Shen Ni Was Truly Enraged: Even the Whale's Hundred-Thousand-Li Body Would Be Wounded!

Rumble!

The presence radiating from Shen Ni continued to rise.

At that moment, the Fierce Sha Qi scattered throughout the Myriad Sha Abyss converged on his location all at once.

Blood-colored beast markings appeared in the void.

The markings intertwined, gradually forming a vast Principle domain that covered several hundred thousand li.

Within it, Lu Yuan immediately felt the world around him grow heavy.

It was as though the power of the entire Myriad Sha Abyss was pressing down on his body.

Even the enormous waves he had just stirred up slowly subsided under that pressure.

Shen Ni raised his head.

The appreciation he had shown while trying to recruit Lu Yuan was gone from his crimson eyes.

"Lu Yuan, this emperor will give you one last chance."

Shen Ni's voice was low, and the void around him trembled gently as he spoke.

"Hand over the rest of the Demon God's flesh, and this emperor will let you leave unharmed."

Lu Yuan did not respond immediately.

He was doing everything he could to digest the piece of Demon God flesh he had just swallowed.

The Chaos Origin was simply too overbearing.

After a brief period of conversion, the energy had begun to merge with his flesh, but the rest was still rampaging inside his belly.

Now that Shen Ni had unleashed his pressure again, the burning pain inside Lu Yuan grew steadily worse.

Two forces pressed in on him at once, from within and without.

Even though the Grand Void Sky Whale's body had completed its first transformation, Lu Yuan still felt a trace of genuine pressure.

He understood perfectly well.

If he continued to devour the remaining Demon God flesh now, it would only put a greater burden on his body.

He had to finish digesting what he had already eaten first.

With that thought, Lu Yuan slowly closed his enormous mouth, holding the remaining pieces of Demon God flesh firmly in its depths.

Then he raised his golden eyes.

"Shen Ni, that piece of flesh had already fallen off the remnant finger. The core is still in your hands. I only want to take this part with me now."

Shen Ni's gaze grew colder when he heard that.

"What belongs to this emperor is not yours to take whenever you please!"

As the words fell,

he abruptly raised his hand.

Boom!

A blood-colored Principle slammed down from high above!

This time, Shen Ni did not use his enormous Dharma Form.

All his power was condensed into a blood-colored palm only a few thousand zhang across.

Compared with Lu Yuan's enormous body, the palm looked minuscule.

Yet the pressure of the Principle contained within it made the scales across Lu Yuan's entire back tremble at once.

Lu Yuan's gaze sharpened.

His enormous fin rose swiftly.

Boom!

The blood-colored palm struck the giant fin squarely!

A muffled boom rang out.

Lu Yuan felt a sudden pain in his left fin.

Dozens of dark-gold scales exploded at once.

An overbearing Principle pierced straight through his outer defenses and slammed deep into his flesh.

Even the Qi and Blood circulating through him came to a brief halt.

Lu Yuan's entire body sank several thousand li involuntarily.

A vast crater was instantly pressed into the Sha Sea below.

Great swathes of black-red seawater surged wildly in every direction.

The fierce beasts watching from afar cried out in alarm once more at the sight.

"His Majesty pushed him down!"

A Golden Immortal fierce beast's eyes flew wide open.

The Taiyi fierce beast king beside it was even more excited.

"That's the Beast Emperor's true power!"

"His Majesty was holding back because of the Demon God's remnant finger before. Now that he's suppressing it with his full strength, that giant beast finally can't hold on!"

The fierce beasts all nodded.

They had long since witnessed Lu Yuan's physical strength, but Shen Ni was, after all, the emperor of the entire fierce beast race.

His cultivation realm and mastery of Principles were far beyond those of an ordinary Great Luo.

Now that he was truly enraged, he had immediately displayed overwhelming might.

Lu Yuan naturally felt the gap between their realms as well.

The power Shen Ni was using now was highly concentrated.

Most of its might came from the Principles of the Great Dao themselves.

There was noticeably less loose energy that he could devour directly.

Even if he could absorb some of the Fierce Sha, the impact of the remaining Principles would still strike his flesh directly.

This kind of attack was indeed difficult to deal with.

But Lu Yuan did not panic.

He quickly adjusted his body, drawing back his injured left fin to keep it from taking another blow like that.

At the same time, his enormous tail fin swept upward!

Rumble!

The black-red Sha Sea surged into towering waves once more.

That dark-gold giant tail, which blotted out the sky and sun, swept toward Shen Ni with incomparably heavy physical force.

Shen Ni was prepared.

He took a step and vanished instantly.

The void collapsed all across the area swept by the giant tail.

But Shen Ni had already appeared in another direction.

