Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 490: Ancient Creature, Blade Master Thunder Fiery (II)

Boom!

The Three-Headed Dragon descended from the sky, and the now-cooled earth shattered and exploded. Countless pieces of soil and rock flew into the air, mixed with shockwaves that radiated out for a thousand meters.

Its three massive heads scanned the surroundings, eyes sweeping over the broken altar. It sensed the lingering heat and destructive aura in the air, and a serious look flashed in its eyes.

The enemy that destroyed this place was strong. The mere remnants of power in the air gave it a sense of danger.

But...

The Three-Headed Dragon noticed the smaller-than-expected footprints left behind by two different colossal beasts. A look of confusion appeared in its eyes.

The enemy was strong, and there were two of them. The strongest must have been at least quasi-mythical, or else it wouldn’t have been able to destroy the law's mark on the statue.

But why are the footprints so small?

As the Three-Headed Dragon’s three heads observed the surroundings, flicking their tongues to sense information, two ferocious dragon heads slowly peeked out from behind a mountain ridge, ten kilometers away. They belonged to none other than the Dragon Emperor and Silver Colossal Dragon which concealed their energy fluctuations.

The Dragon Emperor let out a low growl. We’ve waited nearly three hours, and finally, a beast has come. As expected, after the destruction of the statue containing the power of laws, the other side sensed something.

The Silver Colossal Dragon, mimicking the Dragon Emperor’s posture, crouched low to the ground, sneaking its head over the ridge with excitement. It growled in a hushed tone.

Roar! Ao Tian, it’s just an ordinary late-stage level 9 transcendent colossal beast. Let the great Saixitia take it down!

Although the Silver Colossal Dragon was only at the beginning stage of level 9, as a king-level colossal beast with dual top-level abilities, it didn’t fear the late-stage level 9 beast before it.

In fact, it was itching to fight, eager to experience the thrill of defeating an enemy stronger than itself.

However, the Dragon Emperor shook its head slightly and growled. Let me handle it. This is the Black Abyss King’s territory, so we need to finish this quickly. The longer we delay, the more things could go wrong.

With that, the Dragon Emperor’s massive body slowly stood up, and in an instant, a terrifying pressure exploded outward.

Boom! The ground shook, and the mountain ridge collapsed.

In that moment, the Three-Headed Dragon ten kilometers away roared in shock and anger. The blue-green flames surrounding it erupted, forming a domain, and the three heads glowed with an intense light.

The atmosphere quaked as three streams of blue-green breath shot from the mouths of the Three-Headed Dragon, merging into a single twenty-meter-long blast that soared into the sky.

Boom!

A claw wrapped in gold and blue flames descended from the heavens, striking the breath attack. In an instant, a dazzling explosion illuminated the sky, sending rings of blue-green light rippling outward.

However, despite being the Three-Headed Dragon’s most powerful attack, its breath was forcefully suppressed by the Dragon Emperor. Amidst the violent energy explosion, the Dragon Emperor’s right claw descended once more from the sky.

Boom!

With a strike imbued with the power of laws, the Three-Headed Dragon’s domain collapsed. A searing, corrosive shockwave ring exploded outward.

At the very moment the domain shattered, bolts of blue-black thunder filled with destructive energy surged, enveloping the Three-Headed Dragon.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Hundreds of bolts of True Destructive Thunder bombarded the Three-Headed Dragon in an instant. It roared in fury, its energy shield trembling violently as the invisible shockwaves forced it to retreat step by step.

Just then, a tail covered in black and red scales, sharp as blades, sliced through the air. Wherever it passed, even the space of the mythical world tore open, leaving behind pitch-black rifts.

Slash! Slash!

Under the terrifying tail blade that sliced through the void, two of the three heads of the massive python-dragon were instantly severed, and scalding blood gushed like a flood, shooting hundreds of meters into the air.

Before the python-dragon could react, the black-red tail blade swiftly slashed along its body, severing both its claws and legs in an instant.

In just a blink of an eye, this colossal beast at the late stage of level 9 was dismembered by the Dragon Emperor, its massive body crashing heavily to the ground.

Scorching blood surged from its wounds, staining the earth red.

It was only at this point that the remaining head of the dragon let out a wretched scream, lying on the ground in terror as it stared at the menacing colossal beast before it, which stood like a demon.

Most of all, it feared the terrifying tail blade that swayed slightly behind it.

Even the Silver Colossal Dragon, witnessing the Dragon Emperor’s terrifying "blade art" for the first time, widened its eyes in disbelief.

With the Dragon Emperor’s strength, it would have been no issue to subdue or even instantly kill this colossal beast.

However, the ability to dismember the creature with such a deft and precise blade art was unexpected, even feeling a bit incongruous.

The Silver Colossal Dragon had grown accustomed to the Dragon Emperor’s dominant and brute-force combat style.

Golden flames flickered on the Dragon Emperor's body as it lowered its gaze to the fallen dragon, its eyes cold and vicious. In a deep, booming voice, it growled. Do you want to live or die?

Immediately, the remaining head of the dragon hissed desperately. Live! I want to live!

As a top-level transcendent colossal beast, the dragon naturally wanted to avoid death if possible. For creatures like it, loyalty was not a concern.

They only served the Black Abyss King out of fear of its power and in exchange for certain benefits.

Roar! How many level 9 colossal beasts does the Black Abyss King command? What is it usually doing? How strong is it? Do you have any control marks inside you? the Thunder Fiery Dragon Emperor asked in a low, threatening voice.

