Chapter 1439: Slaying a Chaos Beast (II)
The chaos beast was quite eager to make a move. It could go on the run after killing the master of this world, seizing the dao universe, and claiming the world for itself. The temptation was too great!
It was so great that the beast was uneasy and apprehensive. It was afraid!
The disturbance here might raise attention from Red Moon major world. Although it’d concealed a thing or two, this locale was too close to that major world.
At the same time, this level of allure was sufficient for the beast to ignore the threat posed by Red Moon. It was just a wandering rogue in the chaos—a pretty term for being homeless. It didn’t have its own world because it was too strong for a mid or minor world, but not strong enough for a major world.
Regular mid or minor worlds could not support them. Even if those levels of worlds could, existences such as the beast would find it difficult to cultivate. On the other hand, major worlds were biased against outsiders. Newcomers were often turned into fertilizer instead. If the chaos beast could devour this world... it might advance from second rank exalted emperor to third, even fourth!
The chaos beast was so surprised and delighted that it was terrified.
A first rank exalted emperor was one that’d just verified its dao. That was the level spawned by minor worlds. Second rank was the equivalent of a master of a minor world, perhaps even stronger.
When it came to third rank... that was the usual level of strength for a master of a mid world. Some veteran third rank exalted emperors were even more powerful.
The exalted emperor cultivation level went by different names in various major worlds; the terms were starting to be standardized in recent years. The original plethora of names was not conducive to communication between chaos powerhouses. It was also a hassle when names were too obscure, so general consensus settled on names that were more direct and straightforward.
Chaos beasts found titles such as the Human King or Red Moon master difficult to understand the bearer’s true strength.
Regardless, second rank exalted emperor was not weak. That level of cultivator was qualified to walk through the chaos. At the same time, this level of strength was only the equivalent of a master of a minor world. There were many beings that could be categorized at this level. Only when they reached third or fourth rank did they have a place at the table throughout the chaos!
Based on the chaos beast’s cultivation speed, it would need to travel through the universe for tens of thousands more chaos years before it had a chance of advancing. But today, the opportunity was at hand!
