Chapter 1888: Overflowing Riches

For a moment, everyone's gaze focused on the figure stepping out of the black mist.
It had a human-like body, lean but with clearly defined muscles.
Standing nearly two meters tall, black mist drifting around it, skin wheat-colored, ears pointed, and wearing earrings.
Its pitch-black pupils seemed to reflect the starry sky, with long black hair tied back into a short ponytail.
It was a handsome guy with an exotic style, quite fitting human aesthetics.
Bowing respectfully to the Black God.

(◕ˇ◠ˇ) "Subordinate Ye Yuan, greetings to Lord Black God. May I ask why you summoned me…"

The Black God pointed at Jiangnan casually:

●☛ "See that? Follow them, monitor them at all times, and report back to me."
"Once they try to run or slack off, making me bored with nothing to play with, just catch them and bring them back to the Dimensional Gap, clear?"

Ye Yuan's gaze fell on Jiangnan, the corner of his mouth lifting slightly:

(⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛) "At Lord Black God's command. I dare not slack off. I will complete the mission."

Jiangnan looked at Ye Yuan curiously:

(͡°~͡°) "Eh? Dimensional creatures can look this handsome? Your looks are already slightly threatening to mine, oh!"
"By the way, can't dimensional creatures only appear in the three-dimensional world by signing a contract? How come it…"

The Black God frowned: "He's not a dimensional creature! This is an Abyss Clan, a race living in the Star Down Abyss!"
"Since the Star Down Abyss borders my Dimensional Gap, many Abyss Clan members are my most loyal servants."
"Don't you try to play any tricks with me. Although the Abyss Clan is also weak, with Ye Yuan's strength, handling you few is still a piece of cake."
"Be honest and find me some fun things, understand? Otherwise…"

The Black God's aura gradually became dangerous, but Jiangnan ignored him entirely. Instead, he propped his chin and walked around Ye Yuan, studying him intently.

Dawei Tianlong beside him looked somewhat stunned and glanced questioningly at the Black God.
The Black God said nothing, merely giving Dawei Tianlong a faint look.
Dawei Tianlong quickly lowered his head and kept silent.

Jiangnan poked and prodded Ye Yuan's body, full of curiosity.

(*⁰̷̴꒨⁰̷̴) "Oh wow~ So this is the Abyss Clan? Must be at the Star Breaker Rank, right?"
As he spoke, he pulled open Ye Yuan's waistband and peeked inside.

∑(ଵдଵ*) "Holy crap!"

Ye Yuan:!!!

Ye Yuan grabbed his waistband and stepped back, veins bulging on his forehead:

(ꐦ⌒_⌒) "Lord Black God, may I kill this insect-like creature right now?"

Who the hell looks into someone's waistband at first meeting?
Are you even capable of being formal?

Jiangnan chuckled:

(๑՞ں՞) "What's there to be shy about? We're all men. Just our body structures aren't exactly the same. Expanding my horizons!"
"If you feel it's unfair, you can look at mine too. That would make us even, right?"

Ye Yuan glared: (ꐦ°᷄益°᷅) "Who wants to see… that thing of yours?"

The Black God said calmly: "Enough! Get lost, get lost. Don't disturb me while I'm operating the excavator."
"You're going to Thousand Stars City, right? Can't go directly from here. Dawei Tianlong, take them to the Dimensional Battlefield in the Extreme Dark Starry Sky."
"Go from there."

Dawei Tianlong bowed: "Yes, Lord Black God!"

Jiangnan was overjoyed. After much persuasion, they finally let him leave!
Once he got out, it would be like a bird free in the sky, a fish swimming in the sea!
As for this Ye Yuan? There's no way he could control him!

So he quickly called out to Xing Cheng:

(゚⌂゚)ツ "Chengbao'er, stop eating. Come on, let's go!"

Better to leave quickly, in case the Black God changed his mind.

Cheng Bao'er sat on the ground, let out a burp, and a cannon barrel with teeth marks popped out of her throat.
She picked it up, stuffed it back into her mouth, wiped her round little belly, and trotted over to Jiangnan.

(。•〰•。`) "Chengbao'er ~ *burp* is here!"

At this moment, everyone looked at the pile of junk. Hmm, there was no pile left—not even a scrap. Even the ground had been licked clean.
Truly, "sit and eat the mountain empty."

The Black God watched this scene and froze as well.
This human's appetite was extraordinary! In just this short time, everything was gone!
Humans could eat this much?
He even felt a slight pang of loss, since there were a few favorite toys in that junk pile.
But in front of Jiangnan, he naturally wouldn't show it.
I, the dignified Black God, how could I care about such things?

Dawei Tianlong roared, carrying Jiangnan's group out of the pure white space, heading straight for the dimensional wind tunnel outside the Lost Kingdom.
Toward the Dimensional Battlefield of the Extreme Dark Starry Sky.

But compared to before, there was one more person in the group—an Abyss Clan named Ye Yuan.

As Jiangnan and the others left, the originally lively pure white space was left with only the Black God.
The background music from the gaming console continued to play. The Black God rested his head in his hand, sitting in the excavator's cab, looking somewhat lonely.
What to do? They just left, and he already felt bored. Should he just grab them back now?

