Chapter 1153: Frenzied Sacrifice (1/2)

Fierce roars and howls shook heaven and earth.

In the distance, the cloudy sky was engulfed by flesh aura seas of different colors. Frenzied, bloodthirsty auras filled heaven and earth.

The violent clashes between flesh auras made the entire area go dim and bright from time to time.

At the same time, agonized, ear-piercing shrieks would occasionally echo out from the distance.

All of the experts from the four great sects that were gathered in this place were flabbergasted.

Wei Lai from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace frowned and said in confusion, “Battles seems to have broken out among outsider grand patriarchs, dragons, and Ancientbeasts.

“The duel between Grand Monarch Primal Demon and the grand elder hasn’t ended yet. Why would they suddenly start fighting each other?”

“Let’s take a look and see what’s going on over there first,” Qi Lianshan exclaimed softly.

Many Saint domain experts, including even Nie Tian, cast their secret soul spells.

Nie Tian’s Star Eyes were condensed one after another, then floated towards the source of the sounds.

The desolate, cold ground had many deep, bottomless chasms in it, from which intoxicating, multicolored auras rose.

Like rainbows, the colorful auras flew at a fast speed in the icy heaven and earth, infiltrating the flesh aura seas of the outsiders and Ancientspirits.

Many Demons, Fiends, Bonebrutes, Phantasms, dragons, and Ancientbeasts had their flesh aura seas poisoned by the rainbow-like auras, and went through changes.

These well-known figures of different races gradually became demented, as if the mysterious auras devoured their sober minds.

They gradually lost control of themselves, till bloodlust completely took over.

More and more powerful Demons, Fiends, demons, and Ancientbeasts joined the frenzied killing. Waves of their violent flesh auras destroyed the heavens and crushed the earth.

Furthermore, their battle gradually spread towards the place where the humans were gathered.

It was as if their instincts told them that there were enemies here that needed to be dealt with first.

Wisps of soul awareness rapidly floated to their battle zone to examine the outsiders, dragons, and Ancientbeasts that were consumed with killing.

Face filled with confusion, Dou Tianchen muttered, “What, what happened? Didn’t those outsiders, dragons, and Ancientbeasts just reach a mutual understanding?”

“Have you noticed that all of their flesh aura seas were infiltrated by those mysterious, rainbow-like auras?” Hou Chulan asked softly.

“Something infiltrated the flesh aura seas of ninth grade grand patriarchs, and caused them to lose their minds?” He Lianxiong said, finding this hard to believe. “What in this world could have such a powerful influence on grand patriarch flesh aura seas and minds?”

Wei Lai’s expression flickered. “There actually is such a thing...”

Everyone’s gazes rapidly converged on him.

After a moment of hesitation, Wei Lai explained, “There are legends about this Star Behemoth that lived in the Primal Era, its name unknown. It was said to exude auras from its pores that would plunge any living beings that came close to it into a state where they were overtaken with killing and bloodlust. It didn’t even have to do anything other than watch the titans, dragons, and Ancientbeasts lose their minds and kill each other.

“Then, it would just need to collect and devour the dead after all the killing.”

Everyone gasped with astonishment upon hearing these words.

“There lived such strange beings? Where did you learn that, Wei Lai?”

“That Star Behemoth must have died long ago, right? Didn’t they go extinct already?”

“You’re not saying those mysterious auras influencing the outsiders and Ancientspirits are coming from that Star Behemoth, are you?”

Nie Tian was also taken aback. He suspected that Wei Lai had learned about this from the Star Behemoth that was slumbering on the floating continent.

Clearly, the Star Behemoths hadn’t died out in this boundless starry river. There was one on that floating continent.

After withdrawing his soul awareness from the battlefield, Wei Lai said, “I can’t share where I learned it with you. But I believe that Star Behemoth is dead, and buried somewhere in the Shatter Battlefield.”

“Although, I’m not certain whether the strange auras affecting the Ancientbeasts and outsiders are coming from it or not.

“However, if they are, let alone ninth grade grand patriarchs, even tenth grade outsider grand monarchs and titans might be subject to their mighty influence.

“The good thing is that since humans have such weak flesh power, we won’t be viewed as ‘prey’, so their influence on us will most likely be minimal.”
