The former territory of the Insect Race.

The entire atmosphere of the world suddenly stagnated, as if even time had frozen at this moment.

A few Insect Race beings, indistinct and immeasurably large, hovered quietly, surrounded by heart-stopping void fluctuations.

They were trembling incessantly, digesting the information relayed by the previous two Totem-level Insect Race beings.

Because the Void Power wielded by the Totem-level Insect Race was bestowed entirely by them.

Thus, every time a Totem-level Insect Race falls, a strand of Void Power carries with it their final memories...

Traversing layers of void, returning to their consciousness.

At this moment, after reading those two segments of memories filled with destruction and unwillingness, a cold yet grand voice slowly resonated:

"The Elf Clan... have actually mastered a power that so restrains my race!"

"That exceptional elf must not be allowed to remain."

"If we let her continue to grow, she will surely become a major threat to our Insect Race."

"No," Just then, a distinctly different voice cut off the consensus,

"The key isn't the elf, but rather that human—"

"The elf only acquired such bizarre abilities under his protection."

"Therefore, I suggest... prioritizing the elimination of that human."

"As long as the human is dead, the remaining elves are not worth fearing."

At these words, several Insect Emperors simultaneously fell into silence, seemingly engaged in intense deliberation within the boundless sea of consciousness.

A moment later, a command that brooked no objection erupted like thunder:

"Kill that human, at all costs, act immediately!"

The Insect Race would never allow the existence of a "nemesis," no matter which race he comes from or where he is.

The instant the command was issued, it was as if the entire Insect Race world had suddenly awoken.

Countless Insect Race beings—from the lowest tier worker insects to the nest lords guarding various regions—simultaneously lifted their heads, dark energy pouring out from their bodies, converging towards the sky like rivers returning to the sea.

The sky began to twist and tear, and a void channel stretching tens of miles gradually formed.

This was the destructive path constructed by forcibly tearing through world barriers and traversing the Endless Void with the combined strength of the entire Insect Race.

As the channel stabilized for an instant, the initial speaker among the Insect Emperors slowly extended a massive pincer—

Wherever it passed, all was annihilated, laws collapsed, even light could not escape, returning entirely to nothingness.

....

Meanwhile, the Snow Wolf Race had already evacuated completely.

Gu Xing had also given the order for Qing Shuang, Fei Yue, Tushan Yueli, and other Guardian Beasts to assist Vera in executing tasks.

Except for Sally, who due to special circumstances, could only temporarily remain in the Beast Taming Space.

At this moment, Liu Li was the only one left by his side, responsible for guarding his safety.

With another glance from Gu Xing, Lilith finally mustered the courage to tentatively speak:

"Little Snow... have you ever thought about living a different lifestyle?"

She posed the question as tactfully as possible.

After all, the Snow Woman had previously made it clear she would never become a human's Guardian Beast.

The Snow Woman was a bit surprised at Lilith's words, shot her a glance, then turned her head towards Gu Xing, immediately understanding the meaning behind the statement—

It was an invitation for her to join this human as his Guardian Beast.

To be honest, she had never entertained such an idea.

However, after the event of the Insect Race invasion, the Snow Woman's thoughts quietly wavered.

She was, after all, merely a support-type Guardian Beast, unable to support the entire Snow Country on her own.

Utilizing the Insect Race to balance the Demon Race was merely a temporary measure.

No one could predict how long this balance could last.

Therefore, faced with Lilith's question, the Snow Woman fell into silence.

To her, following this human might be a better choice than fighting alone.

She had already witnessed his talent with her own eyes—

In the entire Otherworld, it's hard to find anyone as extraordinary as him.

Becoming his Guardian Beast would not disgrace her identity.

Moreover, by Gu Xing's side was also Lilith....

The Snow Woman suddenly raised her head, her gaze gripping upon Gu Xing.

And Gu Xing did not avoid it, he calmly met her gaze.

Moments later, the Snow Woman took a deep breath, seemingly resolved, began to speak—

But just then...

"Crack! Crack!"

The sound of the void shattering pierced the silence, the world suddenly plunged into pure darkness.

A pitch-black spatial corridor extending tens of miles was slowly taking shape high above the sky.

The breath of destruction and sterility poured like a tide from the depths of the corridor, stripping vitality wherever it reached.

Their faces suddenly changed.

"Gu Xing, it's wrong! This aura... it's the Insect Race!"

Lilith cried out in shock, turning abruptly, but saw Gu Xing's body stiff, unable to move.

And at this moment...

Gu Xing's gaze was fixed firmly onto the void channel in the sky—

It was coming for him.

The blood in his veins nearly stagnated, his breath suffocating.

If he hadn't ascended to the Monarch level, just the oppressive aura alone would have been enough to kill him instantly.

He gritted his teeth, using all his strength to slightly shift his gaze, seeing that Lilith and the Snow Woman were unaffected by this aura.

Evidently, this destructive lock—targeted only him.

"Want... to kill me?"

Gu Xing's teeth ground out a creaking sound, his body uncontrollably trembling, blood oozing from his eyes.

He used every ounce of willpower to resist the invisible pressure that threatened to crush him.

"Emperor's Might—!!"

With an indomitable will, he forcibly broke free from the energy for an instant!

Without any hesitation, Gu Xing instantly activated the Sovereign Talent.

The azure Spiritual Power surged through his body, flowing around him like armor.

Under the enhancement of triple attributes, he finally regained a faint control over his body.

A faint sound of surprise came from the depths of the void channel.

But Gu Xing had no time to care.

The instant he regained movement, he shouted hoarsely:

"Lilith—take the Snow Woman, Liu Li, Sally... run!!"

Before his words were finished, he forcibly summoned Liu Li and Sally from the Beast Taming Space.

Though the sky channel was not yet fully stable, the force remained locked onto him.

He clearly felt:

This time's opponent was unlike any enemy he'd faced before.

All his means, all his strategies, were just dust before such an existence.

He could not... let them die here with him.

"Run—!!"

Gu Xing shouted once more, bringing Lilith back to her senses.

She did not hesitate, grabbing hold of Sally and the Snow Woman, but when she reached to pull Liu Li away, Liu Li abruptly avoided.

"I want to stay with the master!"

"You take them and go!"

Liu Li's eyes were filled with a resolute determination never seen before—

Even if she were to die, she would stay beside Gu Xing.

Lilith gripped her hand tightly, her nails nearly embedded into her palm.

She turned to the Snow Woman and Sally—

Since she couldn't take Liu Li, she must ensure the safety of the other two.

Sally, seeing this, tried to struggle to stay, but before Lilith, she had no power to resist, and was promptly knocked unconscious.

In the next moment, a rich blood light erupted around Lilith, enveloping her, the Snow Woman, and Sally together.

Her figure shot away like a crimson rainbow, but there remained a shout echoing between the heavens and the earth:

"Damn it, Gu Xing! I've signed a Blood Covenant with you!"

"If you die, I can't live either—"

"Fight for your life to survive!"
