Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast

Chapter 225: Breaking Through To the Sixth Stage, Divine Might Tyrant Body, Golden Dragons Heavy Gaze (I)



Chapter 225: Breaking Through To the Sixth Stage, Divine Might Tyrant Body, Golden Dragon's Heavy Gaze (I)

Two days had passed, and Qin Tianhu’s corpse quietly lay in the large pit. As time elapsed, the lingering majestic will and aura from the figure in white’s radiant sun attack had slowly dissipated, and the invisible oppressive feeling that had pervaded the surroundings finally vanished.

The sound of rustling gradually emanated from the woods. Soon, a mutated creature, over four meters in length and resembling a black panther, emerged from the forest, casting wary glances around before cautiously approaching the pit. It revealed a faint excitement in its bloodthirsty eyes as it gazed at the corpse, drawing closer with light steps.

However, the creature remained vigilant. Despite Qin Tianhu's body showing no signs of life, it approached slowly, seemingly ready to flee at any sign of danger. Drawing closer to the corpse and detecting the intangible scent of high-energy flesh, the mutated black panther emitted a low growl of excitement from its mouth.

Just like a mutated beast, the bodies of high-level cultivators had been tempered by the prolonged refinement of transcendent energy and the absorption of various resources to transform their physique, with their flesh containing a high concentration of energy. Such nutrient-rich flesh held great allure for mutated creatures.

Crunch!

The panther sank its teeth into Qin Tianhu’s damaged armguard, struggling to crack it further open and tear through the tough skin underneath. The smartwatch on his wrist, which had been protected from all of the previous attacks by his armor, was shattered in the process.

Roar!

Suddenly, the panther let out a wail, black blood flowing from its mouth, before collapsing to the ground with a thud, its life immediately extinguished.

At the same time, wisps of black poison gas began to seep out of the freshly made wounds on Qin Tianhu’s arm, corroding the air with a hissing sound wherever it touched.

These horrifying black mists were the energy Kuer had injected into Qin Tianhu to kill him. It was an ability unique to the Shadow Cult, integrating toxic true power attributes to corrode the true power, spirit, and flesh of Sixth Heavenly Realm cultivators.

When Qin Tianhu's smartwatch was shattered, a green stone core the size of a soybean within the watch fractured, immediately releasing an incredibly powerful pulse signal that was swiftly captured by a Celestial System satellite orbiting tens of thousands of meters above.

At one of the school bases over three thousand kilometers away, the intelligence department suddenly stirred, with a staff member shouting, "Shit, we just got a death signal from Tianhu’s smartwatch."

Soon, a figure engulfed in flames of true power shot out from the Bailong base, swiftly heading toward the Yunwu Mountain Range.

Meanwhile, on the large screens in the school base squares, Qin Tianhu’s name slowly vanished from the first rank on the Achievement List and the ninth rank on the third year Genius List.

While his death stirred some unrest, the majority of it was at the Bailong base. Those in the other school bases who noticed the change were merely surprised, and then it was back to business as usual.

He was far from the first genius to die in the Yunwu Range. Between the chaotic magnetic fields, the high-level mutated beasts that ran rampant, and the satellite system’s inability to properly monitor the area, anyone who entered those mountains had to be prepared for death, student and teacher alike.

After all, this was but one of the trials that the mutated beast battlefield presented. The schools weren’t babysitters, and the authorities had no interest in nurturing a bunch of pampered kids.

What they did provide was the freedom of choice; if students felt that the Yunwu Mountains were too dangerous, there were other options for earning contribution points and advancing their cultivation, such as hunting weaker mutated beasts in other parts of the battlefield, or undertaking tasks at the bases.

Despite all of this, however, the geniuses were still students, and the teachers would lend a hand to avenge their deaths and recover bodies or belongings to provide closure for their families. In most parts of the battlefield, the satellite system could immediately pinpoint the precise location to make retrieval easier.

While the system couldn’t do the same for the Yunwu area, it could still provide a rough location to search in. The powerful radiation stones within the smartwatches could emit signals for up to three days, even if swallowed by a mutated creature. As long as the teachers came within thirty kilometers of the stone, they would be able to pick up its signal and bring the student’s remains home.

***

Oblivious to the unrest occurring outside his cultivation room, Chen Chu swallowed the essence of the level 8 colossal beast in one gulp.

Boom!

A domineering and scorching power instantly exploded within him, enough to make even him feel pain in his stomach.

Fortunately, at this moment, a majestic energy also appeared out of nowhere within his body, half of it surging into his dantian. The dormant Dragon Elephant True Power roared out, accompanied by the sound of rushing rivers.

This time, however, the Dragon Elephant True Power didn’t envelop and refine the dragon essence as it had the last time. Instead, it merged with the essence, forming a special golden-red force.

Roar!

