Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 357: Mythical Titan Level, Serpents Breakthrough (I)
Chapter 357: Mythical Titan Level, Serpent's Breakthrough (I)
"It really is Thunder Fiery, and it’s engaging in battle with Black Tortoise."
The faces of many at the surveillance base turned grave as they viewed the high-definition photos from the satellite; a beam piercing through the heavens, an explosion more destructive than a nuclear blast, and the towering, menacing black-and-red colossal beast at the end of it all.
There were also vague silhouettes of colossal beasts emerging on the sea surface below, along with a silver dragon soaring through the sky.
The duty officer stared at the images on the big screen with a heavy heart. "Thunder Fiery is the most powerful mutated creature I have seen in years, perhaps the most powerful one the Federation has discovered.
"In just three to four months, it has grown from level 7 to nearly level 9. It has even demonstrated the ability to kill multiple level 9 colossal beasts while still at level 8. Its potential is truly frightening.
"Fortunately, this mutated beast has shown no hostility toward humans and has been moving toward the open sea, even killing the colossal beast we were hesitant to deal with.
"Otherwise, I would have been tempted to request authorization for a coordinated strike with the Celestial Satellite System and top-level experts to eliminate it preemptively."
"Yes, it's too terrifying. I bet that once this beast breaks through to level 9, it might head to the mythical world before it even reaches the peak."
Someone exclaimed, "With this Thunder Fiery creature’s potential, it could grow even more rapidly in the mythical world. It might even have the chance to reach the mythical titan level. Sir, do you think we could send someone to communicate with it, perhaps form an alliance?"
"No point. The passage the mutated creatures use is far from the one we control, or perhaps not even in the same region of the mythical world at all. A king once explored over three million kilometers without finding any traces of the level 9 or mythical-level colossal beasts that had left our world."
Gasp!
The staff immediately drew in a sharp breath; three million kilometers was equivalent to circling the blue planet dozens of times.

After going to war and feasting on the spoils of their battle, the group of colossal beasts returned to the Dragon Palace by dusk.
The setting sun painted the sea orange as the Nine-Headed Serpent, Single-Horned Kun, and Deep Sea Dragon Turtle roiled the waters, crashing through waves.
Trailing behind were three thirty-meter-long "little" orcas, a nearly sixty-meter-long female orca, and an excited Blue Giant Crab waving its massive pincers.
In the sky, a black-and-red colossal beast, 120 meters in length, flew rapidly, leaving a long tail of light in its wake. Its back emitted scorching waves of air, and its thunderbolt-condensed wings shimmered.
The Silver Colossal Dragon, with a wingspan of 200 meters, circled around the Thunder Fiery Dragon Emperor, occasionally letting out loud roars.
Roar! Charge, crush everything ahead! Nothing can stop the great Saixitia. The Dragon Palace is destined to rise under my leadership and dominate the oceans!
Leading the Dragon Palace to destroy a colossal beast "empire" had filled the Silver Dragon with a sense of accomplishment, keeping it excited throughout the journey.
However, in the Thunder Emperor’s eyes, this had merely been a skirmish between two metaphorical villages.

A true battle between empires would involve mythical colossal beasts as leaders, level 9 colossal beasts as generals, and level 7 colossal beasts as soldiers, with numbers exceeding a hundred thousand.
Squeak, squeak, squeak! Saixitia, great, awesome, incredible.
Roar, roar! Saixitia is the best, following you means we eat once every three days.
Squeak, squeak, squeak! You're wrong, it should be four meals every three days. Eating only once in three days would leave us hungry and not showcase Saixitia's greatness.
The Serpent approached, curiously looking at the Kun and Dragon Turtle. Its nine massive heads let out a series of low confused roars. Roar, roar, roar! What do you mean by 'awesome' and 'incredible?’
The Dragon Turtle let out a proud roar. Roar, roar! 'Awesome' and 'incredible' are descriptions. Thunder Fiery said they mean very powerful and strong.
Roar! I see, so 'awesome' and 'incredible' mean that. The Serpent excitedly swayed its nine heads, pleased to have learned two new words.
