“What kind of flower is this?”

“It can actually devour cultivators. Terrifying, truly terrifying!”

“It’s not just capable of devouring cultivators. It can even devour the tidal power in the tides of the Big Bang. Moreover, it’s rooted in the cosmos and vaguely absorbing energy from s.p.a.ce itself. This must be no ordinary new substance. It’s very likely some kind of demonic creature!”

“Demonic creature? Whether it’s a demonic creature or not, can’t you feel that just by approaching this flower, the cells in our combat body seem to be cheering? This flower must be very useful for the cultivation of the combat body.”

“It’s a pity that I’m not strong enough. Otherwise, I would definitely give it a try.”

This flower almost shook most of the area within five light-years. All the cultivators rushed over. A few bold cultivators wanted to act first, but they were all devoured by the huge flower.

Even so, this huge flower still attracted an endless stream of cultivators. However, these cultivators would no longer act rashly. Venerables with less than 20-million kilometer combat bodies would be devoured almost instantly.

Only top-notch Venerables with combat bodies of over 20 million kilometers could barely manage to resist the flower, but it was still completely impossible to retrieve this huge flower.

Moreover, it was impossible to even destroy this huge flower and obtain some petals. Once it was attacked, the huge flower would fight back.

Hence, the giant flower was very difficult to deal with. Many cultivators did not dare to even take a step forward.

However, as more and more cultivators gathered, some of the top Venerables had already arrived. Venerables with combat bodies above 40 million kilometers were top Venerables. Even among the many cultivators, they were the cream of the crop.

“What a huge flower! I can feel my cells cheering and trembling in excitement. After devouring this flower, I will definitely be able to advance further, and even have a chance of becoming a Grand Emperor!”

A top-notch Venerable with a combat body of 48 million kilometers appeared. As soon as he appeared, his terrifying combat body towered over the surroundings, causing the hearts of countless cultivators to palpitate.

“What a terrifying top-notch Venerable. Who is it?”

Everyone was speculating about the ident.i.ty of this top-notch Venerable. A cultivator who could cultivate a 48 million-kilometer combat body could not possibly be a n.o.body. No matter how low-key he was, it was impossible for him to be unknown.

When this top Venerable with a 48 million-kilometer combat body moved his huge combat body and suddenly reached out to grab the giant flower, the giant flower seemed to have sensed the danger immediately. Its roots tore through the air and wrapped directly towards this top Venerable.

“Collapse!”

The top Venerable sneered. His combat body erupted, and those roots instantly broke. They could not cause any damage to this top Venerable at all.

“Hahaha, it’s mine!”

This top Venerable threw his head back and laughed aloud. His guess was correct. Although the giant flower was also very strong, and might be able to contend with a 20 million-kilometer combat body, if one had a combat body of 30 million kilometers, or even 40 million kilometers, the giant flower would be unable to resist it.

Moreover, he had a combat body of 48 million kilometers!

Just as this top Venerable was about to take the giant flower, a loud bellow suddenly sounded in his ear. “Eat, eat, eat. The giant flower is mine. I’ll devour anyone who dares to take it!”

Boom.

An incomparably terrifying behemoth appeared. It was Betas.

Betas was a cosmic behemoth, and it did not take the same path as cultivators. Although it was not a devouring lifeform, it was very gluttonous. When it encountered cultivators, it also liked to devour them in one gulp.

In particular, Betas’ body was too ma.s.sive, comparable to a Quasi-emperor! As soon as it appeared, the expression of the top Venerable changed drastically. He unleashed his 48 million-kilometer combat body at full force and actually fled.

A dignified top Venerable, a Venerable with a 48 million-kilometer combat body, actually fled. He did not even dare to touch this huge flower.

“Betas!”

“It’s Betas, the cosmic behemoth!”

“Why is this cosmic behemoth here too? Heavens, it’ll devour this giant flower in one gulp.”

“Betas could devour even a Venerable in one gulp. Nine top-notch Venerables joined forces once, but they were still devoured by Betas in one gulp. It’s a behemoth comparable to a Quasi-emperor.”

Seeing that even Betas had arrived, many cultivators shook their heads. There were so many cultivators in this Big Bang, but in the end, a behemoth was the one to obtain the precious new substance.

How ironic.

Betas’s eyes were fixed on the huge flower. It was almost about to drool. Delicious, incomparably delicious. Just the smell was irresistible to Betas.

Although it was not a devouring lifeform, behemoth lifeforms actually liked to devour as well. This was their nature. How could it not be excited to encounter such a delicious flower that could make its body even larger, and might even allow it to become a Grand Emperor?

“Devour, devour, I must devour it!”

Betas opened its huge mouth, which was millions of kilometers long. It sucked hard, and devoured the huge flower in the cosmos like a black hole.

Even though the giant flower was rooted in the cosmos, it could not resist Betas’s devouring at this moment. It began to sway towards Betas’ huge mouth, bit by bit.

Boom.

Before Betas could be happy for long, and before the giant flower was even moved, a huge hand had already slammed into its body, sending it flying for a great distance.

“Who is it? Who dares to stop me?!”

Betas was incomparably furious. How could it lose a delicacy that was right at its mouth?

Although it also knew very well that anyone who could send it flying with a single palm strike must be a Quasi-emperor among cultivators, so what if he was a Quasi-emperor? It already had a rough idea of the other party’s strength from that palm strike just now. He was about the same as itself, and it might even be slightly stronger. It was only sent flying and wound up in a slightly sorry state because that was a sneak attack.

“Retrieve!”

The one who sent Betas flying was Venerable Starfall. He did not even look at Betas. Of course he had heard of this Quasi-emperor behemoth.

He knew that it was impossible to kill Betas, at least not in a short period of time. Moreover, his goal was this giant flower, not to fight Betas to the death.

Hence, after sending Betas flying, Venerable Starfall immediately tried to retrieve the giant flower.

Bang.

However, Betas was very fast. It had already flown over in the blink of an eye, and collided viciously towards Venerable Starfall.

The huge combat body of Venerable Starfall was sent flying at once. The infinite tidal power was shattered, and the cosmos seemed to have calmed down all of a sudden.

This was a battle between Quasi-emperors, and it was a battle between a behemoth and a cultivator who are Quasi-emperors. It was a rare occurrence to come by.

The surrounding cultivators had long retreated quite a distance. If they did not retreat a little further in a battle between Quasi-emperors, so much as brushing against it might severely injure or even kill them.
