Since there was no reaction from the Thousand Mammoth Imprint after entering the unknown progenitor's skeleton, it was most likely not the Thousand Mammoth Progenitor. However, Lin Xiao still decided to go in and take a look. He wanted to see if there were any changes to this unknown progenitor after its death. He wanted to see what was in the core of the progenitor's skeleton and if there was any essence left behind after its death.
There was only an endless stream of death aura and progenitor's power that were denser than the outside. As he walked, he felt a numbing itch on his skin as if there were ants crawling on it. This feeling became more obvious the deeper he went.
The progenitor's skeleton was as big as a planet. There were connected holes everywhere. These were not holes that were created after its death but the structure of the progenitor's skeleton.
The progenitor was so powerful that its skeleton was unimaginably strong. Anyway, he did not see any signs of corrosion along the way. The material was also extremely tough. His full-force attack did not even leave a mark.
After an unknown period of time, Lin Xiao could not remember how many passages he had passed through. Once again, he passed through a bone hole and entered a huge space. At first glance, he was attracted by a huge ball that was floating slowly in the middle of the hole.
When he saw the sphere, the sphere also noticed him. An extremely cold will filled with hatred and greed attacked him. The sphere quickly stretched out thick tentacles, and the sphere at the top opened up to reveal eyeballs of different sizes. Hundreds of colorful beams of light shot out from the eyeballs towards Ji Hao's head.
Its appearance and attack style were very similar to the famous Evil Eye. However, its strength was not in the same world. When the light beams hit his body, it was like being pricked by needles. It was extremely painful. A small piece of his golden skin that was hit turned completely black and corroded into ash, leaving behind a large pit.
Lin Xiao did not dodge. He gritted his teeth and charged forward.
In a short time, the second wave of light rain hit him. However, it passed through him and hit the void behind him. He used the same trick again to cut off the time.
A few waves of light rain were ineffective. The Evil Eye-like monster's hundreds of tentacles changed. They quickly turned into various weapons and stabbed at him. It was so fast that Lin Xiao only had time to gather his strength to block it.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
Dozens of explosions rang out, and he was sent flying by fifty to sixty tentacles at the same time.
The Time Severance was still in effect, but these attacks were not just simple physical attacks. They also contained an indescribable power that could pass through the time fault and send him flying.
Before he could even land on the ground, all of the monster's tentacles turned into Evil Eyes and shot out light arrows that struck him.
The strange power contained within it could only penetrate the time gap in a limited manner, forcing him to continuously retreat.
The energy of this thing seemed to be endless, and the impact was very strong. It was fired once every second, and it blasted him back constantly. Soon, he retreated to the edge of the stone wall, and was pressed against the wall and whipped. Soon, there was almost no trace of gold on his chest, and the thick layer of Golden True Body flesh on his chest was corroded and peeled off.
"That's ridiculous!"
Fortunately, the power of time was able to isolate a portion of the damage. Otherwise, the countless direct bombardments would have corroded half of his body. This thing's strength was probably even stronger than the giant withered tree he had seen before.
Furthermore, this was not even the core of the progenitor's corpse, and it had already given birth to such a terrifying thing. Who knew what kind of monster would be inside?
Lin Xiao was already prepared to retreat, but he had to get rid of this thing before he could leave. Otherwise, he would not be able to leave.
Lin Xiao did not dare to hide any more tricks. Once again, he activated his Jack of All Trades ultimate move — Black Hole.
A terrifying suction force came from his body, and the surrounding space collapsed into a black hole again. The light beams shot into the black hole like clay oxen entering the sea, and disappeared without a trace.
There was no helping it. This thing was too terrifying. Among all the methods he had, only the power of time and the black hole could do anything to it. The other methods were useful against those weaker than him, but they were useless against this monster that was born from the progenitor's corpse.
In fact, even if he transformed into a black hole, he could not do anything to this thing. It directly extended its tentacles into the void and firmly fixed itself in place. This was the interior of a progenitor's body, and the space was extremely stable. The space around his black hole seemed to have collapsed, but it was actually an illusion caused by gravity. The space was still fine.
Moreover, as he activated the black hole, the death aura and progenitor's power in this huge space surged toward him like a tidal wave and was sucked into the black hole.
Lin Xiao had to concentrate to cleanse the death aura, trying his best not to let the death aura enter his body and convert it into his own power.
The black hole could not suck in the monster, and the situation became tense.
Lin Xiao had been devouring for almost a day. Suddenly, the black hole retracted, and he had the urge to run to the nearest hole.
However, the monster's reaction was extremely fast. Hundreds of tentacles retracted and straightened, and hundreds of straight light beams shot out. Lin Xiao, who had run less than ten meters away, was accurately smashed into the wall. Then, it was a series of continuous attacks.
"F * ck!"
