Chapter 2882: Chapter 2882: Chaos Gate

"Fortunately, the strength of this Star-Devouring Beast is only equivalent to a Divine Emperor Realm Expert. If it were comparable to a Divine Emperor, our losses would have been magnified several times."

The Spirit Sea Divine Emperor slashed the Star-Devouring Beast with a Palm Blade, and after collecting the Beast Core, spoke in a tone full of relief.

Meanwhile, other experts had just witnessed several Divine Emperor Realm Experts falling prey to the Star-Devouring Beast, thus truly experiencing the beast’s immense power and terrifying nature, which made them deeply apprehensive.

So during the subsequent journey, they were all extremely cautious and vigilant, deeply afraid that another Star-Devouring Beast might suddenly spring out from beside them and attack, devouring them.

The vigilance of the gods paid off. After traveling tens of thousands of miles, another Star-Devouring Beast suddenly emerged and attacked. Although it caused some casualties among the gods, this time they reacted in time, and without requiring the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor’s intervention, they united and defeated the Star-Devouring Beast.

"The Beast Core of the Star-Devouring Beast contains vast Divine Power, one of which can rival thousands of Purple Divine Crystals, making it excellent for cultivation. Whoever contributed the most just now shall keep this Star-Devouring Beast’s Core!"

The Spirit Sea Divine Emperor said to the gods who had jointly defeated the Star-Devouring Beast.

Upon hearing this, the gods’ eyes brightened, not expecting the Beast Core of the Star-Devouring Beast to hold such high value.

And through the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor, the gods also learned that acquiring Purple Divine Crystals is much more challenging than Blue Divine Crystals, making it clear how fortunate one would be to obtain a Star-Devouring Beast’s Core.

Therefore, many experts not only ceased to fear the Star-Devouring Beasts but even hoped they would appear more frequently, giving them a chance to acquire a few Beast Cores themselves.

Under the protection of Fang Bai, the Great Might Divine Emperor, and Rongrong, the gods of the Emperor’s Palace did not suffer any casualties.

In Fang Bai’s words, he did not expect the gods of the Emperor’s Palace to contribute significantly to fighting the Star-Devouring Beasts, but only hoped they could protect themselves.

After all, the cultivation level of the gods of the Emperor’s Palace was mostly at the Divine King Realm, and when encountering Star-Devouring Beasts, they must unite and form a Formation to contend with them.

Moreover, each god of the Emperor’s Palace possesses an Innate Spiritual Root, with great potential for future cultivation. It’s possible for them to become Divine Emperor God Emperors, and perishing in the Purple Crystal Sea now would be truly regrettable.

Therefore, although Fang Bai brought the gods of the Emperor’s Palace to the Purple Crystal Sea, his primary task was to protect the gods of the Emperor’s Palace. If any of them were to fall, he would feel heartbroken and regretful.

Fang Bai repeatedly urged them to prioritize self-preservation when encountering Star-Devouring Beasts and not to act rashly, lest they bring about a life-and-death disaster.

The gods of the Emperor’s Palace heeded Fang Bai’s words and did not dare to disobey. When the other gods enthusiastically joined forces to attack the Star-Devouring Beast earlier, the gods of the Emperor’s Palace knew that whether they participated or not would not influence the outcome, so they adopted a strategy of keeping their forces in reserve, allowing the other gods to unite and slay the Star-Devouring Beast.

Only after learning that the Beast Core of a Star-Devouring Beast greatly aids in cultivation did the gods of the Emperor’s Palace feel a tempting urge.

"For now, don’t rush to seize the Beast Core. Once your strength grows, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Fang Bai said this to the gods of the Emperor’s Palace.

He believed that only when the gods of the Emperor’s Palace could unite and match the power of a Divine Emperor Realm Expert could they truly fear nothing in the Purple Crystal Sea and possess the ability to protect themselves.

After slaying two Star-Devouring Beasts, the gods no longer feared them as much and even hoped more would appear, thinking that by slaying them, they might gain a Beast Core.

However, to their disappointment, even upon reaching the center of the Purple Crystal Sea, no more Star-Devouring Beasts appeared.

At the heart of the Purple Crystal Sea, on a vast meteorite spanning a hundred miles, they encountered over a dozen legendary Divine Emperors, whose oppressive power was astonishing, each matching the strength of the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor.

On the surrounding giant meteorites, thousands of Divine Emperor Realm Experts had gathered.

These Divine Emperor Realm Experts had been summoned earlier by the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor and others, having contributed greatly in the previous battles against the Star-Devouring Beasts but also paying a heavy price.

Seeing the arrival of the Great Might Divine Emperor and other Divine Emperor Realm Experts, shouts of welcome erupted from the Divine Emperor Realm Experts standing on the surrounding meteorites, expressing their warm welcome.

"See that Black Hole ahead? The Star-Devouring Beasts that have appeared in the Divine Realm in recent years emerged from there."

The Spirit Sea Divine Emperor pointed to a massive Black Hole in the starry sky, his expression serious as he spoke.

The gods looked intently, seeing the Black Hole, spanning tens of thousands of miles, seemingly a massive collapse of the starry sky, unfathomably deep and terrifying.

The Black Hole slowly rotated, and its formidable suction force drew everything that ventured near into it, swallowing them into oblivion without a trace.

Fang Bai personally saw a hundred-mile-wide meteorite being drawn into the Black Hole, as though pulled by an invisible hand, vanishing without a trace.

"Where is the Chaos Gate?"

Fang Bai recalled that the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor had mentioned the Star-Devouring Beasts’ connection to the Chaos Gate, prompting the question.

The Spirit Sea Divine Emperor replied, "The location of the Chaos Gate is not fixed. Previously, it was in the starry sky millions of miles away, and now no one knows where it has shifted. Furthermore, it appears and disappears frequently, making it extremely hard to find."

Pausing, he continued, "However, the Star-Devouring Beasts are incredibly sensitive to the Chaos Gate. As soon as they emerge from the Black Hole, they immediately head towards where the Chaos Gate is located. So, to find the Chaos Gate, we merely need to follow the Star-Devouring Beasts."

"What is the purpose of the Star-Devouring Beasts searching for the Chaos Gate?"

Rongrong asked curiously.

The Spirit Sea Divine Emperor responded, "It’s said that beyond the Chaos Gate lies the Chaos Realm, and the chaotic energy there is extremely beneficial for the growth of Star-Devouring Beasts. Therefore, the Star-Devouring Beasts emerge from the Black Hole, aiming to reach the Chaos Gate, likely to enter the Chaos Realm." ⅇ𝒃𝚗ℴ

"What kind of world is the Chaos Realm?"

An expert couldn’t help but ask again.

This was a question almost all experts, including Fang Bai, were eager to understand.

The Spirit Sea Divine Emperor shook his head and said, "I’ve never been to the Chaos Realm, so I don’t know what it’s like there. However, it’s said that all living beings there are Divine Emperor Realm Experts."

At this point, he smiled wryly and continued, "Perhaps you’re wondering why we Divine Emperors don’t go to the Chaos Realm. The answer is simple: we’ve attempted to enter through the Chaos Gate, only to be turned away. The Chaos Gate is an intricate formation gate imbued with chaotic energy that we cannot unravel, hence we cannot enter."
