Chapter 871 You’ll Get Used to It
The space-devouring beast closed its massive mouth, and the giant python that had been coiled in the sky disappeared.
“Roar……”
After swallowing the giant python, the space-devouring beast raised its head again and let out a soul-shaking roar.
Witnessing this scene, the group of young cultivators who had come seeking inheritance turned pale as paper, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
For them, both the giant python and the space-devouring beast that appeared later were beings beyond their comprehension.
Beings of this level… were truly terrifying.
Whether in size or aura, they inspired utter despair, let alone any thought of confronting them.
Especially this fierce spirit that had swallowed the giant python in one gulp!
The giant python was no smaller in size, yet it had no chance to fight back against the attack and was swallowed whole!
Such a massive creature, devoured in a single bite.
The term “bloody maw” was insufficient to describe this pitch-black beast with glowing blue eyes in the sky.
“Boom……”
After the giant python was swallowed by the space-devouring beast, the entire space began to shake violently.
“Crack……”
The surrounding scenery developed fractures like breaking glass.
The cultivators who were still looking up at the space-devouring beast changed their expressions once more.
This space was about to collapse.
“Whoosh……”
A spiral black hole appeared in the sky above.
The center of the black hole exerted a tremendous pulling force.
Everyone in the space was involuntarily drawn toward the black hole.
Fang Yu turned his head to look to the other side.
Red Lotus hovered in mid-air with her wings gently flapping, a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.
She stared coldly ahead.
At this moment, Long Si was covered in blood, clearly more severely injured than Red Lotus.
Gritting his teeth, he used the gravitational force to desperately fly toward the vortex above, moving extremely fast.
After engaging with Red Lotus, he realized the limitations of his own power!
He was no match for this descendant of the Phoenix Clan!
In their brief dozen exchanges, he couldn’t gain the upper hand in a single round.
If not for the enhancement from the Prison Demon inheritance, he would already be dead!
Now, he had to escape from this place!
Long Si moved extremely fast, being the first to approach the black hole vortex.
Fang Yu looked at Red Lotus, who showed no intention of pursuing.
Long Si was quite an unlikable person.
Fang Yu’s eyes flickered slightly as he turned around and raised his right hand, aiming at Long Si above.
“Boom!”
A burst of golden true energy shot from his palm.
Long Si, who was fleeing with his back turned, had no space to dodge and no time to react.
In the second before entering the vortex, the true energy struck his back!
“Puff!”
Severely hit, Long Si spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, passed out, and lost his balance, practically falling into the black hole.
The other cultivators, unable to resist the pulling force, were also drawn toward the black hole.
Fang Yu turned to Red Lotus and said, “Going out through the black hole, who knows where we’ll be transported to. Let’s leave on our own.”
As he spoke, Fang Yu had already activated the Void Ring, creating a spatial tunnel.
Red Lotus seemed to hesitate about something, but after a moment flew to Fang Yu’s side and reached out her right hand to grab his arm.
The moment they touched, they felt something unusual in their bodies, like an electric current passing through them.
Fang Yu looked at Red Lotus, and Red Lotus looked up at Fang Yu.
Fang Yu frowned, while Red Lotus’s eyes were filled with unusual emotions.
But both quickly averted their gaze.
“Let’s go.”
Fang Yu raised his right hand and activated the teleportation technique in the Void Ring.
“Tap!”
Just as Fang Yu and Red Lotus were about to leave, a small black object fell from above, landing precisely on Fang Yu’s shoulder.
It was the space-devouring beast, now in the form of a small pet dog.
Fang Yu glanced at the space-devouring beast but said nothing.
“Whoosh!”
The next second, the teleportation technique took effect.
Fang Yu, Red Lotus, and the space-devouring beast on his shoulder all disappeared together.
……
The destination of the teleportation was set directly to his home.
Thus, Fang Yu and Red Lotus appeared in front of the bamboo house.
Red Lotus looked around, bewildered.
“This is my home,” Fang Yu said.
“Your home?” Red Lotus turned to look at the bamboo house behind her, finally understanding.
Although the surrounding environment was somewhat primitive, given Fang Yu’s personality, building a house in such a remote area was perfectly normal.
