Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 740: The Awakening of the Titan-Level Dragon Emperor, Invasion of the Ancient Creature (III)

Chapter 740: The Awakening of the Titan-Level Dragon Emperor, Invasion of the Ancient Creature (III)

As the ancient creature approached within a thousand kilometers of the rift world, beneath the blazing lava lake, a pair of eyes with golden vertical pupils suddenly snapped open, radiating an indescribable majesty.

Their gaze was icy and aloof, like a divine presence overlooking all creation. A terrifying aura descended.

Boom!

The entire rift world trembled. The lava lake, spanning several dozen kilometers, erupted violently, sending a tsunami of molten rock thousands of meters high crashing outward.

A two-hundred-kilometer radius was instantly engulfed in a sea of molten fire. Trees ignited, and weaker mutated beasts screamed in agony.

The overwhelming pressure also startled the Golden-Blue Colossal Dragon, who had just completed a breakthrough and was slowly awakening. Its elegant form rose with a start and turned toward the disturbance.

At the center of the exploding lava lake, a massive black-red claw slowly emerged from the edge of a colossal void, slamming down on the scorched earth.

Then, a titanic figure gradually took shape. Its body stretched roughly 1,900 meters, like a small mountain range. Shoulders rose over 800 meters high, and just standing there, it exuded suffocating oppression.

The Destructive Dragon Emperor was still undergoing a phase of metamorphosis, but its level had already crossed into the titan level. Its overall appearance had undergone drastic change.

Its tail, which previously had a 5.3 to 4.7 proportion, had shifted to a 5.5 to 4.5 ratio—meaning over 1,000 meters of its body was now tail.

Its body remained stocky and powerful. The rear limbs were thick and muscular; the forelimbs, sharp and elongated. Its head, shaped like a divine eastern dragon, now looked even more ferocious and domineering. The black mane atop its head had grown longer and more lustrous, drifting in the air without wind.

Its entire body was clad in black-and-red scales, each one the size of a house and etched with dark patterns in hues of black-gold and violet.

Three rows of dorsal fins on its back resembled jagged mountain peaks, with thick black mane-like hair woven between them, extending all the way down to the tail. At the end, the fins merged into razor-sharp black-and-red blades, radiating a deadly, cutting aura.

The pair of scale-formed wings on its back had grown heavier, their edges as sharp as blades. They looked like metal sword-wings, adding an even more dominating presence to its form.

Now, having stepped into the titan level, the Dragon Emperor looked far more majestic and tyrannical. It also carried a strange, flowing grace because of the long mane atop its head and the fur across its back.

The sight made the Golden-Blue Dragon’s eyes light up; it loved elegance most of all.

However, all that was just appearance. At that moment, the Dragon Emperor’s scales and mane were coiled with wisps of energy. Though it looked black at first glance, a closer look revealed it was infused with countless colors, like a swirl of primordial chaos—a sign of laws beginning to fuse

The eight advanced high-level laws within the Dragon Emperor had begun a preliminary fusion. Under their convergence, a chaotic law-bound world had partially formed inside it, silently emanating an indescribable power.

Normally, the Dragon Emperor wouldn’t awaken until its law-bound world had fully transformed, at which point it would emerge as a true titan-level colossal beast. However...

Boom!

The entire world quaked. The Dragon Emperor appeared at the edge of the rift world, gazing into the distance where three colossal beasts were swimming back at full speed, pursued by an enormous creature.

A single glance was all that was needed for it to recognize the ancient creature that had blocked World Passage Three. Instantly, its gaze turned even colder as it thought to itself. I wasn’t even looking for you yet, and you came to my door yourself. Very well—then I’ll destroy you completely today.

The Dragon Emperor hadn’t forgotten the ancient creature that once tried to swallow it whole. It would have hunted that creature down eventually, even if it hadn’t appeared now.

Beyond revenge, it was also quite curious about these petrified failures of ancient true spirits, and whether their flesh would be edible.

