Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 507: Terrifying Humanity, Rebirth Failure (II)
Chapter 507: Terrifying Humanity, Rebirth Failure (II)
After watching the silver aircraft vanish over the horizon, the Dragon Emperor flew down.
Although the main body and the avatar shared a unified existence, this encounter was also an opportunity to foster stronger ties with humanity. Still, Chen Chu had kept the interaction brief, refraining from disclosing too much information.
The Federation remained largely united against external threats, and its leaders valued geniuses, directing resources toward their growth and protecting them. Nevertheless, caution was still needed since not everyone was loyal to humanity.
In Blue Planet alone, numerous individuals had joined the demon cults. Across the mythical world, many cultivators defected due to threats or temptations each year.
This constant danger allowed the Purgatory Demon Clan and the demon cults to infiltrate.
After all, not everyone had a broad vision, a spirit of dedication, or a sense of racial responsibility.
Especially those cultivators who relentlessly pursued the extremes of power with a selfish nature.
When they stagnated at the peak of the Sixth, Seventh, or Eighth Heavenly Realms for years without progress, they grew desperate for a breakthrough, and the Purgatory Demon Clan’s temptations grew harder to resist.
Just the promise of advancement could lead some to sell their very souls and even abandon their humanity.
Thus, for Chen Chu, the safest course was to keep the existence of his avatar a secret known only to him, as it needed no one’s help to grow.
As for the Life Crystals, the more the Dragon Emperor’s territory expanded and its mutated orca army grew, the more the harvest increased.
Additionally, the path taken by its avatar, a colossal beast, differed from that of the human race, making it unnecessary to get too entangled for now.
The Silver Colossal Dragon, its red flames blazing, circled above the ocean and roared. Ao Tian, those two humans are strong, but I think you should be able to kill them.
The Dragon Turtle churned up massive waves, shaking its head.
Thunder Fiery is the strongest! Crush the humans, invincible!
Let’s fight!
The Nine-Headed Serpent, which had taken some light injuries after having its domain’s true form shattered by a single strike from Chen Chu, joined in.

Ao Ba, it hurts! Revenge, attack the humans!
The Dragon Emperor was rendered speechless. Revenge? You fools! Didn’t you hear me shout at Chu Batian to hit you?
The Nine-Headed Serpent froze, realizing what the Dragon Emperor meant. Its nine heads squirmed with some embarrassment. Ah, that’s right, Ao Ba! Why hit me, though?
Because I wanted to show you how strong humans can be.
Besides Chu Batian, there are many geniuses among the human race. Many can advance from level 1 to level 9 within a single year, each wielding battle power far beyond their realm.
Moreover, that mythical-level human warrior just now was only one of the top-level human elites.
According to Chu Batian, the human race has at least dozens of mythical-level powerhouses, eleven titan-level warriors, and even beings as powerful as ancient titans.
The colossal beasts gasped.
They had no idea how terrifying the human race was! A year from level 1 to level 9, with genius after genius like Thunder Fiery!
Each one could be as powerful as Chu Batian, strong enough at level 8 to defeat a level 9.
The Single-Horned Kun and other colossal beasts were shocked. The Silver Colossal Dragon’s eyes even widened. It was especially stunned since even its own mother was merely a titan-level beast.
Its confidence in standing before mythical colossal beasts and human kings came from possessing over ten scales of law imbued with titan-level beast power.
Throwing down ten scales of law could kill a mythical being.
But it didn’t think that humans would have over a dozen beings as powerful as its mother, not to mention ancient titan-like figures even more frightening.
No wonder humans can dominate the land in this world. That also explains why even Thunder Fiery, as formidable as it is, remains hidden in the sea, unwilling to surface. They are certainly terrifying.
With lingering awe, the group of colossal beasts followed the Dragon Emperor back into the ocean's depths.
The black beast’s flesh had nearly been consumed, revealing an immense black-gold skeleton, half of it resting on the open ground, the other half submerged in a swirling ocean vortex, towering over a hundred meters high.
The Dragon Emperor glanced at the remaining flesh of the colossal beast, feeling the abundant energy brimming inside its body and the intense urge to evolve.
