"Eight hundred thousand … Hmm … That's not right, I think it's only seven hundred thousand something …"
"Darn it all, it was already seven hundred thousand something just now! Do you even know how to count?!"
As the bald crane and the Abyss Dragon roared at each other, an endless sandstorm suddenly rose in the galaxy before them. The sandstorm was formed by a group of meteors charging towards them. At first glance, these meteors might seem like stones, but if anyone took a closer look, they would find that they had faces that looked like humans.
They were clearly people made of stone. Once they huddled together, they turned into meteors. At that moment, they were charging swiftly towards the bald crane and the Abyss Dragon. There was no end to their numbers, and there were more than one hundred thousand of them.
The bald crane widened its eyes. At the same time it let out a shrill cry, it heard the Abyss Dragon's voice behind it.
"Eight hundred thousand something. This time, I'm certain that it's eight hundred thousand something. There's no way I'm wrong."
The bald crane turned around swiftly and looked behind it for the first time, but when it did so, it nearly fainted. There was a dense and endless swarm of beasts behind it. All those with the slightest bit of experience and ability to count would definitely be able to tell … that there were more than one million of them, even if they could not tell the exact number at first glance.
"Darn it all …" The bald crane did not know how to express the feeling of separation and indignation in its heart at that moment. With a loud roar, it charged into the distance. It had already decided that it would no longer lure the ferocious beasts in this place. Since their numbers had already reached one million, then it would leave. It traveled in the direction Su Ming had originally asked it to go, and it was so fast that it looked like a burning shooting star slicing through the galaxy with a loud bang.
"It's only eight hundred thousand something. It's still lacking a little. Bald crane, you can take less crystals, but I don't want a belt!" When the Abyss Dragon saw the bald crane fleeing, it immediately knew what it was planning to do. It became nervous and anxious.
The bald crane was in a fit of anger and ignored the Abyss Dragon's words. It simply did not want to bother with this mutt that did not know how to count and had nearly caused its death.
"Bald crane!" the Abyss Dragon roared.
"You idiot, you mutt! Y-y-you … Go back and count it carefully. I can tell with just one glance that there are at least one million beasts in this swarm, and you're telling me that there are only eight hundred thousand? Are you trying to kill me?!" the bald crane roared, and without even turning its head back, it charged forward once more.
The Abyss Dragon was momentarily stunned, and its heart immediately became anxious. It remembered what Yu Xuan had told it in the past. It seemed that there were some flaws in its calculations …
In its awkwardness, it immediately fell silent. It lowered its head and followed behind the bald crane, gritting its teeth as it charged forward.
If anyone cast their gazes over the galaxy, they would be able to see an incredibly magnificent sight. It was a swarm of beasts that had rarely appeared in Divine Essence Star Ocean over the years. They occupied the endless galaxy, and they were like seawater that roared and tumbled about as they chased after the bald crane and the Abyss Dragon.
There were all sorts of ferocious beasts in the swarm, and even the weakest among them were in Heaven Cultivation Realm. In fact, some of the stronger ones were equivalent to those in Solar Kalpa Realm, but that was not important. Even a normal Master of Fate, Lives, and Death's pupils would shrink when they saw the number of beasts in the swarm.
Even though they could resist it, it would still be quite troublesome.
When their numbers reached a certain level, the cultivation of each individual didn't matter much. Only the aura and impact of the whole could shatter all barriers.
In the midst of this madness, all living beings and races would have to face the danger of their race being wiped out, especially when … there were not exactly one million of them. In truth, there were more than one million and five hundred thousand of them.
Even though there were countless ferocious beasts in Divine Essence Star Ocean and these one million something beasts were just a drop in the bucket, they were just living beings in a small region. However, to Heaven Traversers, who only had one hundred thousand something people, this was a disaster that their tribe had never seen before.
They had lived in this place for countless years, but they had never seen such a swarm of beasts before. In the past, having one hundred thousand something or even several hundred thousand was already their limit, and they were all in one race. Now, there were many races and a large number of ferocious beasts that formed a sea of beasts that could crush all willpower.
The bald crane was determined to obtain the crystals. It did not care about its fatigue and had a will that said it would not turn back until it obtained the crystals. With a fearless expression on its face, it rushed towards Heaven Traversers like a solemn and stirring song.
Only the bald crane itself knew the tragic air contained within it, but when all of this was compared to the crystals, it immediately turned into an impulse in its heart.
'Fifty-million crystals! Fifty-million crystals … They're all mine! Darn it all, isn't it just luring monsters? Isn't it just attracting the attention of those ferocious beasts? I've long since gotten used to it … Huh? Why did I say I'm used to it? ' As the bald crane fled for its life, it let out low growls, but as it did so, for some unknown reason, it found … that it had a feeling!
