The pale yellow planet was filled with pale yellow hydrogen sulfide gas everywhere, so the entire planet was immersed in a strong smell of flatulence.
Breathing fart every day?
It was unimaginable how life survived on this planet.
There was a massive mountain in front of them, and Ling Jiu launched an attack against the several thousand acres of the Arcana forest.
“Earthen Starburst!”
As he pointed into the void with a finger, the earth rocked. Pieces of rocks, piles of mud, and loess rose and formed a ball of earth in the air.
The Arcana trees were uprooted, and they rose into the air as they were pulled out by force.
Boom!
The ground was trembling.
The earth ball was growing.
After a dozen breaths, a giant earth ball with a diameter of several hundred meters appeared in the air as Bai Ya watched in awe.
“Fall!”
Ling Jiu’s mouth curled up in a smirk as he looked at the center of the Arcana forest. As he waved his hand down, the earth ball instantly fell.
It bored through the air and plunged like a meteorite. Once it hit the ground, it would cause a devastating blow to thousands of acres of Arcana forest.
At this critical moment, a roar suddenly came from the mountain peak, along with ripples seen on the bare mountain wall.
The next moment, a group of hideous monsters lunged out of the mountain wall.
Five lobster monsters…
Four sickle-head monsters…
Two bull-headed monsters…
Two crocodile monsters…
There were 13 monsters roaring and lunging out of the mountain wall.
“Here they come!”
The appearance of the monsters was not a surprise to Ling Jiu. He used Blink Arcana and reappeared in front of the monsters. Then, he opened his mouth and released a powerful suction force.
A black hole that was much more powerful and violent than before appeared out of thin air with an unparalleled swallowing force.
To Bai Ya’s amazement, these 13 monsters that looked like the Nine Tails confined by Madara Uchiha1 plunged into the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.
Of course, these 13 monsters did not actually plunge into the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. They fell into Ling Jiu’s mouth and then disappeared into it.
The black hole disappeared after that.
Ling Jiu burped and let out a sigh of satisfaction as a vitality poured into his body.
9527 once said that the Inner World was the core of the Flame Astral Behemoths. Ling Jiu gradually realized that this was indeed true.
The Devourer transformed them into vitality to strengthen the physical body.
Swallowing magma could transform into an energy that grows the Inner World.
Even the Spawn Split was also done in the Inner World.
It’s not wrong to say that the Inner World was the core of Flames Astral Behemoths.
“How did he swallow thirteen massive monsters at once?”
Bai Ya was wide-eyed. “What ability is that?”
She knew that Ling Jiu had Arcana replication, so it was not surprising that Ling Jiu had all kinds of Arcana.
What stirred Bai Ya’s curiosity was the kind of Arcana that had such an astounding effect. It seemed like the mythological creatures, Taotie and Chaos.
They could devour everything.
It was terrifying.
Boom!
Just then, the giant earthen ball that fell from the sky hit the center of the forest of Arcana trees.
A loud boom ensured, and the ground shook violently with a violent shock wave spreading out in all directions.
An enormous crater with a diameter of several thousand meters and a depth of several dozen meters formed in the middle of the Arcana forest. Rocks and dust were flying into the air as if it was a doomsday scene.
“I have not used the Gravity Arcana for a long time. It seems that it is not rusty yet.”
Ling Jiu was hovering in the air, watching the scene in front of him with the corners of his mouth curling up. He was pleased with the power of Earthen Starburst.
After becoming a Level 7 Arcanist, all his abilities had received a tremendous boost of power. Of course, his Arcana Field had gotten the most direct improvement.
His field had further consolidated, not only the buff bonus was higher (10 times), but the range of the Arcana Field had also further expanded (1 km).
With the help of the Arcana Field, he could fly in the air and cross the void.
Therefore, all Level 7 Arcanists could fly like a bird instead of fly by gravity.
Just then, a roar came from the mountain wall. Ling Jiu turned his head and looked around and saw a little monster over three meters tall had lunged out of the mountain wall and glared at him.
Compared with the previous thirteen monsters, this one was much shorter, no more than three meters, resembling an aquatic insect.
The most striking thing was, it walked upright and had four arms as well as a pair of translucent wings.
It also looked like the crustaceans on Earth with exoskeletons. Not only that, but it had a spindle-shaped crown too.
It was more like the head of an alien queen.
“Is this a monster, or an alien human?”
Ling Jiu squinted as he looked at the humanoid creature that suddenly appeared. His gut feeling told him that the monster in differed from all the monsters before. This monster had a keen eye.
While Ling Jiu was studying the humanoid creature, it was also studying him. When it saw the destroyed forest of Arcana trees, there was a furious look in its eyes.
“Kill it, Slattern!”
It screamed, and the next moment, the earth trembled. The mountain wall shook as a colossal monster emerged.
