Chapter 2704 - A Primordial Realm Life-devouring Beast
Chapter 2704: A Primordial Realm Life-devouring Beast
The man’s figure slowly faded away. It was as if he had become a part of the world again. His methods were so strange that no one could sense his existence.
A hundred kilometres away, the huge eagle circled around at a low altitude. It would sweep past the canopy of trees from time to time and bring about a great gust of wind, stripping leaves from the trees and causing them to be blown about in the air. As a matter of fact, some of the smaller trees were directly uprooted, swept into the air.
The vague pressure that belonged to a beast king radiated from the eagle, causing some Life-devouring beasts hidden in the forest to flee.
Weaker Life-devouring Beasts lacked self-consciousness and a sense of fear or dread, which was why cultivators could not deter them from attacking. However, the beast king’s presence from the eagle invoked a sense of fear that was embedded in their very bloodline.
As a result, wherever the eagle flew by, a mess would occur in the forests below. Many Life-devouring Beasts would flee into the distance to get away from the eagle.
Jian Chen sat on the eagle’s back quietly as he continued to ponder.
Due to the uniqueness of his soul, he had managed to find something off about the rain. Even though he was unable to confirm anything, he had already begun to suspect that the rain was not natural. Rather, it was likely caused by someone. The rain had been contaminated by some strange substance as well, which could nullify the side effects of the mist. As a result, the sacrificial soldiers recovered.
Most importantly, whenever Jian Chen tried to collect the substance in the rain, it would suddenly vanish. Hence, the rain would be reduced to normal rainwater in his hands.
Jian Chen refused to believe that the substance was self-conscious and had automatically avoided him. Since that was the case, only one possibility remained—an expert who was far more powerful than Jian Chen was secretly controlling everything.
Such a matter would have been nothing surprising if this had happened in the outside world, but this was the World of the Fallen Beast, a place filled with the supreme will of the Grand Exalts of the Wood Spirits and the Darkstar race. Only outsiders below the age of a thousand years could enter. Meanwhile, the people of the Darkstar race were suppressed by the supreme will of the Grand Exalt from the Wood Spirits, preventing them from breaking through to Chaotic Prime. The Ninth Heavenly Layer of Infinite Prime was the maximum cultivation they could possess in the World of the Fallen Beast.
In such a special miniature world, how was it possible for an expert who could fool his senses to exist?
This was a question Jian Chen could not answer.
As a result, he was doubtful and very confused at the same time.
He refused to believe that a supreme expert who could fool everybody and sneak in here against the wills of the two Grand Exalts existed.
As his understanding of the World of the Fallen Beast increased, he gained the impression that let alone Grand Primes, but even sovereigns of the world who had basically become part of the laws of the world would have to endure the wills of the two Grand Exalts if they wanted to enter here.
Even exceptional people on the same level as the two Grand Exalts would have to face this, let alone people below Grand Exalt.
“Whatever, let’s not think about this for now. I need to get out of here as quickly as possible. After that, I need to find a way to save Sacredfeather.” Jian Chen exhaled deeply and cleared his head.
Roar!
Suddenly, the tremendous roar of a beast rang out with the might of a beast king.
A huge, three-eyed tiger stood proudly on a large rock up ahead, staring at the incoming eagle with hostility.
This was another late Godking Life-devouring Beast king. The region here clearly belonged to it. Under Jian Chen’s control, the eagle had already intruded upon its territory.
The eagle froze up slightly when it saw the tiger, and it could not help but slow down. Deep fear filled its dull eyes.
“What are you afraid of? Fly over there.” Jian Chen slapped the back of the eagle and surging energy appeared, enveloping the entire eagle. Afterwards, the eagle flew towards the tiger helplessly.
Jian Chen constantly paid attention to the group behind him. They travelled in a straight path. This was a place where the group had to pass by, so he needed to clear the obstacles in their way so that they could make it out of the Two World Mountains as soon as possible.
As if it had been provoked, the tiger fell into a rage. It let out a deafening roar that reverberated outwards as sound waves, disintegrating all the vegetation within a range of ten kilometres. Even the rocks that formed the ground cracked.
Jian Chen waved his hand, and the space behind him immediately twisted. He had already cast down a spatial barrier in the surroundings to prevent the roar from making it out. Otherwise, the group would definitely hear the tiger’s roar. Once they knew there was a Life-devouring Beast king up ahead, they would surely change directions and waste even more time.
At this moment, the third eye on the tiger’s forehead suddenly opened. A beam of green light shot over with unbelievable speed.
The eagle shuddered violently. It seemed to be familiar with the tiger’s third eye. As the green beam shot over, it instinctively tried to turn around and flee.
“Hmm? It actually carries the power of the Laws of Curses.” Jian Chen was surprised before suddenly focusing on the incoming beam of light. When he gazed over, the beam of light suddenly froze in the air.
No, calling it frozen would be wrong. The beam of light continued onwards, except it moved at a snail-like pace; it was so slow that it seemed like it had halted.
“This Life-devouring Beast king is quite powerful, especially that beam of light with the Laws of Curses. The attack is powerful enough to threaten most supreme prodigies on the Godkings’ Throne. No wonder the eagle wanted to flee as soon as it saw it. It seems like the eagle has suffered because of this tiger before,” Jian Chen murmured to himself before gently pointing at the tiger. He called out, “Destroy!”
With that, the beam of light suddenly collapsed. Subsequently, the tiger itself exploded.
At this moment, Jian Chen suddenly frowned and suddenly looked at where the tiger had died.
A shadow suddenly rose up from there before gradually condensing into the figure of a huge beast. The beast was also a three-eyed tiger, except it was much larger, like a mountain. Its presence was earth-shaking as well, hundreds of times stronger than the Life-devouring Beast king.
It stared straight at Jian Chen like it wanted to burn Jian Chen’s presence into its brain.
“A Primordial realm Life-devouring Beast. I never thought the Life-devouring Beast king I just killed had backing.” Jian Chen sat on the eagle’s back and looked at the huge figure calmly.
However, the eagle below him had already begun to tremble in fear. Its wings had stopped working. If it were not for the fact that it was under Jian Chen’s control, it probably would have fallen down already.
“I will come for you. Disperse,” Jian Chen looked at the large figure and said calmly. Afterwards, he waved his hand gently, and the figure suddenly collapsed.
