Chapter 1906: Stop Acting
Over the next few days, Bai and the others formed battle formations, killing the Abyssal monsters that the ootheca bred.
Since then, they soon found out that the battle strength of the monsters the ootheca bred seemed to have reached its limit.
All of the Abyssal monsters it bred had only mastered some ten quadrillion chaotic cosmoses. None of them had mastered over 20 quadrillion chaotic cosmoses.
This made the imperial monsters’ combat strength disguise even more successful.
Time pa.s.sed by, and soon it was the 85th day.
At midnight, the ootheca bred 16 Abyssal monsters.
Meanwhile, Bai and the others had only formed nine battle formations.
Feeling helpless, some teams could only fight two monsters on their own.
Although they secretly unsealed some chaotic cosmoses, the battle was still very tough and only ended some three hours later.
Seeing that Bai and other others began to sit with their legs crossed to adjust their breathing, absorbing chaotic crystals and swallowing the essence of the universe to recover, Nyarlathotep had an excited look in his eyes. “I’d like to see what you guys are going to do during the next round!”

On the 86th midnight, the number of Abyssal monsters the ootheca bred doubled again. There were 32 monsters now.
While Nyarlathotep was eager to see them being defeated, Kylie and the rest began to create clones.
Almost everyone present created two clones. Although their combat strength was lower than their Primordiums, they had 70% to 80% of their Primordiums’ abilities.
The clones then formed battle formations as well.
The issue of not having sufficient battle formations was instantly solved.
Nyarlathotep was stunned to see the tricks they pulled.
Clearly, it was a solution that b.l.o.o.d.y had arranged beforehand.
As the clones joined in, the battle became much easier than the day before.
Within an hour and a half, the 32 Abyssal monsters were killed.
Nyarlathotep was enraged. He really had not expected them to pull this kind of trick.
For the 87th, 88th and 89th day, their actions remained the same, whereby they would create more clones to form battle formations.
However, as more and more clones were created, their combat strength would naturally be lower. This caused the battles throughout those days to become more and more difficult.
On the 87th day, they spent close to four hours in battle.
On the 88th day, they spent close to over eight hours in battle.
On the 89th day, the battle only ended after 20 hours.
Throughout those few days, they had lost half of their clones.
Nevertheless, they held on.
Seeing them slowly being beaten back, Nyarlathotep was antic.i.p.ating the last day of battle more and more.
“Judging by their current state, all of them should die on the last day.”
Soon, it was the 90th midnight.
A layer of black fog lingered on the surface of the ootheca again. However, what was different from before was that the fog had enveloped the ootheca entirely.
They could only see the lingering fog, and they could no longer see the spherical ootheca anymore.
The imperial monsters noticed the unusual situation instantly, and they put their guard up.
The breeding time for this round was clearly much longer than before.
They could only see the rumbling black fog, and could not probe what was happening deep within the fog at all.
Lin Huang, who was watching from far away, was the only one who could see what exactly was happening within the fog.
The ootheca was rotting and collapsing at speed visible to the naked eye. The tentacles began to tangle together, forming smaller ink-black spheres.
There were a total of 512 spheres formed.
The other side of the spheres were connected to the core of the ootheca, which was a ball of extremely thick black fog.
However, the ball of fog was shrinking quickly as well.
Lin Huang’s vision pierced through the surface of the sphere, and he soon saw what was happening inside.
The black spheres were actually monster eggs.
Inside the eggs, Abyssal monsters were forming quickly.
As the ootheca gradually collapsed, the ball of black fog at the core of the ootheca was shrinking as well. Once it had completely faded in the end, the black spheres that were made up of the tangled tentacles would be successfully bred. There were cracks slowly appearing on the small spheres.
Only then did Bai and the others see the black fog that was enveloping the ootheca fade away slowly.
The Abyssal monsters exuding terrifying auras finally showed themselves slowly.
Judging by their auras, they had clearly mastered close to 20 quadrillion chaotic cosmoses. Not only that, there were 512 of them.
What confused them the most was that the 500 or so monsters all looked the same.
They were monsters with 12 hooves. Their iron hooves were as thick as giant pillars.
Their heads consisted of tens of thousands of goat’s faces.
Above their heads were metal tentacles that were like horns that reached the sky, swaying like kelp in the sea.
“The Black Goat’s Offspring?!”
They instantly recalled what Old Man Heaven’s Secret had mentioned about the ultimate creature the Black Goat’s Egg would breed— the Black Goat’s Offspring.
Lin Huang, who was watching the battle from afar, frowned. “Why do they look different from the information Heaven’s Secret provided?”
In the information Heaven’s Secret provided to Lin Huang, the Black Goat’s Offspring was the ultimate creature that the Black Goat’s Egg bred.
Their sizes were much bigger than these Abyssal monsters in front of him, and their auras should be that of at least ten quintillion chaotic cosmoses. Their auras alone should have surpa.s.sed the three Outer G.o.ds.
Old Man Heaven’s Secret revealed to Bai and the others that the aura of the Black Goat’s Offspring was only ten quadrillion chaotic cosmoses as he was worried that they would feel burdened. He lowered their expectations on purpose.
On the other hand, the information they provided Lin Huang was legitimate without holding anything back.
However, Heaven’s Secret did not describe what they were looking at now.
Nonetheless, Lin Huang figured out the reason just with a thought. It was because there were many powerhouses in the era when Aza and the others invaded back then. As such, it was impossible that the Black Goat’s Egg could breed Abyssal monsters up to this point as it would have been killed before reaching this point.
This meant that the Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao had not seen the Black Goat’s Egg’s ultimate breeding mode.
Naturally, such a thing was not included in the information Heaven’s Secret provided.
“Seems like Bai and the rest will not have to pretend anymore.” Lin Huang did not panic at all. Instead, he chuckled.
Bai and the others snapped back to their senses after being momentarily stunned.
“The ootheca is gone, so this should be the last round of breeding,” Grimace said to the rest through voice transmission, “I think we shouldn’t act anymore. If we continue with the act, we might really lose our lives.”
The rest looked at Bai, seemingly awaiting his order.
After all, Bai was Lin Huang’s first imperial monster, and his ability had always been ranked within the top three among them.
When Lin Huang was not around, everyone basically treated him as the boss.
Bai only hesitated for a second before nodding. “Alright, stop acting. Let’s clear this round directly!”
