They Roamed the Starry Sky, Feeding on Stellar Remains
The size of that Starry Sky Behemoth was much larger than Wu Chu had imagined.
When Taiyi released the giant beast from its seal in the kitchen, its enormous body, hundreds of thousands of feet long, left everyone speechless with astonishment.
The two-headed Daluo Realm Two-Headed Giant Alligator beast that once measured nearly a hundred miles in size was like a child in front of an adult compared to this Starry Sky Behemoth.
Fortunately, the kitchen inside the Solar Temple had been modified by Di Jun and Taiyi beforehand, and the space inside was large enough to hold such a giant beast; otherwise, the entire temple would probably have been burst open.
It must be said that Wu Chu and his companions had never seen or eaten a beast of this size before.
Hong Yun clicked his tongue in amazement, saying, "Given its size, what level of cultivation does this behemoth possess? Its aura as Daluo Realm cultivator isn't even very noticeable..."
Taiyi laughed and said, "Actually, this Starry Sky Behemoth's cultivation has only just entered the Daluo Realm. It just lacks discernment, coming to provoke me... If you, fellow Daoist, often travel through this starry sky, you'll understand that the behemoths in this starry sky are generally larger than those in the Primordial Land. I once saw a Starry Sky Behemoth as large as a star, its aura so immense it was terrifying..."
Everyone here is Daluo Realm expert, and Taiyi's cultivation is no weaker than theirs. Just how strong is this giant beast that even Taiyi trembles over?
Wu Chu even knew that Taiyi's companion Spirit Treasure, the Chaos Bell, was one of the three supreme Supreme Treasure of the Primordial Land. On the surface, Taiyi's cultivation was comparable to Hong Yun's, but if he really used the Supreme Treasure, Taiyi could easily defeat Hong Yun.
Even Zhen Yuanzi, who possesses the Earth Book, could easily beat up the pitiful Hong Yun, since Hong Yun is actually a poor wretch with no good Spirit Treasure!
"Starry Sky Behemoth the size of a star?"
When Little Moon Spirit and the other low-level cultivators, along with the Little Flower Fairies, heard Taiyi's words, their eyes widened in disbelief.
They had just seen this Sun Star up close; even if other stars weren't as large as the Sun Star, they were still unimaginably enormous.
Just how powerful must a beast be to be this large?
The Little Flower Fairies secretly marveled at how wondrous this world was, with its diminutive sprites like themselves and colossal beings as large as stars...
Wu Chu said, "I reckon those kinds of giant beasts are rare even in this starry sky!"
Taiyi nodded and said, "That's true. We've been traveling through this starry sky for so many years, and we've only seen it once. In the end, we even saw it swim into the Primordial Chaos."
Huanglong asked curiously, "Senior Taiyi, is the depths of this starry sky also connected to Primordial Chaos?"
Taiyi laughed and said, "What? Didn't your master tell you?"
"I did mention it, but Master didn't say much more."
As Huanglong spoke, he glanced at Wu Chu.
Wu Chu smiled and said, "Actually, I'm not very clear on this either. I haven't thought about this kind of thing before, and I haven't thought to ask my master either. So, I'll trouble Taiyi to teach these little guys some basic knowledge! We can listen in as well."
Taiyi laughed and said, "Actually, it's not surprising. Under normal circumstances, creatures living on the Primordial Land rarely care about things in the starry sky unless necessary."
As he spoke, he picked up a small dish and placed it in a basin, saying, "If this small dish represents the Primordial Land, then the area around it is the Four Seas, the area above it is this starry sky, and the edge of this basin is the protective Heaven-Earth Barriers of the Primordial World Heaven-Earth Barriers, which is guarded by four powerful emperors."
Everyone understands this, including the Little Flower Fairies. After all, they have heard the legends of the four Four Pole Great Emperors more than once.
Taiyi then asked, "You've all heard the legend of Great God Pangu creating the world, haven't you?"
Everyone nodded in agreement, and the Little Qilin Di Kun added, "Our Houtu and her Witch Tribe are descendants of the Great God Pangu!"
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Taiyi and the others were naturally aware of this matter. Although Houtu would not easily boast like this, they couldn't help but Zhurong about it to Zhurong and the other flamboyant Ancestral Witch!
Taiyi laughed and said, "When the Great God Pangu created the world, everything around us was Primordial Chaos. After the Primordial Land was created, it was completely enveloped by Primordial Chaos in all directions. In other words, the area above this starry sky, which is also deep within the starry sky, is naturally in contact with Primordial Chaos as well..."
"The four poles are guarded by four great emperors, but who will guard this starry sky?"
Wu Chu suddenly remembered the Four Symbol Guardian Spirits formed by the Twenty-Eight Constellations. The Four Symbol Guardian Spirits were the four Great Emperors, and it was estimated that the Twenty-Eight Constellations were their subordinates.
In other words, this starry sky is also being protected by them.
Taiyi smiled and said, "The heavens and Heaven-Earth Barriers to withstand Chaos Storm and Chaos Behemoth that may appear. Deep within this starry sky, there are also Heaven-Earth Barriers. While the Four Pole Great Emperors are protecting it, the celestial bodies of the universe are also protecting it..."
Di Jun also said, "If you observe carefully, you will find that this celestial constellation is actually a huge Great Formation of the Cosmic Stars. Perhaps when the Great God Pangu created the world, he used his hair to transform into stars and set up this array to resist the coming of the Chaos Storm!"
Upon hearing Di Jun mention this, Wu Chu couldn't help but wonder if Di Jun had already begun using his River Chart and Luo Book to study this Great Formation of the Cosmic Stars?
I don't think so!
Otherwise, why didn't he use it at the beginning of the Witch-Demon War in the original Primordial World mythology?
Or is it that the starry sky is too vast, making it extremely difficult to study?
Wu Chu shook his head inwardly, guessing that Di Jun at this time only knew about this natural Stellar Formation and had not yet thought about studying and replicating it to defend against enemies.
Bai Ze, standing nearby, asked curiously, "Where did these Starry Sky Behemoth come from? Are there many of them in this starry sky?"
Taiyi shook his head and said, "The number isn't large. As for their origin, they probably come from the Primordial Chaos! We speculate that these behemoths are indeed Chaos Behemoth. These Chaos Behemoth come to this star system to give birth, and then the cubs grow up here. They roam the star system, feeding on star debris, and after they grow up, they swim back into the Primordial Chaos..."
Wu Chu's gaze fell on this colossal creature, sensing the aura emanating from it. This aura carried intense energy radiation; any ordinary creature standing near it would probably have been terrified and fled in panic long ago.
Creatures in the starry sky and creatures on the Primordial Land may seem similar in terms of their aura, but there are differences in the energy radiation they emit. After all, the energy source of creatures on the Primordial Land is Primordial Spiritual Energy.
