Chapter 1340 - 1086: New Worm

Seeing his Modified Warriors shrinking in size and decreasing in strength, Yahola knew his chances were slipping away. In this confrontation with the Giant, he hadn’t even seen the Giant and had already lost. Indeed, being a Divine Worm, it was futile to compete in technology with the Giant!

But if you think that I’d be out of options, you’re sorely mistaken!

Yahola suddenly shouted and turned to run through a sliding automatic door. Mahal knew Yahola was trying to escape; how could he let this chance for revenge slip away? He immediately chased after him and, after breaking through several metal doors, Mahal arrived at another warehouse. There, Yahola was standing in front of a large Tetrahedron.

This Tetrahedron was dark gold in color and covered with intricate and strange runes.

"Actually, I never intended to use this thing in my lifetime, but you forced my hand!"

Crack!

The enormous Tetrahedron opened a small crevice, and instantly, a thick red beam of light emerged from inside.

"Yahola! You fool! Have you finally decided to let me out?" the red light flickered with astonishing fluctuations, and immediately, Mahal felt as if all the strength in his body was being drained away!

"Hehehe, the one born from a thousand worms devouring each other, shouldn’t you be thanking me?" Yahola said with a laugh.

"Ahahaha! Yes, yes! I should indeed thank you! How about I eat you instead!" the fluctuation flickered, but Yahola showed no reaction.

"Don’t bother, I have already fused with this body, my consciousness and his have combined, we are one person now, I am no longer just a Divine Worm, unless you infect my consciousness, you have no hope of devouring me until death," Yahola said.

"Heh, is that your choice? To live in symbiosis with such an incomprehensible creature? To give up becoming a god?" the giant Divine Worm laughed mockingly.

"Becoming a god? I admit, that imprint deep in our consciousness is always calling me, always making me want to abandon this body. But unfortunately, compared to that elusive divinity, I prefer these tangible things! Money! Power! They intoxicate me much more than so-called divinity," Yahola said.

"Hahaha, foolish one! Fine, fine, it’s better if you don’t want to become a god, I have one less competitor. But you think after locking me up for so long, I would just let you go?"

The Divine Worm erupted with Divine Power, enveloping Yahola.

"Don’t waste your effort, since I dared to let you out, I of course have my ways to deal with you. It’s you who should be worried, without a host, your consumption is quite alarming," Yahola said, completely unmoved as if the pressure of the Divine Power around him didn’t exist.

The Divine Worm’s fluctuation slightly trembled, as if contemplating. Then, the Divine Power enveloping Yahola dissipated, and the giant red fluctuation suddenly rushed toward Mahal, who was curled up on the ground. In the blink of an eye, Mahal’s fragile consciousness was overtaken.

At that moment, Yahola suddenly moved; he took a scroll from his private space, tore it open, and space was ripped apart. Yahola disappeared on the spot, immediately appearing in his high-speed hovercraft.

Indeed, everything he did was in preparation for this moment. In reality, Yahola had no way to deal with the Divine Worm he had just released. However, relatively speaking, the Divine Worm didn’t know this because it had been locked up for far too long.

Originally, like all other Divine Worms, Yahola had dreamt of continuously devouring his kind to grow ever stronger, eventually becoming a perfect True God. He was lucky to receive a large Eternal form created by a Giant, and whenever he acquired a small Eternal form, he would throw it inside the giant one. Using his pirate connections, he managed to obtain quite a few Eternal forms, but then he suddenly changed his mind—he didn’t want to become a god anymore.

Thus, those Divine Worms thrown into the Eternal form silently devoured each other, eventually becoming a new, large Divine Worm. Now, Yahola had released it, with only one purpose in mind—to help him get rid of Mahal. Obviously, the Divine Worm, eager to find a host, had no choice but Mahal right then.

Yahola piloted his small spacecraft quickly away from his fleet and then tore through space, disappearing without a trace.

Meanwhile, Mahal stood up with his eyes flashing red light.

"Hehehe, although it’s a bit ugly, this body is so powerful! Hahaha! Yahola, Yahola, you’ve finally done something good! As a reward, let me kill you!"

Mahal laughed wildly, about to turn and rush out, but a hand pressed against his forehead.

This hand belonged to Long Yi.

"Hold on, let’s talk first."

