Within his cavernous sea of vital energy, the white flaming vermilion bird soared in the air above, lighting up the sea of vital energy like the sun in the sky.
An Kirin slowly swam backstroke through the sea of vital energy with a bored expression on his face, revealing his cute, round stomach.
He was no longer able to beat the flaming vermilion bird. It was all An Lin’s fault for absorbing the energy from that drop of vermilion bird blood essence, otherwise, he would still be able to fight on par with the vermilion bird.
Thankfully, the vermilion bird wasn’t fond of battle, and it let him go after pushing him around for a bit.
An Kirin was very depressed. Even though the vermilion bird wasn’t pushing him around anymore, he always felt like the bird was goading him by showing off its superiority, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Right at this moment, the sea of vital energy suddenly began to surge violently, attracting the attention of both An Kirin and the flaming vermilion bird.
An Kirin turned toward a certain direction, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
He discovered that a black whale had suddenly appeared in the sea of vital energy!
The whale looked around with puzzlement flashing in its golden eyes. It was clearly at a complete loss with regard to how it had ended up here.
Right at this moment, a golden baby with lightning revolving around his body leaped onto its head before jumping up and down in excitement as if its head were a massive trampoline.
The whale had never been humiliated like this before. It instantly let loose an enraged roar, sending massive waves cascading through the sea of vital energy as it unleashed a vicious headbutt directly upward!
Bam!
An Kirin was headbutted into the sky, and the devastating force almost caused his entire body to crumble.
The whale didn’t know where it was, but it was a mighty Body of Chaotic Essence that refused to be humiliated by anyone.
It looked up at An Kirin with a scornful smile as he was headbutted into the sky.
It was invincible wherever it was.
Boom boom boom!
A series of resounding booms erupted in the air above.
A chill suddenly ran down the whale’s spine as its entire body was enveloped by a sense of extreme danger.
It looked up and was greeted by the sight of countless bolts of golden lightning descending from the sky with devastating destructive force!
In that instant, the entire sea of vital energy was transformed into a sea of lightning as An Kirin unleashed all his pent-up negative emotions from being bullied by the white vermilion bird. The Golden Void Lightning struck, and the sound of a whale’s anguished howling reverberated throughout the entire sea of vital energy.
Was An Kirin powerful? Of course he was. An Lin was able to unleash power equivalent to a Return to Void Stage cultivator just by borrowing An Kirin’s Golden Void Lightning.
An Kirin had the home-court advantage here, and after being oppressed by so long by the white vermilion bird, it certainly wasn’t going to lose to a Body of Chaotic Essence that had already been weakened.
Thus, the whale experienced a full three seconds of complacency before having the crap blasted out of it by An Kirin.
…
After witnessing all this in his sea of vital energy, An Lin finally retracted his gaze.
He was then greeted by the sight of everyone looking at him with a smorgasbord of different expressions. There was shock, there was incredulity, there was curiosity, and there was scorching admiration and reverence…
“What are you all looking at?” An Lin pursed his lips.
“Mr. An Lin, did you really just swallow the Heavenly Void Spirit?” the Night Patrol God asked in a trembling voice.
“Does your body feel strange in any way? How did it taste? Is your stomach in pain from swallowing such a gargantuan creature?” Celestial Maiden He didn’t know what to say, so she decided to offer some words of concern…
An Lin rolled his eyes. “It’s not like I actually ate the damn thing! It’s in my sea of vital energy now!”
“Gasp!” Everyone drew another collective intake of sharp breath.
It’s in his sea of vital energy? How is that even possible?!
“Bodies of Chaotic Essence can be stored in the sea of vital energy?” Even Tobias, who was still meditating to recover from his injuries couldn’t help but ask.
“I don’t know. In any case, I have a little baby and a small vermilion bird in there already, so the whale isn’t exactly a bizarre new addition,” An Lin said as he splayed his hands before him with a resigned expression.
Everyone: “…”
Celestial Maiden He: “Are we even doing the same cultivation?”
Xiao Ze was extremely excited. “As expected of my master, you’re so awesome!”
“Then does that mean we’ve taken care of the Body of Chaotic Essence?” Chang He asked.
An Lin shook his head upon hearing this. “The effect of my spell technique can only last for a duration of ten minutes; which means that it should reappear here in ten minutes.”
He knew that the effect of the Divine Plunder Technique wasn’t permanent.
Once the time limit of ten minutes passed by, the plundered ability would return to its original owner, and there was no reason why this whale would be an exception.
Everyone began to tense up again upon hearing this.
Thus, they began to discuss a course of action for when the Heavenly Void Spirit reappeared.
Time passed by slowly as ten minutes eventually dwindled down to a few seconds.
Celestial Maiden He and the others all stared at An Lin with cautious expressions, and An Lin himself was also starting to get nervous.
How would the Heavenly Void Spirit reappear? Would it pop out from his mouth like what An Kirin did? It was too big; there was no way it could fit!
That’s right, there was no way it could fit…
A chill suddenly ran down An Lin’s spine as a horrifying thought occurred to him.
Could it be… that he was going to self-detonate due to the gargantuan size of the whale?!
He immediately turned his gaze upon his sea of vital energy. At this moment, the whale, which was on the brink of death, suddenly detected a powerful summoning force, as if the world from which it had originated was summoning it back to its home.
Tears began to well up in the whale’s eyes. Its power had been significantly weakened here, thereby allowing the monstrous little lightning human to beat the living crap out of it. But now, it finally had a chance to return home! Happiness struck far too abruptly!
Its body slowly floated upward as it leaped toward a certain space.
An Kirin surveyed the floating whale with curiosity and puzzlement on his face.
A smug smile appeared on the whale’s face, and it spat out a mouthful of saliva at An Kirin…
“You’re all trash that are trapped in this prison! See you never!” The whale imparted a farewell message.
An Kirin’s expression faltered upon hearing this.
The flaming vermilion bird that was only spectating from above also faltered in its movements.
In the next instant.
Lightning wreaked havoc throughout the entire sea of vital energy!
The Holy Vermilion Flame transformed the sea of vital energy into a sea of scorching flames!
The whale let loose a series of heartwrenching cries.
At the same time, the summoning power was completely obliterated by the monstrous holy flames and golden lightning!
…
One minute later, the whale floated along on the sea of vital energy, seemingly on the brink of death.
An Kirin created a set of lightning reins that he tied around the whale’s head so that he could ride on it around the sea of vital energy.
Meanwhile, the flaming vermilion bird blasted scorching holy flames from time to time onto the whale’s backside…
An Lin: “…”
My God! Is this what it looks like to shoot oneself in the foot?!
Everyone fell silent for a moment.
Everyone turned to An Lin with curiosity on their faces. “It has already been ten minutes, where’s the Body of Chaotic Essence?”
An Lin’s lips twitched slightly. “I don’t know what happened, but it appears that the whale has been permanently confined in my sea of vital energy…”
Everyone: “…”
“Really? Then our spell techniques…” Chang He asked uneasily.
An Lin nodded. “You can retract them now. I can feel that the summoning power that would allow it to return has disappeared.”
Everyone heaved a collective sigh of relief, but at the same time, they all experienced an inexplicable sense of disappointment.
This was like everyone preparing their sure-kill techniques in preparation to bombard a BOSS, only to find that the BOSS wasn’t going to turn up…
At the same time, the Heavenly Void Beast suddenly felt as if it had lost something after the power of summoning was dispelled.
Its massive body of several thousand feet in length shuddered involuntarily…
