Myriad Paths of the Dragon Emperor

Chapter 4553: The void behemoth

The entire world seemed to have been blocked. A large shadow was cast from the void above, and an extremely terrifying aura filled the world.

Lu Ming and yechu gongcang couldnʼt help but shiver under the pressure of this aura, and a chill spread from their hearts to their heads.

Terrifying, extremely terrifying.

It was not just Lu Ming and yechu gongcang. The black bugʼs body had completely stiffened. It no longer chased after Lu Ming. Instead, it was trembling non-stop, as if it was terrified.

Lu Ming and the yechu gongcang could not help but look up. Their pupils contracted sharply, and disbelief appeared on their faces.

A giant beast was floating in the air.

At this moment, a strange giant beast appeared. It had the head of a Tiger and the body of a Lion. However, it also had a pair of wings. When the wings were spread, they could cover the sky and the sun.

He also had a pair of sharp talons, like an eagleʼs.

This beast was extremely huge, like a small meteorite.

”This is ... A void beast!”

A thought emerged in Lu Mingʼs mind and he felt bitter.

Unlucky, he was really too unlucky.

Fei Yao gave him a Jade slip that recorded some things about the universe junkyard in detail.

Among them, there was a record of a type of void beast.

Logically speaking, the laws and laws of the universe ruins were a mess. Other than bugs, it shouldnʼt be able to give birth to other living beings.

It wasnʼt until the last few dozen star years that the laws of the universe ruins became much more orderly, giving birth to some races.

However, void behemoths did not only appear in the last few dozen stellar years, but had existed since ancient times.

No one knew how the void beasts appeared. They only knew that since the universe junkyard came into existence, there were void beasts.

The void beasts were extremely huge. The big ones were even bigger than planets, while the small ones were the size of mountains.

They wandered around the universe junkyard and fed on all sorts of minerals and bugs.

Some of the terrifying void beasts could even swallow a large continent.

The one that had appeared was definitely a void beast. Although its size was not as exaggerated as a planet, Lu Ming speculated that it was very likely that it was just a young void beast that had not grown up.

However, according to the flying chariotʼs records, void beasts were extremely rare. They were rarely encountered in the vast universe ruins.

Most people would spend their entire lives adventuring in the universe junkyard and still wouldnʼt encounter a void beast.

The flying chariot had adventured through the junkyard for dozens of star years, but it had only come across two of them.

Therefore, when the flying Dagger was talking about the crisis in the universe junkyard, it did not specifically mention it. It only let Lu Ming take a look at the information.

Clearly, the flying Dagger did not think that Lu Ming would be so lucky to encounter a void beast the moment he entered the universe junkyard.

The facts had proven that Lu Mingʼs luck was that good.

Whoosh!

In the sky, the void beast swooped down, bringing with it a violent force as it pounced at the black worm.

The black bug was unwilling to give up and wanted to resist. It opened its mouth, and the Scarlet strip of meat flew out like a long spear, piercing toward the void beastʼs eye.

The void behemoth did not Dodge, allowing the Scarlet strip of meat to Pierce its eye membrane. With a bang, the Scarlet strip of meat bounced back, but the void behemothʼs eye membrane was completely fine.

”Nest ...”

Lu Ming gasped.

The eye membrane was definitely the softest and weakest part of any living being.

However, the black bug could not even break through the weakest part of the void beastʼs defense. This was terrifying.

Run!

Lu Ming did not hesitate. He increased his speed to the maximum and dashed forward.

The yechu gongcang did the same, charging in another direction.

They could not even deal with a single black worm, let alone a void beast.

If they didnʼt seize the opportunity to escape, they would only die.

At this moment, the void beast continued to dive down. It opened its mouth and its tongue rolled out, wrapping around the black worm that was more than a hundred meters long and swallowing it.

The black bug had devoured many heavenly human tribe cultivators in the same way, but in the end, it still became food for the void beast.

Smacking!

After the void beast swallowed the black worm, it began to chew on it, showing an expression of enjoyment.

The void beast did not pursue Lu Ming and the yechu gongcang. Instead, it swept its gaze across the continent.

Suddenly, the void beast flapped its wings and soared into the sky. A violent force swept out in all directions, sweeping up the shattered stones and ancient trees on the continent and turning them into ashes.

Then, the void beast swooped down and charged at a part of the continent, its sharp claws directly clawing at the ground.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground rumbled and cracked. The void beastʼs sharp claw dug deep into the earth. When it emerged, it was holding a black worm. This black worm was several times longer and thicker than the previous one.

However, this black worm did not have the slightest ability to resist in the hands of the void beast. It was thrown into its mouth and eaten in a few moments.

After eating the black worm, the void beast continued to search. After a while, it found another black worm that was a few hundred meters long and ate it.

After that, the void beast never found the black bug again.

Roar!

Not finding the black bug, the void beast seemed to be very irritable. It roared continuously, shaking the entire continent.

Then, it looked in the direction where Lu Ming and yechu gongcang had fled.

With a long cry, he flapped his wings and shot into the sky in pursuit of the yechu gongcang.

When the void beast was capturing the black worms, Lu Ming and yechu gongcang had fled with all their might. They had long escaped from the continent and entered the void.

Moreover, they had already escaped far away in such a short time.

The yechu gongcang had let out a sigh of relief, finally believing that he was safe, but suddenly, a long howl came from behind him, almost scaring him to death.

”Not good, theyʼre here!”

Yechu gongcang roared in terror as his Supreme heavenly energy burned with all his might, bringing his speed to its highest.

However, the void beast was simply too fast, and it quickly closed the distance between it and yechu gongcang.

”No, no, no...”

Yechu gongcang roared as he ran for his life.

He had wanted to rush toward Lu Ming and follow in Lu Mingʼs footsteps by leading the void beast to Lu Ming. However, he realized to his dismay that he had fled in a completely different direction from Lu Ming. After flying for such a long time, he had no idea how far the distance between them had become.

He couldnʼt even lure them over.

Roar!

The beast of space howled and flapped its wings, its massive body shooting through the air with incredible speed. The distance between it and yechu gongcang was rapidly closing.

Not long after, the distance between the two sides was only a few thousand miles.

This distance could be covered in the blink of an eye for the void beast.

”No, no, no, Iʼm not willing to accept this ...”

The yechu gongcang let out a despairing roar, and then was swallowed by the void beast.

After the void beast devoured the yechu gongcang, it looked in the direction that Lu Ming had escaped.
