Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast

Ahead of this massive beast horde, the earth rose into undulating mountain ranges, studded with brilliantly colored ores and lush vegetation. Beneath the dim sky, the landscape resembled a dreamlike paradise.

What had stopped the army was a thousand-meter-long metallic azure dragon with two wings, radiating mythical aura. Atop the dragon rode a being of another race. This towering figure stood over a hundred meters tall, clad entirely in heavy azure armor. Two horns protruded from its head, making it look like a humanoid minotaur. Wielding a massive trident, it loudly bellowed,Stop! This is the domain of the great Five-Colored Empire. No being above the mythical level may enter without the permission of the mighty Five-Colored Sovereign.

Despite facing a formation of colossal beasts, each as massive as a mountain and emanating an ancient aura, this minotaur-like being, whose strength was at the peak of the mythical level, showed no fear. As it raised its trident, the world behind it trembled violently. From the land below, five-colored light erupted into the heavens, brilliant radiance surging skyward.

Boom!

In that instant, a true-spirit-level will descended and took shape as a five-colored colossal beast phantom that blotted out the sky.

This was the source of the Sky-Patrolling Yaksha's confidence. As a guardian of the empire's borderlands, not only was its own strength formidable, it was also authorized to wield the powers of this domain's principles.

More importantly, it had a true spirit backing it, so even in the face of this army, which included several ancient titans, it remained fearless. Creatures like these were not unknown to its empire.

Gazing at the terrifying phantom behind the Sky-Patrolling Yaksha and the oppressive power of the true spirit level radiating from it, all of the colossal beasts narrowed their eyes, except for the Destructive Dragon Emperor.

The ten-thousand-meter-long Midgard Serpent let out a hiss.King, the empire ahead was established by a true spirit. Should we go around it?

Several other ancient titans turned their gazes toward the golden-black colossal beast at the front of the army. Their target this time was to launch an expedition against a civilization called the Purgatory Clan. Starting a conflict with a strange true spirit's empire seemed unnecessary.

The Dragon Emperor glanced at the five-colored beast phantom that spanned the skies and radiated a true-spirit-level aura, then turned toward the Time Dragon.

The Time Dragon seemed uncertain as well.When I passed through here over a hundred years ago, it didn't look like this. There were no colossal beasts which had founded an empire.

I see,the Dragon Emperor thought with a slow nod. Then, with a cold glint in its eyes, it looked at the hostile Sky-Patrolling Yaksha. Its deep and regal growl shook the heavens and earth.Go straight through. A detour would be a waste of time.

The territory controlled by a true spirit could span tens or even hundreds of millions of kilometers. Add in surrounding forbidden zones or spatial rifts, and taking a detour would be far too costly.

Besides, the true-spirit-level aura triggered by this opponent didn't seem very strong. It posed no sense of danger to the Dragon Emperor. If the other side knew its place, they could join the empire's expedition. If not, the Dragon Emperor wouldn't mind devouring them. It needed energy to grow, after all.

Stop—Seeing the golden-black colossal beast charging straight into the five-colored domain, the Sky-Patrolling Yaksha panicked and tried to block the way.

Boom!

A golden-black dragon claw blotted out the sky and shattered all things, including space. A chaotic void a thousand kilometers wide tore open. The Sky-Patrolling Yaksha didn't even manage a scream. It and the bronze flying dragon beneath it were instantly obliterated, their divine souls annihilated by flickering black lightning.

A mere mythical creature dares to act high and mighty before me. Seeking death.

Just as the Dragon Emperor casually swiped its claw and erased the Yaksha, the five-colored beast phantom towering between heaven and earth began to tremble. Its eyes suddenly lit up.

Roar!

Before the Dragon Emperor could strike again, the magma beast behind it unleashed a violent roar, and its nine heads glowed with radiant light. Streams of lava blasted forward, stretching across thousands of kilometers in an instant and slamming into the five-colored beast phantom.

Boom!

A blinding explosion erupted between heaven and earth. In a flash, the phantom was torn apart, leaving behind only a rapidly expanding dark-red sun. When it swelled to three thousand kilometers in diameter, it suddenly stopped, then collapsed inward at high speed. At the point of ultimate compression, it flared with dazzling brilliance once more.

Boom!

A torrent of red light exploded outward, sweeping across more than ten thousand kilometers. Space crumbled, mountain ranges collapsed, and the earth turned to ash. In the blink of an eye, the dreamlike paradise that once glimmered with multicolored brilliance was reduced to hellish rivers of molten lava. Under the darkened sky, it looked like the end of days.

