Chapter 619: Chapter 392: Scorching Abyss_2

He had switched to using a high-power plasma pistol, which had a range and killing power not inferior to the Black Constant Crystal Battle Bow. The output power could be adjusted to suit different Level combats; the highest power setting fires a high-temperature plasma beam that could instantly kill an unprotected Legendary fighter.

Additionally, he was equipped with dozens of energy boxes, sufficient to sustain a prolonged battle.

Not being in the Star Realm, he naturally used high-tech weapon equipment.

All these products were manufactured by the True Dragon Dynasty.

Although the foundation of the True Dragon Dynasty was in the Star Realm and primarily developed Ether Technology, they hadn’t entirely abandoned scientific research. Their technology level was much superior to Earth’s, possessing the standard of a Sixth Level civilization, based solely on technology.

Ji Xinghuo jumped onto the Branch Horn Cloud Deer, pointing south, "Start running."

To the south lay the equator.

Among several locations Calula had mentioned, one area was called "Scorched Abyss," consisting of numerous canyons running in different directions. The deepest parts reached down to the crust, the surface being hammered by meteorites falling from the planet’s ring for hundreds of years, littered with meteorite craters, extremely dangerous.

The environment was just one of the danger factors.

Most terrifying was that the area had once been a biological experiment park of the You Hui Clan. After the extinction of the You Hui Clan, a large number of creatures had fled into the underground canyon, forming a complex ecosystem.

The Branch Horn Cloud Deer ran on the rugged mountain path as if it were flat ground.

Ji Xinghuo looked up.

The black planetary ring stretched from the ground into space, its end invisible, appearing like a giant wall about to collapse - a magnificent yet tremendously oppressive sight.

Records indicated that only a small part of Black Ring Star’s moon had been shattered; the remaining part fell into the Roche limit and was torn apart by the gravity of Black Ring Star. The heavier parts had already crashed onto the surface, causing catastrophes.

Numerous smaller fragments of the moons formed the planetary ring.

However, hundreds of thousands of years into the future, as more and more fragments fell to the ground, the planetary ring would gradually disappear.

The innermost layer of the planetary ring was made up of blocks of black rock and ice blocks, soaring across thousands of meters in the sky like never-ending meteors.

Periodically, meteors fell toward the ground.

"If I posted this on Earth’s network, the views would definitely break a hundred billion!"

Ji Xinghuo thought this as he pulled out his phone from the Dimension Stomach and began filming the sky.

After shooting several video clips, he suddenly stopped.

His right hand moved as fast as lightning, pulling out the plasma pistol from his waist and firing it toward the front side. The blue-white beam flashed and vanished.

Hundreds of meters away, a monster’s body fell from the shadows.

[Spiritual Origin Ability +18]

Only then did the Branch Horn Cloud Deer realize there was a monster attack, its body trembled, and it nearly turned tail to flee.

"Go there," Ji Xinghuo commanded.

The Branch Horn Cloud Deer delicately stepped towards the monster’s corpse. During this process, Ji Xinghuo continuously pulled the trigger, his muzzle emitting three blue beams in different directions, dropping three more monster bodies.

[Spiritual Origin Ability +13+16+9]

"Not bad!"

Ji Xinghuo, seeing the notification in his field of view, felt it had been a long time since he’d experienced the sensation of hunting monsters and harvesting Spiritual Origin Ability.

He jumped down to the ground to take a closer look at the monsters.

The monocle worn on his face displayed several lines of identification information: "Large Shadow Demon Dog, Superior Level, sharp sense of smell, stealth, fast running speed, adept at ambushing, social, weak point: head, high threat level..."

"Shadow Demon Dog, Elite Level..."

Every time Ji Xinghuo looked at a monster corpse, notification information would pop up.

These were scanning glasses specially made for identifying Black Ring Star monsters, equipped with nighttime infrared vision, capable of detecting lurking monsters at close range. Nearly every Mutant hunter on Black Ring Star had a pair.

This Superior Level Shadow Demon Dog was three and a half meters long, hairless, with limbs that had deformed claws, and a massive black tumor on its abdomen, looking quite nauseating.

The other three Shadow Demon Dogs also had deformed organs.

They belonged to the same species, yet their appearances had significant differences, looking nothing like a natural species.

Now, they all had been shot in the head.

Ji Xinghuo placed his hand on the largest carcass, and Alien Species information popped up in front of him.

