Su Xi found herself completely unfamiliar with the seventh world, with no sense of direction. To save time, she decided to have Li Qiuyu lead the way.
Although Li Qiuyu was unhappy about being treated like a robot dog, under Su Xi's formidable presence, he obediently guided her towards the northeast corner.
They hadn't walked for long when they suddenly heard a series of chewing sounds.
The sound was not loud, but in the darkness, it seemed particularly eerie. Wherever Su Xi walked, the sound felt as if it were right by her ear.
The grating noise constantly stimulated her nerves, sending shivers down her spine.
Hearing the persistent, eerie sound, Su Xi stopped, narrowing her eyes to scan her surroundings.
However, everything around was pitch black, making it impossible to see anything and thus understand what was happening.
What was going on?
In this cursed place, even her supercomputer was useless; she could only passively await the impending crisis.
This feeling of passivity was truly unpleasant.
Su Xi no longer relied on her own exploration to uncover the secrets ahead. Instead, she looked at Li Qiuyu in her hand, hoping to get the answers she sought.
Having been with Li Qiuzhe for so many years, Li Qiuyu was bound to know something.
Upon hearing the strange sounds from not far away, Li Qiuyu's expression immediately tensed. His voice trembled slightly as he hesitantly said, "Wait a minute, could these be the spatial creatures of the seventh world appearing?"
Su Xi's face showed surprise at Li Qiuyu's words.
Spatial creatures existed even in this place?
Su Xi was quite familiar with spatial creatures.
She knew they inhabited the interstellar space, feeding on radiation daily. These creatures had no fixed form and could appear as cats, dogs, tigers, or various other beings.
However, due to constant exposure to radiation, their bodies would undergo varying degrees of mutation. Each of them was highly venomous, and contact would lead to radiation infection.
Without an antidote, survival was impossible.
At best, it would result in madness; at worst, they would bleed to death.
These mutated creatures were all extremely ferocious. If they were not completely incapacitated, they would relentlessly attack.
It was essentially a fight to the death.
But these creatures typically lived in areas with strong radiation. Why would they appear in this newly formed world?
How did these creatures come into being?
Li Qiuyu glanced at Su Xi, shrinking his head. He said somewhat sheepishly, "You're right, these creatures shouldn't normally be here. But Li Qiuzhe, to accelerate the formation of this world, introduced many spatial creatures from other places."
"After hundreds of years of mutual combat, these spatial creatures have undoubtedly undergone unique mutations. Dealing with them will certainly not be easy."
"I don't think the two of us can defeat them. Let's leave quickly!"
Su Xi's face contorted into an expression worse than if she had eaten excrement upon hearing Li Qiuyu's words.
Li Qiuzhe was truly a madman to have done something so reckless.
Had she even considered the consequences of such an action?
The seventh world was so close to their planet. If these spatial creatures found an entry point, the entire population of the planet would be doomed.
Ordinary people would have no chance of resisting these mutated spatial creatures.
Even if they were lucky and these mutated creatures didn't find a passage connecting the two worlds, after so long, dealing with them alone would be exceedingly difficult.
"Let's go!"
After a brief assessment, Su Xi quickly made up her mind.
Regardless of what these spatial creatures were, she had to leave this place immediately. Wasting energy pointlessly was not a good idea.
Otherwise, if she got entangled with these spatial creatures, escaping would become an exceedingly difficult task.
Su Xi, dragging Li Qiuyu along, no longer cared about direction and began to run forward.
Finding people could wait; escaping danger was the priority.
The eerie movements behind them seemed to sense Su Xi's intentions. Their footsteps quickened, and they resolutely pursued Su Xi.
Clearly, they had already marked Su Xi as prey and had no intention of letting her go easily.
As Su Xi heard the footsteps growing closer behind her, her surprise intensified, and she pressed harder on her feet, increasing her speed.
After running for a short while, Su Xi felt a surge of helplessness.
Her speed had already surpassed the speed of light, yet why could the monsters behind her keep up, with the distance between them even shortening?
What was going on?
Just as Su Xi was about to accelerate further, she suddenly heard a fierce roar in her ear, and a powerful gust of wind came from behind, heading directly for her heart.
Although she couldn't see what was behind her, Su Xi decisively dodged to the side, avoiding being eviscerated.
As soon as she dodged, a powerful wave of energy grazed her back.
"BOOM!"
As the beam of light streaked past Su Xi, it illuminated the surrounding darkness and erupted with a deafening explosion.
Su Xi had evaded the attack. Without time to wipe the sweat from her brow, her gaze fixed on the dark silhouette not far behind her.
