Village Head's Debauchery

Chapter 1280 - 1280: The Race With The Strongest Potential, The Calamity

Even the Spirit Beast took note of it and began to use it among themselves, as it could showcase their strength without revealing their actual age when they didn't want to.

The god was one of the many gods who ascended to true godhood and vanished after the emergence of the Divine Mysteries. Thus, his name has been forgotten in the annals of history, and only his immense contribution remains.

Spirit Beasts also utilised a unique energy called Spiritual Energy. This energy could only be found in the Spirit Realm and harnessed by Spirit Beasts.

Regardless of how powerful an energy was, its ranking was based on who could wield it, and when compared to a capable figure of the same level wielding another energy, only then could a proper ranking be determined. However, when either side's strength was halved during an encounter, whether in the Spirit Realm or the Material Realm, it was impossible to get an accurate result.

So, Spiritual Energy wasn't part of the official energy rankings.

Orion suspected that, in an unofficial ranking, it would likely be in the top four, right below Primordial, Vylkr, and Divine Energy.

The nature of the spirit beasts depended on the layer of the spirit realm in which they were born. Spirit Beasts born in the Lower Layer were malevolent due to their vicious nature.

The atmosphere was harsh and unforgiving, and even the territories gained sentience, inflicting harm or devouring Spirit Beasts mindlessly. It was said that life in the Lower Layer was much crueller than in the Middle and Upper Layers.

Considering how tough it was to survive in the Middle Layer, it was already unnerving to think about how treacherous survival in the Lower Layer must be. Spirit Beasts born in the Middle Layer could be either benevolent or malevolent. Of course, the nature of both parents influenced which one their offspring would inherit, but in most cases, it was still left to chance.

Sometimes, they possessed a dual nature and could hide behind either, given the situation. Spirit Beasts in the Upper Layer were solely benevolent. Despite their nature, there was still fierce competition for survival among them.

However, it was a relatively more peaceful layer, where even the Four-eared Elves could send their children unsupervised once they came of age.

In terms of potential and strength as a race below the Omnithriallians, Spirit Beasts were undoubtedly number one.

Orion couldn't help but wonder if this was why Naka had begun working on the Divine Crest to consume Spirit Beasts—perhaps as an alternative after his experiment with Vylkr energy had resulted in failure.

Nonetheless, Orion didn't want to waste time going from one location to another if all the Spirit Beasts were at this level. He would instead return to the White Winged Gryphon floating island and focus on ascending through demigodhood, sending his bonded servants to deal with the Secluded Spirit Beasts. While they awaited the Celestial Spirit Court's retaliation.

"No, Ice Fortress is a strong Spirit Beast in the Floating Frost Valley, but he isn't the strongest. The strongest is an Astrociat-ranked Spirit Beast. No one knows where they reside now or if they are still in the Floating Frost Valley. The last time they were spotted was near the Inferno Quill Hedgehog land, the Ember Caverns," Iy'yra responded.

"From what I've gathered, the Celestial Spirit Court forces attempted to eliminate them, seeing them as a threat to their control over the valley, but they failed. The Astrociat-ranked Spirit Beast escaped their siege, choosing not to battle, and hasn't been seen since. They didn't intervene in the annexation of the territory, so the Celestial Spirit Court gave up

"I wasn't certain if a member of your group was one of those Divine Apostles, and that's why I spoke up. If such information is released to others, not only would they begin to doubt your intentions, but they might also suspect that you are related to them," Iy'yra said.

"However, from the time you pledged to stand with us against the Celestial Spirit Court without knowing their true capabilities, I am confident that you are not connected to them. But it's best you don't reveal this information to others."
