Devouring the Starry Sky: Giants of Light at the beginning

Chapter 1008 The Frustrated Infinite Serpent Ancestor

"I've observed the situation, and no new monsters have appeared within the territory so far. It seems that this matter has come to a temporary halt." The Star Lord, observing the fluctuations across the entire territory, breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Then let's distribute these seven Ancestral Cores first, to strengthen the faction as much as possible," Yuan said.

Although he was just an ordinary Primordial Ancestor, once his strength surpassed that level, he became a force to be reckoned with.

Upon hearing this, many lords' eyes lit up, and they all offered their own ideas, each wanting to secure a future for those they were closer to.

The lords, who had just been united, were now arguing like they were in a marketplace.

As for the progenitor of candlelight, he naturally didn't have that qualification; he only had the right to offer suggestions on such matters.

“Brother Candlelight was recommended by my teacher and me. In that case, each of the seven Ancestral Cores can have one for each of the lords, and then they can choose their personnel according to their own wishes. My teacher and I don’t need to do that.” Luo Feng said after communicating with his teacher.

"Luo Feng!"

Yuan was somewhat surprised, but considering that one of these two was currently the strongest in the Endless Chaotic Origin Space, and the other had just broken through, he probably wasn't really interested in this.

Moreover, as Yuan's disciple, Luo Feng was essentially trained by the latter to become a Hunyuan Lord, which was something that many Hunyuan ancestors could hardly match.

“In that case, we seniors will benefit,” Yuan said with a chuckle.

Unlike Yuan and Luo Feng, whose rise to prominence was very short, those who are close to them probably don't even have a high-level Hunyuan.

These lords have lived for so long, and not to mention those who became close later on, some of them have even accompanied each other from the very beginning as they grew up.

Just like the progenitor of candlelight, he also had a high-level Hunyuan who was like a brother to him. If it weren't for his insufficient status and contribution, he would have wanted to obtain another Hunyuan core.

However, as the progenitor of Hunyuan, Zhu Huo also cleared out a batch of demonic bird monsters and had some world-class monster cores in his possession.

"Young lady in green, you live in the best of times."

The Candlelight Ancestor thought to himself, with Qingyi's aptitude, he would only ever be a high-level Chaos Origin in this lifetime, but now he has become a world-class Chaos Origin, even surpassing him in his prime.

The lords were all satisfied with the distribution of the progenitor cores; the only problem was that the quantity was too small.

"Hehe, although no new monsters have appeared in our cultivator territory for the time being, there are still some in other places!" said the Star Lord.

Upon hearing this, many lords immediately realized that the collision of the highest level of romance in the Hunyuan space was still erupting at this moment.

This means that fighting is still ongoing in other places.

Although it may be a bit far, with a bit of luck, it could actually be even stronger.

No, it's to support other forces in the Hunyuan Space.

Some smaller factions, in particular, are probably still seeking support from other factions.

"Starlight!"

Yuan looked at the starlight. With his mastery of the Dao of Time and Space, he was the fastest traveler, aside from his cheating ability.

“Leave it to me!” said the Star Lord.

In fact, he had already set off to support other forces, which would allow him to seize the Progenitor Core and curb the rampage of monsters, killing two birds with one stone.

Besides the Star Lord, the other lords also set off, some choosing to clear out their protected territories, and others choosing to go to other places where monsters appeared.

As long as the clan core is not used immediately, the lords will seize it without hesitation.

This treasure, which is almost a gift from heaven, belongs to the powerful.

Unlike the lords who were able to quickly deal with the monsters within their territories, the other factions also encountered various problems.

Endless Ancestor and Yan Huo pouted as they looked at the six monsters, or rather, demon kings, in front of them, feeling a bit of a headache.

The six demon beasts before them were all powerful, comparable to the top thirty in the Hunyuan Space, with the leader, the Light and Dark Demon Beast, being even stronger.

That's not the most important thing. The power and nature of these six demon beasts are naturally complementary and similar, which leads to a chain reaction that can achieve a result greater than the sum of its parts.

For a moment, the Endless Serpent Ancestor thought he had encountered a lord from the cultivator camp, but fortunately, he wasn't that overpowered.

The naturally formed Hunyuan life force also has a strong foundation, with the largest number of Hunyuan progenitors, a total of five eternal beings.

Dealing with just six demon beasts isn't too difficult.

However, the six monsters in front of us are not the only ones invading the innate chaotic life camp; there is also a group of monsters of varying strengths wreaking havoc.

