Vol. 1 - Chapter 25 - No More
The bugs swarmed like a flood toward Chaos Demonic Bull and the other two, who were kneeling and shuddering at the side.
They hugged each other and shouted in fear, “S-Sir, your bugs are coming over!”
They were not sure if they could resist these bugs by themselves.
Ning Yechen waved his hand. The bugs that were about to touch Chaos Demonic Bull and the other two turned around in unison, returned to his feet, and went into his shadow again.
They were spiritual energy-eating bugs from the Demon Realm. They could eat anything, but their favorite were things containing spiritual energy.
They would wipe out anything containing spiritual energy!
These spiritual energy-eating bugs were at the Spirit Detection realm when they were first born, but they could increase their cultivation through consumption!
Ning Yechen’s spiritual energy-eating bug had even eaten many Heavenly Emperors. Now, their cultivation was higher than that of Chaos Demonic Bull and the other two.
If he had not summoned them back, the bugs would have only needed a little time to eat up the three Monster Kings.
Seeing Ning Yechen summon the bugs back, they finally felt relieved.
They had almost thought that they would be the next to die.
Ning Yechen had deliberately gotten the spiritual energy-eating bugs to get close to Chaos Demonic Bull and the others. He simply wanted to make them more obedient.
Ning Yechen walked over to the three Monster Kings and said calmly, “I have something for you.”
“Sir, please speak. We are at your service!” Sky-Swallowing Python replied first.
Chaos Demonic Bull and Titan Giant Ape bowed and chimed in.
Ning Yechen liked their obedient reaction. He raised his hand at them. Dark spiritual energy covered their bodies and lifted them into the air.
“S-Sir?” Sky-Swallowing Python asked quizzically.
The next second, a vast amount of spiritual energy suddenly poured into them, catching them completely unprepared.
This terrifying amount of spiritual energy kept entering their meridians and filling their spiritual seas. They could sense that the realm bottlenecks they had been stuck at for more than a century were currently being impacted.
“Ah! Ah! S-Sir, Sir! Sir, I’m full! No more! Argh! I-I can’t take it anymore!”
As the spiritual energy surged into their bodies, their meridians bulged and expanded, and they felt as though they might explode at any moment.
Sky-Swallowing Python and the others felt a rush of pain and pleasure as the spiritual energy filled their bodies. It was both agonizing and joyful.
“If you want to break through, suck it up and bear with it.”
Listening to Sky-Swallowing Python’s shouts, Ning Yechen frowned. Why does it sound strange?
Hearing this, Sky-Swallowing Python and the others could only grit their teeth and go on.
This was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity for them!
The man was forcibly using his spiritual energy to aid them in breaking through from the Divine Being realm to the Heavenly Immortal realm!
“AHHH!”
Following three resounding shouts, the spiritual energy of Sky-Swallowing Python and the other two soared into the sky. Powerful auras radiated from them as their bodies glowed!
This meant they had broken through to the Heavenly Immortal realm!
If Ning Yechen had not used a formation to conceal the cave and block the laws of the world, their breakthrough to the immortal level would have aroused a heavenly lightning tribulation.
He did not think much of the heavenly lightning tribulation. But the commotion would have drawn the attention of Luo Ruying and others.
Most importantly, his wife and daughter were sleeping!
What if the thunder woke them up?!
After advancing to the Heavenly Immortal realm, the three Monster Kings accepted the baptism of spiritual energy and let it do its work. Their expressions were relaxed and comfortable.
After landing on the ground, Chaos Demonic Bull opened his eyes. His eyes glinted as he detected the majestic power in his body!
At this moment, he felt unstoppable!
Ning Yechen’s voice sounded. “Do you think you're unstoppable now?"
“Absolutely!” Chaos Demonic Bull replied subconsciously. When he snapped out of his excitement, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly shook his head like a rattle. “No way. How can I compare to you?”
Even after breaking through to the Heavenly Immortal realm, he felt that Ning Yechen could finish him off in a split second.
“We were able to achieve this out of your generosity!”
Sky-Swallowing Python and Titan Giant Ape chimed in.
They were thrilled.
Unexpectedly, they received a precious opportunity from Ning Yechen!
Had they broken through on their own, they did not know how long it would have taken them!
However, the man had used his spiritual energy and forcefully helped them break through in a matter of minutes.
His true abilities were far beyond anything they could imagine.
Everyone looked at Ning Yechen with respect and fear.
Ning Yechen waved his hand, and three heavenly weapons appeared in front of Chaos Demonic Bull and the other two.
They were a red battle ax, a pair of boxing gloves that glistened like jewels, and a sword curved like a snake.
“Sir, what is this?”
The three Monster Kings looked at the heavenly weapons with ‘MINE’ stamped on their faces.
They were rare heavenly weapons!
The heavenly weapons gave off a radiant luster, so they must be high-level items.
They had lived in the Monster Domain Forest for hundreds of years, but they had never laid eyes on a heavenly weapon before.
Ning Yechen looked at them indifferently. “I want you to do something. While I am away, I want you to protect my wife and daughter. Your cultivation was terrible, so I helped you break through. Now, take these heavenly weapons as well.”
Ning Yechen had helped them break through and gifted them heavenly weapons. This was no different from taking them in as his subordinates.
They could help when necessary.
But if they were too weak, there was no point.
Despite aiding their breakthrough to the Heavenly Immortal realm, they were far weaker than his past subordinates.
The three Monster Kings could not believe their ears! Is he really giving us heavenly weapons just like that?
After the initial shock, they were thrilled. They hurriedly kneeled and swore fealty to him. “Thank you for this gift! We swear to do our utmost to protect your wife and daughter!”
Chaos Demonic Bull even straightened his back, hit his chest, and said solemnly, “From now on, your wife and daughter are as good as mine!”
“Huh?” Ning Yechen felt that this sentence sounded off, so he narrowed his eyes at Chaos Demonic Bull.
Chaos Demonic Bull detected something amiss, so he explained sheepishly, “No, no, I mean that I’ll treat your wife and daughter like my own! Erm… That doesn’t sound right either…”
Ning Yechen quietly walked over to Chaos Demonic Bull and smiled.
With a thud, a punch hit him on the head, driving half of his body into the ground.
Even though the stupid cow did not mean any harm, Ning Yechen could not resist hitting him.
Sky-Swallowing Python and Titan Giant Ape glanced at Chaos Demonic Bull, who was stuck in the ground upside down and unconscious.
Sure enough, even though they were at the Heavenly Immortal realm now, they still could not even take a single blow from the man.
