Tolvaro then cautiously approached the old monk and knelt in front of him. The old monk grabbed the man’s head and was about to execute Buddhist Arts when suddenly, he felt great danger.
The old monk’s knee collided with Tolvaro’s face, giving him a nosebleed but the damage had already been done. There was a dagger piercing his leg and if that wasn’t enough, the dagger was laced with venom, powerful venom.
"You tricked me... and for that, it’s best you die!" said the old man and unleashed palm strikes. Tolvaro tried his best to avoid the attacks but the distance was just too close. Palm dents covered Tolvaro’s body, making him spit out blood directly on the old monk’s face.
[Buddhist Art: Arhat Fist!]
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Tolvaro was bombarded with attacks with attacks from the old monk and he couldn’t block even one of them and just endured the beating.
"Buddha is merciful, now let me take you to see hi...pffft!"
The old monk suddenly spat out black blood and his face became ashen and pale.
[Phew, it finally took effect. I don’t know how many more of your hits I could take before dying.] said Tolvaro with a cunning smile.
"You poisoned me? When?"
[Have you already forgotten about the dagger piercing your leg?]
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Tolvaro beat the monk black blue, his face was swollen to the point that he was unrecognizable and he was very weak now. Tolvaro then hoisted the old monk in the air as his teeth canines turned into sharp fangs.
[I love spicy and marinated blood.]
The Small Worlds that the Nether Tree roots managed to reach were devastated by the demons and the natives of these worlds were devoured and their demonic cultivators recruited into the Demon Race and Demonized by the Nether Tree.
As for the Small Worlds themselves, the Nether Tree’s roots dug deep into the ground until they reached the core of these planets and absorbed the Core energy. Once all the Core energy was absorbed, these planets then broke down, pulled towards the Anchor and assimilated into it, expanding it farther.
After that, the illusory roots would seek Small Worlds even further away and open portals there and continue the process over and over again.
"Baldy! You fucking liar! Does this fucking look like a spaceship to you?! Does it looks like a fucking spaceship! This is a space boat! A very slow space boat that will take us forever to reach our destination! What’s worse is that it keeps stopping on other worlds to recruit more cultivators to fight!"
"Calm down, everyone. I admit I made a mistake by calling the space boat a spaceship but I didn’t lie about everything else did I? If you feel like the boat is too slow then we can fly to the Demon Territory, I’m sure you all can sense its direction." hurriedly explained Baldy.
"That doesn’t sound like a bad idea. Let’s just fly there ourselves and get rid of all the demons. This way, no one will compete with us for our Son Of Heaven titles."
"I almost forgot how fun it is to fly in space!"
"Demon Territory! We’re coming for you! Just you wait!"
More than two months had passed since Zixin cocooned himself and after such a long time, cracks finally appeared around the cocoon.
Gozzl and the Nether Tree then waited and watched patiently as more cracks kept on spreading around the cocoon. A small hole was made in the cocoon and an orange larvae head with powerful mandibles protruded.
said Gozzl excitedly.
replied the Nether Tree.
Zixin in his beetle larva form started eating his cocoon and he was eating very fast. In fifteen minutes, the entire cocoon was devoured by him and his full appearance was revealed.
He was a grey larva that was ten meters long and four meters wide and had six arms. His larva body was still covered in tattoos but they were faint and vague like they would fade away over time. His six arms were dragon claws and also covered in scales. Zixin emitted a faint antiquity aura like he was a fossil from countless years ago and both the Nether Tree and Gozzl could feel it.
exclaimed the Nether Tree.
The demons that weren’t participating in the World Invasions also looked at Zixin with curiosity, especially Torta.
’So, this is My Lord’s right hand... I’m actually going to compete with a worm for the number one position! A fucking worm!’ said Torta inwardly. Shilin, who was also not participating in the invasions, looked at Zixin with a weird gaze.
’As a worm, can he even fight?’ he thought. Shilin was more worried about Zixin’s combat ability than anything else.
Zixin was oblivious to everyone’s thoughts including his own thoughts acted on instinct. He had lost his intelligence and was now relying on his instincts to survive. Still feeling very hungry, Zixin easily dug through the ground and disappeared in seconds and the hole he dug closed behind him.
The two powerhouses watched Zixin burrow deeper and deeper underground without stopping.
Zixin dug until he reached the core of the Anchor where there core was a mixture of black and grey with thick roots interwoven and coiled around the core. These roots were covered in runes and grey lines full of mystery and secrets. Zixin was very excited and rushed towards the roots and grabbed one thick root and sunk his mandibles into it and sucked on the juices.>