Therefore, the progenitors were unable to unite the power of the entire camp to deal with the six demon king beasts in front of them. The Infinite Serpent Ancestor and the Mother of Time and Space, as well as other Chaos Emperors, also led a group of Chaos Progenitors to deal with other monsters.

There's no way around it; these two progenitors are the fastest, especially the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, who can quickly descend into the member space using the Infinite World, making him the strongest firefighter in every place.

Therefore, the Endless Ancestor, the Flame Ancestor, and the Primordial Ancestor can be assigned to deal with these six Demon King Beasts.

In addition to the Primordial Chaos Ancestor who is currently fighting the monster, and the Primordial Chaos Ancestor who needs to stay behind to guard one side, the number of Primordial Chaos Ancestors that can be mobilized at this moment is not many.

Because of the sheer number of monsters invading and the uneven strength of the Primordial Ancestor, the power of the entire faction was severely diluted.

Despite having hundreds of Hunyuan Ancestors, there was a feeling of insufficient military strength.

Previously, when facing the cultivator camp, they had ten times the number of enemies, yet they were unable to break through their defenses for a long time.

"Ugh!"

The Endless Ancestor was in a difficult situation. Although he was happy to become an eternal being, he also discovered that the flaws of the innate chaotic life force were really big, with a serious shortage of high-level beings.

Although there are five eternal beings, the strongest is still the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, which is only ranked in the top ten.

Furthermore, there was a primary ancestor who was severely unbalanced in one area, possessing incredible defense but only comparable to an ordinary Hunyuan ancestor in terms of attack.

Therefore, the three eternal beings of the Endless Ancestors, along with nearly forty Primordial Ancestors, were unable to subdue the six Demon King Beasts before them for a long time.

The six natural elements of light, darkness, earth, water, fire, and wind, when used together, not only possess powerful offensive capabilities but also extraordinary annihilation power. They can be used for both offense and defense, making them virtually invincible.

The combined attack of many Primordial Ancestors was partially neutralized by the combined attack of the six Demon King Beasts, although the remaining power was still enough to break through their defenses.

But apart from lacking immortality and the intelligence of life, the monster before them was no different from the Primordial Chaos Ancestor, possessing equally tenacious vitality.

The endless progenitors were saddened to discover that they could not subdue these six monsters in a short time.

Moreover, the monsters in front of them even launched attacks during the gaps in their attacks, trying to kill the Primordial Ancestor of the Hunyuan faction.

Since none of the other progenitors possessed immortality, they all avoided the attacks of the six demon beasts, having no intention of directly confronting them.

Alternatively, they could hide behind the original progenitor and provide remote support.

As for the original progenitor, although its defense is incredibly strong, it is not good at attacking and can only be used as a backup method.

Therefore, despite the imposing presence and large number of the Endless Ancestors, only a handful could truly serve as the main force. The core of the Innate Chaotic Life Faction, similar to the Ice Peak Faction, is centered around the Nine Emperors. Although the Giant Emperor died, the later-joining Bavaru filled a position, becoming one of the Emperors.

Now the Nine Emperors of Hunyuan have all dispersed, supposedly to support the other progenitors, but what they're really up to is clear to the Endless Progenitors: they want to seize the progenitor core.

"How can we compete with the cultivators' camp when we've joined forces with such a group of progenitors?" the Endless Progenitor sighed.

Besides their ability to survive, immortal beings have another key characteristic: when they agree on something, they can unite in the most cohesive way and rarely engage in any underhanded or disloyal acts.

Just like the five eternal beings at this moment, each of them is doing their best for their faction.

"Keep attacking, don't stop!"

The Endless Ancestor, in cooperation with the Fire Ancestor, led dozens of Primordial Ancestors in an attack on the six Demon King Beasts.

The demon beasts, not to be outdone, launched a frenzied counterattack, aiming their attacks at the weaker Primordial Ancestors.

Unfortunately, the current progenitors not only have strong survival abilities, but they have also fought against cultivators and are very familiar with facing such stronger beings, giving the Demon King Beast no chance at all.

"This is an opportunity."

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor led the Primordial Ancestor of the Infinite Serpent Clan to a void. At this moment, the two ancestors were entangled with a monster.

“With the help of the Infinite World, we can descend to various parts of the Chaos Origin Space and find these monsters immediately.” The Infinite Serpent Ancestor’s expression was slightly excited.

