Chapter 2706: A Clash between the Powerful (Two)

“By the looks of things, it’s a battle between two Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts. If that’s the case, we don’t have to worry too much.”

“That’s right. Although the senses of Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts span an extremely wide range, they must devote all of their efforts to the battle since they’ve encountered an opponent at the same level. It won’t be able to discover us from so far away.”

Some prodigies could tell that something was off from the weak pulses of energy, and they immediately calmed down significantly.

This was because they had already determined that the Primordial realm Life-devouring Beast in the distance was unable to pose any threat to them temporarily. They would not have to face off against it.

“In the intense battle between the two, one side will definitely suffer injuries. Perhaps, both of them will become heavily wounded. Should we go over and check on the situation there? We might be able to benefit unexpectedly. The remains of Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts are a priceless treasure,” said a prodigy as his eyes shone with excitement and greed.

When the others heard him, some of their faces immediately darkened. They stared at the person with displeasure. They would not even be able to escape from Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts, yet there was actually a person reckless enough to want to approach them. Were they tired of living?

Of course, not everyone responded in the same manner. The eyes of a few prodigies lit up. They were ready to risk it. “That’s not a bad idea. Although the devouring abilities of Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts are extremely powerful, it’s limited to a certain range. As long as we remain further away, they won’t be able to do anything to us. Moreover, they’ve met an opponent their equal right now. They’re focusing on the battle, so they will have minimal awareness of their surroundings. It’ll make it even more difficult for them to discover us.”

“Everyone, think about it. Just how precious are the remains of Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts? If you add a bit of their remains when refining high quality God Tier pills, both their efficacy and quality will increase. Once God Tier pills reach high quality, they’re already priceless. Hence, I think that all of you understand just how valuable they’ll become with even the slightest improvement of efficacy.”

“Risk comes with reward. Before us is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

The prodigies who were tempted by the remains of Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts did their best to convince the group to go hunt down the Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts.

The temptation of the remains was simply too great for them. Although it could not directly increase their strength, bringing back a portion of it would warrant merit so great that they might even be personally rewarded by the ancestor. Their status in the clan would rise accordingly.

They were all prodigies from peak clans, but some of them did not possess particularly great status in their clans. They only had some status because one of their ancestors were a great elder.

However, there were plenty of people in the younger generation with greater status. As a matter of fact, there were even a few that the ancestor had placed high hopes on. They were superior in both cultivation speed and battle prowess. However, they were older than a thousand years, which had cost them this opportunity and allowed others to gain the chance to enter the World of the Fallen Beast to demonstrate themselves and contribute to the clan.

As a result, some of them were unable to resist the temptation of the remains of Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts.

There was a difference in substance that existed between the Primordial realm and Godhood. No matter how many remains of Godhood Life-devouring Beasts they obtained, it would be nowhere near as valuable as a thumb-sized chunk of remains from the Primordial realm.

He Qianqian also hesitated. Clearly, she was rather tempted.

The Heavenly Crane clan was in desperate need of Primordial realm Life-devouring Beast remains. They did not need it for a high quality God Tier pill. Rather, they required it for a supreme quality pill that was even greater so that one of their important figures could ingest it.

“The Crane Ancestor still hasn’t recovered from his wounds. Ordinary supreme quality God Tier pills aren’t very effective. Only supreme quality pills with Primordial realm Life-devouring Beast remains might be of some use, as its effects will be amplified,” thought He Qianqian. She understood that these Life-devouring Beasts were basically created by the Grand Exalt of the Wood Spirits. As a result, they contained small fragments of the Grand Exalt’s laws.

This was a form of life force. It would be extremely useful in pills, enough to breathe life into the old.

“Young master Jin Hong, do you think we should risk it?” He Qianqian looked at Jin Hong. She greatly desired some of the flesh, which could be refined into supreme quality God Tier pills to help the Crane Ancestor heal.

“Risk it? Hmph, I’m certain that if we just try to approach that place, we’ll be annihilated. He Qianqian, you seem rather level-headed normally, so why have you become muddle-headed now?” Jin Hong snorted coldly. He glared at the interested people and said with a sunken voice, “Don’t forget, Life-devouring Beasts aren’t cultivators. We might be able to threaten Infinite Primes that are on the brink of death if we work together, but even if Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts are close to dying, they’ll still be able to suck your life force dry from hundreds of kilometres away. If you want to go ahead, I can promise you that you’ll be dead before you can even see the Life-devouring Beast.”

“That’s all I’ll say. Make the decision for yourself. If you still want to try, I won’t stop you.” With that, Jin Hong left with a few people and a large number of sacrificial soldiers. Clearly, he was ready to perform a full retreat, wanting to pull away from the Life-devouring Beasts.

He Qianqian looked in the direction of the disturbance reluctantly. She made up her mind and left with the group.

As for the other prodigies who were tempted by the remains of Primordial realm Life-devouring Beasts, their eagerness slowly subsided, and they also left reluctantly while filled with regrets.

Several hundred kilometres away, Jian Chen and the Primordial realm Life-devouring Beast met half-way. They did not try to communicate with each other. As soon as the Life-devouring Beast saw Jian Chen, it embroiled in a great battle with him as its eyes burned with hatred.

Jian Chen stood in the air, and light flickered around him. He enveloped himself in the light from his Laws of the Sword such that he seemed like a ball of silver light from afar. His figure was vaguely visible.

He hovered in the air, radiating with surging sword Qi. He was able to rain sword Qi towards the Primordial realm Life-devouring Beast with the slightest movement. Everything in his hands became a sword.

The attacks of the Life-devouring Beast were much simpler. It did not use any battle skills or secret techniques, nor did it understand how to use tricks. Its attacks were clearly rather clumsy. It used its claws and sharp teeth.

Although that was the case, it was still of the Primordial realm after all. Its body surged with energy. Even though its use of energy was not very skillful, its strength was extremely shocking everytime it struck out.

Moreover, it constantly gave off a strange suction. The strength of the suction force was shocking, and it especially devoured life force. Even some weaker Infinite Primes would not be able to keep their life force under control if they faced against it, resulting in it all draining away.

“This Life-devouring Beast is roughly at the Third Heavenly Layer of Infinite Prime, but it’ll take a Fourth Heavenly Layer expert at the very least to defeat it. It’ll probably be very difficult for anyone below the Third Heavenly Layer to keep their life force under control,” Jian Chen thought as he became rather stern.

With his current cultivation level, he could vaguely sense that his life force was being drained away as he faced against the Life-devouring Beast. He could only keep it locked down when he poured all his efforts into defence, utilising both Chaotic Force and his Laws of the Sword.

His battle prowess completely exceeded the Life-devouring Beast. He had even killed Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes in the past with the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways. Now that he was without his sword, some of his strength was lost, but he was still an expert among Infinite Primes.

However, battle prowess was not equivalent to levels of cultivation or comprehension. His cultivation was only roughly the same as the Life-devouring Beast before him.
