The few Lower Gods Jiang Shu had slain might not even have the ability to escape in the face of Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts.
But for Jiang Shu, breaking the situation only required a single axe swing!
"Two on the Fourth Floor, four on the Fifth Floor, eight on the Sixth Floor, sixteen on the Seventh Floor. This clearly corresponds to what the Eternal Tower can construct, with the Seventh Floor being the true threshold. The Jiuyu Comrce Alliance hopes we can reach the Seventh Floor. Facing sixteen Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts consecutively, even I can't manage that."
Contemplating the battle in his mind, Jiang Shu couldn't help but shake his head.
This was akin to him on the battlefield of the Endless Sea, directly fighting against sixteen Peak Transformation Realm Commanders of the Demon Race in one go and slaying them all.
It's difficult!
The challenge is not only about facing sixteen at once but also because these sixteen Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts would form a coordinated attack.
Well-coordinated Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts might achieve a synergy where one plus one is greater than two, let alone with sixteen of them.
The level of difficulty and danger truly grows geotrically.
And only this way can truly test a genius!
"Slaying two Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts is easy, but slaying sixteen is hard. Fortunately, I still have more than three years!"
"Kunpeng Swallowing Technique... It's ti for it to co into play again!"
Jiang Shu's eyes sparkled. This was the first Divine Skill he learned, and many tis, he couldn't completely devour in ti. Like the Lower Gods he had slain before, their spiritual power was too lacking, their faith power too mixed, rendering their essence useless after being devoured, requiring further refinent.
Hence, Jiang Shu only used the devouring to restore so of his power, not to enhance himself.
As for Zhong Jinghuan, although a genius from the Black Abyss Alliance with outstanding spiritual power, he had gone for an all-out attack for a decisive kill. After slaying Zhong Jinghuan, he was left with only a tenth of his spiritual power.
If he didn't devour to recover himself, who knows if the remaining spectators might imdiately take action.
Up till now, staying on the Third Floor, there wouldn't be many good-natured ones left.
Only by continuously displaying his strength could he deter them.
For this reason, Jiang Shu imdiately entered the Fourth Floor. At that ti, facing two Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts was evidently better than dealing with the covetous attacks from Ninth Rank cultivators.
"These Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts wish to devour , unaware that the true form of a Kunpeng is at the very least at the level of a Demon Monarch, and the strongest among them even comprehend space, true Demon Venerables. When it cos to devouring, they're still no match for a Kunpeng. Unfortunately, my Kunpeng Swallowing Technique was cultivated from a Kunpeng Giant Egg. If I could truly slay a Kunpeng, I might comprehend the Great Dao from it."
As the internal space beca more oppressive, at this pressure, the Kunpeng's Wings slowly unfolded behind Jiang Shu.
He knew that everything in the Genius Trial Tower would be observed by the powerful.
But the vastness of the cosmos and the boundless Star Ruins Realm ant everyone had their own opportunities and different cultivation thods. Geniuses were a common sight here, so it wasn't a big deal.
As long as he didn't reveal his great secret of being able to shuttle between Two Realms.
With Jiang Shu's aura spreading, the belly of the whole Ninth Rank Peak Star Beast seed to manifest a black hole from nowhere, devouring everything!
Mucus... the vital organs... bone marrow...
"Hoo..."
"Hoo..."
"Hoo..."
It was as if there were wind noises roaring within the belly.
With Jiang Shu's every exhale, the Ninth Rank Peak Star Beast began losing chunks of flesh from its body. anwhile, Jiang Shu's aura would strengthen further.
All this flesh was devoured by him, transford into his Blood Essence Power, boosting his physical strength.
Although this slowed the speed of slaying the Ninth Rank Peak Star Beast imnsely...
The benefit gained was the highest cost-effectiveness!
On the Fourth Floor, he could devour two Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts.
On the Fifth Floor, he could devour four Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts.
On the Sixth Floor, he could devour eight Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts.
By the ti he reached the Seventh Floor, though his strength wouldn't be able to truly suppress the assault of sixteen Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts, and he couldn't devour as he's doing now, he could kill in one breath! Kill more!
Even, if successful, he could hope to battle from the Seventh Floor to the Eighth Floor.
