Fantasy: I'm Really Not A Supreme Master!

"What’s wrong with the Divine Kings?"

"Could it be a case of food poisoning? Maybe something they ate didn’t agree with them?"

"This is outrageous, simply outrageous! Those are Divine Kings and Brahma Kings we’re talking about, and they’re behaving in such a disgraceful manner!"

A group of Divine Monarchs all had complex expressions on their faces, completely clueless about what was happening.

At this point, Lord Tianji and the others felt even more miserable.

Because that sensation…

…was ongoing!

The Heavenly Insect seemed to never stop. It just kept eating and eating!

"Help me... I really can’t vomit anymore... urgh... urgh!"

Lord Tianji was close to tears, sprawled out in the void, his bile almost pouring out.

"Damn it… what in the world did your master eat to make it seem like he’s eating shit… I can’t take it anymore, I can’t... urgh!"

Liaochen’s face turned pale, his snow-white kasaya now stained with vomit, and his whole body appeared to be on the verge of collapse.

Daowuyi was trembling all over, his limbs spasming, he was completely drained!

"There must be something wrong here... there has to be…"

The three of them were nearly at their wits’ end because as they vomited uncontrollably, they felt a sense of fullness.

It was as if they were overstuffed.

This was just too bizarre!

Moreover, they all understood that this was all because their senses had merged with that of the Heavenly Insect; whatever it felt, they felt!

…

Meanwhile, outside the small mountain village.

Under the diligent care of a group of kids, the dung beetle had actually grown to the size of a fist!

No one knew whether it was from being overfed or what.

At the moment, the bucket of manure Da Niu and Xiao Zhu had brought over was almost empty.

"Wow, this dung beetle sure can eat."

"So impressive!"

"It’s gotten so big!"

A group of children surrounded the dung beetle, animatedly discussing it as if they had achieved something great.

The Heavenly Insect, at this point, was about to burst.

It was so full it felt dizzy!

"Let’s go fetch another two buckets, the dung beetle probably hasn’t had enough yet!"

Seeing this, Da Niu suggested with innocent candor.

Hearing this, the Heavenly Insect was genuinely shocked.

Ni ma...

When will this end?

What kind of devils are these, not sparing me even after I’ve devoured a whole bucket of manure? It’s doubting how much they’ve actually prepared for it!

This is too much bullying of an insect!

It promptly stuck up its legs and rolled over, belly up…

This was... giving up.

It had firmly decided it couldn’t eat anymore!

Seeing this, the children all became anxious.

"What’s wrong with the dung beetle?"

"Is it full now?"

"Must be, I guess…"

They were all bewildered.

"Da Niu, what are you doing?!"

Just then, Auntie Wang’s voice came from the entrance of the village.

Hearing this, the children all turned their heads.

"Auntie Wang, we are feeding the dung beetle!"

"Yeah, we’ve fed it so much, it’s gotten so big!"

"We did great!"

The children spoke out one after the other.

Auntie Wang, hearing this, walked over and glanced at the Heavenly Insect.

"That’s not a dung beetle. Dung beetles don’t look like that."

"It’s so vile, probably some kind of pest. You kids should keep away from it!"

Hearing this, the Heavenly Insect on the ground was overwhelmed with emotion!

A savior, an absolute savior indeed.

Yes, I’m a pest, I’m a pest, please stay away from me!

It was so excited that it flipped back over.

But upon hearing this, the children suddenly felt utterly disappointed.

"Ah, so it wasn’t a dung beetle after all!"

"A pest, a pest!" Explore more adventures at NovelBin.Côm

"That’s outrageous, making us feed it for so long!"

And Wang Erxiao became even more indignant, saying:

"This insect is so bad, coming to our village and scamming food and drink!"

Hearing this, the Heavenly Insect was trembling.

Is there no justice left?

No law at all!

How can such devils force me to swallow so much... and then have the nerve to accuse me of freeloading!

But, the next moment it was scared witless.

"This bug looks disgusting, move aside, Auntie is going to squish it."

Auntie Wang, hoe in hand, brought it smashing down towards it.

No...

I am a dung beetle; I am a dung beetle; I am willing to be a dung beetle!

I can still eat!!!

Don’t kill me!

The Heavenly Insect was in utter panic, clearly sensing that the hoe’s force was far more frightening than the dreadful sickle.

Shaken by this force, it couldn’t even move!

"Pop!"

The sound of the insect getting squashed.

Auntie Wang casually put away her hoe and said:

"Come on, follow Auntie home, and I’ll make you some fresh wheat pancakes to eat."

Hearing this, everyone suddenly got excited.

"Let’s go, eat fresh wheat pancakes!"

The children, ever so forgetful, threw the dung beetle matter out of their minds in an instant and followed Auntie Wang back to the village.

…

At that moment.

"No!"

In the cosmos’ Star Vault, Lord Tianji and the Liao Chen Brahma King, all three cried out in horror.

Aside from retching violently, they felt an immense terror of death descending upon them.

This left them all so frightened that they turned pale, and even closed their eyes, feeling as though they were about to die.

But, what followed was a long silence.

Off in the distance, Lord Wanqiong, Jia Ye Brahma Monarch and others waited anxiously, not knowing what exactly had happened.

After a long, long time.