The dragon, seeing a glimmer of hope, nodded eagerly. Yes, we have a mark in our hearts from the king. If I die, it will sense it immediately.

The Dragon Emperor’s voice remained deep and menacing. Continue. What stage of mythical power does the Black Abyss King possess?

Don’t hesitate. I can sense if you’re lying, and if you dare hide anything... As it spoke, the Dragon Emperor’s tail blade twitched slightly, tearing through the air with a sound like ripping fabric.

Faced with the threat of death, the dragon trembled and began to reveal everything it knew.

The Black Abyss King’s body was over a thousand meters long, placing it in the middle stage of mythical level, nearing the late stage. However, within the center of the hellish domain, even late-stage mythical creatures feared it.

The center referred to an area that had been completely contaminated and corrupted, roughly spanning over two thousand kilometers.

The middle zone extended between three to four thousand kilometers, where much of the land had been corroded by hellish lava, and the pervasive power in the atmosphere had been polluted.

In this zone, the Black Abyss King could still draw upon the vast power of heaven and earth, enhancing its strength several times over, making it truly terrifying.

Currently, the area where the Dragon Emperor and the others were situated was on the outer edge, where the Black Abyss King’s power did not significantly increase.

Under the Black Abyss King, there were two quasi-mythical-level colossal beasts, eight colossal beasts at the late stage of level 9, and over a million Scaled Fiery Race followers.

These aliens were divided into four large tribes, driving hellish magma outward and channeling the Black Abyss King’s power to corrupt and expand the land of hell.

The entire area of over ten thousand kilometers was under the Black Abyss King’s domain, but the northern and southern directions required more attention in defense.

To the north lay the Black Mist Sea, where vicious colossal beasts occasionally emerged to hunt the aliens, with a Sword Dragon Colossal Beast of quasi-mythical level stationed there.

The west was filled with void rifts, a dangerous area where they dared not venture deeply. The south, on the other hand, led to the Endless Mist, a region from which strange and terrifying creatures emerged.

Even the Black Abyss King had once entered the Endless Mist but quickly retreated.

Normally, six colossal beasts at the late stage of level 9 were spread throughout the southern area, guarding the followers as they directed the hellish lava.

However, half a month ago, an ancient creature appeared, devouring three late-stage level 9 colossal beasts and hundreds of thousands of alien followers, and led the mist to invade a large portion of the hellish domain.

Even the Black Abyss King didn’t dare provoke this terrifying creature and could only wait for it to leave before resuming the invasion of the misty region.

Such was the reality of the mythical world—no matter how powerful a mythical colossal beast was, absolute safety was never guaranteed.

Compared to those dangerous directions, this area was relatively the safest.

The passage leading to the undeveloped world was guarded by an even stronger Bladed Colossal Beast. All the creatures above level 8 in the surrounding area had been killed by it, making the advancement of hellish magma by the alien followers quite smooth.

After the dragon finished speaking, the Dragon Emperor appeared thoughtful.

A territory spanning over ten thousand kilometers, originally guarded by eight colossal beasts at the late stage of level 9, now had only four left, along with one quasi-mythical beast and a million cannon-fodder followers.

Of course, this "cannon fodder" was only in comparison to the Dragon Emperor.

Regarding the remaining forces, the Black Abyss King's strength was still within a manageable range. In fact, without the boost from the hellish domain, the Dragon Emperor was confident that it could slay the Black Abyss King.

However, within the center of the domain, it became a more difficult task. The Black Abyss King’s late-stage mythical strength, combined with its unknown laws and abilities, was not something even the Dragon Emperor could underestimate.

With a divine transformation ability and seven top-level abilities, the Dragon Emperor, in the middle stage of level 9, normally had the power to rival late-stage and quasi-mythical beings, reaching approximately the beginning stage of mythical level.

When fully unleashed in its dark red form, its power could even cross into the middle stage of mythical level, and within that stage, it was exceptionally strong.

This was due to its numerous abilities.

As for the late stage of mythical level, since it had never fought a mythical-level colossal beast, the Dragon Emperor wasn’t certain whether it could withstand such an opponent. It might lose, or perhaps tear the enemy apart.

Additionally, the alien race followers weren’t just responsible for controlling the hellish magma; they also had the task of planting the Black Molten Divine Fruit, which grew by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth.

This divine fruit was similar to a natural treasure, one of the reasons why the hellish domain left all life devastated in its wake.

Even the Black Abyss King could achieve growth and advancement by consuming the largest of these divine fruits.

Thinking of this, excitement flickered in the Dragon Emperor's eyes—there was something truly valuable in this.

The dragon cautiously raised its head and hissed. Roar! I-I’ve told you everything. I didn’t lie.

Roar! I know. The Dragon Emperor nodded slightly, as golden and purple flames coiled around its black-red tail blade.

Roar! No, you said—

Amid its terrified roar, the dragon’s massive head was instantly severed, and its soul and will were obliterated by the fusion force entwined around the tail blade.

As the dragon died with its eyes wide open in disbelief, the Silver Colossal Dragon let out a triumphant growl. Fool. Ao Tian only asked you to choose between life and death; he never promised to let you live.

Boom!

In the instant the dragon died, a black-purple force erupted from its chest, shooting into the sky. Immediately, a mythical aura, supreme above all living beings, emerged.

A massive black head began to condense in the air from the black-purple energy—Slash!

Before it could fully form, the Dragon Emperor’s tail blade, engulfed in flames comparable to the power of laws, swept through the sky, shredding the Black Abyss King’s projection before it could materialize.

Roar! A furious howl echoed from the void.
