According to the Human Emperor, the ancient star beasts likely originated from the giant star overhead, possessing terrifying strength and numerous numbers.
They possess the strength to transcend tribulations from birth, and almost none of them fall below the Heavenly Immortal realm after adulthood. It is said that quite a few of them have the strength of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.
Its defensive capabilities are terrifying.
However, they also have many good things about them.
Their fur is the best choice for making defensive fairy armor, but the most precious thing is the crystal core in their brains.
Within the crystal core lies the mysterious power of stars.
After absorbing it, the cultivator can greatly enhance their resistance to the pressure of this place.
Don't underestimate this point.
Chu Mo has only moved forward a hundred years, yet the pressure has nearly doubled.
What about ten thousand years from now?
Even if it's not a hundred times, it's probably dozens of times more.
Improving one's own strength alone may not be enough to last until the end.
The crystal nuclei are further divided into four types, from low to high quality: white, silver, gold, and purple.
These correspond to the four realms of strength: Celestial Immortal, Golden Immortal, Great Luo Golden Immortal, and Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal.
Chu Mo dared not even think about the crystal cores of the next two realms for the time being; even if he encountered them, he wouldn't be able to handle them, and he might even get himself killed.
However, as long as one is not at the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, self-preservation is not a problem.
He suppressed his excitement and proceeded cautiously.
However, after searching for nearly two months, they still couldn't find any trace of the Starry Sky Beast.
They encountered the woman in red armor again, who was sitting on a large rock cultivating.
After a century of tempering, her aura has clearly become much stronger.
Chu Mo had long understood that the other party had been deliberately lingering in the area around him for the past hundred years.
Otherwise, after cultivating for so long, the two of them should have missed each other long ago.
However, seeing that the other party meant no harm, he didn't bother with them and just as they were about to pass each other.
Chu Mo still kindly reminded him:
"If there's nothing else, leave here as soon as possible. Ancient Star Beasts have already appeared nearby."
This was the fourth time the two had met in a hundred years, and the second time Chu Mo had spoken to her.
The woman in red armor had, of course, already noticed Chu Mo, but was just pretending to be cultivating.
Upon hearing this, she quickly opened her beautiful eyes, stood up, and asked curiously:
What are the Starry Sky Ancient Beasts?
Chu Mo said calmly, "A monster that you can't kill, but can eat your brain."
His words clearly angered the woman, who snorted softly:
"Although I am not as strong as you, I am not as weak as you think."
Chu Mo glanced at her, too lazy to explain any further, and turned to leave.
The woman in red hesitated for a moment, then followed, slightly annoyed, and pressed on with more questions:
"Are those so-called ancient star beasts really that terrifying? What are their origins? How come I've never encountered one?"
"By the time you encounter them, you'll already be dead. How can you still speak?"
Chu Mo frowned, his powerful divine sense constantly scanning his surroundings, not paying any attention to chatting.
The woman's cheeks puffed out in anger, her fists clenched, but she forced herself to suppress her displeasure and asked angrily:
"My name is Fu Hongyi. I don't know how to address you yet."
"Chu Mo!"
Chu Mo, who hadn't spoken for a century, was already used to his current state.
In his mind, there was only reaching the finish line; nothing else mattered.
The woman clearly had no intention of letting him off so easily, and continued to follow him relentlessly, saying:
"Countless geniuses have participated in this divine path, all of whom want to reach the end, and in the end, there will inevitably be a struggle."
"Now, with that ancient star beast you mentioned, it will be very difficult to make it to the end if you rely on yourself alone."
"Haven't you considered forming a temporary alliance with some people to get through the dangerous period ahead?"
The woman in red armor gave Chu Mo another deep look as she spoke:
"I know I can't make it to the end. I just hope to go as far as possible, and eventually tear through the river of time to escape."
"Therefore, we won't become rivals in the end, so you don't need to be wary of me!"
Chu Mo didn't turn around to look at her, and said frankly:
"I'm not afraid of you becoming my opponent, I'm afraid of you dragging me down!"
This honest remark immediately enraged the woman in red.
Her delicate body trembled slightly, and the half of her exquisite face revealed beneath the red veil turned pink.
The massive mounds on his chest rose and fell incessantly, creating rhythmic waves.
"Don't worry, if that day ever comes, even if I, Fu Hongyi, commit suicide, I will never be a burden to you!"
The woman spoke through gritted teeth, her clear and pleasant voice filled with a burning rage that made her want to bite someone.
Her fair right hand, gripping the spear tightly, seemed to want to crush the shaft; she was clearly furious.
Chu Mo didn't say anything more and continued walking, tacitly agreeing to her following.
What this woman said wasn't entirely unreasonable.
Because this road is too difficult to travel!
Many people want to save their lives, so they will inevitably seek refuge in groups or look for powerful allies.
Because not everyone is confident that they will make it to the end.
Even if you are full of confidence at the beginning.
After being hit hard by reality, everyone compromises.
Then they'll settle for second best, trying to hold on until that point in time, and then break through the river of time to escape.
The woman in red armor followed Chu Mo angrily, her heart filled with resentment, yet her eyes remained resolute.
She knew, of course, that Chu Mo's words were not meant to mock or belittle her.
To some extent, this is true.
But that's precisely why.
Instead, it strengthened her resolve to follow Chu Mo.
