Chapter 226: The Power of Miracles

When he entered the space crack, Su Bai found that it was different from before this time.

In the past, there would be a transmission force. Su Bai would then find that he had reached a new place.

This time, he felt more like he had entered a long and dark corridor. They were sent down by a force of teleportation at a very fast speed.

In his perception, it took about ten hours for this transmission power to disappear completely and for them to arrive at the real Heavenly Abyss.

“This is the Heavenly Abyss! It really is the same as the legend says!”

The others in front stared at this world in awe. Shocked senseless, they looked at everything around them with fascinated eyes.

The same was true for Su Bai. He had heard a lot of legends about Heavenly Abyss, but it was not as shocking as when he really saw it.

“Howl!” What a great place; I feel so comfortable here! the cub exclaimed.

“Roar~” This is definitely a good place. I like it here~

“Roar!” Ah Bai, I feel a very ancient aura; this place is definitely very, very old.

[According to my inspection, the gravity here is weak, the radiation is diffuse, and all kinds of rays are flooded. The atmosphere in the space crack is weak, and most are hydrogen and helium. Humans can’t survive here; Ah Bai, please be careful.]

An electric light radiated from 1314’s body, blasting away to analyze the surroundings quickly.

This place inside the Heavenly Abyss was actually so huge that they could not see the end of it. The whole area was very dark, and gray and black were the main colors here.

There was no gravity and the surroundings were extremely empty. Occasionally, meteorites flew by; some floating planets could even be seen in the distance. Some of them were broken as if they had been eaten by something, leaving only half behind.

It was too dark to see further, but it felt like a starry sky, infinitely large and boundless.

In fact, this was a starry sky of unknown size. The Alliance internally referred to this place as the Abyss Star Territory. It was said that the ten largest space cracks on Blue Planet, that was, the space fissures, which were as famous as Heavenly Abyss, actually led to this Abyss Star Territory.

It was just that this Abyss Star Territory was too dangerous, and no one had ever fully explored it.

The deep space seemed to be empty, but in fact, there were all kinds of terrifying monsters cruising around. Even the heavenly king-level Pet Tamers could hardly guarantee their safety here, let alone explore this place freely.

Up until now, people still did not know whether there was intelligent life here or that intelligent life was such a monster. Anyway, they had been desperately drilling toward Blue Planet all these years.

Some people said that it was because the Star Abyss Territory had been eaten by these monsters and was about to be destroyed, so they were tirelessly attacking Blue Planet, wanting to obtain a new world.

It was rumored that great terror had befallen Heavenly Abyss, so these monsters were escaping out of fear. However, in fact, there was evidence of this. Because of emotion detection, most of the monsters that came out of the space cracks were found to be terrified or seemingly fleeing.

However, there was no way to find out what they were afraid of. Even if people looked at memories, they could not find anything and only knew that the fear was bone-deep.

“Alright, everyone. Turn on your concealment skills and prepare to go. Let’s be careful. It should be fine if we don’t go too deeply.”

The leader of Lu Shuang’s team said, preparing to begin exploring the surroundings.

Lu Shuang waved to Su Bai before he turned and followed the others away.

“Let’s go this way.” Standing on 1314, he looked at the gloomy starry sky in the distance.

After going some distance away from the others, he released Mewling Fox and Pipi Kraken.

Currently, the kraken had a body size of 100 meters and was on the verge of evolving again.

Ah Bai, this place looks too empty; there’s nothing here. The cub complained after they had flown around for a long time.

“This is normal; it’s like this in space,” he said. “The emptiness in the universe is very large, and there’s very little physical matter.”

His goal this time was to detect a broken planet about hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from them through Planet Eye. It was indeed a bit empty along the way, and he did not encounter any meteorites.

At this moment, Planet Eye suddenly reported to him. There is a meteorite floating over from ahead; it is about five kilometers. Would you like to go up and take a look?

“Is there life on it?” he asked.

I am unable to make a preliminary detection.

“Let’s go over and take a look. Mewling, Dragon, activate your perceptions and check the situation,” he instructed.

The pets agreed and headed toward the meteorite together.

After several preliminary detections, they determined that there should be no monsters on this meteorite.

