Chapter 332: Emperor-Level Lifeform, Bloodline Evolution, One Person Destroys a Civilization? (I)
While the Silver Colossal Dragon and the Nine-headed Serpent were gathering their strength, the Thunder Fiery Emperor Beast let out a roar.
Boom!
The air exploded, and a tail wrapped in golden flames and thunder pierced through to strike the distracted Tiger Serpent's chest, shattering it into countless blue fragments.
This strike came within mere meters of the Tiger Serpent's true body, and the sharp aura emanating from the tail's tip made it feel a strong sense of danger.
Roar!
The blue Tiger Serpent roared. In the brief pause after the Thunder Beast's attack, its claws descended from the sky with brutal force, capable of shattering everything and casting a shadow over the land.
Boom!
With a single strike, the Thunder Beast’s afterimage was destroyed, and the earth beneath it shattered, causing an explosion within a radius of several hundred meters. Countless burning fragments flew in all directions like meteors.
Roar! Kill!
The silver dragon roared. With a flap of its wings, the long-gathered destructive energy transformed into a black, icy current, freezing and destroying everything in its path.
Simultaneously, six of the Nine-headed Serpent’s heads roared, releasing six black, blue, and red beams that pierced through the sky and covered the blue Tiger Serpent from a distance of over a thousand meters.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Each of the six beams approached the power of a level 9 colossal beast, but the blue Tiger Serpent's body only trembled slightly from their bombardment. Its massive form remained unmoved, its cold gaze fixed on the raging energy shockwaves around it.
As the Nine-headed Serpent released its breath, the innate rune on the Silver Dragon's forehead emitted a dazzling silver light. The black icy current disappeared into the invisible space distortion and reappeared a hundred meters away, behind the Tiger Serpent.
The icy current froze even the space around it into rifts as it swept over the Tiger Serpent, causing its body to stiffen and a layer of white ice crystals to form; everything became frozen, including its innate powers.
However, an indescribable force exploded from the Tiger Serpent's true body.
Roar!
The ice crystals covering the Tiger Serpent's body shattered and exploded as it let out an angry roar. The powerful force even bent the Nine-headed Serpent’s six beams, sending them scattering in all directions.
In the moment it broke free from the freezing force, however, a strong sense of death enveloped the Tiger Serpent's true body.
A dragon claw covered in pure golden light appeared out of nowhere, followed by the Thunder Beast’s massive and ferocious form, with a long trail of light behind it.
The power of the Golden Flames, compressed nearly fifty times and radiating a temperature of two hundred thousand degrees Celsius, combined with the accumulated strength of the Thunder Beast’s entire body, annihilated everything in front of that single claw
As death approached, the Tiger Serpent's consciousness slowed down, and it could only watch the golden dragon claw shatter its innate domain and crush its head.
Roar!
At the moment of death, the Tiger Serpent let out a despairing roar. The few blue spots on its body shone, shooting out blue beams that pierced through everything in their path.
Even the Thunder Beast’s hard scales were shattered by dozens of beams, several large pits forming from the impact.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The beams of destruction ravaged everything. The ground exploded, hills were pierced, and even the barriers of the micro-world in the sky trembled.
The silver dragon in the sky roared in shock and anger as its wings were pierced with dozens of one-meter-diameter holes, though its body remained unscathed.
The Nine-headed Serpent, on the other hand, was able to escape this catastrophe by simply laying on the ice.
***
On the island where lava flowed, the Tiger Serpent's body lay quietly, gushing blue blood from its shattered wounds and the stump that was once its head. In just a blink of an eye, a small blue lake formed around it.
In the distance, the Silver Dragon and Ghidorah were gasping for breath.
The Single-horned Kun, which had broken through the ice, and the Deep Sea Dragon Turtle, which had weakly crawled up from underground, both sighed in relief upon seeing the Tiger Serpent's corpse.
That beast had been too powerful; this battle had nearly blown up half of the micro-world. The island, several kilometers in diameter, had collapsed by half. The Tiger Serpent had even been able to block the Thunder Beast’s breath weapon, which was normally capable of destroying everything.
Under such terrifying power, the previously confident Kun and Dragon Turtle had nearly been blown apart in a single strike, and still felt a lingering fear. Even the Silver Dragon and Ghidorah had struggled to contend with the colossal beast.
If it hadn't been for the Thunder Beast standing firm and battling the colossal beast head-on, even suppressing it, the Dragon Palace would have likely been destroyed today.
The Thunder Beast was too strong.
Thinking of this, the other beasts couldn't help but look into the distance.
There stood the black and red colossal beast, its shattered scales visibly regenerating at a rapid pace as it exuded a tyrannical aura.
Roar! Batian, you are so strong! The Silver Dragon couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Fighting a mid-level 9 colossal beast with such overwhelming combat power at the beginning stage of level 8 was something not even its mother could have done; otherwise, she would have bragged about it long ago.
This had already surpassed the known capabilities of transcendent colossal beasts.
Humans could fight above their level when they were low-level, but as they reached higher stages, even crossing a minor realm became extremely difficult.
This was similar for colossal beasts. All beasts beyond level 7 possessed king-level bloodlines. Some had such weak bloodlines that they didn’t display at all, let alone form powerful innate abilities, yet even these beasts were still immensely strong.
A level 9 colossal beast, with its bloodline strength refined to the point where most of its form has reverted to its ancestral state, possessed incredibly powerful bloodline abilities and dominating combat power.
