As soon as Luo Yuan left Hope City, he quickly flew up to the sky and accelerated to the maximum speed he could muster. As he flew out of the reconstruction area, he activated the space-time bubble.
As soon as the bubble was formed, Luo Yuan seemed to have lost his speed, inertia, and gravity. He hovered in the air and began to move slowly. His speed was getting faster and faster. After about 10 minutes, he flew across the sky like a stream of light and disappeared into the horizon.
As he flew in the space-time bubble, he became more experienced and had a better understanding of space.
Aside from the mysteries of space and four-dimensional space, basic mechanics, especially fluid mechanics, were still applicable to space. Luo Yuan's own knowledge was enough to improve this magical way of flying and he even discovered some unique techniques during the flight.
The most obvious point was that the activation efficiency of his space-time bubble had increased. It used to take half a minute to activate in the beginning, but now, it only took seven to eight seconds for the space-time bubble to form.
Although the speed was still very slow, it was still far from the perfect state of telekinesis. He might never be able to achieve that.
However, as his Will continued to grow stronger, the activation speed would increase until it reached two seconds, which was the time limit of his prediction. By then, Luo Yuan would have nothing to fear.
Not only could the space-time bubble propel an object forward at an extremely fast speed, it was also a perfect defense during a crisis. It was basically an independent space that was semi-detached from the three-dimensional world. Although it seemed to be right in front of him, it was actually separated by a dimension. With the uniqueness of space, as long as there was no extreme attack such as a strong gravitational force or a high-density energy that could interfere with the fluctuation of space, normal missiles or meteorites would not be able to penetrate the space. Of course, Luo Yuan who was in the space would not be able to attack the outside.
…
The forest was still dark. He had woken up earlier today, so he had set off at three o 'clock. It was not even half past three, and this was the time when most of the predators were the most active. The roars of various mutated beasts could be heard one after another, and the whole forest seemed to be filled with endless danger.
However, as one of the predators that was stronger than the mutated beasts, Luo Yuan was not afraid at all. He was like a shadow, shuttling through the forest quickly, looking for level seven mutated beasts. Occasionally, there would be some stupid mutated beasts that blocked his way. In a blink of an eye, they were killed by his sword.
Luo Yuan searched around and soon found the target he was looking for.
It was a terrifying giant python with shining scales of gold and silver, which appeared dazzling in the darkness. Its three-meter-thick body was like a curved wall, half-curled up, and its whole body was like a huge mountain of meat.
A huge mouth that was obviously different from that of a snake was lazily leaning against the pile of meat. A pair of golden eyes were shining brightly, causing people to feel intimidated.
Judging from its bulging belly, it had already finished its hunt.
This giant snake seemed to be poisonous. At this moment, droplets of saliva were constantly dripping from its giant mouth. When they landed on the ground, the ground quickly corroded and emitted green smoke, turning into a pool of pus.
Luo Yuan was a little hesitant. It was not because it was poisonous. With his Physique, he would be fine as long as he did not come into contact with the venom. Besides, there were quite a lot of insects and ants around, so the poison in the air was not that strong.
What made Luo Yuan hesitant was that most of these creatures had a strong vitality and a long body. This meant that unless the creature's fatal weakness was attacked, the effect of the Earth Geyser would not be fatal. Once it was angered, it would be a tough battle.
Of course, Luo Yuan knew the weaknesses of snakes. One was its head, and the other was its heart.
It was easy to find the head, but it was on top of the mountain of meat. Obviously, the Earth Fountain would not be able to attack it. Even if it did, it would only anger it.
The heart, on the other hand, was difficult to find. It was such a huge snake, so only God knew where its heart was. The saying 'to hit a snake where it hurts' did not apply to such a huge creature.
Although he could easily deal with level seven mutated beasts, it did not mean that creatures of this level were not a threat to him. He just had the advantage of his Foresight and the Earth Fountain, which were long-range attacks.
Without these two abilities, it was hard to say who would win if he were to fight it head-on. Most creatures of this level had unique and terrifying abilities. If he was hit, even someone as strong as him would die on the spot.
However, it was not easy for him to find a level seven mutated beast. He was not willing to leave just like that.
Luo Yuan made up his mind and decided to take the risk. With his Foresight, he should be safe as long as he was careful.
He was not a decisive person, but once he made up his mind, he did not hesitate anymore. He approached the giant snake step by step, and his heartbeat slowed down as he entered the Earth Pulse mode.