As they approached it, the dino took the lead in jumping up. Su Bai took the pets and landed on the meteorite as well. The meteorite was only a few kilometers in diameter, and the gravity was too weak, so it was a little difficult to land on it. Fortunately, his pets lent him a helping hand.

“Roar!” Unfortunately, this looks ordinary except for it being a little old! Little Tyrant spread its claws.

Su Bai shared its perception and found that this was the case. Although he was somewhat disappointed, he understood that this was also normal. If he did not research it, meteorites like this would be useless to him, and if he did, its research value would not be that high.

“Let’s leave. It’s a pity that 1314 hasn’t evolved yet, and your detection ability isn’t strong enough, or else you would know this without us coming up.” Su Bai sighed and was about to leave.

“Onom!” Then can I eat it?

Floating in the starry space, the kraken smacked its mouth. It wanted to eat this even though it was just a stone.

“Okay, eat. Do it fast.” He glared at it.

“Onom!”

With a flick of its tail, the kraken cruised to the front of the meteorite. It opened its big mouth, and then a deep blue vortex spread; soon, this large meteorite was swallowed by the kraken.

After it was done eating the meteorite, they all continued moving forward. Along the way, their group encountered many meteorites of varying sizes; some of which were useful, while others were useless. As for the useless ones, he did not care and let the kraken swallow them.

“This meteorite is a bit weird; why does it look like it’s a part of something?”

Su Bai studied the young meteorite, which was directly over two kilometers long, and thought that it looked like a plate.

“Roar!” It’s useless and it can’t be eaten! Little Tyrant took a look and groaned.

“Onom!” The kraken motioned that it could eat the meteorite and would swallow it to show the dino. With a flick of its tail, it swam over and directly swallowed the meteorite.

Su Bai wanted to stop it, but after thinking about it, he let the kraken be. Anyway, there was no way to take the space rock back, and it might even experience some changes after swallowing it.

He had just checked with his golden finger that this was a meteorite with some miraculous power. It was said to be the stepping stone of an Eternally Miraculous Beauty.

However, the power of this miracle was too weak to collect, and he did not have the conditions for collecting it.

Just after the kraken swallowed the meteorite, Su Bai discovered something unusual. A golden spot drilled out of the meteorite and integrated into his pet’s body.

The kraken’s appearance then began to change drastically. First, its body shape soared from one hundred meters to three kilometers.

The blue and white light on its body dissipated to reveal black scale armor. In addition to the original white horn, two black long horns emerged from the top of its head, forming a line with the original horn.

Its fins also became extremely sharp. All in all, the kraken suddenly turned into a scorpion that Su Bai did not recognize at all. It now looked like a fighter machine.

Special evolution—Starry Omnivore Kraken!

[Name|Race]: Starry Omnivore Kraken|Monster

[Gender]: Male

[Level]: Middle-level servant

[Attribute]: Water, darkness, space, swallow

[Features|Passive]: Swallow (Exclusive feature. It does nothing but swallow and can swallow everything to gain the power of evolution.)

Star Water Curtain (Passive characteristic. This is manifested as the blue and white star streamer circulating on the surface of the kraken. There is always this layer of streamer that can offset half of the psychic attack; also, any psychic attack on its body has only half the effect.)

Darkness (Darkness characteristic. This was obtained through the power of miracles. Activate this characteristic to enter a ‘dark’ state, which is extremely conducive when hiding in dark places. Even a second-tier detection monster will be unable to find it. When the kraken is motionless, there is no way to find it without mastering detection skills or deploying some extremely special monsters.)

[Skills]: Water Splash, Water Wave, Dark Wave, Extreme Omnivore

[Restraint]: …

[Weaknesses]: There are no obvious weaknesses in its attributes, but its current attributes are slightly weak.

[Evolutionary direction]: Krakens do not have a fixed evolutionary direction. Its current possible evolutionary directions are Starry Spirit Shadow Kraken and Dark Devil Kraken respectively.

[Introduction]: Kraken King’s egg, full of origin, male, love to eat.

The universe is very big, it will only take one bite.

