Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 388: The Battle to Destroy the Nation, the Terrifying Dragon Emperor

Chapter 388: The Battle to Destroy the 'Nation,' the Terrifying Dragon Emperor

The colossal beasts of the Dragon Palace once again emerged in full force, with the exception of Baxia the Deep Sea Dragon Turtle.

This time, however, their target was deep beneath the sea, so the Thunder Fiery Dragon Emperor didn’t summon a storm of thunderclouds to ride upon. Instead, it unfurled its thunderbolt wings and shot out like a blazing streak of fire.

As it moved at supersonic speeds, the water behind it continuously exploded, forming a white trail over a hundred meters wide that extended to both sides in a grand spectacle.

Yet, soon enough, the Thunder Emperor circled back, its body ablaze with golden flames. Roar! You’re too slow, hurry up.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! It’s not that we’re slow, it’s that you’re too fast, Thunder Fiery!

Beneath the deep sea, a Single-Horned Kun, enveloped in a black and white domain, swam with all its might. In the blink of an eye, its massive body surged forward several kilometers under the influence of the domain’s power.

Following closely behind were four mutated orcas, their enormous bodies—each at least forty-one meters long—racing through the water like giant torpedoes.

The slowest among them was a Blue Giant Crab, furiously paddling with its six long legs. Blue energy surged from its body, propelling it forward at nearly three hundred kilometers per hour.

Ahead, the Nine-Headed Serpent, surrounded by the red Ice Flame Domain, and the Silver Colossal Dragon, encircled by a green storm, moved even faster, surging several kilometers in an instant.

Yet, even at their speeds, they were still too slow in the Thunder Emperor’s eyes.

Roar! You lot, stop resisting!

Boom!

Blazing flames and thunderbolts exploded beneath the sea, forming the phantom of a colossal black-and-red beast that enveloped the four mutated orcas and the Giant Crab.

Roar! Follow me at full speed.

With a sweep of its thunderbolt wings, the colossal beast’s phantom instantly detonated the water with the power of its domain, propelling them into supersonic speeds.

Seeing its wife and children suddenly get taken away, the Kun’s eyes brightened. Squeak! Thunder Fiery, take me along!

From the depths ahead came the Thunder Emperor’s shout. Roar! Scram! Use all of your power to keep up!

Roar! Charge, I am going on a rampage today! The green storm surrounding the Silver Colossal Dragon exploded, transforming it into a streak of green light that shot forward.

Roar! Roar! Roar! Ghidorah, super awesome! The Nine-Headed Serpent roared as it retracted its domain, its entire body burning with red ice flames as it chased after them.

Squeak! Wait for me!

Watching the other colossal beasts disappear in the blink of an eye, the Kun grew anxious. The domain surrounding it instantly turned black, and like a shadowy beast, it vanished into the depths of the ocean.

After gaining their domains, level 8 colossal beasts not only stopped being clumsy due to water resistance and their large size, but actually grew faster and more powerful.

However, the price was immense energy consumption, akin to a person walking normally versus sprinting at full speed.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Beneath the deep sea, two level 9 and two level 8 colossal beasts left behind four trails of destructive shockwaves as they moved at supersonic speeds, their overwhelming presence exploding unchecked.

The slower orcas and Giant Crab weren’t just for the advantage of numbers—it was also to nurture them.

In the Thunder Emperor’s eyes, these were future workers for producing Life Crystals, so naturally, they needed to be trained.

By strengthening the mutated orca group, the speed of Life Crystal collection could be accelerated. The Thunder Emperor was even planning to expand the army, appointing them as "captains.”

The soldiers, of course, would be other mutated orcas. These creatures were highly intelligent, and with a few lead orcas guiding them, it could be possible to form a mutated creature army.

When the time came, this army of mutated beasts would be responsible for harvesting Life Crystals within their territory, eliminating any level 1 or level 2 mutated creatures that reached their peak level.

With a steady output of Life Crystals, its various abilities would soon be enhanced to top-level, including the main body’s Double Void Pupils and Soul Splitter.

As the Thunder Emperor contemplated its future plans, more than two hours passed before the aura of a level 9 colossal beast suddenly emanated from the distance.

The strength of this aura was so formidable that even from a hundred kilometers away, it caused the Silver Dragon's eyes to narrow as it growled. Roar! Batian, that transcendent creature is a late-stage beast.

A late-stage level 9 colossal beast, with its immense physical strength and abilities, was nearly at the peak of what a transcendent being could achieve, far surpassing the power of a middle-stage level 9 beast.

As a result, not only did the Silver Dragon tense up, but the Serpent’s nine heads also grew solemn.

The distant aura belonged to two entities: one was a late-stage level 9 beast, and the other was at the early stage of level 9.

The Thunder Emperor’s gaze turned cold as it issued a deep, resonant growl. Roar! Don’t be afraid, we’ll kill them both.

