Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 600: Obliterating Purgatory Clan Demons (II)
Chapter 600: Obliterating Purgatory Clan Demons (II)
As the mythical-level battle in the sky intensified, the dark-red colossal beast descended like an apocalyptic meteor, crashing down between Mech No.1 and the demon kings that were locked in battle on the ground.
Boom!
The ground within a several-kilometer radius erupted like a violent ocean, hurling billions of tons of dirt and rocks in all directions. The dust and shockwaves swept across tens of kilometers.
Looking at the dark-red figure standing at the center of the explosion, the expressions of the nine demon kings who had been attacking Mech No.1 all drastically darkened. Not one attempted to intercept the beast.
Wasn't Barus supposed to stop it?!
The demon king with the blood-red eye on its forehead was especially concerned. After all, the beast shattered half of its true form earlier. Its face turned even grimmer.
Mech No.1, now three hundred meters tall and free from most of its armor restraints, roared fiercely upon seeing the dark-red colossal beast on the battlefield.
Mech No.1 appeared small in comparison to the thousand-meter-tall dark-red colossal beast. Their height difference was like that of an adult and a small child.
It was unclear if it was due to Luo Fei's influence, but the beast instinctively did not attack the dark-red colossal beast.
Standing in the center of the battlefield, the dark-red colossal beast glanced at the nine demon kings, who were spread out over tens of kilometers, working together to restrict Mech No.1 with their long-range attacks.
Boom!
The space shattered as the dark-red colossal beast vanished.
"Watch out!"
The dark-red colossal beast reappeared in front of the six-armed, two-headed demon king who stood over four hundred meters tall. Despite the frantic warnings of the eight other demon kings, it was already too late.
Boom!
The beast shattered space with its claws and made the ground around the demon king crumble. The overwhelming force suppressed the demon king.
Looking up at the red claws above it, the demon king felt a surge of dread and panic.
"Save me!" it shouted angrily.
"Stop!" someone roared behind the dark-red colossal beast. Space exploded, and in the violent chaos, a massive mouth opened, revealing a terrifying demonic head that stretched over two thousand meters.
At the same time, a pale-white beam descended from the sky, withering everything in its path and scattering the laws of the world as it shot toward Chen Chu, who was still on top of the dark-red colossal beast.
The ground around the beast also split apart to make way for countless dark tendrils that stretched thousands of meters from the abyss. The sinister appendages pulsed with a malevolent aura as they coiled around the dark-red colossal beast.
The most fearsome of the attacks was a flaming dark-red saber light that was over a thousand meters long. It cleaved through space itself, staining it crimson as it slashed toward the beast’s neck.
Mech No.1 roared thunderously as it shot blazing blueish-white beams across the battlefield in all directions. The four demon kings who had planned to intervene were instantly struck with terror.
Boom!
Taking advantage of the four demon kings’ hesitation, the dark-red colossal beast crushed the demon king’s true form along with a thousand meters of space, asserting an unmatched display of dominance.
Chaotic lightning flickered about, ensnaring and subduing the shattered flesh of the demon king.
Like a master swordsman wielding a saber, the serpentine-like tail blade sliced through the demonic head and obliterated the dark-red saber light in a single motion.
The colossal beast shifted afterward, moving Chen Chu out of harm's way and deliberately exposing the dark tendrils on its shoulders and legs to the white corrosive light.
Boom!
When the white light hit the dark-red colossal beast’s shoulder, several kilometers of space around the beast began to corrode and crack. The laws of chaotic dark force also disintegrated the tendrils around its legs. However, the beast itself remained utterly unshaken.
"Die," a demon whispered in Chen Chu's ear. Its tone carried a malice so intense that it seemed to be judging life and death itself.
The instant a pair of dark-and-gold pupils appeared in front of Chen Chu the world drained of color. From the depths of the void, a cascade of laws with the power of death began to envelop him.
So this is the law of death?
The laws’ power rushed toward him, yet Chen Chu’s gaze remained cold and unaffected. Once the death law was within a hundred meters of him, the chaotic dark force surrounding the dark-red colossal beast shook and disintegrated it.
Compared to the dark-red colossal beast, which stretched over two thousand meters, Chen Chu was as insignificantly small as an ant perched atop an elephant’s head. Even the shortest of the beast’s spikes that surrounded him towered over sixty meters tall.
As long as the beast's defense remained invulnerable to all attacks, no harm could fall on Chen Chu.
All of the clashes and attacks happened in an instant. As the death laws shattered, a demon king in the distance coughed up blood, reeling from the devastating backlash.
Simultaneously, beneath the dark-red colossal beast's right claw, the pieces and spilled blood of the demon king clumped up together as it attempted to reconstitute its true form. However, the beast immediately foiled its plan.
The demon king was filled with dread.
"No!"
Boom!
Its eyes burned with madness as it sacrificed eighty percent of its origin law, making it rapidly swell amid its attempt to break free from the beast’s claws and enter an awakened form.
