Chapter 1003: Chapter 1002: 102: Extinction

Back in the Divine Realm, the Void Bug siblings — born of the same mother — were the guardians of space elements, with the brother striving diligently and ultimately becoming the God of Space Elements. You should know, the Seven Great Elemental Gods are all Level One gods, equivalent to what we call Super God-level powerhouses now. And being in the Divine Realm, a god with godhood isn’t quite the same as a wild god rank.

Meanwhile, Little Lazy Bug was especially lazy, seemingly having given all its diligence to her brother, spending all day just sleeping. The Dragon God controlled the nine elements, which naturally included the space element. She just ran over to the Dragon God and absorbed the space elements from him to sleep. Yes, not to cultivate, but to sleep. Because by the side of the Dragon God, it didn’t have to consciously absorb any energy to replenish itself; sleeping was sufficient.

Later, during the great war in the Divine Realm, the Dragon God was eventually defeated, as for many years, Little Lazy Bug had been on it like a parasitic bug. Before being slain at the end, the Dragon God flung Little Lazy Bug into the void.

“After the master threw me out, I didn’t know where I had gone. I was just floating in space. Occasionally, when I encountered space elements in space, I would absorb a little. I don’t know how much time had passed before I arrived here. There’s a kind of pure element here that can continuously provide me with energy, which I can convert into my own strength. I have to become stronger to avenge the master, so I stayed here.”

“Avenge the master? You?” The Treasure Hunting Beast’s mouth twitched.

Little Lazy Bug lowered its head with its two antennae facing each other, looking aggrieved, “But I’m tired. Later on, I fell asleep. And, I don’t remember how to cultivate anymore. I could only evolve slowly by myself. Then later, those ugly creatures came here. They saw the solids formed from my drool and treated them like treasures, demanding them from me. I let them bring me food in exchange. Then it went on like this. Eating and sleeping. I also don’t know what time it is.”

The Treasure Hunting Beast said, “Didn’t you say you wanted to cultivate to avenge your master?”

Little Lazy Bug said with a look of grievance, “But then, I thought about it, and I can’t fight. Even if I get stronger, it wouldn’t help. Don’t bully people. Master, he’s bullying me. Squash it!”

“You’re tattling now. You might as well die of laziness,” the Treasure Hunting Beast said exasperatedly.

“Yup, that’s what I think too. Dying of laziness must be the most wonderful thing,” Little Lazy Bug said longingly.

“Okay, both of you shut up,” Lan Xuanyu interrupted them. “So you’re saying, all this silver liquid here is secreted by you? The Space Source Crystal is formed by these liquids condensing. As long as you keep eating magic silver, it’ll generate Space Source Crystal, is that right?”

Little Lazy Bug blinked. “Master, what you’re saying is too complicated. I didn’t quite catch it.”

Lan Xuanyu had basically understood by now that Little Lazy Bug was a peculiar spatial property god-rank creature. Originally thrown out of the Divine Realm by the Dragon God, it had since settled here. Discovered by the Sky Domination Clan and treated as a precious treasure, they provided it with magic silver, allowing it to continually produce Space Source Crystal for the clan’s development.

That is to say, Little Lazy Bug was the most precious entity on No.76 Planet, and the source of Space Source Crystal.

“So to put it simply, as long as you have magic silver to eat, you can produce Space Source Crystal?” Lan Xuanyu asked.

“Yup. If I eat too much, I’ll drool,” Little Lazy Bug said, a bit embarrassed.

Looking at the silver lake before him, Lan Xuanyu’s heart twitched; if all this were to solidify into Space Source Crystal, how much would that be?

“If we take you away now, with the Sky Domination Clan guarding outside, will they notice?” Lan Xuanyu asked. They could leave under the cover of the Treasure Hunting Beast. But if Little Lazy Bug were to leave, would the god-level strong of the Sky Domination Clan immediately realize something was wrong?

“I don’t know,” Little Lazy Bug blinked. “How would I know such complicated things?”

