After Zhou Wen had completely digested the Essence Energy, he opened his eyes and realized that Tsukuyomi was still sitting opposite him, looking at him with a smile.
Is the flesh and blood of Calamity creatures so nutritious? Zhou Wen asked in puzzlement.
He had killed Calamity-grade creatures before, but he didnt realize that their flesh was so invigorating.
Thats not always the case. Tsukuyomi put down her sake cup and said, Only a portion of Human Realm creatures can preserve most of their energy in their bodies after death. Its always the case for h.e.l.l level creatures.
This fellow is at the h.e.l.l level? As Zhou Wen spoke, he turned to look at the roasted alien beast, but he realized that there was no sign of the alien beasts corpse. The flames below had vanished, leaving only two bare stone mountains.
Youre done eating? Zhou Wen asked in surprise.
I dont like meat, but the ghosts in my domain like it very much, Tsukuyomi answered.
I never expected a Companion Beast to be edible. Furthermore, its so delicious! The image of the Great Might Vajra Bull surfaced in his mind. He wondered if he could turn it into steak.
As though reading Zhou Wens mind, Tsukuyomi said with a smile, Typical Companion Beasts are pure energy bodies. They can be treated as Essence Energy Crystals, but if you want to eat them, they have to at least reach the Human Realm. They might not be edible even at the Human Realm.
I see! Zhou Wen was somewhat disappointed.
Are you full? Tsukuyomi put down her sake cup and asked.
Im stuffed. Thank you. Zhou Wen thanked Tsukuyomi for treating him to the meat. It was very likely h.e.l.l-level meat. Ordinary people didnt have a chance to eat it.
However, Zhou Wen didnt know that there were differences between h.e.l.l-level meat. The few pieces he ate werent meat from the ordinary parts.
Theres no need to thank me. Follow me if youre done. Tsukuyomi got up and led him to a mountain range.
Where are you going? Zhou Wen asked.
Theres a dimensional zone here that I cant deal with myself. You will help me, right? Tsukuyomi said with a smile.
What kind of dimensional zone is it? Lets study it first. How far have you explored it? Zhou Wen couldnt reject it since he had just eaten the meat.
Ive already explored the situation inside. Its just that its not easy to kill a particular dimensional creature. Your sword should be useful. You just need to help me with the sword, Tsukuyomi said.
Zhou Wen felt relieved when he heard Tsukuyomis words. Since Tsukuyomi was so confident, there shouldnt be any problems.
He followed Tsukuyomi deeper into the mountain range. There were rocks everywhere, and there were no signs of life.
However, on second thought, it made sense. Apart from Earth, Zhou Wen had never heard of any planet having ordinary lifeforms. Even if there were, they were basically dimensional creatures.
Tsukuyomi stopped in front of a cave and pointed inside. This is the entrance to the dimensional zone. The dimensional creatures inside are all stone-elemental. You can deal with the ordinary dimensional creatures, but leave the final Calamity-grade creature to me. After I hold it down, you can kill it with that sword.
Zhou Wen naturally nodded in agreement and followed Tsukuyomi into the cave. He didnt discover any dimensional creatures at first. When the rocks in the cave came to life and transformed into stone beasts, Zhou Wen realized that the dimensional creatures here were purely stone-elemental.
These ordinary stone beasts were at least at the Mythical stage. Occasionally, he would encounter a Terror-grade stone beast.
It gave Zhou Wen the perfect opportunity to test the new Bamboo Blade. He drew his blade and started slas.h.i.+ng. The Mythical stone beasts defense was rather powerful, but Zhou Wen didnt use much strength before the Bamboo Blade sliced through their bodies.
The blade of the Bamboo Blade was very thin, making it non-optimal to use against stone beasts with all sorts of defensive skills. However, the new Bamboo Blades performance left Zhou Wen somewhat surprised.
A jade-like stone beast pounced at him. It was like a Luck Beast. It remained visible after its Terror transformation, but its body was extremely hard. The defensive halos on its body made it obvious that it was a dimensional creature that was very good at defense.
Zhou Wen originally imagined that it would be difficult for the new Bamboo Blade to kill such a creature.
However, Zhou Wen managed to behead the beast by slas.h.i.+ng out the saber with all his might.
What alloy did Ah Sheng add to the Bamboo Blade? The strength of this Bamboo Blade is probably comparable to the Immortal Culling Sword!
Zhou Wen looked at the blade and couldnt help but be surprised that it wasnt damaged at all.
That blade isnt bad, Tsukuyomi said as she glanced at the blade in Zhou Wens hand.
Even an existence like Tsukuyomi acknowledged its quality, exceeding Zhou Wens expectations. He knew that it wouldnt be easy to return the favor.
After slicing open the Terror-grade stone beasts body, he discovered a stone egg.
Zhou Wen took out the stone egg and looked at Tsukuyomi. Tsukuyomi said indifferently, That thing is useless to me. Keep it if you want it.
Zhou Wen didnt stand on ceremony as he put away the Companion Egg and continued following Tsukuyomi deeper into the cave.
Along the way, Zhou Wen picked up quite a number of dimensional crystals and Companion Beasts, but only one Terror-grade Companion Egg dropped.
The stone-type dimensional creatures here had very high Strength and Const.i.tution. There were many defensive and Strength-type skills, but they werent the types Zhou Wen needed.
Boom!
When they arrived at a huge underground s.p.a.ce, the underground rocks trembled as a stone behemoth crawled out of the cracks.
Zhou Wen took a careful look and realized that it was a huge stone turtle. However, it wasnt strictly one. Its head was covered in horns and there was a stone beard under its chin.
Furthermore, there was a huge stone monument on its back.
This appearance made Zhou Wen recall the mythical son of the dragon, Ba Xia. The dragon had given birth to nine sons, and each one was different. Ba Xia had the image of a turtle carrying a stone monumentit looked rather similar to this huge fellow.
The stone monument on the stone beasts back lit up while Zhou Wen was still observing it.
There were many symbols engraved on the stone monument that Zhou Wen couldnt understand. The symbols emitted a strange glow.
Zhou Wen hurriedly used the Minor Heavenly Cycle Killing Formation to block the light, but Tsukuyomi remained motionless.
Zhou Wen soon realized that the light emitted by the stone monument wasnt lethal to them, but the rocks that were illuminated by the light grew strangely.
The originally huge underground s.p.a.ce shrank due to the growth of the rocks. The stone tunnel they had entered was completely blocked by the burgeoning rocks.
This fellows strength is really special
, Zhou Wen thought.
Tsukuyomi had already activated her Hundred Ghost Zone, and her surroundings seemed to turn black. Only Tsukuyomis body emitted a holy light like the bright moon.
Ghouls appeared in the cave and charged at the stone beast.
