Chapter 2154 Star Devourer

This strange passage was not short. Lu Ye rushed all the way for dozens of breaths before he saw the Star Abyss Gate in front of him.

There were dozens of pursuers behind him, and those giants could not distinguish between friend and foe. Many Star Abyss creatures who were struggling to make their way through the passage were smashed to pieces by them.

Rushing to the gate of Xingyuan, Lu Ye leaped up and rushed out.

The next moment, his whole body tensed up and he stood still, not daring to move, because at that moment, countless eyes were focused on him, and many of them made him feel uncomfortable.

He had anticipated this situation, because he had known about the situation in Xingyuan more than ten years ago.

He immediately raised his arm and shouted: "I am following the order of Lord Yin Luo to explore the starry sky intelligence and report back. Everyone, please retreat immediately!"

The restlessness around them suddenly subsided, and pairs of eyes looked at him in surprise and doubt. After seeing his face clearly, several Rong Dao strongmen who had been guarding here raised their hands and waved.

Lu Ye glanced around and saw familiar faces. They were the ten Rong Dao masters who had been guarding here all those years ago.

In this place, the name Yin Luo is still very useful...

He breathed a sigh of relief, and without daring to stay, he quickly rushed towards the Qing Palace.

Halfway through, he turned around to look back, wanting to see if the giant creatures that were chasing him would rush out, but to his surprise, there was no movement at the Star Abyss Gate, and those dozens of giant creatures showed no signs of chasing him out.

I was surprised for a moment. Could it be that those giant creatures can only move in the passage? Otherwise, why wouldn't they come out?

And there is no trace of them in the starry sky.

Suddenly, a very familiar breath came from the front. When Lu Ye turned around, he saw a small figure rushing towards him like an arrow, directly hitting him in the arms, hugging his body like an octopus, burying his head, sniffing greedily.

Duan Bo's figure appeared right behind him, just watching from a distance.

After a long while, Yin Luo raised her head, and Lu Ye felt that his clothes were wet with her saliva.

"Lu Ye, you came back to see me? Hiss..."

Lu Ye's eyes twitched, and he pulled her off him: "Of course, this is what we agreed on!"

Yin Luo smiled with curved eyes: "You are so nice!"

Lu Ye held her hand and said, "Let's go back to Qing Palace first." He wanted to ask Duan Bo about what happened just now. Duan Bo should know something about the situation.

A moment later, in the Qing Palace, Yin Luo licked her lips with a look of endless aftertaste on her face. In this short period of time, she had already eaten three clones of Lu Ye's precious blood, but she still seemed unsatisfied. She kept looking towards Lu Ye from time to time, obviously wanting more.

Lu Ye pretended not to see it and was talking to Duan Bo.

"Many Star Abyss cultivators may not encounter the Star Abyss Gate in their entire lives. This is the first time I have encountered it. I have never entered it before, so I don't know what the scene is like after entering the Star Abyss Gate. But according to your description, it should be the Star Devourer."

"Star Devourer?" Lu Ye frowned.

"Even in the Star Abyss, this is a peculiar existence. They are similar to star beasts, but they are not star beasts. They feed on the starry sky. They have a very special ability to find some weak points in the starry sky, and then break them open and devour the essence of the starry sky. In this process, the Gate of the Star Abyss will be born."

Lu Ye was confused: "I still don't quite understand. Uncle Duan means that the birth of the Star Abyss Gate is related to the Star Devourer?"

Duan Bo said, "Not all Xingyuan Gates are like this, but some of them are." After a pause, he said, "Have you ever been bitten by a mosquito?"

"nature."

"That's right. To all the stars, the Star Devourers are just blood-sucking mosquitoes. Wounds will appear where they are bitten, and the Star Abyss creatures can follow these wounds and kill their way into the stars."

Lu Ye tried to think about it. Outside the starry sky, a huge devourer was crawling, with its long mouthparts poking into the starry sky. He was immediately horrified: "In other words, there is a Star Abyss Devourer biting my starry sky now?"

"Yes, the passage you walked through was the trace left by its mouthparts, so you killed those Xingyuan creatures in it and alarmed it. The nine giant creatures you saw were just projections of its thoughts."

No wonder there were no Dao bones left after killing him...

"But, if that's the case, then why can't I see it?" Lu Ye was puzzled.

Outside the Star Abyss Gate, Lu Ye only saw numerous Star Abyss creatures, but no Devourers.

Duan Bo gave him a meaningful look and said, "In Xingyuan, there are many things you can't see, but just because you can't see them doesn't mean they don't exist."

"Then how can we see it?" Lu Ye asked in a deep voice.

If the birth of the Star Abyss Gate is related to the so-called Star Abyss Devourer, then the solution is simple, just kill it!

But how can you kill something you can't see? So first you have to be able to see it.

Duan Bo said: "Practice well, and when you are strong enough, you will be able to see it naturally."