The mix of true power and essence faintly emitted dragon roars as it followed the path of the Dragon Elephant Tyrant Body’s sixth stage. Wherever it passed, the Dragon Force integrated within Chen Chu’s body was fully activated.

Boom!

Chen Chu's terrifying physical strength detonated, and waves of substantial power and aura emanated from him, spreading throughout the surrounding space and causing transparent ripples to appear. The air was compressed into substance and then rapidly expanded, gusts of wind filling the entire room.

The sixth stage’s cultivation path was more complex. Under the domineering Dragon Force, each obscure and subtle meridian was forcibly opened, almost covering every inch of Chen Chu's body.

With each revolution, his true power surged by a notch. Soon, it broke through to the peak of the Fourth Heavenly Realm, and then converged in his dantian and began to wildly compress. The willpower that Chen Chu had long met the conditions for integration instantly condensed at the center of the vortex into a crystal.

Boom!

A new true power, several times stronger, was born. In an instant, the aura of the Fifth Heavenly Realm exploded from Chen Chu's body, and the true power within began to operate at an even faster rate. When returning to the dantian after each revolution, it was purified by the integration of will and true power, almost seeming to become crystallized as it grew even stronger.

At the same time, the domineering dragon essence was continuously absorbed by Chen Chu's body, integrating into his muscles, bones, even cells. Patches of golden dragon scales, seemingly substantial yet also made of energy, appeared on Chen Chu's body, making him look like a humanoid draconic beast. As they covered his entire body, all of the Dragon Force within him instantly connected together.

Roar!

In an instant, a genuine dragon roar resounded within Chen Chu's body, and his entire aura suddenly changed, as a divine power more dominant than a dragon’s and more ferocious than an elephant’s erupted.

Boom!

A ring of white air waves exploded around Chen Chu from the force of the power. The entire cultivation room trembled, and the wind howled.

Crack! Crack!

Under Chen Chu's feet, the sturdy bluestone floor continuously cracked and sank, seemingly unable to bear his presence and forming a three-meter-diameter pit.

Huff! Huff! Huff! Huff!

After the Dragon Force’s connection, Chen Chu's physical essence underwent a frantic enhancement in another way. Suddenly, his breathing became heavier, stirring up gusts of wild winds. His shoulder length black hair moved without wind, while an inexplicable divine power emanated from his brow, resembling a slumbering deity.

At the same time, the Dragon Elephant Phantom within Chen Chu's sea of consciousness also roared.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Under the pure power derived from the conversion of attribute points, the transparent Dragon Elephant Phantom became clearer and clearer. Gradually, a colossal beast the size of a mountain emerged in Chen Chu's sea of consciousness.

Boom!

As Chen Chu’s willpower continued to grow in strength, the Dragon Elephant’s spiritual will fully condensed. In an instant, a heavy aura, suppressing the heavens and earth, pervaded the surroundings.

A white mist of spiritual force enveloped the Dragon Elephant as it emitted an indescribable pressure, resembling a mythical beast emerging from legends and treading the heavens.

Under the influence of this heavy and oppressive aura, Chen Chu's sea of consciousness suddenly became extremely stable. The maximally enhanced Insightful Eye Realm suddenly condensed; the Blade of Void rune appeared from the depths and merged into the space in between the Dragon Elephant’s eyebrows.

A pattern resembling an eye formed on its forehead, and a strange sensation surged in Chen Chu's mind. It was as if he had gained an extra eye in between his eyebrows, capable of observing the void of the heavens and earth, and with a single thought, transforming into an invisible blade to cut through all emptiness.

This change surprised Chen Chu, but he wasn’t able to investigate further, as his consciousness was plunged into countless martial art insights.

This breakthrough took a long time. It wasn't until two hours later that Chen Chu slowly opened golden eyes that shone like stars. Compared to before, those golden dragon eyes were completely formed this time, exuding the majesty, nobility, dominance, and aloofness characteristic of dragonkind.

Another layer of the world became very clear in Chen Chu's eyes. He could clearly see faint rifts appearing and disappearing in the room around him. It was as if space was not a single plane, but rather many layers overlapping.

However, it currently seemed like there weren’t any special abilities connected to these new eyes. Chen Chu raised an eyebrow slightly; it couldn’t be that simple.

With this in mind, Chen Chu summoned the attribute page with a single thought.

Chen Chu's gaze fell on the newly awakened ability, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He hadn't expected spacial abilities to become involved. On top of that, just awakening it could already influence spatial fluctuations to some extent, but what that extent was could only be figured out after further testing.

However, what Chen Chu valued most was this passive ability to observe the essence of space. By the time he reached the Ninth Heavenly Realm in the future, he would likely be able to comprehend the laws of space through the Double Pupil. By then, once he broke through to the king level, he would become extremely terrifying.
