Sam warped again. And this time, he is in a dark underground cave with a lot of tunnels. He left the forest bear back into the divine dimension.

He didn't let any other beasts out and even he didn't move anywhere.

He sat down crosslegged and took a swig of wine to recover a bit before trying his best to calm down as he meditated.

He didn't think about anything. He tried to empty his mind and didn't even care about the palace of inheritance anymore.

He focused on only one thing. His breathe.

He carefully meditated as he tried to throw out all the thoughts regarding the warping, the change in environments, the continuous attacks from the beasts, their unnatural killing intent, the prize, the contest, the play of gods, the anger he felt towards them. He didn't think of anything.

He emptied his mind to extreme and tried focus on his breath.

Even if he didn't go over and try to find trouble with the beasts, that doesn't mean they don't find trouble with him.

Soon, stone pythons started coming towards him and when they saw him sitting there doing nothing, they coiled around comfortably.

Sam still didn't move, but activated earth elemental fusion turning his body rock solid and focused only on defense.

He didn't attack them for a single second. He just them try to bit him and try to attack him as much as they liked, but only when they were about to hit him critically did he do anything like create some earthen spikes on his body and throwing them down a bit.

He only focused on recovering his body and state of mind no matter how disturbing it.

Time passed by and soon he warped again.

He appeared in the middle of a stream and some alligator type beasts are already waiting for him to take a bit of him.

He didn't even have any time to react before a beast already impaled its teeth into his body.

Even though he has earth elemental fusion which made his body rock solid, this beast's teeth are sp strong and the bite strength is so high that his body started cracking.

Sam still tried his best to calm down and first caused the beast to release him with the earthen spikes and then release the elemental fusion before using water element and pushing the alligators away, he then once again used the earth element to create a barricade around him so that the water wouldn't enter and he can meditate calmly.

The alligators started attacking the beasts crazily and tried their best to get inside the barricade.

He kept on repairing the barricade no matter how much it cracked without opening his eyes.

Soon, many more creatures came for him. More alligators, some piranha fish, and many other fish that would feast on him if they got the slightest chance.

But Sam didn't let them have it.

He warped just like that.

And this time he is falling from a cliff.

He still didn't open his eyes and waved his hand. Sky came out and he landed on his back and both of them flew away.

Sky only had one duty, to avoid all the beasts are coming at them and escape.

When the warping was about to come again, he let Sky back in the divine dimension and reappeared in a new place.

This time, he didn't stay with his eyes closed and opened his eyes.

He finally calmed down and went for hunting.

This is a desert, so he called Dia out and rode on her back as they moved in a certain direction.

After calming his mind, Sam thought about something else.

It is about his savage state. He couldn't understand why he couldn't stay calm at all and turned into such a savage.

It is not like the warping and change in environments are not a part of it, but he still felt like he is beyond that. It is not enough to turn him into such a savage.

Even in that Savage state, he has this unusual blood thirst to find and kill the rest of the players if he has to, to end this whole thing.

The more he fought with the beasts. The more intense the feeling got.

That didn't make sense at all and he couldn't think about why it is happening before because his mind is not calm.

So, he wanted to experiment a bit.

So, he fought with the desert cougars, the scorpion type beasts and many other beasts that came for him and after two hours of constant killing and journey, he warped again.

This time, he is falling from the sky again, but into the sea.

He sent Dia back into the divine dimension and let Mia out as they freely fell into the water.

But right when they are about ten feet away from the water surface, a large whale jumped out of it and swallowed both of them down before going back.

Sam and Mia washed down its throat without any resistance.

But once they reached the stomach of the whale, they could feel the digestive fluid being corrosive.

But it is not corrosive enough. Even that is not the most surprising part.

The fact that there are more than ten other beasts within that stomach surprised them even more.

Sam and started the fight without any delay and soon after the beasts are done, Mia started eating the stomach of the Whale and quickly ate out a path out for them. But as soon as they reached the water after killing the whale, they warped.

Sam threw Mia back in the divine dimension and reappeared on the back of a gigantic lizard which is in the middle of a having its meal.

But as soon as he appeared, it stopped its meal and rolled on the ground to make him get down.

Sam jumped off of his back and he noticed that urge to kill reappeared again.

He could barely feel it.

He wants to kill the lizard in the most gruesome way possible. But his mind is still clear to not to succumb to it and it is still more like a subconscious thought.

As he killed the lizard, he realized that is in the middle of a lizard nest as more and more lizards started coming out of their holes.

Sam didn't even hesitate as he took out reaper and executioner and started slicing through their scaly bodies.

As he continued, his urge to kill increased again.

This is completely unlike him.

He warped and he reappeared in the clouds, he let Sky and Yanwu out once again, but he didn't let them fight directly, he started slicing. The urge is going out of hand once again.

He reached the same feeling and same irritation he had before the meditation. He couldn't understand how his state of mind which couldn't be influenced in far threatening situations could be changed this easily.

So when he warped again, he once again went back to the meditation and tried to recover his mental state to think this through. To figure out what exactly is happening.

And after another round of meditation, he finally realized something.

It is not the warping that is making him that crazy. It has something to do with killing the beasts.

To test the theory out he went on for a few more rounds.

And when the mentality change happened he meditated once again. He repeated the process until he reached some desired conclusions and they are not exactly something he is looking forward to.

The first thing is that Warping really had little to do with the blood lust.

The most important thing in this is the beast killing.

No matter which way he killed them, with ranged attacks, with close quarters or any other methods, the more he killed that more bloodlust he is accumulating and the more he wants to kill.

And this is also leading to the irritation and disturbing his state of mind to search for the rest of the players and not finding them is making even angrier leading to him taking it out on more beasts and the cycle is repeating.

There is only one end goal for this and that is to make the players crazy.

Sam managed to get a hold of himself. His twisted state of mind helped him.

But the same couldn't be said about the rest of the players. Nobody knows how their state of mind is and if they would be able to come out of it.

If they couldn't, then by the time they faced each other, things wouldn't be just some sparring to see who will stay and who will give up.

They would go for each other's throats and try to kill each other even at the risk of harming themselves.

They wouldn't hesitate to hold back and wouldn't second guess about using their trump cards. They would be like some crazy savages whose only goal is killing.

Sam felt a chill run down his spine. Because he remembered the mini-game that was being played within the Palace of inheritance. The beasts are the points that inevitably make the players focus on the beasts.

This might as well be the cruelest Palace of inheritance of all.

Now he really didn't want to meet the other players. But that is an inevitable situation.
