Chapter 948: Your World

The pitch-black sky, the swamp-filled earth, and the ruins from all directions composed a thick gloom and oppression!

And in this dark and dim Sui Ruins world, there actually appeared such a human old man!

This scene was filled with bizarreness!

Whether the other party was human or ghost, strange or god, Xu Qing couldn't tell!

But his inner vigilance and nervousness had reached their limit!

Because he could feel that ever since he stepped into the Outer Sea, the looming gaze had come from this place—to be precise, from this old man before him!

And this answer was also the source of his nervousness!

The other party's intentions were unclear, and good and evil were hard to distinguish!

Xu Qing could roughly imagine that from the moment he stepped into the Outer Sea, he had been watched until this meeting. Being able to do this meant that the strength of the person before him likely exceeded the Divine Platform!

"Could he be trapped here?"

Xu Qing's thoughts just rose, but were immediately cut off by him. He had come into contact with many gods and understood that some terrifying existences only needed one glance to know the thoughts in his heart!

Thus, he put away all thoughts and bowed deeply toward the old man!

"Greetings, Senior."

So he put away all his thoughts and bowed deeply toward the old man!

With just one sweep of the other party's gaze, he felt as if his soul had been seen through; all secrets seemed unable to be hidden!

And such a powerhouse—Chen Erniu searched his memory and was very certain he hadn't seen this old man before. Even adding the memories of his past life, he was still a stranger to this person!

However, his own uniqueness made Chen Erniu more accurate than Xu Qing in judging the other party's cultivation!

"What realm is this? Xia Xian? True God? Or above Xia Xian? Above True God?"

Thinking of this, the Captain breathed rapidly, his scalp tingling a bit, so he hurriedly put on a fawning and pleasing expression and bowed deeply to the old man who was roasting meat!

"Junior Chen Erniu, greetings, Senior. Thank you for the grace of naming me. For such great kindness, Junior will surely be loyal and devoted, repaying the kindness with all my might. From now on, Junior will be called Hairy Monster."

Chen Erniu's words fell into Xu Qing's ears like thunder!

He knew his Captain too well. It was extremely rare for the other party to be so respectful at the first moment!

One had to know that even with Yu Liuchen, the Captain only flattered him!

But now, he actually said the other party had the grace of naming him...

Being able to make the Captain do this, Xu Qing felt the old man's terror even more deeply, so he became even more careful!

By the campfire, the old man smiled enigmatically, his gaze sweeping over Xu Qing and Chen Erniu again!

"Hairy Monster, you have the aura of a curse on you... Interesting. How come I feel this curse was cast by yourself on yourself? There are quite a few past lives. I'll count you as a human for now!"

As soon as these words came out, Chen Erniu laughed dryly!

And as the old man spoke, he flipped the iron-skewered meat in his hand. Waves of rotting odor spread, making one want to vomit, but after smelling it, he swallowed his saliva, looking as if it were very delicious!

"Do you want to eat?"

The old man asked!

Xu Qing hesitated!

Chen Erniu hurriedly shook his head. Ever since he ate the cold air and grew hair all over his body, he had indeed had an upset stomach for this period of time. Most importantly, he didn't dare to eat!

Although he once felt that there was nothing his stomach couldn't digest, looking at the old man's gaze, he felt it was better not to eat!

"We won't eat. We... we came here full!"

The old man's expression sank upon hearing this!

Instantly, the feeling of oppression all around grew thick, the firmament roared, as if about to shatter, the earth churned, and water vapor rose!

The swamp seemed about to dry up.

This scene made both Xu Qing and Chen Erniu's hearts jump!

Chen Erniu's expression turned solemn in an instant, and he turned to look at Xu Qing, extremely serious!

"Little Junior Brother, why don't you hurry and accompany the old gentleman to eat? Respecting the old and loving the young is the virtue of our human race. The old gentleman is old, and you are young."

Xu Qing looked at Chen Erniu, pondering in his heart!

He understood the meaning in the Captain's words. This old man was bizarre; if he continued to refuse, he worried he would turn hostile. And his own physical body was unique...

