When the steel manifestation’s eyes passed the statue, its gaze couldn’t move away.

The statue was tall, stylish, and curvaceous. Its ten arms propped up the sky, and it looked especially handsome. It was not known what metal its body was made of… but this metal was fatally tempting to the steel manifestation.

It couldn’t wait to take the other party, integrate it with its own body, and let it become a part of itself.

The steel manifestation paused slightly, and began to search its database.

Looking through its database content, it found that this kind of ‘impulse’ was defined in the ‘love’ folder. To be more precise, in the ‘love at first sight’ subdirectory.

So that was the case.

The steel manifestation said, “№ Tyrannical Tyrant, perhaps it’s love.”

Song Shuhang responded, “Huh?”

The steel manifestation let out a stiff line of words. “I’ve found love at first sight, № Tyrannical Tyrant requesting to plunder… Errors in procedure… Request paused, executing initial task, collecting black dragon spirit stones.”

Then, it continued to squat down and pick up black dragon spirit stones.

“…” Song Shuhang.

Love at first sight? The steel manifestation is in love?

What in the world was going on?

Could it be that the steel manifestation was so damaged that even after it had become his small dantian and recovered, its brain area had yet to be restored? Should he go look for a scientist or researcher, and have them conduct a check-up on it to see if there were any problems with it?

Song Shuhang fell into thought.

Since the core reactor and the steel manifestation had been integrated into his body and become a small golden core, the steel manifestation had become an ‘innate talent’ of one of Song Shuhang’s small golden cores, similar to the ‘smoky body or pseudo-eternity mode’.

Because of this, Song Shuhang could summon the steel manifestation by using his ‘talent’.

But now, it seemed that the newly-summoned steel manifestation needed its brain checked.

“Awoo~ Woo~” That giant bear without a head had come over with a new batch of evil beasts.

Even without its head, the giant bear was able to ‘lock on’ Song Shuhang’s position.

These evil beasts did not rely on their ‘eyes’ to see their enemies.

“Whoosh~”

The Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades greeted them, weaving a net of blades again, and heading towards the giant bear. Having just enjoyed a session of the ‘Saber-Nurturing Technique’, the Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades were full of fighting spirit.

As soon as they met the other party, they evenly cut the giant bear into several pieces.

It was a pity that the bear’s paw was already rotten. If it was still fresh, it could have been taken back for Chu Chu to help her improve her cooking skills.

Afterward, the virtuous lamia appeared behind Song Shuhang.

It was rare for her to be so filled with fighting spirit, even taking the initiative to fight.

Song Shuhang asked, “What weapon do you want?”

The virtuous lamia shook her head. She clasped her palms together, and uttered in a soft voice, “Virtuous—Giant Sun!”

In the next moment, a vast amount of power of virtue burst out, spreading out in all directions with Song Shuhang as the center, and turning into a small dazzling sun.

These evil beasts were undead creatures, and their bodies contained the ‘evil energy of the Netherworld’.

To some extent, both were restrained by light of virtue.

The virtuous lamia did not require weapons. Just by releasing her virtuous skills, she could deal maximum damage to these evil beasts and zombies.

The Virtuous Giant Sun spread in all directions, creating a large ball with a radius of 10 meters.

Within this area, no matter if they were flying in the sky, running on the ground, or digging under the ground, all the evil spirits and beasts were wiped out.

This was a screen-clearing skill that made even Song Shuhang jealous!

Song Shuhang comforted himself, “Although I don’t have actual AOE skills… I do have my light of virtue.”

“Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding~”

A series of sounds resounded.

After the Virtuous Giant Sun dissipated, the evil beasts and evil spirits were all purified. Pieces of shiny ‘black dragon spirit stones’ fell to the ground.

The steel manifestation made its move, quickly picking up all the black dragon spirit stones, and putting them in a cosmos bag—this cosmos bag once belonged to ‘Demon Monarch Anzhi’.

Song Shuhang was preparing some gifts for his disciples and also Lady Onion for the end of the year.

At that time, whichever disciple of his performed the best and made the most progress would be rewarded with this cosmos bag.

At this time, numerous transparent energy lines extended out from the steel manifestation’s body. These were the ‘meridians’ used by the ‘core reactor’ to transport energy. Now, they’d become a skill of the steel manifestation.

These energy lines flexibly picked up the black dragon spirit stones on the ground, and put them into the cosmos bag.

During the days when Lady Onion couldn’t leave the Inner World, the steel manifestation could replace her as Song Shuhang’s loot-gathering pet.

Looking at the evil beasts in front of him, Song Shuhang said, “If my Inner World hadn’t gone into hiding, it would’ve gotten to eat its fill again this time.”

After all, the evil energy of the Netherworld in the bodies of the evil beasts could be easily absorbed by the Inner World.

If the Inner World hadn’t cowered, it would’ve been able to absorb a portion of the ‘evil energy’ every time an evil beast was killed.

It was a pity that the evil energy here ended up dissipating and going to waste.

Energy = money.

How much money had been wasted just in this wave?

Song ‘Heart-Piercing Pain’ Shuhang.

