Immortal Starry Sky-Chapter 617 - 592 Transformation (Part 2)

The distance of four hundred meters, at Wang Xu's current speed, can be crossed in less than two seconds.

Gathering all his strength, the ice spike in Wang Xu's hand shone with a cold gleam, mercilessly stabbing towards the mouse-like beast!

The mouse-like beast's eyes flickered.

It possesses a certain level of intelligence, able to assess its opponent's strength.

Upon noticing Wang Xu's movement, it didn't choose to flee in fright but raised the steel spikes on its back, kicking its legs, charging forward!

It wanted to kill Wang Xu!

Clang.

The sound of metal clashing resounded as the two figures brushed past each other.

"Such hard steel spikes, even my full force attack couldn't harm them!" Wang Xu steadied himself, his expression grave.

His strength is now close to the 'Ganges Celestial Spirit', just needing more cultivation to break through to two fingers, possessing the power comparable to the Celestial God Realm.

Yet he didn't expect to encounter a random fierce beast with such strength, matching him evenly!

"Come on, let me feel the might of the fierce beasts of the Ganges Realm!"

Battle intent surged in Wang Xu's eyes.

The Ice Crystal Foot cracked the ground, and Wang Xu attacked once more.

The mouse-like beast clearly wasn't planning to let Wang Xu go either, determined to fight to the end, its small figure leapt to attack again.

Clang clang clang...

The two figures wildly intertwined in the primeval forest, with the surrounding trees either pierced through or sliced apart, leaving smooth, neat cuts.

"Its steel spikes are impressive, but its body has always been hidden beneath them. If I'm not mistaken, its weak point is surely under those spikes!" Wang Xu pondered while fighting.

Steel spikes scratched Wang Xu's ice crystal body, but after absorbing the invisible power, the damaged areas could heal rapidly.

Moreover, no matter how severe the damage to this ice crystal body, Wang Xu couldn't feel any pain.

Understanding his own advantages and discerning the opponent's weaknesses, Wang Xu's gaze flashed, and he surged forward!

Thud.

This time, Wang Xu didn't use the ice spike to counter the mouse-like beast's steel spikes, but allowed them to pierce through his ice crystal body.

"Hmph! Let's see where you run now!"

Feeling no pain at all, Wang Xu simultaneously attacked with both ice spikes, violently stabbing at the soft flesh uncovered by the steel spikes!

"Squeak——"

Instantly, blood splattered everywhere, and the mouse-like beast let out a painful howl. The ice spikes in Wang Xu's hands had completely pierced through its body, and in no time, the beast ceased its wailing and died completely.

The steel spikes reverted to flesh spikes, and Wang Xu had successfully hunted his first fierce beast.

"Got it."

Wang Xu's ice-spiked hand rummaged through the mouse-like beast's corpse, and soon, a grayish stone-like core was presented before him.

Immediately, Wang Xu took a big gulp and swallowed the core without hesitation.

This is the Ganges Realm.

The structure of life here is different from Chaos. Every living being in the Ganges has its own core, and within the core lies all the strength of the Ganges creature, which can be transformed into one's own by devouring it.

Not only fierce beasts have cores, but Wang Xu has one inside him too.

The avian beast bit through that Ganges creature's ice crystal body because it wanted to devour the core inside him.

A core is an incredibly vital existence, just like the Core of Chaos in the Chaotic Cosmos, as long as the core remains, Wang Xu can fully recover even if his body is severely damaged.

Conversely, if the core is destroyed, no matter how powerful Wang Xu is, he would be on the brink of death with no hope of recovery.

"Pure power!"

With just one core swallowed, all the power of the mouse-like beast was instantly transformed into Wang Xu's own.

Crack crack crack...

Suddenly, Wang Xu noticed changes in his ice crystal body, not only gradually enlarging like inflating a balloon, but even his power was soaring.

Looking at the ice spike in his hand, it had undergone significant changes, resembling melting snow, beginning to bifurcate and transform into two ice spikes.

These two ice spikes were not the same as before, now possessing a slight flexibility, able to bend slightly.

After a moment, Wang Xu's body expanded from the original two meters to nearly four meters, appearing even mightier and grander.

"Power comparable to the Celestial God Realm!"

With a casual swing of his hand, Wang Xu easily sliced a hard rock in half.

The rocks of the Ganges Realm are not as fragile as those in Chaos. Previously, Wang Xu with one finger could merely make a pit in the rock, but now he could slice it in half, showing just how much his power had increased.

"Only by devouring a single core did I transform into 'Ganges Celestial Spirit'. If I continue to devour enough cores, wouldn't I quickly reach 'Ganges True Spirit' and 'Ganges Ancient Spirit'?"

Though he thought this way, Wang Xu knew the disparity well.

Not to mention, the avian beast he encountered earlier had devoured a core but underwent no change, indicating that the path of transformation is still very long; Wang Xu must take it step by step.

...

With four ice spikes and a huge four-meter body, Wang Xu became even more conspicuous while moving in the primeval forest, naturally attracting the covetous gazes of many fierce beasts.

Here, every creature has an instinct for battle, they need to kill the creatures they encounter, devour their cores, and make themselves stronger.

