Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast

Chapter 197: Evolution of Ancient Beasts, Level 9 Colossal Beast (I)

Boom!

Amid the raging sea, a colossal beast, over fifty meters in length, surged forward. Its monstrous and imposing figure exuded a sense of intimidation and oppression.

A golden beam of light shot out from its direction, which instantaneously pierced through the water, appearing beside the Thunder Fiery Colossal Beast on its left side.

Wherever the beam passed, the sea erupted instantly, rapidly forming spiraling white air waves.

Before the Thunder Beast could react, the Single-horned Orca appeared beside it, sporting its black and white whale-shaped shield atop its head as it intercepted the destructive breath.

Boom!

The golden breath crashed against the black and white shield, erupting into rings of golden light and upheaving the water within hundreds of meters into chaos. The twisted force of the breath's impact pushed the orca continuously backward, its shield wavering fiercely.

The Thunder Beast erupted with endless flames of golden-red hue, instantly vaporizing the surrounding seawater and stirring up a tsunami on the ocean floor.

Boom!

With a swift turn, the Thunder Beast's claw descended, causing the water to explode like depth charges. The nearly sixty-meter, peak level 7 mutated colossal beast was sent flying with just one swipe.

Under the devastating force of the Thunder Beast’s hundredfold strength explosion, the external energy of the mutated beast collapsed, and its body burst open as it emitted screams of agony.

Biu!

Burning with flames and crackling with electric arcs, a black sword-like tail shot out at supersonic speed, piercing through the head of a beginning stage level 7 colossal beast that had pounced from behind to instantly kill it.

Boom!

The Thunder Beast swung its left claw fiercely, ablaze with scorching flames as it clashed with a massive tentacle that was approaching from behind. An explosive wave of destruction erupted, and under the rolling tsunami, the tentacle was torn apart with a single swipe.

In just an instant, the Thunder Beast had repelled two mutated beasts at the peak and late stage of level 7, and killed one at the beginning stage of level 7.

The creatures daring to snatch the ancient essence were formidable; each emitted energy fluctuations and auras far surpassing their own level, equal to the Orca’s.

However, they were facing the king of the mutated beasts.

Just as the Thunder Beast sent those colossal beasts flying, the silent red light that had persisted for so long collapsed.

Instantly, the massive skeleton disintegrated at a speed visible to the naked eye, crumbling into gravel-like dust and leaving only those two palm-sized drops of blood floating in the sea. The blood didn’t merge with the water, instead floating in it like blood-colored pearls and emitting a faint red glow.

With those two drops of blood now free, an indescribable ancient aura burst forth, instantly covering an area of dozens of kilometers.

The entire sea erupted in an instant, and the surrounding level 7 creatures went berserk.

Roar!

The Thunder Beast opened its mouth wide, swallowing one drop of ancient blood in one gulp, then closed its right claws around the other, ignoring the incoming attacks.

Boom!

Dozens of meters of thick tentacles slammed into the Thunder Beast’s body and wrapped around it, and their owner flung it with immense force.

With a roar, the Thunder Beast rushed through the violent currents to the Orca, which had been blown away by the golden breath. Roar! Open your mouth.

Without hesitation, the Orca opened its ferocious mouth, and the Thunder Beast just as quickly waved its right claw, tossing half of the ancient blood into its mouth.

The Thunder Beast hadn’t been intending on taking all of the blood for itself; however, as soon as it had grasped the remaining drop in its claw, most of the blood had seeped through the scales into its body in an instant.

Boom!

Suddenly, in the distance, an overwhelming aura erupted. Under its suffocating power was a sense of dread, as if the entire sea were being overturned.

A level 9 colossal beast!

The Thunder Beast's expression turned serious, roaring. Roar! Let's go, run fast.

Behind the Thunder Beast, the sea exploded, the massive force instantly forming a huge black void.

The Thunder Beast’s Agility ability erupted, and it vanished in an instant.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The remaining level 7 beasts, as well as the titanic colossal beast in the distance, instantly became enraged, their massive bodies madly chasing in the direction in which the Thunder Beast had fled.

The ancient blood aura emanating from the Thunder Beast was very pronounced, masking the aura on the Orca. As a result, the Orca was completely ignored as it fled in a different direction.

Even so, the crushing aura of the level 9 colossal beast terrified the Orca to the core. It hadn't expected that those two drops of blood could attract such a fearsome creature.

Boom!

Thousands of meters above, the sea surface exploded, and the Thunder Beast leaped hundreds of meters into the air. Just as it had burst out of the water, a huge black shadow appeared beneath it, instantly transforming into a black hole that covered a hundred-meter radius and swallowed everything.

Boom!

Thousands of tons of seawater soared into the sky, and amid the towering waves emerged a massive figure nearly two hundred meters long, exuding a crushing aura.

Although this level 9 colossal beast had appeared last, its speed had been the fastest. After swallowing a level 7 beast along the way, it swiftly arrived behind the Thunder Beast. Its enormous mouth resembled a black hole, devouring everything within reach, as if it wanted to swallow the Thunder Beast in one gulp.

Bang!

The Thunder Beast crashed onto the sea surface hundreds of meters away, causing water to splash in all directions. Just as it fell into the sea, the water behind it exploded once again, and its figure appeared almost two kilometers away in an instant, propelled by its agility ability.

Boom!

The moment the Thunder Beast disappeared, the spot where it had previously been exploded, forming a massive vortex that engulfed everything within a range of three hundred meters.

This was evidently the colossal beast’s innate ability.

Boom!

The colossal beast’s massive body crashed onto the sea surface in the distance, sending towering waves soaring a hundred meters high. However, when it plunged into the sea again, it suddenly realized that it couldn't sense the flame-emitting creature anymore.

It was as if that mutated creature had disappeared into thin air.

Roar!

The level 9 colossal beast let out a roar that shook heaven and earth, its massive body causing monstrous waves to surge as it chased in the direction where it had last sensed the Thunder Beast’s aura.

In the pitch-black ocean depths over two thousand meters below, a piece of rigid wood without any trace of life slowly sank to the bottom.

It was none other than the Thunder Beast, concealing its aura. Unlike land, the ocean was a three dimensional environment, and it quickly became pitch black the further one went down, making it impossible to see very far. As long as one knew how to hide, even powerful colossal beasts could not find a lifeless object.

Big Horn, I've pushed myself to the limit. I hope you won't be caught by that level 9 beast. Otherwise, I can only mourn for you for a moment.

The Thunder Beast lightly thought to itself as it slowly sank toward the seabed. With its explosive speed, the level 9 colossal beast didn’t stand a chance of catching up. The Thunder Beast had only needed to escape a couple of kilometers to conceal its aura and vanish.

The Orca, on the other hand, was far slower, and didn’t possess the same ability. Considering the camaraderie between them, the Thunder Beast had slowed down a bit in the end, releasing the aura of the ancient blood from its body to attract the level 9 colossal beast into chasing it.

It nearly got itself caught in the process. The colossal beast was unexpectedly swift for its size, and its innate abilities were incredibly powerful. It could launch attacks on the Thunder Beast even from almost two kilometers away; now that the Thunder Beast was concealing its aura, the Orca could potentially be in trouble.
