Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 810: Carving Out Hope, Departing with Time Beneath His Feet (I)

Chapter 810: Carving Out Hope, Departing with Time Beneath His Feet (I)

As the True Battle Demon God Form emerged—three hundred meters tall, with three faces and six arms, clad in black-and red-battle armor—a surge of invincible willpower erupted like a torrent, shaking the very heavens.

Boom!

The dreadful will shattered the clouds, forming tangible rings of white shockwaves that surged outward in all directions and hollowed out a space spanning over a hundred kilometers.

Around Chen Chu, blinding arcs of blue thunderbolts danced, while golden flames blazed from his arms and shoulders, radiating a searing heat capable of melting space itself.

Amid lightning crackles and blazing fire, Chen Chu stood firm with his halberd in hand. Behind him, four slightly-raised arms formed intricate seals, supporting a rotating platinum-gold light wheel.

This spectacle resembled the descent of a supreme deity from ancient times—majestic, divine, and overwhelming. His presence filled the world with awe, and within a thousand-kilometer radius, countless creatures trembled under the oppressive might.

In the vast forest, some dinosaur colossal beasts, already evolved to level 9 with bodies stretching hundreds of meters, shivered uncontrollably, too afraid to move.

Even the mutated vine lay limp like a massive python sprawled across the earth, paralyzed with fear as its main root quivered.

Yet the most stunned were Mr. Jiang and the others, along with the youths who had started cultivating at dawn on the plaza. All of them stared in reverence and shock toward the head of the battleship.

Their eyes fixated on the towering figure, surrounded by lightning and flame, godlike and demonic.

Mr. Jiang's voice trembled with emotion, disbelief thick in his tone. "T-This is the legendary divine manifestation! Mr. Chen truly is a divine powerhouse from the ancient human race!"

Shi Feitong, jolted awake, gazed through the torn-off rooftop, her eyes landing on the enormous six-armed, three-faced figure in the distance. Her voice faltered in awe. "S-So huge..."

Directly in front of Chen Chu, Shi Feirou was utterly dumbfounded. Compared to him, she was no larger than a fingernail. Trembling, she looked up, seeing only roaring thunderbolts and blazing flames above.

Though Chen Chu had revealed his true form, he had restrained a portion of his aura. Otherwise, someone like Shi Feirou, who wasn’t even an advanced body enhancer, would have been crushed to death by the spatial pressure alone.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Suddenly, heaven and earth quaked. In the azure firmament above, boundless dark clouds gathered and covered thousands of kilometers in the blink of an eye. The black clouds rolled violently, and dazzling purple lightning roared within them.

Alongside the storm clouds came an azure chill, followed by a supreme, authoritative will, descending like the very will of the Heavenly Dao. Countless mutated beasts and colossal creatures instinctively wailed in despair.

As Chen Chu unleashed all of his power, breaking the laws of heaven and earth, he triggered a reactive response from the Lost World itself. Much like a heavenly tribulation, the world sought to annihilate or expel this outsider who had surpassed its power limit.

Within the boundless black clouds, countless bolts of purple lightning exploded, illuminating the sky. At the center of the brilliant glow, a pillar of lightning descended from the heavens.

Boom!

Hundreds of meters thick and radiating pure violet brilliance, the lightning pillar connected heaven and earth. Its invisible yet overwhelming destructive force crushed all hope within those who witnessed it.

If that pillar, infused with the will of the world itself, were to land, it would instantly obliterate Mount Kawapode and wipe out everything within a hundred-kilometer radius.

"Begone!" A cold voice roared across the heavens.

Boom!

A black-and-gold halberd phantom shot into the sky, wrapped in five chains of law—death, void, soul, lightning, and flame. Each chain burned with radiant brilliance.

Empowered by the origin of these five high-level laws, the halberd's phantom expanded to thousands of meters in length, resembling a mountain suspended in the sky. It soared upward to twenty thousand meters above ground, clashing head-on with the thunder pillar high in the atmosphere.

Boom!

It was as if a second sun had appeared in the sky. At the point where the two forces met, a massive sphere of multicolored light formed, surrounded by arcs of purple lightning in a breathtaking and apocalyptic sight.

In a mere instant, the light sphere swelled to over a dozen kilometers in diameter, then exploded. Endless torrents of purple, blue, and black light burst forth. The surrounding void collapsed, and everything within range was annihilated by the devastating shockwaves.

Even Mount Kawapode, rising over ten thousand meters high, crumbled at its center, as its rock, snow, and sediment layers disintegrated.

The thick clouds above the sky were likewise obliterated by the endless radiant force, forming a vacuum hundreds of kilometers wide. Mist and cloud surged outward like a tsunami in all directions.