He had no choice but to activate the black hole again to block the bombardment. The situation became tense again.
Almost a week later, Lin Xiao tried to escape again. However, the monster's reaction was extremely fast. It intercepted him immediately, and he could not escape at all.
Moreover, he secretly observed and found that this thing had probably stayed here for tens of thousands of years. It was derived from the essence of the progenitor's death. Moreover, its range seemed to be limited to this huge hole, and it could not leave. It had an abnormal hatred for life. If it saw a living person like him, it would probably stay here until the end of time.
Lin Xiao knew that he could not escape at this stage. There was only one way to escape, and that was to increase his power.
Next, he did not want to escape. He turned into the black hole and began to endlessly devour the death aura and progenitor's power that were everywhere in the progenitor's bones. He then converted them into his own power.
At the same time, he communicated with Tishar through his soul. He asked her to expand the Dream Realm Progenitor's Mark's authority. More power than before flowed into his body from the Dream Realm Progenitor's Mark, continuously increasing his power.
Half a month … There was no reaction.
Three months … There was no movement.
One year … It was quiet.
Five years … Lin Xiao suddenly woke up. He turned his head with a surprised expression. He looked at the straight bone wall behind him with a shocked expression. He did not know when a semicircular dent appeared on it.
In his eyes, under the terrifying suction force of the black hole, the Progenitor's skeleton, which had never been damaged since he entered, was devoured a tiny bit. The tiny bones were pulled out of the bone wall and into his body by the terrifying suction force.
"This …"
Lin Xiao was so shocked that he could not speak.
It seemed that he had only absorbed a little bit of the bones, and it took him six or seven years to absorb this little bit. However, this meant that the progenitor's bones were not unshakable.
Almost instantly, a crazy idea appeared in Lin Xiao's mind. Should he do something big and devour the progenitor's bones that were as big as a planet?
Although there were only bones left, he could feel that the bones contained the progenitor's essence. Not only could it increase his power, but it could also strengthen his life essence.
This was not just the bones. After devouring them into the black hole, the essence of the bones was revealed. They were runes that contained the progenitor's essence.
To put it bluntly, the progenitor's bones were not just bones. They were made up of countless progenitor's runes. This was why they were so sturdy and could withstand the progenitor's immense power. It was almost impossible for anyone below the peak of rank 8 to damage them.
Lin Xiao did not have such thoughts before because no matter how hard he tried, he could not leave a mark on the bones. However, now that he suddenly discovered that he could devour the progenitor's bones, he could not hold back anymore.
Once the thought came out, it could not be stopped. However, in the midst of this thought that he could not and did not want to suppress, his remaining rationality had a trace of hesitation.
If he did that, when it reached a certain point, it would definitely trigger a reaction from the terrifying existence in the progenitor's bones. He was not sure if he could withstand it in his black hole form.
If the terrifying existence in the core of the progenitor's bones could forcefully break through his black hole form and pull him out, then it would be over.
However, this rationality was too weak. It was quickly drowned in the delusion of the benefits if he succeeded.
"Let's do it!"
With a thought, the devouring power that had been controlling its destructive power suddenly changed. It devoured everything around it indiscriminately.
An even more turbulent energy gathered towards him and was crushed into pure energy. The bone particles that were several times more than before were forcefully pulled into the black hole. Under the terrifying tearing power of the black hole, they returned to their origin and turned into progenitor's runes. They merged into his body and strengthened his body.
This progenitor was completely dead and did not have a trace of consciousness left. If it was not completely dead, there would only be one result if he continued to absorb it. The progenitor's consciousness would forcefully seize his body and use it to be reborn.
The tentacle monster that was entrenched in the void could not do anything to Lin Xiao who had turned into a black hole. It could only stabilize itself in the void and resist the terrifying suction force.
However, this kind of resistance gradually slid into the black hole as Lin Xiao grew stronger. It slowly slid into the black hole until one of the tentacles that was fixed in the void broke. Like a domino effect, the tentacles broke one by one, and the huge spherical monster lost control and slid into the black hole.
Before it entered, it emitted a powerful death energy and struggled at the edge of the black hole for a few days. In the end, it could not hold on and was swallowed into the black hole.
The black hole's suction force paused for a moment before returning to normal. This terrifying monster that was stronger than an ordinary late-stage Eighth Order disappeared just like that.
Without this monster, the black hole continued to devour the vast death energy and progenitor's power from the progenitor's bones. As time passed, the aura of Lin Xiao's true body inside the black hole became stronger and stronger. Gradually, it emitted an aura that was exactly the same as the progenitor's bones.
After an unknown amount of time, a long snake-like monster with a pair of bone wings on its back and countless tentacles flew over from afar. It plunged into the black hole and blasted a huge hole in the accretion disk formed by the huge amount of energy.