If crushed by the dark-red colossal beast, the demon king could just reconstitute itself by consuming some of its origin law. However, Mech No.1 could end its life in two bites.
Boom!
An indescribable force erupted from the red giant claws, which were intertwined with chaotic lightning. The resulting power suppressed the demon king’s swollen true form.
Roar!
Like a monster, Mech No.1 landed on all fours and appeared in front of the dark-red colossal beast. Its palm grew larger and grabbed the demon king's true form from within the beast's claws.
Crack!
Using the spatial seal on its hand, Mech No.1 forcibly compressed the demon king and the surrounding space to just a few dozen meters. Then, with a surge of excitement and ferocity, it chomped down on the demon king.
The demon king screamed desperately as Mech No.1 severed its upper body. Its life and soul energy shattered and split in half.
Mech No.1's aura surged, growing even more powerful and savage. The intangible energy it radiated made the other demon kings shudder with fear.
Even Chen Chu was intrigued by its fearsome ability.
"I will kill you and everyone related to you, Human!"
Watching Mech No.1 devour their comrade, the remaining eight demon kings lost all composure. They frantically burned their origin, making their auras intensify several times.
Fearsome dark demonic auras shot into the sky, once again swallowing the bright moonlight and plunging the world into darkness.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Attacks as powerful as nuclear explosions—made even more terrifying by the laws they contained—slammed into the colossal beast, making the ground tremble.
However, their attacks failed to breach its defenses, which not even heavenly kings could crack. As the explosion scattered nearly all the demonic clouds, the beast’s gleaming scales were revealed.
Seeing the beast's impenetrable defense, a sense of despair washed over the demon kings and enveloped them with a strong urge to retreat.
"Disperse and attack them. His power is not infinite. Summoning beings beyond his realm will come at a great cost,” Deorus commanded from the sky.
Meanwhile, Chen Chu took out another bottle of Heavenly Reincarnation Elixir and drank it. Instantly, his energy and spirit were restored to their peak.
Just as Deorus had said, Chen Chu was paying a price with every passing moment.
The dark-red form of the colossal beast was nearly invincible, an unparalleled mythical existence. Even king-level beings struggled to stand against it. In direct combat, a single swipe of its claw could crush a demon king with ease.
However, there was a difference between crushing and killing.
The demon kings had tempered their souls into demon souls. Unless their soul essence and law origin were completely depleted, they could regenerate their entire body from just a piece of flesh.
This was the source of Chen Chu's frustration. Killing a demon king required consuming a significant amount of the beast's laws, which meant wearing down the beast itself as well.
Chen Chu couldn't sustain such a strain in a battle of attrition. Hence, he instead chose to land powerful strikes that heavily injured the demon kings; he left the killing to the human kings.
Deorus continued, "No retreat! We will fight the humans to death. Anyone who disobeys will be slain."
Heavenly King Zhenwu laughed heartily. “Deorus, do you really think us humans fear the Purgatory Clan? We will wipe you bastards out today!"
"You are seeking death, Zhenwu!"
Boom!
As the battle in the sky intensified further, Heavenly King Gabriel also unleashed her full power.
Endless light poured from the sky as three pairs of white wings unfurled, stretching over tens of thousands of meters. The wings' radiant feathers bathed the world in a blinding glow. Beneath the light of the feathers, the auras of the demon kings began to weaken.
Meanwhile, Heavenly King Balong’s golden dragon roared as it tore through the tentacles of Great Demon King Jimtore. However, a massive demonic claw from the abyss struck the dragon in the same instance, sending it crashing hundreds of kilometers away.
The conflict on Battlefield Two was also growing fiercer. With both factions consumed by rage, the brutal nature of the battle left even the retreating soldiers trembling in fear.

In past wars, while injuries were not unexpected in battles between mythical levels and above, the kings and demon kings rarely fought so recklessly.
Although the two sides offered rewards for slaying a demon king or human king, sustaining heavy injuries and depleting too much of their origin power could hinder future progression and even cause permanent damage to their foundation.
Hence, the most brutal battles in previous wars were between transcendent-level cultivators, killing countless soldiers. Even then, thanks to the presence of mechs, human casualties were significantly fewer compared to those of the alien races.
However, no one anticipated that once the transcendent-level cultivators had withdrawn, the battlefield would turn into an apocalyptic war that forced both sides to frantically burn their origin in a desperate frenzy.
The Purgatory Clan was especially concerned, having already lost more than five mythical-level combatants. Chen Chu had killed a middle-stage mythical colossal beast and demon king, while Mech No. 1 had devoured three demon kings.
Although the humans had also lost a king, the Purgatory Clan’s casualties still weighed heavily on Deorus, filling him with anger and a cold, murderous intent.
Since the humans fought all out today, Deorus also vowed to fight to the end, determined to figure out whether human kings or demon kings would be the ones left standing.
