Chapter 1455
The Strongest Beidi
Luo Feng proceeded with his initial plan, heading towards Beidi's location. In the Dim Expanse, a Beast God was fleeing at high speed, roaring in anger, "Beidi! You're already at peak Fourth-tier. Several Beast Gods in our Nest have reached Fourth-tier. Why aren't you going after Qiya, Desert River, and the others? Devouring one of them would be worth a hundred of us. If you keep hunting us, you'll only make Desert River and the others stronger. If they reach Fifth-tier before you, they'll surely devour you!"
Behind it, another Beast God was in hot pursuit. The two single eyes on the pursuing Beast God, Beidi, glowed with colorful light as it growled, "How I conduct myself is none of your concern, Kaqiong."
Whoosh!
Beidi, the pursuing Beast God, continuously accelerated, its speed noticeably faster.
Beidi knew full well that its aggressive hunting strategy prevented it from controlling the overall situation, allowing some top Beast Gods in the entire Beast God race to potentially escape its grasp. If it had acted like before—not killing the weaker Beast Gods but focusing solely on the strong ones—those powerful Beast Gods would have had no chance! The previous strategy was simple but inherently slow. Lord Yinhe Luo Feng's threat made Beidi dare not slow down; it had to constantly devour and grow stronger.
"I'm stronger than Desert River and the others. I've been devouring, constantly accelerating my evolution. I was strong in the past… and I will remain strong in the future." Beidi's two single eyes were filled with madness, and it was about to catch the fleeing Beast God.
Bang!
The fleeing Beast God's body instantly split, transforming into ninety-nine avatars that scattered. Because this was a battle between Beast Gods, its life-saving move, 'Boundary Light Channel,' would be interfered with by Beidi's 'Boundary Light Domain,' making it impossible to form stably. Thus, it didn't even attempt that move. Even if it could use 'Boundary Light Channel' to escape, it would be even weaker and face a worse death in the Beast God Nest.
Buzz!
Beidi, its face contorted in a ferocious grin, immediately erupted with a hazy colorful light. The endless colorful light enveloped the surrounding space-time—this was the 'Boundary Light Domain' unique to Fourth-tier Beast Gods. A powerful binding force acted upon the ninety-nine avatars, making them feel as if they were trapped in quicksand, their flight speed ridiculously slow.
Bang! Beidi also instantly shattered into ninety-nine avatars, each rushing towards one of the opponent's ninety-nine avatars.
Ninety-nine smaller Beast Gods furiously tore at their counterparts.
"Beidi!" The other avatars of the fleeing Beast God dissipated, leaving only one avatar that reformed into its true body, filled with madness.
"Kaqiong, die." Beidi's ninety-nine avatars also dissipated, reforming into its true body, which continued to tear at its opponent. The two furiously bit and rolled, savagely fighting in the Dim Expanse. Skin tore, and black blood splattered everywhere.
Beidi was at peak Fourth-tier, while Kaqiong was Third-tier. With the added power of the Boundary Light Domain, the battle was completely one-sided.
Swoosh!
Blood-red light surrounded a sharp claw, instantly piercing through Beast God Kaqiong's chest, leaving a large gaping hole. Its 'Boundary' was gone, and its entire body trembled, completely losing the will to resist.
"Beidi, you will surely die, you will!" Kaqiong's single eyes on both its heads stared at Beidi. "You don't hunt Desert River and the others, yet you target us… you will surely die, die from your own foolishness."
Crack!
Beidi's two blood-red mouths suddenly opened wide, simultaneously biting and crushing Kaqiong's two heads. Then, with crunching sounds, it chewed, its teeth easily crushing and swallowing. It continued to tear and devour large chunks, and soon, the entire Beast God was consumed.
"Another one." Beidi raised its two heads, its single eyes gleaming. "Still a little short, just a little more."
Whoosh!
Beidi instantly teleported away.
…
Approximately half a month later.
Beast God Beidi was frantically chasing another Beast God. Because Beidi had solidified the surrounding space, the other Beast God couldn't teleport away.
One chased, one fled!
"After devouring this one, I should be close to Fifth-tier," Beidi anticipated, rapidly pursuing the other Beast God.
…
The silent Dim Expanse, where no sound could be heard. Luo Feng stood above a vast river flowing through the void. "Why has its position changed again! This Beast God Beidi's position keeps shifting. It moves so fast, yet I have to be careful to avoid being discovered by other Beast Gods…"
Luo Feng was quite displeased.
In Luo Feng's distant Miniature Universe, Moluosa respectfully addressed the Divine Power Avatar, "Master, the information I spread back then, and my submission to you… have greatly accelerated the evolution of the Beast Gods. Normally, they are quite leisurely, occasionally hunting. But now, they are all frantic, constantly moving. Beidi is the same; it should be hunting madly right now. Because other Beast Gods can sense it, they can flee early, causing Beidi to make many fruitless trips."
