Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 567: The True Innate Demon God, Journey to the Frontlines (II)

Boom!

The black-scaled giant’s body swelled, emanating earth-shaking power. As he stretched out his hands, a massive black mountain, over a hundred meters tall, materialized above him.

The moment the enormous black seal appeared, the earth within a kilometer sank under its immense weight, collapsing ten meters into the ground.

Roar!

The white dragon circling in the sky let out a thunderous roar, unleashing a surge of power so overwhelming that Ji Quan paled.

"Little Ji, that’s the Giant Cult’s Divine Heaven-Suppressing Seal! Its crushing force is unstoppable—you can’t take it head-on!"

However, their concerns were unfounded. With a mighty roar, the white dragon glowed brightly and accelerated in a flash, streaking away as a blur of white light. At the same time, the other two figures activated their secret arts.

Azure wings projected out from behind Ji Quan, while the woman’s feet shimmered with golden light. Their speeds surged dramatically.

As elite fighters carrying out special missions, each of them possessed at least one speed-enhancing secret art, though these techniques were energy-intensive and typically used sparingly.

Boom!

As the three figures accelerated, the massive black seal descended. Transparent spatial layers trembled under its pressure, unleashing an energy shockwave like a tidal wave.

The ground within hundreds of meters shattered instantly, hurling rocks and soil skyward, while the surrounding terrain quaked violently.

The invisible shockwave swept across several kilometers, momentarily halting the escape of Ji Wuji and his companions.

"Stay!" Another middle-stage Ninth Heavenly Realm giant roared as his aura exploded with ferocity. His leg muscles doubled in size, unleashing an immense force that sent him rocketing forward like a supersonic missile.

Boom!

Though these Ninth Heavenly Realm Giant Cult experts could hover in the air, their flying speed was slow due to their techniques. However, they had developed countermeasures against agility-based cultivators.

Sensing the oppressive aura closing in from behind, Dong Wenyue’s expression changed dramatically. "We can’t wait any longer. I’ll draw them away. You two go on ahead—"

Boom!

Before Dong Wenyue could finish, a black rift hundreds of meters high tore through the sky above the three of them. From within the void appeared a figure exuding an aura that felt both divine and demonic.

Chen Chu had just emerged from the depths of the void when a figure wrapped in swirling black energy, radiating the aura of the beginning stage of the Ninth Heavenly Realm, lunged at him. The figure carried a massive black mountain over its broad shoulders, emanating an oppressive and deadly force.

Seeing Chen Chu—his pressure clearly indicating the Ninth Heavenly Realm—and the unmistakable human aura he exuded, Talor’s expression twisted into a savage grin. "Another Federation lackey! Die!"

Boom!

Talor hurled the black mountain forward. Instantly, the surrounding air shattered, and waves of energy roared like a meteor falling from the heavens.

"Giant Cult," Chen Chu muttered coldly. He arched an eyebrow as the nearly four-meter-long halberd in his hand radiated a dazzling light. With a casual sweep of his arm—

Boom!

In an instant, a phantom of the halberd, hundreds of meters long and shimmering with a purple-gold hue, materialized. The strike froze and shattered the surrounding space, and created a black vacuum zone spanning a kilometer.

Under this terrifying blow, the black mountain—refined from a black-gold ore and incredibly heavy—shattered into fragments. Following it, Talor's towering fifteen-meter giant body, known for its durability and strength, was obliterated.

Boom!

Blinding purple-gold light exploded in the sky, generating violent shockwaves that rolled into roaring white waves of energy, sweeping across a radius of ten kilometers. Fierce winds howled as sand and stones scattered in the air.

For a brief moment, silence reigned. Whether it was the fleeing Ji Wuji and his two companions or the Giant Cultists giving chase, everyone instinctively halted.

Their gazes locked onto the imposing figure standing in the air, their expressions a mix of seriousness and astonishment.

"This guy... He’s already at the Ninth Heavenly Realm!" Ji Wuji, recognizing the awe-inspiring young man, was momentarily dumbfounded.

Having been shocked by Chen Chu multiple times in the past, however, he quickly composed himself. While surprised, he was more overjoyed than anything else. Chen Chu’s combat strength remained as indomitable as ever, capable of slaughtering enemies of the same level with effortless ease.