Just then, the Golden-Blue Dragon flew over, exuding mythical-level pressure. Yet, in the Dragon Emperor’s presence, it seemed as if it was no more than a young girl.

However, when its gaze landed on the massive creature behind the female orca and the others, its eyes widened. It growled in grave warning. Thunder Fiery, that looks like an ancient creature!?

The Dragon Emperor growled back calmly. I know. It doesn’t matter.

Soon, the three fleeing colossal beasts reached the rift world, looking up at the world-fracturing sky, then at the black-and-red giant standing at the rift’s edge.

The Deep Sea Dragon Turtle immediately let out a thunderous roar. Thunder Fiery, perfect timing! That giant thing behind us has been chasing us nonstop. Kill it!

Feeling the Dragon Emperor’s crushing, space-bending aura, the Nine-Headed Serpent rolled wildly on the surface of the sea, letting out a frenzied chorus of roars. Ao Ba, avenge us! That damned thing nearly scared me to death! It’s horrifying; my tail’s still shaking! freewebnøvel.com

The Dragon Emperor was the pillar for these colossal beasts. As long as it was there, they felt no fear, no matter how terrifying the enemy.

Even the female orca, which had just believed the Dragon Emperor wouldn’t be strong enough, couldn’t help but exhale in relief when it saw the Dragon Emperor's majestic and domineering figure.

Roar!

The ancient creature, which had been controlling its pace and herding the trio, suddenly stopped. From deep within its cracked mountain-like body, a deep, booming roar echoed.

Facing the black-and-red colossal beast that had now stepped into the titan level, the ancient creature trembled. Cracks spread across its stony skin, and an ominous aura erupted.

It was as if something dreadful inside it was awakening. At the same time, it began muttering unconsciously, its will radiating in a storm of chaos. Heaven... eat... you...

When the Dragon Emperor sensed the laws seeping from the creature, its eyes ignited with battle intent. Its black mane danced without wind, igniting with flames.

On both sides of its head, three pairs of crystal-red feathery horns lit up with dazzling brilliance, adding to its noble and ferocious bearing.

You all back off, it growled as it slowly stepped out of the rift world. At once, a monstrous aura surged from its body, one that made even the heavens and earth tremble.

Boom!

Boundless red light lit up the world. Arcs of black-and-red lightning cracked through the sky like bleeding wounds that refused to fade.

Bathed in the crimson glow, the Dragon Emperor’s body expanded rapidly—bones cracking, muscles surging—until a deep-red behemoth stretching four thousand meters was revealed.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Its aura, rivaling that of an ancient titan, shook the sky. The sea surged into thousand-meter-high tsunamis, clearing out a hundred-kilometer radius of open seabed as the ocean floor collapsed.

Within the blood-red light, space itself shattered like glass, vanishing into a black-and-red destruction zone dozens of kilometers wide—a world of annihilation.

Standing tall within this void, the Dragon Emperor, now over three thousand meters tall, was sheathed in bolts of black, red, gold, and violet lightning, radiating an apocalyptic aura.

It resembled a primordial beast of destruction, one that embodied ruin itself. Its presence alone crushed everything—space, matter, will.

Behind it, in the endless red glow, a projection of the Dark-Red World began to form once more, clearer than ever before.

In that world where only red light and destruction existed, a terrifying figure tens of thousands of meters long appeared, radiating an aura that would drive all living beings to despair.

The immense form loomed shrouded in crimson mist. Its blurry, mountain-like head tilted ever so slightly, and instantly, a dreadful gaze pierced across time and space, locking onto the Dragon Emperor.

Then, a mighty will echoed through the void, rumbling in the depths of its consciousness. Do you wish to become my Dark-Red Envoy, and wield destruction in my name?

The Dragon Emperor let out a low, thunderous growl that shook heaven and earth. Not yet. Let me kill this thing first.