With five of its abilities having reached top-level, only a quasi-mythical peak colossal beast could pressure him now. The rest of the level 9 beasts weren’t worth his concern.

Nine thousand meters beneath the sea, a massive trench split the ocean floor. Below the trench, blue light flickered, dispelling the surrounding darkness and bringing some illumination.

This was another micro-world, resembling a small world of water and fire, with an entrance connected to the trench. The internal area spanned about ten kilometers and was filled with deep blue seawater.

A colossal beast resembling an eastern dragon lay sprawled at the bottom of the world, nearly three hundred meters long with blue and black scales all over its body.

This beast had four claws beneath its belly, a hornless dragon head, but small fin-like wings on either side of its skull, resembling a true serpent from myth.

As the Thunder Emperor and its forces approached within a hundred kilometers of the micro-world, the serpent beast suddenly opened its eyes upon sensing their approach.

Roar!

A shockwave erupted as the serpent's aura exploded. Under the overwhelming pressure, nearing the peak of level 9, the entire blue-tinted micro-world began to tremble violently.

The serpent's roar startled another level 9 colossal beast awake. This second beast, nearly 190 meters long, resembled a hybrid between a blue whale and a kun. Its entire body was covered in thick blue scales, with massive fins.

However, unlike the Single-Horned Kun, which also evolved with traces of the kun, this beast had grown many long, whisker-like tendrils from its jaw and fins.

Additionally, with its king-level bloodline aura, its invisible presence was only slightly weaker than that of the late-stage Serpent Beast.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Roar! Roar!

The two colossal beasts exchanged a few brief roars, then stirred up violent currents as they rushed out of the micro-world. The king-level Blue Kun then let out a deep bellow.

Roar!

Under the roar of the invisible soundwave, the sea area within a range of several kilometers shook, and several level 7 colossal beasts, either lying on the seabed or coiled atop small hills, began to converge.

Soon, illuminated by the blue light on the seabed, the Thunder Emperor and the forces of the Dragon Palace appeared, coming to a stop two kilometers away from their adversaries.

On the left side was the nearly three-hundred-meter-long Serpent Beast, black lightning crackled on its wrists, forming a domain that spanned over six hundred meters. The destructive black thunderbolts caused the water to boil and explode.

Their power spread for several kilometers, and under its tyrannical force, countless ordinary sea creatures were paralyzed and killed instantly.

As the Serpent Beast unleashed its aura and expanded its domain, the Blue Kun, a thousand meters away, did the same. Under its immense power, the surrounding six hundred meters of water turned into a black vortex.

The Blue Kun floated within it like an apocalyptic beast, its aura terrifying.

Within the range of these two level 9 colossal beasts, five level 8 colossal beasts also unleashed their power, surrounding themselves with domains as they faced off against the Thunder Emperor and its forces in the distance.

In addition to these, fourteen level 7 colossal beasts, each between thirty to fifty meters in length, were also gathered.

Compared to this formidable force, the Dragon Palace's numbers and the size of its colossal beasts were at a disadvantage.

However, when the Thunder Emperor was spotted, and its emperor-level aura was felt up close, both the Serpent Beast and the Blue Kun showed a grave expression in their eyes.

The level 7 and 8 colossal beasts trembled, emitting unconscious roars of fear, and two level 7 beasts even began to retreat, seemingly intent on fleeing.

This was the absolute suppression of bloodline levels. Even the late-stage level 9 Serpent Beast found it difficult to circulate its energy smoothly under the overwhelming pressure of the emperor-level draconic bloodline.

The Single-Horned Kun became excited, its tail slapping the waves and its massive fins flapping vigorously.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Thunder Fiery, that guy, and that one too—they chased us back then! Let’s get them, let’s kill them!

Roar! I see them. The Thunder Emperor growled, its gaze locking onto the Blue Kun. A hint of surprise and a strong killing intent flashed in its cold, golden, vertical pupils.

It hadn’t expected to encounter this colossal beast again.

Back when the Thunder Fiery Colossal Beast had just broken through to level 7, its body length was only thirty meters. While out causing trouble with the Single-Horned Orca, they discovered two drops of an ancient creature's blood.

After the Thunder Beast killed the guarding beast, it and the Orca waited for the restrictive barrier to dissipate. During that time, many mutated beasts also appeared,drawn by the blood’s aura.

Eventually, a level 9 colossal beast came chasing after them, trying to devour the drop of blood containing ancient energy. However, even that beast couldn’t catch up to the Thunder Beast, thanks to its Agility ability.

With the Thunder Beast luring away the level 9 beast, the Orca also managed to escape, and that chase left a deep impression on both beasts.

While they remembered the incident, however, the Blue Kun didn’t recognize them.

After all, it was hard to imagine that in less than three months, the mutated creature that was only thirty meters long, barely a mouthful for it, would grow to this extent.

On top of that, the Single-Horned Orca had also grown from twenty-nine meters to nearly ninety, and had evolved from an orca into a kun.

