Chapter 36 - Nine Metamorphoses of Spirit Transformation!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Hearing Chu Feng's questions, the Ingesting Nightmare Beast immediately cried out,
"Master, a King had been born among us in the recent hundred years. I am an offspring of the King."
Chu Feng raised an eyebrow upon hearing those words.
He really could not imagine how the Ingesting Nightmare Beasts reproduced.
He had thought that they were formed naturally.
These fellows had no physical form.
Chu Feng really could not imagine how they could reproduce.
Without saying anything, he continued to listen to the voice of the Ingesting Nightmare Beast.
"The King is very powerful. I don't know the true strength of the King, but I've seen him swiftly kill a Grade A creature which had wanted to devour us."
Hearing those words, Chu Feng frowned and said seriously, "Could your king be a Grade A+?"
If it was a Grade A+, Chu Feng would definitely turn around and stay as far away as he could.
He could not afford to provoke a Grade A+.
The Ingesting Nightmare Beast hurriedly shook its head.
"No, our King is far from shedding its mortal form and transforming into a spirit."
Chu Feng heaved a sigh of relief.
"How many times has it metamorphosed?"
Since the King of the Ingesting Nightmare Beast could kill a Grade A creature swiftly, it certainly would not be an ordinary Grade A creature like the Demon Devouring Blood-Crown Beast King.
It might have already evolved several times.
The difference between a Grade A+ creature and a Grade A creature was like the difference between clouds in the sky and mud on the ground.
Hence, it would be impossible for it to ascend to the heavens in just a single step.
Therefore, there were the Nine Metamorphoses of Spirit Transformation.
Each metamorphosis was a sublimation of the essence of life, one step closer to Grade A+.
Its strength would also increase tremendously.
In the end, it would shed its mortal form and reach a higher level of existence.
The Ingesting Nightmare Beast seemed to understand the meaning behind Chu Feng's words.
After a long while, it said hesitantly, "I know that the soul of the King's Ingesting Nightmare has already evolved six times and has already started to condense soul crystals."
"Hiss…"
Chu Feng gasped.
This meant that the Ingesting Nightmare Beast King was at least a 6th-stage Spirit Transformation Grade A creature!
Chu Feng really wanted to turn around and leave.
Although it was not Grade A+, it was an existence which could kill Chu Feng with a single slap.
There was no difference.
With Chu Feng's current strength, he was barely able to contend against one with the strength at 1st-stage Spirit Transformation.
It would be a bit of a struggle to deal with one at 2nd-stage Spirit Transformation.
Provoking such a fellow, unless he used the Blazing Wings of the Sky to move at great speed constantly and stay far away, otherwise, the moment he stopped, the Ingesting Nightmare Beast King could seize the opportunity.
A hallucination was enough to trap Chu Feng in an illusion.
Then, he could only wait for death.
After all, the Ingesting Nightmare Beasts were not stupid creatures like the Demon Devouring Blood-Crown Beast King.
They were very smart.
And they could fly, although not very fast.
In short, there was a high chance that he would die.
The risk was extremely high.
Chu Feng already had the intention to retreat.
Although the Ingesting Nightmare Beast King was extremely precious, it was not more precious than his own life.
Chu Feng knew that there were still many precious pet beasts. There was no need for him to get himself killed for one.
However, if he could successfully subdue the Ingesting Nightmare Beast King, it would be equivalent to having a 6th-stage Spirit Transformation Grade A beast with him.
In that case, wouldn't he be able to do whatever he wanted?
Unfortunately, Chu Feng could only think about it.
Just when Chu Feng was planning to give up, the Ingesting Nightmare Beast asked anxiously,
"Master, can we hurry to the second level of the Abyss as soon as possible? The King sent news earlier that he had discovered an extraordinary treasure in a treacherous place. However, it seemed that the Ground Demon Tribe had found out. He is severely injured and currently trying to escape.
"Previously, I had desperately wanted to head to the second level of the Abyss because I wanted to find the King and see if I could help him."
Hearing those words, Chu Feng's eyes lit up.
"The Ingesting Nightmare Beast King is injured?
