Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 589: Summoning Breath, Dominating the Battlefield (I)

The rings stacked atop one another, resembling an ancient innate rune array radiating an aura of unparalleled destruction.

Golden flames burned brightly along the three pairs of feathery horns protruding from the dragon’s head. These flames entwined with countless silver spatial runes, shimmering in sync with Chen Chu’s space-time summoning ritual.

Simultaneously, the Demonic Dragon unleashed a thirty-meter-wide beam from its mouth. The beam, a fusion of the Sky-Scorching Golden Flames and Purple Void Death Toxin, erupted as a purple-gold column of light.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the beam passed through each thunder ring, its power multiplied. By the time it traversed the ninth ring, it had transformed into a purple-gold and blue pillar of light that pierced the heavens and the earth.

Ahead of the beam, a spinning vortex of dark blue energy appeared, spanning a hundred meters in diameter and distorting space and time.

Boom!

The purple-gold and blue beam collided with the vortex, causing it to tremble violently. Ripples of space-time energy radiated outward, illuminating the entire sky.

At the battlefield’s frontlines, the moment Chen Chu activated the Space-Time Altar, Alexis, whose true form was already in a broken state, sensed an overwhelming threat of death for the first time in his life.

“Nine Heads! Stop him now!” he roared in panic.

But it was too late. Chen Chu, standing eighty meters tall with three faces and six arms, remained resolute atop the altar. With a wave of his left hand toward the dark colossal beast several kilometers away, the vibrations of the spinning vortex above him intensified.

Boom!

A golden-purple-blue beam of light, dozens of meters wide and radiating apocalyptic energy, tore through the heavens and earth. The void trembled as the beam obliterated space itself, reducing everything it touched to dust.

The sheer destructive energy sent shockwaves through the battlefield, startling both the demon and human kings locked in aerial combat.

The dark colossal beast, unable to evade in time, let out a furious roar as it was locked in the beam’s path.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The dark beast’s nine heads bellowed in unison, releasing nine streams of black breath that merged into a single massive attack. This beam of breath clashed head-on with the oncoming golden-purple-blue light.

Simultaneously, the dark beast activated a domain of fused laws, encompassing over a thousand meters and reinforced by two distinct principles and four innate abilities.

Boom!

The two beams collided several kilometers from the dark beast, creating a blinding sphere of light with a diameter exceeding a kilometer. The resulting energy shockwave annihilated everything in its path.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Mountains crumbled, the earth erupted, and molten rock shot into the air before raining down across a radius of dozens of kilometers.

Amid the chaos, the golden-purple-blue beam continued its unstoppable advance, suppressing the black breath as it crashed against the dark beast’s domain.

Boom!

The intensified energy burst illuminated the entire third battlefield’s night sky, drawing the gaze of countless warriors and alien races.

Feeling the devastating power, nearing the late stages of mythology and approaching its peak, many onlookers were left in awe.

Even the two combatants in the sky, the human king and the demon king, instinctively paused their battle, their gazes fixed on Chen Chu, who stood atop the altar, orchestrating this destructive display.

However, the strain of maintaining the summoning altar was evident. Chen Chu’s aura grew increasingly weaker with each passing moment, the effort of summoning this apocalyptic breath taking a visible toll on him.

"Stop him!"

"Don't even think about it."

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The four mythical-level powerhouses clashed again in the sky, entangling each other in a frenzied battle to deny their opponents any chance to intervene.

"Nine Heads, hold him off!"

Beneath the dark colossal beast, Alexis—whose true form had only partially recovered—wore a grim expression, glaring at Chen Chu in the distance.

In Alexis’s hand, a crystal plaque imbued with spatial teleportation magic shattered. It could have torn open a spatial rift, but the attempt failed due to the intense spatial turbulence in the area.

Left without options, Alexis could only hope that the dark beast could endure.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Sensing the aura of death, the dark beast bellowed furiously, releasing boundless power. In an instant, its surroundings solidified into a domain, the radius of which flared brilliantly.

