Long Yi actually intended to devour the Divine Worm without relying on the God Eaters? This was by no ans a wise act, as they, being Divine Worms, knew all too well that even though Long Yi was a true god of the Trinity, he was still unable to prevent the parasitism of the Divine Worms. If, at this mont, one of the Divine Worms was lucky enough to successfully parasitize Long Yi’s consciousness, then by leveraging the innate sense between Divine Worms, it could easily locate the others in any corner of the plane, and, with Long Yi’s power, that Divine Worm could beco the sole Divine Worm of this plane!
"Damn it!" Simu cursed under her breath, feeling an unprecedented level of tension.
"I think we need to take action. We should test the reality of that Long Yi," Yahola said, sitting in the back row. He had just been defeated by Long Yi and escaped empty-handed to this place, making him the weakest and the most despised.
"Really? Then I suppose you’d certainly be willing to take on that important task, wouldn’t you?" another Divine Worm inquired.
"Yes, of course I’m willing, after all, you definitely wouldn’t expect to go empty-handed, would you?" Yahola replied with a smile.
The Divine Worm that had intended to mock Yahola didn’t expect that Yahola truly wanted to go. It seed Yahola had been waiting for this chance for a long ti, as he had just experienced defeat and was in need of an opportunity for resurgence. Clearly, such an opportunity was before him. The surrounding Divine Worms all feared Long Yi, but Yahola did not fear him to the sa extent. As a Divine Worm, he had fully integrated with the being Yahola, aning there was no true Divine Worm presence here. The threat of Long Yi’s God Eaters was still present, but it was no longer as formidable as before.
In fact, if anyone was suited to confront Long Yi, it would be Yahola.
"What do you want?" Simu inquired.
"Warriors, mighty warriors, strong enough to reclaim the territories I’ve lost," Yahola responded with a smile.
The eting didn’t directly yield any results, for when it ca to Long Yi, every Divine Worm exercised extre caution. Long Yi represented nearly insurmountable advantages and any careless probing could spell disaster for them.
"It seems Yahola has not forgotten his share of the pirate’s treasure," Turun remarked, seated in a traditionally decorated small study. Simu was also here, along with three Divine Worms from different races. Usually, only these five individuals would be present, but today Ika was here too, having won his place with his strength.
"After all, he isn’t entirely one of us; rather than saying he’s one of our kind, it’s more accurate to say he’s one of mankind," said Simu.
"So, what’s your take on this, Mr. Ika?" an elder spoke up. He had previously had a dispute with Yahola, and fundantally, he detested Yahola.
"In my opinion, Yahola’s desire to test the waters is a farce. Long Yi’s power is almost indisputable; what he really wants is to seize the opportunity to reclaim his territory," Ika stated.
"Indisputable power of Long Yi? Ha ha ha, that’s quite an amusing statent. If I weren’t absolutely sure you are one of us, I might even think you are Long Yi’s spy," said another Divine Worm.
"Am I wrong? If Long Yi is not powerful, then why are we hiding here?" Ika countered. The person’s complexion changed slightly, and he didn’t continue the conversation, rely huffing heavily and falling silent.
"Can you elaborate on what happened then?" Simu asked Ika. It was nearly the only known victory of a Divine Worm over Long Yi, and if possible, they hoped to replicate this success. After all, snatching a Divine Worm from Long Yi’s grasp and devouring it was sothing the others didn’t even dare to dream about.
"There are no details to tell, everything I know is what I’ve already told you. I saw Long Yi in the midst of chaos, I sneaked up, stole so Divine Worms and devoured them, that’s all. If you want to replicate this victory, you can try, as long as Long Yi is still in chaos at that mont, I think you will be successful. But one way or another, I will absolutely not go again," Ika stated earnestly.
Simu glanced at Turun beside her. They had originally planned to obtain so actionable details from Ika, but he had not been cooperative. They did not believe what Ika said was the truth; in their view, Ika must have concealed so very important details, which he was hiding in order to gain greater benefits from Long Yi in the future!
However, since Ika was not forthcoming at this ti, they had no way of forcing him to speak. Considering the previous encounter between Ika and the Lobster General, Ika’s strength was formidable; the other Divine Worms present would not rashly provoke him without knowing the extent of his power. Any irrational act could let other Divine Worms seize the opportunity. To devour one’s own kind was an instinct etched into their very being.
