Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast

Chapter 309: Supreme Ferocious Beast, Colossal Beast Emperor, Gazing at the Essence (II)

Roar! It's not just breaking through that leads to growth again, but understanding the essence of power, the Thunder Beast roared, correcting their misunderstanding.

This second growth, activated by ancient genes, had provided it with much information about transcendent mutated beasts. Among that was information about levels.

Similar to humans, with ordinary talents, geniuses, top-level geniuses, freaks, and ultimate prodigies, transcendent mutated beasts also had divisions based on their abilities.

These divisions included ordinary mutated beasts, elite beasts, lord-level beasts, king-level, and emperor-level. They indicated bloodline potential and represented strength and limits among peers.

Ordinary mutated beasts had only one low-level ability, and were weak in strength with little hope of breaking through to level 4, unless their bloodline evolved due to a fortuitous event.

Elite mutated beasts, on the other hand, had at least one middle-level ability and were stronger in combat among their peers, with the potential to grow to level 4, but little hope of breaking through to level 7.

On the other hand, mutated creatures with a trace of king-level bloodline, or those with awakened dragon bloodlines, were known as lord-level creatures. These creatures had at least one high-level ability, two or three middle-level abilities, and a chance to grow to level 9, possessing formidable combat capabilities.

The Dragon Turtle had high-level Defense, high-level Shockwave, and two middle-level abilities, its instant probing and integration into the earth to amplify its defense.

The Kun was similar, with high-level abilities like Gravity Devouring Vortex and Whale-shaped Shield, along with a low-level Energy Attack from its horn and middle-level Defense and Strength abilities.

This was why their combat capabilities were actually two minor realms higher than their current realm.

King-level mutated beasts not only had more abilities, but also at least one top-level ability, with the potential to grow into mythical colossal beasts.

The Silver Dragon, buffed with both king's blood and dragon lineage, was in this tier. It commanded top-level abilities like Spatial Force and high-level abilities like Storms, Frost, Strength, Agility, Defense, and True Dragon Power, along with several middle-level abilities.

Compared to the Silver Dragon, the Serpent, which was only lord-level, was actually slightly weaker in potential. However, it possessed high-level abilities such as Flames, Ice, Gravity Guidance, and Defense, along with middle-level abilities like Strength and Regeneration.

Combined with its late-stage level 8 strength, it could suppress the king-level Silver Dragon, which was at the early stage of level 8.

Relative to them, the Thunder Beast’s previous strength was due to its top-level abilities, Strength and Defense.

Along with the middle-level Thunderbolt and Golden Flames, high-level Agility, and two negligible low-level abilities, plus the extreme density of its physical form, it was able to overpower them.

Now, as the Thunder Beast was advancing, it was filling the gaps in its four abilities, enhancing them all to a high level. With several abilities complementing each other, it had become a colossal beast approaching the emperor-level.

However, it hadn’t achieved emperor-level status just yet. To do so, it had to possess four top-level abilities before condensing into the realm of law as a mythical colossal beast, with all other abilities at least at a high level.

At that time, not only would its combat power become astonishingly powerful, but it would also seem to affect its growth potential after becoming a mythical colossal beast, which wasn't the limit, as it turned out. There were even more powerful beasts above them.

In the ancient information the Thunder Beast had seen, those creatures that had surpassed mythical colossal beasts were so massive that they could block out the sun and cause earthquakes. However, that was still far from its reach.

Thinking of this, the Thunder Beast glanced at the Kun and the Dragon Turtle, roaring softly.

Roar! Next, I will help activate your innate abilities' condensation. Remember, when you break through to level 8, do not fall into complete slumber. Focus on comprehending the essence of power.

Although it was still a step away from emperor-level, the Thunder Beast still held some power. It could use the awe-inspiring authority of a colossal beast emperor to trigger their potential, activate their innate abilities, and advance the Kun and Dragon Turtle ahead of time.

However, this potential-triggering effect was only effective the first time, unless the Thunder Beast evolved into a true emperor in the future.

The Kun was extremely excited, flapping its fins. Squeak, squeak, squeak! I won't sleep, I will... I will become the strongest transcendent creature!

The Dragon Turtle roared in excitement. Roar! Thunder Fiery, come on, do me, I want to break through to level 8!

The corner of Thunder Beast's eye twitched, and it was unable to resist roaring back. Roar! Baxia, I just told you not to use words recklessly, and here you are roaring stupidly again.

No one knew what was up with this Dragon Turtle, who was becoming increasingly aggressive, and often spouting confusing words that gave everyone a headache.

The Thunder Beast noticed the envy in Saixitia and Ghidorah’s eyes, and its growling became soft once more.

Roar! When I help them break through later, don't resist. Let the power of your innate abilities activate and see if you can harvest something.

Roar! Ao Batian, can we do it too? The Silver Dragon was pleasantly surprised.

The Thunder Beast growled. Roar! It will have some effect, but not as strong as Big Horn or Baxia's. After all, your innate abilities are already stable.

Soon, the four colossal beasts, along with the three mutated orcas, dispersed outside the Dragon Palace at the Thunder Beast’s request. Then, Thunder Fiery took a deep breath.

Roar, roar, roar!

With a dragon's roar, the seven major abilities within the Thunder Beast resonated, and in an instant, a terrifying Emperor's Might erupted, shaking heaven and earth.

