Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 816: Ancient Pact, The Python That Wrapped Around the World (I)
Chapter 816: Ancient Pact, The Python That Wrapped Around the World (I)
The moment the Destructive Dragon Emperor spotted the pale white python within the gray, hazy world, stretching over four thousand meters long, a grave look instantly surfaced in its eyes. Judging by its size, this Ancient Python was still in the beginning stage of the ancient titan level, just on the verge of breaking through to the middle stage.
By realm alone, it shouldn’t be a match for the Dragon Emperor. After all, when it had previously entered its Dark-Red Form, it had been able to stand its ground against two middle-stage demon gods. Although it failed to defeat them, the fact that it could contend with them head-on proved its strength was already comparable to a middle-stage ancient titan.
Yet now, facing this python which had yet to reach the middle stage, the Dragon Emperor felt a powerful sense of danger emanating from its presence—an overwhelming strength far beyond what its cultivation realm suggested.
Just then, within the world fragment, the Ancient Python coiled atop a mountain peak suddenly opened its maw wide and let out a majestic, tyrannical roar that tore through the heavens and earth. The sheer might contained within it sent tremors across the entire world, and the ancient pressure it carried pierced through realms and blanketed the void.
Instantly, the Single-Horned Kunpeng, Silver Colossal Dragon, and Golden-Blue Colossal Dragon all shuddered uncontrollably, an instinctive reverence surfacing in their eyes. Compared to this Python, their levels were far inferior, in both growth and bloodline. Just one roar was enough to strip them of their strength.
Yet the Little Purple Dragon atop the Dragon Emperor’s head remained unmoved. Its tail flicked lazily as it rolled over, nestling deeper into the black mane and continuing its slumber in comfort.
While the ancient beast's roar carried a warning and threat, the Dragon Emperor’s blood instantly boiled in response. As a colossal beast with a heavenly-tier bloodline, one that had been granted a true name by the world itself, pride was etched into the very core of its being. In this world, no beast of equal realm had the right to command it to leave.
A savage, domineering roar erupted and clashed with the Python’s aura across dimensions. The draconic power it unleashed rippled through a thousand-kilometer radius, shaking the fabric of the void itself.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Within dozens of kilometers around the Dragon Emperor, meteors spanning hundreds to thousands of meters were blasted apart by the roar’s shockwaves, rapidly crumbling into dust.
In the midst of this wild sonic storm, the Dragon Emperor released the others from its grasp and growled, This ancient beast is strong. Stay back when the battle begins.
As it spoke, arcs of red lightning coiled around its body. In the next instant, a horrifying aura erupted, so fierce it made heaven and earth tremble.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The entire world quaked under the crushing pressure. The laws of heaven and earth became chaotic, and energy surged violently across thousands of kilometers, roaring as it poured in.
Blinding red light bathed the void. At the center of this radiance emerged a dark-red beast of destruction, seven thousand meters long and over four thousand meters tall when standing upright.
In this form, the Dragon Emperor looked even more ferocious. Its entire body was clad in thick red scales, each one dozens of meters wide, etched with crimson lightning patterns, and bearing wicked barbs.
Its chest, abdomen, legs, and shoulders were encased in even heavier red armor. Its claws had doubled in size, becoming gleaming red talons that appeared monstrously exaggerated. They exuded a fearsome aura, as if a mere swipe could tear apart the heavens and the earth.
The most ferocious-looking part of the Dragon Emperor, however, was its head. Two red dragon horns jutted out sharply from its skull, engraved with spiraling patterns. Behind them, another pair of horns branched like a stag’s antlers, commanding awe and reverence.
Between the two sets of horns, arcs of red lightning twisted into a crown-like shape, radiating divine majesty. Behind them, thick scales resembling a mane had grown even sharper and more rugged, interwoven with strands of red hair hundreds of meters long, drifting without wind.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Red lightning imbued with the Destruction Law blazed across the sky. Wherever it passed, space was annihilated like fragile paper, and a twenty-kilometer-wide destruction zone formed around the dark-red colossal beast. Endless red light surged forth to cast the projection of the Dark-Red World, brimming with a dreadful aura of total annihilation.
