The endless black water pit was densely packed with black, and not a single blade of grass grew there. There was only a single color in it.

From time to time, large birds would turn around in the sky, unwilling to go deep into the sky above the black water pit. This was the deterrence that the remnants of war weapon still had after it was destroyed.

If one entered the black water pit alone, it would be like entering a world made of black. Even if nothing happened, fear would still grow in them.

Chen Yiming led the golden ape, the elk, and the white cat to the nearest location with abnormal spatial fluctuations. They were more than 1,000 kilometers away from the edge of the black water pit.

“Tsk tsk tsk… It’s been a long time since any prey has taken the initiative to come knocking on my door.”

Laughter sounded from under a puddle of water.

The water in the puddle came from the rain, but under the reflection of the black substance, it looked as dark as ink. Without going down personally, one would not know the depth of the puddle.

There were three dark creatures hiding under the puddle.

However, there was not a single drop of water around them. Instead, it was a relatively large space that was hundreds of meters in length, width and height. On the ground in the middle of the space, there were a few black clubs.

“One, two, three, four.”

One of the dark creatures had a bone mask on its face and was covered in black fur. It counted the number of the new arrivals and said, “They are indeed coming in our direction, but it’s three against four. If we take the initiative to attack, it’s easy for some of them to escape.”

At this moment, an excited voice sounded from the side.

“This is too simple. When they come in, we can control the black club to launch a sneak attack and kill one of them first. Won’t it be three against three then? We also won’t have to worry about the information being leaked.”

“Those three stupid dragons really think that the power of the treasure tree is invincible. Little did they know that as long as it was willing to pay the price, the tentacles of the black tide could reach any location in the universe.”

“Just you wait. When darkness descends on this world again, we’ll eat those three stupid dragons first.”

The terrifying creatures that had transformed into dark creatures had a special physique like the body of darkness. The negative energy that was everywhere in the world was the source of their energy, and it was almost inexhaustible.

In battle, this type of physique could also absorb the fear, panic, nervousness, and so on that were born from facing the dark creatures. It could also increase one’s fighting spirit.

Therefore, in a battle of the same level, there were few who were a match for them. In a one-on-one battle, they were confident that their prey would not have a chance to escape.

Soon, as Chen Yiming’s team got closer and closer, the puddle returned to its calm state. It was as if it was a normal place where water had gathered.

…

The sky was clear and the clouds were thin.

The plate-shaped world seemed to have become more lively after the thousands of dark creatures were killed not long ago.

This was the result of the world’s will and the will of the living beings being cleansed after defeating the invading enemies that were at the level of taking over their world.

However, there were still hidden dangers.

Chen Yiming’s team arrived near the puddle where the abnormal spatial fluctuations were.

“It’s similar to the first blockade. A layer of invisible membrane with the space attribute is dividing the puddle into two.”

Under the influence of his super perception, the barrier was completely exposed to Chen Yiming.

He saw a square space under the puddle. Due to the fact that it was relatively close by, three black shadows could be vaguely seen, which meant that three dark creatures were hiding there.

Chen Yiming roughly explained the situation to the golden ape, elk, and white cat.

When the golden ape heard this, the muscles in its arms bulged as it took an excited step forward. “I’ll take the lead. Let’s break through that invisible barrier first.”

It was three against three, and each of them had been assigned a dark creature as their opponent. The golden ape, who was good at fighting head-on, realized that this was a good opportunity for it to perform.

The elk glanced at the golden ape as if it was looking at a fool.

Unlike the golden ape, it had restrained the faint blue light on its body.

The white cat was similar to the elk. It even meowed, making its body appear more weak and delicate so that it would more likely be ignored or belittled.

“With the personality and intelligence of the elk and the white cat, they won’t make any mistakes easily. On the other hand, the golden ape clearly has a violent fighting style. It’s fine when facing a single enemy of the same level, but…”

Chen Yiming took in the behavior of the three terrifying creatures around him.

If the golden ape fought the elk and the white cat separately, there was a high chance that the golden ape would be the strongest in terms of direct combat strength. The elk specialized in long-range continuous combat, while the white cat specialized in sudden attacks.

“It seems that I can’t let the golden ape carry out the orders alone. There’s actually no need for them to be involved in a real battle. Let’s follow the original plan and let the white cat and the golden ape move together.”

The golden ape was excitedly waiting for Chen Yiming to give the order. Little did it know that in the future, it would have to follow the white cat’s orders.

Such a position of purely being a fighter was often not indispensable, unless one could become stronger and stronger one day and further evolve to the level of a god.

Soon, Chen Yiming said calmly, “Let’s end this quickly. I’ll break the invisible barrier, and leave the three dark creatures inside to you.”

With that, he controlled the space anchor in his body and threw it in the direction of the puddle.

The space anchor could also transform into a powerful weapon when facing certain things that had the space attribute, such as barriers, space-travel passages, and so on.

“Crack, crack, crack…”

In the blink of an eye, the space anchor reached the bottom of the puddle and pierced through the barrier dozens of times. The invisible membrane exploded, revealing the three dark creatures behind.

“What!”

