Li Dalong and Saliya both remained on Tianniu Island, though one stayed voluntarily while the other was forced to stay, and both ended up filled with regret.

The first two versions contained great opportunities - the transformation abilities of the first version, the special powers of the second version, as if heaven was compensating Blue Star's humans.

By the third version, there were no similar great opportunities. With the world's fusion, it wasn't just Blue Star's humans facing the apocalypse - humans and animals from other worlds also had to confront the end times, suffering countless casualties.

Li Xuan crossed his arms, leaning against the iron plating, contemplating whether he could obtain the martial arts seed from the Soul King Village's ancestral treasure vault.

Perhaps because the version update was getting closer, the intelligence he recently obtained was all related to martial arts.

Although he hadn't yet figured out the comparison between martial arts realms and ability user levels, he had gained some preliminary understanding of the martial arts world's knowledge.

For example, martial seeds were unique heavenly treasures, the ultimate treasures of the martial arts world. Even someone with the worst martial talent could become a genius by swallowing a martial seed, and the longer one swallowed it, the greater their potential.

There were six martial seeds circulating in the martial arts world, each type having only one!

They were: Pure Yang Martial Seed, Pure Yin Martial Seed, Life Martial Seed, Death Martial Seed, Illusion Martial Seed, and Dragon Martial Seed.

The train's third hidden reward was a Pure Yang Martial Seed. After swallowing the Pure Yang Martial Seed and then practicing pure yang techniques, one would progress a thousand miles in a single day. When performing pure yang martial skills, the power displayed would be greater than even the original creators.

If the Pure Yang Martial Seed appeared in the martial arts world, it would absolutely cause an uproar, stirring bloody storms with countless martial arts experts fighting over it.

The clown train attendant wasn't willing to hand over the Pure Yang Martial Seed, deliberately giving it to him when he disembarked. He had to swallow the Pure Yang Martial Seed within three seconds, otherwise it would dissipate, then reappear somewhere in the martial arts world after several hundred years.

The attendant was malicious. If he didn't swallow it immediately, he would lose a Pure Yang Martial Seed. If he swallowed it immediately, he would be seen by countless survivors.

When survivors went to Soul King Village to investigate, they would learn he had swallowed the Pure Yang Martial Seed. Li Xuan wasn't afraid of survivors discovering this - even if they found out, the survivors couldn't do anything to him.

Li Xuan worried that Soul King Village's villagers would become greedy after learning about it. The intelligence didn't indicate whether martial seeds could be transferred. If they could be transferred, he would be in danger.

Since there was a martial seed hidden in Soul King Village's treasure vault, their ancestors must have produced powerful martial artists. Even if he transformed into a giant beast, he didn't know if he could defeat Soul King Village's martial arts experts.

Li Xuan rubbed his temples. Trying to obtain treasures from future versions in advance wasn't easy. Even with his system intelligence, he needed to carefully consider things to avoid pitfalls. Those without system intelligence would end up with nothing even if they obtained hidden rewards, and might even bring disaster upon themselves.

'I'll try to obtain the martial seed hidden in Soul King Village. Such ultimate treasures are more reassuring when controlled by our own people,' Li Xuan thought to himself.

A person could only swallow one type of martial seed. He planned to swallow the Pure Yang Martial Seed, so by the third version, he would become a martial arts prodigy.

If he failed to obtain the martial seed from the ancestral treasure vault this time, Li Xuan intended to find Li Dalong during the third version and exchange martial seeds with him.

He still had an ability seed obtained during the early apocalypse that could make someone awaken an ability that shouldn't exist within three days.

If Li Dalong wasn't willing to exchange, he would use another method - like stealing it.

Li Xuan was willing to engage in fair transactions with others, but that didn't mean he would be bound by morality.

Boom!

The clown train suddenly changed direction, plunging its front into the sea, charging toward the seabed.

Even in water, the clown train's speed remained unchanged, swiftly navigating through the depths.

The massive commotion woke the survivors on board, who watched the underwater scenery through the train's small windows.

"Why did we suddenly enter the sea? Could Atlantis really exist? Do underwater cities truly exist?"

"The final destination couldn't be Atlantis, could it!"

"No, there are zombies underwater too. A school of zombie killer whales just swam past. Even if Atlantis really exists, it wouldn't be safe. The train promised to take us to a place without the apocalypse."

A teenage boy pressed against the window. His former dream was to become a diver, interacting with all kinds of wonderful marine creatures underwater.

He loved marine animals very much, and still loved them even after they turned into zombies.

"Mom, look quickly, there are killer whales," the boy shouted.

A middle-aged woman with a resolute face looked in the direction the boy pointed. A pod of killer whales was swimming close to the clown train. Their swimming speed couldn't match the clown train's, and they gradually fell behind.

Suddenly, a giant beast's silhouette emerged from the dark waters, opening its abyssal mouth toward the clown train, its massive teeth crashing against the train's iron plating.

Ah!

The little boy and middle-aged woman were startled, retreating repeatedly.

"What kind of monster is so huge, daring to attack the train!"

The little boy shouted: "It's the handsome and powerful killer whale! Killer whales infected with the zombie virus!"

The middle-aged woman slapped the boy's buttocks twice, "Stop talking nonsense!"

The clown train wasn't damaged, nor did it slow down due to the mutated zombie killer whale's attack, driving straight into the deep sea and shaking off the mutated zombie killer whale.

The survivors quickly put the mutated zombie killer whale out of their minds, focusing on where the train's destination might be.

Li Xuan silently memorized the mutated zombie killer whale's appearance and distinctive features.

Yun Xiuzhi, curious, leaned close to Li Xuan's ear and softly asked: "Is that killer whale special?"

Li Xuan nodded, whispering: "The future Deep Sea King, with an awakened ability of devouring."

The Deep Sea King's devouring ability wasn't comparable to An Chun's Fallen Touch. One had an extremely high upper limit, capable of devouring anything with rapid growth speed, making the mutated zombie killer whale the ocean overlord.

The other could only grow stronger by devouring its own negative emotions, with an upper limit only reaching King-grade.

The difference between them was roughly like that between a Chinese Alligator and a Sarcosuchus.

Boom!

The train shook violently, the lights inside went out, plunging everyone into darkness.

"Attendant! Turn on the lights!"

"Which bastard is touching me! Pay up!"

"Brother behind me! Don't take off my pants! You've got the wrong person, I'm male! There's a beauty next to me!"

The carriage descended into chaos, with some survivors who considered themselves clever thinking it was another darkness descent, like when the apocalypse first burst. They frantically pulled food from their backpacks and stuffed it into their mouths, trying to obtain transformation abilities.

Just as the survivors adapted to the darkness and regained some vision, the lights suddenly turned on, causing another wave of chaos.

A mechanical voice sounded throughout the carriage: "Respected passengers, the clown train has arrived at its destination. Please disembark in an orderly manner. No one is permitted to remain on board.

The train will remain in place for ten days. Those wishing to return should return early. The return ticket costs one hundred yuan. Passengers without money should not return, as it would waste our time.

Additionally, passengers who haven't borrowed money from others may collect ten portions of cockroach paste from the attendant. This is the train's reward for you."

In the premium soft sleeper carriage, Li Dalong exclaimed excitedly, "We've finally arrived at the station, the place without the apocalypse."
