"That food…"
Sector Beast Gula watched from afar, seeing his fellow Slada heavily injured and fleeing after just one clash, and was utterly shocked.
Even Morosa and Bei Di, Pinnacle Second-Order Sector Beasts, would find it difficult to severely wound Slada in one move without using the 'Blood Burning Technique'.
One must know, the injuries Slada sustained at this moment were far more severe than those he would receive from a fight with a fellow Sector Beast followed by a sneak attack.
Terrifying, that food's strength is too terrifying!
Seeing Ender's formidable strength, Gula dared not stay there any longer and immediately transformed into a black streak, fleeing towards the depths of the Land of Darkness.
The Universe Ocean is too dangerous, even a random food item is this powerful; it's better to honestly devour fellow Sector Beasts in the nest to grow stronger, and then go to the Universe Ocean to devour those delicious foods.
…
Sector Beast Slada flew, enduring the pressure of the Yu Guang Domain, originally intending to ask Gula, for the sake of their kind, to help him.
If he and Gula joined forces, they might be able to escape from this food, but what he didn't expect was that Gula, seeing the situation was unfavorable, just fled!
"Gula…"
Sector Beast Slada roared in anger, simultaneously transmitting a psychic message, "You coward, seeing delicious food from the outside world, you actually ran away!"
"Slada, you idiot… that food can heavily injure you with one strike; his strength is not inferior to Morosa and Bei Di."
Gula, transforming into a black streak, continued to flee, mockingly replying, "If I were to save you in my current state, wouldn't I just be throwing my life away for nothing?"
"If you don't save me, aren't you afraid I'll be enslaved by that Human?" Slada roared angrily.
"If you still have the dignity of a Sector Beast, then you should self-destruct when heavily injured and unable to escape, rather than be enslaved by outside food!"
Gula responded coldly, "Moreover, with that food's methods, does he really think he can enslave noble Sector Beasts like us?"
Sector Beasts devouring each other and dying at the hands of their own kind is nothing, as this is the process of a King's birth, but to be extinguished by outside food would be too shameful.
If enslaved…
Although a Sector Beast has a World within its body, which can resist all Alien Power (alien powers) and possess the ability to devour everything, it can release black light and black mist cocoons to devour the Origin of Miniature Universes.
Furthermore, the Soul resides deep within the most important 'Internal Sector' in its body, making it difficult to enslave.
But it's better to be safe than sorry.
If Slada were enslaved, it would absolutely enrage all Sector Beasts, and they would certainly extinguish both the enslaved Sector Beast and the food that enslaved it.
Their continued existence would be a disgrace to all Sector Beasts, to be cleansed by death!
Once a fellow Sector Beast is enslaved, without exception, all Sector Beasts will unite to cleanse the disgrace.
…
As the two Sector Beasts communicated telepathically.
Swish!
Ender manipulated the Yu Guang Domain, gathering the black blood and a small amount of Divine Power tissue left behind by the Sector Beast, then placing them into multiple world rings, striving to sever all connection with the Sector Beast.
This way, even if the Sector Beast self-destructed, it would be difficult for him to destroy the collected blood and Divine Power tissue.
"The Sector Beast's Divine Power tissue has been collected; next is to attempt enslavement…"
Ender's eyes narrowed slightly, a hazy light suppressing and binding the black streak ahead, while he transformed into a stream of light in pursuit.
Although he was delayed for a moment collecting the Divine Power tissue, with the suppression of the Yu Guang Domain, the heavily injured Sector Beast found it difficult to escape his pursuit.
Boom!
Soon, Ender caught up to Sector Beast Slada, and the silver long spear 'Cold Silence' in his hand gathered formidable power before he unleashed a strike.
"Mere food, yet you wish to kill me…" Slada howled in fury, "Dream on!"
Immediately, patterns appeared on his body; under the shroud of ninety-nine patterns, his Divine Power directly exploded, instantly transforming into ninety-nine Clones that fled in different directions, thus dodging the attack.
However, seventeen Sector Beast Clones were still affected; the formidable power swept over them, instantly annihilating these seventeen Clones.
Sector Beast Slada was not Ender's opponent even at his Pinnacle; in his Clone state, each Clone was extremely weak and would shatter like a bubble if even slightly affected by power.
"Cloning to escape? Ridiculous!"
Ender's eyes were cold as he swept over the remaining seventy-two Sector Beast Clones, driving the Yu Guang Domain with his Divine Power.
Roar!
For a moment, the hazy light covering several light-years around surged, and seventy-two illusory Beast Gods, as if real, galloped forth from the hazy light.
