Chapter 1451: The Five Techniques of Sector Beasts
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Struck by a thought, Luo Feng speedily deduced and came to an understanding.
Out of 33 Sector Beasts, one higher-stage Sector Beast could be born.
Based on this ratio, out of one billion first-stage Sector Beasts, slightly more than 30 million second-stage Sector Beasts could be born, one million third-stage Sector Beasts could be born, more than 30,000 fourth-stage Sector Beasts could be born, 1,000 fifth-stage Sector Beasts could be born, and slightly more than 30 sixth-stage Sector Beasts could be born.
“For now, the strongest ones within the Sector Beasts’ nest are fourth-stage Sector Beasts, and the majority of them are second-stage.” Luo Feng made a mental calculation. “Indeed, it is still the early stage of the evolution of the Sector Beasts.”
In normal evolution, it was necessary to wait until this reincarnation era was about to come to an end before the last king could be born. Yet the threat posed by Luo Feng accelerated this evolution.
“Morosa.” Luo Feng looked at the Sector Beast before him. “What are the powers of Sector Beasts like? Between the first stage and the sixth stage, what are the differences?”
Morosa replied deferentially, “For every breakthrough to the next stage achieved during evolution, a Sector Beast will get stronger than it was at the preceding stage. When it was just born, that is, at the initial stage after birth, it will only possess some basic means like splitting bodies to escape, or swallowing origins of miniature universes… These are the most basic means that all Sector Beasts are capable of.”
Luo Feng felt a sudden burst of pressure.
“The moment a Sector Beast crossed over to second-stage, its power naturally becomes stronger, and it will gain an additional supernatural prowess,” Morosa explained. “That is the ability to use the blood burning technique.”
“Blood burning technique?” Luo Feng responded. “That was the technique that you used previously, the move of shooting blood light with your eyes.”
He could still remember the first time he’d had to fight Morosa. He had used the Universe Chain to bind him. Yet, with both eyes shooting those bloody lights, Morosa had managed to break through the chains and had escaped. At that time, its power had been different by two levels.
Morosa replied deferentially, “That’s right, my Master. By burning up the blood within the body and transforming it to bloody light, my power will skyrocket! This is a commonly used combat method. Previously, when I crossed paths with Master’s Teacher, Primal Chaos City Leader, and his company, I was merely a Sector Beast at the level of second-stage pinnacle. Therefore, confronting them was extremely toilsome for me, and I had to execute the blood burning technique several times.”
Luo Feng nodded.
“The blood burning technique merely consumes the blood. It is not harmful to its origin,” Morosa said. “If a Sector Beast moves up to the third stage, it will acquire a method that was truly meant for escaping: Sector Light Passageway. This method seems harmless when not executed, yet the moment it is executed, the Sector Beast will be able to escape for sure almost all the time. But this method is, on the contrary, harmful to its origin.”
“This was the passageway that was filled with colored lights,” recalled Luo Feng. “The one that previously allowed you to escape via the method of instant transportation.”
Morosa nodded. “Yes, those colored lights are actually sector lights. The energy released when I blazed the ‘sector’ within my body. This is an energy of time and space, and it could instantly construct a passageway of time and space where I can transport myself away. However, burning up the sector… the sector is the origin of every Sector Beast. That previous time, I had initially thought that declassing myself from a third-stage to second-stage Sector Beast would suffice for me to escape; it had never crossed my mind that Master also has a method that allows you to exert your influence within time and space. Therefore, I was forced all the way back to be a first-stage Sector Beast just so I could escape.”
Luo Feng fell deep into thought. He had relied on “single-thought void space” to keep this Sector Beast suppressed. A single-thought void space had absolute control over that space. Therefore, it was naturally able to exert an influence over the Sector Light Passageway.
“What about stepping up to the fourth stage?” Luo Feng continued to ask.
Enslaving a Sector Beast was advantageous to him, as he could learn every single detail about the Sector Beasts and also understand all the methods they would deploy. Then, as much as he pleased, he could redeem any treasures from the World of Jin that would be useful in subduing the Sector Beasts.
