This was a truly peculiar world, with a vast expanse of rolling mountains stretching into the distance.
The mountains were barren, devoid of any flora or fauna, which reminded him of the scenes from the Underworld of Source Star. Yet, amidst this desolate landscape, he felt an oddly rich vitality, a life force even more vigorous than that found in great forests, almost palpable in its flow.
What was even more terrifying was that there was no air here!
If it weren't for his body having already evolved into a transcendent form that required no breathing, mere survival in this place would have been a significant challenge.
Earlier, when he felt an overwhelming hunger from the depletion of energy within him, Xiar instinctively took a bite of one of these strange stones, instantly validating his feelings.
Indeed, these stones were crunchy, reminiscent of biting into fried chicken, though their taste was somewhat peculiar.
What astonished him the most was that they contained vast and pure Life Energy, surpassing even the power of Disaster Beasts. It felt akin to the legendary elixir of immortality; with just one bite, he could feel his injuries rapidly healing.
Not only that, but he could also sense a special energy within them that caused the concentrated totem form of his soul to rapidly merge with Evolution, initiating an uncontrollable Evolution mode. He had no idea what he would evolve into in the future.
"Infinite Devour!"
In the next moment, a fearsome black dragon's maw appeared and began voraciously devouring chunks of stone, initiating the Frenzy consumption process.
The immense Devouring Ability granted to him by the dragon allowed him to infinitely evolve through the consumption of various life forms. The limits of this terrifying ability were currently beyond his comprehension.
Here, this ability was fully unleashed as he consumed rock after rock, digging deep into the earth in no time.
Xiar was shocked to discover that each mouthful of pure Life Energy he consumed far exceeded that of a single Disaster Beast.
Before long, he felt as if he might burst from overeating and had to pause briefly to digest the energy he had ingested.
In reality, this energy was of a very high grade; it seemed to transcend even his Immortal Golden Flame in essence. Xiar had no idea why he could consume such energy.
Then, he utilized his solidified mental power and began to fly upward. To his astonishment, he discovered something almost unbelievable.
The massive mountain beneath him resembled a colossal dragon lying down—a Mountain Dragon covering half a planet and stretching over ten thousand kilometers!
The entire Mountain Dragon appeared lifelike, extending for thousands of miles. With his extraordinarily enhanced abilities, he could clearly see its outline—its legs and long tail, even its enormous and fearsome head were distinctly recognizable.
He found himself at the head of the Mountain Dragon, a mountain towering tens of thousands of meters high!
Not far away, the two stone pillars were like the dragon's horns, reaching up to the heavens.
This colossal dragon did not resemble the black dragons of Western lore; instead, it was akin to the Divine Dragon from the myths of the Flower Planting Family, possessing a slender body and a tail reminiscent of a serpent.
On its massive form, enormous golden scales, each several thousand meters in diameter, had developed. These scales were arranged in an orderly fashion across the dragon's terrifyingly large body, emanating a faint golden glow.
"Could it be that this is the Ancestral Dragon that fell from the Stellar Dragon Clan?" Xiar murmured.
It seemed that only this explanation could account for such a gigantic body, which bore a striking resemblance to the Divine Dragons that transformed from dragon veins in mythology.
In those ancient tales, certain majestic mountains and rivers possessed astonishing fortunes. The emperors who rose to dominance in Central Plains were all blessed with the luck of dragon veins, allowing them to succeed in all endeavors.
Now, for the first time, Xiar was witnessing such a realistic Divine Dragon mountain range, making him feel as if mythology had come to life.
In the myths of the Flowering Family, all descendants of Huaxia regarded themselves as heirs of the dragon. This "dragon" was indeed identical in shape to the Divine Dragon below and not like those large lizards from Western tales!
Was there some connection between them?
Xiar could not fully comprehend these reasons, but he vaguely sensed why he could absorb the energy of this Mountain Dragon.
It seemed that this was linked to his past life's soul origin, establishing some meaningful connection with it, though this connection was too weak for him to perceive now.
This realization filled Xiar with excitement because it meant he could potentially find his way home, back to the Flowering Family!
Next, Xiar carefully observed the colossal creature that spanned half a planet, attempting to study it further.
Unfortunately, the Mountain Dragon was so immense that even his vision—equivalent to hundreds or thousands of times that of an ordinary person—could not fully grasp its details.
The Mountain Dragon's body had curved into a semicircle along with the planet; he would need to fly into space to see it entirely.
Given his current strength, flying into space was not an insurmountable task; it merely required some energy and effort.
Thus, for Xiar at this moment, the only value of this unprecedented Mountain Dragon lay in its ability to provide him with ample energy—enough for him to elevate his power level once again!
The other party was clearly undergoing some mysterious evolution, a connection that allowed him to devour the essence of life without hesitation.
This was undoubtedly great news for him, as he had just advanced to Soldier Level, possessing an incredibly terrifying endowment, yet he had always struggled to grow stronger quickly.
Well then, let the feast begin!
Next, Xiar completely transformed into a Devourer, recklessly consuming the life essence of the entire Mountain Dragon, rapidly converting it into energy to enhance himself. In an instant, his physical strength surged to match the explosive increase in his mental power, elevating him to the peak of Soldier Level, with attributes like physique and strength all nearing one hundred points!
He was currently positioned at the head of the Mountain Dragon, the area rich in Life Energy, making him feel as if he had fallen into a mountain composed entirely of Supreme Elixir, where he could simply feast to grow stronger!
Even more terrifying was that as his strength increased, his rate of consumption skyrocketed exponentially.
Moments later, a massive oval pit appeared beneath him, with a maximum diameter exceeding one thousand meters, gradually spreading outwards.
Beneath one of the Dragon Horns that resembled stone pillars, the ground began to hollow out and slowly tilt downwards...
Unbeknownst to how much time had passed, terrifyingly large dragons rushed in from afar, circling around this planet. Among them was none other than Hurst, the son of the Dragon King from the Stellar Dragon Clan!
