Chapter 2336: Did He Invoke Heavenly Punishment?

The members of the Bully Gang were about to pop their eyes out!

"Oh my god? Is Boss Nan really thinking about sucking on the Starry Sky Eye? Can that actually work? Although we've never seen the Watchers interfere in starry sky matters, we've also never seen anyone bold enough to make a move on them, right? What if that thing is some kind of super awesome incarnation of the will of the starry sky?"

Everyone was terrified, clutching their heads with wide, horrified eyes. After finishing off eight Star Devourers and causing the great disaster of the Northern Crown, he still wants to suck on the Starry Sky Eye? Are you a dan that cultivated into a spirit or something? They hurriedly waved their hands, calling for Jiangnan to come back and not be impulsive.

But Wang Youzhi was laughing his ass off:

(งᵒ̌ꇴᵒ̌)ง "Hahaha! Little brother, go for it! Suck their eyes blind! Don't worry, don't worry! Those two melon-eaters won't lift a finger against you!"

As the starry sky's ultimate fun-seeker, Black God was purely enjoying the chaos and not afraid of it being too big. Once he told Jiangnan, the guy actually did it!

Suona was even chanting BGM on the side, cheering for Black Hole Jiang.

At this moment, Yu Gen, Noah, and the others were stunned.

"What the hell? What is Jiangnan trying to do? Attack the Watchers? Is he insane?"

Di Chou was excited: "Go ahead! Just go ahead! Daring to touch the Watchers? Hopefully they'll get pissed and just kill Jiangnan directly. That would save us a lot of trouble!"

But even as a Bose, he still didn't understand what kind of existence the Watchers were. According to ancient clan records, the Watchers had been eating melons since the Great Opening Era.

Not only were the Star Devourers present stunned, but even the ten thousand races watching this battle on the Stellar Network were dumbfounded.

"Damn! As expected of the newly promoted Fifth Calamity! He dares to go after the Watchers' Starry Sky Eyes? We're probably witnessing history here!"

As Black Hole Jiang got closer and closer to the Starry Sky Eye, both Mailiushi and Chen Mu panicked.

"If you want to go, go yourself! Don't drag us along! Let us go! Let go! Damn it, let go!"

But they couldn't break free from the powerful gravitational field of the black hole and were forcibly dragged up by Jiangnan, wishing they could die.

The two Watchers remained unmoved. The one recording thought it was nice, since Jiangnan was so close, making it easier to see clearly. Its eyes widened even more, and its hand moved faster on the Starry Sky Book.

But the one standing guard's eye twitched. Isn't this a bit too close?

At this moment, Jiangnan's Black Hole Devourer had already arrived directly beneath the Starry Sky Eye, completely enveloping the two Watchers in its powerful gravitational field.

However, an astonishing scene occurred: the black hole's gravitational field, even the time dilation zone, had no effect on the two Watchers. They still moved freely.

The recording Watcher rested its Starry Sky Pen on its chin, observed the black hole up close, nodded, and wrote something else in the book.

Black Hole Jiang: ???

"What the hell? No effect at all? And you're still watching! Still watching! I turn into a black hole, and you come over to eat melons, staring at me with those big eyes! I have no secrets left! And you won't even let me see what you're writing in the Starry Sky Book? Since when is there a free melon in this world? Don't you know pumpkins are poisonous?"

The more Jiangnan thought about it, the more unconvinced he became. He directly charged at the two Watchers, forcing them onto the event horizon. If they went any further, they would be completely swallowed by the black hole.

The standing guard Watcher's eyes bulged. It grabbed the recording Watcher and retreated instantly, abandoning the table, chair, and everything else. When they reappeared, they were at a safe distance.

Black Hole Jiang was stunned. "What the hell? On the event horizon, time is frozen, and the Watchers just ignored it?"

But Yu Gen and Noah's pupils contracted. "They dodged? So even the Watchers don't want to enter a black hole? Sigh..."

The recording Watcher, clutching the Starry Sky Book, seemed a bit angry. It actually raised its middle finger at Jiangnan again!

凸(❍ꐦ)

Everyone's jaws hit the floor. "The Watchers also know the universal gesture?"

Black Hole Jiang was furious. "You ate my pumpkin, I didn't even charge you, and now you're flipping me off?" He swerved and aimed directly for the Starry Sky Eye above.

"I don't care! Watch me suck your eye! Maybe I'll even open a Heavenly Eye or get a new skill or something!"

But Mailiushi and Chen Mu screamed: "No! Don't take us with you! Go by yourself!"

Just as the black hole's main body was about to touch the Starry Sky Eye, the massive eye directly closed and disappeared, leaving no trace. Black Hole Jiang sucked nothing—not even an eyelash.

But the recording Watcher was furious. It closed its Starry Sky Book, holding it like a brick, and was about to charge at Jiangnan. However, the standing guard Watcher grabbed it and shook its head.

Black Hole Jiang turned left and right, and the red glow inside turned into a funny eye—clearly a provocation, as if saying, "Come and get me if you can!"

