Chapter 2490: The World Eater’s Might
The sight that unfolded before Yun Lintian was one of sheer chaos and primal fury. The Void Creatures, a grotesque horde of twisted monstrosities, swarmed the World Eater like a plague of locusts descending upon a lone giant.
Their numbers were overwhelming, their forms a nightmarish spectacle against the backdrop of the swirling spatial rift. They launched themselves at the colossal creature, their claws tearing, their fangs gnashing, their attacks fueled by a ravenous hunger that knew no bounds.
Roarrrr-
The World Eater, initially passive, seemed almost surprised by this sudden onslaught. It let out a deafening bellow, a sound that reverberated through the rift, shaking the very fabric of space itself.
However, the World Eater was not to be trifled with. It was a creature of immense power, a devourer of worlds, and it would not fall prey to these lesser beings. With a swiftness that belied its colossal size, it opened its maw, a gaping abyss that seemed to stretch into infinity. Wooshhh-
A tremendous suction force erupted from the World Eater’s mouth, pulling the surrounding Void Creatures into its gaping maw. Those in the front ranks were instantly devoured, their forms vanishing into the creature’s endless gullet.
The remaining Void Creatures, panicked by the sudden turn of events, tried to flee, but the suction force was too strong. They were pulled inexorably towards the World Eater’s mouth, their struggles futile against the creature’s overwhelming power.
One by one, they were consumed, their forms disappearing into the darkness, their screams echoing through the rift until they were abruptly cut short.
Within moments, the entire horde of Void Creatures had been devoured, leaving the World Eater floating serenely amidst the swirling chaos. It closed its maw with a satisfied rumble, seemingly pleased with its unexpected feast.
Yun Lintian exchanged glances with Qi Jian and Qi Xun. They were equally shocked by the World Eater’s immense power. They asked themselves whether they could deal with a horde of the Void Creatures like this, they were certain that it was impossible. freёwebnovel.com
Buzz!!
At this moment, something unexpected happened. The spatial rift, which had been relatively stable until now, suddenly became more violent, the chaotic energies swirling with increased intensity. The very fabric of space seemed to twist and contort, the rift expanding and contracting erratically.
Yun Lintian raised his brow slightly. He had been so focused on the spectacle of the World Eater devouring the Void Creatures that he had overlooked a crucial detail. The spatial rift itself was not a naturally occurring phenomenon; it was being generated by the World Eater!
This realization sent a chill down his spine. He had inadvertently stumbled upon a creature of unimaginable power, a being capable of manipulating the space constantly. He knew that he and his companions were in grave danger.
He quickly relayed his observations to Qi Jian and Qi Xun, explaining the dire situation they were in. The two cultivators were visibly shaken by this revelation, their faces pale with fear. “What do we do, Young Master Yun?” Qi Jian asked, his voice trembling slightly.
Yun Lintian took a deep breath, his mind racing. In fact, he should be able to leave this spatial rift with his power, but it would definitely attract the World Eater.
From the earlier display of power, he wasn’t sure whether he could escape from the World Eater’s powerful suction.
Just as he was thinking, something strange happened. The World Eater constantly excreted a bunch of objects from its body. Yun Lintian and his companions paid close attention to it and discovered they were Chaos Crystals.
“This… What’s going on?” Qi Xun was stunned. How did the World Eater produce the Chaos Crystals?
Yun Lintian activated the Eyes of Heaven and stared at the Chaos Crystals. Soon, he discovered that the purity of the energy inside was far beyond anything he had ever seen. Without a doubt, it was the best energy stone out there.
At this moment, Gui Xiao nudged Yun Lintian’s cheek and pointed at the World Eater.
“Friend…” he said slowly.
Yun Lintian was taken aback for a second. However, he didn’t doubt Gui Xiao’s judgment. He had proven himself many times in the past.
He looked at Qi Jian and Qi Xun. “You two stay here.”
“Young Master Yun…” Qi Xun wanted to say something but was interrupted by Yun Lintian.
“Don’t worry. I can escape,” Yun Lintian said. “This pocket world will last for a few days. There shouldn’t be a problem leaving here.”
“Be careful,” Qi Jian said solemnly. His duty was to protect Yun Lintian, but he knew he couldn’t do anything here.
Yun Lintian nodded and left the pocket world, slowly flying toward the World Eater.
As he approached, the World Eater seemed to notice him and stopped moving.
Yun Lintian hesitated briefly and continued to move forward under the nervous gazes of Qi Jian and Qi Xun.
“It’s you,” an ancient male voice resounded within Yun Lintian’s mind as he arrived a few kilometers away from the World Eater.
The World Eater’s big eyes stared at Yun Lintian attentively. Clearly, it remembered Yun
Lintian.
Yun Lintian was startled for a moment. This meant that the World Eater he saw back then was the same as the one in front of him. What a coincidence.
“Greetings, Senior. My name is Yun Lintian,” he cupped his fists and said politely.
“Yun Lintian?… Well, my name… I’ve forgotten it,” the World Eater said with a hint of
confusion.
Yun Lintian was puzzled and asked, “Senior, how did you end up here?”
“What do you mean? I’ve always been here,” the World Eater responded. “Back then, I discovered a spatial node and happened to see you.”
Yun Lintian’s mind spun rapidly, trying to understand the situation. Could it be the spatial rift back to the Azure World wasn’t created by the Devil God from the Abyssal World but a random spatial rift from this place?
The more he thought, the more certain he felt. That spatial rift shouldn’t have had anything related to the Abyssal World, but the circumstances at that time made him believe it was
related.
“Why are you here? This isn’t a place for humans,” the World Eater asked.
“I came here to see the situation. It was my first time here,” Yun Lintian replied.
“To see the situation?” the World Eater spoke gently. “I think you should go back. It’s not
safe here.”
“What happened, Senior?” Yun Lintian quickly asked.
The fact that the Abyssal Convention had been advanced showed the abnormality of this place. The World Eater must know something…
