Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 489: Ancient Creature, Blade Master Thunder Fiery (I)

In the pitch-black night, a massive moon, as large as a blazing sun, slowly rose into the sky.

The mythical world was vast and boundless, but as that enormous moon ascended, time and space seemed to warp.

Except for places concealed by clouds or towering trees, the moon was visible everywhere across the mythical world. Its silver light pierced through layers of clouds, bringing a faint glow to the darkened earth.

At the center of a land shrouded in dark clouds, a black mountain range, stretching for thousands of kilometers, undulated. At the far end of the range stood a towering volcano, more than five thousand meters high.

Above the volcano’s midsection, black clouds formed from toxic volcanic fumes swirled around. Molten lava churned within the massive crater, and the fiery red glow it emitted illuminated the sky.

Roar!

From within the volcanic crater, a colossal beast, nearly three hundred meters long and resembling a dragon but wingless, with three massive snake-like heads, burst into the sky.

Surrounded by blue-green flames, it created a domain that extended for eight hundred meters. The invisible pressure it radiated at late-stage level 9 reverberated through the heavens, causing the very atmosphere to tremble.

Such a powerful presence instantly drew the attention of countless aliens below.

At the foot of the volcano, on the dry and barren earth, a city of tightly packed gray stone buildings stretched for more than ten kilometers, forming a massive, rudimentary settlement.

This city could house millions of aliens, but due to its harsh environment, the level of civilization was quite low.

However, under the favor of Kartos, most of these aliens, except for the young ones, possessed physiques comparable to level 4 cultivators and had been granted various abilities.

The stronger ones even reached levels 5, 6, or even 7, forming an awe-inspiring gathering.

At this moment, however, only a few thousand inhabitants remained in the city. As the Three-Headed Dragon roared into the sky, many aliens instinctively looked up, their faces showing reverence and fanaticism.

“It’s the emissary Lord Tulhuur.”

“It seems the emissary is heading southeast. Something must have happened at the border.”

“Perhaps it’s those damn colossal beasts again. They’ve been constantly hindering us from spreading the glory of our god and turning the land into a fiery domain.”

Boom!

A massive claw, burning with purple flames, landed at the edge of the volcanic crater. In an instant, rocks collapsed, the air exploded, and countless fragments melted into rivers of lava flowing down the mountainside.

The colossal beast revealed only half of its body, but it still stood several hundred meters tall. Purple flames engulfed its form, and in an instant, a divine pressure far above all living beings exploded outward.

Boom!

Under the terrifying pressure, the dark clouds spread, forming rings of cloud waves that shot out for more than ten kilometers. In the blink of an eye, all the level 5 aliens in the city knelt, their expressions fervent.

“We greet our god.”

However, Kartos paid no attention to its worshippers below. Its gaze turned towards the direction where the Three-Headed Dragon had flown, awaiting the situation to unfold.

It suspected that it was highly likely that the mythical creature behind the Dragon Palace force from that undeveloped world had arrived, though it was just a guess.

So it sent the Three-Headed Dragon to investigate.

If it truly was that mythical colossal beast that had been summoned, then the loss of the Three-Headed Dragon would be acceptable. Kartos had already left a mark on the beast, allowing it to observe the creature’s true form when the time came.

Back when a fragment of its will descended into the undeveloped world, taking the form of a projection through the scale of law, it had been destroyed in one blow by the other’s law projection.

It was clear that the opponent’s strength surpassed its own.

However, it still had no concrete idea whether the Silver Colossal Dragon’s realm was at the late stage of the mythical level, its peak, or even beyond. Thus, it didn’t dare act recklessly.

In the center of the Hellish Divine Domain, Kartos was at his strongest. As long as no titan-level creatures were summoned, he feared no other mythical colossal beasts.

Even if the opposing mythical beast was stronger, Kartos could wear it down in a prolonged battle.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Surrounded by its domain, the Three-Headed Dragon flew at twice the speed of sound, soaring ten thousand meters above the ground. Sonic booms echoed as the mountains and valleys below rapidly receded.

As a land-based creature, the Three-Headed Dragon wasn’t skilled at flying, and reaching twice the speed of sound was already its maximum output.

The Black Abyss King’s orders were not to be disobeyed, for if the cruel mythical colossal beast became enraged, it might very well devour the Three-Headed Dragon on the spot.

This had happened before, so no colossal beast ever dared linger near the Black Abyss King.

Though staying in the energy infused with law would accelerate their power growth and increase their chances of stepping into the quasi-mythical level, the risk was too great.

Boom! The Three-Headed Dragon suddenly descended, emerging from the black clouds, and the apocalyptic landscape below came into full view.

The undulating mountains were cracked and broken, barren without a trace of green vegetation or life. Rivers of molten lava flowed through the rifts, like the earth’s blood vessels.

As the ground rapidly receded beneath it, some town structures could occasionally be seen.

However, with the aliens who had been driving the infernal lava now gone, these towns were abandoned.

Before long, the Three-Headed Dragon had flown over two thousand kilometers, and scattered figures of aliens began to appear below.

These aliens lived around altars, hunting the mutated creatures in the surrounding area, looting Life Crystals and offering flesh and blood as sacrifices to transform into infernal flames.

As the infernal flames merged into the land, turning it into infernal magma that corroded the surroundings, plants ignited, the earth cracked, and countless mutated beasts either fled or attacked.

After crossing more than four thousand kilometers, vegetation and rivers became more frequent. By the time it reached five thousand kilometers, the alien presence had become sparse.

In just over two hours, the Three-Headed Dragon, having flown over five thousand kilometers, circled in the air and quickly located the destroyed town.

This was at the edge of the Hellish Divine Domain, where only a small river of infernal lava flowed. At the end of the lava river was the town, now eroded by ten kilometers of magma.

From high above, this area looked like a black scar on the land.