Thinking of this, Xu Qing showed decisiveness in his eyes, walked to the campfire, and sat down cross-legged!

Seeing Xu Qing come over, the old man raised his hand and threw a meat skewer over!

Xu Qing was heavy-hearted, grabbed it, looked at the meat skewer before him, and smelled the nauseating odor. He gritted his teeth hard and took a bite.

The next instant, his expression suddenly turned strange. He looked down at the meat skewer in his hand and took another bite!

After chewing and swallowing, feeling the unparalleled deliciousness and the fiery heat within his body, Xu Qing silently finished the meat skewer in three or five bites!

Not far away, Chen Erniu watched all this, feeling curious. Just as he was about to open his mouth to ask Xu Qing, the old man by the campfire had a meaningful smile on his face, looking at Xu Qing!

"Is it delicious!"

Xu Qing nodded. This meat of unknown origin could be said to be the most delicious thing he had ever eaten in his life!

The old man smiled, raised his right hand, and grabbed toward the empty space on his right. Instantly, a loud roar came from his right side, and a wall of meat from the distance was taken as if by force, coming like a mountain toppling and the sea overturning!

This wall was as high as the sky, vast and endless, as if the wall of this world followed the approach, and the world seemed to have shrunk!

Finally, beside the old man, this vast wall of meat stopped, and the old man's hand slashed across the wall of meat, cutting off a strip of meat, skewering it on an iron skewer, and continuing to roast!

This scene made Xu Qing gasp!

Chen Erniu's eyeballs almost fell out, staring straight at that wall. This was no wall at all; this was clearly the meat inside the terrifying creature they were currently in.

Seeing this, Chen Erniu licked his lips and hurriedly spoke, "Old gentleman, that... actually, I wasn't full earlier either."

"I wasn't full either."

The old man spoke indifferently and handed another skewer to Xu Qing!

Chen Erniu felt aggrieved but didn't dare to say more, only able to stare at Xu Qing with longing eyes!

Xu Qing hurriedly took it, ignored Chen Erniu, and continued to eat!

The fiery heat within his body grew richer. By the end, almost every mouthful he swallowed, his aura would erupt with a roar!

Now, he naturally understood that this meat skewer could be called a fortuitous encounter for him.

His soul was nourished, and the connection with his flesh and blood became even closer!

Thus, he tried his best, mouthful after mouthful!

Chen Erniu grew more and more anxious in his heart, his saliva almost flowing out, but he didn't dare to approach. Finally, he could only silently tell himself in his heart, 'Isn't it just a piece of meat? What's the big deal!'

Just like that, under Chen Erniu's longing gaze, Xu Qing and the old man each ate several skewers. Finally, Xu Qing really couldn't eat anymore!

Although he still wanted to eat, and his physical body could accommodate it, his soul, after surging quite a bit, showed signs of saturation!

Seeing this, the old man had a smile on his face!

"Since you like eating so much, fine. I have some fruits here, so let's roast them!"

As the old man spoke, he raised his hand and grabbed into the void. Instantly, a bunch of black grapes flew out of thin air and landed in his hand!

These grapes had more than thirty grains, crowded together, each one very plump!

It was just... after Xu Qing's gaze looked over, he vaguely felt they were a bit familiar!

Until he saw these grapes actually trembling, and one of them opened a crack, like an eye!

Xu Qing's heart shook violently!

"This is..."

Chen Erniu was even more struck by heavenly thunder, his heart also shaking wildly!

While the two were horrified in their hearts, the old man pinched a grape with two fingers. After a faint, miserable wail, he pulled it off and threw it to the side!

Instantly, that grape grew larger with a 'boom'!

It became a huge eye, radiating dazzling light!

It was exactly the sun that appeared in the divine dream they encountered on their journey!

At that time, Chen Erniu had said this god was terrifying, and its dream was actually half-real!

And now, this half-real dream sun actually appeared in the old man's hand, becoming the fruit in his words!

Xu Qing gasped, Chen Erniu's mind roared!

They stared blankly as the old man cut some meat from this huge sun, skewered a few skewers, and was about to roast them!

