"Such strength!"
Ling Jiu's expression changed. He felt an unparalleled power from this tentacle. It was more terrifying than all the Class 8 Direbeasts he had encountered before.
It was even more powerful than them.
"Rise!"
Ling Jiu roared, the veins on his arms bulging. He poured all his strength into his arms and pulled hard.
"Crash —"
A loud splash rang out as a huge octopus-like Direbeast was pulled out of the pool.
This thing did look like an octopus, but each tentacle was more than a hundred meters long and more than a meter thick. Moreover, the surface of its body was covered with tiny black scales, just like snake scales.
"A Class 8 Direbeast, Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus!"
Ling Jiu recognized this octopus at a glance, but he frowned deeply. This Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus was too powerful, far beyond that of an ordinary Class 8 Direbeast.
Moreover, it exuded a terrifying aura that made Ling Jiu feel great pressure.
Obviously, this was not an ordinary Class 8 Direbeast, but far beyond the category of a Class 8 Direbeast.
"Roar!!!"
The Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus let out a strange growl as its thick, python-like tentacles lashed at Ling Jiu. The air seemed to be torn apart as it let out a shrill piercing sound. In an instant, the tentacles reached Ling Jiu's head.
"Good timing!"
Ling Jiu roared as he raised his right fist to meet the tentacles lashing at him from the air. Amid the banging sounds, Ling Jiu was directly smashed into the ground.
But the Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus did not have it easy either. Its tentacles that hit Ling Jiu were smashed with bloody holes. Looking at Ling Jiu, he was not injured except that his body was deep in the ground.
"Such strength!"
Ling Jiu teleported to the side, his eyes burning as he looked at the Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus. "Since you want to play, then I will play with you!"
Swoosh!
Ling Jiu appeared on the head of the Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus, raised his fists, and smashed them down.
Bang, bang, bang!
A terrifying force erupted, and the Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus roared in anger.
Although Ling Jiu's fists could not smash its body, the terrifying force contained in them made its brain dizzy, and it almost had a concussion.
"Roar —"
The Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus roared as its thick tentacles lashed at Ling Jiu. Ling Jiu dodged all the tentacles in a flash and then appeared on the other side, continuing to smash the tentacles.
Bang, bang, bang —
Under the storm-like attack, the Serpentine Tentacle Blackscale Octopus had blood flowing out of its mouth. Apparently, it could not withstand Ling Jiu's heavy punches and suffered internal injuries.
The octopus hissed and swam quickly towards the pool. It was going to escape.
"Trying to escape?"
Ling Jiu snorted, and a war blade suddenly appeared in his hand. "Lengthen!"
The war blade grew to 40 meters in the blink of an eye. Holding the 40-meter war blade, Ling Jiu slashed at the Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus' head.
"Puchi —"
The defense of the Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus' scales was amazing. Ling Jiu had punched it so many times, but he could not break its scales, only injuring it.
However, under the 40-meter-long broadsword, the indestructible scales of the octopus were like tofu. With a puff, its head was split in half.
The 40-meter-long war blade went all the way down, and the body of the Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus was split in half.
"Boom —"
The two halves of the Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus fell to the ground with a muffled thud, and then it lay motionless.
"Done!"
Ling Jiu put away the war blade and walked up to the body of the Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus. He grabbed a tentacle and carefully observed it.
"Its muscle tissue is tougher, more compact, and heavier than that of ordinary Class 8 Direbeasts. Am I really suspecting that this Blackscale Serpentine Tentacle Octopus is a Class 8 Direbeast?"
"Meow!"
Just as Ling Jiu was puzzled, Celeste scuttled to the pool, staring at the bottom of the pool with its round eyes as it meowed.
Seeing this, Ling Jiu dropped the tentacle and came to the pool.
"Do you know what's under the pool, Celeste?"
Ling Jiu asked in confusion. He could see a patch of green under the pool, but he could not see exactly what it was. The pool seemed to be very deep.
"Meow!"
Celeste meowed twice as it stretched out its little paw and pointed at the bottom of the pool. There was a touch of passion in its eyes. There was something it wanted at the bottom of the pool.
"I'll go down and have a look!"
Ling Jiu nodded and jumped into the pool.
According to Ling Jiu's guess, a pool like this deep underground should be very cold. But the moment he entered the pool, Ling Jiu knew that this pool was completely different from what he had imagined.
The pool was not so cold, but quite warm. It was like soaking in a hot spring, with warm currents gushing in, warm and comfortable.
"This pool is a bit magical..."
Ling Jiu muttered to himself as he manipulated the pool water to keep diving. But to his surprise, the green bottom of the pool was clearly in front of him, but he just could not reach the bottom of the pool.
Dive.
Dive.
After diving for thousands of meters, Ling Jiu finally reached the bottom of the pool, and then saw the culprit that caused the green pool: a rock!
Let's call it a rock for now. It was green, about the size of a watermelon, and its surface was composed of flat pieces, like a green crystal.
"What is this?"