She knew that since the opponent's attack was already upon her, it would be futile to try and dodge further.
A colossal wolf, three stories high, stared at her with ink-green eyes, its gaze locked onto her. The wolf's body trembled incessantly, its fur standing on end, its sharp fangs glinting menacingly, and white saliva dripped from its mouth.
"Roar~"
The giant wolf seemed pleased with Su Xi as its meal, letting out an excited growl, eager to devour her.
Following its roar, a beam of white light shot out. The white beam carried a powerful impact and then surged towards Su Xi.
The white beams moved at an extremely high speed, emitting a sonic boom as they shot through the air.
"Damn it!"
Su Xi hadn't expected the giant wolf to unleash such a potent attack.
Startled, she retreated, trying to evade the attacks.
But before she could retreat, a barrage of attacks enveloped her, and a powerful aura locked onto her.
Under the intensity of this locking aura, Su Xi knew she couldn't escape and had to confront it head-on.
Otherwise, no matter where she hid, these beams of light would find her.
Without further thought, Su Xi knew she had to deal with the beams of light.
Therefore, just as the beams were about to reach her, Su Xi swiftly drew her Judge's Brush and began to sketch a shield in front of her.
As this shield appeared, a black, patterned ripple materialized before her, radiating an alluring aura.
This seventh world had just emerged, and the deathly energy within was extremely potent. Thus, with this opportunity, the Judge's Brush was like a tiger with wings.
Leveraging the Judge's Brush's energy, she could absorb more power and have more chances.
"CRASH!"
The two collided, instantly emitting a piercing sound.
Following this sound, Su Xi was propelled back several steps before finally stopping, her face filled with disbelief.
It was so powerful. If she hadn't used her ultimate move immediately, she would have lost her life.
After completing the maneuver, Su Xi wiped the sweat from her brow, feeling a sense of relief.
Fortunately, she hadn't made the wrong decision.
The giant wolf seemed surprised that Su Xi could withstand its radiation blast. It let out a long howl and, dissatisfied, charged forward.
Prey that had reached its maw would not be allowed to live.
Its stomach was already growling with hunger.
Despite its immense size, the giant wolf moved with incredible speed.
In a short moment, it was before Su Xi. Its pungent odor immediately assaulted Su Xi's senses.
The sudden assault made Su Xi feel dizzy and disoriented.
Then, taking advantage of Su Xi's momentary distraction, the giant wolf swung its claws, aiming for Su Xi's head, intending to split it open.
Its claws, mutated over many years, were now comparable to divine weapons. As they flashed, they exuded a chilling gleam, ready to be baptized by blood.
At the critical moment, Li Qiuyu, seeing Su Xi in danger, woke her up.
As Su Xi regained consciousness, she saw the descending claws above her and her heart leaped. Her awakening had been met with such a gift.
Though she was mentally grumbling, Su Xi knew she had to dodge. If she didn't act quickly, she would truly be doomed.
Despite being woken up just in time, the reaction window was too late. Her shoulder was slashed by the sharp claws, leaving a long bloody gash, and the powerful impact sent her flying backward.
If not for Su Xi's robust mecha, the giant wolf's claws would have directly eviscerated her.
"What do I do?" Su Xi felt utterly helpless, unable to think of a solution for the moment.
This monstrous creature before her was incredibly powerful.
Its speed and strength both left her feeling utterly frustrated.
Seeing that Su Xi could still survive its attack, the giant wolf was completely enraged.
In all its years, no one had lasted this long under its claws, and Su Xi would be no exception.
Therefore, the giant wolf roared incessantly and charged at Su Xi.
For it, the most important thing right now was to devour Su Xi.
Seeing the giant wolf charging in for close combat, Su Xi hastily drew her Meteor God Sword, preparing to perform an "abdominal incision" on the beast.
However, when her Meteor God Sword struck the giant wolf, it only left a series of marks, failing to penetrate its formidable defense.
"What the hell."
Seeing the giant wolf's incredible defense, Su Xi couldn't help but feel overwhelmed.
How was she supposed to play this game?
She couldn't harm the giant wolf, but it could harm her. This was clearly not a fair fight.
Despite her intense frustration, she was utterly incapable of fending off such a powerful foe.
Just as Su Xi was at a loss for how to deal with the giant wolf, Li Qiuyu, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke, "This thing fears fire. Use fire quickly!"
"Use fire?" Su Xi muttered, then decisively took action.
In her haste, she had completely forgotten about this crucial detail.
