Chapter 552: Chapter 454: Delicious Flavor, Climactic Confrontation
“That monster nad Leviathan, this isn’t the first ti I’ve seen it,” Leon said in a deep voice as he looked towards the gradually torn sky in the distance.
Algres showed a look of surprise on his face.
He kept his outer arms still while crossing his inner arms over his chest.
Feeling the terrifying presence of the Leviathan, vast as an abyssal ocean, he pondered, “Could it be that during your journeys through the Eternal Heaven, you encountered a similar crisis?”
“No,”
Ryan shook his head, rejecting Algres’ speculation.
...
He said outright, “The last ti I saw it was in a secret vault within the Royal Court, though that was also over five thousand years ago.”
Ryan’s voice carried a tone of reflection.
Algres remained silent, knowing that the following content concerned the secret history of the bygone Demon Dynasty.
He did not ask further, rely quietly playing the role of a listener.
“Twelve thousand years ago, that King Insect once led a reign on our holand. At that ti, the Kaleen Dynasty was at its pinnacle, with countless strong individuals. Yet even so, we still paid a trendous price to expel the pollution brought by the King Insect. An entire generation suffered heavy losses, and no less than ten Demon King Level beings fell.”
“That was also a turning point from prosperity to decline for the entire Demon Descendant race.”
“Compared to humans, Demon Descendants live much longer lives, but the downside is that our society beca decadent. Once the flas of war were ignited, they could never be extinguished. Because the Kaleen Dynasty lost its ability to suppress everything, tribes fell into destructive anarchy, with creatures suffering terribly and civilization regressing…”
“By the ti we slowly awoke from the fervor of war, reflecting on our past mistakes, it was already too late.”
Algres said in a low voice, “I know, in those tis, the beings from beyond the heavens descended upon our holand in sun-like gigantic ships. Cities were vaporized, and millions of civilians were mass-executed. Even the gods high above in the clouds were cast down from their thrones, transford into lab specins to breed evil creatures.”
“No wonder…”
Algres let out a soft sigh, “So there was such a connection; it’s no wonder records related to the King Insect were diligently erased. The royal family at the ti must have also deed such reasons too foolish.
An epic tale, both gloriously and tragically turned into a prelude to the extinction of a race.”
“If we do not face the mistakes we once made and draw lessons from them, we can never make progress,” Ryan said. “And in the Eternal Heaven, rife with endless warfare, not progressing ans being eliminated, ans complete extinction.”
“Well said.”
Algres’ face showed deep agreent.
“But there’s sothing that surprises ,” he stroked his chin, saying, “The Kaleen Dynasty at its peak, having paid such a heavy price, was it really only able to exile that monster, and not kill it completely?”
“Perhaps there were other considerations, or maybe so people’s selfish desires led them to use it to deplete the power of rival tribes.”
“In any case…
That monster successfully left this continent.
Now after more than ten thousand years, the physical wounds on it have healed, but its spiritual hunger is still unsatiated.”
“So, it has returned,” Algres shrugged his shoulders, saying, “Should we feel lucky now? It’s not us who have to worry about this ss. And do you think the human Dynasties, with their current strength, can withstand this disaster?”
“It’s not the human Dynasties, but the monster you and I talked about,” Ryan picked up his long sword and took a step forward to the edge of the cliff.
As the world trembled with the roar of the Leviathan King Worm.
The torn sky almost seed to have a hundred suns lit up, the intense light shining upon the robust body of the King of Demon Descendants, casting straight black lines in the air.
Algres looked in Leon’s direction, only feeling tears secreting from his own eyes.
But he didn’t care; his mind was wholly occupied with the thoughts brought on by the words Ryan said earlier. Amidst the sound of breaking branches, Algres ca beside Ryan, his voice taking on a hint of horror and climbing in pitch, “The Northern Border Demon Dragon is here too, how is this possible!? I didn’t detect its presence at all.”
“That can only an, during the ti you weren’t paying attention, that monster has gained sothing, becoming even stronger than before.” Despite the questioning from his subordinate, Ryan’s voice remained calm, conveying an unshakable ssage.
“Then, this might be a good opportunity…”
Algres’ eyes glistened with a ruthless light, and two sharp teeth stretched past his lips, “My King, by seizing this opportunity, perhaps we could rid ourselves of a major headache.”
Ryan did not express agreent or opposition to Algres’ suggestion.
He simply stated in his usual harmonious tone, “They are about to make their move.”
The sound of rushing water!
A succession of pebbles tumbled down the steep cliff face.
Then a huge hand clad in black armor reached out from the sky, enclosed around many insects scurrying outward in the ravine, grasped them in its grasp, and hoisted up.
