In the next instant, the monstrous creature known as "Gesila" had already traversed tens of thousands of ters.
There was no suspense, just an extrely faint "pff," and Ye Hanjun’s body was vertically cleaved open, each half symtrical and equal, the cut clean and clear, a perfect strike.
"Ahh!"
GuaGua, perched on his shoulder, was startled; it was its first ti seeing the big tadpole and didn’t hesitate to activate its life-saving trump card.
Before it could take any action, a beam of traction wrapped around it with a whoosh, forcibly pulling it into the Contract Space.
"Hiss!!"
Gesila bit towards the falling flesh, ready to gulp it down like a snack.
But it bit air; the corpse, which had seed completely cold just a mont ago, suddenly turned into a rainbow light.
It flickered a few tis, and then, with not even a drop of blood left behind, disappeared from perception.
Gesila furiously turned its gaze toward the earth.
The Dragon Bone worm lurking underground, as if sensing imminent disaster, suddenly changed direction, digging downwards at any cost.
"Gesila!!"
With one slash of its wing, the ground shook violently, pulverizing all touched solid matter, creating a fissure 500 ters long, 200 ters deep, and 30 ters wide, presenting a ferocious sight.
Deep underground, the Dragon Bone worm ultimately escaped.
But at a heavy price, fully one-third of its body was left behind on the surface, its origin greatly damaged.
Without colossal luck, its rank would remain at Imasurable Void Pull for the rest of its life, with no possibility of further advancent.
However, the instigator Gesila didn’t even bother to look.
Frustrated at the failure to kill two preys in a row, it furiously changed direction.
Subsequently, all living things it encountered were shattered, the withering of life blooming like flowers, day after day, ti after ti, seemingly without end.
...
Whoosh—
The rainbow light flashed rapidly, escaping thousands of miles in the blink of an eye, and finally fell into a dark valley.
The body, cleaved in two, slowly writhed, striving to fuse back together.
If anyone were to see this, they could surely observe.
Ye Hanjun’s scattered eyes refocused, his stiff fingers twitched, and vital life force from within dispelled the aura of death; he had co back to life.
"Cough cough cough..."
A series of urgent coughs were followed by the return of hearing.
With lingering fear, Ye Hanjun suddenly heard the snoring sounds of so colossal creature.
His temples throbbed with each sound’s intensity and each tremble’s magnitude, clearly indicating the extrely close proximity between them.
"Great, great, wolves in front, Tiger Leopards behind, Tomb of Asura... truly a worthwhile trip."
Ye Hanjun bit down hard on the tip of his tongue, ignoring the swelled, sore body, and did his utmost to conceal his presence.
An enormous creature lay asleep not a hundred ters away from him.
Weirdly, while other creatures were lying or prostrating on the ground, this one stood, its shoulders slumped.
With each deep breath, its nostrils twitched, and the thunderous snoring emanated from there, much like the clamor of drums and gongs, a lively ruckus indeed.
Ye Hanjun also noticed that the creature’s claws were exceptionally long, like bone talons extending from a corpse, undoubtedly possessing terrifying destructive power.
Yet its head was tiny in comparison to its massive torso, creating a sharp sense of dissonance.
"Sleeping Giant Otter..."
Muttering this term to himself, Ye Hanjun activated Talent Identification.
When he confird that the rank displayed in the ability section was "Imasurable Small Achievent," he rubbed his brow, a trace of blood returning to his pale face, then ca a sigh of resignation, followed by deeper contemplation.
Thanks to his promotion, "Miracle Survivor’s" "Miracle Dismbernt" was far more potent than "Survivor’s" "Self-Dismbernt."
In a short ti, this sole Active Ability could be used twice.
Especially the first usage; although injury to vitality was unavoidable, the proportion was significantly reduced, from the original "vitality greatly injured" to retaining 50 percent of the full state.
If he was on the brink of death before dismbernt, activating this Ability would instead forcibly restore him to a half-full state, effectively a fixed amount of healing.
Only by triggering dismbernt a second ti would he plunge into an absolute weak period, and without lengthy rest, even normal walking would pose great difficulties.
"Lucky it’s the Sleeping Giant Otter. If it were any other type of Fond Spirit, wouldn’t I be serving myself up on a platter?"
Having fully cald down, Ye Hanjun thought for a mont, then summoned GuaGua.
"Gua... um?"
The little guy, out of habit, wanted to make a noise to announce its arrival.
But Ye Hanjun, with quick reflexes, pressed its mouth shut, staring it down, silencing it.
"What’s up?" GuaGua acted cute, switching to ntal transmission.
Though it had witnessed the big tadpole being cleaved, which was kind of bloody,
since the big tadpole was alive and jumping around, there was no longer any need for it to worry.
"Here."
Ye Hanjun nudged with his lips, lifting GuaGua up with both hands.
"Oh, another big one."
"The snoring is even louder than a huge iron goose, like beating drums and gongs, so lively, huh?"
Switching to observer mode, GuaGua tiptoed, its nervous deanor sohow endearing.
Of course, its nerves weren’t quite the sa as Ye Hanjun’s.
He was aware of the creature’s strength, knowing that if a fight ensued, its might would be catastrophic, and with the current team setup, they had no capacity to withstand it.
GuaGua... was purely anxious about accidentally awakening the monster with its awkwardness.
