The ravine was extremely deep. It looked like a huge maw on the ground’s surface, a black hole that could devour everything.

　　Earth Crater Giant Ravine!

　　This was the largest ravine on the Blackmetal Planet. Its depth was over 30,000 meters, incomparably deep.

　　Although it was currently day time, everything in the ravine was shrouded by darkness. One wouldn’t even be able to see their fingers if they stretched out their hands.

　　This was the largest nest of cave dwellers on Blackmetal Planet.

　　Cave dwellers were subterranean biological creatures. They hated the light and the deeper they stayed inside the ravine, the higher their status would be.

　　Undoubtedly, the chieftains would surely live right at the bottom.

　　“To catch thieves, one has to catch their head first!”

　　Time was limited and so no delays were permitted.

　　Feng Lin was still using his Cloudsoar and directly entered the ravine.

　　Swish~

　　Very soon, Donghuang Taichu and Augustus also arrived.

　　The sound of sonic booms accompanied their arrival, causing a commotion that shook the entire space below.

　　Su, su, su~

　　Sounds of four-limbed creatures moving could be heard.

　　Feng Lin glanced at the surroundings only to see that the interior of the underground cave was like a beehive. It was densely packed and filled with small openings where countless beings were rushing out from them.

　　After observing closely, he discovered that they were humanoid monsters. They had anti-joints and a total of six hands and feet and were hanging upside down like spiders.

　　Their heads were black and had no hair. Their eyes were compound eyes like flies, staring over at Feng Lin and the other two. Drool dripped from their mouths as greed flickered in their faces. It was as though humans were great sources of nutrition for them. The sight of them would cause people to tremble in fear.

　　However, Feng Lin and the other two didn’t bother with them. They moved in a straight line and continued descending. No one was willing to fall behind.

　　The first person who could kill a chieftain would undoubtedly be the number one.

　　The number one would gain 100,000 contribution points and 1,000 academic points while the number two would only gain 20,000 contribution points and 200 academic points; what the number two got would only be one-fifth of the number one.

　　And as the ranking fell, the rewards grew much lesser as well.

　　Obviously, the number one rank had the most value.

　　Also, regardless of Donghuang Taichu or Augustus, both were top geniuses. How could they give up on the first ranking?

　　It was impossible.

　　The three of them were filled with a competitive spirit, leaving the other freshmen far behind their dust.

　　ROAR~

　　Upon seeing the three uninvited guests entering their nest, the cave dwellers were all alarmed.

　　Pu, pu, pu~

　　Black silhouettes flashed past the cave wall. They were like bats and flew over en masse.

　　The cave dwellers flying together actually looked like a black-colored ocean tide wanting to submerge them.

　　“Golden Crow True Fire!” At this moment Donghuang Taichu acted. His body gleamed with golden flames, and the boundless heat wanted to incinerate everything in the world. He manifested a fireball over ten-meters big and tossed it over.

　　Chi, chi, chi~

　　Those monsters were instantly disintegrated the moment they came in contact with the fire.

　　True fire, it was another source of true fire again!

　　Feng Lin himself possessed the Earthfiend True Fire. How could he not be able to recognize the fireball Donghuang Taichu had manifested? However, it was actually the extremely rare Golden Crow True Fire, said to be the number one in terms of firepower among true fires. It could incinerate anything in the world.

　　Angelic Holy Light!

　　At this moment, Augustus wasn’t willing to lose out. Under the besiegement, he unleashed a powerful technique.

　　His four wings spread open, radiating boundless holy light. The rays of light were like sharp swords shooting outwards.

　　Those monsters were instantly torn into a thousand bits, becoming shredded meat.

　　With the two of them at the center, their surroundings became an absolute-kill zone. No matter how many cave dwellers rushed over, all of them died miserably.

　　Monkey King Domain!

　　The place where he established dominance was the Flowerfruit Mountain.

　　This was also the first time Feng Lin unleashed the combat strength of a grand cultivator. The Heart Monkey Force was stimulated to the extreme, permeating the atmosphere.

