Devouring the Starry Sky: Giants of Light at the beginning

Chapter 1004 Evil God's Vanguard
Southern River Territory!

The lords constantly rotated their defenses, resulting in a stalemate with the eternal existence of the innate chaotic life force. The two sides fought back and forth, enjoying the battle immensely. Sometimes, some chaotic ancestors with strong enough survival abilities couldn't help but join in.

Following the example of the Endless Progenitors, some Progenitors also hoped to evolve through battle.

For such naturally occurring, primordial life forms, the drive for evolution imprinted in their fundamental life core is also quite strong.

In the pursuit of evolution, even taking some risks is acceptable.

The eternal existence of both sides opened up a battlefield, and was not limited to the scope of the Primordial Ancestor.

Around the border of the Southern River Territory, some naturally born Chaos Origin beings and powerful cultivators from the Chaos Origin realm are constantly participating, seizing resources and slaying enemies... much like the extraterrestrial battlefields of the primordial universe.

Both sides tacitly agreed not to interfere too much, in order to hone their subordinates.

The faction of naturally born chaotic life forms hopes to give birth to more chaotic progenitors through this, while the cultivators hope to temporarily limit the war to one place.

By directly annexing the Nanhe territory, the faction's territory has expanded by half.

The cultivator faction is different from these chaotic beings. Once they conquer a territory, they need to continuously build upon it and integrate it into their own system.

The Time-Space Network, billions of worlds, Holy Land Guidance... all require lords to build them up little by little.

Lord Luo Feng and the Ancestor of Candlelight also permanently resided in the Southern River Territory, diligently building up their territory.

The territory was increased by half at once, and it will take a long time to build upon it.

The main problem is that there are simply too few people. Even including the enslaved innate chaotic beings, there are still not enough people, so the lords have to send out clones to take on this part of the task.

The lords worked diligently to build their territories, just like old farmers. Even the lord of Hunyuan felt a little tired, but they were all happy to do it.

Building the world and transforming society is simply one of the most wonderful emotions in the world.

Watching the world cluster, shattered by the innate chaotic life force, gradually improve and prosper under their own hands, even the lords felt a sense of satisfaction.

This process not only brings satisfaction but also strengthens the connection between people and society, truly turning these places into one's own territory.

……

The southern borderlands—a greedy and hollow place!
The world-class Hunyuan Daoist Chifeng, along with two enslaved world-class innate Hunyuan beings and an army composed of enslaved high-level Hunyuan beings, arrived at a hollow cave.

Greedy Hollow is a small resource point within the Southern River Territory. Inside is a Greedy Stone that can temper the mind, a rare Hunyuan resource that can also be useful to cultivators.

The Taoist priest from Chifeng came here not to mine, but to find a greedy rat hiding inside the cave.

The Greedy Void is so powerful that even world-class beings cannot withstand the mental interference within it. However, there is a naturally primordial life form that is also nurtured by the Void and is naturally unaffected. This is the Greedy Rat.

Therefore, the Greedy Rats were responsible for mining in the cave, but they were just an insignificant group, without even a single Primordial Ancestor.

Therefore, when the cultivators expelled the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan, this small clan was forgotten. Time was too short, and the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan simply did not care about them.

The task of the Chifeng Taoist was naturally to subdue these naturally born chaotic beings; if they were unwilling, then he would unleash the power of thunder.

Although the lords took on most of the work, they still assigned a task to their world-class Chaos Source subordinates, allowing them to hone their skills and accumulate contributions, so as not to be left with nothing to do.

Because of the example of the Candlelight Ancestor, most of the cultivators who were at the Hunyuan level were also very enthusiastic and wanted to contribute to their faction.

The lords were naturally happy to satisfy this enthusiasm and assigned many tasks to him.

"Glutton, surrender!"

Chifeng Daoist made no compromises, saying that this was the territory of cultivators, and that a naturally born chaotic life form like this, which had been completely abandoned, had no right to negotiate.

You are either enslaved or you die; there is no third way!

As for the excavation of the Greedy Hollow, it's enough to leave behind a portion of the Greedy Rats. There aren't many Hunyuan experts in the cultivator camp, so their demand for these resources isn't high. We can take it slow.

The only remaining threat to the Greedy Rats is the death of their entire clan, since finding other ways to mine resources might be quite troublesome.

Therefore, for the entire Greedy Rat swarm, it was either accept enslavement or die together.

