Starting from primitive world, building the strongest divine kingdom - Chapter 258

Chapter 258: Chapter258:New World
“Whoosh.”

Enzo’s body plummeted from the high sky.

The sound of rushing wind filled his ears.

Realizing he was falling, Enzo’s expression changed, and he quickly used instant teleportation to shift to the top of a tall mountain peak. Only when he stood firmly on the summit did he let out a sigh of relief.

“Damn it!”

“Why would the Starry Sky teleportation array have such a problem? It didn’t send me to the dark corridor but to this strange place. I wonder where this is…”

Enzo muttered to himself, then looked into the distance.

Upon seeing the landscape before him, he couldn’t help but gasp. Below him stretched an endless expanse of majestic mountains and forests. From Enzo’s estimation, this ancient forest covered at least a hundred kilometers. In the far distance, he could faintly see some tiny shapes. Those were the silhouettes of cities.

After observing for a moment, Enzo withdrew his gaze.

He summoned his Flame Wings behind him and leaped down toward the area below the mountain.

Like a crimson meteor falling from the sky, he descended into the forest below. The fiery shockwave erupted, causing branches to snap and even cracking the ground into a spiderweb of fissures.

As Enzo landed on the decaying leaves, his expression changed once more.

“This world is off. The air is permeated with such dense elemental power, and the gravity here is several times stronger than in the Disaster World. This means that those living in this world are likely much stronger…”

Sensing the differences in the world, Enzo’s mind raced.

At the same time, he was astonished to discover another phenomenon, muttering to himself, “The elemental energy in the air seems to be emanating from some special source, making my body feel like it’s gradually becoming stronger.”

This realization left Enzo incredibly surprised.

Just then…

Not far from Enzo, a thick, twisted tree, needing more than twenty people to embrace it, was coiled by a green serpent. Strangely, the serpent had a human face on its head, with no nose, only eyes and a mouth. It was peering through the tangled branches, watching Enzo from afar.

“Hiss!”

A piercing sound filled Enzo’s ears as the terrifying serpent monster suddenly lunged at him, its human-faced head wide open, ready to swallow him whole.

Enzo turned, his gaze sharp as a knife, locking onto the ferocious creature.

This monster was at least twenty stories high, making Enzo appear tiny in comparison. However, at that moment, as Enzo stared at it, a look of fear flickered across the monster’s face.

“Hmph, seeking death!”

Enzo scoffed.

Boom!

In an instant, the creature lost all strength in mid-air, crashing into the thick trunk and branches of the nearby tree, before hitting the ground with a heavy thud. The massive serpent’s body landed with a thud, and a stream of sickly green blood oozed from its human face, lying motionless.

“Only at Level 6, and yet it dared to ambush me. But what is this creature, so massive yet devoid of any intelligence?” Enzo mused to himself. He crouched down to examine the monster more closely and discovered a green crystal within its head.

“What is this?”

Enzo picked up the green crystal, feeling a twinge of curiosity.

He couldn’t sense any elemental energy fluctuations from the crystal, but his body instinctively wanted to absorb it, which struck Enzo as strange. To be safe, he decided not to consume it and instead stored the green crystal away, thinking, “This might be of great use. I should collect more.”

“However, the immediate priority is to find intelligent beings living in this world.”

“I need to gather information about this place from them, then find a way to continue my advancement to Level 9 or even deity level, and finally leave this world to seek a solution for Elemental Tides…”

With these thoughts in mind, Enzo stood up and started walking toward the distance.

…

Meanwhile.

On the edge of the forest, a team was making its way forward.

“Young Master, since this is your first time in Fierce Beast Forest, don’t be careless. Just stick to the outskirts, take down some of the outer Fierce Beasts to practice your skills.” said a burly man in the team, standing about 1.8 meters tall. His arms were so thick they rivaled the legs of a mammoth, and his face was covered in a wild beard that looked like it had been stabbed with knives. His brown eyes glimmered with a piercing intensity as he spoke in the local dialect.

“Mr Rennes, with you around, what’s there to worry about?”

In the team, a young boy dressed in silver armor, with purple runes on his forehead, said with a cheerful smile.

He casually held a black bow in one hand, while a quiver of arrows was slung over his shoulder.

The burly man couldn’t help but smile, but suddenly he sniffed the air and his expression changed slightly. He lowered his voice, “Everyone be careful. We must be in the territory of the Fierce Beast Poison Fang Beast.”

“Poison Fang Beast!”

