CHAPTER TEXT:
The Guardian Dragon Beast, Mythical Realm
As the Thunder Flame Giant Beast watched the silver fish excitedly, the Deep Sea Dragon Turtle also crawled down.
Looking at it, the Thunder Flame Giant Beast let out a low growl and roared: "Roar!! I'll take 40%, you take 10%."
To make it understand the difference between four and one, the Thunder Flame Giant Beast extended its claws, gesturing four fingers with one hand and one middle finger with the other.
"Roar!! Hmm, Thunder, you eat more, I eat one, that’s fine." The Deep Sea Dragon Turtle nodded excitedly, showing no sign of feeling shortchanged.
In its mind, the ferocious Thunder Flame eating everything was no big deal; after all, it couldn't fight back and dared not say anything. Just giving it a portion was already pretty good.
"Roar!! Don't eat the little ones; leave them to breed." The Thunder Flame Giant Beast reminded.
"Roar!! I know, I know, if we eat them all, they’ll be gone."
Saying this, the Deep Sea Dragon Turtle excitedly charged forward, its massive mouth approaching a coral that was more than ten meters high and slightly opening. Instantly, a powerful suction force emanated.
Under this suction, the surrounding water surged, sweeping in over a dozen silver fish into its mouth.
As a deep-sea giant beast, even without the ability to control water, once it evolved to the level of the Thunder Flame Giant Beast and the Dragon Turtle, it could influence the surrounding seawater with its own will and strength.
Of course, this ability to control ordinary water currents didn’t help in combat; it was just useful for brushing teeth.
As the Deep Sea Dragon Turtle began to eat, the Thunder Flame Giant Beast also swam over, its ferocious jaws creating a massive suction each time they opened, swallowing the silver fish hiding among the corals.
With each silver fish rich in energy consumed, the energy within the Thunder Flame Giant Beast, which had previously been depleted, surged wildly.
The flames that had extinguished on its surface reignited, arcs of dazzling electricity leaped along its back fins, and its aura grew increasingly terrifying.
Moreover, these silver fish seemed to have a symbiotic relationship with the glowing corals.
Even with two giant beasts devouring them frantically, the fish merely dove into the coral crevices to hide, showing no intention of swimming out of the valley.
Soon, after nearly cleaning out one corner of the valley of silver fish, the Deep Sea Dragon Turtle stopped, its yellow energy, which was already a meter thick, swelling.
Meanwhile, the Thunder Flame Giant Beast continued to scour the area. Just as it estimated that it had devoured nearly three thousand silver fish and its energy had doubled, a hint of regret appeared in its eyes.
It had reached its limit.
Just like when it consumed the blue pearls earlier, these resources had an absorption limit, or rather, a limit to the enhancement of the resources themselves.
Earlier, when it swallowed up to fifteen hundred silver fish, the effect had gradually weakened, diminishing to the point that eating one silver fish now only yielded one-tenth of the effect.
However, while the enhancement limit slowed down, the energy replenishment characteristic remained.
No wonder that gray giant beast hadn’t eaten all the silver fish; it must have reached its limit of enhancement long ago.
As for why it was guarding this area, it was undoubtedly due to long-term consumption, slowly accumulating energy, which still had a slow growth rate, and it could replenish its energy.
Thus, even though the effect slowed down, the Thunder Flame Giant Beast continued to devour.
It wasn’t until it had swept from one side of the valley to the other, consuming over four thousand adult silver fish, that it finally stopped.
At this point, its energy had increased by 2.2 times, and the blazing flames on its body burned fiercely, boiling the surrounding seawater for dozens of meters.
After finishing off those silver fish, the Thunder Flame Giant Beast turned its gaze to the corpse of the gray giant beast.
