I'm only three years old, how could it be a world-ending catastrophe?

Jiang Luo put her hands in the pockets of her down jacket, watched the figures scattering and running away, tilted her head, and showed a childlike confusion on her face.

Behind him.

Golden light shot into the sky.

"roar--"

A dragon's roar, capable of piercing the clouds and splitting rocks, resounded throughout the entire Abyss of Nothingness.

The enormous dragon Jiahao, covered in golden scales, appeared out of thin air.

It hovered above the small town, its enormous dragon wings spread out, almost obscuring half the sky.

The invisible dragon's might, like a heavy mountain, crashed down.

The fleeing "residents" collapsed to the ground, unable to move, under the terrifying pressure.

The entire outer city was completely sealed off.

It turned into a... huge, open-air dining table.

Jiang Luo nodded in satisfaction.

Jiahao's tool dragon is quite useful.

Then, with his short legs and hands still in his pockets, he began his leisurely "meal" with an air of nonchalance.

He walked up to the little boy who had first found him and was yelling that he would bite him to death.

At this moment, the little boy also revealed the true form of the calamity.

It was a tiny demon, no bigger than a palm, completely black, with a pair of bat wings.

It lay paralyzed on the ground, watching Jiang Luo approach step by step, trembling with fear, unable to even cry, only able to make "ee-yah-yah" sounds of begging for mercy.

Jiang Luo crouched down, stretched out her fingers, and pinched one of its wings.

The little devil let out a piercing scream.

Jiang Luo picked it up as if it were a toy and waved it in front of her.

"Weren't you quite arrogant just now?"

"You want your dog to kill me?"

The little devil was so frightened that he shook his head frantically, tears and snot streaming down his face.

"never mind."

Jiang Luo curled her lip, too lazy to bother with such a small thing.

He opened his mouth, and with a gulp, swallowed the little devil whole.

A faint, milky-scented energy dissipated within my body.

Jiang Luo smacked her lips.

The taste was alright.

Just like... Want Want Milk Candy.

He stood up, his gaze falling again on the little boy's mother not far away.

The woman also revealed her true form, a monster with eight spider legs, who was now lying on the ground, looking at Jiang Luo with an extremely venomous gaze.

"You demon! The king will not let you get away with this!"

She uttered a vicious curse.

Jiang Luo tilted her head.

"oh."

He responded, and then in a flash, he appeared in front of the Spider Woman.

He reached out and, among the eight constantly flailing limbs, precisely grabbed her head.

A gentle pinch.

boom!

Her body quickly withered and shrank, turning into a slightly larger black ball.

Jiang Luo caught the ball and threw it into his mouth again.

This time it's strawberry flavored.

Okay.

For the next few days, the entire street, and even the entire outer city, became Jiang Luo's personal buffet restaurant.

He strolled leisurely down the street like a child browsing a supermarket.

If you see one that looks good, go over and shape it into a ball, then taste it.

In an instant, screams, pleas for mercy, and curses rose and fell.

But soon, these voices grew weaker and fewer.

Jiang Luo ate while smacking her lips and commenting.

"Hmm, this one is orange flavored, and it's a bit sour."

"This... why does it taste like stinky tofu? Ugh, it's awful."

"Wow, this is chocolate flavored, it's delicious!"

A dozen minutes later.

The entire outer city returned to a deathly silence.

The streets were deserted.

Only those torn gray robes still fluttered in the cold wind.

Jiang Luo let out a burp and patted his slightly bulging belly.

I'm a little full.

but……

It's still edible!

only……

The vast majority are only B-level or even C-level calamities, with impure and mixed energy, providing very limited energy.

It's like eating a bunch of junk food that has no nutritional value.

Just as Jiang Luo was thinking this...

He suddenly felt something deeper within the city.

A surge of incredibly powerful and pure life energy, which made his heart pound, was slowly pulsating.

That energy was like a lighthouse in the dark night, incredibly clear and incredibly alluring.

It's a million times more delicious than the small fish and shrimp he just ate!

Jiang Luo's eyes lit up instantly.

He raised his head and looked toward the inner city, which was shrouded in an even thicker black fog.

Her little face was filled with undisguised anticipation.

The appetizers...are finished.

It's time for the main course!

……

at the same time.

The Abyss of Nothingness, the Inner City.

Inside a magnificent and solemn temple built entirely of black stone.

In the center of the temple's main hall, a huge water mirror floats.

The water mirror clearly reflected everything that was happening in the outer city.

From the moment Jiang Luo shattered the "Void Forbidden Zone" with a single punch, to the moment he devoured all the Calamity Bloodline descendants in the entire outer city like candy beans.

The entire process was flawless.

Before the water mirror, several men and women with elegant demeanors, dressed in luxurious robes, calmly watched all of this.

Their appearance is no different from that of ordinary people outside, and can even be described as exceptionally handsome.

But without exception, all of them had deep, emotionless dark gold eyes.

They are the true core members of the Zhou family.

"Father, these Calamity Bloodlines kept in captivity in the outer city are still too useless."

A handsome young man, who looked to be only in his early twenties, looked at Jiang Luo's hearty meal reflected in the water mirror and curled his lip in disdain.

"We can't even handle this brat who just popped up out of nowhere, and he still consumes so many of our resources every year."

"I think it's time to clean out a bunch of them and replace them with some new ones."

The middle-aged man, referred to as "father," simply waved his hand dismissively upon hearing this.

He is Zhou Yuan, the current head of the Zhou family, an old monster who has lived for over two hundred years and whose strength is unfathomable.

He looked at the small figure in the water mirror, his face showing no anger or fluctuation, but rather filled with increasingly intense interest.

"No."

Zhou Yuan's voice was calm, "It's not that those blood descendants are too weak, but that this brat is quite interesting."

"He was actually able to devour the power of calamity, and in such a... primitive, such direct way."

"This ability is simply unheard of."

Having lived for so long, he has witnessed countless bizarre abilities and studied countless powerful calamities.

But I have never seen or heard of anyone who could devour the very source of calamity like this child.

This was beyond his understanding of the power system of this world.

"A perfect, unknown experimental subject full of research value."

A near-fanatical light gleamed in Zhou Yuan's eyes.

Just then.

A subordinate dressed in black rushed in from outside the hall, knelt on one knee, and respectfully reported: "Lord Yuan, the chief sacrifice of the Holy Sacrifice... that woman, is very emotionally unstable and is trying to break the seal."

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible glint of cold light flashed in Zhou Yuan's eyes.

"Increase the pressure on her; we cannot allow any mistakes to happen before the holy ceremony begins."

"yes!"

The subordinate accepted the order and was about to leave.

Zhou Yuan called out to him again.

"Furthermore... pass down my order: ignore the outer city."

"Let this brat run wild."

The subordinate was taken aback, somewhat puzzled, but still respectfully replied, "Yes, Lord Yuan."

After the subordinates have left.

Zhou Yuan's gaze returned to the water mirror, a cold, knowing smile playing on his lips.

"Father, you mean to..."

The young man beside him seemed to have guessed his father's intentions.

Zhou Yuan nodded, his voice tinged with amusement.

"I want to see just how far this little thing can go."

"If he's strong enough..."

"Then perhaps he can become a 'key' that's even more useful than that woman."

"A key... used to deplete the King's Seal, to pave the final way for our final sacred sacrifice."
