Chapter 324: Chapter 318: Bestial Desires Unleashed

"Late-tier Eight!"

The Giant Ape, soaring to over five hundred meters tall, stood on the ’mountainside,’ feeling the basic power within surge by several dozen times, a fierce smile appearing on its face.

By merely ’devouring’ the essence of an Early-tier Nine Heaven and Earth Giant Beast, it had directly rocketed from Early-tier Eight to Late-tier Eight.

This gain had already exceeded its expectations. Initially, the Chaos Giant Ape thought advancing to Mid-tier Eight would suffice, given that the essence didn’t seem large.

Moreover, the greatest gain this time wasn’t physical growth, but that Heaven and Earth essence.

It filled in the Chaos Giant Ape’s shortcomings as a Heaven and Earth Giant Beast.

The term ’Heaven and Earth’ in Heaven and Earth Giant Beast refers to that essence only a Giant Beast can absorb, granting endless energy.

After absorbing that Heaven and Earth essence, the duration of the Chaos Giant Ape’s Great Sun form and Demon Fiend form surged almost tenfold.

Moreover, the greatest effect of the Heaven and Earth essence is the ’True Body of Heaven and Earth,’ allowing the beast to unlimitedly assimilate certain materials, continuously expanding.

Hoo!

The Chaos Giant Ape exhaled a hot gust without paying attention to Akalin and others appearing on the horizon, and summoned the attribute page with a thought.

The sole talents in the beast’s attribute tab both changed.

Sole Talent: Devour and Evolve [A complete inner world is born within, capable of swallowing the heavens and feasting on the earth, absorbing and refining everything as evolution energy]

Heaven and Earth [Consumes the Power of the Ninth Epoch, initially fusing the Power of Eight Great Eras, transforming the inner world into a complete Heaven and Earth Giant Beast, possessing unparalleled destructive power.

Note: The more complete the Heaven and Earth Giant Beast form, the stronger the desire for beastly instincts to be released from the depths of the soul, increasing the risk of rampage]

The Chaos Giant Ape’s gaze swept over the changes in both sole talents, and the smile on its face immediately grew fiercer.

Like Feitong, it now also has an inner space that can ’slowly digest,’ sparing it several hours of feeding each time it hunts a massive fierce beast.

Thinking of this, the Chaos Giant Ape looked at the mountain range formed by the petrified Black Dragon Beast beneath it.

However, after a slight hesitation, it gave up the idea of ’devouring.’

This Chaotic Giant Beast had actually perished during the last civilization era, its revival merely a dead but unyielding remnant, mutated by the power of ruins.

Essentially, its body petrified at the end of the last era, powered by the inner world within.

Thus, as this beast perished, the ruin energy filling its body dispersed and rapidly petrified, turning completely into a mountain range in such a short time.

Naturally, as a demigod’s petrified material, this mountain range is almost equivalent to a high-grade Extraordinary Ore Vein.

But having already devoured the beast’s essence, consuming this mountain range would seem overly greedy, especially since this beast was slain by the Ancient God Research Institute’s Godslaying Hydrogen Bomb.

Boom! The Chaos Giant Ape’s form rapidly shrank, in the blink of an eye returning to a humanoid state donned in a black Emperor’s Robe with black hair cascading over its shoulders.

At this moment, Divine Palace Feiyue and others descended from the sky.

Akalin gratefully said, "Thank you for your support this time, Minister Jiang, otherwise, even if we could slay this beast, we would have paid a heavier price."

Jiang Hou smiled gently, "Miss Akalin, there’s no need to be so polite. As allies, it’s what I should do."

After some brief courtesies, they then moved to handle the beast’s ’corpse,’ and Akalin and others prepared to thank Jiang Hou for his assistance.

"No rush, Miss Akalin, could you arrange for a long-range bomber to fly directly to Nieleva Country on the Western Continent for me?"

Akalin paused, instinctively asking, "Nieleva, that’s where the Purple Dragon Divine Hall is, Minister Jiang, you’re going there to...?"

The others also shifted their gaze, faintly guessing something.

"To settle some grudges."

Jiang Hou calmly stated, "The Guardian of Purple Dragon Divine Hall, Ke Min, once placed a bounty on me at the Abudan battlefield, and recently conspired with a certain demigod in the Dark Realm to target me."

"Trouble repeatedly, even a mud can hold fire for three times."

"Combined with Purple Dragon Divine Hall’s heinous actions over the years, I’m going to erase this human tumor completely on this visit."

Eradicate Purple Dragon Divine Hall! Everyone froze.

They assumed Jiang Hou planned to subdue Ke Min this time, but didn’t expect him to intend to directly raze Purple Dragon Divine Hall.

However, given the strength Jiang Hou demonstrated earlier, he indeed has the confidence to destroy the Purple Dragon Hall currently guarded only by a Seventh-tier power, though... Akalin pondered.

"Minister Jiang, beheading that Ke Min is understandable, especially since they provoked you first, but the Purple Dragon Divine Hall might pose some trouble."

"The lord of Purple Dragon Divine Hall has already consolidated four celestial daos, reaching Demigod Peak. With sufficient godly material, they could step into the True God Realm at any moment."

"Even without being a True God, Demigod Peak’s combat power is vastly beyond imagination. Should they return..."

Jiang Hou replied coolly, "It doesn’t matter, if that lord opposes, we’ll kill them together."

Having reached Late-tier Eight with growth, under the amplification of Mythical Bloodline, Jiang Hou’s current normal combat strength is securely within Ninth-tier, not to mention his Great Sun and Demon Fiend forms.

Coupled with the Heaven and Earth supplementation allowing longer bursts of the Heaven and Earth Giant Beast form, he could even battle Demigod Peak.

This is merely the present.

In a few days, following the invasion of the outer world with the group of resurrected Demon Gods and obtaining the Divine King Origin, his strength will significantly surge, possibly stepping directly into Demigod.

Then obliterate any lord.

Even with his terrifying foundation, he might challenge a True God upon entering Demigod.

Sensing Jiang Hou’s intense self-assurance, Akalin and others halted their attempt to persuade him.

"Junior, I’ll go with you."

Divine Palace Feiyue behind her three pairs of wings slowly flapped, her voice icy, "We’ve been hunted by Purple Dragon Divine Hall for so many years, this time we’ll settle it all."

"Alright." Jiang Hou did not refuse.

Compared to him, the grudge Divine Palace Feiyue sisters hold against Purple Dragon Divine Hall is deeper, though they lacked strength in the past and could only endure, this time with Jiang Hou whose combat power defies the heavens.

"Sister, I..." Divine Palace Feirou felt moved, but before she could finish, Divine Palace Feiyue interrupted her.

"You can’t, your condition is still unstable, you need to stay here to continue absorbing the purified power of faith to avoid a backlash of the angel projection just formed within."

No time to lose, soon a roar came from another direction of the Bauhinia Capital’s outskirts military base.

With wings spanning over sixty meters, an intercontinental bomber flew towards the Western Continent at twice the speed of sound, cruising six thousand kilometers away.

On the bomber stood a man and a woman, hands behind their backs, surrounded by howling fierce winds, blowing their hair wildly.

While Jiang Hou flew in the bomber towards the Western Continent, communications disrupted by nuclear explosions slowly recovered in the western hemisphere.

At the Purple Dragon Divine Hall headquarters, the purple-haired young man first received news of Jiang Hou’s departure on the bomber.
