I Might Be A Fake Cultivator - Chapter 566
Chapter 566: Formidable Hindrance
An Lin wandered around the crystalline realm on his black brick, and he tried to search for any remaining Realm Essence Crystals.
Xiao Ze, Tina, and Xue Zhantian once again reverted back into their bludger forms and curled up beside An Lin. Only the three Blood Tribe cultivators continued to slay crystalline mutant beasts in a bid to receive more holy blood. If they were lucky, they would be able to obtain a Realm Essence Crystal.
After hunting for an entire day in this crystalline realm, all they reaped was one golden Realm Essence Crystal, five blue Realm Essence Crystals, and thirteen white Realm Essence Crystals.
An Lin was extremely disappointed, but he knew that this was the normal speed of harvesting Realm Essence Crystals.
If they continued at this rate, he wouldn’t be able to reach his small target in the short amount of time that they had left in this Void Star Section.
“Ah… Sure enough, killing people and snatching their treasures is a much faster way of obtaining Realm Essence Crystals,” he lamented.
“Master, don’t do it! Killing people and snatching their treasures is dangerous!” Xue Zhantian shivered in fright.
“I agree! He that touches pitch shall be defiled.” Xiao Ze also wore an anxious expression.
An Lin massaged his brows. Half of his brigade was useless in this realm… Even the Blood Tribe cultivators were only fighting due to the enticement of his holy blood. With the power of his brigade halved, it was best for them to leave this place as soon as possible.
After a moment’s thought, he decided to give up on their hunt for Realm Essence Crystals. Instead, he sped toward the opposite direction of this Remorseless Realm. He planned on leaving this stretch of land and heading elsewhere to search for Realm Essence Crystals!
Once he decided on leaving this place, their speed increased significantly. This was because they only needed to slay the mutant beasts that they encountered on their path. They didn’t come across any dangers, and they didn’t find any great opportunities either.
Just as they thought that they would be able to reach the other end of this Realm of Boundless Emotions without a hitch, they came across an extremely terrifying being.
This being was colossal, and its body stretched for hundreds of kilometers. It looked like a continent that blotted out heaven and earth, and its titanic body blocked the exit of the Remorseless Realm.
An Lin slowly descended behind a boulder. Then, he raised his head to glance at the mind-blowingly gigantic figure in front of him.
From its external appearance, the creature looked like a colossal whale. Its body was jet-black and sleek, and even the colors of the rainbow were reflected on its shiny body. Its pair of golden eyes looked like two blazing suns, which lit up this dim realm, and it made one feel as if it were daytime.
“Giant An Lin… This… What is this thing? Such colossal creatures actually exist in this world?” Tina was scared sh*tless by the gigantic creature, and even her speech became slow and stuttered.
As she gazed over, all that she could see was the whale’s golden eyes and its jet-black body. Its body was so large that she couldn’t even see the other end of it!
An Lin shook his head solemnly. He didn’t know what the hell this creature was either. However, he could tell from the creature’s aura that it was an extraordinary being.
In this mysterious realm, spatial travel was forbidden due to the natural laws of heaven and earth. Their only way forward was to cross over the black line that lay before them. Now, however, this sole path forward was blocked off by this colossal whale-like creature…
“Do you guys know what this thing is?” An Lin turned around and asked.
The three Blood Tribe cultivators shook their heads in bewilderment. They were also scared sh*tless by that colossal whale-like creature. It was the most gigantic creature that they had seen in their lives.
Xiao Ze wore a grave expression at this moment, and he said softly, “Master, that’s a Heavenly Void Beast!”
Heavenly Void Beast?
An Lin was startled upon hearing this. He had heard this name from Emperor Ziwei before, and legend had it that this was a terrifying tribe that roamed among the stars. It was rumored that members of this tribe possessed the ability to swallow the heaven and engulf the earth.
