Disc-shaped spaceship interior cabin.

In front of the virtual screen, Su Liang curiously looked at Qin Shou and asked: "This mission to support the Western Continent isn't a trivial matter. Why be so high-profile, even flying directly over the Sword Sect's territory?"

Qin Shou clasped his hands behind his back and smiled: "What's wrong with being high-profile?"

Su Liang thought for a moment. "It's not necessarily bad, just feels like being low-key might be more appropriate."

"Haha, Mr. Su, the worldview of the Heavenly Artifact Continent's natives is nothing like Earth's."

Qin Shou pointed at the projected sect territories on the screen and said: "Here, the strong are revered, and the survival law of the strong preying on the weak has prevailed since ancient times. The more high-profile you are, the stronger they think you are.

The Sword Sect fears Earth precisely because Elder Long, a Divine Realm expert, has consistently ignored the Sword Sect's Divine Realm expert. This has left the Sword Sect's experts uncertain."

Su Liang came to a realization. "So that's how it is. But, Qin Shou, how are you so knowledgeable about the Heavenly Artifact Continent's affairs?"

Qin Shou smiled mysteriously. "I wouldn't say knowledgeable, just experienced."

"Experienced in what?"

"Reading novels."

Su Liang: "..."

What the hell is wrong with this guy?

Su Liang shook his head and quietly moved further away from Qin Shou.

On the other side, Fang Bao pointed at the virtual map and said: "Principal Qin, we're about to reach the Demon Dragon Mountain Range. Passing through this range will definitely alarm the Giant Demon Dragon here. Should we detour?"

In front of everyone, Fang Bao was still considerate enough to address Qin Shou as Principal Qin.

After all, when you're benefiting from someone, you have to show them respect.

In response, Qin Shou raised his hand and pulled up the Giant Demon Dragon's data.

[Giant Demon Dragon]

[Form: Upright humanoid Dragon Beast]

[Strength: Disaster-level (Holy Artifact Master)]

[Height: 318 meters]

[Abilities: Huge Strength, Demon Dragon Breath...]

"Haha, it's rare to encounter a Disaster-level Monster. No need to detour—fly straight through. No, turn on the particle diffuser too," Qin Shou said.

Fang Bao's expression shifted. "You're trying to draw out this Disaster-level Monster?"

"Exactly."

"You sure about this?"

Fang Bao leaned in close to Qin Shou's ear, full of doubt.

After all, Qin Shou had fought that "constantly-red-and-green" guy before, and it didn't look impressive at all.

Qin Shou cast a sideways glance at Fang Bao. "Stop talking and hurry to prepare."

"Oh."

After Fang Bao left, Su Liang stepped forward with a serious expression. "The monsters of the Heavenly Artifact Continent are no weaker than some Titan Giant Beasts. Stirring up trouble is worse than avoiding it—why don't we just..."

"Relax. We'll give it a shot. If we can't beat it, we'll just run!"

Su Liang: "..."

Is this something a Supreme Strong would even say?

...

Misty mountains tangled together, crisscrossed by gorges and lined with towering peaks.

"Zzzzz..."

The massive spaceship slowly poked half its body out from the clouds. A strange vibration pulse swept across the mountains, provoking countless Devil Beasts to roar and bellow, challenging the unknown "monster" in the sky.

"Screee..."

"Hiss..."

Numerous bird-like Monsters burst from the forests, surging in waves toward the spaceship. Suddenly, a series of Thunder Power ripples spread around the spaceship's exterior, and where they passed, the bird Monsters were all scorched into blackened corpses and fell to the earth.

Soon after, just as the spaceship crossed a ten-thousand-meter-deep chasm, the strange vibration pulse swept through the gorge, instantly waking a powerful slumbering presence.

"Roar!!"

A deafening dragon roar echoed across the chasm and mountains. Immediately, countless Devil Beasts ceased their roaring, cowering and trembling in fear.

Under this dragon roar, the spaceship emitting the vibration pulse seemed to be struck by an invisible attack. The outer Thunder Power ripples vanished quickly, the ship rocked violently, and its control system showed signs of malfunctioning—on the verge of a crash.

"Buzz..."

At that moment, vast Light Energy surged from inside the spaceship, isolating the invisible attack. The spacecraft shot toward the sky, hidden among the clouds.

"Crash crash crash..."

Within the chasm, debris continually fell as a massive black figure moved swiftly. The chasm began collapsing in succession, and a colossal body leapt out of the depths.

The giant beast had the head of a ferocious dragon, double wings sprouting from its back, a humanoid form, and outrageously exaggerated muscles across its body. Its dragon-like limbs casually waved, tearing open spatial rifts with ease.

"Roar!!"

The dragon roared toward the heavens as the Giant Demon Dragon opened its enormous maw. Its six-hundred-meter-wide fleshy wings unfolded mightily, enveloping endless clouds and gales, blotting out the sky as it charged toward the heavens.

"Boom!!"

In the next moment, a dazzling light beam burst from the clouds, blasting straight toward the mid-air Giant Demon Dragon.

"Roar!"

The Giant Demon Dragon's eyes filled with ferocity, and its massive jaws spat out pitch-black breath energy, colliding head-on with the light beam.

"Boom boom boom..."

The heavens trembled as shockwaves erupted, obliterating mountains and wiping out countless lives within the black-and-white energy clash.

As the energies stalemated, the Void quaked, and several Light Giants quietly appeared, encircling the Giant Demon Dragon.

"Zzzzz..."

Hands forming L-shapes, simplified energy beams shot out, rapidly widening spatial fissures that engulfed the unprepared Giant Demon Dragon.

"Boom boom boom..."

"Roar..."

At the center of the blazing light, the raging dragon roared as it plummeted to the ground, carving out a crater over a thousand meters in diameter.

The earth quaked as a Light Giant descended, beams of light streaking down and merging into the giant body.

The energy required for a clone at the Demigod Realm level was colossal. Qin Shou couldn't pull off creating hundreds of clones as easily as before.

"Crack crack crack..."

On the ground, the earth splintered as debris shot everywhere. The Giant Demon Dragon leapt out of the crater, snarling ferociously at Qin Shou.

"Boom..."

It prepared to move, only to discover one of its fleshy wings had already been torn off, lying limp on the ground and hindering its mobility.
