Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast

Chapter 206: The Infiltration of Purgatory (II)

Roar!

On the mountainside, a mutated beast roared ferociously. Twenty meters in length, it resembled a saber-toothed tiger, with red scales and horns all over its body. A long scorpion tail pushed its total length to thirty meters, and flames leaped from its body, igniting the surrounding vegetation. The power emanating from it reached the peak of level 5.

Within the sea of fire, the mutated beast moved like the wind. Each swipe of its claws caused a thunderous boom and shattered the ground when they made contact, accompanied by howling winds and flames.

Its scorpion tail left dents in the ground with each strike, intimidating the attackers who constantly dodged its assaults.

This mutated beast was being besieged by four cultivators. The weakest of them was at the late stage of the Fourth Heavenly Realm, while the strongest had reached the middle stage of the Fifth.

The third-year student at the middle stage of the Fifth Realm was the main attacker. His transcendent armor emitted a blue glow, protecting him from the flames, as blade qi danced on the two-meter-long saber in his hands. He cleaved through the flames, leaving behind rifts on the ground with each strike.

The violent battle had ignited half of the mountainside, and the raging fire had dispersed the surrounding mist. The momentum and thunderous roars of battle alarmed the nearby mutated creatures, causing them to flee in panic, while two mutated birds with wingspans of over ten meters circled in the sky, ready to scavenge any corpses from the battle.

Several kilometers away on a mountain peak, Chen Chu silently stood as he observed the battle below, especially the cooperation among the combatants.

This squad was formidable, all equipped with transcendent armor and weapons. While it seemed like they had been struggling to subdue the peak stage mutated beast for half a day, they were actually in complete control, wearing down the creature effortlessly without any injuries.

Facing the team of cultivators with rich combat experience and excellent coordination, the mutated beast didn’t seem to know how to conserve its energy. It maintained flames of several hundred degrees Celsius on its body, which was rapidly consuming its energy. Within ten minutes, its flames began to dwindle, and its aura weakened.

It was at this moment that the team leader shouted, "Attack!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In an instant, all four students exploded with their full strength. Two restrained the beast, while one assisted the strongest member’s attack as he brought his dazzling blade down on the beast.

Roar!

The beast let out a mournful cry as half of its neck was slashed open. Hot blood spurted out like a fountain, reaching ten meters high.

When the dust settled, Lei Zhan turned his head toward the distance. His gaze fell on Chen Chu, who was several kilometers away, and a wary look appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Chen Chu gave them a slight nod to reassure them, then disappeared in a flash.

After watching Chen Chu vanish, Lei Zhan said in a deep voice, "Let's tidy up and leave quickly. After that much commotion, we don't want to attract any level 6s."

"Yeah."

The four of them picked up the corpse that weighed over ten tons and left. The burning fire slowly extinguished in the surrounding mist that had regathered.

Soon, everything returned to calm.

As Chen Chu ventured deeper into the middle of the Yunwu Mountains, something else was happening three thousand kilometers away, near the end of the range.

In a valley filled with fog and mist, the space suddenly became distorted, then vibrated and collapsed. In the blink of an eye, a huge pitch-black rift opened, continuously expanding to form a rotating deep blue passage.

Whoosh!

A figure covered in blood rushed out from the depths of the passage with a bang, tumbling on the ground and rolling a couple times before stopping.

When the figure got up from the ground, it looked at the surrounding misty sky and the thin transcendent energy, as manic laughter broke out.

"Hahaha... I succeeded! I didn't die." In his crazy laughter, the blood on Ma He's body wriggled like worms and flowed back into his body. Even the blood on the ground seemed to have come to life, crawling back to him and healing the wounds on his body at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After stabilizing his weakened aura, Ma He suppressed the excitement on his face. With a flip of his hand, he took out a black crystal plaque from his body.

Crack!

As he exerted force, the black crystal plaque shattered with a bang. A substantive black force surged out, twisting and winding in the air like smoke, gradually forming a complex alien text.

As it formed, an overwhelming force erupted from the depths of the rotating spatial passage, emitting a dazzling purple light.

A surge of purple energy poured in, stabilizing and repairing the previously crumbling passage, and then another, burly figure emerged from the depths, causing the ground to tremble upon landing.

Similar to Ma He, this close to three-meter tall giant was also covered in wounds. His aura was weak, and his face looked like he had just survived a catastrophe.

"These unstable rift passages are too dangerous. Luckily, I didn't die."

More figures emerged from the spatial passage, one after another, each severely injured.

Suddenly, a person emerged with only half of his body left. He let out a desperate scream, "No! I don't want to die yet! Ma He, save me—"

Bang!

A gigantic foot slammed down on his head, instantly crushing it. His remains stiffened and ceased all movement.

Seeing this, Ma He frowned at the burly three-meter-tall figure. With a cold gaze, he said, "Kolant, what do you mean by this?"

The giant who had emerged second simply looked back with a wild smirk, looking very fierce. "Nothing. He was suffering too much, so I gave him a swift death. Don't tell me you could have saved him?"

Ma He snorted coldly. "Even so, it should be our people from the Blood Cult who take action, not you."

The burly giant grinned and waved his thick arm without care. "No problem, we're all members of the cult alliance. There's no need to thank me for such a trivial matter."

Ma He narrowed his eyes, and a strong red light emanated from him. The ground beneath him emitted a sizzling sound of corrosion under the red glow, instantly withering and decaying the weeds within a few meters.

"What, you want to fight?" As Kolant's heavy aura exploded, the oppressive force of his heavy and domineering aura made the surrounding land tremble under the sheer pressure.

Suddenly, the tension between the two sides was on the verge of erupting. Seeing this scene, however, the others who had emerged from the passage looked on with indifference, showing no intention of intervening. Some even smirked, as if watching a show.

Whoosh!

Another figure dressed in white rushed out of the passage, a young man in his twenties. With a handsome face and long jet-black hair that flowed behind him, he looked carefree and charming. Although the young man’s aura was weak, it was better than the others. Even his clothes were barely stained by blood.

As soon as this person emerged, everything around him fell silent, and a look of dread appeared in everyone's eyes.

Just then, from the depths of the spatial passage, a deep darkness emanated, causing the previously stable passage to tremble.

Kolant's face changed slightly. "That’s not good. Lord Maximus, your true demon aura is too strong. It’s being rejected by the blue planet."

The young man in white said lightly, "Don't worry, this passage is capable of accommodating all life forms below the Seventh Heavenly Realm, including those from the Purgatory Clan. Of course, there’s still the possibility of getting torn apart and scattered throughout the spatial passage if you’re as unlucky as those fools."

As the spatial passage continued to shake, a figure gradually emerged.

Resembling a humanoid standing at two meters tall, it wore a set of black armor, and wisps of black smoke emanated from the joints and wounds, enveloping its body. A cold face, covered in red scales and crowned by a pair of horns that slanted skyward, peered out from beneath its towering helmet, and a tail resembling that of a venomous snake swayed behind it, as if it was a devil from hell.

As soon as this figure appeared, an oppressive aura spread out, making everyone nervous.

Even the Blood Emissaries from the Blood Cut, the Apostles of the Giant Cult, and the Agents of the Shadow Cult, all possessing powerful auras, respectfully lowered their heads, as their legs trembled slightly

In the face of this terrifying figure, they instinctively felt fear and submission, and dared not resist.

This was a display of just how significant the difference in their power levels were.
