The other stalkers did not bother one another. They kept a safe distance between each other. They looked at each other and gave each other a smile.
One of the Sunlight Tadpoles fell away from the river. Although the collective was infinitely powerful, the individual was limited to its own power.
They had taken in too much power that was beyond their level, so a small tadpole fell off from the end of the golden river and drifted further and further away. The further a tadpole was from the collective, the smaller the energy they received. So, it kept swimming harder and harder.
One of the stalkers finally found an opportunity. It was a strange golden bird with red wings that were 16 feet long. It flew over and swooped down to swallow the straggled tadpole. The strange bird make a happy gurgling noise with its throat and continued to pursue the Sunlight Tadpoles.
It was a King Tier Red Tara Wise Eagle. Gao Peng could tell with a scan of his eyes.
