"What the hell is this?"
Feeling himself being targeted, Li Chen was startled and imdiately sprang up to move away from the teorite.
However, the mont Li Chen left, the entire teorite shattered instantly.
There was no sound in the starry sky, but the faint vibration was clearly felt by the surrounding cultivators, including Li Chen.
"Roar!!"
A grotesque beast appeared before the cultivators’ eyes. Though it made no sound, its roar seed to penetrate their souls and explode inside their brains.
Even Li Chen felt a buzzing in his brain.
The mont the beast appeared, it seed to lock onto Li Chen and charged toward him.
This was a creature with a lion’s body, a ghostly face, and a snake’s tail. Even the cultivators from various circles, knowledgeable as they were, had never heard of such a creature.
Moreover, it did not possess the aura of a cultivator, yet its strength was astonishing.
Even from a distance, one could feel the ferocious intent emanating from the beast.
"This place is indeed not simple," Li Chen mused to himself.
At this ti, not only he but other cultivators elsewhere began to delve into the interior of teorites and planets. Like him, so unearthed strange giant beasts, while others found treasures like Spirit Grass.
Even to Li Chen’s eyes, the grade of these treasures was extraordinary, and any one of them might be worth the investnt they made upon entering.
However, Li Chen’s luck seed to have deserted him at this mont, as he unearthed a monster instead of a treasure.
"Pure physical strength?"
Li Chen frowned and, without evading, charged directly at the beast.
"Bang!!"
Almost upon contact, Li Chen was sent flying.
The beast’s power exceeded his expectations, completely, without any interference, sending Li Chen flying with a direct claw.
After tumbling a long distance, Li Chen stabilized and a terrifying gash appeared on his chest.
This wound was caused when one of the beast’s claws swiped across his chest.
The gash nearly tore open half of Li Chen’s chest, revealing bone and internal organs faintly visible within.
Taking a sharp breath, he realized the beast’s formidable power had exceeded his expectations.
Li Chen knew his own level of power, but in this frontal force confrontation, he was slapped away by the beast—how powerful was this beast?
At this mont, Li Chen noticed that not only him, but many cultivators nearby also displayed expressions of astonishnt.
He was still relatively lucky; so less fortunate cultivators, upon excavating such beasts, were turned to fragnts in a single encounter.
Not only were their physical bodies torn apart, but even when their Primordial Spirit and Divine Soul attempted to escape, the beast would swiftly devour them, as if they were highly nourishing to it.
In an instant, the entire starry sky erupted into intense slaughter.
So cultivators initially coveted those who had unearthed treasures, but upon the ergence of these beasts, they could no longer afford such thoughts.
"Damn this place!" Li Chen cursed, his Indestructible Body frantically repairing his injuries. He saw that after slaying their targets, the beasts didn’t imdiately attack others but quickly vanished into the starry sky.
With his Eye of the Dao, Li Chen clearly observed that in vacant places, the beasts transford into streams of green energy and once again rged into teorites and planets.
Trap!
The word sprung into Li Chen’s mind instantly.
This wasn’t a place of good intent—it’s more of a trap than a test. Those lacking luck ended up like the cultivators slain initially.
And at this mont, the ghost-faced, lion-bodied beast ca charging at Li Chen again.
"In terms of physical toughness, I shouldn’t be inferior to this monster, but perhaps my Body Refinent leans towards defense, making my power fall short," Li Chen thought, his gaze narrowing.
His physical toughness was indeed sufficient, with imnse healing power, but his weakness lies in his offensive capabilities. Without using the Sword Technique, Li Chen’s attacks were rely average for the rank of Heavenly King.
"Seems I need to find a cultivation technique to improve my Qi-Blood," mused Li Chen, who had nurous Martial Techniques in mind. Though those were only Mortal Martial Arts below Heavenly Level, it’s crucial who is employing them.
An expert of Heavenly King Level, even if using Mortal Martial Arts, could unleash terrifying power.
In fact, Li Chen’s strength wasn’t weak. Even newly ascended to Venerable Level couldn’t necessarily compare, but he found it insufficient.
At least, this beast before him was stronger.
"In the starry sky, the Five Elents Rule has little power, making it difficult to exert. Moreover, my physical strength can’t surpass it, then..."
Staring directly at the approaching beast, Li Chen fixated his gaze on it without moving.
"Sss-la!!"
The beast’s massive claw scraped past where Li Chen was, yet the beast was stunned, feeling that its fierce strike had missed.
"Shadow Escape!"
Beside the beast, nurous black shadows began to erge.
These black shadows quickly ford into Li Chen’s likeness, even matching his aura completely, confusing the seemingly unintelligent beast.
In the next instant, the beast opened its maw wide, issuing a soundless roar, sweeping its claw across all the ’Li Chen’ figures.
In an instant, all the ’Li Chen’ figures turned to dust.
But after these ’Li Chen’ figures were eliminated, a new batch soon erged, once again encircling the beast.
The beast roared, comncing endless slaughter.
High above, Li Chen’s figure gradually manifested, his hands continuously forming Dharma Seals, throwing one flag after another out.
What trapped the beast was the Darkness Law, and in a place like the starry sky, the Darkness Law was undoubtedly one of the most efficient Law Powers. Li Chen fully utilized the terrain advantage to temporarily trap the monster.
However, he knew that solely relying on the Darkness Law wouldn’t hold this beast for long, so he had to set up a Great Formation to capture this beast with Formation!
