Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 392: Charge Together, Mythical Colossal White Dragon (II)
Chapter 392: Charge Together, Mythical Colossal White Dragon (II)
The Thunder Emperor and Ghidorah had killed the two level 9 colossal beasts. Of the five level 8 colossal beasts, the Thunder Emperor killed one, while the Silver Colossal Dragon took down four.
The level 7 colossal beasts scattered and fled in all directions as soon as the battle began, but it didn’t matter. They were not significant enough for the Thunder Emperor to bother with them.
The Blue Giant Crab and the female orca did chase after them, though. They likely managed to take down a few.
More than half an hour later, the Blue Giant Crab slowly crawled back from the darkness in the distance.
Its shell had suffered multiple damages, and it only had three of its six legs remaining, giving it an unbalanced appearance. Blue blood was still oozing from its broken limbs.
However, its large pincers were still intact, each holding the mangled carcass of a level 7 colossal beast. It laboriously dragged the bodies to the Thunder Emperor.
The Blue Giant Crab dropped the carcasses and looked up at the Thunder Emperor, who was exuding a powerful aura. Standing at the edge of the abyss, it excitedly released a stream of bubbles.
Gurgle! My king, my king! I exhibited superior strength this time! I even managed to take down two enemies!
The Thunder Emperor nodded and roared in response.
Not bad! You have proven yourself a worthy member of my Dragon Palace. Winning a two-on-one fight is impressive.
But remember, in the future, you should be more cautious in situations like this. You don't have absolute dominance over your peers yet. Just entangle and kill one; that’s enough.
The Thunder Emperor had originally tamed the crab on a whim, thinking the Dragon Palace needed a small gatekeeper.
However, after spending some time together, it realized that the Blue Giant Crab had some potential for cultivation. It was not only unafraid of battle but also immensely powerful.
It just lacked a bit of strength.
Although it had awakened a trace of king-level bloodline, its power was still too weak, only equivalent to that of an ordinary elite mutated beast.
If it hadn't enhanced its body and abilities by eating the flesh of the Black Tortoise colossal beast last time, the two colossal beasts it had defeated would have likely killed it instead.
Facing the Thunder Emperor's guidance, the Blue Giant Crab trembled with excitement and bubbled away.
Gurgle! As you command, my king! Next battle, I won’t take on just two. I will take on twenty! I will not let the Dragon Palace look weak. You are incredible, though, my king! You’re so powerful that you even obliterated that terrifying colossal beast!
The crab started off speaking normally, but the more it talked, the more incoherent it became. Feeling a headache coming, the Thunder Emperor suppressed its urge to smack it and roared instead.
Enough! Rest and recover!
Gurgle! Yes, my king! I’ll recover quickly and guard the Dragon Palace diligently.
Not long after sending the excited crab away, the female orca, exuding a strong scent of blood, returned from the darkness with three little orcas. In her mouth was the half-shattered head of a level 7 peak colossal beast.
The three little orcas were also dragging three half-eaten carcasses, the bite marks on them evidencing that the female orca had killed them.
The female orca placed the colossal beast's carcass before the Thunder Emperor.
Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! My king, this one contains Life Crystals.
The Thunder Emperor's lips curved into a grin, making it look even more fearsome.
Well done! I didn’t expect you to be more reliable than Big Horn.
The female orca usually didn’t draw much attention, but she was steady and calm in her work. She was also exceptionally intelligent, always considering things thoroughly.
Compared to her, the Single-Horned Kun was a bit reckless, always charging head-on into things, which was why his wife always chased him out to "find money
to support the family.”
If the three little orcas were left in his care, they would have likely died long ago.
The three little orcas also swam over, dragging half-eaten colossal beast carcasses, They excitedly circled the Thunder Emperor.
Hu Yi squeaked. Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Uncle, I’m super strong too!
Hu Er also squeaked. Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Unstoppable, absolutely unstoppable!
Squeak! I’m super fierce!
I’m impressed! You three are doing great. You're starting to resemble proper colossal beasts.
The Thunder Emperor’s praise made the trio even more excited.
The Single-Horned Kun swam over, looking a bit frustrated.
Squeak! I'm going to condense two hundred—no, five hundred slashing runes and refine all the scales on my fins. I'll take down ten in the next battle!
In this colossal beast battle, the Single-Horned Kun performed the worst, not even managing to kill a single colossal beast.
As a level 8 colossal beast, the Single-Horned Kun possessed extraordinary abilities, including the Heavy Water Vortex, Kun Shield, and Crystal Horn Beam. It also boasted great defense and strength and had the most powerful black-and-white alternating domain.
However, all of its abilities lacked decisive explosive power.
The Heavy Water Vortex had limited effect on level 8 colossal beasts with domains, the shield was not even worth mentioning, the Crystal Horn Beam’s power was even worse, and its defense and strength were, in truth, only middle-level.
If the Thunder Emperor had not taught it the slashing rune to enhance its fins and release some of its physical strength, it would have struggled to avoid being overwhelmed by the late-stage level 8 colossal beast earlier, let alone suppress it.
