Leaving home, Qin Hao quickly ascended into the sky and headed towards the East Sea.
The East Sea Naval Base had entered full alert, with radar and various detection equipment activated, continuously scanning for movement in the ocean, and satellites in the sky were focused on the coastline area.
However, for the Golden-Horned Beast moving from the deep sea, these methods were very limited, often only being able to detect it when it approached the coastline.
“Everyone, stay alert and report any anomalies at any time,” said the leading general with a very serious expression. At the same time, more than a dozen of China’s Member powerhouses from the base’s outer perimeter near the coastline were solemnly observing the coastline before them, their Black God Suits fully covering them, ready for battle at any moment.
Within each defensive base along China’s coastline, there were more than a dozen Members ready to engage at any time. Such a force shocked various powers. Such a large number of Member powerhouses was unmatched by any other power globally.
However, even so, everyone was prepared to sacrifice themselves at any time. After all, they were facing the Golden-Horned Beast, a powerful Starry Sky Behemoth that even Hong could not resolve.
“They’re here! Notify all Members, the Devouring Beast has arrived!”
As commands were relayed, the Members outside the base quickly ascended and flew towards the coastline, preparing to intercept the Golden-Horned Beast before it reached the shore.
“Our goal is to hold it back, to block the Golden-Horned Beast. Hong, Thunder God, and Member Jia Yi will arrive as quickly as possible,” said the leading Member. No one was willing to simply throw their lives away.
The purpose of the Members at each base was also very clear: to buy time. Using their numbers and Black God Suits, they would employ harassment tactics to restrict the Golden-Horned Beast’s movement.
After the Golden-Horned Beast approached the coastline, it constantly surveyed its surroundings. Seeing only a dozen small, non-threatening insects, it relaxed and quickly rushed onto the shore.
After several engagements, the Golden-Horned Beast had become much smarter, knowing that Hong and Thunder God posed a threat to it, while other humans simply couldn't stop it.
Rushing onto the shore, the Golden-Horned Beast quickly charged towards the base. Its objective was also very clear: to quickly obtain and devour metal to grow. This was almost its instinct, the instinct to grow.
Seeing the Golden-Horned Beast charging, the dozen Members attacked it one by one, each holding alloy spears, which they directly threw from a distance, targeting various parts of the Golden-Horned Beast.
“Bang, bang, bang” sounds of impact continuously rang out, as spears were deflected by the Golden-Horned Beast’s scales.
“Watch out!” With a command, everyone quickly moved from their positions. Subsequently, the Golden-Horned Beast’s massive tail swept across.
Even with prior preparation, several Members were still struck by the massive tail’s attack, flying backward, landing, spitting blood, and falling unconscious.
Though the remaining ten were somewhat shocked, they still chose to attack again, drawing the Golden-Horned Beast’s attention. Repeated attacks began to annoy the Golden-Horned Beast, which then charged towards the remaining ten.
Seeing this situation, the ten did not hesitate, scattering and flying in ten different directions. Although the Golden-Horned Beast was powerful and intelligent, it was still just a newborn, with limited strength and understanding of the world it could exert.
After several maneuvers, the ten lost a few more members, but they managed to stall the Golden-Horned Beast for several minutes.
“Roar!” The Golden-Horned Beast’s massive roar was filled with anger and impatience. A powerful golden light emanated, and its attack and speed rapidly increased as it charged towards the remaining few.
“Not good!” Before they could react, the Golden-Horned Beast had already arrived before them. After all, it was an Astral Rank Starry Sky Behemoth with an enhanced talent, catching them off guard.
The Golden-Horned Beast was like a child annoyed by an adult, now only capable of rampaging, but precisely because of this, it was even more dangerous.
“Am I going to die?” This was the thought in everyone’s mind, but they had no regrets. It must be said that although Jia Yi had distributed many resources, the people he chose were all very reliable, most of whom had extremely high loyalty to the country.
After departing from Yangzhou City, Qin Hao swiftly arrived at the East Sea coastline. The Golden-Horned Beast had already appeared on the coastline and was attacking several of China’s Members.
Qin Hao did not dare to hesitate in the slightest. His Space Domain unfolded, his speed abruptly increasing. At the same time, the explosive power of Fire Law was fully utilized, further boosting his speed. He directly transformed into a streak of fire, charging forward at extreme speed, appearing before the Golden-Horned Beast in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, the Golden-Horned Beast couldn't care less. Even the suddenly appearing little insect would not be spared. Its eyes gleamed with savagery, and the speed of its forward charge intensified.
“Mount Tai!”
Qin Hao’s Earth Domain unfolded, and his self-created technique, Mount Tai, was unleashed. His fist seemed to transform into a massive mountain, crushing towards the Golden-Horned Beast.
Both were Astral Rank, and both had 10-fold genes. Qin Hao didn't even need to use the power of Law, or even the power of Domain, to crush the Golden-Horned Beast.
However, to quickly resolve the battle and to avoid affecting the surrounding people, Qin Hao chose to unfold his Domain. Within the Domain, the Golden-Horned Beast seemed to sink into a swamp, its speed rapidly decreasing, stopping in place, unable to struggle.
Watching Qin Hao’s fist directly strike its massive head, a dizzying sensation made the Golden-Horned Beast involuntarily shake its head.
“Quite resilient,” he said, then delivered another punch, directly shattering all the Golden-Horned Beast’s scales, each one stained with blood.
The Golden-Horned Beast’s life aura also began to rapidly decline, but Qin Hao knew that the Golden-Horned Beast’s life core had not been destroyed, so it would not die; it could quickly recover with enough energy and metal.
Qin Hao did not intend to kill the Golden-Horned Beast; after all, this was Luo Feng’s opportunity, and he still planned to leave it for Luo Feng.
With his right hand spread open, a tiny world formed, enveloping the Golden-Horned Beast within it, then rapidly shrinking. This move was achieved by Qin Hao comprehending the power of Law, combined with One Thought Creates the World and the power of Domain.
However, the duration it could be maintained was very short and required continuous energy input. After receiving the Golden-Horned Beast into his palm, Qin Hao had already directly transferred it to the world ring, entrusting it to Gu’s care.
“It’s resolved?” Seeing Qin Hao resolve the Golden-Horned Beast so easily, everyone was extremely shocked. This was a Starry Sky Behemoth that even Hong, the world’s strongest, hadn’t been able to defeat, yet it was resolved by the young man before them.
