Chapter 457: Chapter 453: Wild Boar King Reduced to Food (4)
The Black Pig King was scared out of his wits. ’What the hell kind of Spirit Monsters are these? They’re monstrously strong!’
Both of its arms were clamped in two bloody maws, while its feet were pinned by a Cat Spirit Giant Beast, rendering it immobile. Suddenly, the Wild Boar King was no longer thinking about charging over to kill the molting Snake Spirit. Instead, its own life was in grave danger.
No, its life wasn’t just in danger—it was hanging by a thread.
The sky above went dark. With its arms and legs trapped, yet another bloody maw shot toward its boar head.
The swaying Snake Head’s pupils glinted with a cold light, filled with greed and bloodlust.
’That’s right, greed. This Evil Snake wants to eat me, the Black Pig King!’
"No... Don’t! Let go! Let go!" The Black Pig King’s eyes filled with terror as it struggled for its life.
’Dammit! I’m a mighty Rank Three Demon Spirit, yet I can’t even break free from two mere Spirit Monsters!’
"Bloodthirsty Wolf King, save me!"
The Black Pig King swallowed its pride and cried for help. ’For a Rank Three Demon Spirit like me to die at the hands of two Rank Two Spirit Monsters... that’s just too humiliating!’
To be more precise, it would be an incredibly humiliating death—one that deserved to be carved into a pillar of historical shame.
In the distance, the Bloodthirsty Wolf King wasn’t having an easy time either. It was covered in injuries and silently cursed that useless Black Pig King. ’It’s been almost ten minutes! Forget killing the molting Snake Spirit, he hasn’t even broken through the perimeter!’
’I should have just had him hold back the Bull Demon King and gone myself.’
’Regrets. It’s too late for anything now. I’ve lost the initiative.’
Suddenly, he heard the Black Pig King’s cry for help. He was about to let loose a string of curses but turned to look, and the sight shocked him like a thunderclap overhead. His entire body went numb.
What did it see? It saw the Black Pig King’s ugly head brutally ripped off by a bloody maw. Blood gushed from the severed neck like a fountain, bewitchingly red as fire.
At the same time, the Wild Boar King’s arms were ripped off by the other two bloody maws, and its legs were snapped off by the Cat Spirit Giant Beast. It was a gruesome scene of dismemberment, utterly horrific and bloody.
The wounds on the Wild Boar King’s severed limbs glowed red. Its twitching flesh and fresh blood sprayed toward the azure sky, like bewitching lotuses silently blooming in the valley...!
And just like that, the Rank Three Demon Spirit, the Wild Boar King, died a miserable death.
The whole process happened too fast for anyone to react. The Wild Boar King’s upper torso received no dignity in death; the Cat Spirit Giant Beast and the Three-headed Evil Snake began to frantically fight over it, tearing and biting as they feasted with great gusto.
SCREECH...
Just then, the Immortal Forest Peacock, which had been perched gracefully upon a massive, ancient tree, descended in a magnificent display. It joined the scramble for the Wild Boar King’s flesh and blood, each one of them eating with pure delight.
The Immortal Forest Peacock’s participation made countless creatures’ jaws drop. It was supposed to be a noble Peacock, yet here it was, stooping to the level of a Vulture.
The mighty Rank 3 Wild Boar King died without a complete corpse, becoming food for these three Super level Creatures.
In an instant, it was completely devoured.
Shock. The scene left all the onlookers utterly dumbfounded, as if their throats had gone dry. A mighty Rank Three Demon Spirit had died just like that. This was the king of an entire bloodline of wild boars!
It had died a horrible death at the hands of two Spirit Monsters, reduced to nothing but food.
In an instant, the entire area fell deathly silent. The sky itself seemed ready to collapse as a suffocating pressure swept through the valley. All the creatures could only stare in horror as the Wild Boar King’s corpse was devoured, leaving not a single scrap of flesh behind.
This world was simply too insane. A king among boars who had Crossed the Tribulation to attain his status, one who had transcended the mundane, still could not escape the fate of being eaten as food.
