As his roar echoed out, the hillbeast exploded with power.
Its unique ability was now on full display. It was able to isolate the sea of will to a large extent. Unfortunately, it was not strong enough, and was only able to isolate the sea of will for a brief moment before its mouthpart collapsed into a mass of blood and gore.
Thankfully, that brief moment was of great significance to Wang Baole. He was able to calm himself down for a moment before bursting out of the ground. After bursting out of the ground, Wang Baole endured the weakness in his body, the pain in his head, and the tearing sensation in his soul. He reached out and grabbed the hillbeast, pulling it out of the ground with a boom.
Although the hillbeast was not sentient, it had been of great help to Wang Baole. Regardless of whether it was for the sake of that, or for the sake of the future, Wang Baole had no choice but to save it.
The hillbeast howled in pain as it was pulled out of the ground by the sea of will. Rumbling sounds could be heard coming from the ground, as if the roar of all living beings had gathered together.
At the same time, the ground bulged up into the shape of an enormous face, which roared ferociously. From a distance, it looked as if the ground had become a giant sealing net, sealing a God-Devil inside.
The God-Devil had awoken, and was pushing its face against the sealing net in an attempt to break free.
However … if one didn't listen to the roars, but instead looked closely at the mouth of the face, they would be horrified to discover that the roars were not the same as the mouths.
From the shape of his mouth, it was clearly two words.
"Save me … save me … save me …."
Up in the air, Wang Baole's face was pale. He looked down at the face on the ground, and a complicated expression appeared in his eyes. Then, his body flickered, and he sped off into the distance.
The enormous face on the ground continued to roar for a long time before gradually calming down. Then, it retracted back into the ground, and everything returned to normal.
After a long time, Wang Baole, who was galloping in the sky, finally released the Hill Beast. However, he left a trace of his mark on it and some food that could heal its wounds in the City of Appetite. After that, he sat cross-legged on the top of a withered tree and quickly recovered.
Two hours later, Wang Baole opened his bloodshot eyes. His body's injuries weren't much, but his soul was damaged, causing him to be mentally exhausted. Most importantly, his Law of Appetite was severely lacking.
Like a candle that was about to go out, the flame dimmed.
After checking his own state, Wang Baole bitterly smiled.
"I don't know if it's a win, a loss, or a tie …" Wang Baole sighed, but soon, a complicated and confused look flashed in his eyes. After forcing his way to a depth of almost six thousand feet, in that indescribably violent Sea of Will, he only managed to maintain a sliver of consciousness and quickly left after a glance.
However … this glance still allowed him to see some strange things.
He saw a cave in the catacombs, and inside this cave, there was a person.
He didn't see the person's face clearly, and he couldn't tell whether the person was a man or a woman. However, he could feel the aura emitted from the other person, and it was … almost the same realm as his own body.
In other words, the person he saw was at least a supreme Almighty of the fifth step.
This person wasn't sitting cross-legged but was floating in the cave. There were hundreds of tentacles on his body, and these tentacles were all black … Apart from the color, they were almost identical to the golden tentacles in the City of Appetite.
These tentacles didn't seem to belong to the floating person, but to an outsider, or perhaps they were forcibly planted by someone. One end was buried in the person's body, while the other end spread into the soil around the cave, and the end was unknown.
They weren't motionless, but slowly wriggling with a frequency, as if they were absorbing something. Looking at the direction of their wriggling, it was obvious that they were constantly extracting something from this Almighty's body and sending it to an unknown place.
As Wang Baole's sliver of consciousness watched the scene unfold before his eyes, he clearly saw … on the blurry face of the mighty figure, a pair of eyes suddenly opened. A mouth opened, and a voice that was indistinguishable between a man's and a woman's voice sounded.
"Save me …" Wang Baole closed his eyes, and the other person's voice still echoed in his mind. It was this voice that hastened the collapse of his divine will.
"It's a pity that my original body isn't here …" After a while, Wang Baole opened his eyes. He had many guesses about what he saw, but he couldn't accurately judge them. If he wanted to know the answer …
"I need to check again!" Wang Baole's eyes flashed. He lowered his head and thought for a while. When he raised his head again, there was a fierce look in his eyes.
"I need to replenish the Law of Appetite as soon as possible. This Law of Appetite has a strange effect on resisting the will underground." Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and thought of the child who liked to play hide-and-seek.
That child was very young and didn't know that before he escaped into the whirlpool, Wang Baole had quietly imprinted a strand of divine will on his body.
Originally, Wang Baole didn't intend to look for him so quickly, but now that he had what he needed, this game of hide-and-seek could be put to an end.
When he thought of this, Wang Baole's body, which was sitting cross-legged on the tree crown, silently turned into dust and dissipated.
At the same time, in the world of the first level, in a murky pool, a small fish was lying motionlessly in the depths of the pool.
There was only one fish in the entire pool, and its life force was hidden very deeply. Coupled with the fact that it didn't move at all, it was enough to fool everyone's probing.
This fish was Cheng Lingzi.
After being severely injured and scared out of his wits by Wang Baole, he didn't dare to run around after coming to the world of the first level. Instead, he found this pool and quickly jumped in. Using the transformation ability of his bloodline, he turned into this small fish and lay in the depths. He was panicking and cursing Wang Baole madly.
"Bastard, just you wait. When this hunt is over, I'll make you suffer a fate worse than death when I return!" Cheng Lingzi's hatred for Wang Baole was monstrous. He believed that it was because of Wang Baole that he had lost the chance to become the Lord of Gluttony and was now facing a life and death crisis.
He knew very well that his current enemy wasn't just Wang Baole. All the other Fleshy Disciples could become his enemies. Even if his father was the Lord of Gluttony, he was still too weak at the moment. Moreover, he had a strong Law of Appetite. He didn't believe that others would be able to hold back after seeing him.
"Bing Lingzi, as long as I survive this crisis, I'll definitely return the harm you did to me a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times!" Cheng Lingzi, who had turned into a small fish, was cursing with all his might. Suddenly … a line appeared in front of him.
The line that had been thrown in from the surface of the water was right next to his mouth.
This scene immediately caused the little fish's body to stiffen.
