Chapter 877: Chapter 878 - A Special Use Of Void Mayflies!

“Void mayflies!” Round Ball exclaimed.

Even without its reminder, Wang Teng remembered what they were. When he first came into this dimensional rift, he had accidentally made a connection with a bunch of void mayflies.

He finally understood the origins of the faint connection. It came from the void mayflies!

Wang Teng didn’t think that after so long, these void mayflies could still find his position when he came to the Dark Universe.

Round Ball’s face was almost pasted on the window. It stared at the countless dots of light outside and felt confused. “I wonder why these void mayflies came here?”

“Tsk, I didn’t think that I will have the honor of seeing one of the wonders of the Dark Universe.” It was in awe.

“One of the wonders of the Dark Universe?” Wang Teng was surprised.

“You don’t know? The void mayflies are one of the few lifeforms that live in the Dark Universe. Their lifespan is extremely short. They tour around and reproduce at the same time. When they die, their corpses fall wherever they are. That’s how they got the name ‘one-day’ mayflies. Not many people are able to see the beautiful scenery of them flying in the Dark Universe,” Round Ball said slowly.

“They have a short lifespan?” Wang Teng noticed a detail in Round Ball’s words. He frowned.

“That’s right. Everyone knows this.” Round Ball continued staring at the void mayflies outside, not noticing Wang Teng’s expression.

Wang Teng touched his chin and contemplated.

Something wasn’t right.

These mayflies had been alive since the last time it was here. He didn’t think they had a short lifespan.

Very soon, the void mayflies came close to them and started dancing around the spacecraft. They seemed to have found something and gathered in front of the window where Wang Teng and Round Ball were at.

Round Ball widened its eyes in astonishment. It was puzzled. “Did they come for me?”

Wang Teng chuckled secretly when he saw its stunned expression. He walked forward and tapped his finger on the window.

All the void mayflies started gathering toward his finger. They seemed to be answering his summons.

“What is this?” Round Ball stared at Wang Teng in amazement.

Even if it was an idiot, it could tell that these void mayflies didn’t come for it. They were here for Wang Teng.

This bastard!

Evil!

He knew the reason, yet he didn’t say it. He must be laughing at it. Round Ball gritted its teeth in anger and glared at Wang Teng.

“Don’t look at me like this. You didn’t ask me,” Wang Teng said innocently.

“So it’s my fault?!” Round Ball raised its voice and stared at Wang Teng in disbelief. It seemed shocked by his shamelessness.

“Of course.” Wang Teng nodded.

“Shut up!” Round Ball rolled its eyes.

Despite living for so many years, it got teased by a stupid kid that was less than 20 years old. Round Ball felt exasperated and speechless. It took a few deep breaths before it managed to calm its emotions. Then, it voiced out its greatest doubt, “Why did they come to look for you?”

“I established a spiritual connection with them.” Wang Teng released his spiritual power. It seeped through the metallic walls and went outside.

These void mayflies started forming various shapes under the guidance of his spiritual power. A second ago, they were butterflies. The next instant, they formed a giant whale… They seemed to be an extension of Wang Teng’s body. Round Ball was dazzled by their performance.

“You managed to form a connection with them!” Round Ball was dumbfounded. It asked in disbelief, “How?”

“Will you believe me if I say that I did it accidentally?” Wang Teng shrugged.

“Accidentally!” Round Ball didn’t know what to feel.

It felt that Wang Teng was putting on an act. He must be. However, it found no reason to refute him.

“Oh my… I’m so jealous!” Round Ball almost cursed after thinking for a long time.

“Void mayflies are rare, but they can’t seem to do anything besides being an extension of my spiritual power. They can only be used to scout the Dark Universe. I can’t bring them out, so their uses are limited. Why are you jealous?” Wang Teng shook his head.

“Indeed, you don’t know anything.” Round Ball looked at Wang Teng as if he was a country bumpkin. It said contemptuously, “Besides being an extension of your spiritual power, void mayflies can also condense spiritual skills in their bodies and give their opponent an unexpected attack. They’re a necessary item when you want to sneak an attack on someone.”

Round Ball’s eyes shone brightly. It seemed a little excited.

Wang Teng interrupted it with a cough and a weird expression.

“What?” Round Ball asked unhappily.

“Do you like to be sneaky too?”

“Of course. Isn’t it good to be a little sneaky? You don’t have to put in so much effort in fighting. If you plan it properly, you can kill someone more powerful than you…” Round Ball was exceptionally enthusiastic about this topic. It started chattering nonstop and didn’t notice Wang Teng’s expression turning strange.

