Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 805: I Have No Time Left, Preparing to Leave (II)

As soon as all fifty-plus people boarded, Yunxiao's hatch sealed shut. The engines below roared with waves of heat shockwaves, and the fighter jet slowly lifted into the air with the aid of the anti-gravity field.

Upon reaching an altitude of a hundred meters, a tremendous thrust erupted from the rear. In the blink of an eye, the jet smashed through the air and entered supersonic flight, accelerating rapidly.

"Look! It’s the clouds!"

"Yeah, we’re flying so fast!"

"Mr. Chen is amazing. I wish I had a plane this cool too."

By the edge of the rest area, the teenagers crowded excitedly against the glass windows, marveling at the rapidly retreating sea of clouds outside.

Chen Chu commanded Yunxiao to enter maximum cruising speed, which was ten times the speed of sound. While he had the map for guidance, it only provided a general direction. The plan was to slow down only once they neared the White Lion King Empire’s capital to search more carefully.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At Mach 10, the jet’s shockwaves thundered against the air, forming visible white rings that tore through the sea of clouds in long, trailing lines of light.

Below, a colossal beast with a wingspan of nearly a hundred meters roared furiously. Before it could ascend to challenge the intruder, however, the fighter jet had already vanished.

Their speed was already within the normal mobility range of mythical-level beings. Even flying colossal beasts would need to reach the peak of level 9 to give chase.

Moreover, with the jet cruising at an altitude of thirty thousand meters, no creatures attempted to block their path.

In less than an hour, they narrowed the distance from the Lion King City to about a thousand kilometers, prompting the fighter jet to reduce speed and altitude. frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

The ground beneath them magnified rapidly, mountains and rivers blurring past. Soon, a ruined city appeared in their view.

Roar!

The jet’s appearance drew the attention of mutated monsters nearby, including one over sixty meters tall and covered in black scales like a demon. They all stared coldly and cruelly at the sky, eyes glowing blood-red.

When the jet dropped to an altitude of about one thousand meters, the eighth-tier demonic tyrant roared furiously. Its arms tore into the ground, wrenching a towering skyscraper free with brute strength.

Boom!

The tyrant hurled the hundred-meter-tall building into the air like a colossal cannonball. It whipped up a gale as it hurtled toward the jet.

Just as it neared, a flash of fire shot from beneath the fighter jet. The flying building exploded mid-air with a deafening roar. Amid the blaze, fragments of cement rained down like hail, crashing noisily onto the ground.

Right after, a massive white beam, more than ten meters wide, pierced through the smoke and dust, blasting down fiercely upon the tyrant's head.

Boom!

A sudden burst of dazzling white light erupted, as if a nuclear explosion had taken place. A massive mushroom cloud then rose gracefully into the sky.

The blast, comparable to a peak Ninth Heavenly Realm strike, swept across half of the city. The ground trembled, buildings burned under the intense heat, and mutated beasts within a several‐kilometer radius let out piercing, agonized cries.

In just one shot, half of the city was reduced to ruins and flames. The staggering display of power left Gao Tianxiang and the others, who were witnessing this for the first time, utterly stunned.

What shocked them even more was that the devastating blow had come from the jet.

The one-armed elder watched through the glass, then regarded the black-haired young man below with an emotionless expression. Yet inside him, a surge of turbulent, inexplicable awe roiled.

Where exactly did Mr. Chen come from? Can he really be a descendant of the long-lost Ancient Civilization, as Little Rou speculated?

The data on the side screen refreshed, and Yunxiao’s electronic voice announced, [Residual advertisement data detected on the building facades. Current location: Linshui City, adjacent to the Linjiang Mountain Range.]

[Recalculating the position of Lion King City based on the mountain range... Calculation complete. Location: seven hundred kilometers to the northeast.]

As the Blue Planet’s magnum opus in advanced technology, the king-level fighter jet’s primary function was assistance rather than combat. After all, even the mightiest jet could never compare to the king who piloted it.

Chen Chu coolly stated, "Depart."

