Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.

The three stones that had been surrounding the Earth-Suppressing Beast fell to the ground, trembling violently. The tiny stone scales covering them slowly peeled away, revealing three jet-black spheres emitting a dark glow. These spheres then floated into the air, spinning continuously and drawing ever closer. As the spheres spun and approached, dust in the air, gravel on the ground, and even the remaining stone scales from the Earth-Suppressing Beast were all drawn into the air by the spheres, creating a dust storm within the cave. The swirling debris struck the remaining members of the Martial Arts Division, turning the uninjured into the lightly injured, the lightly injured into the seriously injured, and those lying on the ground were directly pierced by the stones, dying instantly.

As the various stones and dust scattered in the air gradually gathered and converged, a blinding light burst forth in mid-air, so bright that people couldn't open their eyes. The Earth-Suppressing Beast was also forced to pause its movements. After the light dissipated, a still black sphere appeared in mid-air, its surface carved with countless patterns. The sphere slowly landed between the Earth-Suppressing Beast's two horns, as if placing a crown on its head. At this moment, the Earth-Suppressing Beast had shed all its stone scales, revealing its original body.

It was entirely black, covered in fine black scales, and its four feet had sharp claws that seemed capable of easily tearing apart anything. Its mouth was full of fangs, and it seemed to have been reborn, moving faster and attacking more fiercely than before. It exhaled a cloud of smoke and then began its killing spree, killing all the members of the Martial Division. When the smoke cleared, only the seven main attackers and the Earth-Suppressing Beast remained in the cave.

Seven people faced off against a beast, but the humans seemed to have no chance of winning. The earth-suppressing beast prepared its formation, pointing its two horns at the seven people. The sphere between the two horns flashed with light, and a tremor of earth struck the seven people. At this moment, it was as if the earth had come alive. The ground began to undulate and crack in steps, and waves of invisible energy came, forcing the seven people into a dead end. One of the seven, the squad leader, released earth elemental energy and built a stone wall in front of them, trying to block the surging earth waves, but it was all in vain.

The stone wall shattered instantly in the face of the earth's tremors, and the seven people behind it were once again knocked away. Because they were too close to the stone wall, the damage was greatly increased, and the remaining four captains were killed on the spot. Jin Huage, Zhou Tianwu, and Locke were unable to stand up for a while.

Seeing that he was about to die, Jin Huage was also ready to fight to the death. The three of them exchanged glances, struggled to their feet, and used all the elemental power of the backup device. It was still the combined power of the three fire elements. If the earth element is the hardest shield, then the fire element is the sharpest spear.

The three of them combined their strength, and this time the amount of elemental energy far exceeded that of before. It could be a last-ditch effort, or it could be their strongest attack. In any case, their fate would depend on this all-out strike.

A fire elemental array was drawn on the ground. Once the array was complete, raging flames surged from within, gradually coalescing into a fire giant. The fire giant held a long sword in its hand, the blade of which was bright red, as if all the power of the flames was concentrated in the blade. In the next instant, it raised the sword and slashed at the earth-suppressing beast. The earth-suppressing beast also stepped forward to meet the attack. Another burst of firelight flashed, and the fire giant gradually dissipated. A horrifying wound appeared on the earth-suppressing beast's body, and the blood flowing from the wound was black.

The Earth-Suppressing Beast withstood the full force of three attacks comparable to sixth-tier elementals, and even faced the blade with significantly higher elemental strength. It was clearly injured, but it did not fall. It stood proudly, as if proclaiming to the world that no one could shake it.

Jin Huage laughed heartily, his laughter seemingly mixed with resentment, helplessness, powerlessness, and pride. He thought to himself that this might be the best ending for him. He was willing to dedicate himself to the organization and burn himself out. Although he had not completed the mission, he had not failed the organization or the Chief of Staff in nurturing him.

Zhou Tianwu and Locke were also in despair. Now, having lost all their elemental reserves, the three could only wait for death. However, as the Earth-Suppressing Beast charged, a giant purple sword struck, its power so great that even the beast had to slow down and dodge. The sword pierced the ground and soon dissipated, followed by a sinister laugh from nearby.

"Hehehe, Chief of Staff Jin, it seems that Renjue is going to disappoint the Chief of Staff again."

The newcomer was none other than Peng Shaoshi, the Chief Guardian of the Insulators. Beside him were two other men whom Jin Huage recognized at a glance: Shen Yao and Jiang Ao, who served as the archer and pioneer respectively within the Guardians. Shen Yao was the same Shen Yao that Peng Shaoshi had mentioned earlier. He was currently the second strongest warrior among the Guardians, specializing in fire element. It was said that although his combat strength had not yet surpassed the sixth rank, he was already beyond the reach of ordinary sixth-rank elementalists. Jiang Ao, on the other hand, served as a pioneer and was skilled in air element. Although insulators were born unable to condense elemental fusions, they could still hone their proficiency in using various elements through elemental devices. Therefore, each Guardian had their own preferred element.

Compared to Peng Shaoshi's sinister demeanor, Shen Yao was much more serious: "Shaoshi, don't delay the important matter!" His cold shout immediately made Peng Shaoshi straighten up. The three of them observed the Earth-Suppressing Beast and saw that it had revealed its true form and was injured. Shen Yao already had a chance of winning. If the Earth-Suppressing Beast was still in its first state, then they would have to consider retreating. Since it had already been injured to this extent and had fused with the Immovable Stone, then they should defeat it with all their might and take the Immovable Stone.