This fellow has the same interests as me. Wang Teng chuckled as he thought to himself.

“Unfortunately, Master Nangong was too righteous. That was why he got tricked by others and died. Sigh…” Round Ball suddenly thought of Nangong Yue and lamented.

“That’s right. One can’t be too righteous,” Wang Teng nodded in agreement. He felt the same way.

The main reason why Nangong Yue got schemed by his disciple was that he was too naive. If he was as treacherous as me—wait, I’m not treacherous. If he was as smart as me, he wouldn’t have been tricked.

“Yes, do you think so too?” Round Ball seemed to have found its soulmate. It looked at Wang Teng earnestly. “Did you ask me if I like to be sneaky too? Does that mean you like to trick others?”

“Haha, come, let’s have a good discussion.” Wang Teng sniggered.

The two of them leaned together and started chatting like two good brothers.

“What other uses do the void mayflies have?” Wang Teng asked after conversing for some time.

“I’ve already listed out their main uses. The most important one is condensing skills. Void mayflies can condense all kinds of skills. One thing to note is, when the void mayflies establish a connection with another lifeform, they will be nourished by the lifeform’s spiritual power and their lifespan will be extended. They will no longer be one-day mayflies anymore. Their reproductive ability still exists, so they can multiply quickly,” Round Ball explained.

“I see. No wonder they can live until now.” Wang Teng nodded. He was enlightened.

“You should feel lucky. There’s rarely anyone that can establish a spiritual connection with void mayflies. Over the past eras, only a few instances have been recorded. All of them dominated their territories with the help of the void mayflies’ growth and became formidable martial warriors. They ruled over the universe and killed numerous enemies.” Round Ball’s eyes glowed. It said enviously, “Do you know what similarity these people have?”

“What?” Wang Teng asked curiously.

“All of them possess strong spiritual power. They’re all divine spirit masters!” Round Ball answered.

“Only those with strong spiritual power can have the chance to establish a spiritual connection with the void mayflies, right?” Wang Teng pondered as he said.

“That’s right. This is what the later generations concluded.” Round Ball nodded. “However, besides having strong spiritual power, you need a bit of luck too.”

“Luck?” Wang Teng stared at it curiously.

“Later, many divine spirit masters with strong spiritual power entered the Dark Universe to search for void mayflies. They hoped to establish a connection with them, but guess what, none of them succeeded. All of them died.” Round Ball scoffed.

“All of them failed?” Wang Teng was astounded.

He could guess that many people had come to search for these void mayflies and they must all be extremely powerful and confident in themselves. Yet none of them succeeded!

What did this mean?

This meant that luck was truly important.

His luck must be heaven-defying. How could he have accidentally made a connection with these void mayflies if his luck wasn’t amazing?

He didn’t even use any effort.

Round Ball rolled its eyes when it saw his delighted expression. “Alright, stop being proud of yourself. Let me teach you a way to keep these void mayflies in your consciousness. That way, you can bring them out of the Dark Universe.”

“Keep them in my consciousness?” Wang Teng was stunned. He asked hurriedly, “I can bring them away from the Dark Universe?”

“Of course.” Round Ball raised his head and said arrogantly, “Look, without me, you will need much more time to understand the great use of these void mayflies.”

“Hahaha, Round Ball, you’re my lucky star. Quick, tell me.” Wang Teng laughed happily.

“It’s simple. Form a spiritual bubble and wrap these void mayflies with your spiritual power to give them an environment to survive. Then, you can pull them into your consciousness.” Round Ball’s smile turned brighter when he heard Wang Teng’s compliment.

“Alright, watch me.” Wang Teng immediately followed Round Ball’s instructions and formed a bubble with his spiritual power. He wrapped the void mayflies inside.

The void mayflies seemed to like the bubble Wang Teng had formed. They floated happily inside it.

“Keep!”

Wang Teng pulled half of the void mayflies over. Then, he moved his thoughts, and the spiritual bubble merged into his forehead. It entered his consciousness.

“Done!” Wang Teng was elated when he sensed the void mayflies in his consciousness.

“Now, you need to learn how to condense spirit in the void mayflies,” Round Ball said.

“But I don’t know how,” Wang Teng said helplessly.

“You can experiment with them. You have many void mayflies to play around with. They multiply quickly, so you don’t have to worry about them dying.”

“Alright, I’ll try.” Wang Teng’s eyes shimmered. He was eager to start.