It was originally a Blue Sea Kraken, which had a high probability of evolving into a Mountain Sea Monster Kraken, but because it swallowed too many monsters and gained a bit of miraculous power, it had evolved and mutated into a Starry Omnivore Kraken.

Its Darkness characteristic can make it an unparalleled killer in the dark starry space.

*****

This evolution was unexpected for Su Bai. Looking at the three-kilometer-long terrifying guy in front of him, he was at a loss for words. This bit of miraculous power was so fierce.

Now, the kraken had directly surpassed the body length of the Blood Dragon by one kilometer and was the largest one among his pets. Although it was still extremely small when set against the starry space, it was already a large monster to him.

The most impressive thing about it was its Darkness characteristic, which was really formidable.

He wondered what change would the rest of Eternally Miraculous Beauty’s altar with its miraculous power, bring the Starry Omnivore Kraken if it swallowed that?

It was a pity that this was unlikely to happen. The starry sky was too big, so unless Lady Luck shone on him again, it would be almost impossible for him to locate the altar.

The dino, fox, and his other pets stared at the behemoth in front with frozen expressions.

Σ(°△°|||)_

“Roar!” I’ve become a small dino beside Brother Pipi Kraken. Are you really our sibling? Why did you become like this in an instant? Little Tyrant was in disbelief.

Purple Jade’s eyes also widened. F*ck! 

Mewling Fox, Little Blood Dragon, and Planet Eye were all at a loss for words, too.

“Onom!” Ah Bai, I’ve become stronger! The Starry Omnivore Kraken looked at him and flicked its tail.

“…No, you’re still a warlord scum. Quickly turn on your Darkness feature and let’s set off. You can eat anything you like on our way.” He rolled his eyes out of anger. Who would have thought that such a terrifying behemoth would not even be at the commander grade?

He directly led his other pets to land on the kraken’s back after it activated the Darkness feature. Meanwhile, Planet Eye flew out to check the situation ahead.

Although the Darkness characteristic was impressive, he could not stand that the kraken was still only a warlord. At present, they could at most remain undiscovered by monarch monsters. If there was an emperor monster, they could be discovered.

Planet Eye would detect the situation and would stop and stay still upon finding an unknown risk. The immobility of the Darkness skill was truly amazing. As long as there was no monster with detection skills, it would remain undetected.

This might be the horror of the power of miracle; no wonder so many people were keen on finding the Eternally Miraculous Beauty.

Su Bai understood now. A bit of this miraculous power was already so terrifying, so it would be even more formidable if he obtained the entire Eternally Miraculous Beauty.

However, he had never heard of a Pet Tamer having seen the Eternally Miraculous Beauty.

No, it should be said that no one had seen the four creation pets. At most, they had seen their altars and statues.

Along the way, they encountered many meteorites. Most of them entered the Starry Omnivore Kraken’s stomach. Some contained spirit crystals or source crystals, and these were collected by Su Bai. All the energy light clusters were given to his pets to strengthen their skills.

At present, the dino’s Fireball skill, the cub’s Vine Whip, the fox’s Power of Mind, the dragon’s Crush Claw, and the kraken’s Water Splash had strengthened.

Planet Eye had not tried it yet, and Su Bai currently did not know which of its skill should be strengthened…

However, it should be a basic skill if nothing went wrong. Su Bai had become accustomed to this. He was already fortunate enough to have a plug-in and could not ask for too much.

Ten days passed, and he realized that he had not reached his destination yet.

Something is wrong with the group of monsters ahead. They seem to have humans among them.

As he sent a message to Chen Ruoxue, Planet Eye passed this message to him.

“Humans? Could it be another team?” he murmured. In the vast starry space, the probability of encountering other human teams was really harder than winning the 100 million lottery.

“Don’t let them find us; check what they’re doing,” he instructed.

“Okay, I understand.”

He first stopped his kraken before passing a half-eaten canned fruit to the cub for it to hold. He then shared Planet Eye’s perception and checked the situation.

“Howl!” Open your mouth, I’ll feed you! The cub grabbed the can with its spiritual power and fed him.

Su Bai watched the situation while he ate.

After seeing everything clearly, he was dazed for a long time and then wondered aloud, “Are they… looking for death?”
