As they approached the city gates, the whale made a gesture, and the gates immediately swung open. In that second, everyone’s expression turned grave; they would have a serious challenge to escape those beasts again and continue their journey.

The whale walked calmly, seemingly unconcerned. Then, Langrum drew her sword and prepared for another fight, her fighting spirit rising.

"You can relax, just stick together and protect yourselves," the whale said casually.

After a few minutes, they passed through the barrier of that place, and their world was once again covered by a dense sandstorm. But now, even Loeus could train in this environment. The women were slightly excited; before, they seemed to be in purgatory, but now the difference was huge. Their bodies could endure this place with just a light effort. Little did they know that the level of their physical control and QI control had reached a shocking level; only someone in the Core Formation Realm would be similar to them. Of course, that didn’t mean they could fight a core formation expert. That would be suicide, but they should be able to jump one or maybe two stages with their fighting power.

They walked calmly for two hours, and it was at this moment that the whale stopped. Everyone halted, and the air between them became tense, but the whale said nothing and simply placed Ruri on the ground, and she joined the others with a contorted expression.

The whale then took a deep breath for several seconds, and when it stopped, the entire desert paused in sync with him. The storm’s sand seemed to freeze in place, and in the next second, the grains fell to the ground, leaving the surroundings open, with no sign of the storm.

Soon, the air around the united group became heavy, and a dense pressure made them tremble slightly. In their visions on all sides, dozens of those giant beasts appeared. They all stared at them, making them feel the sinister satisfaction emanating from these creatures. They surrounded Alm and Bruno’s group, covering any escape route.

At that moment, everyone turned to the front and saw the back of the whale. Did he... know this? Everyone thought. But the silent answer came next: hundreds of earth runes emerged in a barrier around them. Fire runes silently joined the barrier, and a subtle violet aura was also present among the runes.

"Just wait," said the whale emotionlessly. Then, his body floated with a mystical glow radiating from his eyes. His entire bloodline was activated, resonating with the earthly laws.

All the distant beasts looked at that round ant, and expressions of ridicule permeated among them. There were thirty-two demon beasts at the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment. What could this clearly weaker being do?

As soon as that thought arose in their not-so-intelligent minds, they felt the QI in their meridians stagnate. Only their eyes turned toward the whale, and they saw the light immediately obscured by a sinister Yin that sprouted in that world. At the same time, a heat made their blood boil, and a pure Yang illuminated in contrast, resonating with the life in their bodies.

The whale then rose several meters with his three extreme powers, leaving the entire group watching with shocked eyes. From above, the whole world was illuminated by a golden and sacred sun radiating from the whale.

The whale opened his eyes and snorted, feeling all that power around him. ’It has its similarities to the queen’s power... but the feeling is completely different,’ Bruno analyzed.

’Maybe this shows that we can come close to the queen. The same golden color is just a hint of the origins of her power; in the future, we will understand better,’ Alm spoke and devilishly smiled at the beasts around. ’Let’s test a little.’

The imposing whale rose high and waved, triggering a disturbance in the sands below. A stunned beast felt the omen of death as its eyes opened with tension, instantly awakening. It tried to move its body, but in the blink of an eye, thousands of sand grains launched like a storm, enveloping the creature.

The beast roared in fury, releasing all its QI, but to its despair, nothing changed. Its frantic movements lasted for two seconds, then the sands covered it more and more. In the next second, it stopped as if nature itself had decided to bury its existence. The whale then murmured inaudibly to everyone around.

"Gravitational Domination. Good name."

Unperceivable to everyone around the beast, a gravitational trap was manifested, imprisoning it while the sand slowed its movements. Apparently satisfied, the whale murmured again.

"Magnetic Calling? Kinda cheesy, but okay, let’s test it."

A tremor shook the scenery, leaving everyone stunned. In the next second, the earth near the beast opened like a hungry mouth, revealing a giant black spear projecting directly into the creature’s body. A rain of blood followed, painting the environment in dark shades of red. It was terrestrial iron that was moved from within the earth, used as a weapon. All of this lasted only ten seconds, and the colossal beast was annihilated like a fragile insect.

Everyone in the group watched this in shock, and the beasts around were equally tense.

’The QI cost is too high; we lost almost a third too quickly. We have to refine this better,’ Alm thought mentally.

Suddenly, the world plunged into darkness, and the temperature dropped abruptly. An invisible hammer seemed to fall on the chests of everyone in Alm and Bruno’s group, leaving them immobilized, unable to move a muscle. At that moment, the previously frightened beasts lost their fear, revealing relief in their eyes. It was their leader who watched from afar and decided to act.

’He finally moved. Well, let’s end this quickly,’ Bruno said, directing his senses to a distant point coming from the North.

The golden power around the whale trembled, and at the same instant, his eyes took on the same hue. The aura around him thickened, causing space to tremble before his presence. Then, from above, the whale fell violently to the earth, like the stepping of a god upon the world.

BOOM!!!

When the divine whale hit the ground, the world and the laws of the earth seemed to explode in a seismic disaster. A wave of golden power, with overwhelming intensity, expanded like the harbinger of the apocalypse and, in the next second, engulfed all the beasts around. It was the divine touch of death, which instantly turned their existences into nothing, dissolving them back into the earth and perpetuating the eternal cycle of life and death.

The golden light faded, and everyone in the group watched from within the barrier as everything dissolved before the divine power. Soon, only the dense presence of death permeated the air, and their eyes were completely frozen. Incredulous, they felt and confirmed the destruction of all those beasts. However, they didn’t have much time to reflect as the whale quickly appeared before them.

From the North, a pillar of QI rose to the heavens, and with an explosion of fury, the presence of pure violence rushed toward them like the harbinger of certain death. The whale, with tired eyes, spoke quickly.

"Activate the armor! Langrum, protect the children, and brace yourselves!"

At that moment, all the runes of earth, fire, and the violet power that composed the barrier moved in harmony. The whale spat blood, and electricity emerged from his body, covering the earth runes. The fire runes were activated, and at the same time, the violet power enveloped everyone like a gentle and welcoming veil. Then, the whale jumped into the barrier, and everything outside was covered in electricity and flames.

BOOM!!!

An explosion followed by a deafening noise hit everyone inside the barrier, causing them to fall to their knees. Then, the world around them seemed to move eastward in a rough and visceral manner.

At the same time, a black beast, surrounded by QI that could rival even a sect patriarch, ran. However, all it saw was a sun of fire and lightning explode and fly at an abnormal speed to the east. Using all its power to the limit, it ran in pursuit, but in a second, it stopped with red marks on its eyes and forehead.

They were the slavery marks ingrained in its bloodline. Alm and Bruno’s group left the beast’s domain, and it could no longer continue the chase. Soon, a bestial roar of extreme fury shook the entire desert. Alm and Bruno, who were far away, smiled; they took a risk, but it worked out perfectly.