Now that he was here, none of the Giant Cultists hunting them down would escape today.

Filled with excitement, Ji Wuji shouted, "Chen Chu, don’t let those Giant Cultists get away!"

Chen Chu, who appeared slightly bewildered at first, maintained a calm expression. With a faint nod, his gaze fell on the other middle-stage Ninth Heavenly Realm Giant Cultist in the distance.

Boom!

Chen Chu took a single step, seemingly teleporting several kilometers to appear directly in front of the giant. His speed was so incredible that it exceeded the giant’s ability to react.

Bang!

Before the cultist could respond, half of his enormous body was obliterated by the halberd’s crushing blow. Shredded flesh and blood sprayed out in all directions, mixing with the violent energy that scattered across a radius of several hundred meters.

The overwhelming display of power left the remaining Eighth Heavenly Realm cultists visibly shaken. One of the bishops, at the late stage of the Eighth Realm, roared in desperation.

"He’s too strong! We can’t stop him. Split up and flee—someone must get the message back!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The cultists erupted with power, shattering the ground as they pushed their speed to the limit and scattering in all directions to escape.

However, the moment they burst into motion, Chen Chu’s eyes gleamed with black-gold vertical pupils that seemed to shroud the heavens. Instantly, the grasping energy of the void descended.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The space several kilometers away shattered into a dozen black voids, each spanning over ten meters and devouring everything in their vicinity. Within moments, the fragmented corpses of thirteen Giant Cultists were swallowed whole.

"So powerful!"

Ji Quan swallowed nervously, his face awash with disbelief as he stared at the vanishing voids. The self-restoring space gradually concealed the destruction caused by Chen Chu’s devastating might.

In less than a minute, Chen Chu had wiped out two Ninth Heavenly Realm experts and over a dozen Eighth Realm bishops. His combat prowess was beyond imagination.

Looking at the figure standing tall in the distance, Dong Wenyue let out a slow breath. She turned her head slightly and asked, "Little Ji, do you know that man?"

Ji Wuji’s expression turned complicated as he nodded. "I guess you could say I do. Chen Chu and I both broke through to the Eighth Heavenly Realm at the front base about a month ago."

"What?! Are you saying he was only at the beginning stage of the Eighth Realm just a month ago?" Both Ji Quan and Dong Wenyue’s faces lit up with shock.

Advancing from the beginning stage of the Eighth Realm to the Ninth in a month? What kind of monstrous cultivation speed is that?!

Seeing their stunned expressions, Ji Wuji sighed and added in a low voice, "Not just a Realm per month—he hasn’t even finished his first year of high school yet."

Cough, cough!

The burly Ji Quan choked on his own saliva, his face turning red in disbelief. For an Eighth Heavenly Realm expert, such a feat was nearly inconceivable.

Dong Wenyue was equally astonished. "Little Ji, you’re not joking, are you?"

He’s still a freshman. That means he reached the Ninth Heavenly Realm in a year!

Ji Wuji frowned. "Do you think I’d joke about something like this? Also, could you stop calling me Little Ji? Just call me Wuji."

At that moment, Chen Chu’s figure flickered in the distance, covering kilometers in an instant as if the very ground had shrunk beneath his feet. Within a few blinks, he appeared before the group.

Seeing the towering Ji Wuji, clad in snow-white robes, Chen Chu’s lips curved into a faint smile. "Long time no see."

Ji Wuji sighed and replied, "It hasn’t been that long—just about a month. But you’re still as monstrous as ever, already breaking through to the Ninth Realm."

Chen Chu chuckled. "I’ve just had some lucky encounters on this trip, which sped up my cultivation a little.

"But you’re not doing too bad yourself—already at the middle stage of the Eighth Realm. You truly live up to the title of a genius comparable to an Innate Awakener." Chen Chu couldn’t help but admire him.

Compared to him, Ji Wuji was the true prodigy.

Although Ji Wuji's aura seemed slightly unstable after breaking through to the middle stage of the Eighth Heavenly Realm, indicating some difficulty, his rate of progress was still astonishing. Reaching the late stage would undoubtedly require more time, but even so, his speed was remarkable.