Xu Qing took a deep breath, stood up immediately, and spoke respectfully, "Senior, let me do it!"

The old man smiled and gave it to Xu Qing!

Xu Qing took it, feeling a great force erupt in his hand, causing him to sink violently. The next instant, he operated his cultivation, his physical body giving its all, and only then did he manage to hold it steady!

He placed it trembling on the campfire!

Chen Erniu looked at the grapes, the longing in his heart infinite, so he immediately patted his chest!

"Senior, I see the fire is about to go out. I'm good at blowing fire. I'm very good at blowing!"

As he spoke, Chen Erniu ran over, squatted there, and blew at the campfire!

The old man looked at the two, smiling enigmatically, but didn't stop them!

Just like that, under Xu Qing and Chen Erniu's efforts, the grapes were finally roasted!

The first skewer naturally belonged to the old man!

For the second skewer, Xu Qing looked at his hardworking Captain!

"Give it to him!"

The old man said casually!

Chen Erniu was excited, took the grape meat skewer Xu Qing sent over, and ate it in big mouthfuls, his eyes glowing!

For the last skewer, Xu Qing took a deep breath and took a bite. Instantly, his body roared, and his soul, after saturation, actually climbed again, especially the divine source within his body, which also boiled!

For a time, besides the sound of the campfire burning and swallowing, there was no other sound here!

After a long while, Xu Qing really couldn't eat anymore. Seeing his Captain still wanting more, he simply gave his own half-skewer to him!

Chen Erniu was moved and devoured it greedily!

Beside them, the old man watched this scene, patted his stomach, and stood up!

"Meeting is fate. The little thing I'm waiting for is about to arrive, so I'll be going!"

As he spoke, he looked at Xu Qing and the other two again.

"Although you are not my clansmen, you are human. However, the world you are in actually attracted the Upper Desolation. I don't know if it's good or bad for the living beings of your world!"

"And you, kid."

The old man looked at Xu Qing!

"The one who helped you shape your physical body is your elder, right? The guts are really big, and the path is wild. You have courage. However, you shouldn't have come to the Primitive Sea. Coming here, the aura on your body will spread to the entire Star Ring!"

"This is also the reason I lured you here after sensing you. I wanted to see this physical body of yours shaped with Upper Desolation flesh and blood!"

"This is an unprecedented path!"

"However, the humans of your world have too little cognition of the Primitive Sea. It's normal not to know the reason why you shouldn't come!"

As the old man spoke, his gaze landed on Xu Qing's eyes, full of admiration!

"Your character is also not bad, knowing to come and help, not a person who eats for free. This Hairy Monster also put in effort. Fine, I'll help you flick off the dirty things on your body!"

As he spoke, the old man raised his hand and waved!

Instantly, a fiery wind rushed toward Xu Qing and Chen Erniu!

The next instant, Xu Qing heard a miserable wail echoing behind him!

Two blurry soul shadows manifested from his and Chen Erniu's bodies, rolled backward in the hot wind, and drifted to the distance. After this, these two soul shadows merged and actually turned into the little girl they had encountered earliest!

She had actually never left.

Currently appearing, the little girl looked at the old man in horror!

"Get lost!"

The old man spoke indifferently!

The little girl trembled and disappeared instantly!

Xu Qing and the Captain were in turmoil, immediately stood up to thank him, with countless questions in their hearts, about to ask!

The old man suddenly looked up toward the sky, a smile appearing on his face!

"The little thing I'm waiting for has arrived!"

Two blurry soul shadows manifested from his and Chen Erniu's bodies, swirling in the hot wind. After drifting into the distance, these two soul shadows merged and actually transformed into the little girl they had encountered earliest!

It had never left.

After appearing, the little girl looked at the old man in terror!

"Scram!"

The old man spoke indifferently!

The little girl trembled and vanished instantly!

Xu Qing and the Senior Brother, their hearts surging, immediately stood up to thank him, countless questions in their minds, about to inquire!

The old man suddenly raised his head, looking upward, a smile appearing on his face!

"The little thing I've been waiting for has arrived!"
