Chapter 1406 - 802: Barbaric Wilderness Mountain
Chapter 1406: Chapter 802: Barbaric Wilderness Mountain
Very soon, as the Wolf Lord’s ritual was reaching its conclusion, the vast waves of energy caused the magnificent cave, spanning millions of meters, to tremble.
Fortunately, the prearranged Origin Imprints and Spiritual Imprints concealed these tremors; otherwise, the Flying Birds and Beasts running across tens of thousands of miles in this Wild Mountain Range would have surely noticed.
This Wild Mountain Range stretches over 190 million miles, and while Exotic Beasts within are scarce, their numbers total a staggering 30 to 40 billion, with even the weakest Exotic Beast possessing King-level Combat Power, including the younglings.
This is the result of years of exploration by the Emperor of Light and the Wolf Lord!
It is said that this single Wild Mountain Range is over a thousand times larger than Earth after its great expansion.
Its vastness surpasses the distance from Venus to Earth within the starry sky, which explains why a cave here is as enormous as millions of meters.
Here, a million-meter cave is no more surprising than a mere dozen-meter cave on pre-transformational Earth.
Even beings like Su Lin and the Emperor of Light, whose True Bodies measure nearly 100,000 meters, are not uncommon but no longer considered colossal Behemoths.
Because under the sky of the Purple Brilliance Star Core, it is far too vast, swallowing impossible even for the greatest of Behemoths!
"Boom!"
A few more moments later, as the Wolf Lord completed the full ritual of the five avatars, the strange phenomena in the cave gradually dissipated.
The Emperor of Light felt a chill in his eyes as he sensed some Behemoths approaching, having picked up on the stirrings nearby.
With a cold glint in his eyes, he moved towards the direction of these Behemoths.
Through years of probing this Purple Brilliance Star Core, the Emperor of Light understood that while Heavenly Boundary experts might be insignificant among the five divine continents of the Purple Brilliance Star Core, they are more than capable of exterminating the beasts living solely by the Strength of their Bodies in this meager Wild Mountain Range!
Soon after the Emperor of Light departed, the previously desolate Wild Mountain Range resounded with the roars of Wild Armored Oxen and robust energy fluctuations.
This fluctuation could sweep across tens of thousands of miles, and if it occurred on Earth, it would shake more than half of The World.
A few more moments later, when the Emperor of Light returned, he saw the Wolf Lord who had already put away the five avatars.
At this moment, the Wolf Lord’s aura was restrained, making it impossible to detect that he was once an Emperor who had fallen from victory among the top ten Starry Sky Venerables!
"Wolf Lord, I’ve brought back two Wild Armored Oxen; we’ve secured food for the coming years. Have you decided on your next course of action?"
The Emperor of Light brought back two Wild Armored Oxen, each five or six thousand meters long and weighing tens of billions of tons.
Such Blood Food, pure beyond measure!
Even without the power of Heavenly Boundary True Intent, Mark, rules, Divinity or Sorcery, Origin, etc., the Energy provided by their mere bodily flesh and blood equals a Heavenly Boundary Third or Fourth Layer Exotic Beast.
If this Blood Food were thrown into the Radiant Sun Stellar System, it might not spark a large-scale scramble, but it would certainly tempt many powerful Venerables to take action.
Yet in the Purple Brilliance Star Core, this is nothing short of ordinary, wild Exotic Beasts not even the local powers wish to consume.
"What you said before was right, acquiring the resources required for black hole transmission won’t be cheap, and we outsiders face destined difficulties in gaining quotas; so essentially, we must thoroughly integrate into the Purple Brilliance Star Core, secure an appropriate identity, and only then explore the five divine continents for black hole transmission. But if you fit here, in the future, I can leave you as part of the Wolf Pack Faction and an Undercover Agent."
At this moment, Su Lin’s restrained aura had grown far stronger than when he first set foot off Earth, and his eyes naturally flowed as if containing the vicissitudes of the sun, moon, and rivers.
He quietly gazed at the Emperor of Light for a long time, before sending out this Spiritual Intent.
To be honest, over these years, Su Lin had already sensed the Emperor of Light’s intent to remain here long-term.
After all, this is a Star Nebula’s heart, a large grade above the Radiant Sun Star!
Here, despite suffering two heavy injuries, the Emperor of Light stands ready to potentially ascend back to his former Peak Level once more,
perhaps even surpass those heights, entering the Heavenly Sovereign realm of which he dreams.
But Su Lin is different!
He has a vast Wolf Pack Civilization he once personally fostered, too many ties difficult to cut off,
The most crucial point is, this Purple Brilliance Star Core is far too mysterious and unpredictable for the current Su Lin, as his Mysterious Devouring Force previously demonstrated in the Radiant Sun Stellar System had garnered countless Venerables’ astonishment and suspicion!
Thus, in the Purple Brilliance Star Core, Su Lin dared not release his Devouring Power, else there might truly be existences capable of uncovering his secrets.
Therefore, Su Lin did not plan to reside permanently in the Purple Brilliance Star Core; once he secured an identity and status, he decided to head straight for the five divine continents of the Purple Brilliance Star Core, utilizing the black hole transmission there to reach the Blazing Flame Nebula where the Radiant Sun Star resides!
That is where his true world and battlefield lie!
Upon hearing the Wolf Lord’s Spiritual Intent, the Emperor of Light did not hesitate for a moment, immediately throwing the two Wild Armored Ox corpses aside to begin discussing their journey within the Purple Brilliance Star Core.
