The Moon Gazing Beast That Feeds on Ancient God Energy
"Just how much Immortal Essence does this guy possess? How can he still have such cultivation...? Could it be that he wasn't injured at all from beginning to end...? Or is he just trying to kill more cultivators from our Luotian Star Domain?"
Yao Bingyun realized the seriousness of the situation. After all, the souls of all the dead cultivators in the previous battle had been absorbed, which made it clear that the other party was doing this to collect souls.
"Damn it, I can't stay here any longer... I must inform the Ancestor..."
Yao Bingyun did not continue the pursuit. Just as she was about to turn and leave, all the clansmen who had been nearby screamed and fell into the starry sky.
Seeing this, Yao Bingyun quickly tore through the void to leave, but suddenly felt an unparalleled energy fluctuation in the air, and then saw that Luo Chuan had appeared in front of her at some point.
Yao Bingyun tried to resist, but Luo Chuan grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up. "I was planning to lure you away, but I didn't expect you to have already found out. As expected of a third-generation disciple."
"Yao Changdong was a third-generation disciple before, but he was only at the early stage of Spirit Severing. You, on the other hand, are a third-generation disciple and have already reached the middle stage of Spirit Severing. It seems that your talent is indeed quite high."
Yao Bingyun wanted to speak, but her throat was being squeezed, and she couldn't utter a single word. She could only feel the suffocation slowly engulfing her body.
Luo Chuan did not kill Yao Bingyun. After knocking her unconscious, he put her into his storage ring and then vanished from the spot in a flash.
The Yao Family mansion.
After sensing the shattered jade tokens of his clansmen, Blood God Child narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself, "I didn't expect this guy to be so difficult to kill. He not only slaughtered countless cultivators but also wiped out all the disciples I had arranged."
"It seems we have no choice but to send a more powerful member of our tribe, otherwise, if we continue like this, those guys will definitely notice us."
Blood God Child leaned back lazily in his chair, his divine sense stirring slightly before he handed the matter over to his second-generation disciple Yao Yun, to handle.
With Yao Yun's strength, he could easily kill that brat Luo Chuan.
Luotian Star Domain, Northern Region.
The cultivation star field formed by Moon Gazing Beast.
Luo Chuan appeared here, looking at the cultivation star before him, and thought to himself, "If I remember correctly, this should be the location of Moon Gazing Beast in the Luotian Star Domain."
As a transmigrator, Luo Chuan possessed foresight and understood that the cultivation star field before him was a manifestation of an extremely powerful demonic beast.
According to the original novel, the Ancient God Child inside Moon Gazing Beast's body is actually the Eight-Star Ancient God Luo Chen.
He was not born as a child, but was forced to regress from the peak of the eight-star level to a child form by Moon Gazing Beast's constant devouring of the Ancient God's essence. He was trapped in Moon Gazing Beast's body for countless millennia, becoming Moon Gazing Beast's life core and source of power.
The Ancient God race was already powerful, and the Eight-Star Ancient God were at the very top of the Cave Abode World.
Luo Chen survived a calamity that befell his clan, but was then devoured by Moon Gazing Beast, who was parasitizing his body.
Moon Gazing Beast feeds on the Ancient God Power, extracting his cultivation and soul over the years, trapping him deep within his body. This once powerful figure, who looked down upon the star field, has been reduced to a helpless, humiliating infant.
For the proud Ancient God, this was more cruel than death.
When Wang Lin entered Moon Gazing Beast's body, Luo Chen was only in his juvenile form, but the illusory Star Pattern of the Eight-Star Ancient God still remained between his eyebrows, and his original aura had not been extinguished.
Sensing the Ancient God inheritance of Tusi within Wang Lin, he let out a desolate roar, a cry for help and a furious roar of resentment. Moon Gazing Beast's thousands of tentacles entwined around him, constantly drawing upon his remaining Ancient God Power to sustain its own existence.
It can be said that as long as Luo Chen lives, Moon Gazing Beast can continuously recover, and the two have formed a life-and-death bond.
Wang Lin, through the restraint of his Ancient God body, resonated with this "young child".
Although Luo Chen's mind was nearly destroyed, he still recognized Wang Lin as a member of the same clan and bestowed upon him the remaining Ancient God essence and inheritance, helping Wang Lin consolidate his Ancient God cultivation and break through to a higher realm.
In the end, Luo Chen completely dissipated, and Moon Gazing Beast lost its core and its power was greatly reduced. Wang Lin took advantage of this and used it, and obtained the remnant of the Eight-Star Ancient God from Luo Chen. He also saw clearly the fateful entanglement between the Ancient God and Moon Gazing Beast.
"I've heard that Moon Gazing Beast's strength has already reached its peak; he's nearly invincible at the second step and has the power to fight at the third step. With my current strength, I'm definitely no match for that beast."
Luo Chuan recalled the original work he had read and understood that he was no match for Moon Gazing Beast now. The most important thing now was to find the Ancient God Child and see if he could get him to help him absorb the blood essence left behind by the Nine-Star Ancient God.
On the outer edge of the star field, broken meteorites floated silently like corpses, and the star wind howled past, bringing with it sharp and piercing wails, like the whispers of countless dead souls.
The earth was a dark reddish-brown, crisscrossed with deep, bottomless cracks, from which a faint blood-red mist seeped, intertwining with the moonlight above, creating an eerie and unsettling beauty.
The distant sky hung low, the clouds thick as lead, sometimes churning and surging, revealing the pitch-black void behind them.
Occasionally, a few streaks of dark red lightning would explode deep within the clouds, illuminating the entire desolate land, but unable to penetrate the endless darkness buried deep underground, belonging to the very essence of the Moon Gazing Beast.
"As expected of a cultivation star field formed by the Moon Gazing Beast, it is indeed astonishing. As long as we don't disturb the Moon Gazing Beast here, we should be fine."
Luo Chuan narrowed his eyes, staring at the void in front of him. He could also sense that there were no birds or beasts in the starry sky before him, and not a trace of life.
The silence was eerily profound, broken only by the faint, deep thumping sound emanating from beneath the earth, like the beating of a heart.
Each pulsation caused the entire cultivation star field to tremble slightly, making the starry sky shake.
That was the heartbeat of Moon Gazing Beast, and also the last remaining life force of Luo Chen, the Eight-Star Ancient God trapped deep within her body.
The star soil beneath Luo Chuan's feet was cold and hard, offering no elasticity whatsoever, but rather exuding a sense of weight and deathly stillness, like that of metal and stone.
The surroundings were eerily quiet, with only the sound of one's own breathing intertwined with the pulsating sounds emanating from the distant star field, creating an unimaginable sense of oppression.
"The Moon Gazing Beast -Gazing Body actually possesses such energy... It seems that over the years, it has absorbed almost all the energy of the Eight-Star Ancient God."
Luo Chuan did not disturb the place, after all, if Moon Gazing Beast were to awaken, he would be no match for it in his current state.
Only when the Ancient God Child stops releasing energy can a cultivator defeat it, but that can only be done by a powerhouse at the Sunie Realm.
Only by reaching the level of Six-Star Ancient God, also known as the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, can one completely subdue Moon Gazing Beast.
