Devouring the Stars: Withdrawing Talents

The Sacred Realm of Yuantian, the Abyss Mountains.

The vast majority of the low-level Chaos Origin life forms in the entire cultivation holy world are gathered in this Abyss Mountain Range, with only a small number wandering in the wilderness of those desolate island continents.

Weaker cultivators mostly "hunt" in the wilderness of the deserted island continent. Only those with strong abilities will enter the Abyss Mountains to hunt down stronger, lower-level Chaos Origin life forms.

At this moment, in a valley, a group of cultivators is streaking across the sky at a frantic speed, not even caring about keeping their identities secret, and are fleeing towards the deserted island continent with all their might.

"Hurry up!"

"Run!"

The members of this group of cultivators all looked anxious.

They were a group of cultivators from Tianyun City. Their purpose in entering the Abyss Mountains was simply to hunt down some low-level Chaos Origin beings at the late stage of God Emperor level. Who would have thought they would encounter a being beyond the limit?

Even a perfect God Emperor level Chaos Origin Lifeform is extremely difficult to kill. The bloodlines of Chaos Origin Lifeforms at this level have been strengthened to the limit. They only need to awaken one more step to have the potential to become a high-level Chaos Origin Lifeform.

Moreover, this is a Transcendental level cultivator at the peak of God Emperor realm, possessing extremely formidable strength.

"Gentlemen, we're running out of time. There's only one way to survive: scatter, scatter completely!"

The leader of the cultivation team immediately suggested that, in the face of a low-level Chaos Origin life form of the Transcendental level, they could only split up and flee, so that one or two of them might be able to survive.

Otherwise, if they are caught up, their entire team will be finished.

"it is good."

"Disperse and act independently."

The practitioners in this training group acted decisively and quickly dispersed completely, each acting independently.

Based on experience, when a team of cultivators is scattered, those transcendent-level Chaos Origin beings are generally too lazy to search for them one by one.

Thus, the lucky ones among them will survive.

and……

Once they run a sufficient distance, those transcendent-level Chaos Origin lifeforms will be suppressed by the formation and unwilling to risk pursuing them any longer.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have taken such a risk. I hope I can make it back to Tianyun City alive this time."

A woman in black was fleeing at an extremely fast speed. At this moment, a faint regret rose in her heart. She should have known better than to cross the border so easily.

Practitioners must strictly adhere to hunting areas, a lesson learned from the deaths of many practitioners.

The number of low-level Chaos Origin life forms is enormous, and they wouldn't care too much if the outermost edge of the Abyss Mountains were attacked.

Because the outermost area is too vast, it is too difficult for even low-level Chaos Origin life forms of the Transcendent level to hunt down those cultivators, and they are also likely to be hunted down by powerful cultivators.

However, if the heart of the Abyss Mountains is attacked, the lower-level Chaos Origin life forms will soon send forces from all sides to hunt them down.

The lower-level primordial beings are far inferior to cultivators in terms of comprehension. However, in terms of wisdom, they are not weaker than the average level of the Origin Continent.

Kill them?

Killing the weakest early-stage God Emperors is one thing, since they are the marginal weaklings of the race. But those at the Perfect God Emperor level are high-ranking members or even leaders within the race.

Even those at the God Emperor level (at its peak) occasionally join forces to wipe out cultivators who venture into the heart of the abyss.

In the realm of cultivation, although lower-level Chaos Origin beings are considered prisoners in terms of status, cultivators are actually at a disadvantage on the front lines.

Is this a real group battle?

Cultivators cannot defeat lower-level primordial beings.

……

Just as the woman in black was fleeing for her life, she suddenly felt a terrifying aura slowly rising behind her.

"not good."

The woman in black felt her limbs stiff and cold. When she turned her head, she saw a towering and enormous phantom appear in the distance.

Too fast. The phantom was moving so fast that its form became blurry and illusory.

"Pong!"

The figure, shrouded in gray mist, stomped down with a massive foot that resembled a mountain. Before the woman in black could even dodge, she was instantly reduced to dust.

The difference in strength between the two sides was too great; this stomp was like crushing an ant.

"Pong."

"Pong."

The figure shrouded in gray mist strode forward, its cold eyes filled with killing intent as it pursued and killed one cultivator after another.

With one stomp, yet another cultivator perished.

These practitioners were able to face death with equanimity, and even wanted to use the pressure of such a crisis to fight between life and death, hoping to achieve the Hunyuan state.

however……

It's not that easy to achieve the Hunyuan method.
Under the pursuit of the low-level Chaos Origin life forms beyond the limit, most cultivators could only perish on the spot. Those with clones lost a large amount of their accumulated resources, while those without clones were annihilated on the spot.

Only a very small number of practitioners survived because of the deaths of their fellow practitioners.

……

Contrary to what the group of cultivators in the valley had anticipated, this was not merely retaliation for their crossing the border.

The transcendent-level low-level Chaos Origin life forms not only appeared in one place in the Abyss Mountains, but also in other places in the heart of the Abyss.

"escape!"

"Escape quickly!"

In a dark mountain forest, a dozen or so cultivators were fleeing frantically, their bodies covered in wounds, and some of them even had their weapons and treasures destroyed.

However, in the void behind them, a huge winged creature was chasing after them.

It has a pair of sharp claws, wings that are larger than its body when spread out, a triangular head, and three faces that are coldly observing the fleeing cultivators ahead.

The scales on those wings were gray, a deathly gray, and just looking at them, one could feel the aura of death.

A massive, two-winged creature concealed itself in the void, its three faces coldly observing the surroundings. Its long, thin tail swayed slowly, yet moved effortlessly through the void.

To know.

The Sacred Realm of Yuantian is inhabited by countless low-level Chaos Origin life forms, as well as powerful beings from billions of worlds.

The power of these powerful beings fighting is unimaginable; the space of the cultivation holy realm must be extremely stable, otherwise it could not withstand such a battle.

Because the world is too stable, even if the Great Dao of Space reaches the semi-primordial level, it can only achieve spatial travel over extremely short distances.

However, this enormous winged creature seemed to be the darling of the void, freely roaming through the air, its three faces filled with mockery as it watched the cultivators desperately fleeing ahead.

"devour..."

The enormous winged creature was eager to devour more cultivators, as it would receive more rewards from heaven and earth and become even more powerful.

before this.

It knew perfectly well that this was nothing but a cage, and that even if it became stronger, it would still be unable to escape it.

Ever since it was captured and thrown into this cage, it has never considered escaping on its own, so it has always hidden in the heart of the Abyss Mountains. As long as those cultivators don't provoke it, it can't be bothered with them.

however……

Now, however, there is an opportunity for it to truly break free from this cage.