After years of exploration, the Emperor of Light has discovered that the Purple Brilliance Star Core contains over nine thousand three hundred continents, each vast beyond measure, larger than the Radiant Sun Star.
If one could say that the Radiant Sun Star is hundreds of thousands of times the mass and area of Earth, then the star cores within the nebula are tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of times that of the Radiant Sun Star!
Reaching the star core means its Level has risen to Level Seven!
Even within the broader star cluster and cosmic star systems, a Level Seven star core is considered an exceptionally powerful life-source star.
In the struggle between star systems, star cores become crucial pieces, rather than being cannon fodder like individual stars.
Currently, Su Lin and the Emperor of Light reside in the Wild Mountain Range, the largest mountain range on the Star Snake Continent.
Due to the scarcity of high-grade resources in this area, along with exotic beasts and forces mostly made up of native settlers banding together, few outsiders venture here, leading to a sparsely populated territory, where various birds and beasts occupy their own lands year-round.
This is the reason why, even after Su Lin and the Emperor of Light have been here for over a decade, hunting many Wild Armored Oxen and other species, the exotic beasts and native forces nearby remain completely oblivious.
The ecosystem here is severely entrenched, yet in the eyes of the Emperor of Light, it is an exceptional place where a game-changing force can emerge!
Perhaps other major forces of the Purple Brilliance Star Core would overlook it, but for the Emperor of Light and the Wolf Lord, the resources here are abundant beyond imagination.
Even the resources on the Radiant Sun Star might be no more than this!
The Wild Mountain Range has thousands of forces large and small, among which are formidable entities with no shortcomings in cultivation and bodily strength!
Hence, not even the Emperor of Light has considered truly unifying the entire Wild Mountain Range completely,
as the difficulty is immense. Even in its remoteness, the Wild Mountain inevitably conceals celestial entities that do not wish to partake in the struggle. If the current power of the Wolf Lord and himself were to provoke such beings, even if not reduced to ashes, they would likely suffer substantial losses and potentially grave injuries.
Therefore, through communication and exchange in spiritual will, the Emperor of Light and the Wolf Lord quickly set their sights on conquering the Barbaric Wilderness Mountain first!
The terrain of the Barbaric Wilderness Mountain is extremely perilous, covering an area of over seventy million square kilometers, encircled by peaks with poisonous barriers throughout, with many bloodthirsty exotic plants and around a hundred thousand exotic beasts within.
Su Lin and the Emperor of Light chose the Barbaric Wilderness Mountain because it is almost isolated from the entire Wild Mountain Range, with rich reserves of resources and exotic beasts. Once dominated, it would be akin to the Wolf Pack Civilization’s past conquest of the Southern Territory Mountains.
Most importantly, the wilderness mountain valleys, isolated on the fringes, fail to attract any attention even if they change hands!
Su Lin and the Emperor of Light can completely replace the ruler of these valley forces,
and thereafter, upon further study of the local language of the Purple Brilliance Star Nebula, they can attempt to embark on finding the Black Hole transmission.
Now that it’s determined to conquer the Barbaric Wilderness Mountain, both Su Lin and the Emperor of Light target the monster beast forces on the mountain with targeted strategies.
The wilderness mountain houses a million exotic beasts, all under the command of the Nine Beasts of Barbaric Wilderness, each possessing at least king-level strength and apocalyptic-level bodies, with beasts like the Wild Armored Ox and Blue Mist Deer numbering tens of thousands, capable of roaming freely outside the mountains.
Therefore, Su Lin and the Emperor of Light know that attempting to take down each beast one by one and completely suppress these million exotic beasts is nothing short of a fantasy!
No amount of restorative potions possessed by Su Lin could achieve such a feat!
Even with beasts at the venerable level with comprehensive combat power around the Heavenly Boundary Third Level, it is still beyond Su Lin’s capacity to completely grind down and suppress them.
Thus, Su Lin and the Emperor of Light, during discussions, directed all their focus toward the Nine Beasts of Barbaric Wilderness!
.......
At a distance of just over three hundred thousand miles from Su Lin and the Emperor of Light, there lies an enormous valley spanning over tens of thousands of miles.
The valley is surrounded by dense thickets, a spectacle of verdant greenery. However, on closer inspection, the tips of many grass blades bear tiny spots of fresh blood, and the base of the thickets conceals bones consumed down to the bare skeleton.
It can be said that surviving in the unregulated, power-void region of the Wild Mountain Range is no mean feat for any species.
The Wild Armored Ox possesses skin as hard as Gold Essence and bones of blood and flesh, formidable and difficult to tame. Even when forcibly slaughtered, its flesh is hard to digest.
Currently, the bloodthirsty thickets naturally have their unique characteristics.
Further in the direction of the Barbaric Wilderness Mountain from the thickets lies a poisonous barrier, dense enough to almost materialize into a liquid downpour, capable of poisoning exotic beasts with bodily strengths of Heavenly Boundary First or even Second Layer of Heaven.
The bloodthirsty thickets and poisonous barriers form a natural outer defense for the Barbaric Wilderness Mountain, intertwining with it to such an extent that even a celestial being couldn’t eradicate them!
It is precisely this feature that further isolates the Barbaric Wilderness Mountain from the outside world.
Inside the valley of the Barbaric Wilderness Mountain, the cries of various ferocious exotic beasts resound.