“The moment a Sector Beast progresses to the fourth stage, the sector inside its body gets even more powerful.” Morosa sighed. “Without burning up, the sector light within its body can be dispersed to the outside world, thus affecting the outside world. The region that the sector light is scattered all over is known as Sector Light Domain! Within Sector Light Domain, the Sector Beasts’ control over the area is greatly increased, and their power will be exalted. Thus, humans like Master—yourself—would be bound to feel their influence.”
Sector Light Domain? Luo Feng started to worry. This seemed to be a little like a single-thought void space.
“If a Sector Beast progresses into the fifth stage, it will acquire a killer move with an implicit intention of destroying the origin,” Morosa lamented. “From birth, a Sector Beast never really possesses the true prowess to kill. The methods it knows only involve the consumption of energy, the burning of blood, and escape techniques—until, at this stage, it finally possesses a killer move. It is a technique named Destruction. This is why, advancing from a fourth-stage Sector Beast to a fifth-stage Sector Beast, there is a great leap in power.”
Luo Feng’s expression became solemn.
“How powerful?” Luo Feng asked.
“Once ‘Destruction’ is executed, destroying a miniature universe should be a piece of cake,” Morosa said.
Luo Feng muttered to himself. To destroy the miniature universe of a true god, an outburst of pinnacle combat power of a true god of void space was required. If he had relied on any secret technique on blazing godly power—or relied on Wu Qi God, Blood Ghost Blade, or Shi Wu Wings—he could still attain this level.
“How terrifying.” Luo Feng shuddered at the thought of this.
“This killer move only contained the partial prowess of destroying the origin,” Morosa said. “Only the true and last king of all Sector Beasts wields the complete prowess of destroying the origin. A fifth-stage Sector Beast… when it executes this killer move, it also has to pay quite a heavy price, as this is extremely energy-consuming. It might not be willing to execute it so easily.”
“What about the sixth stage?” Luo Feng persisted in asking about every single detail.
“The sixth stage…” Morosa said, momentarily startled. Then slowly, he said, “The moment a Sector Beast enters the sixth stage, it will almost be as good as telling the other Sector Beasts that all hope is gone. This sixth-stage Sector Beast will eliminate everything that poses a threat to it. Right away, it will kill all other fifth-stage Sector Beasts that might be a threat to it, and it will do so as early as it can. So long as it is not a foolish Sector Beast, the first to enter the sixth stage will almost certainly become the king.”
Even though it had been enslaved, Morosa was still quite obsessed with the title of king of the Sector Beasts. After all, since birth, it had been fated to live with the purpose of becoming king.
Luo Feng was quick to return with another question. “What is special about this sixth-stage Sector Beast?”
“In terms of ability, it would be slightly stronger than the fifth-stage Sector Beasts,” Morosa said. “Because it possesses a much greater amount of power, the technique Destruction can be executed a great number of times.”
“What is special about it?” Luo Feng asked without a pause.
There was something special about these Sector Beasts at each stage; it was no different for the sixth stage Sector Beasts.
“Ten million other bodies,” Morosa responded slowly.
“What?” Luo Feng’s mind blanked out for the moment.
“This is also why the first Sector Beast who becomes a sixth-stage Sector Beast is most certainly going to become the king,” Morosa said. “Crossing over to the sixth stage, the increase in combat power is not considered tremendous, but when equipped with the ability to execute technique of ten million bodies, the Sector Beast will be able to divide its body into ten million other bodies and scatter them all over Universe Ocean in its attempt to hide from enemies. Even if you meet one of the ten million bodies, fighting with it and killing it would only mean that you have gotten rid of one of its other bodies. It would not have much of an effect on it. But, of course, out of the ten million other bodies, there will still be the original body.”
Morosa continued, “That original body will be the one with the strongest combat power. The other bodies are generally very weak… Those other bodies are not used for the purpose of battle, but rather, more for increasing the chance of survival. So long as there is one other body that remains alive, it will be able to rapidly absorb energy to restore power. Then, once again, it can recover back to the sixth-stage pinnacle. So even if the 100-plus fifth-stage Sector Beasts were to combine forces and kill the original body of a sixth-stage Sector Beast, after a period of time, another body of the sixth-stage Sector Beast, which has been absorbing energy, would once again appear…”
Luo Feng found it all so crazy. A Sector Beast gained a new ability each time it went up one stage. By the time it reached the sixth stage, it would gain the ability to execute “ten million bodies.”
