Reverse-Devouring the Abyss
A blinding green light exploded in the dead silence of deep space, its brightness instantly surpassing that of all the surrounding stars.
The Gargantos Shuma Golas's gaping maw, as deep as Abyss, was now fully open. The terrifying dimensional suction was like a frantically spinning meat grinder, swallowing up meteorites, Stardust, and even light from within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers.
It didn't even glance at the green light. In its long life, it had swallowed more worlds than Jiang Li had eaten.
However.
The moment the green light dissipated, the Gargantos's devouring action suddenly paused.
What appeared before it was no longer that insignificant human being.
Instead, it was a terrifying behemoth whose size had swelled to tens of thousands of meters tall!
This is the Ultimate Gluttony!
After merging the Phoenix Essence with the [Multiversal Energy Core], this alien creation, originally resembling a toad, underwent a dramatic transformation in appearance.
Its body was covered by a layer of dark matter armor that absorbed light like a black hole, with Phoenix fire as hot as magma flowing between the gaps in the armor. Most terrifying of all was its mouth—it was no longer an organ, but a black cavity without physical boundaries. In the deepest part of that black cavity, a miniature galaxy could be vaguely seen slowly rotating.
That was Jiang Li's stomach at that moment.
A galaxy-sized black hole driven by the destructive power of the Phoenix Force!
"Roar--!"
Without a word, Jiang Li, in his Ultimate Gluttony, opened his massive maw of dark matter directly in the face of the Gargantos's overwhelming devouring force.
Boom!
There is no air to carry sound in space, but a gravitational storm powerful enough to instantly collapse the curvature of space erupted with a roar centered on Jiang Li.
If the Gargantos's devouring was a tornado, then Jiang Li's mouth right now is a genuine point of cosmic collapse!
Two incomprehensible devouring forces collided head-on in the cold vacuum.
Click click click click!
The spatial barrier at the intersection of the two forces was riddled with cracks, like poor-quality glass.
There was no stalemate; the moment they made contact, the Gargantos's proud dimensional suction completely collapsed!
The suction storm was forcibly torn apart and reversed. The thousands upon thousands of meteorites that had been sucked into the Gargantos were suddenly brought to a halt in mid-air, and then flew back towards Jiang Li's abyssal Abyss at more than ten times the speed!
"This is impossible!!"
The Gargantos let out a roar that shook the spiritual dimension. For the first time, an emotion called "astonishment" flashed in its single eye.
It is the ruler of the Crimson Dimension, an ancient demon god that survives by devouring the universe. Today, its proud suction force has been completely overwhelmed by an unknown black-armored monster?
"Belch."
Jiang Li swallowed the meteorite belt whole without even chewing, letting out a muffled burp and exhaling a stream of turbid air mixed with Phoenix Mars.
"Too dry. No flavor."
Jiang Li's mental fluctuations were directly transmitted into the Gargantos's mind.
The next second.
From the abyssal maw of Ultimate Gluttony Abyss, dozens of incredibly thick, dark red energy tentacles suddenly shot out! These tentacles, with sharp barbs at their ends, resembled hunting pythons, plunging directly into the spatial turbulence and tightly binding the three largest fleshy tentacles closest to the Gargantos!
"Your seafood looks quite juicy."
Jiang Li suddenly pulled.
Creak--!
The Gargantos's tentacles, powerful enough to shred stars, were forcibly straightened by the energy tentacles extending from Jiang Li's mouth, producing a tearing sound that made one's teeth ache.
"How dare you! You ant, let go of me!"
The Gargantos was completely enraged. Hundreds of tentacles danced wildly, secreting extremely corrosive dimensional Venom, which rained down on Jiang Li.
But Jiang Li neither dodged nor avoided it.
He grabbed the three tentacles and stuffed them directly into his mouth like he was slurping noodles!
Pfft! Snap!
The chilling sound of chewing spread through the vacuum.
