My Divine Beasts Are Chapter 18: Eating

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I supposed to do?

Little Spider was stunned!

Wasn't she just playing happily with the Peach Pigs? How did it turn into poisoning in the blink of an eye?

Could it be that everything she had just experienced was an illusion, and this was the reality?

Thinking of this, Little Spider couldn't help but pinch herself.

Oof—

So painful! o(╥﹏╥)o It made this Dream-type Overlord cub lose all its confidence…

Finally confirming it wasn't an auditory hallucination, Little Spider fell silent for a mont before her expression beca resolute.

She walked to the river's edge, step by step.

Since it was her master's choice, she would stand firmly by his side, even if it ant becoming an enemy of the world, let alone poisoning a group of Peach Pigs.

Crack!

The void behind Little Spider tore open, and a single Void Eye appeared.

Only this ti, a drop of purple liquid condensed within its pupil.

This was not a tear, of course, but the Void Toxin ford by compressing the Void Dissolving Light Ray.

Just one drop could contaminate an entire water source, and any creature that drank from it would be eroded by the Void Toxin.

Their bodies would crystallize before bang!—exploding into a cloud of Crystal Powder.

Goodbye, little piggies!

Little Spider turned her head away, unable to bear the scene that would follow.

But in the next second, she was lifted into the air by the scruff of her neck.

Boom!

The Void Eye was about to counter-attack, but it imdiately powered down upon seeing who it was and retracted back into the void.

The newcor was, naturally, Lu Yu.

He had just turned off the running water to prevent it from affecting the next step, but then he saw Little Spider's series of actions and rushed to stop her in a panic.

He let out a sigh of relief only after seeing that the Venom had not dripped into the water, and asked in bewildernt:

"What are you doing?"

"Ying ying?" Little Spider asked back, her face full of confusion.

'Didn't Master tell

to poison them?'

Lu Yu: "…"

'I told you to use Dream Toxin!'

'If they aren't all knocked out, where will your food co from?'

If Lu Yu hadn't noticed in ti, all his hard work from this period would have been for nothing, and he would have been saddled with a huge debt.

He almost beca a Man of Debt!

His plan was simple. Since he couldn't feast on human dreams on a large scale, he would just find an intelligent creature to act as a substitute.

After all, this was a magnificent and vast Beast Taming World. Most Extraordinary Lifeforms possessed high intelligence, and there were many among them who were far smarter than humans.

The Peach Pigs were one such species. A young Peach Pig had the intelligence equivalent to a five or six-year-old human, and an adult was equivalent to a ten-year-old, placing their IQ on the higher end among similar demonic beasts.

(In reality, pigs are also highly intelligent and clean.)

It was precisely this intelligence that made them more resistant to being fard, even causing them to beco depressed, go on hunger strikes, or even commit suicide.

But even so, they were no match for Lu Yu, who, with his 【Eye of Truth】, had constructed a complete Ecological Zone where they could live and reproduce freely.

High intelligence ant they could dream.

Compared to frail humans, these sturdy Peach Pigs would at most feel ntally drained for a day or two, even after having a large portion of their dreams consud.

Under his cultivation, the entire Peach Blossom Forest breeding base already had seventy-nine adult Peach Pigs, fifty of which were female, a veritable pig Customs Shop.

Therefore, including the pregnant ones, the number of cubs was close to seventy, almost doubling the total.

The dreams of over a hundred Peach Pigs could not only feed Little Spider but also greatly strengthen the Dream Prison.

"Ying ying!"

After realizing it was a misunderstanding, Little Spider also breathed a sigh of relief and then cast her Spider Silk, imbued with the power of dreams, into the water.

The Spider Silk, smooth as top-grade silk, dissolved upon hitting the water.

But if one looked closely, one could see countless minuscule threads flowing with the stream, which were then drunk by the Peach Pigs who were tired from playing.

About an hour later, all the Peach Pigs collapsed and fell asleep.

Even the Great Peach Pig King swayed and fell to the ground.

Within Little Spider's Mind's Eye perception, over a hundred Dream Bubbles rose from the sleeping pigs, hovering in the space between illusion and reality.

The feeding thods of Dream-type pet beasts were generally divided into two types.

The first was to hide within a creature's dream and manipulate it to cause intense emotional fluctuations in the target.

This would damage their spirit, causing a large amount of Dream Energy to leak out, which they would then devour.

Nightmares, for example, induced fear in their targets to ravenously devour dream power, completely draining them before consuming their soul.

For instance, joy, anger, the indescribable, and so on…

The second thod was to directly destroy the dream. After the dream shattered, Dream Fragnts would be left behind.

This process would jolt the target awake, leaving them ntally weak for a period.

As for 【Dream Eating】, it could fold a dream and devour it directly.

It was similar to the second thod but with higher efficiency, and it was the divine skill Lu Yu had been coveting.