Suddenly, Lan Xuanyu felt that, compared to Little Lazy Bug, the Treasure Hunting Beast was a lot more reliable…

Suddenly, the Treasure Hunting Beast said, “Then can you transport yourself to the outside? Ideally outside the planet.”

Little Lazy Bug pouted, “But there are so many tasty things here… Where should I go?”

“Go to a wonderful place where you can sleep without having to eat,” the Treasure Hunting Beast said enticingly, “And Master’s spatial property is about to awaken. Once Master awakens, you’ll be able to sleep like before. How great is that? You won’t have to bother with eating anymore.”

“Right, okay then. But I don’t know how to teleport. I’ve never learned,” Little Lazy Bug said innocently.

Bai Xiuxiu burst out laughing, “So aside from drooling, you can’t do anything else, can you?”

“Mmmhmm. I was just a Lazy Bug after all.”

Little Lazy Bug displayed an innocuous smile, unashamedly proud of itself.

Lan Xuanyu looked at the Treasure Hunting Beast and asked, “If we take it with us, will we get discovered?”

The Treasure Hunting Beast thought for a moment and said, “If I do all I can to cover it up, we shouldn’t be discovered for a short while. But we must not touch anything here. The concentration of the spatial elements here is very high. Once we take something from here, the elemental waves will change, and I won’t be able to cover it up.”

Lan Xuanyu and his companions exchanged glances, their hearts aching. So many spatial elements had gathered into this pure liquid—a fortune that amounted to astronomical numbers in Space Source Crystals.

But there was nothing they could do. Thinking about Little Lazy Bug as the reason for all this, as long as they took it back, they should be able to recreate Space Source Crystals. Lan Xuanyu nodded and said, “Then it’s settled, you’ll provide cover by simulating a Little Lazy Bug here. Then we’ll go.”

As he spoke, Lan Xuanyu handed something to the Treasure Hunting Beast. Looking at Little Lazy Bug in his hand, he asked the Treasure Hunting Beast, “What’s the best way to take it with us without it being detected?”

“Just do as I do. I’ll take it with me,” the Treasure Hunting Beast said. While speaking, a faint glow began to emanate from its body, and another Little Lazy Bug was instantly simulated.

“Wow, Ah Bao, are you going to deceive someone again?” Little Lazy Bug blinked its eyes.

“Shut up,” snorted the Treasure Hunting Beast.

“Oh, then I’m going to sleep,” said Little Lazy Bug. In Lan Xuanyu’s arms, all its tentacles retracted, and it curled up like a glutinous rice ball, closing its eyes and truly falling asleep.

Yuanen Huihui couldn’t help but say, “To be able to fall asleep instantly even when being taken away, how carefree must its heart be!”

The Treasure Hunting Beast carefully completed the simulation of Little Lazy Bug, and after a moment, nodded at Lan Xuanyu, saying, “Master, my illusion should last for an hour without a problem. But as time goes on, my divine consciousness will gradually dissipate, and the illusion will become less and less realistic. The sooner we leave, the better.”

“Okay! Let’s go.” Seeing so much Space Source Crystal and magic silver, Lan Xuanyu gritted his teeth and turned to leave. The Treasure Hunting Beast transformed into a beam of light, scooping up Little Lazy Bug from his arms and disappearing into his brow.

Removing the treasure from within the treasure mountain like this indeed meant empty-handed, but they had also wiped out the Sky Domination Clan’s Space Source Crystals. Lan Xuanyu’s heart ached a bit, but as soon as he entered the tunnel, his spirits lifted. As long as they could take Little Lazy Bug back, it was a big win.

Exiting the tunnel, they found themselves in the cave previously full of Space Source Crystals. The sight of not only the former single Sky Domination Clan powerhouse but now three, each with eight arms, made Lan Xuanyu and his companions’ hair stand on end.@@novelbin@@

Lan Xuanyu immediately realized that the other two must have been attracted away by the explosion of the antimatter missile and had dealt with it. They had just rushed back. Three God-level strong guardians for Little Lazy Bug underscored how crucial this place was for the Sky Domination Clan.
