Weishui River Basin, the designated F segment.

Lead clouds hung low, the river surface roiled with mysterious waves.

Underneath, vague shadows appeared beneath the water.

Creatures with thick carapaces, limbs covered in scales, and mouths resembling dragon muzzles swiftly swam through the waters.

Upon closer inspection, they were actually fearsome Celestial Demons similar to Crocodile Dragons (crocodiles).

Leading them was a monstrously large figure.

Its massive body fit perfectly within the river channel, tightly wedged within its confines.

The other Crocodile Dragons could only trail behind the "Dragon King," inhaling its exhaust.

It was nearly a fourth-tier Demon Nest Master [Bo Gang], endowed with Water Control Divine Power as a Cosmic Divine Son.

Not merely possessing divine blood!

Cheng Yukun’s figure appeared beneath Bo Gang’s scaled belly.

"Thank you, Bo Gang Divine Son, for coming to assist."

The giant Crocodile Dragon slowly shrank its body, indigo light blossoming.

A Crocodile Man with a long snout, six zhang tall, with a massive tail, covered with green algae and spines, treaded the riverbed.

The ability to transform into a convenient combat form is one of the key differentiators between mortals and divine seeds within the Cosmic Realm.

Even among mortal races, distinctions of rank are made.

At the bottom tier of the expeditionary force are mindless mutated creatures, transformed either through laws or forbidden cultivation techniques.

The former influenced by divine power, the latter the handiwork of various gods.

For instance, the "Demon Path" martial arts widely spread on Blue Star, and various evil cultivation techniques within other Dao realms opposing the Cosmos.

All these are aberrant seeds dispersed by deities adept in such arts to facilitate the expedition’s progress.

As for other mortals in the Cosmos with rich divine blood, they stand a class above, with a chance to reach mortal pinnacles.

Others with no divine blood or thin divine blood, frankly speaking, are mere expendables, cannon fodder.

The difference between them and mutated creatures is merely a matter of when death comes.

In this expedition affecting the entire universe, no one can remain unaffected...

...

Bo Gang’s presence stirred turbulent waves, not responding to Cheng Yukun for a while, its gaze revealing the cold indifference of a cold-blooded creature, as if it hadn’t heard the voice beside it.

It grasped the void with its paws, producing a large silver knife and black square shield.

Blue Qi Strength coursed along the surfaces of both items, marking them as extraordinary.

Bo Gang finally acknowledged the small figure beneath it:

"I will certainly heed Lord Mo Jue’s words, you don’t need to remind me, what’s his name... Meng Chuan?

I will deal with him."

Even though the leader had informed it, Bo Gang still showed complete unconcern.

Cheng Yukun worried about Bo Gang underestimating the enemy, urgently reminding:

"Bo Gang Master, you must be careful, this Meng Chuan is not..."

"Shut up!"

Bo Gang snorted coldly, raising its hand to wield the knife, manipulating nearly a hundred tons of water to gather into a shockwave, hurling Cheng Yukun against the rocks and turning to leave with many Crocodile Dragons.

Amid the spray of foam, Cheng Yukun wiped the blood from his mouth, coldly smiled.

A mere swipe could injure him, Bo Gang indeed possessed outrageous strength, ensuring Meng Chuan’s demise!

"But do you think you can kill him and leave alive..."

This child is humanity’s treasure, surely guarded by a protector.

Bo Gang kills the opponent, but cannot ensure its own survival!

Gazing at Bo Gang’s broad back, Cheng Yukun silently whispered to himself...

Meanwhile, Bo Gang’s form streaked through the water like a streamlined lightning bolt.

Completely uninhibited by water flow or pressure, the river embraced it, aiding its swift passage.

It’s certainly not without intelligence, indeed quite clever.

It’s precisely because of wisdom that it understands the vast disparity between so-called human geniuses and beings like itself, a Cosmic Divine Son!

Human genius standards barely edge out the Cosmos-reared mutated boars.

Bo Gang born with divine power, provided it continues cultivating steadily and seizes small resources from the expedition, future accomplishments are nearly assured, breaking the seventh-tier mortal shackles!

Among these billions, the tens of thousands of geniuses, only one who has already left Blue Star barely competes with its talent.

And Mo Jue’s information is accurate, what Meng Chuan? Just a mere child freshly entering the third tier.

"A matter of one blade..."

Bo Gang has slain many self-important geniuses across various worlds, this time is no different!

Some small world denizens are utterly laughable, standing before it, claiming to be "the hope of the world," "dragon slayer heroes."

Their boasts are extravagant, but they still cry and beg under its single stroke, two strokes sending them back for reincarnation, hoping to be born in the Cosmos next lifetime!

Bo Gang descended from the lower realms of the Cosmos, unmatched in its slaughter.

Only "small realm ascendents" like Zhao Linyuan caught its eye.

After all, it is the true prodigy of the Crocodile Dragon clan, the pride of the god [Crocodile Saint], and favored by the bloodline origin [Ancestor Dragon Divine Master] as the future of the realm!

Do humans think vanquishing the Tree Realm Mountain Range Divine Master’s avatar puts them at ease?

Greater terror has long permeated the air...

The Ancestor Dragon Divine Master suffered from lacking Law knowledge in soul domain, but its true form is infinitely more powerful, the Cosmic Demon Dragon Overlord!

It holds no territory, dwelling in the starry sky, its body spanning the Milky Way galaxy, currently stationed at the bridgehead assaulting the Dragon Realm realm.

The Ancestor Dragon’s renown, within the opposing Cosmos "Dao Realm" is thunderous.

Even a Dao Realm Dragon Sovereign comparable to a True God must be cautiously discreet before the Ancestor Dragon, lest the old master seize their "Dao"!
