Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 753: Chen Chus Fate (II)

In the ruins of the shattered Moss Royal City, Chen Chu appeared in the skies above Moss’ castle.

As the ruler of millions of aliens, Demon King Moss had constructed a truly magnificent castle. It had stretched over twenty kilometers, with its central tower soaring a full kilometer into the sky, built entirely from black stone that gleamed like polished iron.

Every building within the castle complex had been carved with fierce reliefs of true demons, and beneath them, countless aliens and massive beasts were depicted kneeling in reverence.

Now, however, this castle, located in the western sector of the city, had been reduced mostly to rubble by a single strike. All of the guards and aliens within it had been annihilated, their bodies reduced to blood mist.

Hovering in the air above the ruined castle, Chen Chu quickly located the vault after a quick scan with his divine soul will.

Boom!

With a press of his hand into the air, the warehouse's heavy black gate, half-buried in debris, shattered with a thunderous crash. Behind it was the demon king's treasury, concealed within a space-compressed chamber.

Inside, mountains of minerals, rare materials, and partially tempered colossal beast scales and bones were piled high, releasing intense energy fluctuations.

While ruling over hundreds of thousands of true demons and millions of aliens, Demon King Moss had consumed a vast amount of resources.

After all, he was responsible for providing his subordinates with equipment, food, and paying their wages. Without these, their loyalty would waver, and no demon would risk their life working for him.

Despite the vault being filled with an abundance of resources, god-level materials were surprisingly scarce. Most of what was stored were high- and top-level minerals and materials. Even so, Chen Chu couldn't help but smile.

The sheer quantity of the resources alone was immense, and their total value exceeded seven million merit points—more than the combined rewards from ambushing the Demon Cult Alliance.

Compared to the relatively barren territories of the human race, the lands ruled by the Purgatory demon kings were incredibly rich. Even the unused materials left to gather dust held astonishing value.

The rarer top-tier and even law-level resources had been kept in Moss’ personal possession. When he died, they were destroyed and lost deep within the spatial rift.

In fact, Chen Chu even held himself back a little when killing the two demon kings, trying to prevent their storage items from being destroyed.

However, knowing their deaths were inevitable, Demon Kings Moss and Clore had used their divine soul power to detonate their storage rings, refusing to let Chen Chu claim their possessions after their deaths.

It looked like next time he went after a demon king, Chen Chu would need to seize their storage equipment first, then destroy their true form afterward.

Lost in thought, Chen Chu made a subtle gesture in front of him, and a black rift over a hundred meters long and ten meters wide appeared, connecting to the earth, fire, wind, and lightning planes.

Boom!

The air trembled as a violent suction force erupted, sweeping across several kilometers and engulfing the vault. Mountains of golden minerals and the essence of massive beast bones shot into the sky.

In the planar world, a black rift split open above the sky, and countless minerals and materials rained down.

The moment they fell, most of them were shredded by the raging winds, struck by blue thunderbolts, or incinerated into nothingness by golden flames.

Only a small fraction of the minerals could withstand the intense forces of the elemental winds, lightning, and fire. These resilient pieces slowly descended and formed a towering golden mountain.

The essence of the destroyed materials was absorbed by the planar world itself. It trembled lightly, expanding outward by several kilometers in mere moments.

Consuming vast amounts of the essence of heaven and earth was one of the ways to rapidly strengthen a planar world.

As it grew, Chen Chu could clearly feel the strengthening Law of Power that the planar world was nurturing. Countless insights into the profound mysteries of the law surged into his mind.

The progress in mastering the supreme law was related to the planar worlds that carried the laws. Therefore, during his three-day seclusion, Chen Chu's four high-level laws had all advanced to the intermediate stage, but the Law of Power had only improved from 24% to 28%, showing slow progress.

The Law of Soul had also only reached 27%, due to its recent transformation.

This was the downside of comprehending multiple laws at the same time. Each one required immense time, effort, and focus to cultivate.

If Chen Chu wasn't able to use attribute points to sustain a continuous state of epiphany, the progression in his laws would have slowed to a near halt after reaching the king level.

By the time Chen Chu finished pilfering the vault, the elemental planes of earth, fire, wind, and lightning had gained over ten mountains of various sizes made up of minerals.

Their diameter had also rapidly expanded from 1,100 kilometers to just over 1,200 kilometers. Not only did its spatial capacity grow, but its crystal walls became sturdier. At the same time, its ability to absorb and convert chaotic void energy became faster, continuously producing transcendent energy. This was Chen Chu’s reserve foundation.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the Blood Sea Purgatory, vast enough to blot out the sky, moved away at extreme speed, traveling at over twenty times the speed of sound and exceeding thirty thousand kilometers per hour.

Not long after Chen Chu departed, over a dozen streaks of black light appeared on the horizon. Several true demons, emanating the aura of beginning- and middle-stage Ninth Demonic Marks, descended from the sky.

"Where is Demon King Moss!?"

Looking down at the demon king’s city, now reduced to ruins, all of the Purgatory true demons who had rushed back from their respective strongholds after sensing the immense energy fluctuations were left in disbelief.

The territory under Demon King Moss was massive, and Chen Chu didn’t have the time to wipe out every single inhabitant. Besides, those ordinary true demons weren’t his targets.

Roar!

Suddenly, the mountains and forests trembled as a berserk giant, over four hundred meters tall and covered entirely in stone, emerged with a savage roar.

After devouring dozens of high-level true demons, thousands of alien corpses, and the flesh and blood of countless colossal beasts, the giant, previously in the late stage of level 9, had advanced to the peak.

Glaring at the true demons hovering in the sky, the giant, with its neck, head, and shoulders fused into a single monstrous form, raised a massive battle axe and let out another roar, like Xingtian from myths and legends.

Boom!

A tremendous, crushing force surged outward, engulfing the true demons. Every one of them paled, their demonic qi erupting in a desperate effort to resist the powerful Law of Gravity.

Over half an hour later, a panicked streak of black light shot away at high speed. On the ground, the berserk giant stood covered in blood, clutching the true form of a hundred-meter-tall demon and devouring it in great gulps. Violet-colored blood and chunks of flesh dripped from the corners of its mouth.

After it finished consuming the flesh and blood of the high-level true demons, the giant looked around, sensing lingering traces of blood aura in the air...

Boom!

The ground several kilometers around it shattered, and propelled by a massive recoil, the giant shot into the sky like a cannonball, soaring tens of thousands of meters before crashing down dozens of kilometers away.

Mountains crumbled, trees toppled, and then the massive figure leaped again into the sky before landing far off in the distance, vanishing under the blood-red moonlight.

Meanwhile, as Chen Chu was approaching the next demon king’s territory, news of Demon King Moss being killed by a mythical-level alien powerhouse reached the Dark Demonic Morkaya Empire.

It had spread even faster than Chen Chu had expected.
