Chapter 1377: Chapter 636: Another Fate Revelation, Beast Tide Sweeping Across the Ice Crystal Mountain Range (Part 2)
...
At this moment, deep within the Ice Crystal Mountain Range.
The nine-headed Frost Prison Bone Armor Beasts inside were gradually awakening, their auras reaching their zenith.
"Originally, I thought with this seclusion, we could ascend to the Mahayana stage, but alas, we are still one step short."
One Frost Prison Bone Armor Beast said mournfully.
It had been confident, as it was merely one step away from reaching the Mahayana stage.
But even with the aid of Immortal Beast remains and abundant resources, comprehending the Laws was still exceedingly difficult for them.
Because they were, after all, Exotic Beasts with Immortal Beast bloodlines, not true Immortal Beasts.
In terms of innate potential, they naturally couldn’t compare to those Immortal Beasts from the Immortal Realm.
For them, ascending to the Mahayana stage is a significant bottleneck that has trapped them for countless years.
However, once they break through, it would open a vast horizon, and their lifespan would greatly increase.
This is also their deepest ambition.
To achieve this goal, they couldn’t care less about dealing with other Exotic Beast matters and left it to their subordinates to handle.
"That’s inevitable; ascending from Integration to Mahayana is incredibly difficult, a barrier that has claimed countless lives, unable to ascend is quite normal."
"That’s true, but I believe we are only one step away from Mahayana. As long as we enter seclusion once more, we are bound to succeed and gain the recognition of the Law Origin."
"I have a feeling that we are just a fraction away from fully understanding the Heaven and Earth Laws, and for us, ascending to Mahayana is not that challenging."
Many of the Combined Exotic Beasts said with confidence.
It’s not that they were boasting, but stating facts.
Their innate potential is quite decent.
Moreover, with the remains of Immortal Beasts and through consuming Immortal Beast flesh, it was as if they received profound insights from the Laws.
They could comprehend the Law Dao Rhyme at any moment.
Although doing so would subject them to the Laws within the Immortal Beast, making it hard to comprehend other Laws.
But what does that matter?
In the entire Ice Prison, even ascending to Mahayana is extremely difficult.
Even if it affects their ability to ascend to a higher Realm, if they can’t even break through to Mahayana, then there’s no need to consider the subsequent issues.
So even if there are some minor effects, it does not matter much.
"However, this barrier is perilous. If we fail to break through, we may perish, so before we enter seclusion, we should clear the surrounding human cultivators in the Ice Crystal Mountain Range."
"Indeed, the nearby human cultivators have been rampant lately, killing countless of our kin, and their numbers have increased drastically compared to before. If this continues, it will threaten the survival of our Exotic Beasts. Solving this issue before our breakthrough can prevent these human cultivators from disturbing us."
"Yes, our seclusion this time was exceedingly long, and we’re starving. It’s perfect timing to devour those human cultivators, which will surely benefit us greatly."
The numerous Frost Prison Bone Armor Beasts were filled with murderous intent, emanating terrifying killing intent.
The reason they’ve let so many human cultivators live wasn’t due to kindness, but intentionally.
For them, these human cultivators were high-grade ingredients.
The higher the cultivation of the human cultivators, the more valuable they were, akin to Ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Medicines.
They let these humans grow wildly.
When they reach a certain level, they would harvest them, making the area around the Ice Crystal Mountain Range akin to their Medicinal Garden, with humans as merely the Spirit Medicines for Exotic Beasts.
Moreover, after cultivating for so long and humans reproducing so much, it’s time to start the harvest.
This is the extremely brutal truth within the Ice Prison.
In this world, there are only two kinds of beings: eat, and be eaten, no others.
"But the aptitude of those human cultivators is indeed remarkable."
"In my perception, there are already eighteen human Integrations nearby."
"Their strength is not to be underestimated."
One of the Frost Prison Bone Armor Beasts said indifferently.
Its divine sense spread in all directions, enveloping the Ice Crystal Mountain Range, sensing the strength of many human cultivators at once.
Though they were extremely arrogant, they were not conceited.
When facing enemies, they would still investigate the enemy’s strength in advance.
They would never give an opportunity for failure.
"Eighteen human Integrations? Humans are impressive, how short a time has passed."
"Indeed, it’s said they originated from the outside world and established a massive human civilization. This truly reveals their boundless potential, and if not curbed, they will surely threaten our existence."
"Unfortunately, we can’t find a way to the outside; otherwise, we could go to the real human world, devour a large number of human cultivators, and our cultivation progress would be even quicker."
"Haha, nothing to worry about. Humans indeed possess boundless potential, but our potential is even stronger, and our cultivation progresses more swiftly, naturally able to suppress the Human Race firmly."
"That’s right, as long as we eliminate this group of human Integrations, humans in this area will pose no threat, destined to merely become our food."