After all, even after reaching the Eighth Heavenly Realm, he could still advance a minor realm every month.

Ji Wuji could sense from Chen Chu’s sincere tone that there was no mockery intended, but he still felt a bit embarrassed and decided to change the subject. "Let’s not dwell on that topic. Thank you for your help today. Without your intervention, it would have cost us greatly to escape those guys."

"No need to mention it. We’re all part of the Federation. How could I stand by in such a situation?"

After the polite exchange, Ji Wuji briefly introduced the other two companions, Ji Quan and Dong Wenyue.

All three of them were currently part of the Expansion Division’s Thirtieth Legion, working on a mission. This time, they had uncovered critical information about Gai, the god of the Giant Cult. As a result, they were hunted by the cult's experts.

Chen Chu refrained from asking for the specifics of their intelligence.

The group’s next destination was over a thousand kilometers away in Jingtai's Immortal Region, a neutral territory governed by a king-level human powerhouse. Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed across Chen Chu’s face. "So the area ahead is the True Immortal Jingtai's region? Have I already entered the Alliance of Gods?"

The Alliance of Gods was an expansive coalition located tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Thirtieth Legion’s base.

It was a broad territory controlled by numerous forces, including seven king-level human powerhouses who had defected, as well as renegade gods like the Blood God Akunus, and over twenty mythical-level alien powerhouses.

In total, the Alliance of Gods housed nearly forty mythical-level entities. Its strongest members were a supreme powerhouse of an alien race and three heavenly-king-level beings.

Among the human kings in the alliance, some styled themselves differently: one from North Lin called himself the Beast God, another from West Meng declared himself a True God, while the one from East Xia referred to himself as an Immortal.

The regions these kings refined and controlled were known as the Beast God Region, the Divine Region, and the Immortal Region, respectively.

True Immortal Jingtai was a king-level powerhouse at the late stage. Even ordinary heavenly kings found it challenging to contend with him.

However, Chen Chu recalled some classified information he had come across in the past. It subtly suggested that these so-called neutral human powerhouses within the Alliance of Gods were not as impartial as they appeared.

The intelligence hinted that if he encountered danger within the Alliance, he could seek refuge in the regions of these “neutral” human powerhouses.

As this thought crossed his mind, Chen Chu’s eyes flickered subtly.

As the group conversed, their supersonic cruise brought them closer to the Immortal Region.

In the distance, a white, translucent barrier stretched endlessly into the sky, extending beyond the horizon. Inside the barrier, the scenery was idyllic, with vibrant greenery and clear rivers, resembling a paradise.

Outside, however, the land was barren and lifeless.

Hum!

Ji Wuji and the others passed directly through the barrier, causing ripples to spread outward. As they passed, an invisible wave scanned their bodies.

At that moment, Ji Wuji turned back and said, "Oh, right, Chen Chu, three days ago, I ran into An Fuqing. She ventured into the Alliance of Gods alone."

Chen Chu was slightly taken aback. "An Fuqing? Has she already broken through to the Seventh Realm? Did she mention where she was headed?"

Ji Wuji shook his head. "No, she just asked me for directions before leaving."

Chen Chu nodded. Watching Ji Wuji and the others disappear into the depths of the Immortal Region, he turned and flew in another direction, heading back to the Thirtieth Legion’s base.

While An Fuqing was obsessed with martial arts, she wasn’t reckless. Her performance during the Kyrola trial had already demonstrated her intelligence.

Therefore, Chen Chu wasn’t concerned about her safety. Her journey into the Alliance of Gods after breaking through to the Seventh Heavenly Realm was likely to gather information about her enemy.

Everyone had their own path. An Fuqing sought vengeance against her enemy, while Chen Chu had his own tasks to complete. His destination was the frontline.

There, human and Purgatory Clan mythical-level powerhouses were locked in a standoff. With his current combat strength, he could dominate the battlefield, unmatched by anyone.

Of course, such vicious destruction would only be possible once. Afterward, he would inevitably attract the attention of even more powerful beings—perhaps demon kings or even greater ones.
