7: Desolate land!

Chu Tian and Zheng Lun were also stunned, not understanding what was wrong with the kid.

He was clearly setting a trap for him, but not only did the kid not resist, he even looked righteous, like a warrior sacrificing himself for a noble cause.

But since his goal had been achieved, Chu Tian didn't dwell on it too much.

Originally, he had wanted to use his background to force Ye Chen to accept punishment, but he didn't expect him to jump into it himself, which saved him the trouble.

Thinking of this, Chu Tian urged:

"There's no time to lose. It's better to send Ye Chen to the Barren Domain as soon as possible, so as not to affect student Ye Chen's development."

Ye Chen also affirmed after hearing this:

"Director Wu, let's go now. Otherwise, it will always be a thorn in my side."

Director Wu patted Ye Chen's shoulder after hearing this, and said with relief:

"It's good that you have this realization. Follow me."

With that, he motioned for Ye Chen to follow.

Ye Chen quickly followed. When he passed by Chu Tian, he even showed a grateful expression.

This made Chu Tian even more confused.

Is this kid... really out of his mind?

Following Director Wu, he walked into the core area of the school and entered one of the buildings.

The layout inside the building was very novel, with thousands of stars covering the walls and ceiling. Standing inside the house felt like being in a sea of stars.

Director Wu solemnly warned:

"The Barren Domain has a strong negative aura. Although you are a God Lord, you cannot stay there for too long."

"With your divine creature physique, you can only stay inside for a maximum of one hour, otherwise you will be affected by the negative aura."

"Take this conch. Once you confirm that all the Worms are dead, tell me through the conch, and I will pull you back in time."

With that, he took out two identical large conches and handed one of them to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen nodded after taking it, indicating that he understood.

Director Wu instructed Ye Chen to stand on the platform in the center of the room, and then activated the teleportation array.

A flash of light passed, and Ye Chen's figure disappeared from the room.

...

Barren Domain

A faint light flashed in the dim world, and Ye Chen's figure suddenly appeared.

Looking around, everything was chaotic and barren, with nothing but the ground and some rocks.

Obviously, the Barren Domain was not suitable for the survival of various animals and plants.

Ye Chen tried to feel the surrounding aura, but felt nothing except a slight chill in his body.

At this moment, the Abyss Will seemed to sense the smell of a feast and became very active.

Controlling the Abyss Will to absorb the surrounding negative aura with all its might, the Abyss Will received the order and immediately went full throttle.

Ye Chen only felt that every pore on his body was slowly opening, absorbing the surrounding cold air.

This made him shiver involuntarily.

But for a better future, he still endured the cold.

He even took deep breaths regularly through his mouth and nose to absorb more.

At the same time, he kept running, which could both activate his body for warmth and prevent the negative aura around him from becoming thin due to absorption, affecting the absorption efficiency.

At this time, his Divine Domain also had some changes.

The negative aura autonomously invaded his Divine Domain, attempting to pollute it.

Gradually, the Divine Domain was also filled with a large amount of negative aura.

Some Abyssal Worms also underwent some changes after absorbing these auras.

These negative auras seemed to have no harm to them, but instead strengthened their bodies.

The Worms felt the benefits brought by the negative aura, and even more actively relaxed their bodies and minds to absorb it.

The Worms that were competing for the championship were infected by the negative aura and bit even more fiercely.

Gluttony absorbed the most, stuffing any energy into its body.

And its body change was also the biggest. Its original body, over seven meters long, began to develop horizontally, gradually becoming bloated and obese.

The wide mouthparts occupied most of its face, and its head even grew dense, crystalline compound eyes. Innumerable eyes rotated simultaneously, emitting a scarlet glow, revealing greed and bloodlust.

An intense hunger filled Gluttony's heart, almost drowning it.

The instinct to feed forced it to set its sights on the other Worms.

Driven by instinct, Gluttony transformed into a dark red lightning bolt, plunging into the group of Worms vying for the championship.

The Worms, who were in the midst of a fierce battle, were like being run over by a tank, all sent flying.

And Gluttony opened its terrifying maw and directly swallowed a Worm whole.

One by one, Worms died in Gluttony's mouth, becoming its food.

Soon, this battlefield was left with only Gluttony, still in hunger.

At this time, the Abyss Will was fully absorbing the negative aura and did not refresh the Worms in time.

Extremely hungry, Gluttony set its sights on the champion group again.

The champions, who were originally leisurely digesting their food, watched Gluttony wreak havoc, devouring hundreds of Worms, and were still lamenting.

As expected of the boss, not only is he powerful, but his appetite and digestion are also so strong.

Soon, they realized something was wrong. Why was the boss staring at them?

Before they could react, Gluttony once again transformed into a dark red lightning bolt and rushed over.

Don't look at Gluttony's body becoming bloated now, like a red caterpillar.

But its speed did not slow down at all; instead, it became a few points faster.

It fiercely plunged into the champion team, its sharp carapace edges turning into sawteeth, cutting the Worms along the way.

The champion Worms did not dare to confront it head-on and scattered, fleeing underground.

It's just that their speed could not compare to Gluttony's.

It was fiercely abnormal, swallowing one "fry" after another like a big fish eating small fish.

With continuous feeding, Gluttony's size also grew larger and larger, and the aura on its body became stronger and stronger.

After devouring an unknown number of champions, its body length finally settled at ten meters.

Only then did the deadly hunger subside, and its rationality gradually returned.

But the abnormal movement on its body did not stop. Some honeycomb-like holes appeared on the surface of its body, and some larvae were still wriggling inside the holes.

And its level finally broke through to the Transcendent rank!

At this time, Ye Chen, who was still running, finally felt the abnormality in his Divine Domain.

His mind sank into it, and he was attracted by the greatly changed image of Gluttony in the center of the Divine Domain.

As for the champion Worms hiding underground and trembling, Ye Chen did not pay attention to them.

He carefully examined Gluttony in front of him. If it weren't for the Abyss Will's confirmation, he wouldn't dare to confirm Gluttony's identity.

Looking at the dense holes and wriggling maggots on its body, Ye Chen only felt goosebumps rise.

What kind of unspeakable thing is this? Just one look can cause Sanity to drop wildly.

He forced himself to endure the palpitations and observed the larvae. They were like swimming in a petri dish, constantly feeding on the "nutrient solution" inside the holes.

And their size was also growing at a visible speed.

He tried to check their attributes, and unexpectedly, he could indeed check them:

["Name"]: Parasitic Fly Larva (Tier 2)

["Level"]: Elite Creature (One Star)

["Talent"]: Symbiosis, Back-feeding

["Status"]: Growing

...

Looking at the attributes of these inconspicuous maggots, Ye Chen's pupils suddenly constricted.

These inconspicuous little things are Tier 2 elite creatures?!

One tier higher than the champion Worms he cultivated!

Then Gluttony must be...

Thinking of this, Ye Chen locked his gaze on Gluttony again.
