Devouring: Starting with an innate sacred body and Dao embryo

Chapter 67 Ascending to a Higher Realm, a Giant Beast Appears

"In that case, I'll leave it to my eldest and second brothers."

Jiang Chen handed the Hundred-Day Spring and Purple Light Dew to Hong and the Thunder God, and then took out three anonymous account-sensing helmets.

Through the consciousness-sensing helmet, the three can enter the virtual universe to learn about its customs, culture, and various situations in advance.

"Eldest brother, second brother, fourth brother, I will be going into seclusion to cultivate and improve my cultivation level. Once I finish my cultivation, I will take you to the universe."

"That's really something to look forward to."

Hong, Lei Shen, and Luo Feng all felt a longing for it.

Although they had learned about various aspects of the universe from Jiang Chen, it was only hearsay and far less intuitive than personal experience.

However, before leaving Earth, they still need to take care of many things on Earth so that they have no worries.

Besides, we also need to wait for Jiang Chen to finish his secluded cultivation.

The three then took their leave to go back and handle various matters, making preparations before leaving Earth.

After the three left, Jiang Chen glanced at the date and thought to himself:

"The emergence of the Golden Horned Beast is not far off. With my current planetary-level second-tier strength, I am not strong enough to deal with it. I need to raise my cultivation level again."

Various cultivation resources for improving one's cultivation level were taken out of his spatial ring, absorbed and refined by him, thus enhancing his own cultivation.

The advancement of cultivation, between each major realm, such as from the planetary level to the eternal level, from the eternal level to the cosmic level... represents a leap in one's own life level, the most fundamental change in the physical body and soul.

It requires not only sufficient resources, but also enough personal insight and experience.

The advancement of minor realms, such as the first to ninth ranks of the Planetary Realm, the first to ninth ranks of the Eternal Realm, etc., is merely the accumulation of energy.

As long as there is enough energy, one can naturally improve.

However, due to the special nature of Jiang Chen's innate sacred body and Dao embryo, he possesses a hundred times more life genes at the planetary level.

Therefore, the energy required far exceeds that of ordinary planetary-level cultivators.

This is why he was so eager to go to the universe. On Earth, without additional cultivation resources, his cultivation speed would be incredibly slow on his own.

Once inside the universe, with the help of the advanced virtual universe network and the thriving commerce of the human race, as long as one has enough money, one can purchase sufficient resources to improve one's own realm and strength.

Jiang Chen took out various cultivation resources from his spatial ring, totaling dozens of types.

These dozens of resources are all incredibly precious, worth hundreds of billions of Black Dragon Coins. Using them in combination can increase Jiang Chen's cultivation level by hundreds of times.

Jiang Chen sat cross-legged, picked up these cultivation resources, and used them one by one, refining and absorbing them to improve his cultivation level.

……

January 13, 2060 AD, America.

New Zealand, once hailed as the world's capital and a prosperous and wealthy place, was destroyed by monsters during the Great Rebirth and became their habitat.

In New Zealand, a military base was established inland to block the monsters' attacks.

But today, this place is facing utter destruction.

The vast Atlantic Ocean surges with waves, bathed in the shimmering glow of the setting sun.

Suddenly, a hideous monster burst out of the water.

This monster is nearly two hundred meters long, and its entire body is covered with black scales, like armor, which gleam in the afterglow of the setting sun.

On its back, a pair of wings spread out, blotting out the sky.

With each flap of the fan, a fierce wind surged, and waves rolled up hundreds of meters high, crashing onto the shore.

The monster's ferocious head was raised high, and a sharp horn pierced the clouds.

The sharp corners are covered with golden patterns that spread all over the body, forming dazzling designs.

It arrived at the nearest military base in New Zealand as soon as it appeared.

A pair of dark golden eyes looked down, filled with coldness and savagery, as if a naturally superior being were looking down on ants.

It is the Golden Horned Beast, here to devour everything on this planet!

"It's a monster! Shoot it down quickly!"

Upon discovering the presence of the Golden Horned Beast, the military base immediately activated its laser cannons and bombarded the beast.

Three bright white beams of light illuminated the area, creating a vast, blinding expanse.

Even a king-level monster would be instantly killed if struck by any one of the beams of light.

However, the Golden Horned Beast is a being that far surpasses a King-level monster.

The golden-horned behemoth remained motionless, allowing the three laser cannons to bombard its body, yet not even its scales were damaged in the slightest.

"How is this possible? It can actually ignore the laser cannon's attack!"

The soldiers and officers at the military base stared in disbelief at the terrifying golden-horned beast, their eyes filled with fear.

"Waaah!"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

A deep roar resounded as the golden-horned behemoth opened its mouth, unleashing an irresistible suction force.

Suddenly, space distorted, the entire military base was uprooted and shrank continuously until it was completely swallowed by the golden-horned behemoth.

After devouring the military base, the Golden Horned Beast seemed unsatisfied, roaring to the sky as it flew towards the American interior.

Behind it, two beast kings, the Eight-Clawed Beast King and the Thunder Dragon King, led a group of king-level and lord-level monsters...

They followed the golden-horned behemoth, forming an unprecedentedly massive beast tide that swept across the river and crashed into the human base.

Soon after the Golden Horned Beast was born, news of it spread all over the world.

In the conference hall on the top floor of the War God Palace, the leaders of the five major powers, the leaders of various top forces, a group of War Gods, members of parliament, and the speaker were almost all present.

Hong, Lei Shen, and Luo Feng were among them.

When they saw the Golden Horned Beast ignore the laser cannon's attack and swallow the entire military base whole.

Everyone present realized the power and terror of the Golden Horned Beast.

Immediately afterwards, the Golden Horned Beast led two Beast Kings and a host of monsters to sweep through the human base, causing a massive impact.

Everyone in the rooftop conference hall wore a solemn expression, as if the end of the world had arrived.

"This monster is not from Earth, but a cosmic creature from outer space. It's a devouring type, and its strength should be at the constellation level!"

Inside the conference hall, one of the members, Clarence, deduced part of the origin and strength of the Golden Horned Beast based on information obtained from ancient ruins on Earth.

"Starry Sky Monster!"

Upon hearing Clarence's explanation, the others present did not breathe a sigh of relief; instead, they became even more solemn.

Even the First Speaker Hong is no match for the star monsters of the Hengxing level.

Who can stop the Earth now?

"Clarence is right. This is indeed a cosmic behemoth, and a cosmic behemoth with the highest bloodline, making it more than ten times stronger than an ordinary star-level cultivator."

Jiang Chen appeared in the conference hall, and as soon as he arrived, he told everyone present even worse news.

"The Golden Horned Beast is more than ten times stronger than an ordinary star-level powerhouse! My God! Is humanity destined for extinction?"

Upon hearing the news, some people in the conference hall began to wail in despair.

"Is there really no hope left for humanity?" someone roared in defiance.
