Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 448: Leaving the Others in the Dust, Shattering A King (II)
Chapter 448: Leaving the Others in the Dust, Shattering A King (II)
An Fuqing’s projection suddenly moved, flashing forward several times until she appeared over eight hundred meters away.
At the same time, the projections of Ji Wuji, Bardas, and others also began to shift.
The sky was shrouded in dark clouds, the earth cracked open, and lava flowed across the apocalyptic world. Chen Chu stood on a hillside, sensing the disappearing origin within his body.
These powers were quite special. Once they entered his body, they fused with his soul.
Due to cultivating the Taixu Nether Light Scripture, he could vaguely sense the eight origins lurking deep within his soul. However, the level of these origin powers was too high, and he couldn't access them for now.
More importantly, these origins seemed to involve the soul, which was different from the ancient aura that had merged deep within him when obtained by the Thunder Fiery Dragon Emperor.
"A soul transformation and a physical reversion to an ancient state?" Chen Chu mused thoughtfully.
When he first heard that the world’s origins were the special powers humans needed to break through to the king level, and that only mythical worlds could condense them, Chen Chu had assumed that origins were the same as ancient auras.
After all, both human experts and colossal beasts needed these special powers to evolve. He hadn’t expected them to be so different.
Regardless, obtaining eight origins right at the start was a good sign, and now it was time to fight his way through everything.
With that thought, Chen Chu looked ahead.
In the distance stood a three-meter-tall middle-aged man, holding a five-meter-long saber and dressed in a gray training uniform. He stood atop the searing lava, exuding an invisible yet heavy aura.
This was the projection of a king, and his cultivation level, like Chen Chu’s, was at the middle stage of the Seventh Heavenly Realm.
Between the two of them floated three one-meter-tall red runes, with tens of thousands of rune sequence chains slowly rotating within them, as if explaining some profound truth of the world to Chen Chu.
"So, my inheritance trial is combat-based?" Chen Chu murmured as his gaze fell upon the three sealing runes.
According to Xie Chen, he had to contemplate these runes within half an hour, or else they would merge with the king’s projection, each one doubling his strength.
After glancing at them for a moment, Chen Chu shook his head with a sigh. "As expected, contemplating things like this is not my forte. I might as well fight my way through."
When the three runes were magnified, they revealed their mysteries completely to Chen Chu. With his innate understanding of runes, he was confident he could comprehend them within half a day. The problem was that the trial only allowed for half an hour.
He briefly considered entering an epiphany state to quickly comprehend them, only to dismiss the thought. These three runes were only related to a basic flame ability. It wasn’t worth burning his attribute points right now—those were better saved for the third stage.
Boom!
A red light flashed on Chen Chu’s forehead, and an endless sea of blood exploded outward, covering a radius of 150 meters. An apocalyptic hell was summoned in an instant.
At the same time, Chen Chu’s world-shaking will surged skyward, transforming into a towering twenty-meter-tall blood-red Demon God Phantom, emanating an aura of ferocity and destruction.
As the Demon God Phantom appeared, the entire apocalyptic hell erupted, with the blood sea roaring, and an invisible force belonging to hell was summoned.
That wasn’t all. With a mere thought from Chen Chu, a thirty-meter-tall battle phantom clad in black and red scaled armor appeared behind him. It had three faces, six arms, and spinning wheels of light.
As soon as it materialized, the Demon God Phantom, condensed from battle will, lunged at it.
Boom!
In an instant, the earth trembled, and a roar filled with destructive intent echoed through the void. As the blood-red light flashed, the battle phantom underwent a transformation.
The golden flames and blue lightning surrounding the battle phantom turned blood-red, and the four wheels spinning behind its head were dyed crimson as well.
In addition, the black and red scale armor turned completely blood-red, with sharp spikes growing from its shoulders, arm joints, and knee joints, giving it a fearsome appearance.
The previously blurred face on the left side now became clearer, still resembling Chen Chu, but covered in red scales. Its eyes burned with black flames, filled with coldness and destruction.
The Battle Demon God.
Faced with a king’s projection of the same realm, which was about to triple in strength, Chen Chu unleashed his peak battle power.
Boom!
Triggered by Chen Chu’s explosive burst of power, the middle-aged man in the distance suddenly opened his eyes. A terrifying saber will surged from his body, soaring into the sky, as if it could burn the heavens and boil the seas.
At the same time, the three runes emitted a red glow and turned into streaks of light, merging into the man’s body.
In an instant, the aura surrounding the man surged threefold. Fire exploded from him, and the surface of the lava river beneath him erupted with fiery columns shooting into the sky.
"Kill!" The man transformed into a streak of red light, his advanced saber will igniting the flames of heaven and earth and gathering the power of magma to form ten flaming sabers, each hundreds of meters long.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The fiery sabers swept through the air, accompanied by waves of energy, and the sharp, invisible saber light tore apart the void as they descended upon Chen Chu, creating a scene of earth-shattering destruction.
This was the power of a king’s projection, even with all of his cultivation suppressed at the middle stage of the Seventh Heavenly Realm.

Just as the fiery sabers were about to land, Chen Chu let out a long roar, and a 150-meter-long purple-red halberd soared into the sky.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The halberd, enhanced by the power of hell, cut through everything in its path, instantly shattering all of the fiery sabers. Charging forward, it appeared directly before the man.
Boom!
As the halberd and saber clashed, the purple-red halberd exploded like a dazzling sun in the sky, sending out wave after wave of radiant energy.
The terrifying explosion shook the entire world, causing the earth to collapse under the invisible shockwaves. Lava and shattered rocks were hurled into the air, annihilating everything in their path.
The saber-wielding man was also shattered in this explosion, which contained both the power of hell and true dragon power, obliterating him in an instant.
Amid the violent destructive shockwaves, Chen Chu stood firmly, his gaze unsurprised and indifferent as he held his halberd.
He had killed king-level projections and avatars before. Each one far exceeded their cultivation level in strength, but none of them stood a chance before his invincible might.
Meanwhile, in the outside world, the void above Chen Chu trembled, and two streaks of white-glowing origin power slowly descended, merging into his body.
His figure appeared 2,500 meters away on the path to divinity.
"Look! Ah Chu moved again! He’s obtained two more origins!" Xia Youhui excitedly shouted, and the others also noticed the change in Chen Chu.
"Ten origins! He’s obtained ten origins!"
"This is insane. The path to divinity has just begun, and he’s already acquired ten origins. That’s enough to break through to the king level at the peak of the Ninth Heavenly Realm."
On the mountain peak, over seven hundred geniuses from various nations, who weren’t qualified to enter, all gazed at him with envy.
Watching Chen Chu’s distant silhouette, Lin Xue’s eyes flickered. "This guy’s future achievements will probably surpass everyone’s expectations."
Lin Yu slowly nodded in agreement.