　　His ability didn’t seem as majestic as the other two when viewed from afar. But when the cave dwellers rushed over and entered the boundary of the domain, fire rose, cloud surged, ice froze, thunder strike…all sorts of elemental powers blasted at them.

　　The cave dwellers died in agony.

　　It seemed that Feng Lin could casually control any type of energy depending on his intention.

　　This was also why the spiritual stone monkey was proficient in transformation.

　　Although the appearance of his domain wasn’t flashy, it was much more effective compared to the abilities of those two.

　　Jijiguaguawula…

　　The cave dwellers began to shriek. They were wielding black-colored metallic tubes in their hands.

　　Bang, bang, bang!

　　A bright light erupted as flames were emitted from the metallic tubes.

　　Since the cave dwellers were considered an alien race, they naturally had their own civilization. If not, they would only be called alien lifeforms.

　　These cave dwellers now took out gunpowder technology.

　　Also, these didn’t seem to be ordinary gunpowder.

　　It was unknown what was the composition of the metal bullets. However, they were as dense as rain and exuded coldness, ruthlessly bombarding Feng Lin and the other two.

　　With many ants biting an elephant, the elephant would die in the end as well!

　　These metal bullets slammed into the micro-mecha armor, and the powerful force of the impact caused the three of them to tremble as their genetic force was consumed.

　　Feng Lin and the other two didn’t plan to waste their time with these minions. They displayed their might, sending out an energy wave that created a huge crater and burying these cave dwellers.

　　The deeper they went, the more cave dwellers came out.

　　It was like they had entered a hornet’s nest. The countless inhabitants of the nest gushed forth like the tides in response to their invasion.

　　These cave dwellers in the inner parts were different from those from outside. They actually had eight limbs. Four were used for climbing while the other four brandished weapons as they rushed over, exuding a baleful air resembling valiant warriors.

　　The weapons in their hands were forged from strange metals. They were incomparably tough and weren’t afraid of energy attacks damaging them.

　　Donghua Taichu’s fire and Augustus’s holy light instantly lost a great deal of their effect. They then decided to attack physically. One of them wielded a long spear while the other brandished a giant sword with a gemstone inlay on the pommel, killing their way into the cave dwellers.

　　Wu, wu, wu~

　　The sounds of a metal cudgel hitting objects rang out constantly.

　　Feng Lin wielded his weapon to great effect. He unleashed his cudgel arts, drawing impenetrable circles in the air, unleashing his full strength.

　　The moment those cave dwellers got near, they were instantly crushed into pieces.

　　But this place was one of the nests of this alien race, their numbers were almost endless.

　　They entered into the depths of this nest and it seemed to them that there were countless enemies. The number of enemies didn’t seem to have dwindled at all.

　　“KILL! Rush into this nest to kill the chieftain!” At this moment, excited voices rang out from outside the nest. An energy ball fell from the sky like a shooting star, as numerous figures rushed within,

　　Those freshmen that lagged behind finally arrived.

　　With the addition of the other freshmen, the pressure on Feng Lin and the two others were greatly alleviated.

　　Go!

　　Feng Lin instantly rushed toward the depths.

　　Donghuang Taichu and Augustus were no fools. They upped their speed and chased after Feng Lin, not allowing him to gain any advantage.

　　By logic, the deeper they entered, the more terrifying would the cave dwellers be.

　　Feng Lin and the two others continued slaughtering a path out, each displaying their abilities and advancing forward courageously.

　　After they descended for over 20,000 meters, their surroundings suddenly became empty. The cave dwellers couldn’t be seen anymore.

　　This place was like an abandoned ground.

　　Feng Lin and the other two weren’t joyful but were alarmed instead. They felt a deep, evil coldness from the depths of the pit. It seemed like an evil existence was gradually awakening.

　　Zng, zng, zng~

　　A bright light flashed as eight green beams suddenly lit up in the darkness. These green beams of light moved about, filled with vengeful intent. They stared at Feng Lin, Donghuang Taichu, and Augustus.

　　Those were…

　　Eyes!

　　The earth trembled as a gigantic black shadow scuttled on the ground, revealing its malevolent face.
