Chapter 1331: The Big Meatball

Sigma_ SSins

The starlight curtain above their heads could resist the fierce downpour. Shi Yan put on a heaven countenance. He was surprised too.

Xia Xin Yan was sensitive enough to see the slightest change on his face and the scream. "Did you find something?"

"Someone is coming."

Shi Yan had an idea. He released his Soul Consciousness and revealed his life energy fluctuation.

He wanted to know if DeCarlos and Lei Di came here on purpose.

A wisp of Soul Consciousness flew out and flashed in the middle of the outer space streamers. He focused on observing.

Indeed, they were heading here!

Surprisingly, DeCarlos and Lei Di came to this area together. When Shi Yan had released his Soul Consciousness, DeCarlos and Lei Di looked surprised. They exchanged looks and frowned. Then, they turned into two beams of lightning and crossed the distance immediately.

In the next moment, Lei Di and DeCarlos had arrived by Shi Yan and Xia Xin Yan. When the two Second Sky of Immortal Realm experts saw Shi Yan, they had awkward expressions.

"Why are you here?" DeCarlos asked as he couldn’t make head or tail out of it.

Shi Yan had the same doubt. "So why are you here?"

"You’re the one who gifted me that pure energy!" at the same time, Xia Xin Yan cried. Her beautiful eyes had a magical light. She looked at DeCarlos and pried. "We don’t know each other. Why did you pour that amount of pure energy on me?"

"Because you’re cultivating Time power Upanishad. In this vast sea of stars, you’re not the only expert cultivating this power, but you have the highest realm." DeCarlos looked at her, his voice tender and happy. "It seems like the evil barrier in your heart is clear. Yeah, it’s really good. Now, you can continue to break through and progress faster."

"I quite don’t understand your idea."

"For the time being, you don’t need to understand it. Your realm is still a little low. When the time comes and your realm becomes sufficient, I will tell you the reason."

"Why are you here?"

DeCarlos suddenly furrowed his brows and quieted down. Taking a deep breath, he looked at the clouds around and then Shi Yan and Xia Xin Yan. He asked, "How did you get here?"

"Coincidence."

Shi Yan rubbed his forehead. Pondering for a while, he thought he should tell them the truth. Perhaps they could provide him with more precise information. Thus, he told them the situation. "A friend of mine came here unintentionally. I guess those clouds have captured her. I came her following her life energy fluctuations..."

"Those aren’t clouds!" said Lei Di all of a sudden.

DeCarlos looked at him. "Are they related to the ones of your Heavenly Monster Tribe?"

Lei Di shook his head. Hesitating for a while, he turned to Shi Yan. "You should ask him. I think he knows it better than I do."

DeCarlos’ eyes brightened. He didn’t pretend to go around the bush. "Kid, do you feel anything familiar here? Did you sense the distinctive aura of the very first generation of Heavenly Monster Tribe around here?"

Shi Yan observed the surroundings including innumerable clouds and the strange downpour. He pried, "You mean there is some creature living around here?"

Lei Di and DeCarlos nodded.

"No, there’s no aura of Heavenly Monster Tribe’s precursors. Otherwise, I would have sensed it before. When I was in Thunder Firmament Star Area and saw the thunder wisps of a soul for the first time, I could feel the magical aura instantly. I didn’t have such a feeling here," Shi Yan said.

Listening to him, Lei Di and DeCarlos went stern.

After a while, DeCarlos said in a low-pitched voice. "We were wrong. It’s not one of Heavenly Monster Tribe’s precursors. So... What is it? Isn’t it a creature from our universe?"

"What are you guys talking about?" Shi Yan sounded bewildered.

DeCarlos looked at him and hesitated, "That thing always exists in this space basin. It has swallowed countless warriors who had fallen into this area accidentally. It’s really bizarre. Its body seems to detach or divide into many pieces and scatter throughout the many deathtraps in this area. I’ve been living for so many years in the turbulent space basin. I’ve encountered its existence in many zones. It has a life consciousness. It can gather energy here. It can move, but it has never contacted any other creature..."

Talking about this strange creature, DeCarlos looked baffled and worried somehow.

"If these aren’t clouds, are they its body?" asked Xia Xin Yan.

It was unknown why DeCarlos didn’t treat Shi Yan with care. He sounded a little harsh, though. However, when he talked to Xia Xin Yan, he was very gentle. He even paid attention to Xia Xin Yan’s question.

"The clouds are just the cover. Let me show you its real form. Take a look." DeCarlos made the hand seal. His ten fingertips joined and sharp blades shot out, attacking one dark cloud.

The sharp blades were like pairs of scissors that peeled the dark cloud as if someone was peeling off a tangerine. The cloud was pared, releasing wisps of smoke.

All of a sudden, an ugly thing emerged nakedly...

