Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 415: Unleashing a Massacre, Sweeping Through the Ruins (I)
Chapter 415: Unleashing a Massacre, Sweeping Through the Ruins (I)
Chen Chu closed the attribute panel and spoke slowly. "They're forcing me to unleash a massacre."
Top-level abilities were incredibly powerful, as could be seen from the Thunder Fiery Dragon Emperor’s combat strength.
However, no matter how strong an ability was, it required a solid foundation. When the Sword Armored Beast had reached level 4, it didn't seem overly impressive, despite possessing top-level Strength and Defense.
Similarly, Chen Chu was currently limited by his Seventh Heavenly Realm cultivation. Even with the Double Void Pupils at full power, he could only leap one major realm to kill someone at the beginning stage of the Eighth Realm.
If a middle stage Eighth Realm cultivator were to be on guard, they would likely only suffer injuries.
Normally, the power of the Double Void Pupils was formidable enough to transcend a major realm. If geniuses like Li Hao were to awaken it, it would undoubtedly become their ultimate trump card.
For Chen Chu, though, who was already at the beginning stage of the Seventh Heavenly Realm, with a combat strength comparable to the beginning stage of the Eighth, it felt somewhat redundant, merely providing him with additional combat methods.
However, by activating the Double Pupil’s passive ability, it could now potentially become Chen Chu's third trump card. This special property, derived from the void's principles, added percentage-based damage without increasing his energy consumption or affecting his future growth.
Even if he broke through to the Ninth Heavenly Realm and the Double Pupil’s base power increased tenfold or more, the void-based enhancement would remain just as strong.
Under these circumstances, the priority of exploring the ruins had diminished, replaced by the need to kill.
Ideally, he could slaughter a hundred thousand void monsters, amplifying the Double Pupil’s power by a hundredfold. At that point, he could kill a king with just one glance when he reached the peak of the Ninth Heavenly Realm.
Boom!
Golden flames flickered on Chen Chu's body as his aura exploded. He darted forward, shattering the air as he began a sweeping assault centered around the Oasis.
The deeper he ventured into the ruins, the stronger the void monsters became.
However, the Void Devouring ability didn’t possess any upscaling; regardless of whether he killed a Fifth or an Eighth Heavenly Realm creature, the enhancement gained was still only one point.
Given this, it was more efficient to stack layers by killing smaller enemies, even if the weakest among them were at the Fifth Realm.
Amid the sonic booms, Chen Chu soon charged several kilometers forward. The ground ahead of him had fractured to form a pitch-black rift over two hundred meters wide and stretching for more than ten kilometers, resembling an abyss.
Bang!
The ground collapsed within a few meters, and with the powerful force of recoil, Chen Chu shot out like a bullet, becoming a golden streak as he prepared to cross the rift.
Roar!
Accompanied by a frenzied and brutal roar, a massive shadow from below spread its wings and lunged toward him.
It was a mutated beast resembling a pterosaur, with a wingspan of over thirty meters and a body length of more than twenty meters. Its entire body was covered in rotting black scales and protruding bone spurs.
Boom!
The heavy halberd in Chen Chu's hand flickered with golden light. As it swept across at supersonic speed, the air in front of him was obliterated, forming a long, pitch-black vacuum under the intense pressure.
The level 6 contaminated monster had no time to react before its hideous head, along with half of its body, violently exploded. Black and purple flesh scattered in all directions, and the massive corpse, trailing black smoke, plummeted downward.
However, this monster's interference caused Chen Chu to pause in mid-air. Behind him, his flame wings unfurled, releasing scorching waves of heat as he landed on the other side of the rift.
A large mass of purple-black mist surged up from below the rift. Chen Chu extended one hand, absorbing the void energy contained within it.
On the desolate, apocalyptic landscape, a golden streak of light cut across the earth, its unrestrained aura attracting the attention of numerous void monsters.
Wail!