It had been holding a grudge about its previous defeat, but it never expected that such a golden opportunity would come so soon.

The monsters' massive invasion may be a crisis for other races, but it is an absolute opportunity for the Infinite Serpent race.

Because there are too many monsters, it won't cause a chaotic rush among various forces. At this time, the Infinite Serpent Clan, which can ignore spatial distance, becomes prominent.

Upon discovering the target, the Primordial Ancestor of the Infinite Orochi clan immediately descended, killed the target, and stole the "Primordial Core" to cultivate the next Primordial Ancestor of Infinite Orochi, thus continuously snowballing the effect.

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor couldn't help but imagine his own clan becoming comparable to a faction.

"Infinite Serpent Ancestor!"

The two progenitors in the camp breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the arrival of the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, but at the same time felt regret.

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor has arrived; it seems they have no chance of obtaining the core of this monster.

"Everyone, attack together!"

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor, full of vigor, led more than a dozen Primordial Ancestors to easily defeat the monster before them.

"This core will be used by my Infinite Serpent clan for the time being," the Infinite Serpent Ancestor declared domineeringly.

Whether from the perspective of contribution or from the perspective of what is most beneficial to the faction, handing it over to the Infinite Orochi clan is the most appropriate choice.

Many ancestors understood this concept, but they were still somewhat dissatisfied and couldn't get over this hurdle in their hearts.

Your Infinite Orochi clan is already the most powerful clan in the faction, yet you're still not satisfied? Are you really planning to dominate the entire world?

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor was well aware of the discontent within his faction, but it was clear that this was not the time to consider it now; once this opportunity was missed, it would be gone forever.

Most importantly, these groups still haven't figured out their place. It's not that the Infinite Serpent Ancestor needs them, but rather that these groups need the naturally primordial life force.

If you're dissatisfied, then leave; the cultivators next door will definitely "welcome" you.

For the first time, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor felt that the ecological position of the cultivator camp was simply irreplaceable, and that it would be better if it didn't continue to grow stronger.

After taking the progenitor's core that had killed the monster and leaving it to his race as a world-class source of chaos, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor hurriedly headed to the next battlefield.

After two such incidents, the two progenitors of the Infinite Orochi clan who had been lost in the previous incident were replaced.

Then, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor witnessed a scene that enraged it beyond measure.

A lord of Hunyuan, who suppressed two Hunyuan progenitors with one hand and a monster with the other.

The two Primordial Ancestors were desperately fleeing, showing no intention of resisting, while the monster was on its last legs in the hands of the Primordial Lord.

"Starlight!"

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor roared, never expecting that a cultivator lord would also get involved and try to seize its treasure.

Although they haven't managed to snatch them yet, the Infinite Serpent Clan already considers the cores of these scattered monsters as their own.

"Serpent Ancestor, it's been a long time!"

The Star Lord smiled and with a burst of power, crushed the monster in front of him to death.

The reason why the Lord of Hunyuan could not kill the progenitors was because the latter's ability to keep secrets was stronger than the last.

However, in a direct confrontation, if one does not flee, Lord Moman once directly obliterated the main battle bodies of the Three Emperors of Wind, Thunder, and Sea in a head-on battle.

Although the three emperors of the wind, thunder, and sea are not top-tier, they are still considered to be in the lower middle range, and there are many weaker ones.

"Starlight, stop!" the Infinite Serpent Ancestor said calmly, though it was the voice of the two Primordial Ancestors of Chaos.

As for the core of the monster, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor didn't want to continue to embarrass himself, so there was no need for him to speak.

"Give the Serpent Ancestor some face."

The Star Lord gave up on continuing to kill the two progenitors. The Infinite Serpent Ancestor had already arrived, and it was unrealistic to kill the two Primordial Chaos Ancestors.

Then, the starlight, carrying the primordial core that had been formed after the monster's death, flashed and disappeared directly into spacetime.

"Thank you, Serpent Ancestor!"

The two progenitors quickly retreated to the side of the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, their faces showing lingering fear.

They have strong survival abilities, but the prerequisite for using these abilities is, of course, that their own lives are in danger.

They weren't immortal beings, yet no progenitor truly believed he could escape peril every time.

“Cultivators have all gotten involved, so we have to move even faster.”

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor ignored the two progenitors and led his clan swiftly to the next target. He had to deal with these monsters before the lord could.

Nine lords are already incredibly powerful; if they were to be joined by a group of Primordial Ancestors, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor simply couldn't imagine such a scene.

"go!"