Ao Tian is terrifyingly strong! Flung dozens of kilometers away by the shockwave, the Silver Dragon, Golden-Blue Dragon, and Kunpeng now floated in the void, their consciousness dazed and scattered by the ancient pressure.
As they looked toward the massive figure standing amid the crimson light, the two colossal dragons instinctively felt their limbs weaken. Their tails drooped in midair, yearning to submit.
Then, the dark-red beast of destruction moved. With a thunderous step that shattered space, it appeared before the boundary of the gray-hued world, and its claws plunged deep into the dimensional rift.
Boom!
The entire world quaked. Above, a rift over a hundred thousand meters long tore across the sky like an abyss, as a crimson beast radiating a terrifying aura appeared from its depths.
Roar!
As the red colossal beast tore into the world, the Ancient Python, its body over 4,600 meters long, let out a majestic roar. In an instant, the earth spanning more than 20,000 kilometers trembled violently.
The heavens and earth shook. A crushing force descended, and the newly arrived dark-red beast felt its immense body sink, plummeting like a red comet from the sky.
Boom!
The earth over several hundred kilometers around the Dragon Emperor fractured. Countless boulders erupted like a tsunami, layer upon layer blasting upward as they were flung tens of thousands of meters into the air.
This vast land, composed of gray mountains and rock that stretched across twenty thousand kilometers, was imbued with the Python’s principle power; more accurately, the Python had thoroughly refined it.
As a result, with a mere thought, the Python could command the world itself, increasing its gravity to an unbearable magnitude to suppress the Dragon Emperor. It was as though an entire continent had fallen from the sky; even the Dragon Emperor could be subdued under such a weight.
At that very moment, however, amid the haze of dust, a deafening draconic roar exploded, and an overwhelming power of destruction surged skyward.
The force dispersed the surrounding haze across a thousand kilometers, revealing the shattered earth, the hundred-kilometer-wide crater, and the crimson beast at its center.
Crack! Crack!
Beneath the dark-red beast, the durable gray ground, compressed to an extreme density under immense pressure, began to fracture. Rifts spread outward, trying to seal the Dragon Emperor deep beneath the earth.
Yet, no matter how heavily the world weighed upon it, the dark-red beast stood unmoved. Red lightning coiled around its body, and its golden-red vertical pupils stared coldly into the distance.
There, coiled atop a mountain tens of thousands of meters high, the Python returned its gaze with equal frigidity. Though over a thousand kilometers apart, the two stared each other down.
Boom!
Suddenly, the four-thousand-meter-tall dark-red beast slightly lifted its head. One massive, blood-red claw reached into the void, as though grabbing hold of something unseen.
Roar!
It clenched its claws and tore outward with a violent yank.
Boom!
The entire rocky world trembled. The sky cracked, the earth split, mountains collapsed, and a massive rift stretching several thousand kilometers tore open across the ground.
As the Dragon Emperor ripped apart the principles anchoring the world, the immense pressure weighing down on it also vanished.
The moment the principle suppression faded, the space beneath the dark-red beast shattered. The earth erupted, and countless stones blasted into the air over hundreds of kilometers. In the shockwave’s recoil, the dark-red beast vanished, instantly traversing over a thousand kilometers at lightning speed and appearing above the Python’s head.
Roar!
The moment the Dragon Emperor appeared, the Python bellowed furiously, erupting with dazzling gray light as its form expanded. In a flash, the Python stretched ten thousand meters across the sky, its body armored in thick, gray jade-like scales. Its tail, thick as a mountain range, swept through the air, crushing everything in its path.
Boom!
As the two colossal beasts collided, a black spherical shockwave exploded outward. It was the pure manifestation of space itself being shattered by raw power. Everything in its path was crushed and destroyed. The land collapsed, mountains crumbled, and the surging dust clouds swept across a thousand kilometers like a storm.
Suddenly, within the chaotic turbulence, a savage roar split the air. The Dragon Emperor, claws tightly gripping the Python’s tail, swung with all of its might.
The Python howled in fury and pain as it was flung by the Dragon Emperor in a massive arc and slammed violently into the ground like a crashing mountain. The impact radiated a cataclysmic force.
Boom!
The entire world fragment trembled. The land erupted, carving a passage of destruction over a thousand kilometers long.
