Not sure if I understand your question correctly. Maybe you have a confusion about ideal and practical constant current source. Ideal current source will rise voltage as much as needed to achieve the set current. For eg. if we have ideal constant current source of 1A, and connect 1K resistor, the voltage will rise to 1000V to achieve that. In practice, constant current circuit is powered by some limited voltage source. So it may reach its limit of voltage output before it reaches set current and effectively becomes a voltage source itself. That is a practical current source. So if output does not draw enough current, CC section goes into voltage "starvation" mode, reaching its maximum possible output voltage and thats it, it stays there. CV is happy to regulate voltage, because it is getting enough input voltage from CC section output. If output is drawing current above CC set current, CC circuit goes out of voltage starvation and starts to work as an actual constant current source. And that causes CV section to go into input voltage starvation so it can not maintain output voltage regulation, so output voltage starts droping. Something like that.