Thus, the fierce beasts that saw Wang Xu certainly wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.

But Wang Xu wouldn't be like them and act recklessly. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

When encountering a Fierce Beast stronger than Wang Xu, he would not hesitate in the slightest. He would turn and flee. With his current speed of a thousand meters per second, aside from the initial bird-like Fierce Beast, no other Fierce Beast could keep up with him.

But when he encountered a Fierce Beast weaker than him, it was Wang Xu's turn to hunt them down.

In each kill, in every bout of wits and courage with the Fierce Beasts, Wang Xu transformed daily between the identities of hunter and prey.

Ten years passed quietly.

"Die for me!"

With a fierce gaze, Wang Xu thrust two Ice Spikes straight into the abdomen of a wolf-shaped Fierce Beast with eight legs.

The two Ice Spikes slightly bent, turning into hooks, viciously dragging out all the flesh of the wolf-shaped Fierce Beast, along with a light yellow core.

Deprived of its core, the wolf-shaped Fierce Beast's strength drained instantly, collapsing on the ground howling, and Wang Xu struck again, killing it.

Swallowing the core in one gulp, Wang Xu felt changes occurring within his body once more.

"It's been ten years of battles, I've killed over a thousand Fierce Beasts, can I finally undergo transformation again?"

An excited expression rose in Wang Xu's heart.

Since his first transformation, Wang Xu had devoured over a thousand cores, but hadn't reached a second transformation.

However, these cores provided him with pure Power, causing his strength to surge, enabling him to handle increasingly stronger Fierce Beasts.

Finally, today Wang Xu's wish was fulfilled, after consuming the core of the wolf-shaped Fierce Beast, the second transformation began!

His Ice Crystal body swelled, the originally four-meter tall Wang Xu surged directly to ten meters, resembling a small giant in the primeval jungle.

The two Ice Spikes in his hands continued melting and branching, turning into three.

With greater flexibility and harder than ever.

Of course, what Wang Xu anticipated most was undoubtedly the surge in Power.

"The Power of the Saint Venerable Realm!"

Wang Xu's Flame Eye flickered continually, in these ten years he underwent thousands of battles, treading on the edge of life and death countless times, nearly perishing at the hands of Fierce Beasts.

But the outcome was clear, he did not die, the dead were those Fierce Beasts!

The reason he underwent all this was to become stronger, now, he finally achieved it.

The transformation process didn't last long, once Wang Xu started running again, his speed had already reached several thousand meters per second, his figure entirely transformed into a phantom weaving through the jungle.

"Haha..."

Wang Xu relished the thrill from the sudden surge in strength.

Suddenly.

Screech!

A familiar cry rang out, Wang Xu's figure halted, his eyes gazed distantly.

It was that bird-like Fierce Beast!

Ten years ago, Wang Xu was forced by the might of that bird-like Fierce Beast to cower in the grass, not daring to move, fearing being discovered by the bird-like Fierce Beast and becoming its prey.

Now it's different.

Wang Xu had completed his third transformation, ten years of struggle filled him with confidence to face that bird-like Fierce Beast in a frontal battle!

"To see you again ten years later, and to meet again, it's a kind of destiny. Let us engage in a duel to the death!" Wang Xu's eyes ignited with intense battle intent.

Ten years of life and death battles had completely integrated him into this brutal Ganges Realm.

He understood that to survive in this world, one must compete!

Competition between Ganges living beings and Fierce Beasts exists, competition among Fierce Beasts, and competition among Ganges living beings… He had comprehended it all.

This is a world where survival depends solely on competition, to live one must be stronger than others!

Immediately, Wang Xu charged without hesitation towards the direction from which the screech came.

...

"Hu Yu big brother!"

"You're already gravely injured, you can't continue to battle with the 'Black Feathered Iron Steel Eagle', if you keep this up, you'll exhaust your Constant Spirit and die!"

"Hu Yu big brother, forget about us, flee quickly!"

In the jungle, a burly man with a purple Talisman Seal on his forehead was battling with the bird-like Fierce Beast.

The two were purely using Power to contend, but the bird-like Fierce Beast clearly held the advantage, able to soar into the sky repeatedly making severe strikes on the burly man, each hit rendering the man's face paler.

Behind the burly man, two slightly frail men lay on the ground, blood oozing from their mouths and faces pale, while a woman in a pink dress stood anxiously nearby, screaming in distress.

Boom!

The Black Feathered Iron Steel Eagle soared again, seized an opening, and its six claws lashed at the burly man, leaving over ten bloody gashes on his body, simultaneously forcing him to stumble backward uncontrollably.

The wounds on the burly man healed swiftly, as if they never existed, yet his face grew paler.

"Xu Milu, take You Long and He Ya and leave quickly, I'll stay to hold it off." The burly man said solemnly, with no hint of fear in his eyes.

"Hu Yu big brother!"

Xu Milu cried out mournfully, knowing that Hu Yu intended to single-handedly block the Black Feathered Iron Steel Eagle to allow them to escape.

But leaving Hu Yu behind would certainly mean his death!

Meanwhile, in the distance, Wang Xu who was sprinting arrived at the scene, and when he noticed these human-like existences, his pupils suddenly contracted!