Ling Jiu was puzzled. He reached out his hand and touched the crystal carefully. It was warm, and at the same time, there was a mysterious power coming from the crystal.
Ling Jiu felt like his whole arm had been electrocuted, and there was a tingling sensation. It was very comfortable!
"What the hell is this?"
Ling Jiu was puzzled. He tried to grab the green crystal, and it was very easy. Ling Jiu looked around, and after making sure there was nothing else, he left the bottom of the pool.
"Crash —"
When Ling Jiu came out of the pool, Celeste was already impatient. It sniffed the green crystal with an intoxicated look on its face, like a drug addict seeing opium.
"Is it that bad?"
Ling Jiu was puzzled, and then he saw a startling scene.
Celeste suddenly opened its bloody mouth and bit down on the green crystal, creating a hole. Then, it swallowed the crystal into its stomach.
"This thing is so fragile?"
Ling Jiu was stunned. He reached out and grabbed a handful of green crystal. Celeste saw this and ate the crystal in Ling Jiu's hand.
"Celeste, what the hell is this thing? Are you sure nothing will happen to you if you eat it like this?" Ling Jiu asked.
Just as Celeste was about to answer, its body suddenly trembled. Then, its hair suddenly stood up like a hedgehog.
Celeste let out a mournful growl, its eyes bloodshot.
Its body wriggled strangely, as if there were countless ants crawling under its fur, and the bones all over its body made a cracking sound.
The next moment, something horrifying happened to Ling Jiu.
Celeste's body was like an inflated balloon, growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. One meter, two meters, three meters...
In just a few breaths, Celeste, which was only a little more than a meter long, grew to six meters long, and it was still growing.
"What the hell is going on?"
Ling Jiu was stunned.
"Woo woo woo..."
Celeste let out a mournful scream as blood oozed from its body. But its body was still growing, and soon it broke through ten meters.
At this time, Celeste's growth finally slowed down, and its screams gradually stopped. It lay on the ground, panting.
"Celeste, how are you?"
Ling Jiu asked with concern.
"Meow... I... I... am... fine!"
Celeste glanced at Ling Jiu and spoke human language. This sudden scene scared Ling Jiu. "Celeste, you can speak?"
"I... I don't know why, but I can speak all of a sudden."
Celeste's voice was very young and crisp, like an eight or nine-year-old girl. But it stuttered and did not speak fluently.
"You can speak all of a sudden?"
Ling Jiu stared. "It is said that Class 9 Beast Emperors can speak human language. Have you evolved from a Class 8 Direbeast to a Class 9 Beast Emperor?"
"Class... Class 9 Beast Emperor?"
Celeste was puzzled.
"This is the classification of Direbeasts by humans."
Ling Jiu briefly explained, "In our records, a Class 8 Beast Lord has intelligence no less than that of a human, and a Class 9 Beast Emperor can even speak the human language. You can speak all of a sudden. You must have broken through to Class 9 Beast Emperor! "
Speaking of this, Ling Jiu could not help but look at the remaining green crystal. "The reason you suddenly broke through was because you ate this thing?"
"By the way, what is this thing that can make a Class 8 Beast King break through to Class 9 Beast Emperor?"
"I found this by accident."
Celeste spoke a lot more fluently. "I instinctively felt that the thing in this pool was fatally attractive to me, so I was drawn here."
"But the Serpent Tentacle Blackscale Octopus was guarding the pool. I fought it several times, but I was no match for it."
"Instinctive?"
Ling Jiu frowned deeply. "So, you don't know what this thing is?"
"Yeah."
Celeste nodded.
"What the hell is this thing?"
Ling Jiu gently stroked the green crystal, his eyes full of doubt. "Now that things have come to this, I can only look for 9527. It must know this thing."
“9527？”
Celeste looked puzzled.
"You will know in a moment."
Ling Jiu put away the crystal and left the cave with Celeste. Half an hour later, the man and the beast found 9527.
"What is this, 9527?"
Ling Jiu went straight to the point.
"Huh?"
9527 looked at the green crystal, and its eyes narrowed slightly. "Where did you find it, Ling Jiu?"
"In a cave by the sea in the Australian continent," Ling Jiu said.
"The Australian continent?"
9527 frowned deeply. "Is the mothership hidden in Australia? That's impossible. I've scouted Australia and didn't find any traces! But if the mothership is not in Australia, how did this thing appear in Australia? "
"What the hell is this, 9527?"
Ling Jiu felt like a cat was scratching his heart.
"This is beast food to feed the war beasts."
9527 replied.
"Beast food?"
Ling Jiu was stunned.
"The warriors of the Emissian Civilization are generally equipped with six pieces of equipment: a combat suit, a war blade, a gravity bracelet, a dimensional ring, a single-person aircraft, and a war beast chip.
The war beast chip is used to tame war beasts. Once it is installed in the war beast's brain, it can completely control the life and death of the war beast.
"Therefore, a qualified warrior of the Emissian Civilization usually has a powerful warbeast, and the food used to feed the warbeast is beast food!"