Standing beside the Dragon Emperor, the Ancient Magma Dragon radiated a terrifying presence. All of the titans and mythical colossal beasts behind them were filled with awe. Even the Time Dragon and the other ancient titans were surprised by the sheer power of that strike.

Only the Dragon Emperor remained cold and impassive. Each of the Magma Dragon's heads could unleash an attack equivalent to the full power of a late-stage ancient-titan-level beast. After refining an entire magma world into itself, its strength ranked just beneath the Dragon Emperor.

Let's go!The Dragon Emperor gave a low growl. Its massive body shattered space as it flew forward, churning up waves of black shockwaves. In the blink of an eye, it appeared tens of thousands of kilometers away.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The Midgard Serpent and other colossal beasts let out thunderous cries, their power erupting as they followed closely. Since the Dragon Emperor didn't care, what was there to be afraid of? They would charge after it without hesitation.

The Dragon Palace housed eight ancient titans. Among them, the Dragon Emperor reigned supreme, having surpassed the bounds of the ancient titan level. Even if the opponent was also a true spirit, so what?

The Black Qilin roared,Wait, King.

A blinding black radiance erupted from its body, expanding across several thousand kilometers and enveloping the entire beast army in a surge of speed.

The titans and mythical beasts were far too slow. By the time they reached the battlefield, it would likely already be over. They needed the ancient titans to carry them in flight. This method consumed more energy, but with a large enough force, they could rotate shifts and manage it.

Just as the colossal beast army invaded and obliterated the five-colored phantom, far off in the distance, a five-colored mountain range stretching over ten thousand kilometers suddenly shook.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The heavens and earth trembled. The range slowly began to rise as the peaks crumbled. Countless ores exploded, filling the air with clouds of dust.

Moo!

A roar filled with rage rang out across the world. The soundwave dispersed all mist within a hundred thousand kilometers, revealing a boundless black night sky beyond. At the same time, a true spirit's will swept across the land. In an instant, five massive ancient creatures within tens of millions of kilometers turned their gaze in this direction.

Who dares provoke the supreme king of colossal beasts?

King is calling...The five ancient titans growled, not daring to hesitate. They soared into the sky.

Across the land, over a dozen titans and more than fifty resting mythical beasts also roared in response and flew toward the massive figure radiating five-colored light. Even the alien cities surrounding the range for hundreds of thousands of kilometers quaked.

Moments later, tens of thousands of bull-headed, human-bodied warriors burst into the sky, clad in white, azure, red, purple, and blue armor. The weakest among them exuded a level 8 aura.

Soon, a towering colossal beast appeared, its height surpassing a thousand kilometers and its body stretching over ten thousand. Its massive head reached the heavens, and its entire form was clad in thick, heavy scales. It resembled a five-colored rhinoceros with three pairs of curved horns. Before this awe-inspiring true spirit, a bull-headed alien, radiating an ancient aura, was the first to arrive.

Boom!

A minotaur, over ten thousand meters tall and clad in multicolored heavy armor, descended from the sky. The ground within a thousand kilometers shattered instantly as countless rocks and shockwaves shot skyward.

This alien's skin was dark, and its face ferocious, mouth filled with sharp teeth like a bull demon. Its crimson eyes flared, and hot waves of air blasted from its nostrils. Staring at the colossal true spirit before it, it growled low and deep. "King, who was so bold as to enrage you? Allow your humble servant to grind them into dust."

Compared to the true spirit that stretched ten thousand kilometers, the ten-kilometer-tall minotaur was as small as an insect.

The Five-Colored True Spirit lowered its head slightly and cast a glance at the speaker, then slowly raised its gaze toward the horizon. Its massive eyes, like five-colored crystals, gleamed coldly as it let out a thunderous growl that shook the heavens.A group of unfamiliar beasts has invaded my domain, led by eight ancient titans.

"A mere group of ancient titans dared to trespass into our glorious empire? Seeking death."Murderous intent lit up in the minotaur's demonic eyes.

In the eyes of beasts and aliens beneath the true spirit level, a true spirit was invincible—unshakeable and unmatched. As a result, upon hearing that the intruders were merely ancient titans, the minotaur's heart surged with battle lust and cruelty.

Roar!

A deafening roar shattered the air. A python over sixteen thousand meters long burst forth from the void, its translucent white crystalline body gleaming like forged white crystal. Wherever it passed, space silently shattered, leaving behind a black serpentine path that stretched endlessly through the world.

Radiating a middle-stage ancient-titan-level aura, the Void Python respectfully lowered its head before the True Spirit.Greetings, great king of the empire.

The True Spirit gave a slight nod. As its colossal head moved, the surrounding time and space trembled, and massive white shockwaves swept across thousands of kilometers like a tidal surge.

