Ginseng looked at the demonic rooster, speechless.
Brother Chicken was truly shameless.
As expected, none of his followers were simple.
He desperately wanted to grab the demonic rooster's neck with his tendrils and yell, "Have some shame, please, I beg you, have some shame!"
Lower life forms felt an instinctive repulsion when approaching beings with higher bloodline power.
The demonic rooster approaching the Planet Devouring Crocodile was like a lump of excrement drawing near.
Suddenly, the Planet Devouring Crocodile opened its mouth, preparing to unleash a devastating breath attack at close range, annihilating these insignificant ants before him.
He had come for revenge, not to be trifled with by these creatures.
"Hmm?" Lin Fan sensed a sharp killing intent from the Planet Devouring Crocodile.
"What are you trying to do?" he asked slowly.
The enraged Planet Devouring Crocodile's brain was perhaps a bit out of control. As Lin Fan questioned his intentions, a coolness surged into his head, instantly lowering his fiery temper.
Rumble!
The Planet Devouring Crocodile retreated explosively, looking at Lin Fan with apprehension. That guy seemed small, yet gave him a dangerous feeling. If he had attacked just now, he would definitely have died.
Roar!
Then, without looking back, he propelled his massive body, crashing and smashing, towards the depths of the universe. Perhaps too panicked, some planets were affected, directly shattered, others deviated from their orbits, flying into the cosmic abyss.
"Hey..." Lin Fan still wanted to have a good chat with the crocodile. How could he have expected him to run so fast? It was a pity. He wanted to ask what he ate to grow so strong.
The descendants of the great starry sky races were dumbfounded. He just left?
They were all prepared to watch the Planet Devouring Crocodile display its might, but they didn't expect it to even fart. It just roared a few times and ended, then scurried away in disgrace.
Little Rulai remained silent for a long time, then sighed, "The rumors about the Planet Devouring Crocodile are false. Legend says it has a violent temper and the ability to destroy galaxies, but unexpectedly, it ran away."
"No... not false at all. The Planet Devouring Crocodile does have the ability to destroy galaxies, but its brain isn't damaged. Its perception of danger is stronger than ours. It seems it sensed danger from Lin Fan." The Dragon God explained. He didn't think the Planet Devouring Crocodile was weak, but rather very powerful. Many of the desolate starfields were scenes caused by the Planet Devouring Crocodile passing through.
In terms of destructive power, few creatures could compare with the Planet Devouring Crocodile.
Little Rulai said, "Since this benefactor Lin is so powerful, why not invite him to enter the Starry Sky Forbidden Zone with us?"
"It's too early. Neither of us is ready. If we don't have a suitable Celestial Sacred Weapon to protect ourselves, going in is just suicide." The Dragon God glanced at Little Rulai. Such wishful thinking. Having cultivated to this level, did he still not know the horrors of the Starry Sky Forbidden Zone?
Countless accomplished seniors had died inside.
Their spirit of going one after another was commendable.
But without proper preparation, it was completely suicidal.
Their generation wasn't as crazy as the people of ancient times. Those strong individuals pursued the truth and were willing to pay with their lives without regret.
The Dragon God and his contemporaries sought stability.
They would never court death without absolute certainty.
"He's gone," Old Zhang said, looking at the boundless starry sky, somewhat disappointed.
Lin Fan said, "Yeah, he left so quickly, we didn't even get to say anything."
"Let's go back."
"Okay."
Just as they were about to leave, a voice came, "Please wait."
The Pagoda Clan Ancestor flew over, smiling, cupping his hands and saying, "I am the Pagoda Clan Ancestor. I wonder if I could befriend Ancestor Lin?"
"My name is Lin Fan, not Ancestor Lin," Lin Fan explained. People always remembered his name wrong, which was annoying. He didn't think his name was anything special, very ordinary, not many strokes, and not tongue-twisting.
The Pagoda Clan Ancestor laughed, "Fellow Daoist, your cultivation is profound. I wonder what realm you have reached. My old eyes can't see it."
"I'm very ordinary, just cultivating as usual. I don't know the realm you're talking about." Lin Fan shook his head, unable to answer the other party's question. He always felt that the questions the other party asked were somewhat strange and he didn't quite understand them.
After a brief exchange, the Pagoda Clan Ancestor was very puzzled. What was going on with this Ancestor Lin? The communication wasn't smooth, as if something was blocking them.
It felt like playing the lute to a cow.
Of course, he couldn't say this feeling, but looked at Lin Fan with a smile. When faced with a smile, Lin Fan never flinched, naturally returning the smile.
Immediately, the two looked at each other, the brilliance of their smiles infecting everyone.
The descendants of the great starry sky races didn't dare to speak, thinking in their hearts, what are they doing? Is looking at each other really so interesting?
Gradually, the Pagoda Clan Ancestor felt like he had met his match, a tough opponent. He nodded with a smile, withdrew his gaze, cupped his hands, and said, "I have disturbed you. We'll talk again another day."
"Okay, welcome," Lin Fan smiled.