At that moment, the Black God seemed to recall something. The black mist around him surged restlessly, showing a hint of excitement.
His form flickered, and he appeared in his collection room. Before him was the small glass globe containing a pile of organs.
With a wave of his hand, the organs began to arrange and combine themselves in specific positions, forming a complete human body.
The next moment, the Black God stepped forward, his black mist form completely merging into the human shell.
The heart began to beat, blood started flowing. Organs from different individuals, now combined, operated perfectly.
A brand new human life was born.

He stood there, completely naked, slowly clenching his fists and murmuring to himself:

(˶‾᷄⥎‾᷅˵) "Hmm? So this is a human? What a strange feeling. So weak…"
"I want to try and see where this 'infinite possibility' of humans really lies."

As he spoke, he instinctively reached back and scratched his rear.
Then he looked down.

(ଵ~ଵ๑) "Hmm… Large-scale lethal weapon? Wiping out billions of lives with a wave? How is it used? Wave…"

Just as he was about to study the specific usage, he instinctively reached back and scratched his rear again.

(•︠~•︡)୨ "Hmm? Why do I feel an itch back there? Strange…"

His face was full of confusion, but that didn't matter—the complete human body was already in hand.
This harvest was truly extraordinary, saving him a lot of trouble collecting.
And there were also the game console, excavator, and such…
Thinking of this, the corner of the Black God's mouth lifted into a curve.

(๑¯ิٹ¯) "Boring life is finally getting a bit interesting."
"Jiangnan? Interesting. First I let Jiang Fan escape, now Jiangnan shows up? Even though he got away, don't think you can escape my grasp!"

Meanwhile, the crab boss was still running in circles, now already in tears.

=͟͟͞͞=͟͟͞͞(;´༎ຶ口༎ຶ`) "Hey! Is anyone going to help me? How do I stop this?"
"I'm still running, dammit!"

……

On the other side, atop Dawei Tianlong's scales, Jiangnan's group felt like they were sitting on a continent.

Mo Mo was full of excitement:

ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~ "We really came out alive? It feels like a dream. Nan Shen, you're amazing!"

Ai Jiang patted her chest:

ᥬ(๑°.̮°๑)᭄ "I recorded everything. Such an incredible experience—I'm afraid no one will believe me if I tell them later."

Xing Cheng rubbed her belly:

(。•╰╯•。`) "Black ball ~ is a good person."

Jiangnan puffed out his chest with pride:

(︶.̮︶〃) "What do you think? How could the Dimensional Gap possibly keep me?"

Dawei Tianlong glared: "You haven't even left yet! Don't get cocky! Letting you go is only because Lord Black God is kind-hearted, wise, heroic, and strategic!"
"Don't forget your mission!"

Jiangnan pouted: (乛৺乛๑) "Yeah, yeah. Stop flattering him. You've used up all the words you know, haven't you?"
"Besides, the Black God isn't here. And how dare you talk to your master like that?"
"You're my summon beast! From now on, you're working for me. Watch your attitude, okay?"

As he spoke, he showed off the glass mark on the back of his hand to Dawei Tianlong, with an expression that practically begged to be punched.

Dawei Tianlong's forehead bulged with veins, wishing he could crush Jiangnan with one palm.
But the contract prevented him from harming Jiangnan.
Just thinking about it made him angry. How did he end up signing a contract with this weak human?
Damn it, just wait. There will be plenty of time to make you suffer later!

[From Dawei Tianlong's Resentment Value +1003!]

"I advise you not to try summoning me easily after you leave. I don't have time to serve you. And with your fragile little body…"
"Don't get yourself drained of spiritual power and exhausted to death before you even manage to summon me."

Jiangnan's expression froze, and cold sweat poured down his forehead. He had forgotten about that.
Summoning a dimensional creature into the three-dimensional world constantly consumes the summoner's spiritual power to keep them there.
Although Dawei Tianlong was extremely powerful, his size was also terrifying.
With his own Dao Heaven-level spiritual power reserve, could he really summon it?
Damn it, he had gotten a huge bargain and contracted Dawei Tianlong.
He thought he'd hit the jackpot, having a Planet Destroyer-level powerhouse like Dawei Tianlong as his escort, making the trip to Thousand Stars City a smooth ride.
But who knew such a big weapon was unusable?
If he couldn't summon it, that would be too pitiful!

But this trip to the Lost Kingdom had indeed yielded significant gains.
He got his Dao Heaven technique, though he hadn't absorbed it yet.
Xing Cheng had a full set of spiritual techniques, Mo Mo had become complete, and he himself had gained the ability of the Summoning System.
What a huge profit, right?

His gaze shifted to the Abyss Clan named Ye Yuan.
Since Ye Yuan had followed them, he had been sitting cross-legged, not speaking, with a slight smile on his lips, as if thinking of something happy.

Jiangnan teleported beside him and naturally put an arm around his shoulder.

(͡°͜ʖ͡°)✧ "Hey, brother! Thinking of something happy that's making you smile so much? Tell me, so I can be sad too."

Ye Yuan's smile froze instantly.

???