[Monster: Shadow Demon Dog]

[Level: Superior]

[Alien Species: Spirit Smell, color-changing skin, Toughness, Tear, Dark Vision, Flash Step]

"Huh?"

Ji Xinghuo was surprised.

This Shadow Demon Hound was just a Superior monster, yet it had six alien species, not only one to two more than the usual Superior monsters, but also each of them was extremely useful, as if they were carefully configured like professional templates.

The majority of monsters or spiritual objects have their awakened alien species related to the environment.

Even the strongest monsters have some alien species that aren’t so powerful and useful. After multiple evolutions, some become redundant or even useless.

This is the result of natural evolution.

Only intelligent races would selectively integrate and combine alien species to maximize the utilization of each alien species.

And the alien species of this Shadow Demon Hound didn’t have an "*", indicating they were awakened, not artificially integrated.

He checked the other three Shadow Demon Hounds.

Although their strength was slightly lower and their alien species slightly different, they too were all very useful.

"This must be a special trait of the monsters from Black Ring Star," Ji Xinghuo pondered, "most of them are the results of biological experiments by the You Hui Clan, which after hundreds of years of fierce evolution, still retain traces of artificial intervention."

Just collecting the alien species from these four Shadow Demon Hounds was enough to perfect a "Shadow Blade" professional template.

Ji Xinghuo quickly finished the collection.

Then he continued on.

Before long, he sensed several lurking Giant Grey-pattern Spiders, casually shooting them down and harvesting their Spiritual Origin Ability.

Just like the Shadow Demon Hounds, these spiders’ alien species had a very high utilization rate.

And their bodies had developed mutations.

Shadow Demon Hounds, Giant Grey-pattern Spiders, Carrion Eaters, Burrowing seven-gilled worms, Fog Demons... The Branch Horn Cloud Deer ran hundreds of kilometers, Ji Xinghuo hunted along the way. Not a single monster could get within a hundred meters of him, all were shot in the head and killed.

Regardless of the monster, they all had mutations.

They also shared a common trait, that is, they were adept at stealth and camouflage, and liked to ambush their targets, which was also characteristic of the You Hui Clan.

The racial talent of the You Hui Clan is called "Dark Master," which allows their bodies to temporarily transform between reality and illusion to avoid attacks and hide their locations, making them natural stealth assassins.

As the You Hui Clan evolved, the Dark Master talent became stronger and stronger.

Eventually, the You Hui Clan integrated dark matter into their bodies, and by harnessing the omnipresent dark energy in the universe, they greatly increased their strength.

Their research in biotechnology was primarily in this direction.

After the entire clan was annihilated.

These monsters, adept at stealth and ambush, were able to survive in the drastically changing environment and defeat other monsters.

As for mutations...

As Ji Xinghuo approached the equator, his scanning goggles kept warning him of excessive radiation levels.

Over a thousand years ago, after the True Dragon Dynasty killed the Shepherd Star Saint of the You Hui Clan, they dropped tens of thousands of nuclear bombs directly on You Hui Star, destroying all its cities and blasting off a layer of the entire planet’s surface.

Even now, radiation remains, which is also the reason why the monsters of Black Ring Star keep mutating.

As it was nearing nighttime.

Ji Xinghuo arrived at the Scorch Mark Abyss located at the equator, an eye-spanning series of vast canyons, where meteors fell into, and it took a long while before the echo that seemed to come from hell could be heard.

He glanced at the Wanxiang Star Pupil interface.

Along the way, as the number of monsters progressively increased, he had harvested over 500 points of Spiritual Origin Ability.

Peering down into the canyon, Ji Xinghuo could sense a large number of monsters hiding below.

All of this was Spiritual Origin Ability!

Even a Fifth Rank Legendary led Hunting Team wouldn’t dare to easily venture into the bottom of the canyon, even the Heavenly King might face a near certain death.

Ji Xinghuo ordered, "Go down."

The Branch Horn Cloud Deer stood at the edge of the canyon, fearful in its eyes and trembling in its limbs, Ji Xinghuo urged it several times but it refused to move.

"Useless thing."

Ji Xinghuo looked helpless, though he actually didn’t need it, "You stay up here and wait, hide yourself well." After saying that, he flew up from the back of the Branch Horn Cloud Deer, and his body rapidly fell under gravity, quickly disappearing into the pitch-black abyss.