However, this time, there was no explosion of seawater or tsunami-like phenomenon. The invisible explosive Emperor's Might mixed with the dragon's roar, forming a profound and shocking force that enveloped the seven transcendent beings.

The Dragon Turtle and Kun trembled violently as they instantly reached the peak of level 7. The power of their innate abilities became extremely active, and a strong urge to sleep came over them.

Squeak, squeak, squeak! No, I can't sleep!

Roar, roar! Hang in there, I will also become monstrous.

Just as the two colossal beasts were breaking through, the Silver Dragon and the Serpent also showed surprise on their faces, as the powers of their innate abilities integrated into their bodies also stirred.

However, compared to the Kun and Dragon Turtle, which were manifesting their innate abilities from scratch, their integration was much less, only revealing the complete forms of their abilities. Nevertheless, this still helped them understand the essence of their own power to a great extent.

Under the Thunder Beast’s guidance, they began to engage in self-reflection.

Gurgle, gurgle!

The three little orcas lay on the seabed, emitting sleeping sounds like humans. Even their innate abilities and physical strength became extremely active.

This time, they had also encountered a great opportunity. How much benefit they would gain, however, all depended on their luck. With good fortune, one could awaken a hint of a king-level bloodline and become a lord-level mutated beast.

The Thunder Beast ceased roaring and looked toward a female orca not far away, growling softly. Roar! Keep an eye on them. I'm going to find something to eat to replenish my energy. After they wake up later, I'll help you trigger the evolution of your abilities.

The female orca lowered her head in pleasant surprise and respectfully replied. Squeak, squeak, squeak! Yes, Your Majesty.

With that, the Thunder Beast retracted its domain and turned its body. From the row of spikes on its shoulder armor to the ones on both sides of its dorsal fin, golden flames erupted from the rows of fine pores in between, instantly releasing a powerful thrust.

Boom!

A wave of hot air surged as Thunder Fiery shot out, effortlessly sliding through the water's surface and disappearing at an astonishing speed.

This was one of the changes from its growth—a jet-propelled acceleration combining physical mutations with supernatural powers, enabling it to move even faster underwater.

As for the skies... well, for now, flight remains out of reach.

However, it had a premonition that once its other abilities were enhanced to the top-level, it would be able to fly.

At an astonishing speed, the Thunder Beast covered over a thousand kilometers in just two hours.

Soon, it discovered its target in the depths of over two thousand meters—a level 7 colossal beast, over fifty meters long, with sixteen tentacles of varying lengths.

Boom!

Under the deep sea, the water exploded. The colossal beast's eyes only saw a flash of gold before an indescribable force descended, and its head exploded.

Immediately, there was a shockwave of explosive supersonic speed, almost ten times faster. The explosion's roar echoed through the seabed, unleashing a rolling wave of destruction.

In the raging waters, the ferocious Thunder Beast emerged, claws seizing the body of the giant squid and devouring it while it searched for the next target.

Over an hour later, having finished consuming the giant squid, the Thunder Beast found a new prey.

Boom!

Accompanied by a massive explosion underwater, the fifty-meter-long giant whale's head collapsed. Before it could react, it was instantly killed.

Not only these level 7 colossal beasts, but even ordinary level 8 colossal beasts were the same. In the dark depths of over four thousand meters, amid thunderous roars and flames, a black colossal beast over eighty meters long emitted an earth-shaking roar, its domain surrounding it.

Boom!

With agility, strength and a claw containing a dazzling golden fireball, the ordinary middle-stage level 8 colossal beast's domain instantly collapsed, its head exploding.

The Thunder Beast's gaze was icy, and it emanated an extremely ferocious aura, as the corpse before it erupted with hot blood. With its four major abilities leveled up, it now needed to quickly grow to level 9, hunt more powerful colossal beasts, plunder more resources, and nurture its main body.

While the Thunder Beast began its slaughter in the deep sea, in the hotel room, Chen Chu's face showed confusion. His eyes reflected a double pupil, with the inner black-golden vertical pupil emitting cold dignity.

Wherever his gaze fell, spatial fluctuations stagnated and froze. Even the occasional faint cracks appearing in the depths of space instantly vanished, forced shut by his gaze. Moreover, under the double pupil's state, the spatial layer appeared to become void, like a deep abyss.

Then... it was gone. The enhanced Double Pupil of the Void only caused spatial fluctuations to stagnate temporarily; it lacked strong attack power, such as being able to shatter space with a glance.

However, occasionally, there were traces of profound signs in the pitch-black void. These were traces of spatial manifestation, similar to the aura of the innate spatial runes Chen Chu had comprehended earlier.

The attribute page appeared before his eyes, and he focused on the notes about his innate abilities.

Innate Ability: Double Pupil of the Void [High-level, where the gaze falls, space stagnates, rifts close, can see through all illusions, directly perceive the essence of power]

"To see through all illusions, including the essence of space?" Chen Chu's gaze shifted slightly.

At present, what Chen Chu lacked wasn’t combat or explosive means; it was comprehension and understanding of all things in the world, as well as time.

No doubt, when it reached the top-level or higher, the Double Pupil would likely be able to do things like tearing dimensions and shattering space. For him, however, the passive aspect of seeing or even touching traces of space was more precious and useful than yet another combat-oriented innate ability.