The expressions of the other guards in the team turned serious, but they still remained relaxed. It was a well-known saying in the Fierce Beast world that one must never underestimate any kind of Fierce Beast. However, they all understood that the Poison Fang Beast was not particularly formidable. As long as they stayed cautious, hunting it would be easy.

“Leave the Poison Fang Beast to me!” The boy exclaimed excitedly.

“Young Master.” Rennes frowned.

“It’s fine.” The boy had already taken an arrow from his quiver and nocked it on the black bow, ready to shoot at any moment.

The team proceeded cautiously.

After a while.

As they parted the foliage to move forward, they caught sight of a young man dressed in blood-red armor, sitting by the lake without any weapons, leisurely eating roasted meat. At that moment, a large gray shadow suddenly shot in from the distance, startling the entire team.

The young man by the lake seemed to sense something. He turned his head, staring foolishly at the approaching gray shadow.

“Watch out!”

The small team watched this scene unfold, and many of the guards thought that the young man foolishly wandering into the Fierce Beast forest was clearly inexperienced. Otherwise, how could he be staring at the approaching Poison Fang Beast so obliviously?

A true warrior would have reacted immediately.

“That’s a Level 7 Poison Fang Beast!” Rennes shouted.

“Whoosh!”

A black light streaked through the air and struck the gray shadow, causing it to emit a painful cry as it quickly fell to the ground. It was a bizarre creature with a huge head adorned with wings, and its limbs were incredibly short, resembling a ball. Its teeth were sharp, exuding a noxious green gas.

At that moment, one of its eyes was pierced by an arrow, and dark green blood was oozing out.

As soon as it hit the ground, the Poison Fang Beast screeched angrily and charged toward the team.

The silver-armored boy’s expression turned serious. The purple runes on his forehead glimmered faintly as he swiftly nocked another arrow and pulled back the bowstring again. However, this time, the Poison Fang Beast, already prepared, twisted in mid-air to dodge easily, then spat out a stream of venom, corroding the arrow mid-flight.

“Young Master, be careful!”

At that moment, the burly man named Rennes unsheathed two axes from his waist, his arms swelling with strength.

He then swung the axes down toward the Poison Fang Beast.

Boom!

A curved blade of energy appeared in the air, slicing through the Poison Fang Beast’s body.

As the arc dissipated, Rennes’ figure reappeared several dozen meters behind the Poison Fang Beast.

The Poison Fang Beast’s body fell from the air, split in two by the sharp axe, and dark green blood spilled onto the ground, releasing a foul stench.

“Mr Rennes, you’re amazing! You killed the Poison Fang Beast so easily!”

The silver-armored boy clapped his hands, visibly excited.

“Don’t be careless in the future. The Poison Fang Beast has two main attacks: its poisonous fangs and its toxic gas. This one was already at Level 7. If it had gotten close enough to release its poison, it would have been a huge problem.” The burly man, Rennes, admonished, instructing the other guards to gather materials from the Fierce Beast.

“Yes!” The other guards quickly went to collect the materials, smiling.

The silver-armored boy walked over to Enzo, the red-armored youth, and greeted him with an air of familiarity, “Hey there, brother! Where are you from? Are you here to hunt Fierce Beasts too?”

At this moment, the silver-armored youth felt a unique thrill from saving someone.

In his eyes, if it weren’t for his arrow, the young man in the blood-red armor would likely have met his demise.

Enzo looked at the young man and nodded slightly. “Thanks.”

That Poison Fang Beast was only at Level 7, and Enzo had already sensed its ambush. He had been ready to take it down with a single punch, but this warm-hearted silver-armored boy had intervened.

Still, this aligned with Enzo’s goals.

This boy was clearly from this world and seemed quite genuine. Conversing with him shouldn’t be an issue.

With that thought, Enzo began to feel a bit more hopeful about this world.

Moments later.

At the invitation of the silver-armored youth, Enzo set off with the small team, leaving the ancient forest behind.

Along the way, Enzo thanked them again, saying, “Sorry for the trouble.”

“No trouble at all! It’s a good opportunity for me to practice my skills, and we’re safer together.” the silver-armored youth replied, clearly excited. In his heart, he thought that this naïve young man clearly had little experience. Venturing out alone could easily lead to disaster. Since he was heading back anyway, he might as well take him to the city.

“The feeling of saving someone is really nice.” the silver-armored youth mused.

“Ah, I haven’t introduced myself yet. My name is Anarion. What about you?” The silver-armored youth smiled at Enzo.
