Hum!
A black light flashed.
A miniature black hole appeared in his hand, and a greedy thought filled his mind, making him frown slightly.
He placed his palm on the corpse of the Black Lizard Demon.
Instantly, streams of pure power surged into his body.
The power within him began to increase non-stop.
Five percent!
Ten percent!
Fifteen percent!
The strength finally stopped increasing when it reached fifteen percent.
He opened his eyes and saw that the Black Lizard Demon's corpse had become a skin-and-bones husk, its essence completely absorbed.
Li Gong glanced at the withered corpse on the ground, unsure how to deal with it. From a distance, the Blue Dragon looked on with greed.
Lin Yu glanced at it and chuckled, "It's yours!"
The Blue Dragon's eyes widened upon hearing this, it became incredibly excited, like a fawning puppy. In a few steps, it arrived before the demigod's remains and swallowed them whole.
Even though most of the corpse's power had been consumed, the remaining strength was still immensely beneficial to the Blue Dragon.
Lin Fan watched from the side, smiling, "Big Brother, continue!"
Lin Yu's strength increased by fifteen percent, and he, Lin Fan, as the clone, had his strength boosted by thirty percent.
Who could refuse such an increase in power?
Considering there were still two more corpses, if he absorbed all of them, his strength would double.
Lin Yu chuckled, "Be careful I don't sever the power synchronization!"
Power synchronization was a talent skill Lin Yu had recently awakened, allowing his clone and main body's strength to remain synchronized at all times.
When his strength increased, the clone's strength would immediately grow without him having to actively update it, keeping it synchronized with the main body.
"Don't, Big Brother, I won't speak anymore. I'll be a good boy, okay? Woo woo woo!!!"
He deliberately closed his mouth and made whimpering sounds. Lin Yu was speechless, waved his hand, and said, "Go play, don't disturb me."
"Alright, alright!" Lin Fan obediently descended.
After he left, Lin Yu looked at the next corpse.
He took a deep breath and activated his talent.
"Life Drain!"
He placed his palm on the Red Sheep Demon.
Instantly, the same sensation washed over him, and his internal power began to increase rapidly.
Five percent!
Ten percent!
Thirteen percent!
It stopped abruptly at thirteen percent. He was taken aback, then laughed, "I've become stronger, so the rate of increase naturally becomes smaller. I can't be too greedy."
He threw the remaining remains of the Red Sheep Demon to the Blue Dragon, which pounced like a dog and swallowed it in one gulp.
Now for the main event.
The Green Snake Demon. It was the strongest of the three demigods, capable of fighting the Sword God to a draw. It was truly an astonishing talent.
However, it too would now become his source of power.
"Life Drain!"
Instantly, streams of power poured into his body.
His strength was rapidly increasing, and the speed had even increased by thirty percent.
It finally stopped after increasing his strength by twenty percent.
"Phew, a twenty percent increase is already quite significant, considering I've already absorbed two demigods before."
"My overall strength has now more than doubled compared to before."
"If I were to encounter the Red Sheep Demon again, a combined clone would be able to kill it with ease."
He glanced at the Green Snake Demon's remains on the ground. The Blue Dragon looked at him expectantly from a distance.
Lin Yu nodded. The Blue Dragon could no longer hold back and pounced, swallowing the Green Snake Demon's remains.
Afterward, it lay on the ground, looking like it had eaten too much.
Lin Fan walked over and kicked it a couple of times, "Silly dragon, are you alright?"
The Blue Dragon whimpered and shook its head, pointing at its belly, indicating it was stuffed.
Lin Fan chuckled, "Then digest it well."
With that, he also sat down on the ground, gazing at the sunset.
A fierce battle had raged from morning until evening, and now everything had quieted down.
Lin Yu, in rare calmness, also sat on the ground with Lin Fan, watching the sunset.
The Blue Dragon finally digested some of its power and lay on the ground, also watching the sunset.
One dragon and two people, three figures, cast long shadows under the glow of the setting sun. They all gazed at the sky, silent.
The scene was peaceful and serene.
