The Slap

"What happened to the God King and the others?"

"Did they eat something bad? Food poisoning?"

"Outrageous! Absolutely outrageous! That's a god-king, a bodhisattva! How could he be so disrespectful!"

The group of deities all wore complex expressions, completely unaware of what had happened.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly Pole Divine King and the others were in an even more miserable state.

Because of that feeling...

It's been going on!

The Heavenly Dao Worm seems to never stop eating; it's just constantly eating and eating!

"Help! I can't vomit anymore... Ugh... Ugh!"

The Heavenly Pole Divine King was almost crying; he lay sprawled in the void, nearly vomiting bile.

"Damn it... what did your master eat? It tastes like shit... I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore... Ugh!"

Liaochen's face was pale, and his snow-white cassock was covered in vomit. He was completely exhausted.

Dao Wuyi was trembling all over, and his limbs were twitching; he was completely exhausted!

"There must be something wrong, there must be something wrong..."

The three of them were on the verge of a mental breakdown because, while they were vomiting violently, they were also experiencing a feeling of fullness.

It looked like he had eaten too much.

This is so surreal!

Moreover, they all understood that this was because their senses were integrated with the Heavenly Dao Worm; whatever the Heavenly Dao Worm felt, they felt too!

And at this moment.

In front of Small Mountain Village.

Under the careful care of a group of children, the Dung Beetle actually grew to the size of a fist!

I don't know if it's because I'm too full or what.

At this moment, the bucket of manure that Daniu and Xiaozhu had brought was already empty.

Wow, dung Dung Beetle can eat so much!

"That's amazing!"

"It's so big!"

A group of children surrounded the Dung Beetle, excitedly discussing it as if they had accomplished something great.

The Heavenly Dao Worm was already on the verge of collapse.

It's so full of food it's practically dizzy!

"Let's go get two more buckets; the Dung Beetle probably haven't had enough yet!"

Upon seeing this, Daniu spoke up in a simple and honest manner.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Dao Worm was immediately shocked.

Damn it...

Is this never going to end?

What kind of demons are these? I, a mere Heavenly Dao Worm, have already devoured an entire bucket of dung, and these devils still won't leave me alone?

It seriously doubted just how much these devils had prepared for it!

That's so unfair to the insects!

It simply kicked off with all four legs and flipped itself up belly up...

This is... lying flat.

It was absolutely unable to eat anymore!

Seeing this, the group of children became anxious.

What's wrong with Dung Beetle?

"Has he eaten enough?"

"I think so..."

They were all filled with doubt.

"Daniu, what are you doing?!"

Just then, Aunt Wang's voice suddenly came from the village entrance.

Upon hearing this, all the children turned their heads.

"Aunt Wang, we're feeding the Dung Beetle!"

"Yes, we fed the Dung Beetle until they were huge!"

"We're amazing!"

A group of children began to speak.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Wang walked over and glanced at the Heavenly Dao Worm.

"This isn't Dung Beetle at all; Dung Beetle don't look like this."

"It's so disgusting, it must be some kind of pest. You'd better stay away from it!"

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Dao Worm on the ground immediately became excited!

My benefactor! He's truly my benefactor!

Yes, I am a pest, I am a pest, stay away from me!

It was so excited that it turned over.

Upon hearing this, the group of children were immediately filled with disappointment.

"Ah, it's not Dung Beetle!"

"Pests, pests!"

"That's outrageous! They made us feed it for so long!"

Wang Erxiao became even angrier and said:

"That bug is so wicked! It actually comes to our village to freeload!"

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Dao Worm trembled.

Is there any justice in this world?

Is there no law left?!

How could there be such a devil, forcing himself to swallow so much... and then even accusing him of freeloading!

But the next moment, it was so scared it peed its pants.

"This bug looks disgusting, move aside, Auntie will swat it."

Aunt Wang picked up her hoe and slapped it down.

No...

I am Dung Beetle, I am Dung Beetle, and I am happy to be Dung Beetle!

I can still eat!!!

Don't kill me!

The Heavenly Dao Worm was terrified. At this moment, it clearly felt that the power of the hoe was far greater than that of the terrifying scythe.

It was so intimidated by this power that it couldn't even move!

"Smack!"

The sound of an insect being swatted.

Aunt Wang casually put away her hoe and said:

"Come on, let's go home with Aunt Wang. She'll bake you some new wheat pancakes."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately cheered.

"Let's go, let's eat some new wheat pancakes!"

The children, being forgetful, instantly forgot about the Dung Beetle and immediately followed Aunt Wang back to the village.

And at this moment.

"No!"

In the Cosmic Star Dome, the Heavenly Pole Divine King, the Liaochen Bodhisattva, and the other two exclaimed in horror.

As they vomited violently, they felt a profound terror, as if death was imminent.

This terrified them, turning them deathly pale. Some even closed their eyes, feeling as if they were about to die.

But then, they fell into a long silence.

Wannong Divine Monarch, Kasyapa Arhat, and others in the distance waited anxiously, wondering what had happened.

After a long, long time.

"We... we didn't die..."

The Heavenly Pole Divine King finally spoke, his voice trembling.

