The grass in the factory should be plucked

"Tai Xu, be careful!" Xie Chang'an shouted sharply.

A black shadow as large as a small mountain suddenly appeared before them, and an overwhelming pressure swept over them. Xie Chang'an couldn't help but feel apprehensive, for this was also a giant beast with the cultivation of a Nascent Soul cultivator!

The void emitted a dazzling sword light, slicing through the chaos and colliding with the giant beast, producing a loud "clang".

Jiang Li, who was in a small space, was almost thrown off her chair and onto the ground by the impact.

She staggered to her feet, then asked in surprise, "Brother Chang'an, what happened?"

Xie Chang'an had no time to answer her. He was fighting with Taixu against the huge black shadow. The bright sword light was sharp and fierce, splitting the chaotic void with silvery cracks.

The dark figure had a round head and a body as black as ink. Its massive, mountain-like body was surprisingly agile, moving so fast that it left only afterimages. One moment it was roaring under the sword light, and the next it turned into wisps of black mist and disappeared without a trace.

Xie Chang'an felt a chill run down his spine. This giant beast was even more adept at traversing the void than Taixu!

His divine sense transformed into a sword, spreading out in sync with the clear light of the Taixu Sword. Man and sword were of one mind and connected by their energy. The bright sword light wove an impenetrable defensive net to prevent the giant beast from launching a sneak attack.

Only then did he have time to communicate with Jiang Li telepathically: "Little Tanuki, we may have encountered a Void Beast!"

Jiang Li was startled: "A Void Beast?"

As a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, she had naturally heard of this ancient mythical beast.

Void Beasts are born in special environments such as void turbulence and chaotic boundaries. Their bodies can switch between physical and ethereal forms, and they are born with the ability to tear and traverse the void.

Jiang Li was very excited. This kind of legendary beast was extremely rare, and she never expected to encounter it today!

Xie Chang'an suddenly felt the space to his left tremble, and the giant shadow reappeared. Its thick, fat claws slammed down. Tai Xu spun around and held his sword horizontally. With a loud "clang," the sword hummed, and the sword light almost dissipated.

Taking advantage of the momentum, Xie Chang'an leaped into the air, his sword light condensing into a cold star, piercing straight at the giant shadow's body.

Caught off guard, the giant shadow was stabbed by the cold sword light. The chill penetrated to the bone, and it cried out in pain, the deafening cry making Xie Chang'an's ears ring.

The giant beast, in pain, paused its attack, allowing Xie Chang'an to finally see what it looked like.

On its round head were two small, bright black eyes the size of mung beans. Its gaping maw revealed two rows of fine, sharp teeth. Although it cried loudly, it didn't shed a single tear; instead, a few drops of glistening saliva occasionally dripped from the corners of its mouth.

Looking at its limbs, it is short and stout, with round and thick claws, and has the clumsiness unique to young animals. Although its body is as big as a small mountain, it is clearly still a cub!

The void cub emitted a loud buzzing sound, seemingly filled with endless grievance. Xie Chang'an vaguely understood a few words, "...empty...hungry..."

He sobbed as he stared at Taixu, drooling, preparing to launch his next attack.

Taixu felt a chill run down his spine; this void cub clearly wanted to eat him!

"Run! Run!"

He unleashed a dazzling sword light, carrying Xie Chang'an as they fled at breakneck speed.

"Don't run...KongKong is hungry..."

The Void Cub grew anxious; it couldn't let its delicious meal escape when it was almost within its grasp!

As expected, the Demon Emperor hadn't lied to him. This Void Meteorite had come to life, and it smelled wonderful. It must taste delicious!

He stopped crying, opened his mouth wide, and chased after it, determined to swallow the fragrant "snack" whole!

Xie Chang'an shouted, "Taixu, let's go outside first!"

Void Beasts live in the void, so they shouldn't be able to be chased outside, right?