It must be said that the three guardians are quite skilled. Compared to Jin Huage and his two companions, their elemental attacks are faster, more powerful, and have a greater reserve of elements. Shen Yao fired several arrows in succession, which seemed ordinary, but the arrowheads contained extremely strong fire elements. Each arrow caused a violent explosion on the earth-suppressing beast. Jiang Ao provided cover in front, constantly maneuvering with the vortex of air element. Peng Shaoshi, as a stealth user, specialized in condensing various weapons to attack the wounds of the earth-suppressing beast.

As the group continued their powerful attacks, the earth-suppressing beast sustained more and more wounds, and the ground was gradually stained black by its blood.

"Be careful, back off." As if sensing something, Shen Yao ordered the two to retreat. Jiang Ao and Peng Shaoshi obeyed the order and retreated decisively.

Enraged by the repeated attacks, the Earth-Suppressing Beast raised its two front legs again, about to launch the same attack as before. However, Peng Shaoshi saw through its plan, and several sharp weapons appeared out of thin air under its two front legs. As soon as the Earth-Suppressing Beast stepped down, they pierced the soles of its feet, causing it to howl in pain.

"You beast, do you really think I can't see through you?" Peng Shaoshi cursed disdainfully.

However, what goes around comes around. The Earth-Suppressing Beast immediately retaliated, shooting a black laser beam from its mouth towards Peng Shaoshi.

"Watch out!" Shen Yao shouted, but the laser beam was blocked by an invisible wall of energy when it reached Peng Shaoshi. Jiang Ao blocked the attack. Seeing that the attack was blocked, the three of them immediately counterattacked. Jiang Ao continued to hold Peng Shaoshi back, while Peng Shaoshi focused on his wounds, and Shen Yao gathered strength in the distance.

"Get out of the way!" As soon as Shen Yao finished speaking, an arrow containing a huge amount of elemental energy shot out. Jiang Ao and Peng Shaoshi immediately jumped aside to make way for his attack. When the arrow got close, it split into countless fire arrows, which pierced the entire body of the Earth-Suppressing Beast. Seeing this, Jiang Ao immediately activated his Qi element, and countless small vortexes propelled the arrows into the body of the Earth-Suppressing Beast. Then, countless violent explosions occurred inside its body, and black blood gushed out of the Earth-Suppressing Beast. Peng Shaoshi immediately rushed forward and conjured the purple giant sword from before. He stabbed it hard into the other side of the Earth-Suppressing Beast's body, and the tip of the sword came out from the other side.

After completing the attack, the three retreated to the side. The Earth-Suppressing Beast collapsed with a thud, lying on the ground and wailing. Soon it fell silent, and its body began to slowly petrify, then crumbled into countless small stones. Only the black bead between its two horns remained unchanged. As the Earth-Suppressing Beast's body disintegrated, the bead also rolled to the ground.

Seeing this, Shen Yao breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Jin Huage and the other two, glanced at them, and then pointed at Zhou Tianwu and said, "You, use the storage device to put away that black sphere." Shen Yao and the others had never seen what the Immovable Stone actually looked like, and were worried that rashly touching it would have a bad effect, so they ordered Zhou Tianwu to do it.

The storage device developed by the Human Crafts Division can shield the leakage of elemental particles and maintain the stability of the elements inside the device. These were all developed based on the requirements of the Director General. Zhou Tianwu had no choice but to take out the storage device, walk to the Immovable Stone, glance back and see that Shen Yao and the other two were staring at him menacingly. He had no choice but to bite the bullet, open the storage device, put the Immovable Stone inside, and finally close the device.

Seeing that Zhou Tianwu was not acting strangely, Shen Yao was relieved. He then had Zhou Tianwu hand the storage device to Jiang Ao, whispered a few words to Peng Shaoshi, and prepared to leave.

After receiving Shen Yao's orders, Peng Shaoshi turned to Zhou Tianwu and said, "Director Zhou, oh no, I should call you Chief Zhou now. The reconstruction of the Human Extinction Organization is entrusted to you. I hope you and Director Locke will continue to serve the Chief and the Insulator Organization." With that, he raised his hand and dozens of longswords flew out, piercing Jin Huage through. Then, he, Shen Yao, and Jiang Ao took the Immovable Stone and left.

Zhou Tianwu and Locke exchanged bewildered glances, their hearts sinking at the sight of Jin Huage's gruesome death. They couldn't understand why the Guardian had killed Jin Huage. Was it simply because they hadn't successfully defeated the Earth-Suppressing Beast? If they distrusted them so much, why had they entrusted this mission to Ren Jue? A sense of panic and helplessness crept into their hearts, and they briefly considered running away, but they managed to suppress it. Zhou Tianwu helped Locke up, and the two of them supported each other as they left the cave. They glanced back at Jin Huage a few times before quickly departing.

Poor Jin Huage, from obscurity to prominence, risked his life for the Insulator and the Chief Commander, from a passionate youth to a man with white hair, only to die tragically at the hands of his own people. Perhaps he never understood the Chief Commander's ultimate goal, he only knew that the Chief Commander wanted to create an ideal country for all those abandoned by heaven, and he carried this lofty ideal to the end of his life.

A moment of pity can determine a lifetime of suffering.

They were oblivious to the meaning behind the music.

The three parties united to report back.

Looking around, I realize my life has been in vain.
