All Gods: Starting with Two Families

Chapter 3 Dimensional ShopTen breaths!

It struggled for less than ten breaths!

This S-rank Deep-sea Calamity Beast, theoretically capable of tearing apart a minor divine kingdom, was like seafood being roasted over a volcanic crater under the heartless suppression of the extreme environment, its massive and hideous body completely ceasing its tremors.

Its crimson giant eyes lost their last shred of spirit, becoming cloudy and dull.

The massive body crashed heavily onto the still-scalding sand in an extremely aggrieved posture, kicking up a cloud of dry dust.

The panicked hissing in the Oasis came to an abrupt halt.

All the snake-people were stunned, their vertical pupils widening in a daze as they watched the terrifying existence that was a world-destroying demon god just a second ago turn into a giant ”dried squid” the next.

Time seemed to freeze for a moment.

Then, earth-shattering hisses and cheers, filled with endless ecstasy and lingering fear, suddenly erupted!

”Praise My God!” ”Sss! Sss-ha!”

The snake-people were so excited they coiled around and patted each other, expressing the ecstasy of surviving a disaster in their unique way.

They pressed their heads and upper bodies deep into the scalding sand, prostrating themselves in the most devout and fanatical manner!

At this moment, their faith became incredibly pure and dense.

A brilliant pillar of light, containing energy as vast as a tsunami, pierced through the space crack that hadn’t yet fully closed, ignored the distance, and accurately fell into Zhou Zheng’s Divine Thought core!

The pillar of light retracted, transforming into a palm-sized card that shimmered with a deep dark-gold luster and emitted a heart-palpitating aura of majesty.

On the front of the card, a simple yet incredibly profound ”S” rune shone brightly.

s-rank voucher!

This was the proof of overcoming the calamity, which could be used in the [Plane Shop] that connected the heavens to exchange for various precious resources that could cause a qualitative change in the divine domain!

It felt slightly heavy in hand, and the surging energy within made Zhou Zheng’s Divine Thought feel a wave of comfort.

A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, uncontrollable.

”Ten years, I’ve snatched two B-ranks, one A-rank, and this unique S-rank...”

Restricted by the repair speed of their divine domains, gods who could only choose calamities by luck might have more vouchers than Zhou Zheng—perhaps 8 or 9—because those calamities were simple.

But those were all D-rank and C-rank vouchers! The rewards they reaped were far inferior to Zhou Zheng’s!

Yet those newborn gods were still grateful for the simplicity of the calamities—if they had encountered an S-rank calamity so early, their divine domains would likely have suffered heavy casualties!

But for Zhou Zheng, as long as he could find the calamities he could easily overcome, the Calamity Abyss became a massive treasure trove!

Just as he was browsing the store.

”Poof!”

Not far from the massive, shriveled corpse of the Demon Octopus, a sand dune suddenly bulged upward without warning!

Sand grains slid rapidly in all directions like flowing water, forming a fast-expanding pit!

A pitch-black, oily, massive mouth covered in a thick chitinous shell burst out from the sand!

Inside this giant mouth were layers of sharp mouthparts that rotated and squirmed like the Gears of a shredder, glinting with a metallic cold light!

It appeared silently, yet it carried an oppressive pressure that made one’s Soul freeze!

It was exactly the Wonder Zhou Zheng had previously exchanged for with an a-rank voucher—the Sandworm! (Originating from the ”Dune” plane.)

As soon as it appeared, it accurately enveloped the massive corpse of the Demon Octopus! An irresistible and terrifying suction force instantly erupted!

”Wooo—!”

A low, heart-palpitating swallowing sound rang out. The Demon Octopus corpse, as large as a small hill, was sucked dry at a visible rate under the Sandworm’s mouthparts!

Its blood was transformed into the most primitive nutrients under those rotating mouthparts.

In just a few breaths, only a giant ”dried squid” remained in its place, along with a strange golden dust with a faint metallic luster that spread through the air.

This dust contained a strange energy—it was the famous ”Spice.”