The most humiliating part was that the Wild Boar King had been eaten by Rank Two Spirit Monsters.
"Holy crap, you three went too far!" the Bull Demon King protested from a distance. "You didn’t even leave a bite for this old bull! I’ve never eaten the meat of a Rank Three Demon Spirit before; it must be incredibly delicious."
After eating the Wild Boar King’s meat, Golden Pupils, the Three-headed Snake, and the Azure Owl all began to glow. Their auras surged dramatically.
This was clearly a sign of their Realms advancing.
Tu Xiao’an, who was busy molting while watching the show, let out a cold sneer. He wasn’t surprised at all by the Wild Boar King’s miserable death; in fact, he felt it was well-deserved.
’My Battle Companions are each more monstrous than the last. They’re all Super level Creatures with savage temperaments. If you treat them like ordinary Spirit Monsters, you’re just asking for death.’
’If I weren’t immobilized right now, I’d have wanted a piece of that pork, too. I’ve never eaten a Rank Three Demon Spirit, either.’
’What a loss. A huge loss.’
After eating the Wild Boar King’s meat, the three little ones’ auras surged, and they all went up by one Level.
The data appeared.
Golden Pupils: Level 27.
Three-headed Snake: Level 27.
Peacock Azure Owl: Level 26.
The three little ones had just gained three Levels, and now, after eating the Wild Boar King’s meat, their Levels shot up once again, skyrocketing like a rocket.
What kind of Spirit Monsters could possibly increase their strength at such a speed? Gaining even a single Level was no joke; it was a feat built up over a long time. But for them, it was an effortless three Levels here, an effortless one Level there.
At this rate, it probably wouldn’t be long before they, too, could attempt to Cross the Tribulation.
However, this particular power-up was understandable. After all, that was a Rank Three Demon Spirit that had cultivated for many years. The value of its flesh and blood was unimaginable—it was a first-class Heavenly and Earthly Treasure containing immense Energy.
Tu Xiao’an had understood the division of labor between the Wild Boar King and the Bloodthirsty Wolf King. The Wild Boar King thought it had gotten the easy job, at least not having to face the Pseudo Demon King Level Bull Demon King, but rather three mere Spirit Monster-level Demons.
But it never imagined it would die so miserably, without a single scrap of flesh remaining, let alone a complete corpse.
It’s impossible for Awakened Creatures to leave behind a complete corpse upon death. Their very flesh and blood are treasures. The corpse of a Demon Spirit, even more so, was the kind of prize that could spark a war among Demons.
"What a loss, what a loss! Charlie missed out, too! I didn’t get to eat any Demon Spirit meat!" the Tree Spirit grumbled from the side.
Tu Xiao’an’s voice piped up, "You’re a plant. You want to eat meat? You’re an herbivore."
"Oh, right! Charlie’s an herbivore."
...
"Those Demons are so brazen! It’s one thing to kill the Wild Boar King, but to brutally devour him? You have to remember, the Wild Boar King wasn’t just the king of a bloodline—he was a subordinate of the Great White Demon King! They’re poking a sleeping dragon!"
"If the Great White Demon King finds out, he’ll be furious! Who can possibly withstand the wrath of a Demon King?"
Realizing this, many of the onlookers grew fearful. ’Are those Super level Creatures just newborn calves that don’t fear the tiger?’
One by one, they thought with a mixture of envy, jealousy, and spite: ’You’re feasting happily now, but your deaths will come even faster.’
’Daring to eat the Great White Demon King’s own subordinate... This is absolute rebellion!’
Little did the onlookers know that at this very moment, Azure Owl, Golden Pupils, and the Three-headed Snake were overjoyed by the surge in strength they’d gained from eating the Wild Boar King’s meat.
Soon, one by one, they turned their greedy gazes toward the Bloodthirsty Wolf King in the distance.
The Bloodthirsty Wolf King was still in shock, unable to process the Wild Boar King’s death. But when it suddenly felt several greedy gazes land upon it, a chill shot down its spine.
’What now? You want to eat this Wolf King, too?’
