Chapter 3937: Starry Sky Giant Beast

In this battle, the Demon Race again equalized the strengths of both sides, allowing all the Demon Race members to shake off their despair; otherwise they would all be worrying that the Demon Race was about to be annihilated.

So even though they only used these borrowed powers for a single fight, they were very satisfied.

Now they are rushing back at full speed, hoping to return these borrowed powers to Ye Liuyun soon, so that he can leave quickly, lest any careless one provoke him again and cause him to unleash a massive killing spree.

Now both races hope he leaves quickly. When the Clone Puppet relayed the news to Ye Liuyun, Ye Liuyun also laughed.

He also joked, "I guess when they meet the Human Race again, they'll act cautiously and won't kill on sight!"

He indeed did not linger; after gathering the people back and finishing the Mineral Vein, he left the Demon Race directly, so the two races wouldn't have to stay on edge guarding him daily.

Afterwards his Flying Boat continued westward, and he did not use that Void Warship.

He now thinks wandering like this in the starry sky is indeed fine.

The Clone Puppet, with the Metal Puppet, took charge of piloting the Flying Boat, rotating cultivation shifts.

Ye Liuyun led everyone to accelerate cultivation within the Cave Heaven World.

His realm smoothly broke through to the later stage of the Second Stage of Dong Tian, and each day, besides refining the Divine Core, he continued to enhance his Soul, bloodline, and Physical Body.

Now all of their resources are abundant. Those Magic Crystal Mineral Veins, Ye Liuyun distributed to Lei Ming and other Demon Beasts and demons, and everyone instantly entered cultivation mode.

He also handed the Metal Mineral Vein to the artificer, letting them allocate it as they wish. Since he currently has no need for forging, he let the artificers schedule their own time.

However, the starry sky is a gathering of strong ones, with constant danger. They still occasionally have to pause and deal with threats.

In the two months after leaving the Demon Race, they encountered five attacks: one from the Demon Race, one from a Starry Sky Giant Beast, and three from Human Race Martial Cultivators.

Each time turned into a fierce battle, and none were won easily.

Of course, neither Ye Liuyun nor the Clone Puppet used Temporal or Spatial Power; instead they trained with Ye Jin Yuan and the Monster Beasts.

This time, they faced another attack by a Starry Sky Giant Beast.

This Starry Sky Giant Beast was also very strange: its body resembled a silkworm, with two rows of slightly long fleshly legs beneath, and its mouth bore two claw‑shaped long tusks.

It measured over two hundred zhang in length. Its realm was not high, only Hédào Yīchóng.

Its body was gray‑black, and against the pitch‑black starry sky, it was hard to spot with the naked eye when stationary.

If it hadn't been that the Clone Puppet was changing shifts, using Golden Pupil to scan the outside, Ye Liuyun's Flying Boat would have nearly collided with its mouth.

"Turn!"

The Clone Puppet, upon noticing, immediately ordered the Flying Boat to turn.

But just as they turned, the insect giant beast reappeared ahead, still with its huge mouth open, swinging its claws to swallow them.

"U‑turn!"

The Clone Puppet simply made the Flying Boat execute a 180‑degree turn to distance itself from the huge insect.

Yet it materialized again in front of the Flying Boat, as if ready to devour them.

The Clone Puppet both halted the Flying Boat and called Ye Liuyun, then pulled the Flying Boat together with the Metal Puppet inside into the Space World.

"This huge insect's Spatial Power is not weak; even I didn't detect any spatial fluctuation, yet it moved directly."

The Clone Puppet immediately told Ye Liuyun.

"Aoo!"

The giant insect, seeing its prey vanish, let out a howl and launched a sound‑wave attack at them.

Fortunately, Ye Liuyun and the Clone Puppet's Divine Soul Power were strong enough, so they were not injured by the shock.

They instantly coordinated to employ Red Pupil Illusion Technique, making it "see" a Flying Boat appear in another direction.

The giant insect immediately chased that "Flying Boat," tossing the two of them aside.

This time, Ye Liuyun and the Clone Puppet focused intently on its use of Spatial Power, yet still detected no spatial fluctuation; it simply shifted over.

"With such a massive body and no spatial ripple at all, how does it manage that?" Ye Liuyun was also very curious.

"Moreover, we can't see its Soul either; we don't know if it lacks one or if it's concealed!" the Clone Puppet was equally curious.

So they both refrained from acting, instead using illusion to make the insect run back and forth before them for close observation.

They kept accelerating the "Flying Boat's" speed to watch the insect's reactions.

In the end they concluded: "It must be Spatial Power. Its Spatial Power seems innate and far superior to ours. This also shows that our Spatial Power still has room for improvement."

"Why doesn't this insect attack us? Does it think we're too small?" the Clone Puppet asked.

The strange insect can see the two of them, yet it hasn't attacked them, only showing interest in the Flying Boat.

"Try it and you'll know!"

Ye Liuyun said, then used illusion to make the insect see another Flying Boat and a gray ape over ten zhang tall.

The insect alternated between chasing the original Flying Boat and the newly appeared one, never attacking the gray ape.

"Perhaps it only cares about metal!" Ye Liuyun guessed.

So he transformed another Flying Boat into a lump of metal; indeed, the insect still chased the metal.

"Now test an attack."

Ye Liuyun then let the gray ape attack the insect.

The insect first let out a howl, launching a sound‑wave attack, but seeing no effect, it immediately used Spatial Power to lock the gray ape in place.

"Roar!"

The gray ape let out a furious roar, tearing through its void seal.

Of course, all this was Ye Liuyun's woven illusion; in reality he and the Clone Puppet could not see any of it, only the insect could.

The insect also roared angrily, deploying void seals, void displacements, void black holes, and a barrage of spatial attack skills toward the gray ape, until the void shredded and devoured the ape; only then did it turn back to chase the Flying Boat and the metal.

This time Ye Liuyun and the Clone Puppet finally sensed a slight spatial ripple, confirming the insect's Spatial Power was strong.

But their illusion tests showed the insect's intelligence was low, and its Divine Soul Power was also weak.

"Kill it; it's useless!" they concluded unanimously.

So they used the Flying Boat as bait, forcing the insect to hover before them. Ye Liuyun and the Clone Puppet instantly drew their blades, cleaving the insect into several pieces.

They also didn't know where the worm's vital point was; in any case, they cut off the segment that had the elemental core, and it should then have no attack power.

The worm was cut into several sections, but it didn't die immediately; instead it kept hissing, and finally Ye Liuyun and the others chopped its brain into pieces, after which it fell still.

The worm's Physical Body was also taken by Ye Liuyun into the Cave Heaven World, to give to the Monster Beasts to see if they could eat it.