But now wasn’t the time to evolve—there were still goals related to abilities that hadn’t been finalized as well as issues around ability enhancements.
With that in mind, the Dragon Emperor scanned the pile of Life Crystals on the ground and turned to the Single-Horned Kun and others, who were fighting off sleep.
Big Horn, Baxia, go get Horn Hime and the others; I need crystals.
As soon as the Dragon Emperor spoke, the red colossal beast Zhulong let out a slow, low growl. Humans... so... terri...fying... can’t...afford... to... provoke.
...
On the flight back, Chen Chu and Xie Chen, having wrapped up their business, sat by the table, sipping tea.
Xie Chen sighed. "Who would have thought, Little Chen, that you’d actually know that fearsome mutated creature?”
"I was just as surprised. I didn’t expect that mutated creature to have grown so much in just a few months,” Chen Chu replied humbly.
"Your own growth hasn’t been slow, Little Chen.” Xie Chen chuckled. "Back when you first met, one of you was in the Third Heavenly Realm, the other at level 4. Now, on this second encounter, one’s at the Eighth Realm, and the other’s level 9.”
As he spoke, Xie Chen couldn’t shake an ominous feeling, a sense that fate had ordained a great catastrophe on the horizon.
Guided by destiny, these two—a human and a mutated beast, both with terrifying talent and unprecedented genius—had crossed paths at the beginning of their journeys.
The aircraft pierced through the clouds, and the ground appeared ahead.
"Your Majesty, can we stop briefly at Tiannan City? I’d like to visit a friend,” Chen Chu suddenly asked.
"A friend?”
Chen Chu nodded. "Yes. Miss Yan Ruoyi, the daughter of Heavenly King Xuanwu. She’s been in a coma for a month now; I want to see if she’s woken up.”
Yan Ruoyi had fallen into her coma on the first of June and today was already July 5.
"Yan Ruoyi...” Xie Chen’s expression grew more complex.
Noticing the change, Chen Chu paused before asking, "Did Miss Yan Ruoyi... fail?”
Xie Chen took a sip of his tea and then sighed. "Not completely. The Life Transformation ritual is still active; she just hasn’t woken up within the expected month.”
As one of the kings overseeing the inner world, Xie Chen had kept a close watch on Heavenly King Xuanwu’s daughter.
Her survival was significant not only to her but also to Heavenly King Xuanwu and the Federation.
To him, who had lost his wife, brothers, and son one by one, Yan Ruoyi was his only source of solace. No one dared imagine the repercussions if she died.
He could be devastated beyond recovery or launch a crazed assault on the Demon Cult Alliance and the Purgatory Clan’s territories. With no attachments left, he could also simply disappear into the depths of the mythical world.
However, as one of the human race’s top warriors, having endured countless brutal battles, Heavenly King Xuanwu would most likely bury his sorrow and continue to fight for the cause of his people.
Yet, the earlier possibilities couldn’t be disregarded.
Therefore, the Federation had thrown its full support behind Yan Ruoyi’s rebirth ritual, supplying unlimited precious soul-related resources.
Unfortunately, she still hadn’t woken up.
Chen Chu fell silent.
A 30% chance was still too low. He sighed inwardly, feeling a deep regret for the graceful, noble young woman who possessed such vision and ambition.
The rest of the journey passed quietly. Soon, the silver aircraft arrived at Tiannan City, hovering above the Creation Research Base in the northern district.
The base immediately went on high alert.
However, the moment the radar scanned the aircraft and confirmed its identity, the alert was quickly lifted.
Amid the curious gazes of numerous staff and guards, the aircraft’s hatch opened a thousand meters high, and a figure descended from the sky.
Everyone’s eyes sharpened at once. Only Eighth Heavenly Realm powerhouses and above could fly. Such a person was already a figure of authority in the outer world.
For instance, the commander of the military base outside Tiannan City, Major General Li Qingtian, was a peak Eighth Heavenly Realm expert responsible for the safety around Tiannan.
When the man in the sky landed, many couldn’t help but be taken aback.
"How is this possible?”
"So young!”