"However, because there are so many Beast Gods in the entire Nest, when Beidi chases in one direction, that direction might have hundreds of thousands of Beast Gods scattered, all fleeing chaotically, some even fighting… This gives Beidi opportunities. Coupled with Beidi's superior teleportation range, it still occasionally succeeds."
The Divine Power Avatar nodded upon hearing this. "Always mark its coordinates."
"Yes, Master," Moluosa respectfully replied.
…
Even though Luo Feng knew Beidi was constantly hunting and moving, he dared not stop and wait for Beidi to settle down… because once Beidi stopped, it might very well have entered Fifth-tier.
"I must catch up to it as soon as possible."
Luo Feng transformed into a floating rock and once again used long-distance teleportation, continuously closing the gap.
In terms of teleportation range, Luo Feng surpassed Beidi.
However, Beidi could move wherever it pleased without restraint, while Luo Feng had to carefully avoid many Beast Gods. Approaching a Beast God would allow it to sense teleportation fluctuations… If Beast Gods sensed teleportation fluctuations but couldn't sense another Beast God in that direction, they would surely become suspicious and immediately converge to attack. This would easily expose Luo Feng. Therefore, he had to bypass many Beast Gods, causing him to take many circuitous routes.
"Perhaps Beidi will head in my direction, then I can meet it head-on and capture it directly." Luo Feng hoped, as the giant rock teleported repeatedly through the Dim Expanse.
…
Time flowed on.
Moluosa continuously maintained a model of the Dim Expanse, as well as light points representing all Beast Gods. From these light points, it was clear that once Beidi touched a certain light point, that light point would quickly dissipate.
Evidently, Beidi was hunting and devouring!
In the blink of an eye, Luo Feng had been in the Dim Expanse for over three months.
On a strange, bald, floating mountain, Beast God Beidi was coiled, its aura contained. Yet, the energy emanating from the surrounding space continuously converged towards Beidi, naturally forming an endless black mist. The 'Dim Expanse' was the Nest, the cradle of the Beast Gods, naturally containing special energies.
Black mist swirled, enveloping Beast God Beidi in layers.
"Hoo!"
"Hiss!"
The black mist sometimes spread, sometimes contracted. It was as if a giant heart was constantly expanding and contracting, and this state continued.
Meanwhile, in another part of the Dim Expanse, Luo Feng, discovering that Beidi had stopped moving, was naturally overjoyed and rushed in that direction. "It actually stopped temporarily! Although it's a long distance and I have to bypass many areas, I can definitely reach it within half a day!" Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The rock rapidly teleported forward.
…
The black mist heart expanded and contracted repeatedly.
Finally.
"Hiss!" The entire black mist suddenly contracted violently, shrinking completely into Beidi's nostrils. The endless black mist poured into Beidi's nose, revealing its body. Its surface began to glow with waves of blood-red light, which enveloped it and gradually intensified.
Boom!
Rumble!
Boom!
Rumble!
The space-time around Beast God Beidi trembled repeatedly. An incredibly powerful and terrifying destructive fluctuation descended, enveloping its body. The blood-red light on its body grew even denser, and its form slowly began to enlarge. In terms of size, higher-tier Beast Gods naturally had larger true bodies.
After approximately an hour, the blood-red light gradually receded, clinging to its dark skin. Strange blood-red thread-like patterns began to form all over Beast God Beidi's skin. Moments later, everything dissipated, and Beast God Beidi's entire body was covered in blood-red thread patterns, exuding an aura that made souls tremble.
"Hoo." Beast God Beidi slowly exhaled a stream of air and opened its two single eyes.
Both its heads revealed relaxed and content smiles.
"Finally… finally, I've reached Fifth-tier." Beast God Beidi was finally at ease.
Ever since the message from Moluosa, and Moluosa's suppression and enslavement, Beast God Beidi had adopted a new strategy… and had not been at ease for a single moment. It knew it was gambling; if other Beast Gods entered Fifth-tier first, it would be in trouble. But it had no choice but to gamble! Luo Feng's threat was too great. During this period, it dared not relax for a second.
"Having reached Fifth-tier."
"Within the Beast God Nest, no one is my match anymore. Desert River and the others are destined to die." A hint of madness flashed in Beast God Beidi's two single eyes.
Desert River, Qiya, and several other Beast Gods had all reached Fourth-tier. Although Beidi had an advantage before, it could at most suppress them… killing them was very difficult, just as it was difficult for Beidi to kill Moluosa when they were both Third-tier.
But now it was different; it had entered Fifth-tier! It completely surpassed Fourth-tier, and there were only a few Fourth-tier Beast Gods…
"Desert River…" Beast God Beidi instantly teleported, beginning its move. "However, I'll maintain the same teleportation range as when I was Fourth-tier. This way, Desert River and the others probably won't know I've reached Fifth-tier."
…
"Only moving now?" Not far from Beast God Beidi, a giant rock floated in the void. "Too late! Within five minutes, I'll catch you!"
Whoosh!
The rock rapidly closed in on Beast God Beidi.