Long Yi had always felt that letting Mahal fight on his own was not a good idea, so he had been secretly monitoring the entire fight. However, Yahola was a Divine Worm after all; in terms of cunning and tactics, Mahal was definitely no match.

And now, it seemed his concerns were justified; Yahola still had such a backup plan!

"Impudence! Do you know who I am!" Mahal, now inhabited by the Divine Worm, bellowed trying to blast Long Yi away. But then Long Yi directly displayed his Divine Status and Divine Power, saying, "I don’t know who you are, but do you know who I am?"

The Divine Worm never expected that right after being released, it would encounter a True God! Was this True God a helper of Mahal? No! That couldn’t be possible! Yahola had just fled when he parasitized Mahal. If this were Yahola’s helper, he definitely wouldn’t have just run away like that! Since it wasn’t Yahola’s helper, things would be easier!

"So it’s the True God! True God! I am a God Chaser! A humble follower chasing the footsteps of the divine!"

The Divine Worm immediately summoned the false memories imprinted in its consciousness, ready to undergo any scrutiny from the other party. It was confident in its abilities, believing that even a god would not be able to see through its false memories!

But Long Yi didn’t probe his memories and instead asked directly, "Were you just awakened?"

"Yes, True God! Your most loyal servant has just awakened! Waking up to meet the True God is the glory of my lifetime!" the Divine Worm continued to praise.

"How much do you know about Yahola?" Long Yi asked again.

This question instantly brightened the heart of the Divine Worm. Since Long Yi was asking about Yahola, it was clear that the True God before him was hunting Yahola!

"True God! Are you also hunting Yahola? If so, I can offer my assistance! I presume it’s because Yahola has completely merged with the host, making it impossible for you, True God, to subdue him directly with your divine status! But if you hand him over to me, I can quickly capture him for you!" the Divine Worm shouted.

"Hmm, so that’s how it is," Long Yi nodded.

For a long time, Long Yi had felt that although Yahola was the Divine Worm, he seemed somewhat different from the other Divine Worms he had encountered. Now, he understood that the Divine Worm had fused with Yahola completely, indistinguishable from each other. This meant that the Divine Worm at this moment should possess a certain degree of humanity.

"Please let me fight for you!" the Divine Worm, thinking it had deceived Long Yi, said eagerly. However, it was also making another plan: to parasitize Long Yi!

Although it didn’t know who Long Yi was, merely being a Trinity True God was enough to make any Divine Worm drool with envy! Once it parasitized this True God, it believed that no other of its kind in this Plane would be a match for it! By then, it would devour all the Divine Worms in this Plane, then the Lower Plane, and finally the Upper Plane. Once it devoured all the fragments of the Divine Worm, it would become the true Complete Form! It would then break through to the Divine Realm and return to its true master’s side to relish in true glory!

Boom!

As the Divine Worm was indulging in its dreams, suddenly, a golden thunderbolt enveloped Mahal completely.

"This is... God Eater? You are a Giant!"

The Divine Worm roared, still clueless about what was happening as the thunderbolt appeared suddenly!

"Unfortunately, I have no plans to spare creatures like you," Long Yi said with a smile.

"Please don’t consume me! I will truly be loyal to you! Really!" the Divine Worm struggled in desperation.

"I don’t believe it." This wasn’t the first encounter with a Divine Worm, nor would it be the last; these cunning lives were utterly untrustworthy.

Gluttonous snakes surged from all directions, tearing the Divine Worm apart, consuming it along with its Divine Soul, divine status, and divine consciousness, leaving nothing behind. As the gluttonous snakes returned, Long Yi felt his divine soul and divine status growing stronger. Subtly, he seemed to develop a sense of disregard for life. He shook his head, allowing this fleeting feeling to fade from his mind. Then he bent down to help Mahal up, but he stopped halfway through the motion.

Why should I care? He’s just a creation of mine, weak and powerless. I can certainly create a more perfect combat creature to replace him.

Long Yi thought to himself.

Then, sweat broke out on his back.

Damn it!

Long Yi fiercely punched his forehead, making his vision darken slightly, but also dispelling that strange feeling completely.

No, this can’t continue; it could lead to terrible outcomes!

Long Yi didn’t bother with Mahal and turned to leave swiftly, even using his divine power to speed up.

Arriving at a desolate planet with no one around, Long Yi directly dug into the ground and burrowed into the planet’s core. It was a hollow planet, utterly silent inside.

Afterward, Long Yi began to meditate there.