This skill was similar to the true form of the Nine-Headed Serpent’s domain, created from the fusion of the dark beast’s abilities and enabling it to integrate all of its power into the domain to create an impenetrable defense.

Even a late-stage mythical powerhouse would struggle to breach it, let alone harm the beast. This was precisely why it had been entrusted with protecting Alexis.

Behind them stood a middle-stage mythical colossal beast serving as backup, its combat power rivaling that of an ordinary demon king. In addition, Alexis carried a bloodline mark capable of unleashing a devastating blow or shielding against an attack from a demon god.

With allied demon kings and great demon kings dominating the battlefield, Alexis's survival had seemed assured—as long as no reckless moves were made.

Yet...

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Under the destructive power of the Demonic Dragon’s fusion breath, the kilometer-wide black sphere of energy protecting the dark beast began to crack and collapse. Finally, the black colossal beast was revealed, its expression frozen in shock.

"I refuse to accept this!" Alexis roared.

Boom!

Bathed in the power of the annihilating breath, the defenses surrounding Alexis shattered layer by layer. Eight layers of protective magical items disintegrated. The demon could only let out a final scream before his body was reduced to ashes.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The black colossal beast let out an agonized roar. Its massive body was blasted backward ten kilometers, crashing into a towering mountain peak.

Boom!

The mountain collapsed under the impact. As the ground trembled violently, a massive mushroom cloud rose, its light and energy fluctuations dimming the heavens and earth. The explosion forced all combatants within a hundred kilometers—human and alien alike—to halt and look toward the source of the devastation.

The annihilating golden-purple-blue beam that had pierced the heavens slowly dissipated. Chen Chu, standing atop the altar, watched as the dark beast’s aura vanished. He was at his peak, appearing as though a true god had descended as his True Demon God Form radiated divine might.

For a brief moment, the battlefield fell silent. Even the demon kings, human kings, and the distant Great Demon King Barus—locked in combat with Qingqiu Tianyao and the Eight-Tailed Celestial Fox—paused to look in his direction.

Qingqiu Tianyao and the Celestial Fox took the opportunity to catch their breath.

Though their combined strength barely managed to contend with the newly ascended great demon king, they could only hold out for so long. If it was an older great demon king, they would have suffered severe injuries.

That brat’s secret art... what is it? Qingqiu Tianyao glanced toward the third battlefield. When did my art become capable of directly summoning a breath attack?

To slay a middle-stage mythical colossal beast with a beginning-stage Ninth Heavenly Realm cultivation—this feat was unprecedented! Even the demon god observing the battle from the void cast its gaze upon Chen Chu.

Just as attention converged on him, however, Chen Chu’s face turned pale, and his aura plummeted.

The overwhelming expenditure of summoning this devastating breath attack prevented him from maintaining his True Demon God Form. His body rapidly shrank, reverting to his normal human appearance.

At the same time, the Space-Time Altar beneath him disintegrated, its myriad azure runes retracting and forming a blue altar mark on the back of Chen Chu's hand.

This scene didn’t go unnoticed. Ten kilometers away, several high-ranking Purgatory Clan powerhouses, initially awestruck, suddenly sensed an opportunity.

A beginning-stage Ninth Heavenly Realm Purgatory Demon legion commander roared, "That attack drained him! Now’s the best chance to kill him!"

From above came the furious roar of the great Demon King Barus. "It’s you, Chu Batian! All demons and alien races, hear my command: Kill that human, and you shall be rewarded with ten portions of Demon God Blood and a complete origin law!"

Chen Chu’s distinct three-faced, six-armed true form, radiating light from four light wheels and holding a halberd, had exposed his identity to Barus instantly.

The revelation ignited an indescribable killing intent within the great demon king. A day-cycle earlier, intelligence reports had described this human prodigy as merely at the Eighth Heavenly Realm.

In a single day-cycle, he had advanced to the Ninth Heavenly Realm, with combat prowess rivaling ordinary demon kings—and that terrifying summoning power.

This freak has to die.
