Chu Tian's actions caused the little fellow to thrash about.
"Hmph… He is the Ancestral Dragon, true, but am I not? We were born at the same time… He controls destiny, I am the master of devouring!"
The strange dragon within gritted its teeth as it watched the small golden dragon in Chu Tian's hand.
It continued speaking…
"If it weren't for its better luck, it would be the one imprisoned here!"
As it said this, its voice carried a tone of indignation.
Chu Tian found this to be quite astonishing.
That fellow actually claimed to have been born at the same time as the little dragon in his hand?
And it said the small golden dragon in his hand controlled destiny – did that mean luck?
No wonder it was said that an emperor's enthronement, adorned in imperial yellow robes, signified one who gathered the grand fortune of heaven and earth, a true Son of Heaven.
There was indeed a deeper meaning to it.
And the one imprisoned here, its domain was devouring.
What did devouring mean?
He couldn't quite figure it out for the moment.
He thought about it again, this small golden dragon was already his.
Did it bring him here also by chance?
Was there something here that could enhance his strength?
With this thought, Chu Tian began to observe his surroundings.
The so-called Devouring Dragon had already been disregarded by Chu Tian.
It was imprisoned here, and besides being able to swing its tentacles, it couldn't use any other moves.
Presumably, the person who locked it here had left it this as a means of survival.
That is, using its tentacles to… catch fish to eat!
After looking around, he found nothing. This place seemed to only contain this fellow who called itself the Devouring Dragon.
So Chu Tian slowly approached.
Chu Tian refocused his attention on this fellow.
"Heh heh… I advise you not to have any ideas about me."
The Devouring Dragon, confined within the spherical cage, had lived for an unknown amount of time.
How could it not see through Chu Tian's thoughts? This fellow entering here was clearly here to seek treasure and find benefits.
Chu Tian circled the giant egg once, then hesitated for a moment before reaching out his hand to touch the giant egg-shaped cage, crafted from some unknown metal.
The Devouring Dragon within, its eyes shifted.
It did not stop Chu Tian, but rather continued to lie there.
A hint of excitement was subtly revealed.
Chu Tian discovered none of this, but the moment his hand touched the giant egg, the surroundings suddenly changed!
*Creak… creak…*
This gourd was originally brightly lit.
Suddenly, the light before Chu Tian dimmed, and Chu Tian felt a colossal entity suddenly appear.
He looked up, and his lips twitched as he said calmly.
"This is more like it. With such a creature imprisoned here, it's unbelievable there wouldn't be any guardians…"
The dark silhouette above emerged from the luminous walls all around.
Like schools of strange fish.
They merged and reformed in the air.
Until, a massive body appeared.
"What is this thing?"
Chu Tian was somewhat surprised, looking at the colossal entity above his head.
How big was it?
Chu Tian could only see its belly.
It was as if the space within this gourd was completely filled and blocked by it!
Although the outline wasn't clear, the outline within his vision made Chu Tian feel.
This thing looked like an inflated… pufferfish.
Whatever it was…
Chu Tian shot upwards, launching a punch.
*Bang…*
Controlling the single-soldier combat mecha, Chu Tian’s punch was close to full power.
But upon contact with the monster, it felt like hitting cotton.
He, along with the mecha, sank into its soft belly.
When his strength was depleted, he suddenly felt a powerful recoil force surge from all directions.
*Boom…*
Before Chu Tian could react, he was propelled out at an even faster speed.
He was sent crashing straight onto the altar.
The altar flickered.
*Creak… creak…*
Suddenly, it descended with the giant egg.
In the blink of an eye, the giant egg imprisoning the Devouring Dragon vanished without a trace.
As if it had never appeared.
*Splat…*
And Chu Tian, the moment the giant egg disappeared, was slammed directly onto the ground.
With such immense force, the ground remained unharmed.
"What the…" Chu Tian got up.
This thing, it knew how to play… Tai Chi…
His previous move, all its force had been neutralized.
The moment his strength dissipated,
The force retaliated by the other party actually carried Chu Tian's own aura.
At this moment, the creature rotated its body, and Chu Tian finally saw its front.
His guess was correct, it was indeed a… gargantuan pufferfish.
And a pufferfish that was angry…
This creature seemed incredibly furious, pressing its body against Chu Tian.
Its enormous body filled the entire space.
Chu Tian wanted to dodge, but there was nowhere to hide.
…
On Crescent Island, Gao Kai and the others.
They looked at the information brought by Zhao Lei and Ye Ling, dumbfounded.
After the battle of the day, the reckless Xiao Hei was intercepted.
When he set off again, Ma Deju accompanied him back to the Ma Family’s small world.
Not only did he bring back Zhao Lei and Ye Ling, but he also brought… a list.
This was a list of absent players that Zhao Lei and his companions had compiled in the game these past few days.
The Heavenly Dao World had been reopened for two days.
This time, the Heavenly Dao World’s reopening also announced the start date of the expansion pack "Fortress Domination."
There were still three days until the opening.
Zhao Lei and the others had assumed Chu Tian was with Gao Kai and the others.
Therefore, they had not communicated with Gao Kai and the others during these three days.
When Gao Kai and the others saw this list, and after hearing Zhao Lei's narration,
They finally realized that the situation was much more serious than they had imagined.
They had originally thought that Chu Tian's decisive move could eliminate the brainwashed personnel of the Dissension Faction,
And the running dogs of the original factions who were loyal to Elder Xu.
But they hadn't expected… the other side to have such a move of pulling the rug out from under them!
If they received the news, would they directly kill all these people?
Of course… this was just their speculation.
They didn't know that these captured individuals were sent to a place called Qiankun Island.
It was precisely to be made into rations.
"Still no contact with the boss?"
At this moment, Jing Kaiyu walked in from outside. He had just taken the phone from his ear.
Everyone asked him…
Jing Kaiyu shook his head with a grim expression.
*Swish swish…*
Two sounds came from the window.
Everyone's gaze turned towards the window. It was Little Dragon Girl and Ye Ling.
"How is it? Where are they?"
Seeing only the two of them, everyone was surprised.
Earlier, Ye Ling had taken Little Dragon Girl directly to Zhang Chengcheng's residence.
The two girls shook their heads, Ye Ling’s expression was not very good.
She said slowly, "Something must have happened. The tempered glass on the top floor of Zhang Chengcheng's villa was blown through, and the house is a mess!"
Everyone listened with worried expressions.
"There's news, there's news, there's news…"
Suddenly, a woman's shout came from the corridor.
Everyone covered their faces.
Ma Deju buried his head in the sofa.
This voice was none other than Ma Deju's aunt.
As expected…
The sound grew closer, appearing at the corner of the doorway.
Aunt Ma, wearing a pair of pajamas and holding a phone.
She was as excited as a child.
"I know where Chu Tian went… He went to Sacred Island… on the Flying Dragon cruise ship, with that girl from the Zhang family, staying in a presidential honeymoon suite!"
Before anyone could ask her, Aunt Ma blurted out everything she knew.
