Lu Ye only felt a slight pain in his chest. Shockingly, several defensive spirit inscriptions had been shattered.
The next moment, a terrifying power came from his hand, making him lose his grip on the star beast's arm. It struggled free!
At the same time, the saber slashed down!
A strange squeak came from under the magma, and the fierce aura quickly disappeared.
Lu Ye steadied himself and hurriedly looked at his chest. He saw blood seeping out of his clothes. Clearly, he had been injured in the sneak attack just now. However, he could feel that it was only a flesh wound. The defensive spirit rune had blocked that fatal attack for him.
He looked at the Pan Mountain Saber again. There was a trace of blood on the blade.
With a cold harrumph, he plunged into the lava without any hesitation.
Let's see where you can run to this time!
He swore in his heart. No matter what, he had to get rid of all future troubles. Otherwise, how could he cultivate the special fire in peace if he was always on this guy's mind?
The two figures, one in front and one behind, went deep into the giant red star. Neither of them was slow.
The Solar Star Beast was not panicking. Lu Ye had chased it once before, but it had shaken him off in a few moves.
It thought it would be the same this time.
However, it did not expect that no matter how hard it tried this time, the danger behind it was like a maggot in its bones. It could not shake it off.
This chase lasted for several days. Both man and beast had long traveled deep into the Giant Red Star. The surrounding temperature was frighteningly high, far higher than the surface of the Giant Red Star. Even a peak Sunshine expert would have melted in an instant at this temperature.
The star beast's ability to withstand the heat was due to its innate talent. This kind of special star beast was born to chase after heat. Even a constellation could survive in the giant red star, let alone a Sunshine star beast.
Its ability to withstand the terrifying heat was not something other races could compare to.
Lu Ye could withstand it because of the Talent Tree's protection.
Invisible roots covered his entire body, so he could not feel the heat at all.
At a certain moment, Lu Ye suddenly felt a sense of fullness. This was a feeling he had never felt before. He could not help but be startled. After careful inspection, he realized that the Talent Tree's fuel reserves had reached their limit.
He did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Ever since the Talent Tree had transformed three times, its fuel reserves had never reached the limit. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain this time. This special environment was too suitable for the increase of the Talent Tree's fuel reserves.
However, he was here to kill the Solar Star Beast to prevent future trouble.
For the time being, it was a pleasant surprise.
After several days of waiting, it should be about time.
At this moment, the aura of the fleeing Star Beast was clearly much weaker than before. This was not because it was being chased, but because the wound on its body was continuously worsening.
This kind of astral beast had a strong physique. Normal injuries were nothing to it. The interior of the giant red star was the best place for it to heal. However, the injuries caused by the Mountain Blade were different. With the power of brightness entangling, not only were the wounds unable to heal, they were constantly being torn apart. This greatly depleted the astral beast's energy and stamina.
Lu Ye was also relying on the guidance of Fang's power to chase after him. Otherwise, he would have lost track of him long ago.
Raising his hand, he pointed the Coiling Mountain Saber to the front and shook slightly.
An invisible wave rippled out, causing the fleeing Solar Star Beast to stagger. Its wound suddenly tore open, causing blood to spurt out. Rapid squeaking sounds came from its mouth.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Ye quickly rushed over. After a few leaps, he was not far from the astral beast.
The astral beast clearly sensed that something was wrong. Knowing that it had no hope of escaping, it immediately turned around and pounced at Lu Ye with a ferocious expression. It looked like it wanted to drag Lu Ye down with it even if it died.
Lu Ye's expression was calm. After fighting with the astral beast for so long, he had a clear understanding of it. It had a strong physique and great strength. Using the special environment of the giant red star, it moved very stealthily. However, it was no match for him in a direct confrontation.
If they were not here, he could use his Spirit to suppress it. This was because the biggest weakness of astral beasts was that their Spirit was not strong. Except for a few special ones, most astral beasts had this weakness.
However, the environment here was not good. The temperature was too high. If Lu Ye's Divine Will left his body, he would have to endure the pain of being burned.
The blade light fell, and a huge lotus flower suddenly bloomed. Countless petals danced in the air, cutting in all directions.
The squeaking sounds became even more hurried. Just the use of the lotus sun had caused the astral beast to suffer even more injuries. It was dizzy for a moment.
Lu Ye struck again, and the faint roar of a beast could be heard. A ferocious beast head suddenly appeared, baring its fangs and biting at the astral beast.
The surrounding magma instantly retreated!
After advancing to Solar Star Beast, Lu Ye's every move contained terrifying power. Compared to Yue Yao, his strength was on a completely different level.
The Solar Star Beast was sent flying. A large part of its chest had caved in, and it looked extremely miserable.
Lu Ye leaped forward, the Pan Shan Saber stabbing forward. He was determined to kill it!
Faced with this attack, the heavily injured astral beast no longer had the strength to resist.
However, Lu Ye's saber did not manage to pierce through. The saber stopped an inch away from the astral beast's head.
Under the illumination of the surrounding fiery red light, Lu Ye could clearly see the fear in the astral beast's eyes. Its body was covered in blood, but it opened its mouth and spat out a red ray of light as thick as a finger.
