"Gazing at the night sky, the stars return to their positions. The past has gone; bygone times are over..."
"The starlight burns, the old days return, descending from the heavens, omnipresent..."
An ancient and obscure ballad wafted from the sinkhole, like a devout believer praying to the ancient gods above the stars.
A divine spiritual essence surrounded Gao Peng’s shattered limbs. A large hole had been blasted through them, and the wound, which nearly split him in half, seeped a faint golden glow.
This golden light, however, was as deep as twilight and heavy with the air of death, symbolizing looming nightfall and encroaching darkness.
Immediately, the golden light expanded, transforming into a Twilight Light that engulfed his figure.
His sharp teeth gnawed and sucked. His body sank to the ground, and on all fours, he transformed into a gigantic beast.
Mouths grew from his fur, their teeth as sharp as swords. A dozen tumors sprouted on his back, from which wriggling flesh buds emerged, revealing the devoured arms of Pet Beasts.
Masses of red, soft tendons squirmed, forming streamers that fluttered in the wind. Amidst the tendons, heads—both human and beast—poked out, their expressions filled with malice, hatred, and signs of rot.
"Cunning brat! In the presence of Adabos, the God of Flesh and Blood, I shall devour every bone of yours!"
The head swelled, and two ram horns began to split, forming antler-like white bone deer horns, somewhat resembling the Nightmare Deer King.
Only a scarlet eyeball emerged from between his brows, staring intently at the distant Chu Yi.
The Golden Decree allowed him a single resurrection.
That shot from the Spiritual Giant Cannon directly obliterated me because I was completely defenseless!
Divine Spiritual Essence! This pure and extreme Spiritual Essence manifested a divine attribute, delivering a devastating blow to Evil God Cultists.
I need to deal with that brat who fired the cannon first!
However, after he resurrected, the Dragon Eagle, Diao Diao, was gathering power.
Hovering high in the sky, it flapped its wings. The crosshairs locked onto Gao Peng, and as Diao Diao exhaled, a beam of destructive light shot through the air.
Special Move, Ash-Breath!
With a swift movement, Gao Peng dove into the desert, kicking up a cloud of sand and dodging the strike.
His powerful kinetic energy allowed him to move like a desert worm deep beneath the surface, excavating with extreme speed. f\r(e)ewe.b no\vel.com
Using thermal sensing, he charged rapidly towards Chu Yi’s position, aiming for a one-hit kill.
Bika, carrying Chu Yi and Jiang Qiuyun, transformed into a Fire Shadow and dashed off, flames trailing behind like streamers.
Despite this ant’s attempts to flee, under my tracking, there’s no escape from my pursuit. Run. Struggle. Despair. In this abyss of blood and darkness!
The desert bulged, forming a large, rapidly moving mound.
A colossal shadow emerged beneath Bika’s feet, like an abyssal behemoth opening its massive maw to devour its prey.
Bika stomped the ground. The spot it touched was instantly covered by a layer of hard, ink-colored crystal as it leaped to another location.
The ink-colored crystal only held for a second before cracks spread across its surface.
The next moment, it shattered like glass. Countless scarlet hands burst forth, spraying a mist of interweaving blood worms.
"Finally lured you out." Chu Yi revealed a sinister smile, having Bika carry the unconscious Jiang Qiuyun away.
He raised his left arm. A line of Star Track Marks on it flashed, then shattered one by one, releasing an overwhelming, bone-chilling pressure.
The oncoming blood worms, hideous and snarling, froze in that instant, turning into a cloud of ash that scattered to the winds.
Gao Peng, who had been intent on delivering a killing blow, shuddered. The blood-red tendrils he had sent flying dissolved like foam.
His blood-red eye showed a moment’s confusion before a wave of higher-dimensional information—a corrupting force that overturned order and truth—assaulted his mind.
The blood-red eye shattered. His soul twisted instantly, and under the erosion of this intense corruption, his flesh began to mutate uncontrollably.
He screamed madly, dozens of mouths roaring in unison, as if to alleviate the distortion caused by this corruption.
"Courting death!" Chu Yi stated coldly. As the Power of the Demon God was released, a shadow rapidly expanded, turning the entire area into a source of corruption.
A strange, unsettling aura quickly radiated throughout the Bloody Wilderness.
"You... you are a divine avatar!" Gao Peng, with his last shred of sanity, deduced the other’s identity. Even a Golden Monarch wouldn’t exert such terrifying pressure on me... No, this is a power that recklessly destroys order, something beyond words. I’ve offended such a terrifying Outer God; I have to flee! While this divine avatar is still weak, I must escape! Beg for mercy? With the Golden Decree, I cannot betray the great God of Flesh and Blood. Besides, once the five great sacrifices are gathered, a god can be summoned.
He discarded his now uncontrollable flesh, activated an explosive Secret Technique, and shot several hundred meters away, fleeing frantically.
Chu Yi’s dark eyes glowed faintly. He extended a phantom hand forward, grasping from afar.
Space twisted and shattered like a mirror, revealing Gao Peng’s broken figure emerging from it.
"I, in the name of ash, grant you death!" Chu Yi spoke indifferently, like a supreme deity pronouncing judgment upon an ant.
A massive hand made of grey mist surged from the shadows, enveloping Gao Peng.
"No, great Master of Grey Mist, King of Darkness, this is a misunderstanding! I am willing to submit to your... AAAH!"
The greyish-white mist clawed a twisted soul out of Gao Peng’s grotesque, fleshy body. The soul struggled in despair.
In the end, it was crushed into fine, luminescent shreds. Chu Yi devoured the soul fragments.
[Evolution Points +50]
Wow, a big fish! That’s even more than what I got from the Nightmare Deer King. Chu Yi licked his lips and then looked at a line of data.
[Current Erosion Rate]: 71%
What the hell? After using it for just a little while, the Erosion Rate increased so fast? No wonder this time’s Ghost Slash was judged so decisively; it seems this Demon God has already reaped the benefits. Does this mean that the next time I use it, the seal will break, the true Master of Grey Mist will descend upon the world, and I’ll be the first one he takes out?
"Ants... liberation... apocalypse..."
The shadow squirmed. The greyish-white mist began to erode Chu Yi as a will echoed in his mind, demanding that Chu Yi release it.
"Go back and eat dirt," Chu Yi stated coldly, re-establishing the Star Orbit connection, drawing the Demon God’s phantom back and reforming the Star Track Mark.
Once I’ve saved up enough Evolution Points, I’ll sell you. No, I’ll sprinkle some seasoning on you and eat you!
Bika sidled up to Chu Yi. Having partaken of the feast, and with Chu Yi deliberately shielding it, the Demon God’s corruption had no effect on it.
The Dragon Eagle, Diao Diao, on the other hand, circled with its wings, not daring to descend, looking at Chu Yi in terror.
From start to finish, I witnessed the actions of a taboo existence. Who would have thought this damn man was so terrifying? Could I and my master escape his grasp? Wait, I saw what I shouldn’t have. This taboo existence won’t devour my soul, will it?
As a T0-strength Pet Beast, the Dragon Eagle, Diao Diao, couldn’t help but tremble in fear.