The retreating Pagoda Clan Ancestor was shocked. He still didn't understand what had happened, or rather, it seemed that nothing substantial had happened between him and Lin Fan.
The departing Planet Devouring Crocodile shed tears of sadness. My child, it's not that Dad doesn't want to avenge you, but the enemy is too strong. Dad can only choose self-preservation. In time, in a thousand or ten thousand years, Dad will definitely come back and destroy this broken place for you.
The hot-tempered Planet Devouring Crocodile ultimately retreated. His violent temper was often directed at the weak. When facing the strong, he was calmer than anyone.
Even if he returned full of anger from the Starry Sky Forbidden Zone, he wouldn't dare to be presumptuous, let alone wantonly destructive. A terrifying existence slumbered there.
If it was awakened, the Starry Sky Forbidden Zone would cease to exist, and they would pay a heavy price.
In the city:
"It's gone, that huge figure is gone."
"We're saved."
"Look at the special department's announcement. Our God Lin swept across the universe and stars, holding countless enemies at bay, domineering and awe-inspiring, ultimately repelling the enemy."
"Holy crap! I saw it, it was so badass."
The citizens, who had been in despair, were now reborn. Their minds were clear, and the things they couldn't let go of suddenly felt unimportant, just trivial matters.
Their state of mind had been elevated.
After all, the apocalypse just now was so close to them. The sky was covered by that huge figure, and they even heard that many coastal cities had been hit by monstrous waves. But for some reason, those waves, clearly surging towards the cities, were suddenly blocked by a mysterious force and gradually calmed down.
They all believed this was God Lin protecting them, saving them from disaster.
The official announcement was very domineering.
One-Eyed Man was a very serious person, but when he acted shamelessly, it was truly terrifying. Coupled with Jin He Li's ability to make up stories, it was earth-shattering.
There were many photos on the official website.
The first was a photo of the Planet Devouring Crocodile, its vast size shocking everyone. Below the photo was a caption:
The super ferocious beast, Planet Devouring Crocodile, capable of destroying the entire solar system and even the galaxy, the demonic god descended to destroy heaven and earth, but it encountered our God Lin and fled in panic.
When the citizens saw this photo, they broke out in a cold sweat. Standing on the planet, they couldn't see the true face of the Planet Devouring Crocodile and couldn't deeply understand the deterrence brought by the giant beast.
Now, seeing this photo, everyone could understand that their previous fear was insignificant. With such a size, who could withstand it?
They could only shout...
Long live God Lin!!!!
The second photo was of the Pagoda Clan Ancestor, with the caption:
Friend of the ferocious beast, the Cosmic Destruction Demon King. A seemingly frail body containing the power to destroy everything. Communicated with our God Lin, was intimidated by our God Lin's aura, and ultimately left unwillingly.
If the Pagoda Clan Ancestor knew about this, he would definitely stare wide-eyed, point at the photo and the caption, and angrily rebuke Jin He Li or One-Eyed Man.
How could you be so outrageous, labeling me as such an evil person without any justification?
Friend of the ferocious beast?
Friend your grandma.
A picture is worth a thousand words, the story is all made up. Regardless of who the other party is, as long as the story is believable to the citizens, it's fine. Moreover, since the other party is from a great starry sky race, they wouldn't care about these things.
And this also became the focus of discussion among ordinary citizens.
They pointed at these photos, analyzing how powerful these guys were, how strong their Lin Fan was, and why he could scare them into immobility. These were the topics they liked to discuss.
Just like us, we like to talk about national affairs when we eat.
Regardless of whether it's right or wrong, we'll praise it first.
In a certain room:
The alarm clock rang.
Sun Xiao groped around in a daze, grabbed his phone, turned off the alarm, opened the curtains, enjoyed the sunlight, stretched lazily, then started to wash up, made a simple breakfast, a glass of milk, a piece of bread. Life was pretty good.
He stayed up too late last night watching videos.
The white tissues in the trash can proved how fierce last night's battle was.
So he was very tired.
He looked at the time, two hours later than usual.
He habitually opened his livestream.
Gradually, people entered the livestream room.
"Good morning, everyone. I just woke up. Now I'm livestreaming going out." Sun Xiao greeted everyone with a smile, just like usual. If he was lucky, his boss might even give him a few dozen dollars worth of gifts.
Then he would have money for lunch.
But soon, Sun Xiao was attracted by the barrage in the livestream room.
"Dog streamer, hurry up and tell us, did you capture anything we don't know this morning?"
"That's right, such a big thing happened, and you didn't even livestream it."
"The scoundrel definitely discovered something and doesn't want others to know."
"Yeah, that makes sense, it must be like that."
Seeing these barrages, question marks appeared above Sun Xiao's head.
What did they mean?
He had no idea what the barrage was talking about.
He felt a bit baffled.
"What are you guys talking about?" Sun Xiao asked.
"Pretending, keep pretending."
"Oh, still playing tricks, huh?"
"Giant beasts descended, the end of the world, and you're still saying you don't know. If we hadn't seen the dark shadow in the sky, we would have been fooled by you."
Gradually, Sun Xiao felt like he had missed something important.