Hundreds of eyeballs on the surface of the Gargantos's tentacles burst one after another, spraying fluid everywhere. The tough dimensional muscles were bitten off by the Ultimate Gluttony and swallowed whole.
[Ding! High concentration of dimensional magic energy detected!]
[Initiating Phoenix Essence for digestion...]
[Digestion complete! Successfully plundered 0.5% of the Crimson Dimension's energy source!]
[Emotion Points Critical Hit: +2 Billion!]
The moment Jiang Li swallowed the tentacle, the miniature galaxy in his stomach began to spin at high speed, forcibly crushing and purifying the demonic flesh and blood contaminated with spiritual pollution, turning it into the purest energy to nourish his entire body.
"Not enough! More!"
Having tasted the benefits, Jiang Li's physique grew rapidly once again.
He lunged forward, ignoring the violent explosion caused by the Gargantos's lashes against the dark matter armor, and clung tightly to the Gargantos's body with all four limbs.
With its gaping maw, it bit directly at the edge of the Gargantos's star-like single eye!
Tear it apart!
Jiang Li tore off and swallowed large chunks of dimensional flesh.
The most outrageous mukbang (eating broadcast) is unfolding in this desolate star field.
The 100,000-strong army of Viltrum in the distance, having just regained consciousness under the protection of their mental shield, witnessed this scene through the portholes of their warships—a scene that was enough to shatter their worldview.
In their eyes, the regent, who is sacred and inviolable and rules the universe, cannot even withstand a single punch from Jiang Li.
And now, that terrifying demon god who almost wiped out their entire army with mental pollution is being held down in space by their "new king" and devoured like an octopus sashimi!
"Monster... Your Majesty is the true ultimate monster..." The generals of Viltrum were drenched in cold sweat, their legs trembling uncontrollably. They were incredibly grateful that they had chosen to kneel and submit earlier.
In the center of the battlefield, the Gargantos was driven mad by pain.
As a dimensional deity, it did not experience pain in the true sense, but the feeling of its primordial energy being torn apart and devoured alive gave it a fear it had never felt in hundreds of millions of years.
Its size is shrinking at a visible rate!
This black-armored monster wasn't attacking it, it was actually eating it! And its appetite was so huge that it could never be filled!
"You're insane! You're a complete and utter madman!!"
The Gargantos's mental state was filled with terror. It was afraid; for the first time, it felt a deep despair in the realm of "eating."
It can't be bitten any further; if it's eaten any more, its very core will be devoured!
Bang!
The Gargantos acted decisively and ruthlessly.
It detonated the large portion of the body that Jiang Li had bitten, turning it into a rain of foul-smelling blood that blocked Jiang Li's vision.
Using the force of the explosion, the remaining body of the Gargantos desperately shrank back, its hundreds of broken tentacles frantically clawing at the void, trying to squeeze back into the enormous dimensional rift.
It wants to escape.
It wants to escape back to its home, the Crimson Dimension, and seal that door forever.
"Trying to leave?"
Jiang Li had just swallowed half an eye when he let out a loud burp.
Watching the dimensional rift rapidly healing, and the last remnant of the Gargantos's tentacle shrinking back like a stray dog.
Jiang Li's eyes turned extremely fierce. He abruptly revoked the Ultimate Gluttony form and transformed back into human form.
With a flash, he appeared at the edge of the crack as if he had teleported.
Snap!
Jiang Li gripped the slippery tentacle remnants of the Gargantos tightly with both hands, and stomped heavily on the spatial barrier with both feet, forcefully pulling the Gargantos back from its escape.
He looked up at the single, terrified eye deep within the crack.
"Treat only half the meal? You're being far too stingy, you demon god!"
Jiang Li exerted force with both arms, his veins bulging.
"Since you're so fast... I'll just eat at your place!"
Boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Li completely ignored the cutting force generated by the impending closure of the spatial rift, gripped the tentacle tightly, and used the force of the Gargantos's retreat to plunge headfirst into that crimson unknown dimension!
