Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 423: Dominating Thousands of Miles, Dark Angel (I)
Chapter 423: Dominating Thousands of Miles, Dark Angel (I)
While Chen Chu was unleashing his deadly attacks, the others were also busy. The exploration of the Oasis continued, with deeper incursions into the ruins to eliminate the contaminated monsters and search for more relics.
On the deathly silent ground, thunderbolts roared, creating dazzling flashes of light.
Around Li Daoyi, purple thunder dragons slithered, forming a thunder domain that covered a twenty-meter radius. The blasts obliterated the incoming level 6 void monsters and forced the level 7 monsters to retreat.
These purple thunder dragons, each over ten meters long and as thick as a thigh, would transform into streaks of lightning and rejoin the thunder domain after exploding, reducing energy consumption.
Under the continuous bombardment of the circling thunder dragons, three void monsters, clad in battle armor and standing four meters tall with spears in hand, were quickly blasted into charred fragments.
Glancing at the scattered monster corpses, the lightning around Li Daoyi gradually subsided as he took out the Thunderbolt Compass once more.
This place had once been a prosperous ancient city, with the foundations of buildings neatly stretching for over ten kilometers. Now, only ruins of broken walls and collapsed structures remained.
"I've already penetrated over five hundred kilometers in this direction. Judging by the distant mountain, this should be Junfu City."
"According to that ancient book, the Thunderbolt Monarch's secondary residence was located near Junfu City."
"As a powerhouse beyond the king-level, having touched upon the principles of nature, the power of the thunderbolt laws he invoked during cultivation was terrifying, capable of destroying everything around him."
"However, the residence of such a strong individual would undoubtedly be incredibly durable, with defensive restrictions in place. In such a situation, the excess thunderbolt power would have formed fragments of laws."
"But after all these years, I wonder if the thunderbolt laws that fused with the cultivation room’s structure have dissipated, or if the residence has long since crumbled."
With the compass in hand, Li Daoyi began searching the surrounding barren mountains near the city ruins.
Meanwhile, in another part of the ruins, Gabriella maneuvered her mech across the ground. From her shoulders, beams of energy shot out intermittently, blasting away the void monsters surrounding her.
These late-stage level 6 void monsters were incredibly fast, their explosive speed nearly reaching supersonic levels as they darted around as shadows.
However, the mech’s firepower system, aided by a supercomputer, had terrifying computational power. It locked onto the monsters, and the laser cannon focused fire, relentlessly bombarding them.
As the mech advanced, explosions erupted, sending debris flying. Soon, the void monsters were blown to pieces, leaving behind fiery craters over ten meters wide.
For a mech cultivator, as long as the power reactor had sufficient energy and there was ample ammunition, one person could dominate a small-scale battle.
Roar!
At that moment, the distant ground collapsed, and amidst a surge of black-purple mist, a contaminated mutated beast over forty meters long emerged, letting out a furious roar.
Boom!
The air exploded, forming shockwaves as the mutated beast, resembling a mix between a tiger and a lion, with its body covered in gray scales and bone spikes, crossed several hundred meters in an instant, appearing to the left of the mech.
The moment the beast appeared, the mech wielded a giant sword over forty meters long and several meters wide, with an ax-like front edge. The sword, glowing with flickering light, slashed towards the mutated beast's claws.
Boom!
The mutated beast’s claws were immensely heavy and terrifying, and under the monstrous force that echoed like the roar of a mountain or the crash of a tidal wave, the ground beneath the black-and-white mech shattered within a radius of several dozen meters, causing a powerful shockwave.
At the same time, under the explosive power of the mech, the beast was sent flying by the sword strike, its claw scales shattered, and foul-smelling blood flowing out.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The mech's shoulder-mounted missile pods opened, firing dozens of high-explosive crystal missiles. In the blink of an eye, the missiles engulfed the airborne beast in blazing flames.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The intense explosions illuminated the sky, and at the same time, energy from the mech’s power reactor gathered in its chest.
Boom!
A two-meter-wide, blazing white energy cannon roared, piercing through the mutated beast's head at the center of the explosion. The beam continued, leaving a kilometer-long, ten-meter-wide path of destruction in the ground behind it.
Gazing at the enormous corpse of the contaminated mutated beast lying in the distance, Gabriella, seated in the cockpit, remained exceptionally calm, despite only being at the peak of the Sixth Heavenly Realm.
"All dangerous targets have been eliminated. Activating auxiliary systems—initiating lightwave scan, image scan, and energy fluctuation tracking radar..."
"Beep beep! Special fluctuations detected, target locked."
Under the auxiliary system’s scan, Gabriella’s mech detected faint energy fluctuations beneath the ruins several hundred meters away, causing her to perk up with excitement.