At this stage, every one of them was a genius, a super genius. Even if one was strong, their opponent was no weaker. This was why it became so difficult to fight above one's level at higher stages.
This Tiger Serpent, whether it was due to its innate abilities, its formidable physique, or its resilient and heavy blue domain, was a complete powerhouse compared to the Silver Dragon and its companions.
The Thunder Beast growled from afar. Roar! Is everyone alright? If there's nothing serious, let's head over there and see what this guy was so desperately protecting.
Squeak, squeak! My back is broken; I need to lie down for a while.
Roar! My head hurts; let me rest.
The Serpent’s eight still-bleeding heads swayed. Roar! Roar! Roar! I fear nothing. No pain, let's go check it out.
Next to Ghidorah's eight heads, the neck belonging to the exploded head had already begun to regenerate flesh. At this rate, it would regrow a new head in about a day.
As a level 8 colossal beast, Ghidorah had an incredibly strong lifeforce. As long as its life essence wasn't damaged, it could recover from any injury given enough time. On top of that, multi-headed creatures like Ghidorah typically had regeneration or limb regrowth abilities.
Whoosh!
The Silver Dragon flapped its slightly damaged wings, surrounded by a green whirlwind, and flew over the shattered reefs, landing lightly beside the Thunder Beast before raising its head proudly. Roar! Such an ordinary battle could never harm the great Saixitia.
Roar! In that case, Big Horn and Baxia, you two stay here to recover. We will go ahead and take a look.
Squeak, squeak! Wait for me; my injuries are much better now, not painful anymore!
Roar! My head isn't dizzy!
Seeing they were about to be left behind, the Kun and the Dragon Turtle began to panic.
Under the Thunder Beast’s heavy steps, rocks within a radius of over ten meters would shatter and crack, leaving deep footprints and causing the ground to tremble.
Following behind it were the slithering Serpent, the crawling Dragon Turtle, and the Silver Dragon flying with outstretched wings, all exuding a majestic aura.
The Kun, unfortunately, could only swim in the water at the edge of the reef island.
Soon, the five colossal beasts reached the end of this micro-world, where the reef island fractured. The lava roiled below, forming a lake several kilometers wide.
At the end was a volcano, over a hundred meters high, that intermittently spewed hot lava and billowed black smoke and toxic gas, forming a stark contrast with the side the colossal beasts were on.
In the lava lake, there floated what seemed to be an egg about half a meter in size and covered in purple dragon scales, with strands of solidified purple light bands surrounding it.
As the four colossal beasts approached within several hundred meters of the purple dragon egg...
Boom!
A fierce aura erupted from the Thunder Beast, ancient and desolate, with its draconic bloodline stirred by an invisible power of a similar nature.
Under this divine power, the Dragon Turtle, who also possessed a draconic bloodline, collapsed with a thud.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The Silver Dragon unleashed its draconic power, forcibly resisting the pressure emanating from the depths of its bloodline, its ferocious mouth letting out an enraged roar. It was the great Saixitia; how could it kneel to an egg? Impossible.
By contrast, the Serpent, which lacked a draconic bloodline, was less affected, only feeling a powerful suppression from a higher life form. The Single-horned Kun, anxiously flapping its fins in the water but unable to cross over, was completely unaffected.
Looking at the small egg, the Thunder Beast's eyes showed a trace of shock as it growled. Roar! This is the egg of an emperor-level mythical creature.
Indeed, the life level contained within this dragon egg was emperor-level. Only an aura emitted by a life form of that level could exert even a slight suppression on it now.
Of course, it was still just a slight suppression in terms of aura; in terms of strength, the Thunder Beast was confident it could crush this egg with a single claw.
What would happen if it ate this egg, though? Could it evolve?
As the Thunder Beast contemplated this, the Dragon Turtle lying on the ground suddenly erupted with a powerful aura, sending waves of solidified energy sweeping hundreds of meters.
Roar! Baxia, fearless and invincible, stand up...
With a series of angry roars, the Dragon Turtle slowly stood up, its limbs trembling.
Roar! Not bad, being able to stand up to that bloodline suppression. That's fitting for a level 8 beast. The Thunder Beast was very pleased with Baxia's performance.
As it approached emperor-level, the Thunder Beast increasingly understood the terror of emperor-level lifeforms. It was a comprehensive surpassing in power, innate abilities, and life level; such life forms were in an entirely different class from those below them.
The Silver Dragon's eyes widened in shock as it growled. Roar! Baxia, this is an offspring from a being beyond the mythical level.
Roar! I guessed as much. The Thunder Beast nodded.
The fact that the pressure from just the egg's aura was this overwhelming—no ordinary mythical-level creature's offspring could achieve that.
Moreover, most ordinary mythical-level creatures' bloodlines were merely lord-level. The Silver Dragon, possessing both a dragon lineage and a king-level bloodline, was an exception.
However, there was actually a problem with this egg. The Thunder Beast keenly sensed that its life aura was very weak and continuously fading.
The surrounding purple substances were formed from the leaking aura, and emitted an irresistible urge for transcendent creatures to devour them.
Roar! That must be the good stuff Big Horn mentioned.
Saying this, the Thunder Beast extended its giant claw, releasing a powerful suction that drew up a tenth of the purple substances. It examined the basin-sized patch of substance in its claw and then consumed it in one gulp.
This small amount was negligible for the Thunder Beast, not even enough to wet its throat.