“Which region is this?” Red Lotus asked.
“North Capital,” Fang Yu answered.
“Oh…” Red Lotus slowly walked toward the bamboo house.
Fang Yu remained standing in place, lifting the space-devouring beast from his shoulder.
The space-devouring beast now had its eyes half-closed, appearing drowsy.
Besides Fang Yu, no one would believe that this seemingly innocent and adorable little black dog had just swallowed an ancient giant python!
“Brother Fang Yu, you’re back!”
Zhao Zinan’s voice came from nearby as she ran over.
Seeing the space-devouring beast held in Fang Yu’s hand, she immediately reached out to take it, cradling it in her arms with adoration in her eyes.
Fang Yu wondered what expression Zhao Zinan would have if she knew the true form of this seemingly harmless space-devouring beast.
But in front of Zhao Zinan, the space-devouring beast acted extremely cute, constantly wagging its tail to please her, showing no trace of the ferocity expected of an ancient fierce spirit.
“By the way, just now…”
Red Lotus walked out from the bamboo house and was startled to see Zhao Zinan in front of Fang Yu.
Zhao Zinan heard the voice and looked up to see Red Lotus.
The appearance of a stranger made her timid, and she immediately lowered her head, her face turning red.
“Her name is Red Lotus, she’s not a bad person,” Fang Yu said.
Red Lotus walked forward, curiously looking at Zhao Zinan who was too shy to raise her head.
“Her name is Zhao Zinan, she’s quite shy and afraid of strangers, so don’t keep staring at her,” Fang Yu said.
“…Sorry,” Red Lotus said.
“What were you going to ask just now?” Fang Yu asked.
“…About that huge monster that suddenly appeared in that space earlier…” Red Lotus spoke while looking at the space-devouring beast that had jumped back onto Fang Yu’s shoulder. Her voice grew quieter as her eyes widened.
The blue-glowing eyes.
The black fur, and the four limbs…
If this little black dog’s size were infinitely enlarged… it would look exactly like the fierce beast they had just seen.
“This, this is…”
Realizing this, Red Lotus’s face showed shock as she raised her hand, pointing at the space-devouring beast on Fang Yu’s shoulder.
“Woof!”
The space-devouring beast also looked at Red Lotus, wagged its little tail, and gave a soft bark.
“Yes, it’s exactly what you’re thinking,” Fang Yu said.
“It, it is…”
After getting Fang Yu’s confirmation, Red Lotus looked even more shocked, pointing at the space-devouring beast with disbelief all over her face.
“Yes, it is. However, I’m not sure which form is its original appearance,” Fang Yu said.
Red Lotus breathed heavily, looking at the space-devouring beast on Fang Yu’s shoulder, still unable to believe it.
The pressure that fierce spirit had given her earlier was unprecedented.
She even felt that the fierce spirit might have existed for longer than the Phoenix Clan itself.
But she had thought that fierce spirit was just an illusion in the ruins.
Yet unexpectedly, it was the little black dog on Fang Yu’s shoulder!
Previously, Fang Yu had said this little black dog was a stray he picked up from the street!
She had found it strange then—what stray dog would have blue-glowing eyes?
“Brother Fang Yu… what are you talking about?” Zhao Zinan, still shy, asked softly from behind, completely confused.
“Nothing,” Fang Yu said.
Red Lotus stared at the space-devouring beast for several seconds, then looked at Fang Yu, wanting to ask something but holding back.
Fang Yu’s existence was already extremely mysterious.
Therefore, even if he kept such a fierce spirit as a pet… it didn’t seem particularly surprising.
She would get used to it… eventually.
Red Lotus gradually regained her composure.
……
At this moment, at various locations on the outskirts of North Capital.
One figure after another appeared in the sky, falling to the ground.
These people were the young cultivators from various great families who had entered the ancient ruins.
Although they didn’t know where they were, being able to return to the outside world felt like being reborn.
The time they had just experienced was like a nightmare to them.
A serpent tens of thousands of feet long… and an even more powerful beast that could swallow such a giant python with one bite…
It was too terrifying.