Lin Yu narrowed his eyes, his thoughts racing.
The experiences of the past few months played out like a movie in his mind.
Jicheng, Guixu, the Eastern Sea, the Abyss—all flowed through his thoughts.
After an unknown amount of time, the sunset dipped below the horizon.
The moon rose high into the sky, and streaks of silvery moonlight cascaded down, cloaking the small island in a silver garment.
He stood up and flew towards the deeper parts of the sea.
Lin Fan quickly followed, "Big Brother, where are we going?"
"The fierce beasts in this area have all been cleared out. We're going deeper!"
Lin Fan's eyes lit up, "Great! Wait for me!"
Lin Yu, however, flew even faster.
Lin Fan grabbed the Blue Dragon's tail, saying, "You silly dragon, you're so slow. I still have to carry you, Master!"
He dragged the Blue Dragon, stepping in the Sumeru Buddha steps, and kept pace with Lin Yu.
Lin Yu, on the other hand, used the Sparrow Steps, each flicker covering thousands of meters.
Soon, they had traversed over a thousand miles, reaching the deeper parts of the sea.
The clone followed closely beneath the water, searching for new targets.
Lin Yu ventured this far because he was searching for demigods. The effect of one demigod was comparable to him continuously consuming Grade Four Blood Pills for a year.
He was somewhat addicted now. Killing demigods was the fastest way to become stronger.
He was confident that he was already invincible on the current Blue Star, hence he was fearlessly seeking out demigods.
However, after traveling over a thousand miles in the sea, he still hadn't encountered a single demigod, not even a decent alien race.
Finally, he stopped above a rather large island.
It was a diamond-shaped island, smaller than Sanxian Island.
As soon as he appeared, a little mermaid leaped out of the water.
She held a trident, her young face filled with wariness.
"This is Mermaid territory ahead. Please... please stop!" a childish voice reached his ears.
Lin Yu looked down.
He saw a little girl mermaid, with long hair and a chubby face. Her upper body was human, and her lower body was that of a fish. She was very cute.
Lin Yu scanned with his consciousness, feeling a bit disappointed. There were no demigods among this alien race.
"Little mermaid, do you know where the nearby demigods have gone?"
The little mermaid looked at him strangely, but since he asked, she answered innocently, "They've gone to other oceans. They said it's very dangerous here, so all the races nearby have left."
Lin Yu found it strange, why had they all left?
Did they know I was coming to kill them?
"Why didn't you leave?" Lin Yu asked.
The little mermaid said, "My older sister said we're too weak and leaving would be more dangerous. We're planning to seek refuge with the humans."
Seek refuge with humans?
Lin Yu suddenly felt a little more favorable towards them.
Information about mermaids appeared in Lin Yu's mind.
Mermaids, along with the Jiao people, belonged to the same group, but there was a vast difference in their innate talents.
Jiao people were generally deep-sea dwellers with powerful strength, but mermaids usually lived in shallow waters and were relatively weaker.
"Little girl, you are very honest. Here's a bottle of pills as a reward!"
Lin Yu took out a bottle of pills from his spatial bracelet and tossed it to her before turning to leave.
He refused to believe that in this vast Eastern Sea, he wouldn't be able to find a single demigod.
Moonlight shone on the sea, and three figures streaked across the sky.
By now, he had flown for tens of thousands of miles, but to his disappointment, apart from weak races like mermaids, all slightly stronger races had fled.
Along the way, apart from killing some fierce beasts, he was too lazy to kill these intelligent races because they had said they wanted to seek refuge with humans.
Regardless of whether they were telling the truth or not, he believed that the Grand Ministers would send people to subdue them soon.
Thousands of miles away.
This was already a deeper part of the sea, and even the fierce beasts were stronger.
Suddenly!
Ahead, a mountain stretching for a hundred miles, ten thousand meters high, blocked his view like a natural barrier. He knew this was the border of the Eastern Sea.
A powerful aura emanated from within the mountain, making him pause slightly.
Immediately, he rejoiced, "Haha, I finally found one!"
