Chapter 778 - 706: Is This Kui Niu?_1
“I wonder if Lin Banyang and Wang Jiyun, those two old fellows, have arrived…”
This is an area shrouded in thick fog.
Within the endless fog, it seemed a gateway, standing staunch against time and space, was erected.
In front of the gate, at this moment, a middle-aged man with a mustache spoke to himself in a murmur.
He was none other than the God Emperor of the Gold-Devouring Rat Clan, Shule Haorong!
Behind him stood another middle-aged man who was gnawing on Divine Medicine.
It was Ao Wushuang!
“God Emperor, do you think those people can get in?”
“I doubt it…”
Ao Wushuang spoke while he ate, unable to help himself.
In fact, he quite liked places like this…
Divine Medicines lay everywhere for him to take. His cultivation level soared upward, and what’s more, it was safe!
He would never have to worry about encountering that bizarre little mountain village.
Nor would he have to worry about meeting that Big Black Dog!
What a beautiful life, what a perfect utopia!
Thinking that the arrival of the Grey Mist God Emperor could mean fights and killings in this place made him feel… such a bore.
Hearing Ao Wushuang’s words, Shule Haorong merely sneered before replying:
“Rest assured, my brother, Shule Haojue carries treasures with him!”
“Even if they are poisoned, it could save them.”
“They will definitely arrive here safely.”
Upon hearing this, Ao Wushuang secretly hoped in his heart that they would all die from the poison instead… so they wouldn’t come and disturb him!
“According to the timeline, it should be about time…”
Shule Haorong murmured, and then said:
“Follow me and hide!”
As he spoke, both he and Ao Wushuang vanished from their spot in an instant.
…
At this moment.
In the sea of grass.
“Such a treasure indeed!”
Lin Banyang licked his lips, savoring the taste!
The Kui Niu’s ruminations were truly delicious!
“This Kui Niu, it has quite the appetite; it regurgitates so much. All along the way, even I, the God Emperor, have felt somewhat full…”
Wang Jiyun also spoke.
Since they had found a good amount of the Ruminating Divine Objects, they began to share some with the people around them.
Lin Lanfeng, Lin Lantian, Wang Xuantian, Luo Jiangyou, and others received some, treasuring and enjoying it.
Shule Haojue, the Sub-Emperor of the Gold-Devouring Rat Clan, looked at the “Ruminating Divine Object” in his hand, and at this moment, he fell deep into thought.
Kui Niu?
Such a Divine Beast, even in the Sacred Beast Mountain, was something he had only heard of in legends.
How did it appear today…
Previously, their Gold-Devouring Rat Clan had explored this secret realm for so long and had never encountered it…
Could it be a sign of impending change?
He began to worry, but without hesitation, he also consumed the Ruminating Divine Object.
It was indeed a fine thing!
“If there really is a Kui Niu… this time, it must belong to our Gold-Devouring Rat Clan!”
“The heavens decree the prosperity of our clan!”
He resolved in his heart.
The God Emperor must have prepared everything at the end, hadn’t he?
The crowd continued to move forward.
Soon, they saw the edge of the sea of grass.
They were almost through.
“With the Kui Niu’s help, we’ve actually walked through unharmed!”
“The fortunes here are destined for us!”
Everyone was extremely excited at this moment!
Here, they found another batch of Ruminating Divine Objects from the Kui Niu and after sharing them, everyone finally crossed the sea of grass and entered an area filled with dense fog!
“This is the end of this region.”
“The fog is dense, seemingly cutting off all senses…”
“What is hidden here? I feel like I’ve touched the edge of the world!”
Everyone was solemn.
“This place… is strange, my divine sense can’t penetrate this grey fog…”
Lin Banyang’s face was very serious.
“This fog is peculiar, containing a sort of mechanism that even the Grey Mist doesn’t possess!”
Wang Jiyun also spoke solemnly.
“Hmm? Listen carefully, what is that noise?”
Suddenly, a cultivator spoke up and made a gesture for silence.
Everyone held their breath, attentively sensing the sounds within the dense fog.
They then heard, coming from the fog ahead, a succession of sounds rising and falling, like some kind of beast growling, vomiting blood, or moaning in pain!
“Ugh!”
“Roar!”
“Cough…”
These sounds, intermittent and muffled, carried a hint of sorrow and indignation, with an undertone of helplessness!
“I get it… could this, this possibly be the voice of the Kui Niu?!”
Lin Lantian tentatively spoke.
At his words, everyone couldn’t help but shiver and subsequently became excited!
“It must be, along our journey, we’ve only seen the Ruminating Divine Object of the Kui Niu, not the Kui Niu itself… Now, we are about to encounter it!”
Medicine King Luo Changtian clenched his fists, eyes shining with excitement!
“Listening to the Kui Niu’s voice, could it be that the Kui Niu is injured?”
Poison King Du Chenshi guessed.
“The Kui Niu… I must obtain it!”
Lin Banyang was ecstatic as he promptly stepped forward and strode toward the front.
“The Kui Niu belongs to me!”
Wang Jiyun stepped forward as well, his eyes filled with a fierce light. For the sake of the Kui Niu, even if he had to fight Lin Banyang to the death right then, it would be worth it!
Everyone else hurriedly followed, all wanting to see what the legendary Kui Niu was really like.
As they drew closer, the intermittent “cow sounds” became clearer.
“Ugh…”
“Cough cough…”
Listening to these sounds, everyone began to feel puzzled.
“Why do I feel… it sounds like a person?”
“What do you know, the Kui Niu should sound just like that!”
“Exactly, would a person ruminate?”
In the eyes of the crowd, a massive rock appeared in the midst of the fog ahead, and the sound clearly came from behind it.
At this moment, everyone tensed up!
Their anticipation was boundless.
The Kui Niu… must be hiding behind this huge rock!
Lin Banyang and Wang Jiyun approached softly, then… they suddenly flanked the rock from left and right!
Then, they both froze.
The two God Emperors, at this moment, wore expressions as if questioning life itself!
Seeing the hesitation of the two God Emperors, Lin Lantian, Wang Xuantian, Shule Haojue, and others also hurried over, eager to glimpse the true face of the Kui Niu.
The next moment, they too were stunned.
In this moment, God Emperors, Sub-Emperors, Venerables… every single one of them seemed to have turned to stone!
Because… behind the huge rock…
There was no ox at all!
Instead, a Big Black Dog stood upright, patting the back of a fat man.
Then that fat man… was violently vomiting…
The things he vomited out…
And the so-called Divine Ox’s ruminated objects…
It couldn’t be said they were similar; they were… exactly the same!
In this moment, everyone was shocked, completely shocked.
Fear, anxiety, trembling… many powerhouses, upon seeing this scene, found it more terrifying than seeing a ghost.
“This… this… what he’s vomiting is…”
“Is that the ruminated object?”
“Ruminated my hammer, this is bloody vomit, not ruminated matter!”
For a time, every powerhouse’s body shook uncontrollably, their throats itching as if they could no longer suppress it…
At this moment, Wu Dade, with the help of the Big Black Dog, finally finished vomiting.
He said with difficulty:
“Damn it… Dead Dog, you forced your boss to eat grass all along the way, and made me vomit the whole way, completely drained… I really want to cook you!”
His expression was both weak and resentful!
And the people, still in astonishment, upon hearing Wu Dade’s words…
It was as if…
They were struck by a bolt from the blue!
…
Goodnight.
