Yun Xinghe swallowed hard. What he had just witnessed still lingered in his mind.

He couldn't think of any other star-level realm besides the realms where the five major royal cities were located that could withstand such a skeleton army.

Jiang Hao watched as the skeleton army leaped over the city walls, tapped his fingers in the air for a while, and refined several hundred mustard seed clones. Then he said, "This realm will probably be swept aside by the little skeletons soon. As for those teleportation arrays, let's leave them for now."

Yun Xinghe glanced at Jiang Hao and understood his thoughts. If the gnoll army wanted to retake this place, they would inevitably have to send more soldiers. The little skeleton could simply wait and see, then wipe them out completely and assimilate them into its own ranks.

If the Gnoll Empire eventually abandons this place, then Little Skeleton can lead his skeleton army through the teleportation array to invade other realms.

In this way, the pressure on the human race will be greatly reduced regardless of the circumstances.

Unexpectedly, even a summoned creature possesses such power. Yun Xinghe looked at Jiang Hao with eyes that seemed to regard him as a treasure.

Yun Xinghe had no objection. Jiang Hao had a thought, and Xiao Shi had already led everyone to their destination, Realm 9685.

Standing high above Realm 9685, Jiang Hao immediately realized he had chosen the wrong target. There was nothing unusual about this realm. Through Yun Xinghe's Heavenly Eye, Jiang Hao could see the entire realm. Apart from a human camp in the west, it was almost entirely inhabited by magical beasts.

Perhaps because the humans were at war with the gnolls, the camp gates were tightly shut, with only a few humans left to guard it. Outside the camp, from west to east and from south to north, countless magical beasts roamed the entire realm.

There was no sign of a regular human army, no mercenaries from any race, and no trace of ongoing warfare in the entire realm.

Through his sensing of the mustard seeds within this realm, Jiang Hao detected nothing unusual. After refining several hundred mustard seed clones, Jiang Hao immediately decided to travel to another suspicious target, realm 9352.

With a swift movement, Xiao Shi's body flashed, and Jiang Hao's vision blurred as the scenery changed.

Clanging and banging sounds came from all around. Jiang Hao realized that Xiao Shi was suffering great pain. Then, in a flash, Xiao Shi had already traversed upwards to a distance of over a hundred meters.

Jiang Hao then realized that Xiao Shi had relaxed.

Through his mustard seed perception, Jiang Hao could vaguely sense that the place where Xiao Shi had appeared was more than 10,000 meters above the ground. There were hundreds of mustard seeds there at that moment, moving like duckweed with the constantly swaying water.

It felt very similar to when Oron used spatial collapse in the Fifth Realm. The only difference was that these mustard seeds didn't disappear.

Jiang Hao could clearly confirm that those water ripples were spatial fluctuations.

Jiang Hao was immediately excited; they had come to the right place! At the same time, he was also a little scared. If they had encountered a spatial collapse, they would probably all have been wiped out by now.

Through Yun Xinghe's Heavenly Eye, Jiang Hao could see that not far from where Xiao Shi had just appeared, a beautiful butterfly with a bluish-purple body was constantly flapping its wings, and dozens of water ripples the size of washbasins were constantly forming and disappearing around it.

That butterfly was unlike any I'd ever seen before. It was completely transparent, seemingly without substance, and its bizarre colors appeared to be composed of strange, transparent rays of light. It looked breathtakingly beautiful, yet it possessed a deadly eeriness.

Jiang Hao's teammates had obviously spotted it as well, and they all held their breath, not daring to make the slightest move.

Jiang Hao was very curious: could such a monster really drop spatial skills?

With a wave of his staff, the palm-sized butterfly of light and shadow appeared beneath Jiang Hao's staff. Then, its body went limp, and the light and shadow around it vanished in an instant, revealing a white particle the size of a grain of rice.

The white granules were translucent, much like the spirit stones used to create teleportation arrays. However, they had strange, water-ripple-like patterns around them. It's unclear whether they were spirit stones that had come to life and transformed.

The white particles fell downwards, and Jiang Hao caught one with his outstretched hand. He then handed it to Li Duofu.

Jiang Hao's meaning was clear: if this item could drop skill books, and Li Duofu looted the corpse, then the drop rate would be doubled.

However, relying on Yun Xinghe's vision, Jiang Hao cleared out about half of the spatial butterflies in the sky, and Li Duofu still couldn't find a skill book.

Was the drop rate of skill books too low, or was he simply not doing it right? Jiang Hao decided to lead his team into the boundary surface.

Having learned from the previous experience, Jiang Hao dared not let Xiao Shi rush in headfirst. So he began to carefully sense the mustard seed-like fluctuations of this realm.

Jiang Hao then realized that this realm was very strange. The spatial structure of the entire realm was completely different from that of other realms.

In other realms, the spatial structure is relatively uniform. For example, in Realm 5, the movement of mustard seeds always follows a pattern. Even in Realm 5, where the Jackal King's capital is located, the space is slightly thinner than in other realms, and the mustard seeds move faster and lighter, but there are still patterns to be found.

In the very center of this realm, the space is incredibly dense, making even a mustard seed move very slowly, far less agile than in other realms. However, the space around the perimeter of this realm is quite thin, similar to that of the Fifth Realm.

This leads to a problem: all the mustard seeds in the entire realm have a slow tendency to move towards the center of the realm, as if there is a large vortex in the center of the realm that is constantly absorbing the surrounding space.

In Jiang Hao's perception, there was only one type of spatial creature in the entire realm: the spatial butterflies he had just killed in large numbers. The closer to the very center of the realm, the fewer spatial butterflies there were, but the stronger they became.

Jiang Hao could even sense that a butterfly, about the size of a human, flapped its wings, causing hundreds of spatial collapses within a kilometer radius, directly annihilating a large number of mustard seeds.

It seems that Oron's skill is what those giant butterflies drop.

To Jiang Hao's surprise, there were no gnoll soldiers in those densely packed areas, but he found a large number of gnolls at the easternmost edge of the domain.

There was even a camp built by gnolls there.

Jiang Hao wondered, what are they doing? The army hasn't set out after a whole day. Are they slacking off?

Jiang Hao felt that the edge of the area was where spatial butterflies were scarce and weak, making it a suitable place for everyone to enter. So, with a thought, Jiang Hao sent Little Shit to travel above the gnoll camp.
