Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm

Chapter 619: Chapter 618: Star Beast (What did I lose for the Alliance? Added more)

The Star Beast race is a species unique to the Immortal Realm.

Simply put, these divine beasts have such huge appetites that ordinary worlds cannot sustain them.

Generally, a single Star Beast would consume an entire universe from birth to its attainment of immortality.

“This size indicates that it’s a Star Beast of the Transcendence Tribulation Stage.” Luo Zhi deduced.

“Quite the discerning eye.” Rumbling sounds resonated from the stomach wall, vague like thunder.

A small tumor-like protrusion formed on the stomach wall. It morphed into a humanoid shape and detached itself.

Luo Zhi immediately recognized it as a Star Beast’s avatar.

“You came from the Immortal Realm?” Luo Zhi asked cautiously.

“Unexpectedly observant for a mortal from the Lower Realm.” The Star Beast’s avatar seemed slightly surprised, but it didn’t take Luo Zhi seriously.

The elderly man was reminded of his past experience when he first reached the Body Integration Realm.

After becoming the first person ever to reach the Body Integration Realm, he was full of ambition. He wanted to explore the universe to see if other forms of life existed there.

What he didn’t expect was that after soaring into outer space, instead of the boundless universe, he was faced with a cruel reality.

The place he had struggled his entire life was nothing more than somebody’s stomach.

At that moment, the Star Beast’s avatar emerged, opening its massive mouth, ready to devour the elderly man.

To the Star Beast, those in the Body Integration Realm are incredibly delicious.

To save his life, the old man quickly pleaded, promising he could offer the Star Beast even tastier dishes. Given a chance to prove himself, the Star Beast waited to see what tricks he could pull.

The elderly man took control of all the Divinity Transformation Stage beasts, using his Great Divine Power to scramble their minds and incite their madness against the human race.

Then he approached the human race secretly, advising them that to survive the beast onslaught, one must cultivate their physique to become Body Refiners.

Body Refiners, with their vigorous life force, are the Star Beast’s favourite food.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Thus began the millennia-long war between humans and beasts. The Star Beast benefitted from their feud, and the slain Divinity Transformation Stage humans and beasts were extraordinarily delicious to it.

Throughout the process, the older man slowly learned of the Star Beast’s origins.

The Star Beasts hail from the Immortal Realm. According to their race, they must consume many humans from their tribulation phase to their ascension. Most inhabitants of the Immortal Realm serve the Immortals. Therefore, acquiring humans to eat requires purchasing them with a significant number of Immortal Stones.

Those Immortal Stones are enough to allow a Star Beast to become an Immortal.

To save on Immortal Stones, the Star Beasts would send their kind to the Lower Realm to feast at will.

The Star Beasts swallowed countless lives from numerous stars, gradually growing in size. But one day, their path to ascending to immortality was suddenly severed, leaving them stranded in the Lower Realm.

Out of boredom, the Star Beast swallowed several stars, letting their inhabitants live out their lives within its stomach.

“I refrained from devouring these humans because I feared that once I consume them all, there would be nothing left to eat. But you’ve given me hope.”

The Star Beast drooled as it gazed at Luo Zhi, “Where is your world? I want to pay a visit and have a feast.”

“Daydreaming!”

Luo Zhi scattered some seeds on the stomach wall. They started to sprout roots, but stomach juices promptly digested them.

“Overestimating your abilities.” The Star Beast punched Luo Zhi’s abdomen.

Although its avatar was less powerful than its original body, it was more than enough to deal with someone in the Body Integration Realm.

“Something feels off!” The Star Beast felt as if its fist had struck a tree. It tried to pull back, but it was too late.

Tree-like patterns appeared on Luo Zhi’s face. He abruptly hugged the Star Beast’s avatar, rapidly morphing into a tree, merging the Star Beast’s avatar with the tree.

“The Wooden Man Tree Technique! It’s the Sect Master’s wooden avatar from start to finish!” The assistant, Fang, recognized Luo Zhi’s move.

The Wooden Man Tree Technique allowed the user to send a wooden avatar in place of their own body, possessing 80% of the user’s power. Its difficulty was extreme.

“Qing Luo Sword Technique.”

The real Luo Zhi appeared, wielding a powerful sword strike. The Star Beast, trapped within the tree, could only watch in horror as a green sword shadow split it in two.

The Qing Luo Sword Technique was developed by the 52nd Human Emperor, Qing Luo. It is an all-encompassing move whose power could shake the heavens when fully charged.

Roar—

The Star Beast roared in fury, its stomach convulsing as it tried to digest these little insignificant creatures to take its revenge!

“What can we do now?” The frantic assistant, Fang, said, “That’s right, it’s time to call the Transcendent masters and the Human Emperor, Jiang Li.”

Fang ripped open two summoning talismans, but nothing happened.

“How is this possible!” Fang felt helpless for a moment.

Luo Zhi then shouted from above, “You two, it’s high time to join the battle if you’re done messing around!”

Fang didn’t understand what the Sect Master meant.

Bai Hongtu passed by Fang’s side, patting him on the shoulder, “Stop watching. Your Sect Master was referring to us.”

Jiang Li also patted Fang’s shoulder, “Good job.”

The two men soared into the air, standing before Luo Zhi, laughing, “Oh, come on, with such a large incident occurring, how could we just stand aside?”

“If we hadn’t acted, the stomach contractions would mean an earthquake or landslide to the beings in here. The human race and beasts would not survive.”

Only then Luo Zhi realized that the stomach wall below was static, contrasting starkly with the contracting and throbbing walls around them.

Clearly, the two men had quietly intervened without him noticing.

“Star Beast, for sparing Immortal Stones, you ate humans. You deserve to die.” Jiang Li had heard about the Star Beasts from Changcun Xianweng earlier. The Star Beasts ate massive amounts of beings daily. They were undoubtedly evil.

“Transcendence Tribulation Stage? Let’s see who’s bigger!” Bai Hongtu cast ‘Law of Heaven and Earth’, expanding to break out of the Star Beast’s body and causing the beast to roar in pain repeatedly.

“Even though my magic projection isn’t as big as Li Er’s, it’s more than enough to deal with you!”

Among the wreckage of the stars, two colossal figures confronted each other—one beast, one man. Their clash caused shockwaves that grinded the fragments of stars into dust.

Bai Hongtu drew a formation on his arm, and with a punch, his power surged multiple-fold.

This was a technique learned from the Observer’s World. Unlike the original technique from the Observer’s world, it was more sophisticated and didn’t require sacrificing an arm to use.

Bai Hongtu wielded his fists like hammers, pummeling the Star Beast until it was bleeding from all kinds of injuries and wailing in pain.

“You’re nothing but bragging because of your size. If you met someone of equal size, your advantage would be non-existent!”

“Establishment of the Three Pure Lands!”

Bai Hongtu split into three clones, each possessing equal power to his original body.

Establishment of the Three Pure Lands was one of the most challenging techniques to master, which was many times harder than Luo Zhi’s Wooden Man Tree Technique.

The four Bai Hongtus attacked simultaneously in a grandiose display of power that caused space to tremble.

Bai Hongtu drew sword talismans, slicing off the Star Beast’s limbs. While a regular Transcendent being could regenerate from a drop of blood, the Star Beast was too large to do so. It could only subject itself to Bai Hongtu’s slaughter.

Jiang Li also used the Law of Heaven and Earth, stepping on the Beast’s head, crushing it to pieces.

Their moves were like those of the gigantic heroes from ancient myths who broke apart the chaos, bringing clarity and light to the world.

People raised their heads, glimpsing the true universe.