Hum!

The engines roared, and the fighter jet soared skyward once again. Before long, a city built along the water came into view.

Lion King City had been grander and more prosperous than Tianxuan. Before the apocalypse outbreak, its population had exceeded ten million.

Yet now the entire city lay in ruins; the earth was shattered, only a few buildings remained intact, and the streets were eerily silent, devoid of any mutated beasts.

Thousands of meters above the city, Chen Chu commanded, "Yunxiao, scan every street and all roadside advertisements. Locate the library."

[Optical scan initiated...]

Moments later, much to everyone’s astonishment, a three-dimensional projection of the city materialized on the large screen.

[Structural comparison complete. Approximately 67% of the buildings in Lion King City are damaged. Optical scan ongoing—no suspicious creatures detected in the vicinity.]

[Language data confirmed: the National Library has been located.]

Yunxiao had just finished reporting when Shi Feirou, who had already seen the earlier devastation, exclaimed in disbelief, "No beasts in Lion King City? How can that be?"

"You heard that right," Chen Chu calmly replied. His pupils, now golden black, shifted toward the edge of the city. "They’ve all been devoured."

There, the land had sunk to form a canyon several kilometers long and hundreds of meters wide. The surrounding terrain was cracked, and collapsed buildings lay scattered, as if shattered by some colossal force.

In Chen Chu’s piercing gaze, he discerned a hidden presence beneath the earth—a colossal, octopus-like beast. It was over two hundred meters long and covered in brown scales.

Despite its semblance to an octopus, the peak level 9 colossal beast was different. Its enormous maw, which consisted nearly half of its head, was rimmed with countless razor-sharp teeth arranged in overlapping layers, forming a vortex of gluttonous destruction that was both horrifying and repulsive.

Chen Chu murmured, "Ms. Shi, take everyone to the library and help me gather the cultivation arts. I’ll handle the beast outside the city."

"Understood, Mr. Chen."

Whoosh!

Using divine abilities that allowed him to disregard physical obstacles, Chen Chu instantly disappeared from the jet. He materialized above the canyon, dozens of kilometers away.

Meanwhile, Yunxiao steered to the opposite side of the city, coming to a halt at a plaza in front of a library building that resembled an intricate forked structure.

Roar!

Chen Chu didn’t hide all of his aura. Hence, the moment he appeared above the canyon, the peak level 9 beast beneath immediately roared in rage.

The ground heaved like rolling waves, the earth cracked, and enormous, powerful tentacles burst upward, shattering rocks with brutal force. A gaping maw followed right behind, threatening to devour everything in its path.

Before the beast could emerge fully, an utterly terrifying force emanated from Chen Chu, shaking both heaven and earth. The ground rumbled under the strain.

Boom!

With one fearsome punch, he transformed the very landscape. High in the sky, the clouds scattered, and a void roughly ten kilometers in diameter appeared. Beneath the imprint of his fist, several kilometers of space twisted and contorted, seemingly caught in a vortex.

The punch didn’t create an explosion in the conventional sense; rather, the force condensed into a palpable surge. It made the earth emit a deep, resonant rumble, leaving behind a colossal fist-shaped crater that was three kilometers wide and a thousand meters deep.

At the bottom of the crater was a pool of dark-red, congealed flesh and soil.

To Chen Chu, a creature that not even ordinary nuclear weapons could kill was as insignificant as an ant—one casual slap could annihilate it.

After destroying both the beast and the terrain, Chen Chu descended slowly to a hundred meters above the crater. He reached out and, as if grasping at the very air, caused a slight tear.

Boom!

The compressed floor of the crater, which had become as resilient as steel, vibrated intensely and split open, forming a massive fissure along its edge. An intermingling of blood, flesh, and shattered earth bordered it.

"It truly isn't there after all," Chen Chu murmured with a hint of regret.

In this world lacking transcendent energy, a virus had driven the mutated beasts down an entirely different evolutionary path. Unlike those on Blue Planet, they didn’t have condensed Life Crystals within their bodies.