“Moreover, I’m afraid that this Heavenly Void Beast has already reached the Spatial Nirvana Stage! Not only can it swallow and destroy the void, but it can also create a realm within its body. It’s an extremely terrifying existence, and it’s far from what our abilities can deal with.”
As Xiao Ze spoke, a feeling of extreme fear welled up in his heart. He clutched onto An Lin’s arm and continued uneasily, “It’s especially strange and uncanny for it to appear here. It’s almost as if an earth-shaking scheme is forming as we speak. This scheme is attempting to cut off our exits and then slaughter us from within!”
An Lin: “I’m pretty sure that you’re overthinking things.”
“Master, I feel that Xiao Ze’s speculation is spot on! This is definitely a divine deathtrap!” Xue Zhantian concurred with Xiao Ze’s thoughts as he shivered in An Lin’s arms.
In truth, An Lin didn’t want to provoke this type of being either. He planned to avoid any form of contact with it.
Although it was unlikely that the Heavenly Void Beast was here to target them, there was most definitely some ulterior motive leading it to guard this exit. They certainly couldn’t run over like idiots, as that would be no different from handing their lives over on a silver platter.
Which was more important, his life or his weenie?
Of course his life was more important!
Even though he preferred death over humiliation, there was still a chance for him to accomplish his small target in this Remorseless Realm! After all, this Remorseless Realm was extremely large, and he hadn’t scoured over it carefully yet. He could obtain golden Realm Essence Crystals here all the same!
“Fine, let’s perform a strategic retreat first…” An Lin pondered for a moment before announcing this to his brigade.
However, a deafening rumble traveled over from a distance just as he finished speaking.
An Lin glanced up toward where the Heavenly Void Beast lay, and he saw several powerful figures charging toward it. It was evident that they were looking for a fight.
“M-hm… It’s two monks and… and…”
Boom!
A golden Buddha halo measuring over thirty thousand feet in height materialized in the void, and it pressed its large palm down toward the colossal creature, which was lying on the ground.
An ear-splitting rumble exploded through the skies, and a golden shockwave rippled over the whale-like creature’s jet-black body wildly. A patch of the creature’s body measuring dozens of square kilometers in area caved in as a result of this strike.
The whale-like creature let out a soft cry. Then, the earth was shattered by the devastating sound waves that it released.
Its furious eyes turned toward the golden Buddha halo, and two streaks of flames shot out from them. These flames distorted the air that they passed and landed squarely on the golden Buddha halo.
Boom!
The gigantic golden Buddha halo was shattered by the blazing flames, forcing the monk within it to stumble back in retreat. It appeared as though the monk was covered in indistinguishable flames.
Right as the monk caught on fire, a black-robed figure that was shrouded in black mists released a wisp of black mist which then engulfed the flames that were raging on the monk’s body.
At the same time, the other monk pointed his Buddhist staff toward the eyes of the whale-like creature.
A blinding golden glow tore through the air and struck the whale-like creature’s eye.
This time, the creature let out a heaven-shaking roar which caused the entire space to tremor violently.
The Heavenly Void Beast was finally infuriated. Its body squirmed slightly, and it appeared as if it wanted to shift its body.
A female who was standing on a lotus projection flashed before the three other figures. The lotus in her hands swayed, and a pink water vapor enveloped the Heavenly Void Beast’s head. Then, some sort of illusion ability was activated.
Afterward, she and the remaining three figures started to retreat hastily.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk… It looks like they’re trying to draw the Heavenly Void Beast away. However… they’re severely underestimating the power of a Spatial Nirvana Stage Heavenly Void Beast. Their combined strength is far from sufficient to deal with this creature,” Xiao Ze said with an air of know-how as he shook his head.
An Lin wasn’t in the mood to provide useless commentary.
Those two monks were clearly supreme beings from the Western Paradise. As for the person shrouded in black mist and the celestial maiden who was holding a lotus, it was f*cking clear as day that they were the Heavenly Court’s Night Patrol God and Celestial Maiden He!
Under such circumstances, he clearly couldn’t stand by idly! He had to go and help them!