The biggest advantage of hunting far away from the Reconstruction Area was that those gigantic mutated beasts rarely cared about humans and did not know how dangerous humans could be. In their eyes, humans were no different from those insignificant, low-level lifeforms. Eating humans was just a waste of time.
He got close to the giant snake without a hitch. Looking at the image displayed in his foresight, his expression changed slightly, and he retreated another hundred meters. This giant snake was much stronger than ordinary level seven mutated beasts. It had probably evolved to the edge of level eight. In the image of his foresight, once its ability was unleashed, it would be surrounded by a strong destructive force field. He could not even get close to it.
Luo Yuan noticed that there was a big tree nearby. His eyes lit up and he quickly hid behind it.
This tree was quite large, with a trunk that was more than ten meters thick. Even in the vicinity, it stood out like a crane among chickens. Its bark was covered in moss and vines, and there were even some shrubs and small trees growing on its trunk. It almost formed an independent ecosphere, and its level was at least Level 6.
Luo Yuan looked at his foresight again and felt relieved.
Then, he lifted it up forcefully and slammed it down heavily. The next moment, the giant snake's body shook, and a section of it suddenly swelled up. Countless blood-streaked scales shook at a high frequency and instantly separated from its body, splattering everywhere.
"Ouch!" The giant snake let out a beast-like roar. Its huge upper body raised its head, causing the air to whistle violently. For a moment, the surrounding sand and pebbles were flying, and the wind was howling.
Its body flickered with a bright and dark light, emitting a heart-palpitating aura. Large amounts of them were crushed by an invisible force before they could even land. Even a large tree beside it began to rapidly disintegrate as if it was weathered. The lower half of the tree turned into a pile of dust and fell with a loud bang.
Even the rocks could not withstand such a terrifying force and quickly disappeared. A large amount of dust filled the air, making it look vague as if it was shrouded in a layer of fog.
A pair of eyes that were as cruel as lanterns looked around, and its scarlet tongue kept flicking in and out. Although it was murderous and angry, it could not find the culprit.
At this moment, Luo Yuan was about 300 to 400 meters away from the giant snake. Such a distance was enough to ensure that he was not affected by the destructive force field.
Being small had its advantages. If it was a giant creature, no matter how well it hid, it would be impossible for it not to notice. Now, even if it saw him, it would probably be ignored because of the size of a human.
Then, another Earth Fountain was released.
The intense pain immediately caused its body to roll around crazily. Its body, which was hundreds of meters long, twisted and tangled with each other. The nearby trees were continuously knocked down by it and fell with a loud rumble.
Its range of movement was large, and it rolled out of Luo Yuan's attack range from time to time. In the end, he had to show himself and chase after the giant snake, releasing the Earth Fountain. However, the giant snake could not care less about Luo Yuan. The intense pain had overwhelmed its rationality, and it could only keep rolling around.
As Luo Yuan continued to release the Earth Fountain, the struggle of the giant snake became weaker and weaker.
After a minute, it was already on the verge of death, and its head was powerless.
Finally, Luo Yuan aimed at its head and hit it hard. It shook its head and struggled for a while, but it could no longer move. Luo Yuan exited the state of the Earth Pulse, dashed towards it, and decapitated it with his sword.
There was a sweet smell around the snake's head. If Luo Yuan's Physique was not strong, he would have fainted just from the smell. Even if he was fine, it would not do him any good to smell it too much. He looked at the snake's head, which was still dripping with saliva, and kicked the head, which weighed a few tons, ten meters away.
Next, Luo Yuan cut open its skin and took out its heart.
At this moment, the heart had been completely shattered into pieces. Luo Yuan found an energy crystal the size of a thumb from the pile of flesh. Fortunately, the energy crystal was not broken.
The energy crystal was somewhat transparent, and it was similar to the energy crystal of a level eight creature. At the same time, it was much bigger than a normal level seven crystal. In comparison, it was a giant.
One could imagine that the strength of this giant snake when it was alive was definitely quite shocking among the level seven creatures. Unfortunately, it had no place to use its strength, and it had died sullenly.
Luo Yuan looked at it curiously for a while, and then he stuffed it into his mouth.
As his body heated up for a while, the heat quickly subsided. The entire energy crystal had been absorbed, and Luo Yuan noticed that the level eight energy crystal in his heart had visibly grown bigger.
Compared to when he had just consumed the level eight energy crystal, the crystal had doubled in size.