Chifeng Daoist felt he had been very kind, at least he had given them a choice, unlike those born into the Chaos World who had no choice at all.

"To be enslaved, or to accept death!" The gluttonous rat, as the leader, had an uncertain expression, unwilling to accept either option.

However, the cultivators outside are watching it closely and seem unwilling to give it much time to think.

It wasn't particularly afraid of the three world-class Chaos Origin beings, but the existence behind them prevented its entire race from having much of a will to resist.

"Damn the innate chaotic life force, they can't even defend their own territory," the gluttonous rat cursed inwardly.

“My patience is limited. Surrender, and your clan may still have a chance to continue,” the Red Peak Taoist said coldly.

However, just as the two sides were at a stalemate, a bird's cry suddenly rang out, and then a huge bird or beast quickly flew towards the group.

"Hmm? What kind of innate chaotic life form dares to actively cause trouble for the cultivator camp?" Daoist Chifeng was slightly taken aback. This was the territory of cultivators.

However, just as Daoist Chifeng was surprised, the Zoga Bird suddenly accelerated, flew around the army formation, and snatched away a high-level Hunyuan life form.

Click!

The bird of Zoga chewed for a moment and then swallowed the naturally born chaotic life form whole.

At this moment, Daoist Chifeng realized something was amiss and quickly ordered the two world-class Hunyuan disciples who were originally with him to join the attack.

Boom...

Three world-class Chaos Origin experts attacked together, but Zoga Bird was extremely fast. With a glide, it directly avoided the combined attack of the three, losing another Chaos Origin life.

"What kind of monster is this? It actually feeds on naturally occurring chaotic life forms." Daoist Chifeng's astonishment deepened as he watched the demonic bird's actions.

The holes on the demon bird's body, which seemed to lead to an endless abyss, gave him an extremely ominous feeling.

It seems that just one glance at it can corrupt one's spirit; it's like a demon.

"Could it be a monster?"

Chifeng Daoist thought to himself, but those monsters were all at least at the level of the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos, while the demonic bird in front of him was clearly only at the World-level Chaos level.

If it were the progenitor of Hunyuan, all of them would have died in a single encounter.

But whatever it is, they all have to deal with the monster in front of them first, because it is clear that the monster sees them all as food.

"town…"

The Taoist of Chifeng threw out a mountain-shaped treasure, and the power of the Hunyuan Domain that emanated from it instantly suppressed a certain space-time.

Looking at the mountain peak, the two world-level Chaos Origin cultivators clearly showed envy. The Chaos Origin cultivators were all incredibly wealthy; a single world-level Chaos Origin cultivator could casually produce several treasures approaching the level of an Ancestor.

That's all fine. Previously, due to the threat from the naturally formed Chaotic Origin Life Force, even some cosmic-level beings were able to obtain treasures that these world-class Chaotic Origin beings envied.

There's no way around it. There are 3,600 world clusters, and they're the most prosperous ones at that. It's a huge waste of resources to support just a few hundred world-level Chaos Origin beings and tens of millions of high-level Chaos Origin beings.

The treasures on the crimson mountain released their domain power, pressing down on the demonic bird like a vast world.

The Zoga Bird, which was flying at high speed, suddenly slowed down. Upon seeing this, Daoist Chifeng immediately threw out a Dao sword, which was filled with the aura of the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan. It was clear that the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan had also merged into the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan's body tissues.

While most naturally born Chaotic Origin beings don't need Chaotic Origin Divine Weapons, there are still some distinctions.

Advanced Hunyuan Divine Weapons, World-class Hunyuan Divine Weapons, Half-step Ancestor level involving a portion of the power of the Hunyuan Ancestor, as well as Ancestor level and Hunyuan Divine Objects.

However, for the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan, only the divine objects of Hunyuan were useful; weapons and the like were of little significance.

Tear!

The power contained at the progenitor level easily sliced ​​through Zoga's skin, and streams of scarlet blood mixed with some unknown corrupting power flowed out.

Even those below the world-class level of turbidity would be subject to corresponding contamination when they see this blood.

Boom!

At the same time, two other world-class Chaos Sources also attacked the Demon Bird, but either they didn't use any weapons or their weapons were of average quality.

The attack struck Zoga, but only caused a muscle shock.

"Be careful!" said the Taoist Chifeng.

Although Zoga's strength was greatly suppressed within the territory of Chifeng, he still possessed terrifying power.