Just as the Python was smashed into the ground, the Dragon Emperor abruptly released its grip. It vanished and reappeared hundreds of kilometers away with a speed that defied its size, leaving behind a crimson afterimage.
Whoosh!
At that moment, a gray breath beam, several hundred meters thick, tore through the dust where the beast had just stood. Wherever it passed, space turned to stone, frozen in place.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of kilometers had become a petrified world.
The Dragon Emperor's eyes grew solemn as it observed the scene, thinking to itself, Such a powerful Petrification Law.
While it could normally ignore any transcendent power that didn’t exceed its own limits with the Chaotic Dark Force Law, turning a region of space into solid stone presented a different challenge. To shatter several hundred kilometers of space petrified by principle power would still require considerable effort, even for the Dragon Emperor. freewebnσvel.cøm
Roar!
Staring at the dark-red beast that had dodged its strike, the Python raised its upper body. A far more savage aura erupted from it.
Boom!
The entire world shook again, as the power of the principles governing the world descended once more. This time, however, it wasn’t to suppress the Dragon Emperor, but to empower the Python itself.
Crack! Crack!
The Python’s aura surged explosively. The gray-white scales on its body thickened severalfold, interwoven with principle patterns and exuding an unshakable, unbreakable force.
Boom!
The Python, ten kilometers long, surged forward like a gray streak of light. Wherever it passed, the earth shattered and exploded. In the blink of an eye, it rode a tidal wave of shockwaves and appeared before the dark-red colossal beast.
Its massive head reared back, jaws wide and exuding a suction force that threatened to swallow the heavens. Gray mist billowed from its maw, radiating an aura capable of petrifying all things.
In that instant, as the Python lunged at the Dragon Emperor, the beast twisted slightly. A tail blade wrapped in red lightning sliced through the void, flashing by as a streak of crimson light.
Boom!
The blade cut through everything in its path. A fan-shaped red light burst forth, its razor-sharp edge striking just beneath the Python's neck. Scales shattered and rocks exploded.
The force behind the slash sent the massive Python flying, transforming into a gray phantom that crashed hundreds of kilometers away, only stopping after leveling over a dozen mountain peaks.
Roar!
An enraged bellow shook the heavens. As the dust settled, the Python’s massive figure was revealed, a gash hundreds of meters long and dozens deep now visible beneath its neck. Such horrifying defense made even the Dragon Emperor’s pupils constrict slightly.
Another savage roar echoed across the sky. The Python, surging with the destructive force of a tsunami, crashed through mountain after mountain and lunged again at the Dragon Emperor.
As it roared, the land within dozens of kilometers around the Dragon Emperor collapsed inward. The ground and stone folded like a massive palm preparing to close.
Boom!
The red tail blade, thousands of meters long and wrapped in lightning, swept across the sky, crushing everything. It tore through the converging terrain, shattering the surroundings. The Dragon Emperor dropped slightly, and its twin claws lashed out.
The dark-red beast moved like a martial arts grandmaster, its right claw seizing the side of the incoming Python’s head, while its left slammed down on the Python's neck with brutal force.
Boom!
The earth over hundreds of kilometers exploded, and countless stones flew into the sky, accompanied by a furious draconic roar.
Just as the Dragon Emperor was about to stomp on the Python’s body and tear its head apart, countless razor-sharp stone pillars, each hundreds to thousands of meters thick, suddenly erupted beneath it.
In a flash, the land across a thousand kilometers had transformed into a forest of stone spears. Towering peaks, some stretching tens of thousands of meters, rose like fangs from the earth, radiating an aura of absolute durability.
Boom!
Even the Dragon Emperor was hurled into the air by the powerful backlash, its massive body crashing into the ground a thousand kilometers away. Red lightning crackled across its form, releasing an apocalyptic aura.
Roar!
The Python glared down at the red beast with ferocity from atop one of the towering stone peaks. It had petrified the entire world and channeled the power of the realm into itself through principle enhancement, reaching an unbreachable level of defense.
Thanks to the influence of the principle power, its flesh was near invincible. In terms of raw strength, it was just barely inferior to the Dragon Emperor. Thus, even after entering its dark-red form, the Dragon Emperor could only suppress it slightly in a direct clash.
