In truth...
Li Xiaoya also wanted to kill divine beasts, but he knew his own limits. The number of divine beasts in this region was frightening, and judging by their auras and sizes, their strength surpassed that of ordinary divine beasts... Most were difficult opponents. Li Xiaoya felt that, aside from a small number he could handle alone, most were beyond his ability to face single-handedly...
Even those he could handle would be far from easy to kill...
Originally...
Li Xiaoya had planned to wait until he advanced to True Immortal, assess his cultivation and divine abilities, then come to this region to hunt divine beasts... He would prepare materials, elixirs, and other things Zhang Hong, Liu Xian'er, and the others in the Human Realm Star Realm needed to advance to True Immortal...
But from the looks of things now... the Devil Race had clearly beaten him to the prize...
That was quite a loss... Still... Li Xiaoya felt that such a large-scale operation by the Devil Race army to surround and slaughter divine beasts might provoke a counterattack from them if anything went wrong... He had even considered drawing these divine beasts together to fight the Devil Race... Yet he dared not gamble with his own life... One wrong move, and the divine beasts might kill him first...
He had only one objective: get ahead of the army of Devil Cultivators and secure the Immortal Spirit Realm first. He could not let the Devil Race take it...
Because...
The Immortal Spirit Realm was enormously useful to a Human Race star realm... Whether the Human Realm Star Realm could successfully nurture Immortal Tribulation Stage Cultivators depended on it...
Otherwise!
Why would Li Xiaoya expend so much effort carrying the Human Realm Star Realm through this perilous void of Chaos Space?