The Silver Dragon stepped forward, surrounded by its Frost Domain and slightly lifting its shimmering, crystal-like head to let out roar.

Just then, the Serpent Beast on the opposite side let out a savage roar. Roar! Leave, this is our territory.

The Silver Dragon roared back in fury. Roar! You vile transcendent creature, how dare you interrupt the great Saixitia! Today, I will make your blood flow like a river.

The Serpent Beast’s eyes grew cold, and it bellowed in anger. Roar! If you don’t get out of here, I’ll kill you.

The green light on the Silver Dragon's body flared intensely, raising a massive wave as it roared loudly. Roar! Why are you yelling so loudly? In a moment, I will have Batian smash your skull!

In response to the threat, the Serpent Beast repeated the same words. Roar! Get off our territory.

Before they could continue their roaring argument, the Thunder Emperor’s gaze turned icy, and its deep roar echoed through the sea.

Roar! Leave the late-stage level 9 serpent to me. Ghidorah, you take out that kun. Saixitia, you and Big Horn finish off those level 8 beasts.

Roar! Kill! A soundwave shook the seabed as the Thunder Emperor’s body flashed with firelight. In an instant, it vanished at an incredible speed.

Roar!

Just as the Thunder Emperor disappeared, the Blue Kun let out a roar of shock and rage.

It opened its tooth-filled, black-hole-like mouth wide, and a black vortex made of countless tiny spatial rifts suddenly appeared in front of it, spanning three hundred meters and swallowing everything in its path.

The Thunder Emperor had seen this move before, but this time, it transformed into a gold-blue light, and surged directly towards it.

Boom!

The Devouring Vortex, imbued with the power to tear apart space, collapsed instantly under the sheer overwhelming force. The violent energy sent waves of turbulence through the surrounding kilometer of water.

By now, the Thunder Emperor had already appeared above the Blue Kun’s head.

Boom!

The Thunder Fiery Domain, spanning eight hundred meters, was like a destructive ball of light as it collided with the six-hundred-meter Black Vortex Domain that enveloped the Blue Kun’s body. Blinding energy ripples erupted in waves.

There was just a brief moment of stalemate, and then the Blue Kun’s domain was crushed by the Thunder Fiery Domain. The Blue Kun was engulfed in the endless, scorching golden flames and destructive lightning.

Within the searing golden flames, a massive claw descended, grasping what seemed like a star.

Boom!

The domain around the Blue Kun, now shrunk to just twenty meters, shattered once more. Immediately after, an explosive burst of intense golden light erupted.

Boom!

In an attack equivalent to a miniature nuclear bomb, the Extreme Flame Explosion detonated in the water, causing the Blue Kun to emit a harrowing scream. Half of its body’s scales shattered, and its flesh was burned to a charred black.

The scent of blood triggered the Blue Kun’s ferocity. Its immense maw opened wide, and a force of spatial tearing descended upon the Thunder Emperor.

Boom!

In the blazing firelight, a sword-like tail over seventy meters long, covered in black and red spikes, pierced through the water to shatter scales and penetrate the Blue Kun’s chin, the impact force sending it flying.

All of this happened in an instant, causing all of the colossal beasts to be momentarily stunned, including the Nine-Headed Serpent and the Silver Dragon.

Wait a minute, Ao Ba, didn’t you just say you were going to take on that Serpent Beast?

While the others were caught off guard, however, the Thunder Emperor didn’t pause.

In the instant it severely wounded the Blue Kun, its feet crushed the seabed beneath it as it explosively surged toward the Serpent Beast at supersonic speed, leaving a trail of turbulent water in its wake.

The Blue Kun had already used the force of the blow from the Thunder Emperor’s tail to flee several hundred meters away.

Boom!

The Thunder Emperor was moving too fast, swinging its left claw as it passed by a level 8 colossal beast and instantly smashing its head into pieces.

Overbearing and ruthless.

Roar! Roar! Roar! Ghidorah, unstoppable, invincible, kill them all!

Amid excited roars, the Nine-Headed Serpent’s domain expanded dramatically, revealing its true form as a six-hundred-meter-long, three-headed black serpent, which charged toward the severely injured Blue Kun.

Roar! I will make rivers of blood flow!

The nearly hundred-meter-long Silver Dragon roared as its claw, infused with the destructive power of a black ice storm, pierced through space, appearing over a thousand meters away in an instant.

Boom!

The head of a beginning stage level 8 colossal beast was shattered by the claw, only managing to let out a single cry before being obliterated with ruthless ferocity.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Charge, kill them all, don’t let any escape!

Gurgle! Today, I am going to unleash a slaughter, I’ll take on twenty of them!

As the intense battle erupted, the female orca silently vanished into the pitch-black depths of the ocean.

Meanwhile, three “small” orcas, each at level 7, excitedly teamed up and charged toward the fleeing level 7 colossal beasts at the rear of the battlefield.
