There were a total of twenty or so Fleshers in the City of Appetite, all of whom had entered the first level to participate in the Feast of Slaughter. Half of them had been killed and consumed by the Divine Furnace Dao. Considering the bizarre nature of this place, Cheng Lingzi was able to determine that only six Fleshers remained.
Those six Fleshers weren't the most powerful, but they all possessed special concealment techniques. However, no matter how well they hid, they couldn't escape the detection of Cheng Lingzi's secret magic.
This secret magic had been passed down to him by his father, and was specifically used to search for other Fleshers. It was one of Cheng Lingzi's trump cards. According to his father's plan, he would rely on his own secret magic to devour the other Fleshers. Even if he couldn't become the Lord of Gluttony, he would still benefit greatly.
Of course, there were always unforeseen circumstances. Now, this secret magic had become a weapon he could use to help Wang Baole, and he was doing it willingly. It has to be said that the human heart is very difficult to fathom. Sometimes, when you knead it to a certain degree, you don't even know what you've become.
At the moment, Cheng Lingzi's eyes were bloodshot as he sped through the world of the first level. Soon … he was in an open area. He suddenly stopped, looked down, and said, "I'll give you a chance.
Come with me. Give half of the Law of Appetite to my benefactor, and I'll guarantee your life. "
His words were met with complete silence. After waiting for the space of a few breaths, Cheng Lingzi grew impatient. His body flickered, and he appeared off in the distance. He made a grasping motion with his right hand, causing the area around him to ripple and distort. A blurry figure could be seen fleeing at top speed.
Cheng Lingzi gave a cold snort and gave chase. The entire process only took about ten breaths of time. Rumbling sounds echoed out as Cheng Lingzi flew off into the distance, holding a rope in his hand. Shockingly, the person tied to the rope was a pale-faced Flesher.
The vast difference in power between them made it impossible for him to fight back for very long. He could only be captured alive like a prisoner.
In this way, time passed. Two days went by very quickly. Cheng Lingzi's speed and efficiency were very shocking. In these two days, he had already found five hidden Meat Pulp Disciples and captured all of them alive. However, when it came to finding the last Meat Pulp Disciple, he was having some difficulty.
As he hovered there in midair, he looked down at the land below. There was something special about this area; it was made up of numerous depressions. The water in the depressions was red, and there was a strong will in the area, making it difficult for his secret magic to be fully effective.
He could only sense that there was a Meat Pulp Disciple here, but unless he turned this place upside down, it would be very difficult to find any trace of him. However, with his cultivation base, it would take him a very long time to turn this place upside down in this area filled with fragmented wills.
This was not in line with his plan. Thus, at this moment, Cheng Lingzi narrowed his eyes and suddenly looked behind him at the other five Meatloaf Disciples he had tied up.
"Originally, according to the benefactor's request, if there were six Minced Meat Disciples, your lives would be guaranteed. After all, the Law of Appetite is already sufficient, and you don't need lives to make up for it."
"But … now that there's one missing, I can't guarantee anything."
"So, I'll give you the time it takes an incense stick to burn to find this person. Otherwise … you know the consequences." With that, Cheng Lingzi waved his hand and placed a vicious restrictive spell on each of the five people behind him. Then, he released the rope and said indifferently,
"I, Cheng Lingzi, will not go back on my words. If you don't believe me, not only will the restrictive spell take your lives, even if you escape, unless you don't want to return to Appetite City, the consequences will be the same." With that, Cheng Lingzi closed his eyes and sat cross-legged in midair, beginning to count down.
The five people looked at each other with pale faces and could see the helplessness in each other's eyes. They did not dare to provoke Cheng Lingzi, but it was impossible for them to not return to Appetite City. At this moment, they could only hope that Cheng Lingzi would not go back on his words. Besides, what he said made sense. With six people sharing the burden, the chances of survival would be higher.
Therefore, after fiercely clenching their teeth, the five of them lowered their heads and headed straight for the puddle below. Using their own methods, they began a large-scale search. As for those who were good at hiding, most of them had something in common. Therefore, under the combined efforts of the five of them, after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Cheng Lingzi suddenly opened her eyes as a rumbling sound reverberated in the air.
"Found him!" He disappeared in a flash. Ten breaths later, when Cheng Lingzi flew out again, the five people behind him had become six.
Just like that, as the six of them waited anxiously, Cheng Lingzi brought them along and sped away. They finally arrived at the place where Wang Baole was in seclusion at dusk. From afar, the six of them saw the giant vortex rumbling in all directions. Even though they couldn't see the person inside the vortex, they could sense the overwhelming law of appetite emanating from the vortex. It made their minds buzz, and their faces paled.
"Why aren't you leaving?!" Seeing that the six of them had stopped, Cheng Lingzi's eyes shone with a fierce light. He dragged the six of them toward the vortex. When they got close, he immediately knelt before the vortex. The fierce expression on his face turned into one of obedience and respect as he spoke in a loud voice.
"Benefactor, these are the remaining Meat Disciples. I've brought them all."
"Very good." A thunderous voice came from within the vortex, shaking everything in all directions. At the same time, six huge chains formed from black mist shot out from the vortex and wrapped around the six Meat Disciples. As they sucked, the Law of Appetite inside the six Meat Disciples exploded out and was sucked into the vortex.
As for Cheng Lingzi, he didn't need any instructions from Wang Baole. He automatically sent the Law of Appetite out of his body into the vortex, causing Wang Baole to be very pleased with him.
Cheng Lingzi's breakthrough had reached a critical juncture. His aura had long since surpassed that of the ordinary Lord of Gluttony, but his cultivation base was still a bit short. Now that the Law of Appetite was pouring into him, he was finally close to filling that gap.
After the time it takes an incense stick to burn, the six Meat Pulp Apprentices had drained about seventy percent of their magical laws of appetite. Suddenly, a roar echoed out from within the vortex. Then, the vortex shrank down and began to take the shape of a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering figure.
At first, the body was … 300 meters tall. As the vortex shrank down and absorbed the Law of Appetite, the body grew larger and larger. It was now 900 meters tall, then 900 meters tall, then 210 meters tall, until ….
When it was 900 meters tall, the vortex vanished, and the pressure of the Lord of Gluttony descended. The mist in the sky churned, and the ground quaked. It was as if the only thing that existed between Heaven and Earth was the 900 meter tall figure, whose face was blurry, and whose shocking appearance could shake Heaven and Earth.
Cheng Lingzi was the first to cry out, "Greetings, Lord of Gluttony!!"
The other six Meat Disciples hurried to drop to their knees and offer formal greetings.
As they greeted him, the three-thousand-foot-tall figure slowly lowered its head. Its face was blurry, but it gradually became clear, revealing Wang Baole's features.
He smiled.
Ninth, the Lord of Gluttony!
