Forty Millenniums of Cultivation-Chapter 3414: Untitled

There was both shame and confusion on Black Jack’s face. Deep inside his eyes that were so bloodshot that they were about to explode, two rays of hope beamed out, as if a drowning man who had been mired in a swamp finally saw a hand that was reaching for him.

“You are crazy.”

But Jade whispered to Theresa, “According to my calculations…”

“Enough!”

Before it could finish, Theresa interrupted it coldly. “There are two things in the world that can never be calculated. Firstly, the number of stars in the universe. Secondly, the pride of a man!

“Jade, just prepare to run away, but I have to stay and fight side by side with this man!”

“Teresa…”

Tears were blinking in Princess Summer’s eyes. She seemed to understand something and stopped her sisters from coming close. She looked at Theresa in expectation.

Theresa turned around and grinned at her. Then she opened her arms and walked toward Black Jack, who was waving his tentacles and struggling.

“Come on. Whatever the real you is, I choose to believe in you,” she said to Black Jack solemnly.

Black Jack’s expression was extremely complicated.

The moment his left hand reached for Theresa, his right hand slapped it away.

One of the tentacles opened its bloody mouth, only to be bitten by another bloody mouth.

The bones all over his body were emitting cracking sounds, as if two opposing forces were colliding inside his body, making him suffer the pain of his bones breaking, his veins breaking, and his flesh exploding.

Finally, Theresa reached Black Jack.

“What—what are you doing? I can’t control myself any longer. Go away! I can’t!” Black Jack screamed.

“No, you can. If you are a man, don’t say you can’t!” Theresa said firmly.

“I—I’m serious…”

Black Jack’s eyeballs were bulging, and veins were popping up on his face. His face was extremely hideous. He watched more than ten tentacles tangling in front of him and forming a sharp bone blade at the tip, but he could do nothing to stop them.

“Ah Xia, what should we do?”

Faced with Black Jack’s hideousness and Theresa’s craziness, the sisters of the harem were in a mess, too. They knew that Princess Summer and Theresa must’ve had a fortuitous encounter just now and regarded Princess Summer as their pillar of support.

“Right now, we can only choose to believe them.

Princess Summer wanted to lunge forward and rescue Theresa, too, but she knew that Theresa was right. With tears in her eyes, she said, “Believe in Theresa and Black Jack. Gather your strength and prepare for battle!”

Shua!

With a flash of his saber, the bone blade fell from the sky like the sickle of death and pierced deep into Theresa’s chest. The bloody tip of the blade protruded out of her back, only half an inch away from her heart.

“Ah!”

The girls of the Harem all exclaimed.

“What—”

Black Jack could not believe his eyes, either. He was so ashamed that he felt he had made a terrible mistake.

The smile on Theresa’s face and the brilliance in her eyes remained unchanged. She continued encouraging him in the same tone. “It doesn’t matter. There are always winners and losers in a battle. If this is the final outcome, at least we’ve fought a great battle before!”

“Teresa… Why are you… Ah… Ahhhhhh!”

There was extreme shame and fury on Black Jack’s face, as if ten thousand volcanoes had erupted on his face, unleashing a furious energy beyond description.

“I told you to stop, I f*cking told you to stop, you damned octopus!”

He roared at the depths of his soul in an inhuman voice, “I… am not… the Lord of Swallowing. I am… Jack Thunder!”

Shua!

The blood-stained bone blade was pulled out of Theresa’s chest. Controlled by the immense strength, it changed its direction inch by inch and pierced into Black Jack’s own chest brutally.

“Black Jack…”

Holding her chest, Theresa and her sisters looked at Black Jack in bewilderment.

Black Jack’s face was mixed with pain and pleasure. He roared and cut off the tentacle that was controlling the bone blade, before he pulled the bone blade out.

“Pu!”

Suddenly, blood spurted out like arrows.

What was weird was that the blood that he spurted out was emitting bright gold brightness. The moment it touched the air, it turned into a bloody mist and floated in midair for a long time.

The spurting of blood lasted for a long time and even exceeded the limits of the human body. In the end, what was spurted out was not blood but clusters of bright gold mist, ripples, or pure energy.

The energy ripples squeaked and danced, condensing into a weird, translucent, bright gold octopus in midair.

It was like a hermit crab that had just been driven out of its shell or an earthworm that had been exposed to the scorching sun. It seemed somewhat terrified and confused.

It was hard to believe that a weakling such as ‘Jack Thunder’ could break free from its control and drive it out by force.

“This is the true face of the Devourer. Black Jack, you did it!” exclaimed Theresa.

Right now, without the enhancement of the devouring beast, Black Jack was much thinner than before. He was dry and hunched, and his face was plain. His face was pale, and he staggered and fell backward.

Despite the excruciating pain in her chest, Theresa hurried to stop him.

“I…”

Black Jack’s vision was almost entirely occupied by Theresa’s pectoral muscles. He was no longer as arrogant and domineering as before. Instead, he became shy, not knowing where to look. “Am I ugly?”

“Who says so?”

Theresa laughed. “Not as ugly as you described. You are, uh, much more handsome than the hero named Li from my hometown!”

“Is that so?”

Black Jack seemed to be back to life again. He asked expectantly, “Then, Miss Theresa, is it possible for a beautiful girl such as yourself to fall in love with such a mediocre me?”

“…”

Theresa took a deep breath and said, “Don’t be silly, Black Jack. You are not mediocre at all. You’ve just accomplished an earthshaking feat. You are the greatest hero in everyone’s heart. Rest assured. It won’t be long before your glorious deeds spread across the entire Emerald Continent. By then, many girls will be hundreds of times more beautiful than me. I love you to death!”

His words made Black Jack’s fire of life burn brighter and brighter.

He fell blissfully into Theresa’s warm and soft embrace.

“You!”

The Devourer that had been driven out of Black Jack’s body, on the other hand, roared in a shocking voice, “You think you can destroy me just like that? How naïve you are! I’m going to—”

Hardly had he finished his sentence when he was hit by a fireball.

BOOM!

The raging flames broke one of its energy tentacles and threw it into chaos during the collision of the ripples.

“Sisters, the pest has revealed itself. It’s our turn now.”

Hela, the dragoness, and Natasha, the leader of the mercenary group, stared at the Devourer with glittering eyes. “Be careful. It is a body of pure energy. Ordinary blades cannot hurt it. Use your magic to deal with it!”
