Chapter 387 - A Budding Economy
As a spectacular battle took place in the underground cavern of a volcanic mountain, elsewhere in the Celestial Realm, wild adventures of numerous Exploration Teams continued!
Tens of thousands of Void Ranked beings continued to pour into the Celestial Realm, with a few hundred at the Soul Realm making their entrance as well as more and more hunting teams to take down Behemoths and explore the wonders of the Celestial Realm were formed.
The Celestials were the biggest winners as always and as planned, watching as many beings perished while others learned from their mistakes, and ultimately create a smooth process where they received the resources of numerous materials from the bodies of Behemoths, and even further increased their exploration of the Celestial Realm. The benefits were slowly opening up as a bright future showed itself in front of their eyes.
The more powerful forces of some Prime Worlds guessed the intentions of the Celestials, but the rewards were simply too enticing so they went along with it!
This was because they found out the immense uses of the bodies of Behemoths that were drenched in universal laws, finding that the consumption of these beasts would rapidly propel their own comprehension and increase their power, not to mention that swallowing their Origin Cores where most of the universal laws were condensed gave one years worth of comprehension in that Law!
This made for a very compet.i.tive atmosphere as many beings formed powerful teams to gain access to even more resources. On this particular day, the newly formed Order of Blood was conducting its first hunt, the Royal Vampyre Elena at the lead as they faced a powerful Ice Behemoth.
This particular Behemoth had huge tusks that made it seem like an oversized Mammoth, its large amount of fur acting like a thick coat in the freezing and snowy region of the Celestial Realm. Numerous spears of ice continued to form and shoot out from its body every second as it faced its enemies!
The curvaceous body of the Royal Vampyre twisted as her hands flew forward, initiating a sea of blood that formed into powerful lances that smashed towards the Behemoth and kept its attention. This powerful Royal Vampyre was actually acting as the tank while the Emperor Penguin and others adorned with weapons pulsating with the fire element released their attacks towards the Behemoth.
ROAR!
The Behemoth roared out as Elena sent a telepathic message to the others.
"Ready?!"
Focused looks appeared on the other Vampyres in the surroundings, the Emperor Penguin stretching its flippers as it replied and nodded, the Calamities of the Sea and other Harbingers that were not staying and training in the Time s.p.a.ce of the Spiritual Land ascertaining as they carried out a plan they discussed beforehand.
The body of the Emperor Penguin teleported as it disappeared and reappeared far into the skies, feeling the strong gravitational pressure begin to pull its body downwards already as it did not have the capabilities to fly in this Celestial Realm like many others. Its goal was something else though, as its beady eyes locked in on the Ice Behemoth still letting out wild attacks towards its teammates, a s.h.i.+mmering silver light appearing over it's body as it cast a particular skill it unlocked from its skill tree!
[Spatial Displacement]!
RUMBLE!
A s.h.i.+ning silver light flashed in the skies as the body of the Emperor Penguin disappeared, the even more shocking thing being the mountainous body of the Ice Behemoth disappearing as well, their positions actually switching as the huge Celestial Beast found its body high in the skies and dropping towards the ground at an extremely fast rate!
"Attack!"
Elena's valiant scream rang out as the group below released colorful bouts of mana with their own skills towards the mountainous beat falling from the skies, the job of the Emperor Penguin not done as it waved its flipped once more, the silver light it released going on to cover the bodies of the Calamities of the Sea and the Imperial Phoenix as their bodies appeared even higher in the skies above the Ice Behemoth, their attacks also ready as they released them in a splendor of colors.
Attacks from above, attacks from below, and all while disorientingly falling from the skies!
ROAAR!
The Ice Behemoth let out another roar as the many attacks pierced its thick hide, its mountainous body acting against it as it smashed towards the ground at a horrible speed.
BOOM! CRUNCH!
The breaking of bones could be heard as the many skills lowered its defenses and pierced its skin, the fall damage going on to disorient it even more as the beings from the Order of Blood released even more attacks, not giving the beast even a chance to retaliate as they successfully went on to hunt their first Behemoth!
Scenes like these continued to spread out over the Celestial Realm, whereas in another location, the Righteous Fire Exploration Team was finis.h.i.+ng hunting yet another Fire Behemoth, Athena's potent Blades of Liberation striking down from the skies and ending the life of the mountainous beast.
"Haha, I never knew your abilities were this unique, being able to read the flow of battle like it is nothing!"
Boru's boisterous voice rang out as he looked towards Athena in admiration. The past few fights, Athena's unique ability shone as she actually began to conduct the pace of the battles, directing the teammates on how to move and expecting where the enemy would strike even before it did!
This led to a s.h.i.+ft in the paradigm where Boru was not the only major contributor in the team, Athena coming in close as their fights became easier and easier.
"With you two, maybe hunting an Elite Behemoth would be a possibility."
Boru's eyes shone as he said this, looking forward into the future as he gained the spectacular ability from Athena that allowed for his team to move even faster, and the addition of Crixus that released a unique attack from [Fate's Guardian] that even they weren't aware could be utilized to that extent, causing enormous Soul Damage to the Behemoths and taking them down even faster.
"Bah, an Elite Behemoth? Don't even joke. Maybe once one of us breaks into the Domain Expansion Realm…"
One of Boru's teammates replied while divvying up the body of the dead Behemoth, Noah smiling as he waved his hands and accepted a material that would create the last piece of the Incandescent Flameborn Set while enjoying the words of the Celestial around him.
Little did they know, his clone was trying to take down an Elite Behemoth right now!