As for Lu Yu, he wasn't a monster.

So he chose to use both thods at once.

Because the reproductive desires of these Peach Pigs had recently decreased quite a bit, he had Little Spider first weave them beautiful Dreams of Reproduction, letting them see beauty-maxed pigs striking seductive poses, only to shatter the dream at the critical mont.

For the piglets, she would simulate hunger so that they would want to eat upon waking up, allowing them to gain weight quickly.

Even if they would be ntally weakened, their constitution, far superior to humans', would leave them with a lingering desire.

By doing this at the mont of their most intense emotions, he could harvest a large number of Dream Fragnts while also promoting the Peach Pigs' reproduction and growth!

Lord Lu was truly too kind!

Once the scale of the operation grew, he would directly research Illusion Pig Farming.

"Ying!"

Little Spider naturally raised her six hands to agree with her master; she was also starving.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Countless illusory spider silks extended from behind her, precisely entangling one dream after another, and she began to simulate targeted scenarios.

The Dream Bubbles continued to expand.

During this process, Little Spider discovered a sow who disliked everything, but it turned out she thought the breeder slled nice and longed for her master to pet her and play with her…

Then, Little Spider gave her a Nightmare with a deadpan expression.

While Little Spider was busy, Lu Yu looked around and spotted an Internal Traitor.

In the Peach Blossom Forest, the Great Peach Pig King lay on the ground, secretly squinting, quietly watching the other Peach Pigs dream, a human-like, disdainful smile on its lips.

Great Peach Pig King sees through everything.

jpg!

This guy was obviously faking sleep from the very beginning!

'They say an old man is a cunning man, and a pig that lives long enough is just as treacherous!'

Lu Yu marveled, but he didn't intervene.

Because this one had lived a long ti and was smart enough.

During the three months of care, Lu Yu had noticed that it was the least resistant to being fard by humans. After building a rapport with it, he also learned the reason.

Because in the wild, most groups would attach themselves to a powerful existence, regularly offering Blood Food. In essence, it was the sa as being fard—exchanging a portion of the clan for the continuation of the group.

The strong prey on the weak; it is the Law of Nature.

What's more, the breeding base was safe, with no shortage of food or drink.

It was a complete paradise.

As for the other Peach Pigs, they had never experienced such hardship, and coupled with their high intelligence, they were prone to making trouble.

If Lu Yu hadn't appeared, they would likely have ended up on the dinner table.

Therefore, as long as its life wasn't threatened or its clan mbers weren't being slaughtered en masse, the Great Peach Pig King would often choose to play dumb.

This was a form of survival wisdom.

Hearing the low croaks of frogs from the river, Lu Yu also narrowed his eyes and waited quietly.

Hiss! Hiss!

As the Dream Bubbles continued to expand, a large amount of Dream Energy, like grains of rice, overflowed. It was wrapped in Spider Silk and transported to Little Spider.

"Ying!"

Although she was on the verge of starvation, Little Spider wasn't rushed. Instead, she molded the energy into the size of a Rice Ball and ate it bite by bite, as noble and elegant as a princess.

After replenishing a large amount of energy, her pale face finally gained a rosy hue, and the spreading Spider Silk beca increasingly tough.

"Hic—"

After eating more than ten Rice Balls, Little Spider couldn't help but let out a hiccup, her face flushing slightly.

Feeling it wasn't very ladylike, she beca a little shy.

She stole a glance at her master, and seeing that he hadn't noticed, she happily extended a slender hand and clenched it in the air.

Pop! Pop! Pop!

The Dream Bubbles instantly burst, creating hundreds of Dream Fragnts. They were collected, stored in a box made from Threads of Dream, and placed inside the Void Treasure Chest she had created.

The space inside was a full cubic ter, large enough to store quite a few things.

Snort, snort!

As the dreams shattered, the Peach Pigs all startled awake, letting out panicked squeals and instinctively trying to flee.

But after realizing it was just a dream, they quickly cald down. Looking at their companions, the residual flas of desire surged.

re ntal discomfort was completely unable to suppress their instincts. They paired up, plump and ready, preparing to sneak off to a Little Grove.

The Great Peach Pig King, seeing it had faked it long enough, instantly channeled its inner Film Emperor. It got up groggily and was about to let out a couple of howls when it saw Lu Yu's cold gaze turned toward it, his tone indifferent:

"Do it!"

As his voice fell, the void behind him tore open, stirring up a fierce wind that whipped Little Spider's silver hair.

Her skirt billowed as she revealed her true Complete Form, like a Void Queen.

Six Void Eyes materialized, and the Void Dissolving Ray instantly condensed, firing in a flash of brilliant purple light that tore through the air!

The Great Peach Pig King was dumbfounded.

'I was just slacking off, you don't have to kill

for it!'

'I'll even sleep with you, okay?!'
