Chapter 1777: Delicious
There were about fifty aliens in the group, trying to force their way through the endless earthly sea. They blasted apart countless chunks of celestial bodies and directly erased the occasional spatial currents as though their advance was unstoppable. The Five Revolutions expert ahead of the group even easily stopped the randomly appearing energies.
Xiang Shaoyun and Ming Shi observed them from far away instead of charging in directly because some aliens were left to blockade the edge of the sea. In truth, if it wasn't for Ming Shi, they wouldn't have been able to find this sea so easily.
"Looks like someone else has discovered the natural earthly soul," transmitted Xiang Shaoyun.
"That's impossible. The natural earthly soul is not something just anyone can discover; this includes Nine Revolutions Realm experts. They must be looking for something else," said Ming Shi calmly. "Young master, let's kill our way through. These people won't be able to stop us."
"You said that this endless earthly sea is very dangerous, right?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.
"Yes. The energy field will change every now and then, resulting in the eruption of extremely terrifying powers. Any carelessness will kill them. But after reaching the Nine Revolutions Realm, one will have the strength to deal with any danger this place presents. Thus, to be safe, we should just kill our way through them," said Ming Shi.
"Very well. Let's kill our way through," agreed Xiang Shaoyun with a nod.
Ming Shi was right. Any Nine Revolutions Realm cultivator was a super expert. Very few powers could be a threat to them. And thus, Xiang Shaoyun and Ming Shi strutted into the endless earthly sea.
The few aliens in charge of blockading the sea naturally appeared to stop them. But before the aliens could finish their words, Ming Shi tore them apart. He even devoured their souls.
With blood still dripping from his mouth, Ming Shi laughed wildly and said, "Hahaha, it has been too long since I last tasted something so delicious."
Xiang Shaoyun was disgusted, but he did not stop Ming Shi. Instead, he went right into the endless earthly sea. The endless earthly sea was formed of numerous celestial bodies, looking like a sea of floating stones. The view was rather mystical.
Berserk energy constantly wreaked havoc in the sea, and a Saint would be instantly turned into pulp upon stepping into the sea. Even Gods would have to advance with caution as the collision with the chunks of flying celestial bodies could easily heavily injure them.
If one was particularly unlucky, one would even be attacked by a berserk power such as spatial tornadoes or black holes. These powers appeared randomly and guaranteed death to those caught within them.
Both Xiang Shaoyun and Ming Shi had the combat strength of Nine Revolutions Realm experts. They also possessed incredible eyesight and reaction time. Thus, they were able to move freely in the endless earthly sea.
The aliens deeper in the sea naturally sensed Xiang Shaoyun and Ming Shi. However, the aliens knew that the two newcomers were there for them. Thus, they were in no rush to return. They believed that the two would simply deliver themselves to the group. Sure enough, Xiang Shaoyun and Ming Shi soon arrived behind the group.
"How audacious. You dare kill our companions," roared a golden-winged life form.
But right after he uttered those words, Ming Shi grabbed his head and plucked it from his body with his hand. Ming Shi then tossed the severed head into his mouth.
"Delicious!" said Ming Shi with a wide grin.
The aliens became both fearful and furious.
Just as they were about to attack, their leader said, "Stop. Let me speak to them."
The leader was a life form that had taken the human form. He had a youthful look and a long, horse-like face. Clad in ash-brown armor, he emanated a peculiar aura.
Looking at Ming Shi and Xiang Shaoyun coldly, he said, "I've never seen you around. I don't remember ever offending you before?"
As he spoke, he slowly released his aura of a Five Revolutions expert. He wasn't trying to suppress the two with his aura. He could sense that Ming Shi was much stronger than him. As for Xiang Shaoyun, he was only a soul clone yet also possessed incredible strength. Before finding out who the two were, the alien, He Ma, would not dare to act rashly.
"Piss off, and we'll let you live," said Ming Shi coldly.
"Are you two here for the mother poison source as well?" asked He Ma, who did not appear angered at all.
"Why so many questions? Scram, or I'll eat you immediately!" demanded Ming Shi as he released his Eight Revolutions aura.
That scared He Ma and his companions. They had not imagined that Ming Shi was actually so powerful. Such strength was enough to put him at the top of the Myriad Planet Field. He Ma did not dare to waste any time and hurriedly left with his people.
"You actually spared them?" asked Xiang Shaoyun curiously.
He had thought that Ming Shi would kill them all and devour their souls.
"You might not be aware of this, young master, but they are probably from a powerful alliance. If we kill them, countless troubles will follow. It's better to not fully burn all bridges," said Ming Shi. He had the appearance of a ferocious monster who was all muscles and no brain. Thus, his wise words surprised Xiang Shaoyun.
"But are you not worried that they will return with more help?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.
"Hahaha. Bring it on. The more they bring, the better it is. To catch a bigger fish, a longer fishing line is required. If they return with help, I'll be able to have a good meal and replenish the vitality I had lost over the years," said Ming Shi with a manic look.
Xiang Shaoyun was somewhat speechless. He definitely did not expect Ming Shi to have such a plan. What a crazy monster.
Xiang Shaoyun did not have time to waste, so he had Ming Shi continue to lead the way deeper into the sea.
They moved as fast as they could, getting nearer and nearer to the natural earthly soul. As for He Ma and his people, they would naturally not leave so easily. He Ma had sent a call for help to his best friend. His best friend would definitely arrive promptly. At that time, they would return to the sea.
"That fellow is a nether yin devil. I thought the Imperial Nether Clan had sealed the nether yin devils and turned them into livestock? Did they escape the Imperial Nether Clan's control?" muttered He Ma to himself.
