Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 705: Long Time No See (II)
Chapter 705: Long Time No See (II)
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The aura of four powerful laws erupted from Chen Chu’s body. The entire planar world trembled as a supreme power deep within its core awakened.
Darkness spread from Chen Chu, transforming into a void that covered a ten-kilometer radius. Within this area, death lingered, golden flames flickered, and blue thunderbolts crackled.
Suddenly, the darkness around Chen Chu swirled, forming a phantom projection of two worlds, each a thousand meters in diameter. They hovered on his left and right, slowly rotating and radiating profound auras.
The projection on the left was the phantom of the micro-world that Chen Chu once contemplated when walking the path of heavenly kings. On the right was a phantom of the inner world within the Alliance of God’s ruins.
With the power of his divine soul, the incomprehensible insights he had recorded back in the ruins now manifested as projections, perfectly recreating the scenes from its destruction. free𝑤ebnovel.com
From the projections, Chen Chu could see the void consuming the inner world of the ruins once again. The sky collapsed, the ground shattered, and all things were annihilated, returning to silence. The air was filled with the aura of great destruction.
With a complete world and a collapsing world as reference, combined with the enhancement of the epiphany aura, Chen Chu's thoughts and consciousness surged at an incredible speed.
New insights emerged in his mind every moment, and his four high-level laws and the supreme law of power advanced and refined at an astonishing speed.
As Chen Chu's divine law power circulated within him, tempering his true form, the entire planar world trembled. Endless torrents of violent transcendent energy surged toward him, and he devoured it without end.
Although this planar world had a diameter of only eight hundred kilometers, it continuously absorbed energy from the chaotic void to expand, and there were no other cultivators draining its resources. As a result, its transcendent energy was ten times denser than that of the Blue Planet.
Time passed swiftly as Chen Chu cultivated. His aura grew stronger, while the epiphany aura surrounding him gradually faded. In a sense, the epiphany aura was simply another way of using attribute points, enhancing Chen Chu’s strength through a different approach.
Fully immersed in cultivation, Chen Chu was unaware of time passing. Suddenly, his smartwatch lit up and emitted a rhythmic beeping sound.
Chen Chu's eyelids trembled slightly. The last remnants of his epiphany aura faded away, along with the dark void, flames, lightning, and the two world projections.
"Is it already morning?"
Chen Chu slowly opened his eyes. His left eye blazed with golden flames, while arcs of blue thunderbolts coiled within his right. The sheer intensity of his gaze silently shattered the space ahead, leaving behind two black rifts over ten meters long.
This was the power of high-level laws. As Chen Chu's cultivation advanced, his control over them became even stronger, especially because he wielded multiple high-level laws at once.
Feeling the surge of power within him, Chen Chu activated the Hidden Divinity Power to suppress his aura. Then, he summoned his attribute panel and settled his gaze on the law progressions.
[Laws]
Law of Power(Supreme, Cultivation Progress: 5% → 6%)
Law of the Void(High Level, Cultivation Progress 5% → 7%)
Law of Death(High Level, Cultivation Progress: 5% → 7%)
Great Heavenly Sun Flame(High Level, Cultivation Progress: 5% → 8%)
Divine Thousand-Tribulation Lightning(High Level, Cultivation Progress: 5% → 8%)
Law of the Soul(High Level, Transformation Progress: 22%)
A full night of cultivation, along with burning ten thousand attribute points, had advanced all five of his actively cultivating laws. While most of them were at the same level, compared to void and death, the flame and lightning laws made the most progress.
The law of power’s relatively slow growth was due to a couple of factors. Not only was it a supreme law, making it harder to comprehend and perfect, but his planar world acted as an extension of that law, thus making its own growth a requirement for the law’s advancement.
This cultivation session had also improved his law of the soul. By refining the origin of the world from transcendent energy, he had increased his transformation progress by another two percent.
This special type of power contained traces of one's soul’s aura when extracted, making it impossible to trade or transfer. Only a small number of god-level resources containing pure origin power could be absorbed by others.
At this rate, it would take him around two months to complete the soul law’s transformation. Since he had already fully merged his divine soul, then as long as he had enough attribute points, Chen Chu could cultivate his four main laws to their peak within the same time frame and break through to the heavenly king level.
Two months seemed like a long time at first. However, cultivators in the peak of the Ninth Heavenly Realm could still take years or even a decade to break into the mythical level.
In the decades that had passed since the start of the mythical era, many kings such as Xie Chen had only reached the late stage of the king level, with only a handful successfully advancing to the heavenly king level. Most kings took years to comprehend a single low- or middle-level law.
Of course, Chen Chu’s rapid cultivation speed was largely due to his exceptional talent as a freak. With his soul potential fully unlocked and a powerful physical body, Chen Chu’s cultivation talent surpassed everyone in the Federation. His comprehension ability was already on par with An Fuqing’s.
Furthermore, with the use of attribute points, the path of heavenly kings, and the destruction of the ruins, a two-month breakthrough to the heavenly king level was actually reasonable.
The advancement into the heavenly king level was a long and difficult journey, and for Chen Chu to do it in months made his speed utterly terrifying.
At 7:30 AM, Chen Hu, dressed in his middle school uniform, called up to the second floor from downstairs. "Bro, come down for breakfast!"
"Coming," Chen Chu responded. He appeared moments later, wearing a white long-sleeved T-shirt, gray casual pants, and white flat-soled shoes.
At the dining table, Chen Hu chomped down on a mutated beast meat bun made by Zhang Xiaolan, mumbling between bites, "Bro, got plans for today?"
Chen Chu took a sip of soy milk before picking up a bun. "I'm heading to school today. I made plans with Old Xia and the others."
"Oh, so you’ve got something with brother Xia," Chen Hu nodded, stuffing two more meat buns into his mouth.
Meanwhile, Chen Chu’s gaze pierced through the walls to the street outside. Even this early in the morning, the place was bustling, with a group of neighborhood aunties gathered around Zhang Xiaolan.
One woman asked, "Xiaolan, my husband said your boy Chen Chu came back yesterday. Is that true?"
Zhang Xiaolan smiled and nodded. "Yes, Ah Chu got back yesterday, but he’s only here because of a military assignment."
A well-dressed middle-aged woman gasped in surprise. "A military assignment? No wonder! I was wondering why Chen Chu flew home in a fighter jet last night."
Zhang Xiaolan chuckled. "That plane was a custom-built jet designed specifically for Ah Chu by the military. From what I hear, there are only a few dozen of them in the entire Federation."
"What? Custom-built?" The surrounding women gasped in shock, unable to hide their envy.
"Xiaolan, your Chen Chu is really something now!"
Zhang Xiaolan beamed, nodding. "He’s doing okay. For now, he’s still focused on cultivation, but for certain reasons, he’s also been put in charge of some soldiers."
Seeing the smile on Zhang Xiaolan’s face, Chen Chu chuckled and continued eating breakfast with Chen Hu.
Maybe it was because she cooked a massive pot of food for Chen Hu every day, but Zhang Xiaolan’s culinary skills had improved so much that even Chen Chu found himself eating more than ten extra buns.
By the time they finished off the entire stack, Chen Hu had also emptied a pot of porridge and stuffed down ten youtiao.[1] before finally sighing in satisfaction. "Bro, I’m full."
"Then let’s head out. It’s already eight o’clock."
1. A youtiao is a long, fried dough stick that is a breakfast staple in China. It is also known as the Chinese cruller or Chinese donut stick. ☜