As the earth-shattering explosion swept the land, cracking mountains and shattering valleys, an invisible domain power spread from Chen Chu, shielding the mountainside.

Even so, Shi Feirou and the others felt their minds shake. Their ears roared endlessly, and the ground beneath them trembled wildly like crashing waves.

It took more than ten minutes before the explosion finally subsided. Shi Feirou and the others stood slack-jawed, staring at their surroundings in utter disbelief.

Towering Mount Kawapode had completely vanished around them. From the base of the remaining half of the mountain, everything within a hundred kilometers had been erased—the earth itself wiped clean.

Even trees a hundred kilometers away had collapsed or snapped, many of them now engulfed in blazing fire. Thick black smoke billowed into the sky, as though the end of the world had been summoned.

Meanwhile, ten thousand meters above the ground, an irregular black hole over a kilometer in diameter had emerged, surrounded by crisscrossing black rifts that stretched for hundreds to thousands of meters.

As Chen Chu’s full-force strike collided with the power of heaven and earth within the Lost World, the space was torn apart, opening a deep black void that pierced straight through to the world’s crystal wall. The chaotic powers of five high-level laws surged violently, interfering with the space’s natural ability to repair itself.

Although this world was in its declination era, its principles suppressing all transcendent strength, Chen Chu burned the fragment of law origin he had recovered over the past few days and shattered that suppression outright.

The cost was immense, and he could only maintain it for a short time, but it didn’t matter. After all, he was about to leave.

While everyone remained in stunned silence, Chen Chu slightly lowered his gaze toward Shi Feirou and the others. His deep and commanding voice echoed slowly through the air. "You will soon witness me opening a passage to the mythical world for you, but the vast world is infinite and far more dangerous than here. Colossal beasts of tier 8, 9, even the mythical level roam freely. Only when your cultivation reaches at least the eighth tier should you venture there. That altar is an ancient coordinate. Once you enter the vast world, activate it. It will guide you to resume the ancient path."

Without waiting for a response, and wreathed in lightning and flame, Chen Chu stepped forward. His halberd in hand, he shattered the void with a single stride, plunging into the depths beyond the black hole.

Boom!

The moment he entered, space trembled, as if it were accommodating a not three-hundred-meter figure, but a towering behemoth.

The Lost World reacted violently. As Chen Chu charged into the void, a powerful repulsion erupted from the depths of the world. Space erupted into chaos. Fragments charged with the world’s will tore into storms of black, sweeping across the sky toward Chen Chu.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Chen Chu stood unmoving, like a lone reef in a sea of destruction. The annihilating storm crashed down, yet he remained unshaken. Around him, five law chains rotated, forming a five-layered shield of light with his divine Absolute Barrier. Were it not for his planar world being sealed by the supreme principle, he would have used the Wall of Worlds as well.

Ignoring the rampaging storm around him, Chen Chu's expression remained cold. With heavy, unstoppable steps, he shattered the void and surged directly toward the translucent crystal wall at the world's edge. As he neared, the repulsion intensified exponentially. The spatial storm, strong enough to tear apart even mythical colossal beasts, raged with irresistible force. Even the Absolute Barrier, empowered by the origin of high-level laws, began to falter.

Bang!

As Chen Chu neared the world’s crystal wall, the outermost golden flame barrier shattered. Then went the second layer of thunderbolts, and the third layer of death’s gray veil...

However, when the storm of spatial fragments struck the void barrier glowing with black light, it passed through as if entering a dimensionless space, reappearing on the other side.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The storms of destruction clashed violently from all directions, unleashing fearsome energy shocks. In the blinding radiance, Chen Chu raised his halberd high.

In that moment, an aura of world-creation burst forth, so terrifying it caused the entire Lost World to tremble. The heavens fell silent, and all things paused.

A streak of halberd light, pitch-black and stretching a full kilometer, surged out, radiating a brilliance beyond words. Wherever it swept, everything was cleaved apart.

Even the world's barrier, formed by the manifested spatial principles of the world and appearing externally as a crystal wall, was torn open by the massive rift.

Beyond the barrier lay the endless azure expanse of a vast and hazy world. In the distant sky, colossal creatures floated slowly among swirling clouds.

The Lost World was unlike the Blue Planet. It existed deep within a dimensional rift of the mythical world, like a larger bubble clinging to its fringe. frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

Therefore, when the barrier was torn open, it connected directly to the mythical world. Moreover, because this halberd strike carried the essence of world creation, even this world couldn’t mend itself. A stable passage was formed, creating a gateway between worlds.