Far away, at the edge of the sky, mountain peaks crumbled and exploded under the forceful winds. Amid the roaring earth, a colossal beast appeared. It was seven thousand meters long, four thousand meters tall, its body covered in black spikes, its head wolf-like yet even more ferocious.

On another side of the sky, thunder and storms howled. Red lightning filled the clouds, forming a stormfront that spanned thousands of kilometers. From within it, a flying beast descended, its wingspan reaching ten thousand meters and its shadow covering the heavens.

Boom!

A thousand kilometers beneath the feet of the True Spirit, the ground collapsed, forming a massive sinkhole. From within emerged a serpent-dragon hybrid with fourteen thousand meters of length and countless long legs, covered entirely in segmented black armor.

The last ancient titan to arrive was a golden three-headed dragon over nine thousand meters long, encased in gleaming golden armor. Each of its heads exuded regal might and golden brilliance.

When this Three-Headed Golden Dragon appeared, the other four ancient titans, including the minotaur, all showed signs of dread. This middle-stage ancient titan was the strongest among the six present.

Greetings, great Five-Colored King.

King...

The ancient titans stood respectfully before the True Spirit, heads lowered in reverence.

The True Spirit gave a small nod in acknowledgment. It remained motionless, quietly waiting. Soon, titans two to three thousand meters long and mythical beasts a few hundred to over a thousand meters began to gather as well.

Ironically, those who arrived last were the minotaur aliens who had been closest. Very quickly, a legion of minotaurs had formed around the massive True Spirit. Most were level 8, with tens of thousands at level 9, and over twenty of mythical level.

Surrounding them were five ancient titans, over a dozen titans, and more than fifty mythical beasts. A powerful imperial aura burst forth from the host.

More importantly, all of these minotaurs and colossal beasts radiated law-based brilliance in red, black, and white, resonating with the five-colored power of the True Spirit. This made the multicolored radiance of the realm even more vibrant.

From afar, the scene resembled a boundless five-colored ocean stretching millions of kilometers across the black night. At the edges lay shimmering coasts filled with multicolored materials and ores. All of it amplified the terrifying aura of the True Spirit, elevating it like a sovereign ruling over the world.

As this mighty empire assembled under the dominion of the True Spirit, a savage, wrathful roar burst forth from nearly a million kilometers away, echoing through heaven and earth. The Dragon Emperor had arrived.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Sensing the growing pressure of principle suppression in the realm, endless black lightning erupted from the Dragon Emperor, shattering space as it expanded outward. The destructive force of the Endbringer's Annihilation demolished even the five-colored glow, and the world groaned under the weight.

Above the heavens, boundless black clouds gathered into a vast funnel vortex, overlapping and engulfing tens of thousands of kilometers. Red-and-black lightning bolts crackled within.

Beneath the storm, the Dragon Emperor spread its wings wide like the harbinger of world-ending doom. Its feral roar rumbled across the skies.All beasts, follow me. Kill them all.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The Black Qilin, ray-beasts, and other beasts roared with boiling blood, their battle cries shaking the world.

Invincible!

Kill! Kill all the enemies!

The Azure-White Colossal Dragon swiped down, rousing the sleeping Silver Colossal Dragon. Under the fevered atmosphere, its silver eyes snapped open. Gazing at the sky-dominating figure above, it spread its wings, broke free from the dragon claw, and soared upward with a roar.Charge, Ao Tian! The great Saixitia demands rivers of blood!

From among the mythical beast ranks, the Dragon Turtle's eyes glowed dark red as it bellowed.Kill! Today Baxia will fight ten!

And me, Ghidorah!

Roar!Zhulong howled sharply.

The Single-Horned Kunpeng and the Golden-Blue Colossal Dragon also forced themselves awake from their slumber. Domains of law unfurled as they roared to the heavens.

The beasts that had once followed the Dragon Emperor in its conquest of the Blue Planet's oceans were roused again, burning with fervor.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The storm of annihilation and lightning roared across the skies at thousands of times the speed of sound, tearing through the five-colored brilliance of the realm. The invisible collision of the two colossal forces released thunderous shockwaves.

Soon, the dark-red stormfront reached the heart of the Five-Colored Empire. From afar, they could see the enormous figure standing between heaven and earth, its body radiating five-colored light that lit up the world.

So huge!Even the Dragon Emperor was taken aback when it first saw the True Spirit's full body of the true spirit.

Aside from the primordial colossal beast that had once fallen from the sky, this was the largest it had ever seen. Fortunately, despite its immense size, the aura it exuded was only at the beginning- to middle-stage of the true spirit level.

It can be taken.