The recording Watcher was so angry that its whole body erupted with starlight, stomping its feet on the spot. But the standing guard Watcher dragged it away, their figures growing dimmer until they completely vanished into nothing. Before leaving, the recording Watcher turned back and glared at Jiangnan, as if saying, "Just you wait!"

Everyone was dumbfounded. "Not even the Watchers who came to record major events got chased away? The Watchers won't enter a black hole, so who can deal with Jiangnan now?"

Wang Youzhi cackled: (´థꇴథ)σ "Hahaha! Serves you right for eating melons blindly! Got kicked out, didn't you? Next time you come for melons, remember to bring melon money! Did we give you permission to watch?"

Seeing the Watchers retreat, Wang Youzhi was immensely proud.

Jiangnan felt it was a pity not to have sucked the Starry Sky Eye; he'd hoped to open a Heavenly Eye or something.

At that moment, Jiangnan's will finally reached its limit. The red glow died out, and the black hole vanished instantly, leaving a clean circle in the starry sky. At its center, a baleful flame burned quietly.

Jiangnan didn't choose to return to the dimensional gap to cancel his black hole state; he canceled it directly under the starry sky.

Looking at the baleful flame, Yu Gen narrowed his eyes, and his hand unconsciously tightened on his cane sword.

Just then, the void behind the baleful flame shattered, and a dark gold Giant Divine Dragon appeared in the dimensional gap. A black humanoid figure stood on its head, silent, watching everything calmly.

Yu Gen's forehead broke out in a cold sweat. He ultimately gave up any thought of striking.

Mailiushi and Chen Mu, seeing the black hole disappear, didn't dare stay any longer. They fled as far from Jiangnan as possible.

Sucking the Starry Sky Eye had nearly scared their souls out, even though they were longtime Star Devourers—they'd never done anything this intense before!

Fortunately, nothing happened.

This time, Jiangnan's return didn't take long.

Where the baleful flame was, Jiangnan's ghostly figure emerged, rapidly solidifying, and soon returned to the three-dimensional starry world, looking exactly the same as before using Black Hole Devourer, except with tired eyes.

The first thing he did upon returning was look down at the ground.

"Mhm... still there..."

The Bully Gang couldn't bear to watch. "How afraid are you of losing it?!"

At this moment, Yu Gen and Di Chou couldn't tell. Seeing Jiangnan's condition, lively and vigorous, he didn't seem affected at all. Could he really have fully mastered the power of Black Hole Devourer, as he claimed?

Jiangnan grinned:

(∗͡°↼͡°) "As everyone knows, I'm a peace-loving man. Since neither side wants to fight and the ceasefire agreement is settled, how about we call it here? Oh, right, don't forget to send me the special action permit!"

Yu Gen said indifferently: "You won't be shortchanged. The matter is settled, but you've wrecked Beimian Star like this. How do we settle that account? Humans also got the mining area. Since you started this, isn't it only fair for humans to rebuild Beimian Star?"

Jiangnan glared: (ꐦ°᷄д°᷅) "Bullshit! Let me spit out your colorful, rainbow-tinged, curly fart! How much did I actually destroy? Far less than you! How much did the Silicon-based cannon blast apart? That's none of my business! Under an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent! Why should I pay compensation? I think you're just—"

Before he could finish, the starry sky suddenly lit up brilliantly.

A bolt of bright blue thunder, over ten thousand kilometers in diameter, appeared out of nowhere. It struck straight down at Jiangnan like a heavenly sword from above, accompanied by a thunderous roar that could pierce eardrums. The thunderbolt alone was about the size of a typical life-bearing planet.

Under the thunder, Jiangnan looked incredibly small.

Before it even hit, Jiangnan's hair stood on end. His pupils contracted as he looked up.

"What the hell?!" (꒪ͦ△꒪ͦ٥)

Where did this thunder come from? Who did this? There was no warning at all! A thunderbolt this exaggerated, if it hit a planet, could shatter it, right?

Everyone was stunned by the sudden thunderbolt. It came too fast; Jiangnan couldn't even react.

Instinctively, his hand reached toward the sky.

"Dimensional Reduction Strike!"

In an instant, a 10-kilometer-square two-dimensional plane formed.

"Rumble!"

The earth-shattering thunder struck down with irresistible force, precisely guided. The blinding lightning completely engulfed Jiangnan's figure.

The next moment, the two-dimensional plane expanded at superluminal speed, instantly growing to over 30,000 kilometers in size. The thunder was fully unfolded by the plane, and its energy became nourishment for the plane.

On the two-dimensional plane, an expanded violent thunder appeared, shockingly magnificent.

But Jiangnan below was unharmed.

The massive two-dimensional plane existed for only a few breaths before disappearing.

Jiangnan stood there dumbfounded, then glared angrily:

(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃ "Who?! Who was it? How dare you strike me with lightning? Don't want to live? Try it again if you've got the guts!"

"Rumble!"

Another enormous thunderbolt appeared out of nowhere, mercilessly striking Jiangnan, even more powerful than the last.

Jiangnan: ???

Wang Youzhi: (•́ω•̀٥)...