"We... we are not dead..."

Lord Tianji spoke with trembling voice.

Liao Chen said somewhat dazedly:

"The mercy of Brahma... Have we finally cut off our connection with that Heavenly Insect?"

At that moment, he almost wanted to cry; damn it, that feeling of something constantly being stuffed into one’s throat... It was too disgusting!

In actuality, the three of them were completely unharmed.

From start to finish... it was only a mental and emotional torment that was inhumanly cruel.

"No, that’s not right... Why, why did the connection suddenly break off?"

At this time, the previously sweating Daowuyi from nervousness suddenly asked anxiously:

"My master... did he..."

"Die?"

This was the only possibility... The Heavenly Insect had been exterminated.

His face turned extremely ugly in an instant!

After all, that Heavenly Insect was still of great use to him, and could aid his cultivation.

Moreover, if the Heavenly Insect had died, did it mean that their actions had been exposed?

From then on, all their actions could no longer be hidden.

At this moment, cold sweat streamed down his face.

"Divine King, what is your take on this?"

At that moment, the steadied Liao Chen turned to look at Lord Tianji.

Lord Tianji’s expression was dark as he said:

"I suspect there are higher beings aiding the spirit behind the Eighth Direction Heavenly Dao!"

"The Heavenly Dao Spirit disappeared mysteriously, and the Heavenly Insect was also subdued... This person is no ordinary being."

"In my opinion, we should halt our actions for now."

But Liao Chen shook his head and said:

"We cannot halt."

"This matter must be done in one fell swoop or else our grand scheme will be leaked immediately."

A cold smirk appeared in his eyes as he spoke:

"As for the person behind the Heavenly Dao Spirit... I think you’re overestimating them, Divine King."

Lord Tianji said coldly:

"Overestimating? Was that feeling of near-death just now fake?"

The reason he wanted to retreat was that the feeling of being targeted and destroyed he felt just now... made him cautious.

As a figure at the Divine King level, he had not felt this way for hundreds of thousands of years.

Its occurrence now gave him a bad premonition.

"Divine King, do not forget, all that we felt just now was, in fact, the experience of the Heavenly Insect!"

Liao Chen said:

"In other words, as long as the Heavenly Insect is afraid, we will also be afraid, but after all, it is just an insect. How can you be sure that the one who killed it was a truly powerful being and not a common person?"

With that, he looked at Daowuyi and continued:

"If I’m not mistaken, although the Heavenly Insect is peculiar, there are numerous methods by which it can be killed, and moreover, there is no need for an especially powerful entity to act, right?"

Daowuyi nodded and responded:

"That’s true... The Heavenly Insect is an unparalleled strange insect that can devour the Heavenly Dao, but... it also has many fatal weaknesses."

Liao Chen nodded and proclaimed:

"Therefore, I surmise that the one who eradicated the Heavenly Insect is not any true powerhouse!"

His face was filled with conviction as he declared:

"Moreover, this is just a Star Domain of the Lower World, where even Divine Monarch-level figures are not expected to exist, how could there be a presence that threatens us?"

Hearing this, Lord Tianji also started to ponder.

What the Brahmic Lord said... made a lot of sense indeed.

"Had it not been for the Brahmic Lord’s explanation, I would have truly been misled."

Lord Tianji immediately spoke out:

"Then, following the Brahmic Lord’s opinion, what should we do now?"

Liao Chen looked towards Daowuyi and said:

"If I’m not mistaken, you should be able to trace the Heavenly Insect’s trail?"

Daowuyi nodded and replied:

"I am indeed very familiar with the Heavenly Insect’s aura and can trace it."

Liao Chen stated:

"Then I ask you, my friend, to make a move and track it."

Daowuyi’s face showed difficulty as he said:

"The place where my master died, its dangers are unknown, how can I go there lightly..."

Liao Chen sighed softly and said:

"Friend, don’t you understand?"

"You no longer have a choice, the entity of the Eighth Direction Heavenly Dao must die, or else it will be an endless trouble. Our three families will be loathed for eternity, becoming the public enemies of the world."

"Besides, in this Substellar Domain, not even the Constant Realm has been born, and there are more Divine Monarch-level figures. What is there for you to fear?"

As he spoke, he took out a crystal casket.

Inside the casket lay a stone.

The stone looked as if it had been soaked too long in rotting foul water, appearing dark and murky.

The crystal casket emitted a faint Brahmic golden light, yet even so, the stone still seemed unsettling, as if it represented a certain horror.

"What is this?!"

Lord Tianji exclaimed in surprise.

Even he, a mighty Divine King, could not see through it.

"This object, the Immortal Stone."

Liao Chen smiled lightly and turned to Daowuyi, saying:

"Brother Dao, you must have heard of the legend of this stone? No matter who it is, so long as they have such a stone by their side when they die, their soul shall become undying and indestructible."

"There is but one such stone in the entire Western Paradise Brahma Court, and now it is lent to you for use!"

He passed the crystal casket to Daowuyi.

Daowuyi’s expression was also very solemn; he could tell that this stone... was indeed extraordinary!

It must be... the legendary Immortal Stone.

This was a treasure to save one’s life.

"Okay, since that’s the case... I will plunge into the tiger’s den for a glimpse!"

He agreed.
