"Let's explore those stars," Austin said as he looked at the stars in front of him.
The heavenly bodies piqued his curiosity, making him want to explore the space sea.
The chaotic sky-devouring beast nodded at him.
It seemed to be big on adventures.
"Let's go,"
Austin said.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Both the young man and the beast made their way towards the stars.
There were too many of them in the space sea.
With the help of his spiritual sense, Austin found many to be deserted without any sign of life.
Others had creatures inhabiting them.
It appeared that this space sea held all kinds of races like the Sea of Chaos. They had more or less the
same population too.
"There is nothing special about most of the stars here," Austin murmured to himself as he checked the
stars using his spiritual sense.
He and the chaotic sky-devouring beast shifted through the stars.
In the blink of an eye, two years had passed since the duo set foot in this strange space sea.
According to the chaotic sky-devouring beast, each space sea followed its own time and space system.
Just because two years had passed here didn't mean the same time had elapsed outside.
Austin and the beast kept on with their adventure.
One day, an enormous star in the distance caught Austin's attention.
It released a widely spreading energy as it rotated.
This heavenly body intrigued both Austin and the chaotic sky-devouring beast.
All the stars they had seen so far had been of ordinary size. The one in front of them, however, was
much larger than previous ones, making it stand out among the stars.
Moreover, it was releasing a terrifying amount of energy.
"What a big star! And with such a powerful aura, there must be something special about it," Austin
remarked.
He glanced at the beast, and the two of them immediately flew towards that special star.
Up close, they could see it better.
As expected, the star was very special indeed.
The scorching red ocean covered one side. Its surging waves contained some mysterious law. Each
wave was equal to an all-out attack from a governing god, which took Austin and the beast by great
surprise.
The other side held an endless dark blue ocean. It gave off an unbearable cold, which carried terrifying
power.
"What an extraordinary star!"
Austin commented, surprised by what he was seeing.
A scarlet ocean covered half of its surface, giving off heat, while the rest of its surface was covered by
a dark blue ocean giving off a chilling cold.
One was hot, and the other was cold. At the junction, the cold and heat collided and formed a thick fog.
Through the mist, the top of a giant tree was visible. It held several scarlet fruits.
"This is good.
An amazing treasure!
The tree and the fruits are very precious,"
the chaotic sky-devouring beast said abruptly, looking excited.
Having spent so much time with the beast, Austin had gradually taught it how to speak.
Now, the chaotic sky-devouring beast had no trouble speaking to him freely.
"Wait.
You know of this tree? Is there something special about it?"
Austin asked in confusion.
"Look at the branches, leaves, and aura of fruits."
The beast had a thoughtful look on its face.
"From the memories I inherited, this tree should be the Immortal Tribulation Tree," the beast continued.
As a legendary beast, it held old memories of ancient times. Hence, it knew lots of precious natural
resources.
"The Immortal Tribulation Tree?"
It was the first time Austin had heard of it.
"Yes. It is a very rare and precious tree,"
the chaotic sky-devouring beast explained.
"I can tell by its appearance that it's rather precious,"
Austin responded as he studied the tall tree.
The tree was about one hundred thousand feet tall, and its top part sticking out of the thick mist.
"This Immortal Tribulation Tree is priceless.
We must get our hands on it!"
The chaotic sky-devouring beast's eyes lit enthusiastically.
Austin had determined by now that this was one greedy beast.
Whenever it came across anything valuable, all it could think of was acquiring it.
But so was Austin.
Birds of a feather flocked together, after all. That was why he and the beast got along so well.
"You're right. We can't miss out on this chance!"
Austin's eyes were just as bright.
"Let's take a look,"
Austin went on.
Without hesitation, the duo flew carefully towards the thick fog.
Soon, Austin and the chaotic sky-devouring beast were landing on the star, and the mist was in front of
them.
"Be careful. It seems that this thick fog can restrict the spiritual sense,"
Austin cautioned the beast.
Even though the duo had an incredible spiritual sense, they could only perceive an area of more than a
hundred thousand miles within the fog.
Suddenly, blood-colored waves rolled up, producing more heat.
On the other side, blue waves were giving off a gust of icy wind.
A long and narrow strip of land stood where the two oceans met.
It was where Austin and the beast now stood.
"Looks like some creatures have their eyes set on the Immortal Tribulation Tree!"
A voice rang out.
It was earsplitting.
Caught off guard, Austin and the chaotic sky-devouring beast looked at the source of the voice.
The thick fog in the distance immediately began to dissipate due to the blue airflow.
When the mist dispersed, Austin and the chaotic sky-devouring beast saw a flood dragon slowly climb
onto the shore. It had dark blue scales with its dark golden eyes fixed on them.
The monster gave off more chilling cold, as if it was made from ice.
Austin surmised that even a governing god's spiritual soul would freeze and break into pieces if it
approached that flood dragon. He would die on the spot.
"Two figures have arrived here. Good timing, I was starting to get bored. Now we can finally have some
fun."
Loud laughter rang from the direction opposite the flood dragon.
Austin and the chaotic sky-devouring beast stood still. They turned to the direction of the new voice.
On the other side, the same blazing flames dispersed the thick fog, and a monster with scarlet hooves
went ashore in the distance. It made its way towards Austin and the chaotic sky-devouring beast.
The two monsters looked at Austin and the beast with great interest.
"These two monsters are terrifyingly strong.
Be careful,"
Austin said to the beast through his spiritual sense.
"I am familiar with them thanks to the memories I have inherited,"
the chaotic sky-devouring beast said.
"Oh?
How much do you know about them? What are they? Where did they come from?"
Austin eagerly threw several questions at the beast.
"They are primitive gifted beasts. Their blood is more valuable than ours,"
the chaotic sky-devouring beast replied after giving it some thought.
"Is that so? How incredible!
Their blood is even more precious than yours,"
Austin exclaimed in shock.
