Chapter 740 - 370 Solar Sacred Judgment and Shield Strike Charge _1
With the Rat King and the Luminous Unicorn King both returning to their contract spaces, the contest seemed to revert back to its initial state, as if it had just begun. However, all the spectators understood that the battle was not just starting up. The balance of victory and defeat had already tilted.
Shi Zeyu was gasping slightly after the rapid burst of movements. He lowered his head to look at the Holy Abyss’s Diversion lying on his body. He opened his mouth as if wanting to say something, but eventually, he stayed silent. After all, without Long Kongkong’s timely intervention, he might not have been able to stop the giant rodent’s bite. If the Luminous Unicorn King had really been killed, he would have been done for. It would be impossible for him to contract another mount like this.
Let alone, the other side had given up on a mount that clearly held the advantage and was very beneficial to them. Although he didn’t understand why the giant rodent was so powerful, at least it showed such high morals and integrity.
Indeed, Long Kongkong himself didn’t understand why the Luminous Unicorn King was so weak, instantly dealt with by the Rat King and nearly eaten. He was certain that the Rat King was not 9th Rank, at most an 8th Rank, slightly stronger than himself.
How would he know that the Rat King, as a Sky Devouring Rodent, once swallowed up all living creatures of a plane, wasn’t that simple.
After reluctantly signing the blood pact with Long Kongkong, the Rat King had tried many times to break free and control Long Kongkong in return, but all attempts had failed. It planned to resign to its fate.
However, as Long Kongkong’s power increased, it discovered some peculiarities. That was Long Kongkong’s ability. Whether it was cultivation or in battle, Long Kongkong would devour a large amount of spiritual power through his Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace and filter it. But he himself couldn’t absorb much. During cultivation, he had to distribute it to his allies, but during battle, most of it would disperse after use. As a Sky Devouring Rodent, the Rat King didn’t just devour creatures. Devouring creatures was also to absorb energy!
It certainly wouldn’t miss such a great opportunity. It took advantage of Long Kongkong’s cultivation and battle times to continuously absorb the excess energy to its body. Because it didn’t affect Long Kongkong, Long Kongkong himself didn’t discover the undercurrents.