Rumble…
The seventy-two Beast Gods instantly took form, roaring silently, galloping on all fours, and pouncing towards the nearest Sector Beast Clone.
Each Beast God contained formidable power; if it pounced on a Sector Beast Clone, it would definitely cause it to collapse.
This Sector Beast's ability to escape by cloning was indeed a formidable escape method, but the problem was that once cloned, each Clone became extremely weak.
Roar…
The seventy-two Sector Beast Clones roared, seeing that they could not avoid the Beast God's pounce, and immediately the seventy-two Clones dissipated, re-forming into Sector Beast Slada.
"Damn it! There's no escaping…"
The newly condensed Slada, his single eye on his front head, stared coldly at Ender.
His aura was even weaker than before he cloned, as seventeen Clones were destroyed, causing some loss of power.
At this moment, his strength had dwindled to its lowest point; any Sector Beast could devour him.
…
"I can't drag this out any longer; I must deal with him quickly. Sector Beasts have the ability to communicate telepathically regardless of distance; too much delay might attract other Sector Beasts for rescue."
With this thought, Ender's eyes became incredibly deep, brewing with the intent of destruction and Cold Silence, as he stared at Sector Beast Slada.
He directly unleashed the Will Secret Technique 'Molten Flame Void Annihilation Eye', preparing to make the Sector Beast lose its ability to resist, thus also preventing it from self-destructing.
Sector Beast Slada, knowing he was suppressed by the Domain and unable to escape, was about to self-destruct so as not to give the outside food a chance to extinguish him.
Buzz!
Vaguely, a pair of black vertical pupils suddenly appeared in Sector Beast Slada's vision, and the destruction and Cold Silence contained within them intoxicated him.
As a Sector Beast, he was originally the Avatar of destruction; nothing pleased him more than destruction, even if it was destruction directed at himself!
An invisible and terrifying wave of Willpower instantly descended, fiercely striking Sector Beast Slada's will.
Silently.
On Sector Beast Slada's front head, the single eye that had been coldly staring at Ender instantly lost its luster, and the evil power aura, completely opposite to Divine Power, still existed.
But Ender could sense some change: the Sector Beast had lost its Vitality.
"Has it fallen?"
This scene made Ender somewhat surprised.
If he remembered correctly, a Sector Beast's will was extremely strong from birth, reaching the Eternal True God level.
Although Sector Beasts only relied on their innate talent to launch Soul attacks, and their Soul and will attack methods were far inferior to Universe Ocean powerhouses with similar will, their will level was there, making them very difficult to be affected by will attacks.
But now… that Sector Beast had fallen.
Under normal circumstances.
The 'Internal Sector' within a Sector Beast's body would resist all alien powers, allowing its will, which reached the Eternal True God level from birth, to ignore most Soul and will attacks from Universe Ocean powerhouses.
Even if Ender reached the third level of the Divine Power path, with his will almost reaching the Void True God limit, it would be very difficult to extinguish a Sector Beast with a willpower technique.
The reason Sector Beast Slada fell was primarily because he knew he couldn't escape and already harbored a death wish.
And when struck by the 'Molten Flame Void Annihilation Eye' willpower attack unleashed by Ender, Slada saw the beautiful and brilliant destruction, and thus actively let go of his will, choosing to embrace destruction…
"No matter how it fell, I can bring the Sector Beast's body back."
Seeing Sector Beast Slada fall, Ender immediately put him into a world ring, and then transformed into a stream of light, flying out of the black mist-shrouded area.
…
Land of Darkness.
Here, endless black mist enveloped the area, becoming the Sector Beasts' nest.
Some of these Sector Beasts were fighting and devouring each other, some were hiding to absorb energy and recover their strength, and some were constantly approaching prey to hunt.
Numerous Sector Beasts were striving to become the 'Final King', and even the weak Sector Beasts were struggling to survive and make other Sector Beasts die.
Suddenly—
Whoosh!
Morosa, who was resting on his belly, both of his heads looking in a certain direction, murmuring, "Slada…"
The two Sector Beasts that were fighting stopped.
Read the error-free version at 169shuba!
The Sector Beasts hiding to recover their strength also opened their eyes.
The weak Sector Beasts, carefully hiding, also stared blankly in that direction.
All Sector Beasts froze; no matter what they were doing, they all stopped at this moment, their eyes filled with shock and confusion.
From the moment ten billion Sector Beasts were born, they were destined to fight and devour each other, with only one surviving to become the last one alive; thus, they were born with the ability to sense each other, and even transmit messages across vast distances.
"Slada?"
Sector Beast Gula, who was fleeing, simultaneously looked back with both heads; he could feel Slada's demise.
More importantly, he could understand…
To be precise, all Sector Beasts could understand the reason for Slada's demise…
He actively embraced destruction!