This highlighted how difficult it was to advance to higher levels. Even if one had powerful abilities and immense strength, their opponents would, too. Late-stage level 8 beasts were no weaklings, and the level 9 ones were even stronger.
This only further evidenced how truly extraordinary the Thunder Emperor was. As a king-level colossal beast with five top-level abilities, it remained invincible even at level 9.
In contrast, the Single-Horned Kun's wife had fewer abilities, with the strongest being her two middle-level abilities Devour and Crush. However, she could combine them for extremely deadly single-target attacks.
It was similar to the spatial rifts used by the Blue Kun.

The Silver Colossal Dragon swam over and raised its head proudly.
I took down four level 8 transcendent creatures!
The Thunder Emperor roared, generously praising it in response.
Saixitia! You truly are the great dragon king of the Dragon Palace! Invincible even among your peers, you crushed the colossal beasts with a mere flick of your claws. Impressive!
The proud Silver Colossal Dragon not only raised its head but also slightly raised its tail.
Roar! I have always been powerful.
The Thunder Emperor's praise had clearly put it in a good mood.
However, as the Silver Colossal Dragon basked in its glory, a six-headed serpentine dragon dragged over the nearly 200-meter-long carcass of the Blue Kun, with four heads holding it.
The two free black heads glanced at the Silver Colossal Dragon and roared in excitement.
Ghidorah, invincible, unstoppable! Took down a level 9 colossal beast!
Figuring kind words cost nothing, the Thunder Emperor praised it as well.
You were excellent this time too, Ghidorah.
Looking quite displeased, the Silver Colossal Dragon scoffed.
Batian had already severely injured that level 9 beast! You just took advantage of the situation!
The six-headed serpent paid no attention to it, though. Instead, four of its heads lifted the Blue Kun’s corpse into the air, while the other two roared proudly.
Ghidorah, unstoppable, invincible!
Taking down a fellow king-level colossal beast had the six-headed serpent exhilarated. Any extra circumstances were irrelevant; it was the one that landed the final blow, and that was all that mattered.
However, its victory wasn't without a cost. Even though the Thunder Emperor had severely wounded the Blue Kun, it still managed to blast off three of the serpent’s heads in its final moments. It would take at least three days for them to fully recover.
With the battle concluded, it was time to distribute the spoils.
The Thunder Emperor handed the colossal serpent's tail to the Blue Giant Crab and the female orca.
Once they had consumed roughly one-third of the late-stage level 9 colossal beast’s flesh, they would require some time to digest it. Fortunately, they would likely reach the peak of level 7 and enter a state of slumber anyway.
As for the king-level Blue Kun, the majority of its flesh was divided between the Single-Horned Kun and the Silver Colossal Dragon.
Although the Silver Colossal Dragon was also a king-level creature, it would still greatly benefit from the flesh of a king-level level 9 colossal beast.
For the Single-Horned Kun, this was especially valuable. Sharing the same bloodline as the Blue Kun, its flesh would accelerate the Single-Horned Kun's growth, purify its bloodline, and significantly enhance its strength.
The three little orcas and the female orca also received a portion of the Blue Kun's flesh.
Once they had digested it, they would become considerably stronger.
This was the advantage of following a powerful leader. They got to consume the flesh of king-level colossal beasts that were one or two major realms above them, accelerating their growth far beyond what they had ever experienced before.
Ghidorah received the flesh of two late-stage level 8 colossal beasts to help it recover from its injuries.
Finally, the Thunder Emperor kept the remaining three beginning-stage and middle-stage level 8 colossal beasts and some level 7 colossal beast flesh for itself. At first glance, it seemed like it had taken the smallest share of the spoils.
This distribution made the Single-Horned Kun and a few other colossal beasts hesitate. Even the Silver Colossal Dragon growled in protest, feeling as if the Thunder Emperor was being too selfless.
Batian, as per our rules, whoever contributes the most should get the biggest portion of the spoils. You should have all of this level 9 transcendent creature's flesh.
The Single-Horned Kun nodded in agreement.
Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Yes, Thunder Fiery, you should take it. You’ll grow faster if you eat it.
The Thunder Emperor let out a low growl.
We will stick to my distribution plan. That level 9 flesh will do nothing but energize me. It will have more substantial effects on you.
Consuming it will accelerate your growth and purify your bloodline. Without it, you’ll fall behind and fail to keep up with me.
As companions whom I have grown with all this time, I want you all by my side when I step into the infinite worlds. I want us to conquer the realms together.
Surprised that it had thought so far ahead, the colossal beasts couldn’t help but feel deeply moved. Overwhelmed with emotion, the Blue Giant Crab even prostrated itself on the ground.
Equally excited, the Single-Horned Kun clapped its fins together.
Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! We’ll fight, eat, and take everything together!
The six-headed serpent was so touched that it thrashed about wildly, its six heads letting out a chaotic roar.
Roar! Roar! Roar! Charge in and destroy everything together! Invincible!
Yet, these emotionally charged colossal beasts were unaware that the Thunder Emperor's true goal was the Life Crystals. It required more attribute points to enhance its abilities.