Three humanoid monsters, each over two meters tall and covered in black-purple scales, emitted piercing howls as they darted out from beneath a dark boulder.
These three Fifth Heavenly Realm monsters had over a meter of black light flickering on their claws, exuding sharp auras as they left dark streaks in the air.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three contaminated monsters barely got within ten meters of the golden light before they were blasted into countless fragments by the sweeping strike of Chen Chu's heavy halberd. Their bodies were utterly annihilated, leaving no trace behind.
The powerful force didn’t diminish as it continued forward, smashing into the ground with a thunderous boom. Dirt and rubble flew in all directions, and the shockwaves formed a crater over twenty meters wide.
Chen Chu halted in his tracks, his expression cold as he observed the condensing purple-black mist ahead.
Soon, under the influence of the continent's principles, the Purple Spirit flowed toward Chen Chu, merging with the purple-black mist swirling around him after passing through his hand.
Over sixty kilometers deeper into the ruins, Li Hao, whose armor had expanded and body had swelled to over three meters tall with the Bull Demon Battle Body, was fiercely battling while holding a steel pillar like a massive club.
His opponents were over twenty humanoid monsters, almost all at the Fifth Heavenly Realm. The one exception was a heavily armored warrior that stood three meters tall and wielded a giant saber, exuding the aura of the beginning-stage Sixth Realm.
Nearby, within a crater over ten meters in diameter, another saber-wielding armored monster had already been smashed and slain.
Suddenly, a streak of golden light appeared. As it noticed the ongoing battle, the streak veered and shot toward them.
"Li Hao, I'm here to help you!"
With the roar of sonic booms, the golden light instantly charged into the group of monsters. Wherever it passed, the ground shattered, and monsters were blown to pieces by the sweeping halberd.
Before Li Hao could react, the monsters that had been giving him such a hard time had vanished.
Amid the scattered monster corpses stood Chen Chu, clad in gold and red armor and halberd in hand as he smiled slightly at the stunned Li Hao. "We're classmates; no need to thank me. See you."
As he spoke, Chen Chu's hand swept through the gathering purple-black murderous aura. Golden light flickered around him, and with a thunderous boom, he shot off into the distance, leaving a sonic boom in his wake.
Li Hao stood there with his pillar, a bit bewildered. "Wait, why would I thank you? I was trying to kill those void monsters to accumulate Purple Spirit!"
In truth, the swarm of monsters had been putting some pressure on Li Hao. If Chen Chu hadn't appeared, he might have ended up seriously injured once again.
Soon, after rushing out several dozen kilometers, Chen Chu encountered Chen Jianyi from Qinchuan Martial Arts High School.
Chen Jianyi, who had comprehended sword will back when he was only at the Third Heavenly Realm, was a monstrous genius. After half a year of absence, his cultivation had advanced to the late stage of the Fifth Heavenly Realm. Sword will flowed around him as he eyed a collapsed stone temple in the distance.
On top of the ruined temple coiled a massive gray-white python, about thirty meters long, with four deformed heads and a row of twisted bone spurs along its back.
This was a mutated monster at the middle stage of level 6, incredibly powerful. However, with his advanced sword will, Chen Jianyi was confident he could slay it.
Just as sword qi surged within him, ready to strike down the monster and explore the temple—
Boom!
From afar, the roar of sonic booms echoed as a streak of golden light rapidly approached. The giant contaminated python, its four heads roaring in rage, was suddenly obliterated by a golden halberd light over twenty meters long.
Boom!
With one strike of the Infinite Purgatory, the temple ruins collapsed, and the roaring contaminated python was blown apart. A massive golden mushroom cloud slowly rose in its place.

The ground trembled from the destructive force, and the shockwaves swept out for hundreds of meters, raising a storm of debris that pelted Chen Jianyi's protective true power.
When the dust settled, Chen Jianyi stared dumbfounded at the giant python's carcass, reduced to little more than one head and its tail, and the massive crater that had destroyed the temple.
Wait, where's my monster?