With heavy footsteps, the black-and-white mech smashed through several ten-meter-high walls, arriving at what had once been a luxurious mansion, now reduced to mere remnants.
The source of the faint energy fluctuation was a stone tower, mostly buried in the ground, with only its top corner exposed.
Boom! Under the mech's massive hand, the ten-meter-high stone tower, with a base three meters in diameter, was forcefully pulled out of the earth, revealing some faint runes etched on its surface.
Inside the mech, a smile spread across Gabriella's face. "Finally found something useful, though I’m not sure what this stone tower does."
Meanwhile, in another part of the ruins, a contaminated monster over thirty meters long had its limbs severed, its body pinned to the ground by a dozen black pillars, each over ten meters long and half a meter thick, rendering it immobile.
Nearby, a blond youth wearing glasses held a "small" knife about a meter long, glowing with a red light, as he dissected the monster's body.
Bredos had a fanatical expression on his face. "Such a peculiar lifeform—alive, yet its essence feels dead.”
"And its genetic sequence has collapsed, yet it hasn't turned into a heap of protein sludge. Instead, it’s undergoing some strange form of mutation..."

As the exploration of the ruins continued, many geniuses gradually began to reap rewards, discovering special items and stone tablets engraved with mysterious symbols.
As for Chen Chu, he was still on a killing spree.
Boom!
Amidst the sonic booms, a golden streak of light flashed across the ground. Wherever it passed, shockwaves shattered the earth, sending debris flying.
Watching the figure disappear in the blink of an eye towards the horizon, a ten-meter-tall North Lin cultivator, whose body was covered in scales, stood atop a collapsed city wall, somewhat astonished.
"Damn, it’s that freak Chen Chu. He’s traveling at supersonic speed again. Does his true power really have no limits!?"
That day, many geniuses who had ventured several hundred kilometers into the ruins encountered Chen Chu once more.
However, this time, Chen Chu didn’t snatch their prey. The level 6 and above monsters, unlike the level 5 ones that were only worth a single point of Purple Spirit, felt wrong to snatch.
In fact, when a few geniuses at the beginning-stage of the Sixth Heavenly Realm were being pursued by several beginning-stage level 7 monsters, Chen Chu, who was passing by, even lent a hand to save them.
Especially a silver mech from West Meng, radiating the energy of a middle-stage Sixth Heavenly Realm, which was being besieged by over a dozen late-stage Sixth Heavenly Realm monsters and several level 7 contaminated mutated beasts.
If it hadn’t been for Chen Chu’s intervention, that mech would’ve been torn apart or, at the very least, heavily damaged.
Although Chen Chu seemed to navigate the doomsday ruins with ease, this place was actually very dangerous.
The transcendent energy in the area was thin, greatly diminishing the force of true power when released. This meant that cultivators following the true martial art path had their strength reduced by at least twenty percent.
Additionally, with the ever-present corrosive void energy and the ruins crawling with void monsters starting from the Fifth Heavenly Realm, a slight misstep could lead to being surrounded by several, or even dozens of, monsters of the same level, making the situation extremely perilous. This wasn’t a place for single combat.
As Chen Chu continued to slay more and more void monsters, the dark purple murderous aura surrounding him grew increasingly intense, eventually almost engulfing his entire being.
Within this blood-chilling aura, Chen Chu’s eyes turned blood-red, and a terrifying vision of a blood-soaked hell began to materialize around him.
Although the contaminated mutated beasts had no value in their flesh due to their mutations, and even the peak level 6 and 7 monsters didn’t contain Life Crystals, killing them still accumulated blood aura, enhancing his Hellblood Battle Will and the vision of hell filled with seas of blood.
A single level 6 void monster contained vitality a thousand times that of an ordinary person.
By now, after half a day, Chen Chu had slain over two thousand level 6 and level 7 monsters, gathering a bloodthirsty aura equivalent to millions of ordinary blood aura, which was terrifyingly intense.
Under such an overwhelming increase in blood aura, the illusory Blood Sea Purgatory had expanded from a radius of thirty meters to forty meters, with countless monsters wailing and struggling within the blood sea.
The dark purple murderous aura swirling around Chen Chu seemed to be merging with the blood sea domain, forming a vision of a dark purple sky.
As Chen Chu circled the Oasis once more, the sky gradually began to darken.
Boom!
The hard rock shattered as Chen Chu's figure suddenly came to a halt. His sharp gaze fixed on the horizon, where a towering mountain, thousands of meters high, had risen from the earth.
At the mountain’s peak, black mist swirled, and amidst the rolling clouds, a terrifying silhouette stood prominently, its gaze filled with intense malice directed at Chen Chu.