Liaochen said somewhat absentmindedly:

"May Buddha have mercy... has our connection with that Heavenly Dao Worm finally been severed?"

At that moment, he almost wanted to cry. Damn it, that feeling of that stuff being shoved into his throat... it was disgusting!

In fact, none of the three were injured.

From beginning to end... they only suffered inhuman torment in terms of their mental and emotional state.

"No... why, why did the connection suddenly drop?"

At this moment, Dao Wuyi, who had been sweating profusely from nervousness, suddenly asked anxiously:

"My master..."

"He's dead?"

This is the only possibility... The Heavenly Dao Worm has already been exterminated.

His face immediately turned extremely ugly!

It should be noted that the Heavenly Dao Worm is of great use to him, as it can aid his cultivation.

Furthermore, if the Heavenly Dao Worm dies, does that mean their actions have been exposed?

At that point, all your actions will be exposed.

At that moment, his face was covered in cold sweat.

"God King, what do you think?"

At this moment, Liaochen, having regained his composure, looked at the Heavenly Pole Divine King.

The Heavenly Pole Divine King's face was gloomy as he said:

"I suspect that behind this eighth Heavenly Dao Spirit... there is a powerful figure assisting it!"

"The Heavenly Dao Spirit has mysteriously disappeared, and the Heavenly Dao Worm has also been suppressed and killed... This person is no ordinary individual."

In my opinion, we should postpone it for now.

But Liaochen shook his head and said:

"It cannot be delayed."

"This matter must be pursued swiftly, otherwise the grand plan will be exposed immediately."

A cold smile appeared in his eyes as he said:

"As for the person behind the Heavenly Dao Spirit... I think you've overestimated him, God King."

The Heavenly Pole Divine King coldly said:

"Overestimating? Was that near-death experience just now fake?"

The reason he wanted to back out was because the feeling of being locked on and destroyed... made him wary.

As a god-king level figure, he had not felt this way for hundreds of thousands of years.

His appearance now gave him a bad feeling.

"God King, don't forget, everything we just sensed was actually the sensations of the Heavenly Dao Worm!"

"In other words, as long as the Heavenly Dao Worm is afraid, we will be afraid as well. But it is just an insect after all. How can you be sure that the one who killed it was a master and not an ordinary person?"

As he spoke, Liaochen looked at Dao Wuyi and said:

"If I'm not mistaken, although the Heavenly Dao Worm is peculiar, there are quite a few ways to kill it, and it doesn't require an exceptionally powerful being to intervene, right?"

Dao Wuyi nodded and said:

"Indeed... The Heavenly Dao Worm is an unparalleled wonder, capable of devouring the Heavenly Dao, but... it also possesses many fatal weaknesses."

Liaochen nodded and said:

"Therefore, this humble monk suspects that the one who destroyed the Heavenly Dao Worm was not a true powerhouse at all!"

His face was filled with determination as he said;

"Moreover, this is just a lower-level star region, it doesn't even have a God-King level being, how could it possibly pose a threat to us?"

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Pole Divine King also began to ponder.

Liaochen said... makes a lot of sense.

"If it weren't for the Bodhisattva's guidance, I would have truly been deceived."

The Heavenly Pole Divine King immediately spoke, saying:

"So, from the perspective of a Bodhisattva, what should we do now?"

Liaochen then looked at Dao Wuyi and said:

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be able to track down the Heavenly Dao Worm?"

Dao Wuyi nodded and said:

"I am extremely familiar with the aura of the Heavenly Dao Worm, and I can track it."

Liaochen said:

"Then please, fellow Daoist, take action to track it down."

Dao Wuyi looked troubled and said:

"The place where my master died is unknown in its depths; how can I go there lightly..."

Liaochen sighed softly:

"Fellow Daoist, don't you understand?"

"You have no choice. This Eighth Heavenly Dao must die, or the consequences will be endless. Our three families will be infamous for eternity and become enemies of the world."

"Besides, no Eternal Realm has been born in this Starfield, nor have any Divine Lord level figures. What do you have to fear?"

As he spoke, he took out a Crystal Brocade Box.

Inside that brocade box lay a stone.

The stone looked as if it had been soaked in rotten, foul water for too long, appearing black and dull.

The Crystal Brocade Box emitted a faint golden Buddhist light, but even so, the stone was still unsettling, as if it represented some kind of terror.

"What's this?!"

The Heavenly Pole Divine King exclaimed in surprise.

Even he, a god-king, couldn't see through it.

"This item is the Undying Stone."

Liaochen smiled slightly, looked at Dao Wuyi, and said:

"Brother Dao, you must have heard of the legend of this stone? Whoever dies with such a stone by their side will have an immortal soul."

"This is the only place like this in the entire Western Brahma Sect. I'd like to borrow it from you, fellow Daoist!"

He handed the crystal box to Dao Wuyi.

Dao Wuyi's expression was also very solemn. He could tell that this stone... was indeed extraordinary!

It must really be the legendary Undying Stone.

This is a rare and precious treasure that can save your life.

"Alright, since that's the case... I'll venture into the tiger's den to investigate!"

He agreed.