"May I ask Uncle Duan, to what extent can one see it?"

"Fusion? Combination? Who knows? Anyway, I can't see it now."

Yin Luo suddenly poked his little head out from Lu Ye's waist and said, "Are you talking about that big mosquito?"

Lu Ye looked down at her, his expression changed: "Yin Luo, can you see that?"

Yin Luo nodded, then shook his head: "I can't see it now, but I have seen it before."

"Can you help me kill it?" Lu Ye said with expectation: "If you help me kill it, I will give you ten clones!"

Duan Bo looked at Lu Ye with contempt, as if he was looking at a sinister villain.

"Ten!" Yin Luo's eyes were round and sparkling, but he soon turned bitter and shook his head, saying, "No, I can't beat it, it's a combined Dao!"

Hedao!

Lu Ye was shocked. Yin Luo was now at the peak of Rong Dao. Although he was only one step away from He Dao, he could not be a match for He Dao, just like Ru Dao could not be a match for Rong Dao. The gap in the Dao power that each could control was too great.

The Star Devourer is actually at the He Dao level, which makes things difficult.

However, Yin Luo soon cheered up again: "Don't worry, Lu Ye, I will practice hard and advance to the Dao as soon as possible, and then I will kill it!" It can be seen that the ten clones are very tempting to her.

"Okay, okay, then I'll wait for that day to come." Lu Ye nodded continuously.

Then he thought of another question: "Uncle Duan, since the Star Devourer's mind projection has the strength of nine paths, why has it never invaded the starry sky?"

Duan Bo sneered, "Are you stupid? Since it wants to devour the essence of the starry sky, of course it won't take the initiative to destroy the starry sky. For mosquitoes, only living people are worth sucking blood. Have you ever seen a mosquito sucking the blood of a dead person?"

There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with what you said...

However, after listening to Duan Bo's words, Lu Ye finally understood why the practice of starry sky cultivators became increasingly difficult after the appearance of the Star Abyss Gate. This was undoubtedly because a large amount of the entire starry sky's essence was lost.

"The Star Abyss Devourers are called minions of the Star Abyss will, but their greatest function is to open the gate to the Star Abyss. Conquering the starry sky is the job of us, the creatures of the Star Abyss." Duan Bo said again.

Lu Ye was thoughtful.

Looking back now, my decision to enter Xingyuan was the right one, because only here can I improve my strength faster. Hiding in the starry sky is temporarily safe, but it is not a long-term solution.

In order to improve your strength, you have to kill the enemies and take their bones.

Lu Ye looked down at Yin Luo and patted her head: "Yin Luo, do you remember our previous agreement?"

Yin Luo blinked: "What agreement?"

It has been more than ten years, and she almost forgot what Lu Ye's blood clone tasted like, so how could she remember any agreement?

"The agreement is for 100 Dao Bones every month!" Lu Ye reminded him. With his current strength, it is not difficult to obtain Dao Bones, but it would be better if there were extra gains every month.

Anyway, as long as I stay in Qing Palace, I will definitely have to provide Yin Luo with the precious blood clone from time to time.

He had taken some careful notice when he came here before. More than ten years had passed, and the number of Star Abyss creatures gathered here seemed to be even larger. So many Star Abyss creatures were enough to meet his needs for cultivation.

"Well..." Yin Luo looked troubled.

"What?" Lu Ye was puzzled.

Duan Bo said leisurely, "If you still want to obtain Dao bones from the young lady, you'd better give up this idea. It's time to change now."

Lu Ye frowned: "What do you mean?"

Duan Bo said: "Although Xingyuan is full of chaos and killing, there is only one exception. That is, after the Xingyuan Gate is opened, all the creatures gathered on this side of the Xingyuan Gate will be subject to an invisible constraint and will no longer be able to kill each other. Even the young lady cannot break this constraint."

"Is there such a thing?" Lu Ye was extremely stunned.

After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that I did not see any fighting just now. In the past, with so many Star Abyss creatures gathered together, such peace would basically be impossible.

He didn't pay much attention to it before, but now he understood the whole story after listening to Duan Bo's words.

And Duan Bo would not deceive him about such a thing.

"What if Rong Dao comes to seize the Xingyuan Gate?" Lu Ye asked.

Duan Bo shook his head and said, "When the Xingyuan Gate was opened, the young lady had already integrated her own mark into it. In other words, this Xingyuan Gate is hers, and no one will fight for it anymore. All fights will happen before the Xingyuan Gate is opened. This is the rule!"

Lu Ye didn't know what to say for a moment. In this most chaotic and unruly place, there are actually such rules...

If that was the case, then his original plan would have gone to waste.

He had thought that with the protection of Qing Palace and the large number of Xingyuan creatures available for killing, his strength would surely continue to increase at an extremely terrifying speed.

But now I can't even kill, how can I improve my strength? Just rely on hard training? That's too slow.