Even if upon entering the Eighth Floor, he's imdiately overwheld by thirty-two Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts.
It would still be the Eighth Floor!
Jiang Shu's mind was consistent; the Genius Trial Tower, the words 'trial' and 'test' were very clear.
The first, second, and third floors were rely flesh-and-blood slaughterhouses.
But from the Fourth Floor onward, it was individual space, and in the event of life-threatening danger, one would be transferred out of the Genius Trial Tower.
Even a genius unable to overco the Fourth Floor was considered an ordinary third-rate in the Jiuyu Comrce Alliance, yet in the outside world, they would be dazzlingly brilliant, not easily sent to their death.
Not to ntion, his goal was to charge up to the Seventh Floor, maybe even the Eighth Floor.
The Ninth Rank Peak Star Beast rolled in the air, waves of intense pain, its agonized cries echoing through the Fourth Floor.
Chunks of flesh were stripped away, and in so places, only a layer of skin remained!
The tendons and bones within were treated by Jiang Shu as treasures, integrated into himself.
His Earth Rank Divine Power, the Ten Thousand Treasures Cross-Integration Technique, had already been cultivated to Break Limit, comparable to Heavenly Rank Divine Power. If it had another na, it might even be called the Hundred Thousand Treasures Cross-Integration Technique!
All these tendons and bones were integration treasures!
Jiang Shu's body shone with a golden light; the Kunpeng's Wings behind him were more vigorous, making him appear both immortal and demonic. The spiritual power that had been down to four or five-tenths had now fully recovered to its peak state in a short ti.
His physical strength further improved!
"It's a pity that this Ninth Rank Peak Star Beast values physical strength as well, with average spiritual power, unable to significantly advance myself. But... while the two on the Fourth Floor don't have it, there must be so on the Fifth Floor!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Jiang Shu could already hear the spatial explosions.
The agonized struggle of a Ninth Rank Peak Star Beast, if it occurred on Xuanxing, would be more terrifying than the detonation of all nuclear bombs currently on it.
Ordinary planets would be directly blown apart.
But he was indifferent.
"It's about ti..."
With a light sigh, this ti Jiang Shu didn't even employ the Heavenly Rank Divine Power from the Panwu Great Strength Dao Book, instead forming a sword with his fingers.
Heavenly Rank Divine Power, Soul Burning Blood Essence Saber.
The final strike!
The radiance was scorching, a beam of fla light as if condensed from the sun.
"Sizzle!"
Seated serenely at the center, with a wave of his finger, he completely sliced open the last layer of skin of the Ninth Rank Peak Star Beast that had devoured him.
Not a thing remained inside.
Not even a drop of blood splashed out!
It was all completely devoured by him!
The last... was the soul that attempted to escape!
"Roar!"
The other Ninth Rank Peak Star Beast, which had been guarding by the side all along, let out a grief-stricken roar. Yet, within this roar, it was more of sorrow than anger.
The sorrow of a hare's death causing the fox's lant!
"It's your turn now."
With the flip of a palm, five human figures sat atop it.
Five Emperors Sky Extending Seal!
Five Emperors Annihilation Seal!
Two great hand seals, one above and one below, fully entrapping the Ninth Rank Peak Star Beast.
Jiang Shu sat atop the hand seal, the Kunpeng Wings behind him majestic and fierce, the terrifying devouring force displayed once again.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
Unlike the first Ninth Rank Peak Star Beast, this one's devouring was from the outside in.
The beast's skin was the first to be devoured, followed by the tendons and bones, blood, internal organs...
Ti passed.
Two whole weeks later, the bodies and souls of the two Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts were completely devoured by Jiang Shu.
The whole Fourth Floor was empty.
As if there had only been Jiang Shu from the start.
"Finally quiet, just the right ti to check what treasures are in Zhong Jinghuan's storage space."
"As a genius of the Black Abyss Alliance, his status equating to a young master of the Tuoba Family, he shouldn't disappoint ."
Without rushing to the Fifth Floor, Jiang Shu opened his eyes, the surging blood energy on him nearly overflowing.
He slowly restrained himself and took out Zhong Jinghuan's storage bracelet, his consciousness exploring within.
