Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

Liu Nian looked at this cunning fellow, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "So, what is your purpose in seeking me out?"

"Heh, you probably don't realize your own worth! Information about anomalies like you is incredibly valuable! Once I confirm that, I can obtain a reward no less than that of the Queen of the Abe Bees!!"

After saying that, the guy stopped talking to Liu Nian and charged at him!

Liu Nian had no choice but to fight back. Although the adjutant, who was possessed by the Great Devourer, had reached level 299, he was still no match for Liu Nian!

The other side knew this too, so his goal wasn't to win!

His only goal was to document the battle!

Liu Nian's expression was very unpleasant... He knew what the other party was planning, but there was nothing he could do about it.

He couldn't just let this guy exist in this region, otherwise, if the guy continued to develop his influence in this region, he would eventually discover the pyramid and use it to get to his region.

Therefore, they must be killed!

But killing him... would play right into their hands...

This is an open conspiracy, and there's no way to break it.

So Liu Nian had no choice but to grit his teeth and try not to reveal any of his skills, relying on his fists to vent his anger and smash the possessed insectoid lieutenant to pieces!

[Killed a level 299 insectoid player.]

[Little Tuantuan's experience points: +8920001.]

The insectoid lieutenant's body began to disintegrate, his flesh melting away piece by piece, and dark purple energy gushed out from the cracks, turning into wisps of mist and dissipating.

When the last piece of carapace turned to ashes, a circular vortex of dark purple energy appeared on the ground.

Liu Nian didn't recognize the object, so he had Arachne examine it.

Arachne studied it for a long time and said, "This is a dimensional wormhole. Dimensional worms are very strange creatures, somewhat similar to teleportation arrays, but the principle is completely different. Master can treat it as a kind of living World Tree."

"You mean this kind of insect connects all the heavens and worlds like a boundary tree?"

"It's not that strong, but the principle is similar, or... it's also possible that this kind of insect is a type of wood-boring worm that infests the world's trees?"

Liu Nian frowned... It's not impossible.

Now a problem is facing him.

Is he going to destroy the door, or go through it to see what's on the other side?

No! We absolutely cannot go! Considering the cunning of this insect king, this door was deliberately left by the other party; it must be a trap!

The other party must have made arrangements and was just waiting for him to take the bait!

You know, that guy knows he might be a "Transcendent"!

The other party said this information is extremely valuable, worth more than Mia'er... So who will he sell the information to?

The answer is about to come out!

So Liu Nian didn't hesitate to blast the dimensional portal to pieces!

There can be no hesitation whatsoever. If we delay even a moment, who knows what might rush through this dimensional portal!

As for the Fogborn... Liu Nian didn't find them at all from beginning to end, but the more he did, the more uneasy he felt.

He is not afraid of enemies in the open; enemies hidden in the shadows are the real danger!

Thinking of this, Liu Nian immediately recalled all his pets and returned to the Reincarnation Ship.

Right now, there is no safer place than here!

He must rely on the Reincarnation to sever his own tracks!

------

Hesdra Nest City, a Tier 4 capital city of the Lepidoptera.

Gorgon lay sprawled on the platform, his twelve eyes closed, dark golden flames flickering beneath his eyelids. His consciousness had just withdrawn from his adjutant's body; the sensation of being shattered by each punch still lingered in his nerve endings.

It hurt. But mostly it was exhilarating.

He opened his eyes.

Twelve dark golden pupils lit up simultaneously, burning with dark purple flames.

"You're right," Gorgon said, his voice low and deep, like muffled thunder from the depths of the earth. "There is indeed an anomaly in that region!"

Gorgon raised a scythe and slashed it through the air. Dark purple arcs of electricity shot from the scythe, leaving a charred trail in the air. A blurry image emerged from the arc—a silver-gray scaled murloc, smashing his lieutenant to pieces with each punch, shattering his wormhole with each punch.

"A guy disguised as a merman!" Gorgon's voice held a hint of amusement. "I bet he was the one who disguised that centaur last time too!"

A wisp of grayish-white mist appeared, and a blurry human figure loomed in and out: "What do you intend to do?"

"It's a pity he didn't come along... If we could have captured him and handed him over... Oh well, this intelligence itself is quite valuable. Let the big shots worry about this kind of enemy!"

Room 112 of the Reincarnation Ship.

Liu Nian leaned against the cold metal wall, closed his eyes, and let out a long breath.

Little Tuantuan poked its head out of his pocket, its six antennae swaying and making soft "puwaibi" sounds, as if asking him what was wrong.

"It's nothing," Liu Nian said, patting its head. "You're thinking about something."

The little creature's antennae wrapped around his finger and rubbed against it.

Liu Nian opened his eyes and looked around.

He had previously placed a storage box here, filled with a lot of things, just to test if this place was safe. Now it seems that everything inside is still there.

This empty room is now safer to him than anywhere else.

The Reincarnation Ship roams the river of time, traversing countless realms, and no one can locate it. Not the five transcendent beings, not the Gorgon Insect King, and not even the level 999 angel.

He needs to move his main body here.

Ottaway is not safe.

That was the territory of the five transcendent beings, and his every move was under their watchful eyes.

He didn't care before, but now—a level 999 angel is searching for him all over the world, a level 499 insect king has his eye on him, and there might also be those Mistborn hiding in the shadows and the Eternal Dark Council behind them, or even the five transcendent beings...

Liu started moving, taking his body and all his valuables to the Reincarnation Ship.

He made several trips before finally finishing up, and then returned to the Otavian Dragon Guild headquarters.

Wang Mian was sitting at a long table organizing intelligence, his notebook flipping through several pages, the quill scratching on the parchment. Hearing footsteps, he looked up and saw Liu Nian walk in, and paused for a moment.

"Aren't you in the competition area?" He put down his pen, looked Liu Nian over carefully, and frowned. "What's wrong? You don't look too good."

"It's nothing." Liu Nian walked to the long table, sat down, picked up the water glass on the table, and took a sip. "Wang Mian, I need everyone to help me with a few things."

Wang Mian immediately put down the note in his hand and said seriously, "Speak."