“How do I kill it?” Luo Feng asked.
“First,” Morosa began, “by killing the soul! So long as you manage to attack and kill the soul of any of its bodies, all the other bodies will be annihilated once and for all. And, of course, for the sixth-stage Sector Beast, its soul will be incomparably powerful… Even for you, my Master, it is impossible for you to kill its soul. At least for now.”
Luo Feng nodded.
“Second,” Morosa continued, “kill all the fifth-stage Sector Beasts that pose any threat to you. Killing all the leaders within the pack will ensure that no sixth-stage Sector Beast can be born.”
Luo Feng understood. It was a precautionary measure.
“Third,” Morosa went on, “is through the influence of fate.”
“Fate?” Luo Feng was befuddled.
“Mmm.” Morosa nodded. “The fate for all one billion Sector Beasts is ultimately to give birth to a king, so there are a few ironclad rules that must be adhered to. For instance, after a sixth-stage Sector Beast is born, if another sixth-stage Sector Beast emerges, the two must fight one another to the death. Even all their other bodies must be involved. The victor lives on while the defeated one shall be annihilated. This is why, for sixth-stage Sector Beasts, no matter what, there will only be one who truly lives at any point in time. Two sixth-stage Sector Beasts fighting one another to the death—this is an ironclad rule.
“There is also a specific time limit in which all the living Sector Beasts must fight one another in life-and-death battle. This is the final time limit. Or, for instance, if there are only two Sector Beasts remaining, where one is at the fifth stage and one is at the fourth stage, then they must fight one another… The surviving one becomes king.” 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Luo Feng was shocked to learn this. “You are saying that a fifth-stage Sector Beast can also become king?”
“Yes.” Morosa nodded. “Our fate dictates that out of one billion Sector Beasts, the final one standing will be king, regardless of whether it is at the first stage or the sixth stage. In the end, there is one survivor! So long as the others are dead, only one needs to survive. It will be speedily exalted to the position of king. Of course, under normal circumstances, the final one standing will be a sixth-stage Sector Beast. ”
What Morosa said weighed heavily on Luo Feng’s mind. These creatures were truly worthy of representing destruction. Even without a king, they were already so terrifying.
Crossing over to the second stage, there was the blood burning technique. Crossing over to the third stage, there was the Sector Light Passageway technique. Crossing over to the fourth stage, there was the Sector Light Domain technique. Crossing over to the fifth stage, there was the Destruction technique. Crossing over to the sixth stage, there was even the ten million bodies technique.
What would it be like if one of these Sector Beasts actually became king?
“The moment a king is born,” Morosa said with a heavy heart, “no one shall be able to stop it! Master, even if you are ten or 100 times stronger, you will still be unable to stop the final king. This is because the king of Sector Beasts does not actually need to be present to make a move. It is able to breed many powerful warriors, and any single one of these warriors is already more terrifying than a sixth-stage Sector Beast. Even if you managed to defeat one, it would breed another warrior that will be stronger than it was. In the end, you will be the one being annihilated.”
******
Luo Feng finally understood that the willpower of the origin held him in high regards. Given the potential and power of the Sector Beasts, even without evolution, ten million of them would be able to subject the various races of Universe Ocean to tens or even hundreds of rounds of extermination.
Relying on the other great beings of Universe Ocean, there really was not a trace of hope. Even for him, there was only a single trace of hope! But the greater possibility was extermination.
“Master,” Morosa said solemnly. “I have one more matter I need to inform you about. This matter is of the utmost importance.”
“Hmm?” Luo Feng was taken aback.
Morosa continued gravely. “From the moment I came under your command, millions of Sector Beasts from our Sector Beast nests caught wind of the news. This is because all of us Sector Beasts are able to detect one another, so they are all able to detect current goings-on. From that moment, all the Sector Beasts became extremely angry. They see Master as their greatest enemy! At the same time, I also became their greatest enemy, and everyone will want to kill me and you, my Master. Also, their evolution will certainly be greatly enhanced… Master, you must deal with those Sector Beasts as soon as possible. If we delay for too long, I’m afraid we might allow the births of too many fifth-stage Sector Beasts.”
