Qin Siyang's body swayed uncontrollably along with the trembling ground.
RUMBLE—
A loud, muffled sound came from beneath his feet.
It was as if a volcano was erupting underground.
At this moment, even the Ice Crystal Moth and the Corrosive Black Centipede stopped attacking.
Each retreated to the side, quietly waiting for something.
Just as Qin Siyang was searching for a stable footing,
the ground, already shattered from the Ice Crystal Moth's and Corrosive Black Centipede's attacks, suddenly cracked open.
Scorching lava gushed out from the fissures, forming a raging river of flames.
Molten rock, glowing orange-red, filled the air like the end of the world.
Accompanied by a deafening roar, a massive creature slowly rose from the depths.
Qin Siyang stared at the newly emerged gigantic god, his mouth wide open, momentarily forgetting to breathe.
In his shock, he even forgot to dodge, getting hit on the arm by a splash of magma.
Coming to his senses, he quickly slapped off the molten rock that clung to his Red Silk Armor.
Seeing that the Red Silk Armor had only darkened slightly and wasn't damaged, he let out a sigh of relief.
'This second-tier armor is finally proving useful.'
It couldn't withstand a medium-sized god's corrosive liquid attack.
It couldn't withstand a medium-sized god's ultra-low temperature hurricane. If it couldn't even resist ordinary lava, then it was truly useless.
But turning his head, he saw the god before him, far larger than the Corrosive Black Centipede and the Ice Crystal Moth combined, and sighed.
A gigantic crocodile emerged from the fissure, its four limbs stepping onto the magma-scorched ground.
Its eyes were like two blazing lava spheres, its broad head covered in deep-red lava patterns.
Its nostrils exhaled searing heat into the air, and between its sharp, jagged teeth, molten rock dripped down.
Its thick body resembled a living volcano, with several large molten rocks protruding from its spine.
At the end of its tail was a massive rock hammer, capable of smashing through the ground with a single swing.
Its powerful limbs were packed with bulging muscles, leaving deep footprints with each step, while searing lava oozed from its feet, scorching the ground.
The gigantic crocodile crawled toward Qin Siyang, its gaze locked onto him.
One medium-sized god, he couldn't deal with.
Two, he had no way to escape.
Three? Heh.
Wasn't this a guaranteed death sentence?
To make matters worse—
With the appearance of this crocodile god,
Qin Siyang's domain skill had completely ended.
The game of hide-and-seek was over.
He could no longer rely on teleportation to evade attacks.
From now on, for the next nine minutes, he could only rely on his own strength and agility to flee.
Nine minutes didn't sound long.
But earlier, relying on his domain ability to dodge continuously, he had barely survived for just one minute.
Nine minutes.
A time barely enough for a quick trip to the restroom,
but for Qin Siyang in this moment, it felt farther away than the edge of the universe.
Standing atop a magma-covered boulder, he looked utterly miserable.
It was over.
Now, even dodging had become incredibly difficult.
Qin Siyang let out a self-mocking chuckle.
By tomorrow, the safe zone could hold another funeral for him.
Even though he was surrounded by three powerful medium-sized gods, with no chance of survival, Qin Siyang still refused to give up.
Focusing intently, he leaped between the molten-covered rubble, trying his best to stay out of the giant crocodile's attack range.
At the same time, he pulled out his phone and snapped a picture of the massive crocodile.
He was hoping to find a slim chance of survival at this desperate moment.

[Lava Crocodile]
[Category: Medium-sized god]
[Lava Crocodiles are an extremely rare type of massive medium-sized god, with power exceeding most other medium-sized gods.]
[Their entire bodies are covered in thick molten lava scales, which are not only incredibly tough but also radiate extreme heat.]
[A Lava Crocodile can spew scorching lava from its mouth. This lava is far hotter than regular magma and can melt second-tier armor almost instantly. Even third-tier armor won't last more than half a minute.]
[With its powerful limbs, it can stomp the ground to create localized earthquakes. The resulting cracks will erupt with streams of molten lava, capable of melting anything in their path.]
[A Lava Crocodile's body is constantly enveloped in a layer of molten rock, beneath which lies an impenetrable layer of scales. Even fourth-tier armor, which can withstand extreme heat, cannot pierce its scales. It is both offensively and defensively perfect, with no weaknesses.]
[As stated, Lava Crocodiles have no weaknesses, which is why there has never been a recorded instance of one being slain by sequence abilities in the safe zone. Countless researchers hope to obtain Lava Crocodile materials for study due to their enormous research potential.]
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
'Great.'
'Another medium-sized god that no one has ever killed.'
'Even more absurd than the Ice Crystal Moth.'
'At least the Ice Crystal Moth had a suspected weak point.'
'But the Lava Crocodile?'
'Directly stating: [No weaknesses.]'
'How the hell am I supposed to kill something with no weaknesses?'
'Well, it makes sense. No one has ever killed one before'.
'And "research potential" is just nonsense at this point.'
Qin Siyang had no energy left to complain.
After quickly reading through the Lava Crocodile's details, he shoved his phone back into his pocket.
He focused entirely on finding a safe escape route.
Behind him, the Lava Crocodile was spewing lava at him in pursuit.
Qin Siyang had to keep jumping non-stop just to barely dodge its attacks.
Perhaps due to its massive size and the weight of its molten scales, the Lava Crocodile's movement speed was much slower than the Corrosive Black Centipede's.
Without his domain ability, Qin Siyang could only rely on the [Violence] enhancement to his body, continuously leaping to evade, somehow managing to put more and more distance between himself and the Lava Crocodile.
As he saw the ground ahead gradually narrowing, his hope reignited.
Maybe he could escape.
With a leap, he was about to leave the magma-covered rubble zone. But just as he felt a moment of relief, a bone-chilling cold suddenly gripped him.
Looking up—
The Ice Crystal Moth was waiting for him ahead.
On the other side, the Corrosive Black Centipede blocked the remaining exit.
Qin Siyang's heart sank in shock.
He had assumed that the Ice Crystal Moth and Corrosive Black Centipede had backed off out of fear of the Lava Crocodile.
But no—
They had been waiting for an opportunity to strike, joining forces with the Lava Crocodile to corner him.
Above, the Ice Crystal Moth flapped its wings, unleashing a violent storm.
And the hurricane's target—
was precisely where Qin Siyang was about to land.
Qin Siyang tensed up.
If he continued his descent, he would be swept directly into the Ice Crystal Moth's storm.
His second-tier armor couldn't withstand the Ice Crystal Moth's ultra-low temperature hurricane.
If he took that hit, he would be crippled—if not dead.
But the other direction wasn't any better.
The Corrosive Black Centipede was continuously spewing green smoke, his second-tier armor wouldn't last against that either.
He knew all too well. If he got injured, the three medium-sized gods would tear him apart.
Yet, mid-air, with only two possible landing spots, both led to certain death.