Taixu cried out in despair, "We can't get out! The passage seems to be blocked!"

Xie Chang'an was shocked. So the Void Beast also had the ability to lock the void?

The surrounding void is firmly locked, preventing the opponent from breaking through the void and escaping!

"Awoo—"

At this moment, Kongkong accelerated and caught up, opening its blood-red maw, about to swallow Taixu whole!

Taixu made a sharp turn, narrowly missing his mouth, and then turned and ran away.

And so, one chased, the other fled, drawing strange arcs in the void.

Xie Chang'an was secretly anxious. If they continued to be entangled by this void beast, which had the ability to lock the void, he, Xiao Li Nu, and Tai Xu would be trapped and die in this void!

"Little Tanuki, do you know what weaknesses the Void Beasts have?"

Jiang Li frowned, her mind racing, as she tried to recall as many records about the Void Beast as possible from the sect's ancient texts.

She shook her head: "Very few people have ever seen a Void Beast, so there are very few records about this strange beast. Who would know its weakness?"

"All we know is that he feeds on minerals and spiritual objects from the void, but he doesn't eat people."

Xie Chang'an suddenly realized why the Void Cub was chasing after Taixu. The Taixu Sword's original form was Void Meteorite Iron, which was already on the Void Beast's diet. With the Taixu Sword now possessing a spirit, it was an unparalleled delicacy and a highly nutritious food in the eyes of this cub!

Jiang Li said, "Brother Chang'an, could you let Taixu release my voice and aura?"

She wanted to test whether the Immaculate Spirit Body would be effective against the Void Beast.

Xie Chang'an thought for a moment, "I will protect you with my divine sense, and then have Taixu open a crack in the small space."

“But,” he paused, “I can only hold on for fifteen minutes.”

He only had the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul stage, and even if he used his divine sense to block the void turbulence for her, he could only hold on for a quarter of an hour at most.

Jiang Li nodded emphatically: "Fifteen minutes is enough."

That was enough for her to test whether the Void Beasts were immune to the Immaculate Spirits.

At this moment, Kongkong accelerated again and actually bit the hilt of the Taixu Sword!

He was overjoyed, and his little sharp teeth were about to bite down hard when he heard a very pleasant voice in his mind, "Baby, you're hurt, does it hurt?"

Kong Kong was taken aback, then felt a pure and flawless aura that made him feel an irresistible urge to get close to it.

Kongkong pouted. When he was chasing Taixu Sword, he was cut by the cold and sharp sword light, leaving countless small wounds. Hearing the voice gently calling him "Baby" and asking if he was in pain, he couldn't help but feel a surge of grievance. He let go of the sword hilt and burst into tears again.

"Ouch...it hurts so much...I'm so hungry..."

Jiang Li was overjoyed; there was hope!

She coaxed softly, "Your name is Kongkong, right? Don't cry, Kongkong. I have some sweet spiritual dew here. Would you like to try some?"

Kongkong tilted her head, "Sweet spiritual dew, what does this taste like? It sounds delicious?"

He stopped crying and sobbed, "Okay, then try it."

Xie Chang'an was a little puzzled. What sweet spiritual dew?

Jiang Li filled a bucket with water from the spirit lake, poured in a large jar of spirit honey, and stirred it well.

Xie Chang'an unconsciously smiled slightly; this was indeed sweet spiritual dew.

Jiang Li added, "If I can't get out, ask Brother Taixu to hand you this sword. Don't bite him!"

Kongkong nodded vigorously, her eyes filled with longing, "Yes, Kongkong won't bite him!"

Taixu glared at him: "Open your mouth."

Kongkong, completely unsuspecting, obediently opened his mouth wide and exclaimed, "Ah—!"

Xie Chang'an sighed, only a pure and immaculate spirit could earn the complete trust of such a ferocious creature.

With a "splash," Kong Kong felt a liquid being poured into his mouth, a sweet taste he had never experienced before!
