Chapter 638 — The Cosmos Behemoth Bulu

"Is that all?" With the storm under control, Shi Jin snapped his fingers, and with a whoosh whoosh whoosh, the gigantic storm sphere was wiped away as if erased, dispersing madly; the power that had just been raging across the starry sky seemed in that instant to

return to nothingness, as though it had never existed at all.

In a moment the starry-sky storm vanished completely, and Shi Jin's mechanical glove began to dissolve. "All right, let us continue looking for a suitable battleground."

"You..." Bulu looked at Shi Jin and fell slightly silent.

Beside them, the Spirit King unconsciously smiled. "As expected of the one who passed the Glory Challenge—strong indeed."

"Yes. There is no need to fight—I already acknowledge your strength," Bulu said. "Whether we fight or not is no longer so important...

Among those of the same rank, you are the first to turn my curse into a power I can control..."

"We are not fighting?" Shi Jin asked.

"We are not fighting. My standard for a partner's strength is simply

that the other party has the strength to withstand the calamity I bring. You have done so beyond any doubt," Bulu said.

"Of course, one test may not be enough—I will need to test you a few more times. This time might have been nothing but coincidence."

"Mm, then let us fight a round anyway," Shi Jin said.

"We are not fighting."

Shi Jin: ?

"Wait, Bulu, you are not suddenly afraid, are you?" Shi Jin asked suspiciously.

Seeing how easily he had dealt with the starry-sky storm, had Bulu realized the gap in their strength?

"I'm not scared at all!" The cosmic behemoth's face twisted with fury.

The next moment, a rumbling "gurgle-gurgle" echoed from deep in its belly, resounding through the starry sky.

Beside it, the Spirit King said, "I forgot to tell you earlier—because Bulu is a mutated cosmic behemoth, feeding is extremely difficult. After reaching the Primordial God level, the planetary laws that other cosmic behemoths feed on can no longer

satisfy its nutritional needs; they simply do not suit its palate."

"And high-grade planets are not something it has the power to provoke."

"So it has not had a full meal for a very long time. Ordinarily it sleeps, and that's no problem—but after moving about for a while in a cosmic behemoth's body, the hunger should come rushing back."

"The reason it no longer wants to fight is probably that it has gradually begun to feel hungry." The Spirit King spoke.

"Curse it all," Bulu raged. Even shrunk down, it still felt desperately hungry.

Had it known, it would not have opened the Cosmic Cavity so far away.

Shi Jin:

"Truly pitiful. Bad luck alone would be bad enough, but it cannot even fill its belly," Shi Jin said, shaking his head.

"So what do you eat when you are out and about?"

"Within the legion, a super-divine powerhouse well versed in nutrition science specially researched and developed a suitable food for Bulu. But it is too difficult to manufacture and extremely expensive, so even Bulu cannot eat it regularly. Using sleep to numb itself

is the best choice."

"So I suspect one of its trials will be whether you can afford to feed it."

"So hungry..." At this moment, the more the Spirit King spoke, the hungrier Bulu felt.

"Yes, you absolutely must provide food." [Eleven approves.] Without food, never mind fighting—it was growing too lazy even to move. It wanted only to sleep.

(merged into previous paragraph)

As they spoke, the body of the cosmic behemoth Bulu shrank smaller and smaller, until it had soon shrunk into a one-meter-tall little monkey—truly stopping at nothing to save energy.

For a cosmic behemoth, maintaining a colossal body was the most comfortable state. It did consume some energy, but being able to unleash power to the utmost made them feel utterly at ease. At present, Bulu's behavior was tantamount to casting aside the pride

of a cosmic behemoth and bowing to life's demands.

Smallness was a disgrace to a cosmic behemoth; largeness was glory. It had clearly abandoned the honor of its race, wanting only to lie flat and be comfortable.

"Did you not bring food?" Shi Jin asked.

"I had a backup before I went to sleep, but just now I checked—my spatial equipment was damaged, and all the food was lost to a rift in time and space," Bulu said bitterly.

Food, its food.

It would rather have run into a starry-sky storm than suffer the misfortune of carelessly losing its emergency rations.

"There's no helping it." Shi Jin scratched his head, took out a cultivation fruit, and tossed it to Bulu. "Try this thing—see whether it can fill your belly."

"It has at least some nutrition. Since ordinary food does not suit your palate, try something out of the ordinary."

"What is this?"

Catching the cultivation fruit Shi Jin tossed over, Bulu sensed its exceedingly high quality—close to that of the food the super-divine powerhouse had tailor-made for it.

Once he had the fruit, Bulu did not hesitate for even a moment and swallowed it straight down, not worrying about poison or the like.

After all these years of experience, it had accidentally come into contact with countless toxic substances. Its body was now immune to all poisons and had antibodies—even poisons from the Dark King's faction could never contaminate it.

Yet after the little monkey gulped the cultivation fruit down in one bite, its gaze changed instantly, becoming abruptly dull and dazed.

In an instant, its face turned green and then white; clutching its throat, it began dry-heaving—but it did not last two seconds before it was knocked out cold by the stench, collapsing into a dead faint beside them.

Spirit King: ????

"You—what did you feed it!!"

Shi Jin stroked his chin. "It won't eat ordinary food, and

anything out of the ordinary won't do either? So picky.

Besides, Baby Ginseng is not even a Primordial God yet! How could a single fruit drop it in one second?

Is this cosmic behemoth really reliable?

Of course, it is also possible that this has to do with its current state.

It really must have been hungry before.

"Here, Senior Spirit King, want one?" Shi Jin held two cultivation fruits, handed one to the Spirit King, and crunched one himself. Though his face turned green and then white, he seemed already used to the taste.
