  “Argh! Come over here and kill the human now!” The creature bellowed.

  Despite Qin Feng’s clear dominance, this creature from the Dragon Tribe had refused to comply and stared at Qin Feng unbendingly.

  Its comrades clearly heard its cry and looked over in Qin Feng’s direction. The outcome of the encounter was not how they would have expected.

  “Retreat first!” One of them shouted and fled decisively.

  The others ran with him and covered more than one hundred meters within seconds. The Shade did not move as quickly and returned to the machine after losing track of the Dragon Tribe.

  This was when the Dragon Tribe creatures turned back and surrounded Qin Feng.

  “Roar!”


  They did not say anything and assaulted Qin Feng simultaneously. They did not seem to care about the one held hostage by Qin Feng.

  Qin Feng sneered and let go of the defeated creature. He prepared his stance to brace for the incoming attacks.

  Five creatures came in all directions to completely shut down Qin Feng.

  “Asteroid Assimilation! Absorb!”


  Qin Feng triggered his internal force and generated a great pulling field around him. The five assaulters were being involuntarily dragged toward Qin Feng. They were being pulled off course by the abrupt force and their five-man formation was no longer intact.

  Qin Feng pumped his internal force and leashed out a force equivalent to that of a B-tier aptitude user.

  He slid forward and approached one of the creatures. Then he hit the target with his elbow.

  Dong!

  Qin Feng’s elbow hit right at the creature’s chest.

  Crack!

  Following the bone-shattering sound, the creature spewed blood and flew out.

  Qin Feng maneuvered his force field and pulled in another dragon creature near him.

  Boom!

  Qin Feng’s heavy punch landed right on its face. The creature was sent back flying with most of its sharp fangs detached from its mouth.

  The same happened to the rest of them. Qin Feng wasted little time and energy to put down all five assaulters.

  They were just a bunch of toothless dragons!

  The creatures could hardly accept the fact that they were being beaten so easily by a single human.

  Roar!

  Almost instantaneously, they transformed into a giant lizard and roared exasperatedly.

  This was obviously their true form.

  Qin Feng was shocked to witness the transfiguration.

  ‘So these are actually C-tier beast kings? Is this not an intelligent species but rather a mutated creature that has taken the human form?!’


  At the same time, Qin Feng did not waste time and summoned his Verdant Emperor Saber.

  “Sword Glare!” Qin Feng’s blade instantly caught fire. Any form of defense was futile in the face of this God Weapon.

  Nonetheless, Qin Feng was facing five ferocious dragons at the moment. Their true form was at least three levels tall. The surrounding ruins were further destroyed as their bodies became incredibly huge.

  The human form had seemingly suppressed their true power. They now looked and felt completely different than before.

  Qin Feng’s expression turned serious. Those five were all beast kings. Even Qin Feng would need to deal with this carefully.

  “Fire Wall!”


  All of a sudden, a flare burst out around Qin Feng.

  The five beast kings were burned by the fire but that only made them more aggressive. They wished to tear Qin Feng into pieces.

  However, Qin Feng had cunningly hidden within the Fire Wall. The bright burning flame made it difficult for the creatures to locate Qin Feng.

  “Roar!!!” The five beast kings growled helplessly.

  “Seal!”


  Qin Feng used his consciousness to activate the fire trap. Numerous fire dragons emerged from the wall and drowned the weird-looking dragon creatures in a sea of fire.

  The struggling and groaning of the dragons could be heard afar. But gradually, the noise died down into an eerie silence.

  “Disperse!”


  Qin Feng held out his hand and the flame danced back into his palm and disappeared. There were only five charred corpses left at the place where the wall was initially set.

  The five dragon creatures could not be more dead.

  Under the control of his mind, one after another fist-size power core burst out from the dragon’s chest and flew to his hand.

  This unique creature might not have as many precious materials as other dragon or wyvern species but their power core was pretty compact.

  After that, Qin Feng paced slowly toward the only dragon-borne alive—The one who got beaten the hell out by him earlier.

  The dragon-borne was terrified when it saw Qin Feng approach him.

  In its entire life, the human race had always been viewed as a pathetically weak species. The dragon-borne had never thought that one day he would be afraid of a human.

  Qin Feng used telekinesis to deliver his question once again. “Now, I think you will be more than willing to answer my question?”


  “Yes! Yes! What’s the question again?” The dragon-borne apparently did not pay attention to Qin Feng’s question earlier.

  Qin Feng had to repeat his question but this time he did it in an even colder tone.

  The dragon-borne answered quickly, “Human is a very mysterious species among the dimensions. Their genes allow them to deliver offspring with most of the intelligent species. Some species may be very powerful but can’t reproduce properly. So, they would extract the human genome or their talent to merge with their own. For instance, we, the Dragon Tribe, are created in such a manner. But the mixed-blood usually has the same fertility problem as their forefather. So pure-blood humans are our most precious samples.”


  Qin Feng’s face was stone cold. He had never heard of such nonsense in his past life.

  But he was just a commoner back then. His biggest achievement was surviving the wild and attaining A-tier with his own effort. It was never his privilege to enjoy the type of resources and opportunities that he had in this life as a prodigy.

  He might not be as powerful as he was in his past life at the moment but this new privilege had allowed him to learn more about different dimensions at a much younger age.

  “You are saying that dimension inhabited by a human is usually the target by most other tribes or species? What usually happens to this dimension then? Are they all your slaves in the end? Or are they just a source of DNA material that you can kill at will?” Qin Feng’s voice became sterner and sterner.

  Qin Feng had just been reborn for one year. He now remembered that as time passed on in his previous life, more and more intelligent species arrived on Earth and enslaved the humans. They usually kept the female and killed most of the male.

  This realization enraged Qin Feng.

  “How is that possible? The human species, as I said, is rather mysterious. Some are very weak but there are also those being protected by guardians. We usually won’t be able to touch the latter.”


  Other species usually had equivalent power between individuals when they grew up. For instance, all Grans were C-tier at adulthood. They could only get stronger by evolving into general, king, or emperor.

  But humans were different. They could grow indefinitely into A or even S-tier.

  Then again, before a human had been awakened, they were extremely fragile. Even the lowest tier mutated creature could kill a normal human with ease.

  This was in fact peculiar in the eyes of other species.

  “Guardian?” Qin Feng mumbled. He suddenly thought of Long Ting and other S-tier aptitude users in the Human Alliance.
