Chapter 528: The Source Eater!

ld Violet,” 。Violet then lowered her head and glanced at her own body. 。He had wounds on his legs, abdomen, and right shoulder. The blood had already dried. 。"Ignore me, I need you to focus on treatin...Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and didn't speak.

"This is the greatest characteristic of the Devourer! You can't disguise it!" Crimson continued, "But let me tell you, don't even think about getting any information about the Phoenix Clan from me!"

Phoenix Clan, Devourer of Sources.

These two things, Fang Yu had never heard of before.

Of course, the Phoenix Clan is easy to understand; it's simply a group of phoenixes, and Honglian is one of them.

And as for the "Devourer of Sources," Fang Yu had truly never heard of it.

According to Honoka's account, are these people also immortals

"You could tell me more about the Devourers. I'm very interested," Fang Yu said.

Could it be that Fang Yu is not a Source Devourer after all

If not so, why would Fang Yu possess an aura similar to that of a Devourer, and one so powerful

But looking at it from another angle, she is now completely in Fang Yu's hands.

If Fang Yu is really a Devourer, why would he talk so much

Remembering, the Source Eaters I encountered before, when they captured her kin, would just swallow their essence without a word…

The lotus's mind is becoming increasingly muddled.

Could the Fang Yu before me really not be a Source Eater

"I can tell you clearly that I'm not what they call a Devourer," Fang Yu said. "But I'd be willing to meet this group, if the opportunity arises."

The anger and determination on Honglian's face slowly faded, her breathing becoming more even.

"You... you're really not a Source Eater" Honglian asked hesitantly.

"Not really, but you're a little right. I have lived for a very long time, as you call it, an immortal." Fang Yu said.

"If you're not a Devourer, let me go first." Crimson said.

Fang Yu let go of his hand.

Honglian stretched her body for a while and looked at Fangyu, her brows furrowed, as if considering something.

A moment later, she spoke: "There is a group of cultivators who extend their lifespans by devouring the essence of high-purity spiritual beasts, called Essence Eaters."

Consume the source, extend lifespan.

Fang Yu's eyes moved slightly, and he asked, "How many people are there in this group"

"It isn't many, but they are all incredibly powerful. My mother, and many generations before her, died at their hands." Crimson spoke, hatred lacing her voice.

"If you say they are all immortals, then how long is their lifespan" Fang Yu asked.

"...I don't know exactly, but their lifespans are all over eight hundred years." Honglian said.

"Given how sensitive you are, have you ever encountered a Source Eater before" Fang Yu asked.

"I've encountered it, just a year ago," Honglian took a deep breath and said.

But she didn't continue. After all, this year had been an incredibly dark time for her.

A year ago, she was searching for her kin in Europe, but encountered the Source Eaters. After a fierce battle, she was severely wounded and barely escaped using her secretary as a shield. However, she fainted halfway through.

Later, she was discovered and saved by a mercenary group.

After that, she was sold by the mercenary group to Gary, that crazy man. She was kept locked in Gary's underground laboratory until recently when Gary brought her to China and she fought with Fang Yu. That's how she escaped from Gary's clutches.

Speaking of which, Fang Yu could be considered her savior.

If Fang Yu didn't remove the chip from her head, Honglian wouldn't be able to regain consciousness.

From this perspective, Fang Yu is indeed not a Devourer.

"You're not a Source Devourer, yet you're so powerful" Honglian asked.

"Strength is relative, I'm just a Qi Refining cultivator. Perhaps you should consider it from another angle... maybe you're just too weak" Fang Yu said.

Hearing the sarcasm in Fang Yu's words, Honglian, though displeased, had no way to refute it.

She fought Fang Yu twice, and lost both times decisively.

This is also why she was so sure Fang Yu was a Source Devourer before.

As a member of the Feng Clan, she was far more powerful than other spirit beasts of her kind, but against Fang Yu, she was utterly helpless.

This situation is exactly the same as when facing a Devourer.

"Let me ask again, is the Source Devourer an organization or different individuals" Fang Yu asked.

"Perhaps it's an organization, because they all seem to be extending their lifespans in the same way," Honglian replied.

Fang Yu no longer spoke.

For five thousand years, he has been searching for someone like him, but he couldn't find anyone.

What Hong Lian said about the Source Devourers is not actually the same kind as Fang Yu.

They need to devour the essence of spirit beasts in order to prolong their lifespans.

And Fang Yu, lived to be so old naturally.

He did nothing, remained stuck at the Qi Refining stage, and his lifespan simply stretched on.

However, judging by Honglian's tone, this group of people should be very powerful.

This actually piqued Fang Yu's interest.

He hadn't truly felt the thrill of battle in a long time.

Perhaps because of the thinning of spiritual energy, Earth's creatures are becoming increasingly weak, and even a being capable of summoning 70% of its power is hard to find.

And the Devourer might just be the opponent capable of making Fang Yu take things seriously.

"Do you have a way to find the Devourer" Fang Yu asked.

Upon hearing this question, Honglian's face changed.

For her, the Devourers were like nightmares.

After witnessing the tragedy of her kin being killed, she harbored intense hatred for the Devourers.

But deep down inside her, there was also extreme fear!

With her current abilities, she wouldn't stand a chance against the Source Eater!

She had stayed away from the Chinese mainland for a long time, just to avoid the Source Eaters.

She was afraid of being found by the Devourers and having her essence absorbed by them!

"...I can't find them, and... I don't want to find them." Honglian said, her voice dropping to a low murmur as she gazed down at the ground.

Fang Yu thought for a moment, then followed him.

"Forgot to ask you, where is this place" Fang Yu asked.

"This is...the burial ground of all spirits, our spirit beasts' exclusive territory." Honglian replied.

"The Bone Graveyard of Ten Thousand Souls" Fang Yu looked down at the skeletons on the ground, his voice filled with surprise. "So many skeletons, all killed by the Source Devourers"

"Honglian shook her head and said, 'These spirit beasts may have died anywhere. It's just that their kin or descendants brought their bodies back here, allowing their souls to find their final rest.'"

As words were spoken, the crimson lotus fell to the ground.

Before her lay the skeleton, half-buried in the earth.

This must be the remains of Red Lotus's mother.

Fang Yu remained silent, standing motionless beside her.

A moment later, Fang Yu's eyes narrowed, and he looked up at the sky.u. 。As long as the Qi family doesn't have any bad intentions, I will never lay a finger on them. 。I can assure you of that. 。Get your father to have a good sleep. Don't think about those things that...
