Chapter 141 - Divine Power Absorption, Devourer Beasts Territorial Expansion
Chapter 141: Divine Power Absorption, Devourer Beast’s Territorial Expansion
While they were passing through the starfield, they saw quite a strange sight.
Countless stars were flickering.
They also encountered many ferocious beasts that were even larger than stars. These were the star-devouring beasts!
It was a terrifying ferocious beast that could devour an entire star with the strength of a god!
At this moment, the terrifying star-devouring beast was currently devouring an enormous star!
Seeing this, Sullo was somewhat shaken.
However, it was fortunate that the star-devouring beast only had the power of a one-star demigod. Therefore, it wasn’t a threat to any of them at all!
Thus, they could ignore it!
Right at the moment, one of the gods that was traveling with them suddenly had an inappropriate idea.
“Hahaha, it seems we’re going to be rich! This is a treasure! These ferocious beasts in the starry skies have devoured countless stars over a long period of time, so their bodies have probably formed crystals by now on the inside. This is a good thing! If we kill them, we will definitely gain lots of riches! Furthermore, they’re extremely weak so they won’t post any threats to us!”
Once that god finished their explanation, everyone else seemed to be nodding along.
After all, they would be able to obtain bountiful treasure without having to work hard for it.
The effort to eliminate one of these beasts felt worth it!
Hence, they began to hunt down the star-devouring beasts, acting decisively as they launched their attacks toward them.
Endless divine power continuously erupted.
The majority of them charged toward the star-devouring beasts. Even the Goddess did not hesitate in the slightest, immediately attacking one of the beasts on her own.
It was through this that Sullo realized her strength was that of a six-star God of the peak level.
In addition, her divine power had fused with the laws of fire.
This caused her divine power to far surpass that of an ordinary god, reaching a terrifyingly high level.
It far surpassed that of an ordinary god.
When her female followers saw her fighting, they went crazy as they began to shower her with compliments.
With absolute strength, she used her divine power to decimate the star-devouring beasts that were in front of her.
The star-devouring beasts were simply no match for her!
Returning to Sullo, he also decided to make his move once he saw the scene before him.
After all, the benefits that slaughtering the star-devouring beasts would give him weren’t bad at all.
It was no wonder that they were trying to fight both the beasts and each other for the rewards.
Thus, Sullo also unleashed a powerful attack of his own against the star-devouring beasts.
However, Sullo decided to only use a portion of his power during this battle, just in case something unexpected happened afterward.
However, just this portion of his power far surpassed that of an ordinary god.
Although the power he revealed was incomparable to that of the goddess, it was still extremely powerful.
Thus, Sullo similarly used his absolute power to kill a star-devouring beast before searching for the star crystal in its body.
After he obtained the star crystal, he was slightly happy. After all, it was a useful top-tier treasure that would have its uses in the future.
To be able to pick up such a good treasure along the way while heading to his destination wasn’t bad!
Therefore, the group of gods were quite happy at the sudden rewards they had managed to obtain.
After obtaining the benefits, the gods became even crazier. They hunted down more star-devouring beasts to obtain their star crystals.
It seemed like Sullo and the others had hunted down too many star-devouring beasts. Space collapsed and a huge hole that spanned thousands of galaxies appeared!
Terrifying divine power continuously erupted, causing the skies and the universe to tremble!
The gods who were attempting to hunt the rest of the star-devouring beasts were terrified by the sight.
After all, the terrifying power that the devourer beast emitted was something they were completely unable to resist.
After all, peak High God life-forms were far too terrifying to them.
They were not something that they could compete with at all.
Soon, the devourer beast began to slowly emerge from the endless space-time crack. It opened its huge mouth, creating a suction force that began to pull the rest of the star-devouring beasts toward it!
After all, the star-devouring beasts were considered its descendants. As such, it would not allow them to be mindlessly slaughtered by these gods before him!
However, there seemed to be two powerful Gods right behind the crowd of cowering gods, which is why the devourer beast did not dare to attack the group directly!
However, Sullo and the others were also within the range of the devourer beast’s suction force, which gave them the urge to flee so that their lives would not feel as if they were in danger.
After all, who knew what would happen if the devourer beast sucked them up as well!
The Goddess’ followers had already run when the devourer beast had first shown up. Sullo wanted to ask the Goddess to run away with him as well but when he turned, he was stunned by the sight that he saw.
He did not expect that the Goddess was already being sucked straight into the devourer beast’s mouth!
Sullo was faced with two choices then: to either run away like the other gods or release his divine power to save the Goddess!
In the end, Sullo chose to save the Goddess!
After all, the Goddess had been the one to agree to let him travel alongside her. She was of great help during the journey to the Divine Court, so Sullo felt that he was obligated to help her.
Facing the devourer beast’s gravitational pull, Sullo erupted with terrifying divine power, wanting to save the goddess.
However, even though Sullo’s power had already reached the peak of a five-star god and was on the verge of becoming a High God himself, he was still no match for the devourer beast that was close to the level of a sovereign expert.
In such a situation, Sullo’s strength was as insignificant as sand in the sea. There was no way for him to resist its might!
Hence, Sullo and the Goddess were both sucked in the body of the terrifying devourer beast!
In the endless silence of the starry sky, a powerful beam of light appeared as Sullo and the goddess descended!
“Where is this place? Could it be the devourer beast’s belly? We were actually sucked in!”
Seeing that they were already inside the beast, Sullo felt very uncomfortable.
After all, the devourer beast’s strength was extremely terrifying. It would be very difficult for them to escape.
However, the Goddess still seemed quite calm while facing such a situation.
“It doesn’t matter much. Even if we are sucked in, there’s still a way to escape! The devourer beast’s belly is like a universe of its own. It’s a reflection of its strength as it is an entity on the verge of becoming a sovereign expert itself!”
Based on what she could see, the Goddess judged that the devourer beast wasn’t far from becoming a sovereign expert itself!
“However, although he is very close to becoming a sovereign expert, he hasn’t reached that level yet. Therefore, we still have the chance to escape this bodily prison! We should take it slow and not be anxious.”
Within the devourer beast’s divine domain, Sullo and the goddess felt their divine power being absorbed. This made them feel slightly anxious.
“Damn it. If this continues, we won’t have enough divine power to last long enough to escape! In the end, we’ll just be absorbed by his divine domain and crippled here!”
Sullo and the goddess used their divine power to resist the absorption, which was still causing them to burn their divine power at a constant rate.
“Damn it, we can’t resist this for too long. The devourer beast is too strong. Since we’re right at its core, it’ll be hard to fight back! We have to find an exit as soon as possible to survive! We need to find out how to remove ourselves from the belly of the beast!”