He could not help but look forward to it. If the crystal continued to grow, he wondered what kind of changes it would undergo.
Suddenly, a system notification popped up in Luo Yuan's mind, "Level D + Mission: Kill the Devil Python has been completed. Time taken: 5 minutes. Mission Evaluation: Perfect!"
"Basic Experience Points Reward: 39200!"
"Evaluation: Good, Experience Points + 39200!"
"You have leveled up. You have been rewarded 1 Attribute Point and 5 Skill Points. You are now level 12."
"Your energy and injuries will be recovered!"
Finally, he had leveled up.
Luo Yuan was happy, and immediately opened the attributes panel.

…
He looked at the extra attribute points and thought for a while. Then, he added them to his Will.
Suddenly, he felt like he had been struck by lightning. His mind went blank, but it was only for a moment before he recovered.
He immediately felt different. At this moment, he felt that his mind was clear. His originally turbulent thoughts suddenly calmed down and disappeared without a trace. Even the various desires of his body were suppressed in a corner, unable to disturb his thoughts in the slightest.
At the same time, a mysterious and powerful force was surging in his heart, as if it could burst out at any time.
Luo Yuan knew that it was the power of his Will.
He looked at the big tree next to him and waved his hand. In an instant, a huge bolt of lightning struck the big tree. For a moment, lightning flashed, and arcs of light jumped. The low-level mutated beast that was perched on the tree had just escaped a calamity, but now, it had attracted an unexpected disaster.
A large number of low-level mutated beasts were struck by the lightning and fell to the ground like dumplings. Their carcasses were smoking, and even the bark of the tree was burnt for a while before it slowly extinguished. The surface of the tree was burnt black.
He looked at the carcass of the giant snake. This time, he did not move, but the ground was suddenly engulfed in flames. It could even be called a sea of fire. The sea of fire covered a radius of a hundred meters, and one-third of the carcass was completely engulfed.
The flames were white, and the temperature was at least 1,000 degrees Celsius. Even though he was five to six meters away, Luo Yuan could still feel the heat. Not long after, the flames suddenly disappeared without a trace, and were replaced by a wave of extreme cold.
The carcass of the snake, which was still smoking, was quickly covered with frost.
Half a minute later, the entire carcass of the snake was frozen into a hard ball. Luo Yuan went forward to touch it, and it was unusually sticky. In less than half a second, the surface of the skin was firmly stuck. Luckily, his skin was tough, and if it was an ordinary person, a layer of skin would have been torn off.
He kicked the carcass of the snake, and the entire giant snake was suddenly kicked into two. Of course, the reason why it was so easy to break was not only because it was frozen, but also because the ability of the carcass of the snake had faded after it was dead.
He could clearly feel the strength of his Will. With a 19-point Will, it was no longer a subordinate. Even in terms of pure power, it was enough to crush most of the super evolved humans.
This time, he did not add points to Agility, nor did he add them to the lowest attribute, Intelligence. Instead, he added them to the newly upgraded Will. Of course, Luo Yuan had his own considerations.
Now that his strength had reached such a level, especially after he had unlocked the fourth dimension, he felt the importance of Will. The importance of Will had gradually surpassed all other attributes.
Whether it was the speed of the space-time bubble or his main defense, they were closely related to Will. Especially now that the extraterrestrial civilization was sharpening their swords in space and the reconstruction area was in danger, the importance of the space-time bubble had been raised to the top. In the vast space, even in the solar system, the speed of the first universe was far from enough. He had to have a faster speed to fly into space and find the spaceship before his physical strength was exhausted.
As for the other attributes, he had some ideas about it. It was also related to Will. If it was successful, his Flesh (Harmony) attribute would increase rapidly.
However, it was a cruel and bloody task. He had to get the approval from the higher-ups and the cooperation from the relevant laboratories.
…
Luo Yuan then went around looking for level seven mutated beasts. Unfortunately, after searching for a long time, he did not get a single mission. In the end, Luo Yuan killed a giant beast that he suspected to be a level seven mutated beast. After identifying it, he realized that a level seven mutated beast could no longer trigger a mission.
Unless he went to look for a level eight mutated beast, the system would no longer provide him with Experience Points.
Luo Yuan looked regretful. The joy of leveling up had dissipated by half. With his current strength, fighting a level eight mutated beast was simply asking for death. When he thought about the Demonic Horseman, he could feel the difference in strength. Even though his strength was a few times stronger than before, he did not have the confidence to fight such a mutated beast.