It was a horrible monster that was 180 meters tall, unprecedentedly large. It had a shark-like head with double fins, thick and tough armor, as well as three sharp, spear-like tails. It was truly monstrous.
It was also humongous.
In terms of size alone, the 13 monsters earlier were a child’s play.
The moment it appeared, a terrifying murderous air radiated from it. It was so oppressive that Bai Ya’s expression changed as horror filled her eyes.
“Be careful, Ling Jiu!”
Bai Ya shouted, “This isn’t any monster!”
“I know. Don’t worry!”
Ling Jiu mimed an “okay” at Bai Ya with his finger while he stared at the monster.
Indeed, this was not any monster. He could feel the terrifying air it exuded—so much so that it was more terrible than all the Class 9 Direbeasts he had seen so far.
Ling Jiu did not know if this was a Class 9 Direbeast or something more powerful. All he knew was that this guy here was badass.
“Kill him for me, Slattern!” The humanoid pointed at Ling Jiu and shouted angrily.
The colossal monster known as Slattern roared. The sonic wave exploded, forming a circle of substantial shock waves spreading in all directions.
Hit by the sound wave, Bai Ya covered her head with her hands and screamed in pain. The sonic attack was so powerful that Bai Ya was bleeding through her ears.
Upon seeing this, Ling Jiu waved his big hand and sent Bai Ya into a dimension, where no one could hurt her.
“You have a death wish!”
Ling Jiu snorted, and his body expanded rapidly like an inflated balloon. He transformed into a 50-meter-tall giant in an instant.
The Venom Suit apparently did not fit him and automatically retracted. His clothes had been torn apart.
It goes without saying that Ling Jiu was naked now.
However, it was all right since he was not facing any human. He had nothing to be ashamed of. Bai Ya was inside the dimension, and she could not see what was happening outside.
The Slattern ran on her enormous feet toward Ling Jiu, and a loud rumbling sound rose with every step she took.
With her enormous size, it only took her a few steps to traverse a few hundred meters. The Slattern wielded her two blade-like claws and grabbed Ling Jiu in a flash.
“If you think you can do whatever you want because of your size, you are sorely mistaken!”
Ling Jiu hissed, dodging the sharp claw in a flash, then raised his right fist and struck.
The iron fist hit the Slattern in the chest. The blow punched through the ten-meter-thick armor and left behind a wound with blue blood gurgling out of it.
“Your defense looks amazing, but fragile!”
Ling Jiu lost interest after just a punch. He was not interested in continuing the fight. At first, he had thought of having close-quarters combat, but the opponent was horrible. Hence, he would end the battle here.
Ling Jiu opened his mouth again.
A violent suction force came from his mouth, and the Slattern lost control of her body. She flew toward Ling Jiu before vanishing into his mouth.
“How could this be possible?”
The humanoid could not believe its eyes, seeing what happened.
It made a series of strange sounds as it rushed back toward the mountain wall.
Apparently it was thinking of fleeing.
“Where are you going, huh?”
Ling Jiu chuckled, and spelled out a word, “Freeze!”
The humanoid froze in the air in an instant.
Ling Jiu shrunk his body, put on his Venom Suit, and came close to the humanoid. He pulled his right hand in the void, and a dimensional cage formed. He then threw the humanoid inside the cage and locked it up.
The so-called dimensional cage was actually a small dimensional created by Ling Jiu with dimensional points. No one could escape unless the captive could hack through this small dimension with brute force, or the captive was good at using Dimensional Arcana like Ling Jiu.
Ling Jiu lifted Time Half and the humanoid creature resumed its movement. It still tried to escape back to the mountain wall, only to find that it was trapped.
It tried to hack the barrier of the small dimension, but it could not make a dent. Ling Jiu finally figured it out; this humanoid creature was barely equivalent to a Level 5 or 6 Arcanist in terms of strength. There was no way it could destroy the dimension.
Ling Jiu’s eyes fell on it.
Name: Pioneer Mosalz
Species: Atworth Pioneers
Arcanas: Poison Manipulation (awakened), Beast Manipulation (awakened)
“Atworth Pioneers?”
Ling Jiu was stunned. “What species is this? Forget it. I will take it back and show it to 9527 later.”
Ling Jiu ignored this humanoid creature and let Bai Ya out. “Are you okay?”
“I am fine,” Bai Ya replied. “Are you okay?”
“How can I not be okay?”
Ling Jiu shrugged. “Let’s check out that mountain wall.”
“All right.”
The two walked over.
What appeared in front of them was indeed a mountain wall that looked no different from an ordinary mountain wall.
Yet, when Ling Jiu reached out to touch it, a ripple formed as his hand went all the way through the mountain wall.
“This mountain wall is like an enchantment, or maybe a door!”
Ling Jiu exclaimed and then took a step forward and passed through the mountain wall. Bai Ya followed.
They then arrived on the inside of the mountain wall.