Roar! Roar! Roar…
One Sector Beast after another let out roars, some mournful, some frenzied, some angry, and even a hint of fear.
Embracing destruction was indeed the Sector Beasts' ultimate destiny, as only the last one alive among them could become the sole King.
But the problem was that all Sector Beasts' goal now was to survive, to make other Sector Beasts die, and then become the final King.
To spontaneously embrace destruction before becoming the sole King made these Sector Beasts feel a tremendous threat!
Because in the Sector Beasts' eyes, destruction was too beautiful, and no one could guarantee that they could resist the temptation to embrace destruction…
"Gula!"
"Gula!"
"Gula…"
At the call of one Sector Beast, many Sector Beasts communicated telepathically, for they knew that Gula had fought with Slada before Slada's demise.
"Slada fell at the hands of outside food."
Gula's voice was low, "That outside food's strength is terrifying; he heavily injured Slada with one strike, and his Domain treasure's suppressive power is extremely strong, making it difficult for Slada to escape.
"As for why Slada embraced destruction, I don't know… However, that food left after killing Slada."
Upon hearing this.
Many Sector Beasts breathed a sigh of relief, especially the weaker ones.
This Reincarnation Era was still in its early stages, so the Sector Beasts had not been born for long, and their growth through mutual devouring was extremely limited; the strongest Sector Beasts were only at the Pinnacle of the Second-Order.
Not to mention the weaker Sector Beasts, even those that had grown to the Pinnacle of the Second-Order through devouring dared not claim they could resist the method of spontaneously embracing destruction.
Destruction, for Sector Beasts, was an instinct; resisting instinct was extremely difficult!
"Gula, simulate that food's life aura and let the servants identify him; we must know his information."
"Yes, we must know his identity and strength."
One Sector Beast after another communicated telepathically.
They all knew that outside food possessing such special means would be a great enemy to their growth and even to the destruction of the Universe Ocean.
After all, born for destruction, they were mortal enemies with countless lives in the Universe Ocean!
…
Before long.
At the edge of the black mist in the Land of Darkness, the palace treasure carrying Great Thunder Star Master, King Zhenjia, and Qiu Yan Ancestral God was suddenly surrounded by multiple Sector Beasts.
"King? This, this is?"
Great Thunder Star Master, King Zhenjia, and Qiu Yan Ancestral God had been Sector Beast servants for so long, yet they had never seen multiple Sector Beasts coexisting peacefully.
"We need to know detailed information about the Universe Ocean, detailed information about all powerhouses in your Universe Ocean!" A Sector Beast looked down at the three of them.
Thus, Great Thunder Star Master and the other two quickly relayed all the information they knew.
"Do you know of any powerhouse with this appearance and using this weapon?"
After receiving the information shared by Sector Beast Gula, a Sector Beast simulated Ender's appearance, even holding a silver long spear; although the simulated appearance wasn't 100% identical, it was 80-90% similar.
"The only powerhouse in the Universe Ocean with this appearance is the Human Void River Master, Ender." Great Thunder Star Master respectfully replied.
"Void River Master? What is his background?" a Sector Beast pressed.
"He is a Universe Master of the Original Universe Human Race, and once participated in the encirclement and killing of a True God." King Zhenjia respectfully answered.
"Universe Master?"
"How could he be a Universe Master?!"
The Sector Beasts found it incredibly unbelievable.
A terrifying existence that could heavily injure Slada with one strike, and even make him spontaneously embrace destruction, was actually just a Universe Master; it was simply unimaginable!
"The fact that we have pledged allegiance to the King has been exposed; we cannot return to the Universe Ocean to roam, and neither can our racesmen."
Qiu Yan Ancestral God said helplessly, "Therefore, the information we have is from a long time ago; we don't know if that Void River Master has Breakthrough to become a True God."
"Void River Master!"
"Human Void River Master."
"This is our great enemy."
"We must treat him cautiously; if that Void River Master has not yet become a True God, we must be even more careful."
"Yes, if he's that powerful without becoming a True God, he'll be even more formidable once he does."
"He doesn't dare to delve deep into the nest; presumably, he fears being surrounded by us, so we shouldn't leave the nest, and ideally not even go near its edge."
One Sector Beast after another conversed telepathically, having decided not to leave the nest.
They would wait until they had competed for the final King, the sole King, and then sweep through the Universe Ocean; by then, even if the Void River Master's strength was great, he would be unable to resist.
…
As the Sector Beasts decided to compete for the final King by devouring each other in the nest.
Ender had already taken Sector Beast Slada's body and embarked on the journey back to the Original Universe region…
