Origin Devourer Beast

RUMBLE!

Su Bei stomped his foot on the ground. The area within a dozen meters exploded with dust, as if a dragon-elephant had landed. A massive pit was left on the ground. His figure then vanished from the spot like a hurricane tearing through the air.

He reappeared nearly a hundred meters away!

With a few flashes, he was already a thousand meters away. His speed had increased significantly!

Using a meteorite as a core and the Emperor Sun Aura as energy, he had created a universe within his body!

The inner and outer universes reflected each other, achieving an unparalleled physical body!

This was the core of the Great Sun Emperor Body Technique, created by combining cultivation methods from a fantasy world with the Gene Methods of this world.

It transcended all cultivation methods. Even the top-tier Gene Methods in this world could not compare to Su Bei.

This was a brutal and naked dimensional strike from a fantasy world where time was measured in epochs, upon the Gene Martial Arts that had only just been born a thousand years ago!

Although Su Bei's body was only in its nascent stage and still a hundred thousand and eight thousand miles away from true success.

Even so, Su Bei felt a sense of data-like beauty.

Even among prodigies, records showed that upon opening their Body Gate, their strength broke through ten thousand kilograms. But Su Bei, with nearly twenty thousand kilograms, was enough to look down on all his peers.

After all, according to the Association's minimum punch force standard for Second-order Martial Artists, it was only 15,000 KG, yet Su Bei had far surpassed this standard.

Most people needed to spend a long time to reach this standard, and after attempting to open the second Secret Treasury Gate, their physical potential would be further released.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Shattered Battlefield.

The situation for Liang Dao and the other three was not good. Each of them was injured, with Lei Bin being the most severely wounded. His entire right arm was severed, his face was as pale as gold paper, and he was fleeing backward in a sorry state.

Their speed was not slow either, their strength appearing to be around ten thousand kilograms.

Especially Xu Zhijie, who was not the most outstanding among the four during his Quasi-Martial Artist phase. Now, he was enveloped in flickering lightning, his speed incredibly fast. He occasionally drew his bow and shot arrows backward, lightning attached to the arrows like ion cannons, shattering the rocks behind him in an instant.

He cultivated his family's top-tier Gene Method, the "Ion Electric Gene Method." Although he only used an A-grade Ascension Secret Treasure, the Thunderlight Stone, during his advancement, it was extremely compatible with him. He had also inherited a portion of his father's latent genes. Now, all his genes were like little electric figures, with his strength and speed pushed to the limit.

BANG!

A hundred meters behind them, a beast the size of a small calf stumbled from this terrifying blow, but it got up as if unharmed and continued to charge towards them.

Its body was covered in black carapace, with only its eyes exposed. It resembled an arthropod, with six slender legs underneath and two sharp forearms like scythes. Its mouth was filled with densely layered teeth, looking incredibly terrifying.

The exposed eyes held ferocity and cunning, already possessing a degree of intelligence.

"No! It's adapting to my strength!"

"If we keep this up, even with more supplies, we'll be dragged to death!"

"Do you guys have any trump cards left?"

The others were no less formidable. Liang Dao cultivated the "Lion Dragon Gene Method," his blood and qi were incredibly vigorous, especially his long legs with bulging muscles. He swung his curved saber backward, unleashing a burst of green Qi Force that shot out dozens of meters, blocking the beast's path.

"To earn merit on the Shattered Battlefield, my old man only gave me a life-saving martial arts charm for escaping. Besides, items containing power outside the rules can't be brought in!"

But at this moment, these prodigies were filled with panic.

Every movement felt like it was being scrutinized by a pair of ferocious eyes, and even their actions felt strangely uncoordinated.

"Abandon the mission!"

"Who would have thought a Origin Devourer Beast would be here!"

Origin Devourer Beasts, nobles among Starry Sky Alien Beasts, had incredibly hard carapaces that were resistant to blades and swords. They fed on origin energy, and the power contained within their flesh and blood was terrifying. Especially their terrifying adaptability; as long as they weren't killed in one blow, they would quickly adapt to that power!

They could survive in volcanoes, ice caves, or even complete vacuum environments, and the more damage they sustained, the stronger they became.

It was a real-life version of "what doesn't kill me makes me stronger."

In the Void Battlefield, every appearance of an Origin Devourer Beast would bring about bloodshed, and human powerhouses would immediately go to suppress and kill them.

And the merit for a single Origin Devourer Beast was outrageously high!

Their only weakness might be their fragile souls. If there were Sixth-order Divine Sense Gate Martial Artists, their biological field could directly shock and kill them. Young Origin Devourer Beasts were one of the few times they were weak in their lives.

But they were all only First-order Martial Artists. Even if this Origin Devourer Beast was still in its juvenile stage, they could only flee!

