140: Chapter 140 Billions of Monsters

On the other side, within the Tianxing Mountains.

A massive giant bull, over five meters tall and weighing dozens of tons, collapsed before Xu Buling.

A black iron sword was still embedded in the giant bull's eye socket.

The iron sword was continuously absorbing blood from the giant bull's body, and the giant bull's physique was shrinking at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Before long, all that remained of the giant bull's body was a pile of bones and fur.

Xu Buling set fire to these bones and fur, clearing away all traces.

If others found out he possessed such a demonic sword, it would surely invite endless trouble, so he had to be cautious in his actions.

"Kid, the next one. There is a Spiked Copper Pig fifty miles to the northwest. Go kill it!"

The impatient voice of the Life-Devouring Sword rang out in Xu Buling's mind.

"Shut up. You've already absorbed over three hundred Yao Beasts during this time. Haven't you had enough yet?"

Xu Buling cursed angrily. Over the past month, he had either been battling Yao Beasts or on the way to battle them.

He had barely any time to rest, which made him very dissatisfied!

"Hmph, even if billions more Yao Beasts like these came along, it wouldn't be enough for me to absorb! We've barely even started."

The Life-Devouring Sword snorted coldly. A few hundred Yao Beasts sounded like a large number, but these Yao Beasts were at a pitifully low Realm, and the energy within their bodies was equally scarce.

To help it recover, this amount of energy didn't even count as a drop in the bucket.

"What? Billions?"

Xu Buling was so startled by these words that he jumped up. Billions of Yao Beasts weren't enough for it to absorb?

The energy it needed to recover actually required that much?

Billions of Yao Beasts would be enough to plow through the entire Hundred Kingdoms Territory a thousand times over.

Was that even something he could kill?

Even if he could kill them, would he dare to do so?

Unless he didn't want to live anymore. Did it really think there were no experts among the Yao Beasts?

"You might as well just kill me. Killing billions of Yao Beasts is simply impossible!" Xu Buling roared.

"It's not asking you to kill that many right now. Just wait until your strength increases and I have recovered. Moreover, the higher the Realm and strength of the Yao Beast, the more energy it contains. If it were a Saint-level Yao Beast, a hundred of them would be enough for me to recover."

The Life-Devouring Sword, seeing that Xu Buling was on the verge of a breakdown, quickly consoled him.

Upon hearing this, Xu Buling nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood. Look at that, was that even human language?

A hundred Saint-level Yao Beasts—did it really think they were Chinese cabbage, available in whatever quantity one wanted?

Yao Beasts of that level could blow him to death with a single breath, yet it wanted him to kill them?

It was truly wishful thinking; it would be easier to slaughter billions of ordinary Yao Beasts.

"..."

Xu Buling stared at the Life-Devouring Sword, speechless for a long time; he didn't really want to bother with this sword anymore.

Although its function was truly Heaven-Defying, allowing him to break through two levels in just a month to reach the ninth stage of the Innate Realm.

However, the side effects were also very obvious. His eyes were now filled with slaughter, his entire body was shrouded in a kind of Evil Qi, and he wanted to slash at anyone he saw.

If this continued, it wouldn't be long before he would certainly suffer from Qi Deviation.

Therefore, no matter what, he had to pause. As long as the Evil Qi on his body had not dissipated, it was not advisable to continue slaughtering wantonly.

Inside the Jing Wang Residence.

Jing Wang Consort Duānmù Fèngdié was sitting in a pavilion in the back garden, pouring tea elegantly.

Before her sat a beautiful woman who resembled her by seven or eight parts, with looks and temperament that faintly surpassed her by a sliver.