Lu Ye sensed it and was surprised to find that this red ray of light contained extremely pure fire-type energy. It looked like the Flaming Sun Essence he had purchased on the Ten Thousand Creations Sea, but its quality was clearly much higher and purer.
Fire-type resources like Flaming Sun Essence were refined by cultivators in an environment like the Giant Red Star through special methods and methods. They would then sell it in exchange for the cultivation resources they needed.
Lu Ye did not expect the astral beast in front of him to have such an ability. Moreover, it seemed to be an innate ability.
Taking a closer look, the astral beast's eyes were not only filled with fear, but also begging for mercy.
It was clearly afraid. It knew that it was no match for Lu Ye, but it could not shake him off, so it used this method to beg for mercy.
As for why it spat out the Flaming Sun Essence, it was not difficult to understand. Cultivators who came to the Giant Red Star would basically refine the Flaming Sun Essence through their own methods. They would either bring it back to sell or refine and absorb it themselves.
Only Lu Ye, whether it was storing fuel for his Talent Tree or nurturing strange flames in his Fire Gourd, did not require this process.
This astral beast must have seen other cultivators refine this thing, so it spat it out.
Looking at it this way, this astral beast had a certain level of intelligence. It knew when to give in and knew what to take out to tempt Lu Ye.
It had undoubtedly succeeded. If it had been a little slower, Lu Ye would have taken its crystal core.
Lu Ye raised his hand and sucked the Flaming Sun Essence over. He then took out his Fire Gourd and swallowed the Flaming Sun Essence with a shake of the gourd. The strange flames inside grew.
"Is there more?" Lu Ye's Divine Sense surged as he asked through voice transmission.
The astral beast did not respond. It clearly did not understand.
Lu Ye held the Fire Gourd and gestured a few times. Only then did the astral beast react. It opened its mouth with difficulty and spat out another Flaming Sun Essence.
Lu Ye's eyes lit up. There really is more!
He swallowed the Fire Gourd and looked at the other party.
The astral beast scratched its ears and cheeks anxiously. Lu Ye's face darkened. He gestured with the Mountain Pan Saber, clearly threatening it.
The astral beast's face was filled with fear. It opened its mouth reluctantly and spat out the Flaming Sun Essence for the third time.
But after this time, Lu Ye clearly found that the astral beast's spirit had become extremely sluggish. The quality of the Flaming Sun Essence it spat out was also inferior to the previous two times.
Could it be that this was its limit?
Lu Ye still wanted to confirm. After using the Fire Gourd to absorb the Flaming Sun Essence, he placed the Mountain Pan Saber on the astral beast's neck.
The astral beast's expression was one of despair …
Seeing this, Lu Ye could roughly confirm that this was indeed its limit.
If that was the case … this astral beast would be of great use.
It could refine something like the Flaming Sun Essence. It could undoubtedly increase the speed of the strange flames' growth. If he simply killed it, although the effects of a Sunshine grade crystal core were not bad, it was no different from killing the chicken to get the eggs. On the other hand, if he left it alive, it could be used for a long time.
However, the astral beast's intelligence was not very high. It was difficult to communicate with it. Moreover, he didn't know how effective it was at refining the Flaming Sun Essence. This needed to be verified.
Just as Lu Ye was thinking about how to communicate with it, the star beast suddenly thought of something and hurriedly urged Lu Ye to squeak. Then, it looked at the long saber on its neck in awe.
Lu Ye understood. He put away the saber and didn't forget to threaten it. "Don't think about escaping. If you dare to escape, you'll die!"
The astral beast had no idea what he was talking about. Its figure flashed and rushed in a certain direction. Its speed wasn't fast, mainly because it was too weak right now.
Lu Ye was really afraid that it would die just like that. He immediately activated the Mountain Pan Saber and dissolved most of the Fang power on its body.
The man and beast returned the way they came. After reducing the torment of the Fang power, the astral beast's spirit seemed to slowly improve. It sped away, letting out strange sounds from its mouth.
Lu Ye also didn't know what it was doing.
After a long time, another astral beast approached. Only then did Lu Ye realize that this astral beast was summoning its companions!
It was a Moon Astral Beast. It quickly met up with the Moon Astral Beast. When it saw Lu Ye, the Moon Astral Beast was clearly shocked. It bared its fangs at Lu Ye.
The Sun Astral Beast, however, smashed its fist into the Moon Astral Beast's head. The Moon Astral Beast was stunned, and it finally calmed down.
Then, the two astral beasts gathered together and used some unknown method to communicate. The Moon Astral Beast then opened its mouth and spat out a stream of Flaming Sun Essence.
Lu Ye's eyes lit up. He couldn't help but smile. "Good, good, good! Very good!"
He never thought that the Sun Astral Beast would be able to bring him such a pleasant surprise!
He had no intention of killing it. After all, in his opinion, the Sun Astral Beast was just a chicken that could lay eggs.
However, if it could summon its companions to provide it with Flaming Sun Essence, then it wouldn't just be a chicken. It would be a group of chickens …