Facing this sudden change, the three dark creatures were all shocked.

The barrier forming the space under the puddle that they were hiding was essentially the same as the invisible membrane released by the first blockade when the black tide sealed off a world.

The space attribute contained in it could transfer away a large amount of the damage it received.

In addition, this invisible membrane was made of a tough material and had the ability to automatically repair itself. Unless one had the power of the world, the chances of breaking out of a sealed world were slim.

For example, the space-manipulation ability of one of the terrifying creatures, the huge eye, could temporarily distort space and create a short-range space-travel passage.

If it wanted to distort any part of this invisible membrane, the power of distortion would be spread over a large area, and it would be equivalent to fighting against the power of the entire blockade.

Therefore, even terrifying creatures with spatial abilities could not easily break through the seal of this invisible membrane.

“Kill!”

The golden ape’s suppressed desire to fight had long been aroused. It was the first to leap out and gather its essence, energy, and spirit into its fist to attack the dark creature with the bone mask.

“Buzz!”

The faint blue light on the elk’s body suddenly became so strong that it turned the surrounding area into a lightning domain filled with mist. As the mist filled up the area, there was no blind spot in the lightning domain.

Then, the elk’s figure fused into the lightning domain. Compared to the golden ape, it was actually the first to arrive. In the blink of an eye, it had arrived in front of one of the dark creatures.

“Roar!”

The white cat let out a roar that did not match its appearance. The clouds in the sky shattered and dispersed, and a small portion of the plate-shaped world shook.

In the next moment, a ferocious-looking white tiger suddenly leaped out and pounced at one of the dark creatures. Its claws flickered with white light, and claw marks appeared along the way.

Clearly, the sharp claws that were flickering with white light were at the top level of attack power below the level of the power of the world. Compared to the golden ape and the elk, the strength of its sudden attack was very obvious.

“Rumble…”

A battle broke out. The terrifying creatures from the plate-shaped world faced the dark creatures. It was three against three, and the numbers were completely equal on both sides.

At the same time, the commotion caused quickly alarmed the entire plate-like world.

…

“A battle is happening in the direction of the black water pit.”

A terrifying creature walked out of its territory and looked over in that direction through the countless obstacles.

The black water pit had always been a place that many creatures were watching. However, the dark creatures relied on the external forces from the black tide to interfere with what they could see. They knew that it was located in a certain area, but they could not determine its exact location.

The power of the treasure tree would not be used easily. They would prioritize its growth and transformation. The three dragon gods would naturally spend their time on carrying out the treasure tree’s orders.

The remaining dark creatures were only small fries. A small amount of surveillance was tolerated.

As long as they completed the plan to fuse the five worlds, the treasure tree would grow further. The small number of remaining dark creatures would not be able to cause any trouble.

“So it’s the person from the central galaxy’s Peacekeeping Alliance. Have they started to deal with the tentacles left behind by the black tide in this world?”

Soon, the news spread.

Many of the terrifying creatures who were still waiting for an opportunity were extremely envious of the golden ape, the elk, and the white cat. It had only been a short while, but they had already gained a certain level of trust from the visitor.

However, even though they were envious, they still had the patience to wait for the right opportunity. After all, the forces left behind by the black tide in the galaxy was mainly concentrated in the other four worlds.

The progress they had made so far might not even be 1%. There were still many chances to join, make a contribution, and attract attention. Even if they joined early, they might not be the one to have the last laugh.

In the circular valley where the core of the world was located, at this moment, the two dragon gods had already returned to the side of the treasure tree. The three dragon gods were also alarmed by the commotion from the battle in the black water pit.

“The location where the remaining dark creatures are hiding was actually discovered so easily.”

The oldest dragon god used the power of the world to project its gaze above the black water pit. After a long time, it spoke slowly.

This outcome was both shocking and expected. Chen Yiming had already indicated that he had arrived to help the world that had been invaded by the black tide because he had discovered signs of the black tide in the galaxy.

His background was vaguely on the same level as the black tide. If he took a lot of time to deal with the remaining dark creatures in the world, how could the Dragon God not be suspicious?

But now, Chen Yiming was leading the three terrifying creatures to quickly clean up the hidden dangers in the black water pit. The dark creatures had nowhere to hide.

Seeing this, most of the suspicion in the dragon gods’ hearts dissipated. The only thing left was that they were worried that Chen Yiming would use his power to snatch the treasure tree after resolving the problem of the black tide.

In reality, this suspicion was correct. The female spirit had secretly revealed the existence of the treasure tree to Chen Yiming.

“Big Brother, it looks like the plan to fuse the five worlds will go more smoothly than we thought because of the help from this powerful person.”

The other two dragon gods became more optimistic. They had almost completely forgotten the embarrassment of having their bodies destroyed by someone who was only close to a god.

It was as if they were certain that the other party came from the central galaxy, which was a place that was much stronger than the five worlds in their galaxy.

Naturally, it was not something that they could compare to. It was not embarrassing to be defeated by someone of a higher level than them.

The oldest dragon god growled in agreement.

These dark creatures were left behind in the invading world by the black tide and could be considered important spies. If they were all wiped out, the plan to fuse the five worlds would undoubtedly be much smoother.

