All Things Are Contracts

Chapter 250: Dont Binge Eat

Although Lulu the sand worm had become stronger than the Sand Dune King after two instances of devouring, he was struggling against the combined forces of Yunyao and Zhanyue, especially with Yunyao’s noticeably fiercer attacks.

However, just as Lulu underestimated Zhanyue, Zhanyue’s eyes brightened. For the first time in actual combat, he used his Eyes of Greed, imposing the emotion of fear on Lulu. He hadn’t fully refined the eyes he obtained from the disaster beast earlier.

Soon, Lulu became uneasy, sweating profusely, feeling as if he was about to be killed at any moment, and no longer wanting to continue the fight.

“Your eye technique is not bad,” Yunyao said, naturally sensing Lulu’s change. Then her eyes turned golden, activating the Eyes of Dominion.

In Lulu’s eyes, Yunyao’s figure became immensely large and divine, as if she were a ruler dominating the world, while he was merely an ant. He almost couldn’t resist the urge to kneel.

“Ahhhhh!” Lulu hurriedly closed his eyes, not daring to look at either Zhanyue or Yunyao. He fled to another battlefield, needing to muddy the waters. At least the three Desert Snake People should also attack Zhanyue and Yunyao, which would reduce the pressure on him.

“It’s a pity. My Eyes of Dominion still can’t completely influence it,” Yunyao said with some regret.

“If your eye technique reaches the highest level, will people have to kneel and sing ‘Conquest’ just by looking at you?” Zhanyue couldn’t help but joke. Fortunately, he also had a strong eye technique to resist Yunyao’s.

The two chatted while pursuing Lulu, finding this battle much easier.

Soon, Lulu despaired, realizing that the three Desert Snake People weren’t attacking Zhanyue and Yunyao at all.

“Why?” Lulu couldn’t understand. They were all uninvited guests in the tomb, so why the different treatment?

However, Zhanyue understood clearly. Perhaps it was because he and Yunyao looked like celestial beings?

“If that’s the case, I have no choice!” Lulu waved the scepter, sending all the disaster beasts towards Zhanyue and Yunyao, while he himself faced the three Desert Snake People.

Although Zhanyue and Yunyao couldn’t destroy the disaster beasts, it wasn’t difficult to shake off their harassment. They soon broke through the beast swarm, only to witness another unforgettable scene.

Lulu had split into three, each embracing a Desert Snake Person, with sharp appendages piercing their necks, absorbing their power and flesh.

“It had another trick up its sleeve?” Zhanyue was speechless. How many backup plans and hidden abilities did this worm have? What was this avatar talent?

Soon after, the three Desert Snake People fell silent, leaving only their skins on the ground.

“The tomb’s guardians aren’t very effective,” Zhanyue commented. Now, they were once again facing two opponents.

Feeling the power flowing within, the reunified Lulu stretched his shoulders, revealing a look of enjoyment. After this absorption, he had grown stronger once again.

“Let’s end this here. We can’t let it keep getting stronger, or there’ll come a day when we can’t handle it,” Yunyao said seriously, getting serious.

“Alright, I’ll leave it to you. I’ll keep the disaster beasts occupied,” Zhanyue agreed.

With clear division of labor, Zhanyue engaged the disaster beasts again. His Three Talents Wondrous Fire repeatedly annihilated the fish swarm, only to see them revive again and again. The disaster beasts were immortal and indestructible; Zhanyue had no choice but to keep them occupied. This time, he went all out, even summoning his Ghost Shark avatar. The avatar held the River Condensing Pearl in its left hand and the Thunder God’s Whip in its right, displaying formidable combat power.

While fighting, Zhanyue kept an eye on the other battlefield. Yunyao’s aura was rapidly rising. Finally, a phantom appeared behind her – the Heavenly Emperor’s Law Body. The enormous figure was a woman, also with wings spread, her eyes filled with supreme arrogance, seeming to look down upon everything.

“Eyes of Dominion!” Yunyao activated her eye technique again. This time, without fail, Lulu felt immense pressure on both mind and body, falling to his knees without any will to resist.

“Die!” A golden sword energy pierced Lulu’s chest, green blood flowing from his body. However, the pain also brought him back to his senses.

“No!” He couldn’t accept it. After devouring so many powerful beings, he was still no match for this woman?

“Escape!” He charged towards the stone door, but how could Yunyao let him succeed? Her sword left her hand, directly pinning him to the stone door, unable to break free.

“Be careful, you’ve fallen for his trap,” Zhanyue warned.

The Lulu pinned to the stone door turned to smoke, while Lulu’s true body used earth-burrowing technique to head towards the statue. His target was still the Life-Nurturing Soil.

Soon, all the disaster beasts stopped attacking actively, instead forming a barrier to protect Lulu behind them.

The soil on the plate held by the statue wasn’t ordinary soil. It looked more like a piece of rotten flesh or a living mass.

“Life-Nurturing Soil! It should also be considered a kind of living being! Once I absorb its power, I don’t believe I still can’t defeat you!” Lulu said, his mouth opening to reveal sharp spikes that pierced into the Life-Nurturing Soil.

Zhanyue and Yunyao could only sense terrifying power flowing into Lulu’s body, his strength rapidly expanding.

“Not good, it’s evolving again!” The two charged forward, but the fearless disaster beasts blocked them, preventing them from breaking through instantly.

“Let me,” Yunyao tried her spatial technique again, attempting to swap positions with Lulu, but failed.

“It’s not working. The space around the Life-Nurturing Soil is extremely solid. I can’t control it,” Yunyao shook her head. Could the energy emitted by the Life-Nurturing Soil solidify space?

“Not enough, not enough, so good! Power! So good!” Lulu, feeling the vast power within the Life-Nurturing Soil, couldn’t stop. He greedily seized its power.

“What do we do?” Yunyao looked at Zhanyue beside her. Lulu’s aura was already becoming troublesome for her.

“Wait, something’s not right,” Zhanyue stopped Yunyao, who was about to charge forward again.

Yunyao looked and realized, no longer advancing.

“Has it gone mad? It’s still devouring,” The two watched Lulu’s body continually expand, their eyes widening.

“Hahaha, so good, my power, this is all my power!” Lulu continued to devour, seemingly unaware that his body had reached its limit. “More, more, power, this is the power I’ve longed for.”

The two just watched, doing nothing. After a long time, Lulu finally realized, “No, no, too much, I’ve eaten too much…” However, at this moment, the scepter in his hand once again spoke in his mind, “Not enough, not yet enough, continue. Absorb the Life-Nurturing Soil, and you will be on par with the gods.”

“Gods, yes, I am to become a god.” Lulu continued to absorb this hard-won power, until his entire body was like a balloon.

“Run!” Zhanyue pulled Yunyao beside him, and they dashed out at extreme speed, closing the stone door behind them.

Soon, a terrible explosion came from within the burial chamber. The two stone doors couldn’t withstand it and were blown away.

After a long time, the dust settled. The burial chamber remained, protected again by the formation.

“Is that worm dead?” Yunyao couldn’t believe the sand worm had eaten itself to death.

“If I’m not mistaken, this disaster beast is called ‘Greed’, and its death isn’t unjustified. We’ve been mistaken about one thing all along. We thought they controlled the disaster beast, but in reality, whether it was the Sand Dune King’s pursuit of fame or Lulu’s pursuit of power, it was all endless greed awakened by the disaster beast. A seed instantly became a great tree. We underestimated the disaster beast’s power,” Zhanyue sighed.

“I see,” Yunyao nodded, and they walked in again.