They struggled furiously, screeching incessantly.
But within that massive hand as thick as a copper column, their efforts were utterly futile.
Unable to sway it the slightest bit.
Once hoisted up high in the sky, a gaping maw filled with sharp fangs opened below.
As the five fingers spread open, those grotesquely shaped Gold-eating Insects were all stuffed into Su Heng’s mouth, where a burst of vivid flavors exploded upon his taste buds.
Like a praying mantis, with elongated hind limbs, the flesh of these odd insects was tender, and those with shells crunched satisfyingly.
There was also one kind floating in mid-air.
From outside appearances, it looked like a human brain, dark in color, with many tendrils – a Brain Worm.
Such insects needed only a bit of pressure in the mouth to…
Explode with a “pop”.
A burst of sweet and sour liquid spilled out imdiately, providing a rich taste sensation.
“The flavor is really not bad,” Su Heng wiped a trace of juice from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand and slowly stood up from the steep shoreline. His body was imnse, but he had the Soul Path of the Spirit Void Dao Wood. Neither the hulking Bull Insects nor the Brain Worms proficient in Spiritual Power could detect Su Heng’s presence.
Therefore, he could slaughter at will, savoring these delights.
Su Heng originally intended to use Flesh Furnace to make a purchase here directly, but with the interdinsional general of the Leviathan King Worm around, the surrounding environnt was also peppered with spatial rifts of varying sizes. Su’s Flesh Furnace is essentially an extension of space-related Divine Skills. To forcibly activate it in such an environnt may damage the internal space.
Inside were so of his collected treasures, so after so deliberation, Su Heng dispensed with the idea.
And more importantly…
Although the quantity of these created insect swarms was not small, and their flavor also decently remarkable.
The nutrients they brought were actually quite limited, far less than the behemoth Su Heng was facing.
Boom!
As large sections of space fell away like shards of glass.
Thunder bood in the heavens, and amid the deafening roar, a vast Life Aura mixed with shockwaves swept across this ravine-woven plateau. As Su Hengxing walked upon a risen ridge, before him unfolded a grand vista of a Doomsday cataclysm. Beneath his feet was a torrent of myriad odd insects, and above him filled the sky, innurable Flying Dragon Species and Brain Worms drifting up and down.
He stopped at the tallest peak, swiping away a Flying Dragon that collided head-on with him.
Then, he looked up.
His expression was serene, yet his eyes flashed with a hint of bloodthirsty zeal.
Before Su Heng lay the central highland, a place once precipitous and steep, but now, under the aftereffects produced by the Leviathan general, it was flattened, further collapsing downward into a valley filled with molten lava. Surrounding mountain peaks crumbled one after another, the earth’s crust compressed by an indescribable colossal force, and the scorching red lava spewed hundreds of ters into the sky like blood gushing from arteries.
The firmant too was ablaze, swathes of lightning crashing down like a storm, with smoke and sulfur, thunder, and hurricanes everywhere the eye could see.
Explosions of extre intensity followed one after another, the resulting smoke swelling up like massive mushroom clouds.
Then two deford claws extended from within the clouds with a “sizzle”, and at that mont, Su Heng felt as if he heard the world’s wails. This Mythical Battlefield shuddered in pain, with torrents of blood raining down from the sky, and amid the maniacal laughter shaking the world, a fiery-red colossal head erged slowly from the expanding smoke.
Then ca the second, the third, the fourth…
A total of five heads.
Red, black, white, blue, green – each head was as vast as mountains, shrouded in misty red light, and the power contained within each was distinctly different. The entire world seed inverted under the thunder’s roar, fragnted and shattered, perhaps signifying that within the King Insect’s vast body, it wielded powers of various different dinsions.
Mountainous heads cloaked in thick Armor, and their chins were adorned with writhing tentacles.
Upon their appearance, they greedily surveyed their surroundings.
Seemingly searching for suitable prey, holding the sa objective as Su Heng, yearning to fill their insatiable stomachs with endless blood and slaughter.
Swiftly!
The first to erge, also the largest head, lowered downwards.
When those eyes, like molten fire, landed on Su Heng, a clear look of surprise flashed across its face.
Then the monster’s voice thundered across the sky, tearing the clouds within ten thousand ters to shreds, lightning striking, magma erupting. The Leviathan King Worm spoke with a lofty, mocking tone to Su Heng, “Do you hear? This world is breaking under my feet. It’s about to perish, but I can give you a chance to be reborn.”
“That’s such a pity,” Su Heng’s smile grew even more covetous, “but I have no plans to let you leave here alive.”