With a swift grab, Zoga sent a world-class Chaos Origin flying, then spat out a ball of black and red energy, which struck another world-class being.

The two world-class Chaos Origin experts were sent flying in a single exchange. The latter, in particular, showed signs of corrosion on his body after being hit by the energy ball, as if he had come into contact with sulfuric acid.

"too horrible!"

Chifeng Daoist's expression changed; this was still under the suppression of his supreme treasure.

Without suppression, even if he wasn't at the level of the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos, he would probably have completely surpassed the strength of a world-class Chaos Origin.

"Half-step Ancestral level?" The thought flashed through Chifeng Daoist's mind, but a surge of excitement rose in his heart. Even if the demonic bird in front of him was not a monster, it was probably related to him.

As Chifeng Daoist pondered this, he hurriedly contacted the various lords to report the situation.

If what he thinks is true, there is probably a real monster behind this.

What that meant, Chifeng Daoist naturally understood: the possibility of ascending to the heavens in one step and becoming the progenitor of Hunyuan.

Thinking that the candle flame, which originally had no chance of breaking through, had become the supreme Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan just because of a treasure, Daoist Chifeng could hardly hide his emotions.

On the other side, the Gluttonous Rat hesitated for a moment while watching the cultivators fighting, then led three world-level Chaos Origin cultivators from its clan to provide support.

Although it is only a small clan, the clan has quite a few Time-level Chaos Sources, even more than ten at its peak, but it is of little significance.

Some were drawn into the army due to the war with the cultivators and all died outside. Others all ran away, leaving only four members in the clan.

Although their numbers were greater than those of the Chifeng Daoist's side, judging from the treasures the latter carried, it was clear that their numbers were not very significant.

Both being world-class Chaos Origin cultivators with similar cultivation levels, one side, equipped with various divine weapons, could be described as either a massacre or a complete crushing defeat.

"Master Chifeng, I'm here to help you!"

Seeing the cultivators in deep crisis, Tan Tao felt this was an opportunity, and perhaps he could find a way to ensure the survival of his people.

Faced with the support of the Gluttonous Rat, Daoist Chifeng naturally did not refuse. With four more world-class experts at once, the pressure on his side was instantly reduced.

A total of seven world-class Hunyuan experts attacked the Demon Bird, and their combined power was already considerable.

In the current environment, the world-class members who survive are all highly capable and have equally impressive methods.

However, when facing the demonic bird, the main attacker is still the Red Peak Taoist, because the latter's weapon can cause substantial damage to it.

Tear…

With the combined attack of seven world-class Chaos Origin experts, the Demon Bird's injuries worsened, and its pair of wings on its back were completely shattered.

Seeing this, Daoist Chifeng was also somewhat excited. He was now certain that the demonic bird before him was definitely related to the legendary monster.

"Family members, or separate entities..."

These are the possibilities, and even just having some connection to them has a strong attraction for world-class chaotic sources.

"Go to hell!"

The Taoist Chifeng controlled the incomparably sharp divine weapon and pierced the demon bird's body fiercely.

Subsequently, the six world-class Chaos Origin experts unleashed their unique powers, striking the demonic bird with devastating force.

The crimson peak circling in the sky slammed into the demon bird once more after a spin.

Despite the disdainful efforts of world-class experts like Chifeng Daoren, the demonic bird was on the verge of death.

Without the slightest hesitation, Daoist Chifeng stepped forward, grasped the divine weapon, and delivered the final blow to the demonic bird.

At the same time, two enslaved world-class Chaos Sources also stood in the way of the greedy rats.

The gluttonous rat shook its head with a wry smile, indicating that it had no interest in the spoils.

The Gluttonous Rat had also learned about the monsters and fantasized about obtaining an Ancestral Core to lead its clan to stand at the pinnacle of the Chaos Origin Space.

Unfortunately, even the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos has died at the hands of many cultivator lords, let alone the monster before us, which is clearly not that powerful.

As for the enslaved world-class Chaos Origin, their life cores had been refined, making them utterly unable to resist the Crimson Peak Daoist.

At this moment, Daoist Chifeng completely ignored these people and stared intently at the monster's corpse.

As the monster died, a core rapidly condensed, swallowing up the mangled corpse in the process.

The moment the core appeared, Daoist Chifeng instantly stepped forward and swallowed it whole.

boom!
An aura surpassing world-class Hunyuan energy erupted!
