Mo Li and the other two sat cross-legged on this desolate cosmic sea planet, the vast cosmic sea aura slowly surged into their bodies, continuously replacing the energy within them.
Around them, a pile of Cosmic Crystals was scattered, these Cosmic Crystals contained numerous impurities, clearly only the lowest grade Cosmic Crystals. However, even these low-grade Cosmic Crystals were rare and nourishing treasures for Mo Li and the others.
Buzz!
One by one, the Cosmic Crystals floated up, radiating brilliant light, and streams of cosmic sea energy dispersed into Mo Li’s body, strengthening their aura. It could be faintly seen that Mo Li, Chi Yan Demon Lord, and Lohou Demon Ancestor all emitted an astonishing half-step transcendent aura, this aura was incredibly solid. Especially the power radiating from Mo Li was already approaching that of a true transcendent.
Yet, no matter how they absorbed the energy from the Cosmic Crystals, they could not truly step into the transcendence realm, as if some unseen barrier was blocking them.
While Mo Li and the others continued their cultivation.
Whoosh!
A figure suddenly appeared in the distant void, gazing at this desolate planet.
“Are those three?”
Upon seeing Mo Li and the others, Yuanmo Ancestor's eyes widened.
He would not forget Mo Li and the others, as it was these three and that Qin Chen who infiltrated his Demon Realm in the Primal Universe, causing the uprising of the Dark Clan members in the Black Jade Continent.
He clearly remembered the scene when Mo Li and the others teamed up with Qin Chen to stop the boundary sealing array of his Demon Realm.
“Are they not extremely close to that Qin Chen? How could they appear here?”
Yuanmo Ancestor was startled, glancing around suspiciously, and upon seeing no trace of Qin Chen nearby, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He must have overthought it.
“Hmph, these three once targeted this ancestor. Back then, I was forced to flee to the Underworld, and they had a part in it, just right…” Yuanmo Ancestor’s pupils suddenly emitted a cold light, “I am now wounded, needing to absorb a large amount of origin as nourishment. These three are from the Primal Universe, their origin has no conflict with me, and if I remember correctly, that kid should still possess my Demon Tribe origin within him.”
A cold glint flashed in Yuanmo Ancestor's eyes, “As long as I can devour the origin of these three, my cultivation must recover significantly. Moreover, now that my physical body has collapsed, only a trace of my origin divine soul remains. Rebuilding my physical body requires a lot of energy. If I can seize one of their bodies, I would have more time to reconstruct my body without worrying about my divine soul dissipating.”
Thinking of this, Yuanmo Ancestor's heart started to race with excitement.
“With my current condition, I need to be cautious; I must not capsize in the gutter!”
Yuanmo Ancestor’s divine soul transformed into an invisible wave, cautiously approaching Mo Li and the others.
Below.
Inside the desolate planet.
Bang!
Countless Cosmic Crystals exploded, their energy consumed completely, and Mo Li and the others opened their eyes.
“Li’er, how are you?”
Chi Yan Demon Lord quickly arrived beside Mo Li, linking arms with him, her face full of concern.
“Just a bit more.” Mo Li revealed a bitter expression, “Another thousand Cosmic Crystals consumed. Earning these Cosmic Crystals is too difficult. We have worked hard for so long in this Anbei Alliance and only obtained this thousand low-grade Cosmic Crystals. It’s hard to tell how long it will take to accumulate this many again.”
Beside them, Lohou Demon Ancestor also shook his head and sighed.
After Qin Chen left the Primal Universe, the three of them did not sit idle. Knowing that it was hard to break through the transcendence realm in the Primal Universe, they exerted great effort to leave the Primal Universe and arrived at this cosmic sea. However, upon arriving, they found that survival in the cosmic sea was not easy, as many forces coexisted. Even though their cultivation was not weak, each being a pinnacle half-step transcendent expert, without a backing, it was extremely difficult for them to survive in this cosmic sea.
