Chapter 571: The Enraged Heavenly Void Beast
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Heavenly Void Beast discovered something extremely disturbing; the Heavenly Void Spirit it had been nurturing for tens of thousands of years had disappeared from within its body!
This was a Body of Chaotic Essence! The Heavenly Void Spirit had absorbed countless life essence and chaotic matter as well as the fundamental power of the Heavenly Void Beast itself!
The world within the whale’s body was similar to a human’s sea of vital energy, in that it was easy to overlook the things that were taking place within unless they internally focused their attention. It was exactly because of this that the Heavenly Void Beast only realized that it had lost its Body of Chaotic Essence after it was too late.
It wanted to examine the memories of the Body of Chaotic Essence to see what had happened, only to find that it was unable to do so as it had completely lost connection with the Body of Chaotic Essence…
“Roar!”
The whale roared with rage as the energy within its body exploded forth, making the ground in a radius of over ten thousand feet crack open as gale-force winds swept up, creating a ma.s.sive sandstorm in a scene akin to the onset of Armageddon.
It turned its gaze internally on An Lin and the others who had yet to be digested. These were the only people who could have come into contact with the Body of Chaotic Essence.
The Body of Chaotic Essence was a near-invincible being within its body, and as such, it wasn’t really worried about letting it engage in battles. However, this appeared to be an oversight now.
These people definitely had something to do with the disappearance of the Body of Chaotic Essence!
Boom!
An extremely formidable spatial compression power swept toward An Lin and the others from all sides.
Xiao Ze had already enshrouded everyone in his black dragon projection, thereby keeping the fearsome spatial compression power at bay.
“The Heavenly Void Beast has been enraged. It looks like it has noticed the disappearance of the Heavenly Void Spirit…” the Night Patrol G.o.d said in a grave voice, as if he had already predicted that something like this would happen…
“We’ve taken care of business in here, so it’s time to figure out how to get out of here,” Merlin said with a carefree smile.
Xiao Ze rolled his eyes. “Taken care of business? I have to expend many times the amount of energy I was expending before to keep this spatial compression pressure at bay! This is not any easier for me than defending against the successive attacks from the Heavenly Void Spirit!”
“How long can you last?” Ca.s.sidy was getting concerned again.
Xiao Ze placed a Blood Spirit Pill into his mouth before replying, “Even if I continue to consume pills as I unleash my spell technique, my energy will still be completely depleted after six hours.”
An Lin immediately rallied everyone upon hearing this. “If that’s the case, then we need to hurry up and find a way to get out of here. It’s simply not practical to wait for the whale to open its mouth when it feeds next.”
Everyone nodded in unison before turning their eyes on An Lin.
An Lin’s expression faltered slightly in confusion. “What are you all looking at me for?”
Little did he know that ever since he saved everyone by swallowing the Body of Chaotic Essence, he had become the default leader of the group. As such, everyone wanted to hear his opinion first.
“Mr. An Lin, do you have any ideas?” Celestial Maiden He inquired with a dainty smile.
An Lin: “…”
A bunch of Return to Void Stage mighty figures were waiting for a mere Soul Formation Stage cultivator to come up with an idea? Was this really advisable?
“I can’t think of anything for the moment. How about you all suggest some ideas?” An Lin’s head was beginning to throb.
Thus, everyone sprang into action.
Tobias tried to forcefully tear open the s.p.a.ce within the Heavenly Void Beast, only to find that he was unable to tear a spatial rift leading to the outside world and could only traverse within this small world.
Everyone had actually already suspected that this would be the case.
Chang He released tens of thousands of golden cicadas to try and explore avenues leading to the outside world, but this small world was unfathomably huge, and the cicadas had yet to obtain any useful information.
Everyone else was also using their own methods to try and find a way out.
Time pa.s.sed by slowly, but no progress was being made, and everyone was starting to feel a little dejected.
An Lin wondered to himself if he could plunder something else from the Heavenly Void Beast to change this situation. He was initially quite reluctant to resort to this spell technique again in fear of incurring the wrath of the Heavenly Void Beast, thereby worsening the situation, but it looked like he had no choice but to try it again.
Divine Plunder Technique!
Golden ripples proliferated outward before merging into heaven and earth.
A dense cl.u.s.ter of information on spell techniques and abilities instantly rushed into An Lin’s head, giving him a splitting headache.
This was something he had experienced once in the past; it was the same backlash he had suffered when using the Divine Plunder Technique on Xiao Tu. He didn’t have time to sift through all the options, so he decided to pick one at random!
He abruptly picked out a certain string of information amid a rush of dizziness.
“Puah!”
An Lin spat out a mouthful of blood, and the image of the golden eye disappeared from his forehead as he collapsed to the ground in exhaustion.
“Master!”
“Holy Leader!”
“Mr. An Lin!”
Everyone’s expression s.h.i.+fted as they ran over to An Lin in quick succession.
“I’m fine…” An Lin waved his hand feebly.
He observed the ability that he had plundered, and a peculiar expression appeared on his face.
“Heavenly Void Reproductive Ability: The ability to absorb limitless spatial power to materialize a core of life, upon which the user of the ability will gain the reproductive ability of the Heavenly Void Beast.”
An Lin’s lips twitched upon reading this information. He had risked his life for the ability to bear children?!
And this was the reproductive ability of Heavenly Void Beasts! He was a human for G.o.d’s sake!
However, An Lin did attain some enlightenment from plundering this ability.
He felt like he was at least able to absorb limitless spatial power now.
He immediately acted without delay.
He activated his cultivation method, and sure enough, spatial power began to converge toward his body.
At the same time, he experienced a swelling pain in his stomach, which soon worsened into an extremely acute pain, as if his stomach was about to burst open!
An Lin looked down, and his whole body trembled when he discovered that his stomach had expanded.
Holy f*ck! Is this a pregnancy?
Stop! Stop it right now!
He immediately withdrew the spell technique, but spatial power continued to flow into his body…
Bam!
An Lin’s stomach exploded, and blood and pieces of internal organs splattered all over their faces.
Celestial Maiden He and the others were all completely dumbstruck.
“Master self-detonated?” Xue Zhantian wore a stunned expression with fur stained red with blood.
“Giant An Lin self-detonated?” Tina was rooted on An Lin’s shoulder.
“Master self-detonated?” Xiao Ze’s legs almost gave out from under him, and his defensive spell technique almost collapsed.
An Lin was on the brink of death as he urged in a trembling voice, “What… what are you all waiting for? I feel like… I can still be saved…”
At the same time, the Heavenly Void Beast, which was situated at the border of the Remorseless Realm, suddenly felt as if it had lost something again…
It suddenly felt like all its efforts in life were worthless and pointless.
Ah… why did it want to give birth here? What was so good about having children?
Who was it? Why was it here? What was its purpose in life?
The gargantuan whale was at a complete loss.