This was the hope Chen Chu left behind for these humans—a way to repay the gains he had received from this world.

Even the stone altar, capable of linking with the expansion legion, was left untouched. Or rather, it wasn't something he could take away.

This was a sense that came from the Insightful Void-Slashing Eye, an intuition beyond explanation. As his cultivation advanced, the Insightful Eye, once condensed from psychic power, grew sharper, surpassing even the sixth sense.

The space-time repulsion force that Chen Chu had dispersed earlier descended once more, this time with even greater backlash.

Boom!

From the depths of the void, a translucent river stretching across past and future appeared. It blotted out the sun and swept forward with overwhelming force.

In the storm of time’s fury, Chen Chu looked back and gave a small nod to Shi Feirou and the others beneath the passage. Then, together with the river of time, he vanished without a sound.

"Mr. Chen is gone..." As Shi Feirou watched the towering figure disappear into the depths of the passage, a hollow feeling stirred in her chest.

Whoooosh!

Just then, a violent gale surged from the depths of the black passage. It was the rich transcendent energy of the mythical world, billowing forth in vast waves.

The energy was so dense that it nearly turned tangible, appearing as white mist. Shi Feirou and the others instinctively took a deep breath, and the vitality within their bodies instantly roared into motion.

Whoosh!

As their vitality circulated madly, refining the transcendent energy they had inhaled, everyone felt a strange illusion—as if mere breathing alone could make them stronger.

No, it wasn’t an illusion. It truly was that overwhelming. Their bodies felt like dried-up deserts suddenly showered by torrential rain. Every inch of flesh and blood, every single cell, absorbed the energy like a starving man finding food.

The scene once again left them all in stunned awe.

Mr. Jiang’s eyes teared up with emotion, and his voice trembled. "The legends were true... The vast world is filled with dense spiritual qi. To breathe it is to extend life—to become a god."

Then, he knelt and bowed toward the black void in the sky, performing an ancient ritual none of the others understood.

With great reverence, he declared, "Respectfully sending off His Highness, Lord of Thunderbolt and Flame. We shall abide by your teachings, cultivate diligently, and one day resume the path of expansion, to follow the ancients once more."

Beside him, Gao Tianxiang blinked in confusion. "Mr. Jiang, why are you calling Mr. Chen ‘His Highness?’"

Still kneeling, Mr. Jiang solemnly nodded. "Yes, His Highness. Although Mr. Chen never revealed his identity, he must be one of the ancient human kings.

"This world, in its declination era, has principles so strict that even the peak tenth-tier War General Luotian couldn’t break free of its suppression ten thousand years ago. You can imagine how powerful it is.

"But today, Mr. Chen directly clashed with the will of the world, and tore it apart. That proves his strength surpasses even War General Luotian, placing him among the monarch level."

"Uhh... Mr. Jiang, how do you know all this?" The others looked bewildered, as if they were listening to a myth.

Ten thousand years had passed, and the ancient past had long turned to scattered fragments of legend in the Lost World. Though the outbreak of the apocalypse had confirmed the truth of those myths, no one knew the details, not even the identities of those mighty figures.

Staring at the passage above, from which white mist now poured, Mr. Jiang’s gaze grew distant. He slowly said, "Because my ancestors were part of a branch of the Tianluo Clan, descendants of War General Luotian.

"But after ten thousand years, that honor faded into nothing, consumed by countless wars. My family’s heritage has long been broken, and we’ve been unable to cultivate for generations."

Gulp!

Gao Tianxiang swallowed hard, clearly shocked. "I didn’t think you had such a background, Mr. Jiang."

Mr. Jiang bitterly smiled. "What background? I’m just an ordinary university professor. My cultivation talent isn’t even as good as yours. I’ve let my ancestors down."

Then he stood up, his expression solemn as he faced the others. "Now that spiritual qi from the vast world has begun pouring in, the path of cultivation has reopened. This world is about to change drastically.

"Especially you two—Little Rou, Little Tong. You’ve received the arts granted by His Highness. You must work even harder in your cultivation to live up to his expectations.

"It may even be that the hope of humanity in this world resuming the expansion path and rejoining our ancient race lies with you both."

Shi Feirou nodded slowly. "We understand, Mr. Jiang." Then she looked up toward the black passage in the sky, her gaze firm.

Though Chen Chu’s arrival had been brief, his presence had brought hope to this world, and his departure had left an even deeper shock. A few days later, a towering statue could be seen on the remaining cliff face of Mount Kawapode.

With three faces, six arms, halberd in hand, and surrounded by thunderbolts and flames, it stood tall above the sky.