It was a feeling that it had often led a large swarm of ferocious beasts to charge forward, just like what it was doing now. That feeling seemed to have been buried in the depths of its memories, and it would usually not show up even when it was in life-threatening danger. Only when it was in a unique state of familiarity would it be able to vaguely sense it.
'Could it be that I've always done things that would make anyone's hair stand on end, which is why I've always been chased after?' The bald crane blinked in surprise. Based on its understanding of itself, this … seemed to be a very, very possible possibility.
As the bald crane thought about it, it turned its head around and roared based on its feelings. "Come on, you bunch of cranes! Come and chase after your Grandpa Crane!"
"Do you see that, cranes? Your Grandpa Crane knows how to run!" The bald crane was in the face of the endless sea of beasts as it retreated, and to its shock, it discovered that it was even faster in this state …
'Could it be that I really did this often in the past?' The bald crane was slightly excited. It was no longer just flying, but as it flapped its wings, it would start swaying. It would sway here and there, forming curved lines. Because of that, it discovered that not only was it faster, it had also gradually found a feeling in the depths of its heart.
As it laughed, the bald crane even swayed its body and opened its mouth to spit nonstop at the sea of beasts chasing after it with bloodshot eyes.
"Heh, you bunch of people who are on fire. I just raided your lair and abducted your prettiest girl. Come on, come chase Grandpa Crane! I'll kill all of you!"
"And all of you, you bunch of stone people. What's wrong? Why are you glaring at me? Yo, sooner or later, I'll tear you apart and use you to build a house. Hmm … I seem to have done this before?" The bald crane instinctively said. As it spoke, the familiar feeling became stronger, and it became faster. In fact, its movements became even more practiced. It continued "lowering its head and posing", and a mocking look appeared on its face without it even realizing it.
In fact, it even came to a swift halt. When the swarm of beasts was about to drown it, it immediately let out a strange cry and swayed its butt while cursing. It swayed its body and widened the distance between them again. Occasionally, it would sway to the left and jump to the right. Occasionally, it would even stretch out its claws and use its fingers to provoke them. Its actions, expression, and actions had long since left the Abyss Dragon dumbfounded.
If it wanted to describe the bald crane at that moment, it would have plenty of words, but if it wanted to describe it accurately and directly, then there were only two words …
Coquettish …
Despicable crane …
In response to the bald crane's coquettish actions were roars that were practically connected together. They were the roars of the entire swarm, and their voices were like waves that shook the galaxy.
"Louder!" The bald crane became excited. The familiar feeling became stronger, and at that moment, it had almost forgotten about the crystals. As the swarm of beasts roared behind it, it shouted loudly.
The Abyss Dragon stared at the bald crane, and admiration appeared in its eyes. It had never expected that the filthy bald crane would have such courage to act in such a manner.
The bald crane's coquettish actions had completely ignited the madness in the sea of beasts. They were no longer purely attracted by the God Ascension Nectar. In fact, it could be said that even without the God Ascension Nectar, if the bald crane had done this a long time ago, it would have still been able to complete the task Su Ming had given it. In fact … it might have even attracted more ferocious beasts.
Su Ming opened his eyes in the galaxy. He admired the bald crane's courage. In truth, if he had been in its place, Su Ming did not believe that he would have done better than the bald crane.
'Everyone has their own specialties. This guy is … a weirdo … Could it be that before he lost his memories, he often did this?' Su Ming was deep in thought.
The bald crane flew around in a coquettish manner. Its smug and excited expression made it seem as if it was enjoying luring the sea of beasts. It continued shaking its butt and using its finger to provoke the beasts. It would occasionally berate them loudly, and with its mocking expression, it became the most eye-catching existence in the galaxy. The sea of beasts behind it had already descended into complete madness. They chased after it at an even faster speed, as if they were no longer chasing after the God Ascension Nectar, but wanted to tear that damned bald crane apart.
The Abyss Dragon's admiration for the bald crane grew stronger. Several days later, when the bald crane stepped into Heaven Traversers' territory, it turned around and let out a loud roar, and that admiration immediately rose to a state of fanaticism.
"Kids, we're here. Trample on this place, trample on it! Keep all the pretty girls, no matter what race they are from, and remember to be gentle with all the crystals and treasures. Bring them back to Crying Crane Mountain!
Darn it all, we're occupying this place! " The bald crane turned its head around and roared at the sea of beasts. The excitement on its face had already reached its peak. Once it finished roaring, it was still puzzled. It seemed … that when it spoke like this, the familiar feeling became even stronger.
"ROAR!"
The roars from the one million beasts shook the galaxy and reverberated through the entire Heaven Traversers' territory. Countless Heaven Traversers were shocked awake, and the Abyss Dragon also roared loudly and stared at the bald crane with a zealous gaze.
At that moment, if anyone who did not know the details looked over, they would definitely think that the bald crane was the leader of the sea of beasts … That presence, that coquettish manner, that expression, all of them exuded the presence of a beast.