Yahola eventually obtained his own army, an army made up of Autocha soldiers fused with Leviathan worms. In this force, the Leviathan worms acted as the thinking module, while the Autocha soldiers were responsible for combat. The army of Autocha soldiers was supplied by the golden warship, and Turun equipped them with trendous combat power, coupled with the thinking capabilities of the Leviathan worms, they believed this Golem army would surely help Yahola turn the tide.
But what none of the Divine Worms anticipated was that Yahola, with his army, did not go on to carry out his revenge. Instead, he went directly to Long Yi!
"I surrender, sincerely," Yahola declared in front of Long Yi.
As it turned out, Yahola had realized sothing quite early on: he was no longer just a Divine Worm. Although he retained so attributes of a Divine Worm, he was essentially no different from a human, and the act of devouring his kind was no longer of any concern to him. He also didn’t want to beco a true god; the only thing he relished was luxury and wealth. Given this, there was no irreconcilable conflict between him and Long Yi. Rather than spending each day hiding in that godforsaken place, trembling with fear and suffering indignation, always wary of Long Yi possibly appearing suddenly and annihilating them, it was better to surrender outright. However, to surrender so blatantly would surely lack sincerity. Therefore, Yahola ca directly with an army to surrender to Long Yi.
"If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would never dare to believe that Divine Worms could actually surrender," Long Yi said, looking at Yahola, who was kneeling on one knee.
"If I said I wasn’t a Divine Worm, you definitely wouldn’t believe , but in fact, I am truly not a pure Divine Worm; I am now more like a human," Yahola said.
"Then, as a sign of sincerity, would you be willing to undergo an examination?" Long Yi asked.
"Of course!" Yahola hesitated for a mont, then said.
"I thought you would refuse."
"Because I am very clear that if you wanted to kill , you wouldn’t need to ask for my opinion," Yahola said.
"Very well," Long Yi smiled.
The Divine Law Mask appeared, and the gluttonous snake appeared simultaneously.
Under the judgnt of the Divine Law, Yahola at that mont was truly defined as a ’human-like life form.’ However, within his body, the Divine Law still detected the presence of a Divine Soul and Divine Status.
The God Eater suddenly burrowed into Yahola’s body and then left with a red wave pattern in its mouth. Yahola could feel that both the Divine Soul and consciousness had left him; he had beco a re human, and he could no longer sense the existence of the Divine Worms. Previously, Divine Worms sensed others of their kind through Divine Status and Divine Power, but now, he could no longer sense others of his kind, nor could the others sense him.
Afterward, Long Yi checked the hidden command within Yahola and found that the command which laid at the bottom of Yahola’s consciousness—devour your kind; beco a true god; return to the Divine Realm—had turned into ordinary mories and consciousness, and in Yahola’s mory, it wasn’t of high priority. At that mont, Yahola’s greatest desire was to survive, and beyond surviving, he longed for wealth and glory.
"Survival, I can give you; riches and honor, I can also provide. But what can you offer in return?" Long Yi asked with a smile. "Don’t ntion those automatic golems controlled by the Leviathan Worms; the Leviathan Worms originally belong to my side, and I have no interest in those automatic golems."
Upon hearing Long Yi’s words, Yahola’s heart grew sowhat calr; clearly, Long Yi wasn’t a very difficult person to communicate with.
"I can tell you where they are hidden, what makes up their strength. And most importantly, I can tell you so secrets about the Divine Worms," Yahola said.
"Secrets?" Long Yi was quite interested, as the analysis from the Divine Law and hearing it from them were two different things.
"Yes, I guess no one has told you before," Yahola said.
"You’ve piqued my interest," Long Yi said.
Yahola knew Long Yi would definitely be interested, and he had prepared everything. Since he had co to surrender, the Divine Worms would surely not spare him. Given that, why shouldn’t he help Long Yi to wipe out the Divine Worms completely? After all, he was now human, not a Divine Worm.
Yahola then related the origins of the Divine Worms, which were essentially the sa as what Long Yi knew, and he also recounted the hidden commands of the Divine Worms, which were no different from what Long Yi had known. However, what Yahola said next was unknown to Long Yi.
"Do you know why I chose to beco a human, rather than a Divine Worm?" Yahola asked.
"I don’t know," Long Yi truly couldn’t know.
"Because I saw the things we had done, and I am ashad of them," Yahola said.
"What exactly have you done?"
"Perhaps, you should take a look at fragnts of my mories, that will be more convincing," Yahola said. (To be continued. If you like this work, your votes at qidian and monthly tickets are greatly appreciated. Mobile users can read at m.qidian.)
