into a bolt of blue light, wanting to save Lin Feng."As expected of the protagonist of heaven and earth, a woman already throws herself at him." Jun Xiaoyao's eyes flashed with a faint smile.Then he...Three Emperors Barrier, Dongling Pass.

After several months of calm.

Suddenly……

A desolate trumpet sounded.

That was the summons before the war came.

Some prodigies who were meditating and sitting in meditation, heard the sound and suddenly opened their eyes, their expressions changing drastically.

There was astonishment in his expression, but more so, excitement and eagerness.

"Is there war again Perfect opportunity to continue my training!"

"It seems the Chi clan can't keep their restlessness in check. Well, it looks like the lesson wasn't deep enough."

If this were before, these prodigies' emotions would certainly have been a bit tense, worried, and uneasy.

But after the Tianjiao Blood War, they all gained growth and tempering.

Of course, the most important reason is still Jun Xiaoyao.

With someone who can slay those at the Quasi-Emperor level as their backbone and anchor, what could they possibly fear

With big shots leading the way, they could be much safer.

Soon, a gathering of talented prodigies were assembled in a plaza.

Jun Xiaoyao and others naturally came as well.

Above the square, a wizened old man stood with a solemn expression, his brows furrowed in thought.

He scanned the assembled prodigies and spoke.

"The reason I've called you all here, as you should already know, is that traces of the Black Plague Clan have reappeared."

"Heh, the Chi clan are really stubborn to the end."

"Looks like you haven't learned your lesson from last time and want to keep masochizing."

"This time, even if the geniuses on the bounty list appear, we are still unafraid."

All the talented young people present spoke, their fighting spirit high and morale soaring.

However, Lao Su's next words silenced the entire room.

"This time the appearance of the Black Disaster tribe is unrelated to the Baxi Tribe."

"What..."

Many prodigies were stunned.

They came to the Three Emperors' Barrier for trials, encountering only the Monster Clan and the Bāzú Clan.

So hearing the words from Master Su, some of the prodigies instinctively felt a little confused.

However, they also know that the Black Calamity Clan is called a clan not just because of the Barren Tribe alone.

The Bāzhī (or "Chimera") clan is one of the most prominent clans within the Heihuò tribe.

But that's just one of them.

"Senior, you mean..."

A prodigious talent suddenly felt a little uneasy and tentatively asked.

"Yes, there was an exploration team in the No Man's Land, in a region called Shattered Galaxy, who found traces of another kind of Black Plague."

"That is...the Devourer Clan!"

"Devourers!"

All the geniuses present, upon hearing this familiar yet strange term, felt a tremor in their hearts.

Familiarity stems from the fact that they have, in the past, heard tales of epic battles fought between many sea-faring clans and the Devourers.

What's strange is that these young elites who came here for training have never encountered the Devouring Clan before.

Given your backgrounds and experiences, I'm sure you've all heard at least a few stories about the Devourers.

"The Black Hordes are all utterly cruel, and the Devourers among them are the worst of the lot."

They are called the Devourers because their sole purpose for existence is to consume.

Not only does it devour all living beings, but it also devours the very essence of worlds one by one.

"Other Black-Disaster groups, you might still be able to communicate with them."

But the Devourers, they are a pack of savage beasts who know only killing and consuming.

"Once, the ancient calamity, a black scourge that devoured my border seas, wrought immeasurable destruction."

"How many World Origins were devoured by the Devouring Clan, how many billions upon billions of beings slaughtered and refined by them."

Upon hearing the words of the elder,

Some of the young geniuses present only felt their scalps go numb.

The previous fighting spirit and morale, as if doused with a bucket of cold water, had subsided.

"Moreover, in terms of numbers, the Devourers should be the most numerous race within the Black Scourge."

Countless hordes of the Devourers would surge like a cataclysmic tide, tearing apart and consuming entire worlds.

Sù Lǎo's words made all the Tianjiao in the audience hold their breath, each one frowning and looking solemn.

And if one were to say who was the most composed throughout the entire match, it would naturally be Jun Xiaoyao and other elite members of the Imperial Clan.

Before Jun Xiaoyao, although there was no understanding or research on the devouring race.

But briefly summarized.

Isn't the Devouring Race just the Zerg

Just like the Bāzhǔ clan, and Hànchǎn, which are related to zombies.

The Devourers are very similar to the Zerg, and can even be said to be the Zerg.

However, they were Zerg that had been corrupted by a strange aura.

"A world-ending calamity, the source of a sinister aura..."

Jun Xiaoyao, as he was enjoying himself, thought of many things. He also sensed a conspiracy and the presence of an unseen mastermind behind it all.

...with eerie auras and methods, it corrupts some special creatures, forming a terrifying black calamity horde. ...

What an astonishing tactic this is.

Of course, this is just Jun Xiaoyao's current speculation.

And at this moment, as if seeing the anxiety of the young prodigies present, Elder Su continued to ease the atmosphere.

"I tell you these things so that you will not be discouraged, and so that your hearts will not be haughty."

But this time, things aren't as bad.

The dispatched devouring tribe was not many, and their levels were not particularly high either. At most, they were just general-level devouring tribes. The threat level would not be particularly high.

But I don't know what their purpose is.

"So this mission, going to the Shattered Nebula, is also a kind of training for you. Figure out their purpose."

Upon hearing the Elder's words, a young prodigy suddenly asked: "Senior, do you mean that 'General-level Devourers' refers to the ranks within the Devourer race"

Although those present were prodigies, they only had a superficial understanding of the Devouring Race.

...will not be clearer about the levels of the Devouring Clan. ...

Su Lao Dao: “That’s right, just like the Bā tribe, you can distinguish their realms and bloodlines by the color of their eyes.”

"The Devourers also have a strict hierarchy."

That is slave level, soldier level, general level, king level, emperor level, and ancestor level.

"The Spirit Devouring Clan, roughly equivalent to the Seventh Heaven Realm of Supremes."

"The King-level Devourers are quasi-emperor level."

"An emperor-level Devourer clan is naturally an emperor-level being."

Although, at the same level, the Sha clan's strength is stronger than that of the human race.

But as long as you don't run into top-tier general-class Devourers, self-preservation and escape should be no problem.

Upon hearing Lao Su's explanation, the young prodigies present finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The Devourers are fearsome, but not without hope of victory.

"Well, after you get ready a little, let's depart." said the Elder Su.

All the outstanding figures present responded in agreement.

"The Devourers, huh That's interesting. Wonder what kind of accolades I can earn this time"

Jun Xiaoyao pondered.

Less than a year remains until the agreement is fulfilled.

This might be his last chance to earn accolades.

If one were to only slay the general-level Devourers, perhaps they could still earn a considerable amount of merit.

But it can absolutely not help you to achieve freedom and win this bet.

Therefore, Jun Xiaoyao has to ensure he can win the wager. At the very least, the standard has to be...d even more.For Chu Tianba, Tianming Zanghuang is highly anticipated, even hoping that he will manage the Palace of the Underworld in the future.But Chu Tianba died right before his eyes.In Tian Ming'...
