At this very moment, the benefits of opening up the sea of spiritual consciousness became apparent. Kevin Walker did not dodge again; instead, he reached to the side, grabbed a stone the size of a soccer ball, and hurled it directly.

　　"Bang..."

　　The jagged centipede that had just leapt into the air was struck and sent flying. Because Kevin Walker didn't hold back at all, it was clear to see that part of its body shattered midair.

　　The next instant, before the other centipedes could attack him, Kevin Walker had already quickly grabbed the rubble and broken metal from the base's collapse and hurled them out.

　　"Boom... boom... bang... crack..." The previous strike had hit the centipede in midair and didn't seem that impressive, but now, every chunk of metal or stone thrown by Kevin Walker was like a cannonball.

　　Wherever they hit the ground, a large pit was blasted open. Any centipede on the alloy floor was smashed to pieces, and those on dirt were driven deep into the earth, leaving a deep crater.

　　A cloud of dust and mist spread out. Even Kevin Walker himself stared wide-eyed at the scene, hardly able to believe his own hands had created those deep craters, as if meteors had struck.

　　After this round of battle, Kevin Walker felt as if his soul had returned to his body. Now, he felt surging power throughout, his muscles and bones brimming with strength. Not to mention, whenever he fought, the Kunlun Technique in his body would automatically operate, making him feel almost invincible.

　　Kevin Walker hurriedly took a deep breath. He knew this sudden feeling of superhuman, invincible strength was just an illusion caused by a rapid surge in power—he was simply much stronger than before.

　　But to even have this illusion meant his strength had truly increased too quickly.

　　Normally, students like him, admitted to one of the six great martial academies and given national resources to begin cultivating the Original True Solution, would, after a few months, reach the newly established global level-one physique standard.

　　Kevin Walker couldn't measure himself at the moment, but this strength seemed to exceed the beginner's range...

　　After finishing up, Kevin Walker finally looked at the injury on his calf, only to find it had already scabbed over. His self-healing ability was far stronger than before.

　　Thinking back on what just happened, Kevin Walker still felt lingering fear. Especially recalling the beginning—his body was indeed much stronger now, but if he had really been caught by that jagged centipede, it would have meant either both legs broken or being decapitated.

　　Although Mars had already been cleared, the so-called clearing only targeted large prehistoric beasts. There were still plenty of threats to ordinary people.

　　This situation had been explained when they first arrived; even for tourism, they had to stay on protected sightseeing ships.

　　In fact, now that he was fully awake, Kevin Walker still felt a wave of fear. Although not much time had passed, since a prehistoric starry sky beast had appeared, a new wave of prehistoric beasts should logically follow. If what had appeared just now was a more powerful beast...

　　At this thought, Kevin Walker couldn't help but recall the tremor in his chest at that moment...

　　"Thanks for earlier. This... this birthmark of mine..." Thinking of this, Kevin Walker thanked Little Tyler while pulling open his shirt to look at his chest. What he saw shocked him.

　　The birthmark, originally a blurry circle with faint traces of a Taiji pattern, now showed an extremely clear Taiji shape, faintly glowing with a jade-like light, as if inlaid there.

　　"Little guy, what's going on with my birthmark? And what was that tremor just now..."

　　Little Tyler still didn't answer Kevin Walker. Only then did Kevin Walker sense something was wrong. He instantly used his spiritual power to check the state of his sea of consciousness, only to find Little Tyler sitting there, extremely weak.

　　And since it had just said it saved him, that meant he had been in danger.

　　Kevin Walker immediately grew anxious: "What's wrong, little guy? Are you okay?"

　　"Forget the thanks... If you're a man, go to where the prehistoric starry sky beast appeared and bring back the star core to save me." After saying this, Tyler Grant closed its eyes and fell silent. Though it said nothing more, it gave off a sense of impending extinction.

Chapter Four: The Star Core of the Prehistoric Starry Sky Beast

　　"Hey, you..." Communicating with this little guy was always infuriating. If it weren't for the fact that it had just saved him, Kevin Walker would really want to give it a piece of his mind. But then he realized the little guy seemed to have lost all vitality, as if on the verge of death.

　　Although this little guy hadn't been around long and was quite odd, it was born from his birthmark and was definitely closely connected to him.

　　Not to mention, it had guided his cultivation, awakened him from the brink of death, though its words always seemed to stab at his heart...

　　Fear, anxiety, worry, and struggle—he had felt them all, but in the end, Kevin Walker still decided to go find the star core that Little Tyler mentioned. He even left behind a will for this purpose.

　　If it were anyone else in this situation, they'd definitely want to stay put, but even staying wouldn't save him if death was coming.

　　After all, Little Tyler was trapped on Mars with him, a companion and comrade in adversity. Its current state seemed to be a result of warning and saving him.
