Chapter 171: Go And Eat It!
"Don't celebrate just yet, little buddy. You see that bisected corpse over there?" He asked with a small smile as he pointed at the split-in-half corpse of the first Goblin Ancestor.
"Mhmu!?" It knew where this conversation was going, and it couldn't be any more excited!
"Go and eat it, little Emu."
He gave it the go-ahead, and Emu was very similar to its companion when it came to free meals!
"Mhmu!"
It practically teleported over to the bisected Goblin Ancestor corpse with a voracious look on its face.
OOOM!
Its body distorted and twisted to insane degrees as it opened itself to a few meters in diameter before it consumed the Goblin Ancestor in one chomp!
It wore a satisfied look after devouring the first Goblin Ancestor. Power coursed through its body as its strength was augmented thousands of times over in an instant!
Emu now had the strength of something that had been firmly planted in the Early-Void Refining Realm! A strength that was in a completely different league when compared to before.
"...Hmm.." Azmond decided to take this chance to gloss over the new stat interface for Emu.
A bright, brilliant blue and gold light flashed as a new and improved interface for his Discerning Quantum Eye Skill appeared in clear view.
[Emu: {[Tier 0: Level 135, {[Stats: Strength: 6456, Defense: 6568, Qi: 8656]}, {[Development Phase: Adult]}
==<{[Main Abilities]}>==
{[Body Morph: Can morph into the shape of anything imaginable (stats of what it morphs into increase with every level or exterior amplification of 'Emu')]}
{[Unlimited Devour: Can devour and assimilate anything in existence}]
{[Quantum Katana Flux: Allows the user (Emu) to transform into a katana that has the ability to evolve along with the user (Emu). It can also evolve through the user's companion (Azmond) who gave this skill the quality of 'Quantum'.
The 'Quantum' quality only works when Azmond is actively wielding the user (Emu)]}
{[Other Skills: Possesses the entire life's accumulations of every existence it consumes and assimilates, so the number of skills it possesses is already incalculable.]}
==<{[Description]}>==
Existence-Bonded-Companion of the User of the 'Boundless System'. Origin: ????, Background: ????, Potential: ???]
...
"Ahhh Emu's interface is looking more and more grandiose with each passing day. I wouldn't be surprised if Emu suddenly acquired a system interface even more overpowered than mine at this rate," muttered Azmond as he scanned over the new stats and skills that Emu now possessed.
Emu's interface looked more and more grandiose with each passing day.
"This part is a little interesting," he said while pointing his finger to the 'Quantum Katana Flux' skill.
"Does this mean that Emu can indirectly use the quality of 'Quantum' as long as I'm holding onto its 'Katana Form'?" He began with a look of pondering.
"If so, then this could be quite advantageous for when we encounter enemies who don't have any resistance against the only derivative 'Space Law' that is connected to the 'Quantum Law'. At least, that is the only 'Law' I have gained from the 'Quantum Law' so far."
He brooded over the subject for a moment before deciding whether or not he should take a look at his own System Interface.
However, he quickly opted against it. After all, he still had the green piggy over there to take care of first.
"..." His gaze traveled to an undisclosed mountaintop located a few thousand miles away.
'Welp, time to go and 'clean up' that one as well.'
His thoughts faded out as he moved forward at supersonic speeds before reaching the spot GrimSoul was planted into.
His hand stretched out as he grabbed the face of GrimSoul before rebounding himself off the mountain.
BOOooOOOM!
His stalwart figure made it back to where he began as he took the disfigured body of GrimSoul and threw him to Emu.
"You want some more, Little Emu?" He asked with a kind smile.
Emu's eyes instantly began to shine as he looked at him like he was the nicest man to ever live!
"Mhmu!" It squeaked before devouring the still alive body of GrimSoul in one big bite.
However, before Emu could fully devour the existence of GrimSoul, Azmond gave out a simple command.
"Make sure to slowly assimilate this one, Emu. I want him to suffer for as long as you can make it last," he said with a frosty tone.
"Mhmu?" Although Emu couldn't understand the reasoning behind asking Emu to do such a thing, it still complied with what he asked of it.
After all, it was only thanks to the nicest companion ever that he was able to acquire such a nice assortment of food!
It swallowed the alive 'corpse' of GrimSoul with one quick movement before letting his body dissolve inside a small 'pocket space' that lay within its body. Although neither Emu nor Azmond could ascertain where this 'pocket space' was, they both knew about it.
However, Azmond only learned about it after leveling his soul bond with Emu to level 2. Something that he hasn't fully delved into yet.
He decided he would take a look at his system in a few days, after he got the exp from GrimSoul.
That's right, he was able to acquire the exp from all the monsters that Emu killed and consumed!
He didn't understand how this worked either, considering that Emu devoured the entire existence of the things it devoured. But it just did
The world of cultivation was like that sometimes.
Full of a plethora of unknowns and unexplainable variables.
The stolid figure of Azmond walked over to the two beauties waiting for him with anxious expressions.
He had been fighting for a day straight; a day of waiting with bated breath, gauging his well-being, must've been a nerve-wracking experience for them. So he could honestly understand what they were feeling.
