero coordinate.

"Set off."

A silver passageway opened in the center of the base.

Shen Tian walked at the front, followed closely by Lin Qingyi and the first combat formation.

After passing through the zero coordinate, the team made a brief stop at the outer layer of the Primordial Origin Realm before entering the twelve-meter-high Expedition Gate.

The heavy force of the impact caused the feet of the first row of martial artists to sink simultaneously.

No one stopped.

The gravity modules inside the armor lit up one by one, and the previously sluggish movements quickly returned to normal.

Lin Qingyi was the first to leave the passage, her combat boots sinking into the black mud. Her long sword was immediately drawn, its blade pressing down on the grass blades blowing in her face.

Ah Fei landed right after him, looked up and saw those mountain peaks piercing the clouds, and the joke he had prepared got stuck in his throat.