Lü Yan asked, her aura becoming increasingly cold after becoming a Martial Artist. She didn't spare her blood and qi, and frost condensed wherever she walked. "What about Su Bei? We still haven't regrouped with him."

"There's no other way."

Lei Bin said, "We've already left a signal. If he sees it, he can escape... if he's still alive."

After losing his right arm, Lei Bin's mood was incredibly low. If he hadn't used the life-saving item from his family in time, let alone an arm, even his life would have been lost here.

Hearing this.

The others fell silent for a moment.

With no news for a day and a half, even though they had some confidence in Su Bei, they couldn't help but think of the worst-case scenario.

After all, he was a fierce individual who had suppressed all four of them alone during their Quasi-Martial Artist phase, so there was no reason for him to die here.

But that was an Origin Devourer Beast after all. What if Su Bei had encountered it before they did?

They didn't dare to gamble.

"Retreat!"

It was Liang Dao who ultimately made the decision. "If we continue to fight and kite, our chances will become even slimmer. This news must be relayed to the outside!"

"Su Bei's strength isn't weak. After activating the Secret Treasury Gate, his power should be on par with ours. He might have a chance to escape."

He said this to comfort himself as much as to comfort the others.

However, since the decision was made, the four of them were not people to dawdle. Fighting and retreating, they headed towards the exit.

Another five to six minutes passed.

The four had arrived at the exit of the Shattered Battlefield. Each using their full strength, their Qi Force shot out, causing the Origin Devourer Beast to stumble. They instantly charged into the spatial channel.

The next moment.

The figures of the four vanished.

"Hiss!"

The Origin Devourer Beast rushed to the front, letting out a roar. Its two forearms swiped to the sides in a fit of rage, the air pressure turning into sharp blades that sliced through the ground. Arcs of electricity flashed on its forearms!

If Xu Zhijie were here, he would have noticed that the electric arcs were no different from the ones he used!

However, a thought flashed in its eyes. It did not pass through the spatial channel but instead lurked nearby, its eyes fixed on the channel.

In the real world.

The four dropped directly from the spatial channel.

The surrounding crowd, looking at the still stable spatial channel, all changed their expressions!

"What's going on?!"

Lu Yingyue inquired from a hundred meters away. The four quickly walked over.

"It's the Origin Devourer Beast!"

Liang Dao said, "While we were clearing out other Starry Sky Alien Beasts, we encountered the Origin Devourer Beast. It's the lord of this Shattered Battlefield. We fought and retreated, and managed to escape."

"Origin Devourer Beast? Is it in its juvenile stage?" Lu Yingyue's expression changed, and he then looked at the others.

Lu Yingyue instantly got his answer. If it wasn't in its juvenile stage, these four probably wouldn't have escaped!

"Where's Su Bei? Why are only the four of you out?"

Liang Dao lowered his head. "When we entered the Shattered Battlefield, we were teleported randomly. The four of us were not far from each other, so we gathered first. Su Bei couldn't be contacted until we were leaving the Shattered Battlefield..."

"However, we've left a message. As long as he's still alive, he should be able to exit the Shattered Battlefield."

"There's no chance."

Lu Yingyue said mercilessly, "The Origin Devourer Beast isn't unintelligent. It will definitely be guarding the entrance of the spatial channel."

"However, his life token hasn't shattered yet. It depends on his personal fortune."

"But prepare in advance, contact the Military Department, inform them of the situation, and seal off this Shattered Battlefield. Once the entry requirements are raised, we'll eliminate the Origin Devourer Beast!"

Lu Yingyue quickly made arrangements, and someone beside him immediately made a call to inform the Military Department.

"This... can't the spatial channel be destroyed directly?"

Lu Yingyue shook his head. "No. The establishment of the spatial channel indicates that the current world and the shattered space have connected. If it's destroyed, the spatial tremors would cause the collapse of dozens of miles around."

"Such a loss is unbearable for us."

Lu Yingyue sighed inwardly.

The frequency of Shattered Battlefields appearing had been increasing in recent years, and the Military Department's attitude had become stricter.

It was already a high-level arrangement for him, a fifth-order Martial Artist, to be in charge of a Shattered Battlefield that a Quasi-Martial Artist could enter.

But he never expected that within a Shattered Battlefield accessible to Quasi-Martial Artists, there would be a juvenile Origin Devourer Beast.

What a shame for Su Bei. Even he was envious of his martial arts realm.

It was truly a matter of fate.

Origin Devourer Beasts were almost invincible among beings of the same level.

"Um..." Xu Zhijie spoke up at this moment. "I don't know if I saw wrong, but I think I saw Su Bei before entering the channel."

He wasn't entirely sure.

Because the figure's speed seemed a bit too fast.