In fact, with the power of the treasure tree supporting them, they could quickly eliminate the remaining forces from the black tide in the other four worlds.

“The treasure tree can grow further, and this person with an extraordinary background is only at the level of the fusion realm.”

The three dragon gods thought about it. If the plan went smoothly, their previous worries would be resolved. They would become stronger first and gain the upper hand.

After all, the treasure tree was not an inanimate object. It had its own will and would not be controlled by the weak.

…

At this moment, the first battle in the black water pit had already ended.

Chen Yiming understood how the golden ape, elk, and white cat fought from the way they reacted when facing the dark creatures. With just a little effort, they had instantly killed the three dark creatures.

With just a few rounds of battle, even the black water pit within a radius of 1,000 kilometers could not withstand it, and the terrain changed.

However, the black substance covering the ground had a powerful ability to repair itself. Soon, the gaps were automatically filled up, and the black water pit returned to its original state.

“A black club made of an unknown substance?”

Chen Yiming glanced at the only thing that had survived the battle.

He did not make any move to go forward and investigate. After all, as someone who came from the central galaxy to track down the traces of the black tide, it was impossible for him not to know about the black club.

“This black club is really troublesome. If the dark creatures can use it to appear from thin air, it’s impossible to stop the black tide from extending its reach to the entire world.”

As the elk spoke, it stepped forward and used the antlers on its head to point at the black club.

A blue light blossomed as the strongest single-target attack from the combination of essence, energy, and spirit struck the black club. However, the black club remained firmly in place and only swayed slightly, without taking any damage.

“Let’s attack together. This way, we can deal with the black club faster.”

The golden ape and the white cat followed suit and also unleashed their combined attacks.

The three terrifying creatures attacked three consecutive times before a crack finally appeared on the black club. In the fourth round, a large number of cracks began to appear on the black club. In the fifth round, the black club was completely destroyed.

“A spatial fluctuation has appeared at the end of the black stick that is connected to outer space.”

Chen Yiming’s super perception detected it, so he controlled the space anchor and threw it into the center of the spatial fluctuation.

Soon, he saw a scene from the perspective of a space anchor. In a damp cave with a cold wind, a huge creature whose appearance could not be seen clearly was there.

The other end of the black club was this huge creature, which extended a part of its body through space.

“Unfortunately, it’s not within the range of my super perception. Its true location might be in one of the other four worlds, or it might not even be in this galaxy.”

Chen Yiming only had one space anchor left, so he had no choice but to retrieve it. It was a pity that he had to let this space anchor return to him.

To him, the location of the space anchor related to the foundation base would very likely bring him countless Skill Points in the future after he solved the mystery behind it.

As for those related to the black tide, if he could not obtain Skill Points, they would definitely be of lower importance to him.

Next, Chen Yiming led the golden ape, elk, and white cat to continue clearing the other abnormal spots in the black water pit. With him personally participating, their progress was very fast.

It didn’t take long for more than 100 dark creatures to be found. Without a doubt, they were not able to escape Chen Yiming’s grasp.

“I didn’t expect there to be so many abnormal locations.”

The white cat had returned to its delicate body from its tiger form, but its face was still filled with shock. The fact was that there was a high chance that the three dragon gods were still in the dark about their home almost being taken over.

At this moment, the three dragon gods were indeed furious. They did not expect that so many dark creatures had already been planted on this former battlefield.

Although there was a difference of about a magnitude between hundreds and thousands, it was not long ago when the thousands of dark creatures had been stopped from entering the world.

Now, these hundreds of dark creatures had already successfully descended to the world and acted as spies. The meaning behind this was completely different.

Furthermore, other than the black water pit, were there no other dark creatures hiding in the other areas of the world?

“What!”

Many terrifying creatures who were also secretly paying attention felt their bodies turn cold. They were worried that there were dark creatures around them, and that their every move was being watched.

Initially, everyone thought that when the three dragon gods had destroyed the war weapon and the blockades, they had also wiped out the dark creatures in their world.

Then, even if there were still some dark creatures left, it would be a small problem. The plate-shaped world had come alive again and returned to a state where the native creatures could take the initiative to attack.

However, the truth in front of them showed that it was too early to be happy about it. The hidden tentacles of the black tide had unknowingly spread out.

From darkness to light, then to darkness again, was something that may happen not too long after.

After walking out of the black water pit, the golden ape, the elk, and the white cat were still in low spirits.

Chen Yiming remained calm, as if everything had gone according to plan.

“In this world, the black tide seems to be an unstoppable force. The biggest problem lies in the other three worlds that have been occupied.”

Due to some unavoidable factors, there were no longer any living creatures in the dark forest world. It was a dead world.

“With those three worlds continuously providing negative emotions for the black tide to continue harvesting, the victory of the plate-shaped world will only be a temporary victory.”

“From the looks of it, the counterattack from the black tide is already brewing. There won’t be much time left.”

In reality, it wasn’t just the three dragon gods and the treasure tree that had set their sights on them. Chen Yiming had also set his eyes on the cores of the other four worlds.
