Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 624: Mutual Praise and Clearing the Field

Meanwhile, over ten kilometers away, True Immortal Jingtai and another human king were engaged in a quiet conversation.

With Chen Chu's arrival, what was originally an exploration event involving only the Alliance of Gods' younger-generation geniuses had suddenly taken on a far more serious tone.

***

Whoosh!

A sonic boom echoed across the sky as the dark-red king-level fighter jet approached rapidly. Many aliens and Demon Cult Alliance members watching from below had a sudden change in expression.

Saix, the Demon God Cult's Holy Son, frowned. "What’s going on? A human king has flown a fighter jet deep into the Alliance of Gods’ territory?"

On a mountain peak thousands of meters away, an alien youth with a silver third eye narrowed his eyes. "Strange. According to the agreement, neither human kings nor demon kings of the Purgatory Clan are allowed to enter the Alliance of Gods."

Behind him, an alien in dark golden armor with massive wings commented, "It must have something to do with the battle earlier."

"Wait... he’s not a human king!"

Energy shockwaves spread as the fighter jet gradually landed. The aliens in the area warily watched the cabin door open. A young man with black, shoulder-length hair stepped out.

He was enveloped in an unmistakable late-stage Ninth Heavenly Realm aura, surprising the onlookers.

"He’s not a human king?"

Chen Chu placed his hand on the fighter jet, and with a ripple of silver spatial energy, the massive and menacing craft slowly sank into his subspace, vanishing from sight.

"Chen Chu already has his own king-level fighter jet? Looks like Xia Zuo wasn't lying after all!" Ji Wuji exclaimed.

Now, they no longer doubted Xia Zuo.

In the Human Federation, the emblem of a dragon entwined with crossed swords on king-level fighter jets symbolized the status of a king.

Chen Chu disappeared, instantly crossed several hundred meters, and reappeared before the group. Turning to An Fuqing, he praised, "It’s only been a short while, yet you've already broken through to the Eighth Heavenly Realm. Impressive."

The girl smiled gently. "Sure, but I’m still a bit behind you."

The two exchanged compliments, smiling as if reliving a familiar routine.

Chen Shuang stood in the distance with arms crossed, watching the two young martial artists with a look of amazement. "Nantian Martial Arts High School has produced quite a number of freaks in recent years."

Hong Zhen nodded slightly. "Indeed. Just a few years ago, there was that guy who proclaimed himself the Overlord, and now we’ve got two even more monstrous prodigies."

After greeting An Fuqing, Chen Chu stepped forward and smiled at Ji Wuji and Xia Zuo. "Seniors, long time no see."

Xia Zuo returned the smile. "With you here, our harvest from this ruin exploration should be quite promising. Come, let me introduce you.

"This is Hong Zhen, twenty-seven years old, late-stage Ninth Heavenly Realm. His Heaven-Suppressing Fist Will has already touched upon the laws, and he is astoundingly powerful in combat."

Chen Chu nodded politely. "Nice to meet you."

Hong Zhen, who had short, steel-like hair, smiled and nodded in acknowledgment.

Xia Zuo continued, "This is Chen Shuang, a middle-stage Ninth Heavenly Realm Innate Awakener from the Secret Martial Arts Academy of the Northern Battlefield.

"These two are Amos and Amoster, both at the beginning stage of the Ninth Heavenly Realm, just like me. They are from North Lin..."

Through Xia Zuo’s brief introductions, Chen Chu quickly formed an impression of the others. To put it simply, they were all extraordinary geniuses—true prodigies.

However, at present, Chen Chu, An Fuqing, and the others were all considered inheritors of humanity's five Divine and Immortal Regions.

After the introductions, Xia Zuo pointed to a projected structure high above, spanning several kilometers in range.

"That is the entrance to the inner world of the ruin, but it exists in another dimension and cannot be approached at the moment. It remains sealed.

"It is said that numerous resources and inheritances were left behind by an ancient alien civilization in there, which is why the entire younger generation of the Alliance of Gods has gathered here.

"To enter the ruin, we need special tokens, which appear randomly. Whoever snatches them gets them.

"Excluding Li Hao, who has already entered, five tokens have appeared so far—all taken by alien experts.

"The aliens are maintaining a neutral stance, but our greatest opponents are the elites of the Shadow Cult, Giant Cult, Eternal Cult, and the Demon God Cult.

"In recent years, the conflicts between humanity's Divine Region and the Demon Cult Alliance, which includes the now-destroyed Blood Cult, have intensified within the Alliance of Gods.

"In the past few token struggles, the Demon Cult Alliance cultists opted to lose the tokens themselves rather than let us have them. That’s why Hong Zhen and the others haven’t secured any yet.

"With Hong Zhen and Chen Shuang’s strength, they could have easily taken at least two tokens if not for their interference."

Xia Zuo pointed past the cliffs. In the area, Chen Chu found four major forces scattered in various positions, watching them coldly.

Chen Chu narrowed his eyes slightly. "It seems they don’t intend to let us enter the ruin. In that case, we need to clear the premise in advance."

Hong Zhen and the others were slightly taken aback.

"Clear the premise?"

Chen Chu nodded. "That’s right."

His gaze turned cold as he looked toward the forces of the Demon God Cult and the Giant Cult.

Initially, Chen Chu’s goal here was simply to gather some Soul Crystals and see if he could acquire resources from the ruins.

However, before his departure, Gabriel had instructed him to act more dominantly and stir things up as much as possible.

With the Abyssal Battlefield isolated, humanity’s main forces, along with those of the Purgatory Clan, had shifted to the Sky Battlefield. As a result, the direct pressure had somewhat eased.

Now was the time to deal with the threats in the rear—namely, the Alliance of Gods.

Even if they couldn’t sway the entire Alliance of Gods to humanity’s side, they had to find a way to root out the Demon God Cult, especially the cultists who had betrayed humanity.

Sensing the sharp murderous aura emanating from Chen Chu, Hong Zhen’s eyes gradually lit up with excitement. "With Chen Chu here, clearing the field could actually be possible."

Before Chen Chu's arrival, the human side had two Eighth Heavenly Realm experts and five Ninth Heavenly Realm experts. Though strong, they were not formidable enough to sweep through everything.

The Demon Cult Alliance posed a significant challenge. Aside from Saix, who was nearly as strong as a demon king, they also had four Eighth Heavenly Realm demonized alien experts.

The Giant Cult had a middle-stage Ninth Heavenly Realm Divine Child and three Eighth Heavenly Realm bishops, while the Shadow Cult fielded two beginning-stage and one middle-stage Ninth Heavenly Realm assassins.

Additionally, the Eternal Cult brought the twin Divine Children, both at the middle-stage Ninth Heavenly Realm.

Overall, the two sides were evenly matched.

Hence, despite the cultists' repeated provocations, Hong Zhen and the others could do little in response. Any attempt to eliminate a few enemies to establish dominance had been thwarted.

But with Chen Chu, who had slain several demon kings, on their side...
