Chapter 1145 (2/2)
“I… I didn’t think of that . ” Meng Qi was caught off-guard, never having considered such a situation .
Long Chen mulled over this possibility . In the Immemorial Pathway, he had gone to the depths of it with the Eastern Wasteland Bell . There, he had seen an altar with a huge skull .
Although the Eastern Wasteland Bell had refused to answer his questions, he still felt that the Immemorial Pathway might very likely be the same as the Martial Heaven Sea-Ring . It was being manipulated by someone .
If it was possible that the Immemorial Path was being controlled, then what about the Martial Heaven Continent? If there really was someone secretly directing the Martial Heaven Continent, what kind of existence did they have to be? A G.o.d?
“Cloud, come back! Don’t get greedy!” Meng Qi was distracted by her talk with Long Chen, and in that moment, Cloud had secretly eaten an eighth rank sea demon . But Meng Qi had still caught it .
Long Chen shook his head . This kind of problem wasn’t one he should be pondering . Just the Central Plains was already so enormous . He would find the truth sooner or later .
“Meng Qi, just let Cloud eat . Its innate deficiency is essentially fixed, and there are no problems with its body now . When we get back, I’ll refine a pill to completely make up for any slight deficiency problem there still is,” said Long Chen .
The Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow looked incredibly pitiful . It was like a starving child How could they not let it eat?
Cloud immediately let out a bird cry and charged into the battlefield .
“You imp, you only know how to play good cop . ” Meng Qi rolled her eyes at Long Chen . But she didn’t order Cloud back .
Under her meticulous care, there was already no problem with Cloud’s body . Its innate deficiency was already made up for . But Meng Qi was a cautious and meticulous person, and she was afraid of any possible accidents . And so she didn’t let Cloud eat too much .
As for Long Chen, he didn’t think the problem was too big . Each time, Cloud would put on such a pitiful appearance . Cloud was very smart, and as soon as Long Chen spoke, it flew off . It knew Meng Qi wouldn’t refuse Long Chen .
“Hey, that’s a ninth rank sea demon!” cried Meng Qi as she saw a ninth rank sea demon’s corpse rapidly shrinking and flying toward Cloud’s mouth .
“Just leave it . Meng Qi, don’t worry so much . Cloud is an ancient species with its own inheritance . If there really was danger, it would sense it itself . By constantly restricting it and not letting it act on instinct, you’ll end up restricting its cultivation base,” persuaded Long Chen .
“Fine, I admit I was just too concerned . ” Meng Qi thought about it for a while and bitterly smiled .
Long Chen held her hand . “It’s because you promised Cloud’s mother that you are feeling so much pressure . But in reality, you aren’t a G.o.d, and you don’t know what will happen in the future . Let Cloud be . ”
Meng Qi understood what he was saying . She cared too much about Cloud, and pampering it wasn’t necessarily a good thing . It would be better if Cloud was given more room to grow .
After devouring a ninth rank sea demon, Cloud’s rainbow colors lit up, and a powerful aura erupted . Cloud’s body rapidly grew, and it instantly advanced to the seventh rank .
Meng Qi was startled . Cloud was truly worthy of being a Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow . That powerful ninth rank sea demon was instantly digested as soon as it entered its stomach .
Furthermore, its aura was still very stable . There wasn’t the slightest weakening or sign of an empty cultivation base . This meant that Cloud really didn’t need to be worried about so much and could grow on its own .
Seeing this, Meng Qi sighed with relief . At the same time, she felt slightly ashamed . If Long Chen hadn’t persuaded her, she would have inhibited Cloud’s growth .
After advancing to the seventh rank, Cloud suddenly let out a heaven-shaking cry and shot toward a ninth rank sea demon .
Meng Qi jumped in fright as Cloud was still only at the seventh rank . She had just formed a hand seal when she was stopped by Long Chen .
“Sometimes, trust is the best encouragement . ”
BOOM!
That bull-headed fish-bodied ninth rank sea demon unleashed two rays of bright light at Cloud .
This was its full-strength attack, causing Meng Qi to turn pale . But when that light was about to strike, Cloud spread its feathers and vanished .
When Cloud reappeared, it was right in front of the ninth rank sea demon . It opened its mouth, and an azure thread of light shot out .
The thread of light pierced straight through the ninth rank sea demon’s head, instantly killing it . Then its corpse was pulled into Cloud’s stomach .
At this moment, a dozen ninth rank sea demons had surrounded Cloud . It simply flapped its wings, turning into a rainbow-colored light that vanished into the clouds .