Gurgle, gurgle! They mean powerful and strong? The Blue Crab behind them seemed lost in thought.
The Thunder Emperor listened to the conversation below with a calm expression, remaining as menacing as ever even as it enjoyed its flight. They were all wild mutated creatures, uncultured and prone to coarse language. It was normal and nothing to be concerned about.
The possibility of their grand movements being detected by human satellites was no longer a concern, either. With it reaching the emperor-level and on the verge of breaking through to level 9, the Blue Planet now posed little danger to it. Even if a human king arrived, it could dive into the deep sea in an instant to escape.
Moreover, given humanity's current cautious strategy, the Thunder Emperor believed that they wouldn't initiate an attack unless it showed hostility toward them first.
Roar! We've arrived.
Using the magnetic field in its mind for navigation, the Silver Dragon excitedly roared as they neared home, folding its wings and descending like a plummeting fighter jet.
Boom!
The sea surface exploded from the Silver Dragon’s sonic boom, sending water hundreds of meters into the air before crashing down like a waterfall.
The Thunder Emperor descended even faster, transforming into a beam of light.
Boom!
The sea erupted again in an even larger explosion, the impact waves causing countless ordinary marine creatures within a kilometer radius to flip their bellies. This was the true definition of "fish bombing."[1]
Diving rapidly, the group of colossal beasts soon submerged over four thousand meters into the pitch-black, silent depths.
Boom!
The Thunder Emperor stepped onto the icy ground, its heavy footsteps shaking the earth as torrents of water cascaded from the gaps in its scales like a waterfall. Due to the Agility field controlling its weight, it didn’t crush the ground.
Standing over sixty meters tall, the menacing colossal beast loomed before the grand hall, its sixty-meter-long tail sword swaying slightly. With it about to enter a breakthrough slumber, it exuded an oppressive aura, distorting the surrounding space.
The other colossal beasts had also gained greatly from this battle. After consuming large quantities of the Black Tortoise's flesh, the Silver Dragon's size had increased to ninety-two meters long, and it was nearly the late stage of level 8.
The energy fluctuations in its body were strong, and most of the nutrients it consumed had yet to be converted; the energy contained in the flesh of a middle-stage level 9 king-level colossal beast was too abundant.
The Dragon Turtle and Kun had similar experiences, their sizes increasing by several meters, and emitting strong energy fluctuations as their bodies prepared to enter a brief growth period.
None of them were like the Thunder Emperor, capable of quickly converting a consumed colossal beast's flesh into biological energy for absorption and growth.
The Serpent, already at the peak of level 8, was especially frantic, letting out chaotic roars. Roar! Roar! Roar! Ao Ba, I, g-going to sleep.
The Thunder Emperor let out a deep roar. Roar! Go ahead. Once you wake up, you'll be a level 9 colossal beast.
Besides the Serpent, the Kun’s three sons, who were nearing the peak of level 6, had also gained greatly from this battle, on the verge of breaking through after consuming the Black Tortoise's flesh.
The female orca, Horn Hime, was already in the late stage of level 7, and should reach the peak after fully digesting the energy.
Even the Blue Crab had made significant gains and was expected to soon reach the late stage of level 7. However, it looked somewhat comical with its two half-grown legs and similarly small claws.
Glancing at all of the beasts, the Thunder Emperor let out a deep roar. Roar! I will also be sleeping for a while. If anything comes up, seek out Saixitia.
The Kun excitedly flapped its fins. Squeak! Go ahead, Thunder Fiery. When you wake up stronger, take us to get more good stuff.
Roar! Baxia is going to cultivate and become very strong. I want to fight ten of them.
The other colossal beasts showed expressions of exasperation. It took you half an hour to defeat a middle-stage level 8 beast, and now you have the nerve to claim you can fight ten?
The Silver Dragon elegantly stepped forward, standing on the steps and looking at the Thunder Emperor as it let out a low roar. Roar! Go ahead, the Dragon Palace is under my watch.
After speaking, however, the Silver Dragon suddenly felt something was off.
Clearly, I am the great dragon king, so why does it seem like Thunder Fiery is in charge, while I’m just a steward?
