Swish! Swish!
The metal ball was incredibly fast, like a golden lightning bolt, flying wildly through the cave. The four of them couldn't stop it in time.
"Stay here!"
Lu Ming unleashed the Domination Technique, enveloping the area, and grabbed at the metal ball.
The metal ball seemed somewhat frightened, and in a flash, it retreated at top speed.
Over there was Xie Nianjun, who was about to grab the metal ball with her delicate hand.
However, the metal ball suddenly expanded rapidly, becoming a large ball several meters in diameter, and collided with Xie Nianjun's palm.
boom!
With a loud roar, Xie Nianjun's body jolted and she was thrown backward.
"What astonishing power!"
Everyone was shocked.
Although Xie Nianjun's cultivation level was only at the first level of the Void God Realm, her divine power was strong enough to contend with a powerhouse at the fourth level of the Void God Realm, and she was actually knocked back by the metal ball.
However, the metal ball was also knocked back by Xie Nianjun and rushed towards Tong Xier.
Tong Xi'er's expression changed. She didn't have Xie Nianjun's power. A long sword appeared in her hand, and she thrust it towards the metal ball.
However, at this moment, an astonishing scene unfolded. Suddenly, a huge mouth appeared on the smooth surface of the metal sphere, with golden metal forming fangs. The mouth snapped at Tong Xi'er's longsword.
With a snap, Tong Xi'er's longsword was bitten off, and the metal ball swallowed the first part, crunching away at it.
"this..."
Lu Ming and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
Tong Xi'er's longsword was a divine weapon. Although it was only a low-grade first-tier divine weapon, it was extremely hard. Now, it was actually bitten in half by the metal ball and then eaten.
This metal ball is so weird.
What left them speechless was that
At this moment, a pair of eyes appeared on the metal sphere's huge mouth, the eyes were squinted, and it looked like it was enjoying itself.
A lump of intelligent metal!
A thought crossed their minds.
This is a treasure! It's absolutely a treasure. A lump of metal has actually developed sentience. It's truly extraordinary.
Swish! Swish!
The group moved again, rushing towards the metal sphere.
However, this metal ball was very slippery and intelligent. It seemed to realize that Tong Xi'er was the weakest among the four, and it charged directly at Tong Xi'er.
Tong Xi'er no longer dared to use the divine weapon to attack, and could only use her divine power to wrap around the metal ball.
However, the metal ball's power was astonishing. With a single impact, it knocked away Tong Xi'er's divine power. Tong Xi'er's delicate body trembled, and she was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Her strength was simply insufficient to fight against this metal sphere.
However, Lu Ming arrived just in time. With a wave of his hand, the power of the Dominator formed a giant hand and reached out to grab the metal sphere.
The metal sphere seemed genuinely terrified of the domineering power, its eyes filled with fear as it retreated rapidly.
"Lu Ming, this metal sphere seems to be afraid of your domineering power. I'll trap it, you grab it!"
Xie Nianqing shouted, her whole body shrouded in black light, and black lotus flowers emerged, pressing down on the metal sphere.
On the other side, Xie Nianjun also went all out, and snow-white lotus flowers appeared, pressing down on the metal ball.
Whoosh!
The metal ball rushed towards Xie Nianqing and collided with the black lotus.
Bang! Bang!...
The lotus flowers kept exploding, but after each explosion, even more lotus flowers emerged, and the metal sphere was directly blocked.
Lu Ming charged forward, grabbing with both hands, forming a large net with the power of dominion, enveloping the metal sphere.
The metal sphere was directly enveloped by the net of the domineering power.
It struggled and thrashed inside, but strangely, it couldn't break free from the vast net formed by the power of domination.
Lu Ming began to shrink his domineering power, and the large net became smaller.
In the end, the metal ball calmed down and stayed there, motionless.
Finally, Lu Ming grabbed the metal ball in his hand.
"So heavy!"
When Lu Ming grabbed the metal ball, he almost dropped it on the ground.
This was extremely astonishing. Although all matter in the primordial universe was incomparable to that of the Celestial Realm and its mass was many times greater, Lu Ming almost couldn't hold onto such a metal sphere. Its weight was estimated to exceed that of several mountains.
Just as Lu Ming was about to examine it closely, a sharp spike suddenly emerged from the metal ball. This spike was extremely sharp and pierced through the Dominator's Power covering Lu Ming's hand, breaking through Lu Ming's skin. A trickle of blood flowed onto the metal ball.
Lu Ming was startled and almost threw the metal ball away. Fortunately, the metal ball did not continue to move, and the trace of blood seeped into the metal ball and disappeared.
A faint, dark red light flashed across the metal sphere, disappearing in an instant.
At this moment, Lu Ming actually felt that the metal ball had become lighter, as if it had no weight at all.
"This is..."
Lu Ming was somewhat stunned.
"Lu Ming, it seems you two are destined to be together, and it has recognized you as its master!"
Xie Nianjun walked over and said, a hint of envy showing in her eyes.
There aren't many things that Xie Nianjun can envy.
"You've acknowledged me as your master?"
Lu Ming was also somewhat stunned.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a metallic life form born from the very origin of heaven and earth. Such metallic life forms are rare even in the vast primordial universe, making them extremely precious. The fact that it recognizes you as its master means that you are destined to be together. If you nurture it well in the future, it may become a great help to you!"
Xie Nianjun said.
Beside him, Xie Nianqing showed a look of joy.
Tong Xier showed a hint of envy, but this time, she was hardly able to help. It was entirely Lu Ming and Xie Nianqing who captured the metal ball, so she couldn't say anything.
"Let's go, we need to get out of here quickly!"
Lu Ming said.
They didn't have much time and couldn't afford to delay any longer; if the giant eagle returned, things would be in trouble.
Immediately, they rushed out of the cave, choosing a direction opposite to where Yuan Luodian and the others had fled, and soon disappeared from there.
Not long after Lu Ming and the others left, a piercing cry rang out, and a howling wind arose. The giant metal eagle had returned.
It landed at the entrance of the cave, seemed to sense something, and then let out an angry cry.
Gaa! Gaa! Gaa!
The giant metal eagle went berserk, its wings slashing like blades. Anything struck by its blade-like wings, whether metal plants or metal ground, exploded and turned into fragments that flew everywhere.
Whoosh!
Then, it soared into the sky and then swooped down, leaving the ground in ruins.
The metal giant eagle at the seventh level of the Void God Realm is truly terrifying, with astonishing destructive power.
It went berserk, wreaking havoc in the vicinity before gradually flying away and disappearing from sight.
After the giant metal eagle left, a figure flashed and appeared at the cave entrance.
It was none other than the bald, burly man from Yuanluo Hall.
He rushed into the cave, but soon after, he rushed out of the cave again.
"Damn it, damn it, who is it?"
The bald, burly man roared furiously, his face contorted in a ferocious grimace.
