Chapter 1069: Sacrificial spiritual item identified, convert?

Li Yao's perception

could see that at the spot where the diamond-spiked frog's claws pierced the tree,

a rich life force was flowing along the monster's claws into its lower limbs and toward its body.

It wasn't just it;

above his head, all kinds of strange monsters were using their own ways

to suck the life force of the tree trunk.

Gainyate continued upward,

passing countless monsters.

The higher they went, the more powerful the monsters became!

Even,

at the height Li Yao was currently at,

the entrenched monsters already had the confidence to scan the giant dragon rushing up with an extremely violent gaze.

"It seems I misunderstood the first batch of monsters."

Li Yao said in a low voice.

Those monsters, as the lowest level above the clouds,

had their living space squeezed by these powerful monsters.

Every new monster that came up

would share their limited life force.

That's why they united and waited at the clouds to attack every new monster that came up!

And that cloud layer that could block perception—

Li Yao had a guess:

that giant spider, the Shadow Weaver,

wove the 'Shadow Cloud Layer'

to cover the endless life force above and the countless powerful monsters.

Just like the Demon Insect clan farming a group,

the Shadow Weaver regarded all the monsters above the clouds as its farmed food.

Perhaps,

a long time ago,

the Shadow Weaver was also one of these monsters,

walking out of endless slaughter

to become the most powerful monster,

and then occupying this towering giant tree to hunt to its heart's content.

As the position became higher and higher,

the air became thin,

but the life force was strangely rich.

Li Yao could even feel the viscosity of the air.

If there were a wound on his body,

in this kind of place, it would recover as before in just a few breaths!

The monsters entrenched at this height

were already beyond the grade of True-Name grade!

Their levels were even around one hundred!

If it were on the ground,

this would be an excellent place for leveling up.

But this is high altitude.

The only chess pieces that can fly are Gainyate and the Blue Bird.

If they were surrounded by these monsters,

even Li Yao would have to leave this place and avoid the edge for a while!

Fortunately,

perhaps these monsters cared more about the life force on the tree trunk.

Even though Gainyate kept rising, it was like a green light; the monsters they passed by only threw dangerous gazes and didn't take any further substantial action.

"Are they that hungry?"

Li Yao couldn't help but be suspicious. The life force of the tree trunk is inexhaustible.

Even if there were ten or a hundred times more of these monsters, it would be impossible to suck it dry.

Why did every monster seem so urgent?

"Gainyate, pull away a bit."

He wouldn't plunder this life force, and he had no direct conflict of interest with these powerful monsters.

There was no need to provoke them.

"Is it because of the Shadow Weaver?"

Li Yao felt it should be.

Perhaps because of the existence of the Shadow Weaver in the past,

they couldn't suck life force as unscrupulously as they do now.

They didn't know the Shadow Weaver was already dead,

only hoping

to be full before the Shadow Weaver returned.

Perhaps,

they knew the Shadow Weaver was already dead,

and were sucking life force with all their might at this moment to

become the next 'Shadow Weaver'!

"Swish!"

Gainyate rushed into the clouds again.

This time, it was ordinary clouds.

Li Yao's expression, however, was extremely grave.

An extremely strong aura struck from above the clouds.

Inside the clouds,

in the continuous white field of vision, Li Yao vaguely saw black shadows flashing frequently.

But he was very sure... ===== CHAPTER 1071 =====