On the Divine Lobster’s Chariot, Lady Kunna was dumbfounded.

She had been observing Shuhang before, and his magical-power top-up device showed that he was still in the Fifth Level area in terms of authority, although his mental energy had already reached the Sixth Level.

However, wasn’t his combat power a bit too over the top?

These undead creatures that caused headaches for the residents of the Black Dragon World were like mud in Mr. Shuhang’s hands. Evil beasts of the Fourth and Fifth Level could not even survive a move of his.

Moreover, ever since the start, it seemed as if he never used all of his strength.

And that sun-like magical technique, wasn’t it nearing the Seventh Level in terms of power?

How was he able to release it?

Lady Kunna smiled bitterly, and said, “Mr. Shuhang, you have too many secrets.”

She had wanted to understand him by observing him… But in hindsight, it turned out to be a task with an extremely high difficulty rating.

❄️❄️❄️

In the Dragon Blood Clan tribe, the old tribal chief gulped.

What else could be said? Life truly was truly unpredictable. One second ago, he was in the troughs of desperation. One second later, it was as if he was on cloud nine.

This was even more stimulating than bungee jumping.

This precious hybrid was absolutely not an ordinary Sixth Level.

Perhaps he was using a special cultivation technique that concealed his aura?

“Perhaps he can— F*ck!” Before the old tribal chief could finish speaking, he saw a tall figure stepping out of the camp of the evil beasts and zombies.

It was a female zombie whose appearance was similar to that of a human of the Black Dragon World.

As soon as she appeared, all the undead creatures gave way to her one after the other.

This meant that this female zombie had a very high status… and similarly possessed very high strength.

She should, at the very least, possess power at the Seventh Level, if not higher.

She moved towards Song Shuhang step by step before stopping to face him at a distance of about 20 meters away.

The Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades felt threatened, and hovered beside Song Shuhang. The virtuous lamia grew in size, and wrapped around his body.

Song Shuhang immediately understood that this female zombie was a strong enemy.

After all, she had a completely different style from those ordinary zombies!

She wasn’t that tall, but she was slender and slim, giving others the illusion of her being ‘tall.’ Her skin was in the style of the Black Dragon World, but similar to Lady Kunna, the black color was very beautiful, and looked healthy.

Her legs were straight, her feet exposed outside her long skirt. She wasn’t wearing shoes, and her beautiful feet were there for all to see.

Unlike the zombies and evil beasts on the side, her body was intact. There was no sign of decay, and she looked like a young girl filled with vitality.

Only her red eyes, sharp teeth, and the aura of death around her body distinguished her from the living.

If the member of a group was so different from the others, it was very likely that they were a strong mutant.

“You’re very strong,” said the female zombie.

She spoke in fluent ‘Black Dragon World’ language, but her voice was slightly hoarse.

Song Shuhang clasped his fists, smiled back, and replied, “You’re too kind.”

The female zombie continued, “But I am stronger. Not only am I strong, but I have high authority, superior intelligence, and my looks are outstanding.”

“???” Song Shuhang.

Sorry, even with the jumpy way of thinking that I acquired from the ‘Nine Provinces Number One Group’, I’m unable to keep pace with your thoughts.

At the same time, Song Shuhang placed his hands behind him, and sent a signal to ‘Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword’.

The female zombie added, “So, since I am strong, powerful, superior in intelligence, and excellent in appearance, you should kneel and surrender!”

“…” Song Shuhang.

It was a simple line of reasoning, but it looked rather convincing.

“Strength is not judged by how well one can talk,” Song Shuhang said.

The female zombie smiled coldly. “If you aren’t going to surrender, then die!”

“Since you say you’re an expert, prove it.” Song Shuhang smiled slightly and raised his head. The Sage’s eye in his left eye socket exuded a strange light.

The Sage’s impregnating eye was so powerful that it could even make a stone conceive a life.

However, the ‘female zombie’ in front of him was an undead creature. As such, Song Shuhang wasn’t sure whether the Impregnating Gaze would have any effect on her.

For this reason, he had Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword quietly prepare itself.

“Prove it? Then I’ll use your death to prove my strength.” The female zombie burst out, and behind her, the projection of a ‘1,000-armed golem’ appeared.

“There’s no need for something so troublesome. Expert’s Appraisal.” The light in Song Shuhang’s eye fell on the female zombie.

Facts had proven that the effects of the Sage’s Impregnating Gaze were outstanding.

The female zombie’s abdomen quickly swelled. However, there was no other effect besides this.

The female zombie’s face was expressionless. As an undead creature, she couldn’t feel something like ‘pain’.

“Sometimes, zombies are just too much of a cheat.” Song Shuhang stretched out his hand and made a grabbing motion. Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword appeared in his hand.

He then spun his wrist. The Heaven Burning Flaming Saber flames raged.

At the same time, at the battlefield a decent distance away…

The steel manifestation quietly arrived at a suitable place while holding the [Ancient Witch’s Blessing].

At the next moment, it activated the teleportation ability, flickered, and appeared right beside the ‘statue’.