That thing was a gray-brown chunk with many small dots like snot from a runny nose or some soft maggots. Somehow, it looked more like sarcomas or a meat lumps. This gross thing could even move!

After a glance, Xia Xin Yan was filled with loathing. "So disgusting!"

"This area has more than dozens of thousands of clouds. Each cloud has a thing like that that keeps the warriors inside. They are the ones who have come here accidentally. Those things have captured them and killed them slowly. Those clouds are ugly meatballs or malicious tumors. Sometimes, they gather but most of the time, they stay separate like this. I want to tell you one more thing. There are many areas with the same clusters of clouds like this in the chaotic space currents. I’ve seen a lot. However, with my cultivation base, I can’t survey the ends of the current. I guess there will be more of these in the deeper and further area..." DeCarlos explained.

Shi Yan and Xia Xin Yan were frightened. They were baffled and they couldn’t say anything.

This infinite chaotic space basin had many areas with this sort of creature that was like malignant tumors. No one knew how long they had been there and how many warriors of many eras they had swallowed.

DeCarlos didn’t know if it had a high intellect or not.

It was because he had never talked to it. However, DeCarlos had a vague feeling that it did have intelligence and a complete consciousness. Thus, he thought the reason why it didn’t want to communicate with him was that it disdained him...

"I have an absurd feeling. I feel like it disdains to talk to us because it assumes that we don’t deserve it. It’s like we don’t talk to a bug because we’re a high-level creature and a bug is just a lowly insect. There’s a distance we can’t cover..." added DeCarlos.

"Absurd! Really absurd! I’m sure you’re wrong." Even Lei Di couldn’t stand it. He shook his head continuously, doubting DeCarlos’s feeling.

"Except for you, who knows about its existence?" asked Shi Yan.

DeCarlos snorted. "I don’t know. As far as I know, no one else knows about it and is still alive. Xuan He, Frederick, and Tian Xie have profound realms, but their territories are somewhere else. They are restricted a lot in this space basin. They can’t stay here for a long time."

"So why are you here? What’s your purpose?" Shi Yan asked again.

"He thinks it’s a hidden danger. We can’t talk to it, so we decided to destroy it. We will destroy each of the gathering spots he’s found. We don’t want to leave any seed of potential dangers." Different from his friend, Lei Di explained to Shi Yan calmly and gently.

Shi Yan had revived him and Shi Yan had the Origin of his homeland. From deep in his soul, he felt close to Shi Yan instinctively.

It was the soul streak that existed in his soul since he was born. He could never erase it.

"Destroy it here?" Shi Yan grinned. "Good thought. I have the same idea. It seems like we have the same voice here."

"You’ve tried," DeCarlos frowned, his face severe. "Although your realm’s not high, you have the Origin of the Ancient continent. You have the heaven flames. I heard that heaven flames can refine any kind of creature. You’ve tried, but you didn’t succeed?"

Lei Di’s face darkened. "Is it really hard to destroy this thing?"

"Perhaps it’s because I haven’t fused with my heaven flame utterly. But it’s really peculiar, indeed," nodded Shi Yan.

DeCarlos wore a stern face, his line of sight raking around. After a while, he talked to Shi Yan. "Today, your Bloodthirsty Force and the God Clan are in furious war. You ignore your business and come here for what? Lei Di and I will solve the problem here. You should leave soon. Don’t waste Xuan He and Ming Hao’s appreciation for you."

"A friend of mine has gone missing," Shi Yan snorted.

"Ah, because of a girl, haha. Kid, you have my style from before!" Lei Di laughed and grumblingly shook the entire void. He cocked his head, looking at Xia Xin Yan and grinning. "You got two beautiful ladies at the same time. Bold!"

Both Lei Di and Azure Dragon had the lustful blood of the Dragon Clan. Rumors said that the two ancestors of Heavenly Monster Tribe Lei Di and Qing Xiao had turned their backs to each other because of women.

"Moreover, Elder Spark of the God Clan just died. Fiery Rain Star Area won the first victory. Of course, Xuan He, Ming Hao, and Frederick have managed all the details of the bigger battles. I don’t need to worry a lot," said Shi Yan indifferently.

He knew his capacity. Before he had reached the Immortal Realm to be finally equal to Quan He and Ming Hao, the newly elected Master of the Bloodthirsty Force was just a puppet.

He could step on this throne because Xuan He, Ming Hao, and Frederick thought that it would be easier and more "legal" for him to have the voice as the Master.

Unless Xuan He, Ming Hao, and Frederick didn’t mind Bloodthirsty’s rules, they couldn’t call all the warriors cultivating the eight power Upanishads to launch the war against the God Clan.

"If you insist on staying, I will tell you more things. It’s true that you can help us a little more," DeCarlos pondered for a while and then nodded.

Shi Yan’s eyes brightened.