"And there is a treasure?
He was tempted.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Even if he could not subdue it, it would be good to sabotage the Ground Demon Tribe.
His hatred for the demon tribes of the Abyss had already been deeply engraved into Chu Feng's bones.

The Ground Demon Tribe was one of the many demon tribes of the Abyss.
Bloodthirsty and brutal, the tribe was very powerful.
In his previous life, it was one of the main forces that attacked Earth.
"Master…"
The Ingesting Nightmare Beast's voice grew increasingly anxious.
A subdued pet beast could still maintain its self-awareness, but its life was in the hands of the one who had subdued it.
Therefore, the Ingesting Nightmare Beast still had feelings for the Ingesting Nightmare Beast King.
After all, it was like a parent to it.
Chu Feng could also understand.
It was just that he could not just head to the second level hastily.
He was well aware of the various dangers in the second level.
If one were to say that the dangers of the first level mainly came from various natural environments and ferocious beasts, from the second level down,danger often came from intelligent life!
It was a chaotic and bloody world.
The demon tribes dominated, and all other groups were slaves.
However, there were no humans!
Because in the last tribulation, the ancient human race had defended Earth!
Although they had paid a terrible price, at least humans were not slaves!
If he were to rashly proceed to the second level, Chu Feng would face the pursuit of the entire Abyss.
To head to the second level, he still needed to make many preparations.
He looked at the anxious Ingesting Nightmare Beast.
Chu Feng suddenly came to a decision.
"Little Ingesting Nightmare, will you be of any help if you find the Ingesting Nightmare Beast King? You are only a Grade B!"
The Ingesting Nightmare Beast hurriedly explained,
"Master, I'll be of help! All of us Ingesting Nightmare Beasts have a special attribute. The souls of our Ingesting Nightmares can fuse with each other and create a catalytic effect.
"If we fuse with the King, the strength of our King will skyrocket instantly. He might even be able to kill that Ground Demon Tribe. Hence, we have all received the summon by our King this time."
As Chu Feng listened, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind.
If his Ingesting Nightmare Beast, which he had already had a soul contract with, were to fuse with its King, could the power of the contract also take effect on the Ingesting Nightmare Beast King?
If possible, wouldn't that mean he could subdue the Ingesting Nightmare Beast King without any effort?
Thinking of this, Chu Feng made up his mind.
"Little Ingesting Nightmare, I can't rush to the second level in such a hurry. That place is too dangerous for me."
Chu Feng could sense that the fellow instantly became extremely downcast after hearing his words.
It pursed its lips.
The Ingesting Nightmare Beasts were quite united.
"Listen to me first. I need to make some preparations. Go and find the Ingesting Nightmare Beast King first. When I'm ready, I'll go and find you immediately."
"Really?!"
The mist around the Ingesting Nightmare Beast began to ripple in excitement.
It wore its heart on its sleeve, and was no different from a human child.
Chu Feng nodded.
"I'll send you to the bottom of Fallen Demon Cliff. You should be careful. Attach yourself to me first."
The Ingesting Nightmare Beast was invisible and colorless.
Chu Feng was unable to grasp it either.
He could only let the little fellow attach itself to him.
Then, the Blazing Wings of the Sky appeared behind him. As the wings flapped, he flew rapidly toward the bottom of Fallen Demon Cliff.
"M-Master, you are so fast! Much faster than the King! Master is obviously only a Grade C creature…"

He could not be bothered to explain to the Ingesting Nightmare Beast.
Watching the little fellow struggled and made it through the huge seal at the bottom of the cliff,
Chu Feng took off into the air again at great speed.
If he wanted to enter the second level of the Abyss, he had to make a lot of preparations.
Firstly, it seemed that he would have to make a trip back to Earth.
Buy some treasures!
He glanced at the points balance.
A total of 587,000 points!
A large number of points!
He could choose whatever he wanted now.
There were also the [Supernatural Power Golden Ranking List] and the [Supernatural Weapon Golden Ranking List]. These points should be enough to exchange for a decent Supernatural Ability and Weapon.
Chu Feng was truly unaccustomed to using his fists all the time.