"Lu Yuan, your body is indeed powerful, but if this emperor is determined to dodge, you'll find it hard even to touch me!"

Shen Ni's voice rang out.

The next moment,

he struck again.

Boom!

A second blood-colored palm print slammed into the side of Lu Yuan's neck.

A great swath of scales shattered once more.

Lu Yuan's body jolted violently.

A third attack followed close behind.

This one struck directly at the base of his right fin.

A powerful Principle instantly tore open a wound several hundred li long.

Golden-red blood streamed down his scales and fell into the Sha Sea, instantly dyeing great stretches of black-red seawater with streaks of dark-gold light.

The fierce beasts watching from afar felt their hearts pound in fear.

A Golden Immortal fierce beast could not help saying in a trembling voice, "He's really injured now!"

"Lord Qiongqi attacked for so long before, and he couldn't inflict wounds this severe!"

"His Majesty the Beast Emperor's Principles are too powerful!"

The Taiyi fierce beast king was even more awestruck.

It could clearly sense that very little power escaped with each of Shen Ni's attacks.

But precisely because of that, all their might was concentrated on Lu Yuan's body.

That level of control was already far beyond an ordinary Great Luo's.

Yet just as the fierce beasts thought Lu Yuan would be utterly suppressed,

the enormous beast's body suddenly changed again.

Silver-white star patterns slowly lit up across Lu Yuan's scales.

The flow of golden-red blood began to diminish noticeably.

The Chaos Origin that had just entered his body was finally stabilizing as it continued to be converted.

The burning pain was still there.

But the energy that had been rampaging everywhere had begun to merge slowly with his flesh.

This was especially true at the injured spots.

Vast quantities of Chaotic Essence gathered, swiftly nourishing his damaged scales, sinews, and bones.

The wounds Shen Ni had just torn open actually began to heal slowly.

Lu Yuan finally breathed a small sigh of relief.

It seemed his body really could withstand this portion of the Demon God's Origin.

As long as he had enough time,

he could digest it completely.

And the effect after digestion was far stronger than when he had devoured ordinary Sha Qi before.

Feeling his Qi and Blood growing, Lu Yuan's gaze gradually turned serious.

The most important thing now was to leave the Myriad Sha Abyss.

This place was indeed an excellent treasure ground for cultivation.

But Shen Ni was still nearby.

Moreover, the core of the remnant finger was still here.

If he wanted to keep eating it, Shen Ni would certainly not agree.

For now, he would take away the flesh he had already obtained, then slowly search for another source of resources once his body had fully digested it.

That was clearly the better choice.

With that thought, Lu Yuan made his decision.

But to leave before Shen Ni's eyes, he first had to escape his suppression.

He raised his head and looked at Shen Ni, who was condensing Principles high in the sky.

His golden eyes narrowed slightly.

The next moment,

Lu Yuan's enormous body surged forward!

Rumble!

The Grand Void Sky Whale, more than a hundred thousand li long, unleashed all its strength once again.

Its two enormous fins moved at the same time.

Like a moving continent, its entire body charged straight toward the area where Shen Ni stood.

Shen Ni's gaze flickered.

"Trying to ram me again?"

Naturally, he would not stand there and wait for Lu Yuan to approach.

He retreated in an instant.

But at that very moment,

Lu Yuan's enormous body suddenly changed direction.

His head, which had been charging toward Shen Ni, abruptly turned toward the Chaos Demon God Remnant Finger!

Shen Ni's pupils contracted sharply.

"You still want to touch the remnant finger?!"

His expression changed instantly.

Lu Yuan had already torn a large piece of weathered flesh from the remnant finger.

If he now continued to ram the core of the remnant finger, the already fragile seal around it would very likely suffer another devastating blow.

How could Shen Ni allow that to happen?

He did not hesitate.

He swiftly appeared in front of the remnant finger.

Boom!

A vast amount of Beast Emperor Principle poured from his palm, condensing into a blood-colored barrier that firmly protected the entire core of the remnant finger.

At that very moment, Lu Yuan completely changed his movement as well.

His charging body suddenly rose.

His two enormous fins slammed down toward the Sha Sea below.

Rumble!

Terrifying power erupted in an instant!

Using the force of the rebound, Lu Yuan's enormous body rose swiftly into the sky.

Meanwhile.

The enormous tail fin that had been tucked behind him also began to sway.

The Grand Void Sky Whale, more than a hundred thousand li long, seized the moment Shen Ni turned back to defend the remnant finger and swam straight toward the top of the Myriad Sha Abyss!

When Shen Ni saw this, he finally realized what was happening.

"You're trying to leave?!"

His face abruptly darkened.

