Chapter 1740: A Brutal Truth (1/2)
“Ow!” the Ripper Behemoth growled.
Its growl was earth-shattering, and waves of tearing force ripped the Rampage Behemoth’s large bloody mouth.
Many of the Rampage Behemoth’s jagged sharp teeth were shattered.
However, the pale beam of light was still crushed little by little by strands of crimson Blood Essence from the Rampage Behemoth.
The Rampage Behemoth’s Blood Essence secretly contained life power’s unique ability to swallow and absorb flesh power. Although it was impacted by the Ripper Behemoth’s residual strength, it still gnawed at the Ripper Behemoth.
Having been nourished by Nie Tian’s Blood Essence, it seemed to have inherited part of his bloodline power and talents.
This also enabled it to quickly get an overwhelming advantage in its battle against the Ripper Behemoth!
In the ancient Primal Era, the Star Behemoths had been well-deserved overlords, but they had actually fought each other constantly.
Because the Ripper Behemoth had been born near the end of the Primal Era, it had missed that bloody period, and the mutual annihilation in its memory was so faint that it might have forgotten what it meant to meet one of its own kind when it was weak and badly injured.
The Rampage Behemoth was different. It was a Star Behemoth that had survived the cruelest era.
It was its instinct to kill its own kind and use them to strengthen itself and restore its flesh aura...
Therefore, faced with the Ripper Behemoth that had been severely injured flying into the dark land, it launched an attack without even the slightest hesitation.
In the pale beam of light, the Ripper Behemoth whose Blood Essence was extremely condensed changed from furious snarling to agonized howling.
At this moment, it seemed to regret that it hadn’t listened to Zhao Shanling’s words and hadn’t left in time.
Watching the Rampage Behemoth suddenly rush out and swallow the Ripper Behemoth that had shrunk hundreds of millions of times over, Yin Xingtian and all the others felt cold in their hearts.
Yin Xingtian displayed his Godspan Sword Formation, while Master Blood Spirit, Feng Beiluo, and the others also braced themselves, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
They carefully guarded against the Rampage Behemoth, lest it, which Nie Tian had revived with boundless flesh aura from a mere bone, should kill them as well.
“Don’t worry,” Zhao Shanling said, glancing at them. “Apart from Master Blood Spirit, who has a mixed flesh aura inside his body, it won’t have any interest in any of you. But Master Blood Spirit’s flesh aura contains Nie Tian’s aura, so it won’t kill him either. So rest assured, you are not its target.”
Dong Li seemed a little uneasy. “We’d better be careful. As far as I know, when it was in the floating continent, the Ripper Behemoth helped Nie Tian remove the profound truths of death that the Bone Emperor has left in that bone. But what’s happening now? This recently-resurrected Rampage Behemoth didn’t even spare the one that once helped it.”
“Well...” Zhao Shanling, who felt slightly awkward, said, “I don’t know about that, but what I do know is that Jiang Yuanchi is probably going to die.”
The Rampage Behemoth, which had swallowed the Ripper Behemoth, seemed to follow Nie Tian’s will to hunt down and kill Jiang Yuanchi, which forced the sectmaster of the Shadow Society, who had found fortune in the Void World many times, to hide his light power.
His domain quickly morphed into a shadow domain that could only be partially seen around him.
Jiang Yuanchi seemed to know that he was no match for the Rampage Behemoth. However, he was unwilling to leave, so he took a roundabout route to see if he could luckily step into the Dark Abyss.
Zhao Shanling sneered. “How can you enter without the Void Spirit of Light?”
Dong Li was shocked. “Is a Void Spirit necessary if one wants to enter?”
“A Void Spirit is a kind of key,” explained Zhao Shanling. “The treasures you’ve obtained come from the Dark King and contain the ultimate Dao of darkness. Even if the Dark King is dead, the Dao of darkness that he comprehended can communicate with that ultimate darkness. So, as the one to obtain his legacies, you can get in.”
Hearing this, Master Blood Spirit shouted, “What about me?”
Feng Beiluo and Thunder Devil also shouted in unison, “What about me?”
Zhao Shanling pointed his chin at Master Blood Spirit and then Feng Beiluo. “You can’t. Neither can you.”
Then, he turned to the Thunder Devil. “You… have a chance, but I don’t know exactly how to make it happen.”
The Thunder Devil’s eyes lit up.
