Chapter 831 - 416: The Blind Date is Starting
Long Dangdang’s command to Little Evil was to absorb as much as possible during the next four hours and then return to the contract space to digest slowly. This was the most time-efficient method.
Seeing so many Grade A Soul Stones, even Little Evil’s pupils dilated a bit, feeling genuinely like a rat that had fallen into a rice barrel, and it started to absorb with all its might without hesitation. For a magical beast, enhancing its level is a natural pursuit and instinct.
Long Dangdang kept controlling the Earth escape shuttle, moving towards the outskirts of the city through the deep underground. About an hour later, he felt that they should have left Calamity City. If they were to burrow upwards now, they could probably emerge outside the city. Of course, he wouldn’t do that. This tunnel was created for the possibility of needing to leave quickly later on. Leaving from underground was the safest way, and then to find a place to activate teleportation. The further they were from Calamity City at that time, the safer the teleportation would be.
With the preliminary work done, he turned the Earth escape shuttle back. He was also monitoring Little Evil because after quickly absorbing a large amount of energy from the soul stones, Little Evil had swelled up a bit, and even around its pupils, some faint blue rune lines appeared, looking like bloodshot human eyes. Clearly, after this period of devouring, it was beginning to overload. But Little Evil showed no signs of stopping and continued to absorb frantically.
In just more than one hour, it had already absorbed over a dozen Grade A Soul Stones. Digestion definitely required some time, but it couldn’t care less, afraid of missing the chance.
Only after fully absorbing twenty-five Grade A Soul Stones, both Little Evil’s eyeballs and body swelled up almost to the point of bursting, its tentacles all tensed and filling the space within the Earth escape shuttle, did it reluctantly stop. Long Dangdang then sent it back to the contract space for digestion and absorption.
Although Little Evil had not yet reached the 8th Rank, perhaps because it had devoured too much at once, Long Dangdang could feel some spiritual power overflowing and being absorbed by him.
Long Dangdang returned to the surface and to his residence, satisfied with today’s results. Little Evil had begun to rapidly enhance its power. When its spiritual power reached the 8th Rank and could officially nourish him back, both he and Little Eight could benefit from it, and Little Evil, catching up with Little Eight, would officially become his strong support. Unfortunately, they were not in Holy City, without his brother around. Otherwise, even though he had greatly enhanced his cultivation earlier, he might have been able to enhance it further, and it wouldn’t take long before touching the 8th Rank was possible.
Thus, he settled down in Calamity City, and the days passed quietly for seven continuous days. Meanwhile, Stone Gate City had distributed two more Grade A Soul Stones to each undead, as cultivation resources and possibly as an advance investment for a potential future Prince Consort.