Lu Yuan's true aim with that last move had been to force him to protect the remnant finger first.

Shen Ni looked up.

A terrifying Principle rapidly shot after Lu Yuan.

But Lu Yuan had now begun to exert his full strength.

His giant fins and tail fin swayed together.

His immense body tore through layer upon layer of black-and-red Sha liquid, steadily moving toward the top of the Myriad Sha Abyss.

Along the way, he naturally drew large amounts of Sha Qi into his body.

Although its effect on his growth could no longer compare to the Chaos Demon God's origin, it was enough to replenish some of what he had expended.

Shen Ni's Principle soon caught up.

Boom!

A streak of bloody claw light struck Lu Yuan's tail with brutal force.

Cracks appeared once more across broad patches of scales.

Lu Yuan let out a muffled grunt of pain.

But he still did not stop.

He continued upward.

A cold light flickered in Shen Ni's eyes.

He was just about to pursue him further.

Suddenly.

A low tremor came once more from the Chaos Demon God Remnant Finger behind him.

The gray-black currents of Chaos Qi that had been temporarily suppressed began to seep slowly outward through the damaged rock once more.

Shen Ni's expression abruptly changed.

"Damn it!"

He immediately turned back.

The remnant finger's core, which he had only just stabilized again, still had numerous cracks that had yet to be repaired.

If he left it altogether now, something could go wrong with the seal again at any moment.

What displeased Shen Ni even more was this.

Above the Myriad Sha Abyss, several extremely familiar fluctuations of Divine Sense had already faintly appeared.

Hongjun.

Luohou.

And several other innate great Divine Ability users.

These fellows had clearly all noticed the presence of the Chaos Demon God's remains.

Although they had not barged straight in for now, Shen Ni knew full well that once the remnant finger's core truly broke free of its confinement, those fellows outside would never simply stand by and watch.

Shen Ni's gaze grew colder and colder.

He looked up at Lu Yuan, who was rapidly ascending.

Then he looked down at the remnant finger, which continued to tremble beneath his feet.

In just a few moments.

He had made his decision.

As hateful as Lu Yuan was.

The truly important thing right now was still the Chaos Demon God Remnant Finger.

Lu Yuan had now bitten off a piece of weathered flesh.

Even if Shen Ni continued the pursuit and managed to severely injure Lu Yuan, it would still be difficult to recover everything immediately.

What was more, the giant beast's ability to recover was simply too astonishing.

Completely suppressing him would probably require a considerable price.

The remnant finger's core would be left unguarded in the meantime.

That might instead give the mighty figures of the Primordial World who were watching in secret an opportunity.

With that thought, Shen Ni stopped his pursuit for the time being.

But the killing intent around him had yet to dissipate.

He raised his head.

He gazed at the immense beast swimming upward.

His deep voice instantly carried throughout the entire Myriad Sha Abyss.

"Lu Yuan!"

Lu Yuan heard it too.

He slowed slightly.

Shen Ni's voice rang out again.

"Today, you snatched the Demon God's flesh from this emperor's hands. This emperor will remember this debt!"

"If you try to lay hands on the Myriad Sha Abyss again, this emperor will show no mercy!"

Lu Yuan slowly turned his head.

His golden eyes looked down.

Shen Ni was still hovering in front of the remnant finger.

Blood-colored Principles surged around him.

He was clearly sealing off the areas that had begun to crack once more.

Lu Yuan understood.

Shen Ni was finally unwilling to continue the pursuit.

But this matter was clearly not going to be put to rest so easily.

He had bitten off a piece of the Chaos Demon God's flesh right under the Beast Emperor's nose.

There was no way the other party could have no grievances.

Lu Yuan did not care about that.

Fighting over resources was simply the norm in the Primordial World.

The piece he had obtained today was enough to keep him digesting for a long time.

Even if he stayed here and fought to the bitter end, he might not gain any more advantages.

With that thought, Lu Yuan slowly replied, "I'll take just this piece for now. You can keep the remnant finger's core for yourself."

When Shen Ni heard this, his face remained dark.

But he did not attack again.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan stayed no longer.

His immense body turned upward again.

His giant fins swayed gently.

He swam straight toward the exit of the Myriad Sha Abyss.

And at this moment.

The vicious beasts on the outskirts of the Myriad Sha Abyss had begun to sense a terrifying presence drawing closer and closer.

The previously tranquil sea of black mist surged violently once more.

A Golden Immortal vicious bird abruptly raised its head.

"There's movement down below!"

The giant ape beside it quickly stood up as well.

They all looked toward the depths of the Myriad Sha Abyss.

Then.

An immense dark-gold shadow began to slowly emerge from amid the roiling clouds of Sha.
