Chapter 556: Taste It

"This!"

The scene that happened to Jiang Ying was truly surprising to Jiang Yun.

Jiang Ying could become stronger by eating creatures like himself, and he was improving his skills very quickly.

However, Jiang Yun thought this method of training was too cruel.

Seeing Jiang Yun frown and stay silent, Jiang Ying looked scared.

He could tell Jiang Yun’s mood had changed, but he didn’t know what he had done wrong.

Jiang Yun couldn’t bring himself to scold Jiang Ying, as he really didn’t know any better.

After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Yun said seriously, "Although you and your kind are different, they are still living beings. You have no right to turn them into your skills!"

Jiang Ying nodded as if he understood.

Jiang Yun didn’t know if Jiang Ying truly understood or not, and he sighed before asking, "Apart from eating your own kind, do you have any other ways to improve your skills?"

Jiang Ying pondered Jiang Yun’s question seriously and then suddenly brightened up, saying, "Yes!"

After saying that, he directly ran out.

As he left the path, his figure instantly turned into a black shadow and dashed into the darkness with extreme speed.

Just a moment later, he reappeared in front of Jiang Yun, who was once again amazed.

In just a short moment, Jiang Ying’s cultivation had already reached nearly the fifth level of Meridians Unclogged Realm!

"Where did you go?"

Jiang Ying clearly knew Jiang Yun would ask, so he opened his mouth and spat out a walnut-sized gray object, offering it to Jiang Yun eagerly.

Jiang Yun accepted the object without hesitation and examined it carefully.

It looked like some kind of stone, but not black. It was extremely hard, so hard that even Jiang Yun couldn’t crush it with all his strength.

Jiang Yun asked in confusion, "What is this?"

"World, world, adult, try it!"

Jiang Ying’s answer scared Jiang Yun so much that he almost threw the stone in his hand out. This tiny stone turned out to be a world, and it even made him taste it!

"Not complete, just a part!"

Through Jiang Ying’s explanation and gestures, Jiang Yun finally understood.

This stone is not a complete world, but a substance left behind after a world has decayed, like remnants.

Because the Shadow Spirit Realm Beast has consumed many worlds, these worlds, after being digested by it, will gradually erode, just like in Jiang Yun’s dreams, until they completely collapse.

Since Jiang Ying and them are a special kind of creatures born inside the Shadow Spirit Realm Beast, they also like to consume these remnants.

This is why they swallow those black stones!

After listening to Jiang Ying’s explanation, Jiang Yun was greatly shocked. Jiang Ying can actually improve her cultivation by consuming the remnants of collapsed worlds!

But no matter what, this is much better than him devouring his own kind!

Jiang Yun politely refused Jiang Ying’s offer to taste the leftover piece, and returned it to him, saying, "From now on, rely on it for your training. Don’t devour your kind anymore, or those worlds that are still full of life."

Jiang Ying nodded repeatedly, and Jiang Yun stood up and said, "Alright, I’ve spent quite some time here. I have to go now. You stay here and train well!"

Although Jiang Ying didn’t fully understand Jiang Yun’s words, he knew that Jiang Yun was going to leave him. His eyes turned red, showing reluctance on his face that resembled Jiang Yun’s.

Jiang Yun smiled slightly and said, "No need to be sad. We will definitely meet again in the future. And if you become strong enough, perhaps you can leave the Shadow Spirit Realm Beast’s body and find me in the real world!"

Jiang Ying looked at Jiang Yun in a puzzled manner, and Jiang Yun couldn’t explain in detail, so he changed the topic, saying, "I have another companion, did you see him?"

"Guan Yiming?" Jiang Ying knew everything about Jiang Yun, so he naturally knew who Jiang Yun was referring to.

"Yes!"

"He has already left this place, he went along this road!"

"Already left?"

This answer made Jiang Yun’s body tremble heavily as he asked, "How long have I been here?"

This time, Jiang Ying repeatedly shook his head, even though he knew all about Jiang Yun’s experiences, he was really confused about the time.

"Forget it, I’m leaving. Don’t create any more illusions for me this time!"

Jiang Yun really couldn’t delay any longer here.

After all, when Wang Lin told him that the Ten Thousand Demons Cave had broken through the mountain-protecting formation of the Seeking-Tao Sect, it had been two months since he entered the illusion.

Since he didn’t know how long he had been trapped in the illusion by Jiang Ying, he waved goodbye to Jiang Ying, turned around, and continued walking along the path.

However, before leaving, he stopped again, turned to Jiang Ying, and said, "By the way, in my memory there is a world called Qing-zhu Desolate World, which also exists inside the body of the Shadow Spirit Realm Beast. If you can find that world, please protect it as much as possible!"

Jiang Ying nodded vigorously and said, "Master, bon voyage!"

"Practice well!"

After hastily saying these words, Jiang Yun finally turned around and sped along the small road, rushing forward at full speed.

Watching Jiang Yun’s figure disappear into the distance, Jiang Ying still had a reluctant look on her face. She even transformed back into her original form as a shadow, closely following Jiang Yun and charging ahead.

Although Jiang Yun was aware of Jiang Ying following him, he decided to ignore it on purpose.

To his surprise, when Jiang Ying transformed into her real form, she was equally fast. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t shake her off, so he had no choice but to let her follow him.

And so, Jiang Yun continued to rush along this path for nearly ten days, until finally, a pitch-black cave entrance appeared in front of him!

"That should be the entrance to the Mountain-Sea World!"

Jiang Yun didn’t bother thinking about how Qingzhu managed to create an entrance to the Mountain-Sea World inside the Shadow Spirit Realm Beast.

At this moment, his heart was racing as he quickly arrived at the cave entrance. Turning around, he saw Jiang Ying still following him from afar, now standing still and eagerly watching him.

"Go back, if this hole doesn’t disappear after I leave, you can reach my world through it, but you must become stronger than me before you can find me!"

Waving goodbye to Jiang Ying one last time, Jiang Yun didn’t linger and plunged into the hole.

Watching Jiang Yun’s figure completely disappear from her sight, Jiang Ying stood still, silently watching.

After a long time passed, he took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "Elder, I will come find you as soon as possible. Let’s go, find Qing-zhu Desolate World!"

With his command, countless shadows flew out from the darkness surrounding him, followed him, and flew towards the direction they came from. Moments later, they disappeared without a trace.
