Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 555: Thunder Fiery is a Parent
Chapter 555: Thunder Fiery is a Parent
The self-destruction of a mythical-level colossal beast was terrifying, especially when it collapsed along with the world passage.
The destructive force from its explosion annihilated everything nearby and created a devastating shockwave that formed a cataclysmic typhoon. Tsunamis hundreds of meters high were sent out in all directions.
This destructive energy immediately triggered alarms at the ocean monitoring center.
"Report! Energy fluctuations from the mythical beast at Passage Two have vanished. It is confirmed dead."
"Spatial fluctuations at Passage Two have also disappeared. Satellite scans show the area is now completely obscured."
"This massive explosion has created a super typhoon at least level 20. It’s carrying tsunamis over a hundred meters high toward the nearby coasts. The closest is Baihu, over a thousand kilometers away, and they will reach it in about an hour.
"As potential energy diminishes, the tsunami’s height is expected to reduce to around fifty meters, but it will still cause catastrophic damage. It’s recommended to issue a disaster alert immediately."
"The coasts of Kata, 1,500 kilometers to the southwest, and Kuru, 2,300 kilometers to the northwest, will also be affected by the tsunamis."
After the staff finished their urgent report, the general on duty frowned grimly and said in a deep voice, "Immediately notify the three nations to evacuate coastal residents and prevent major casualties.
"Also, request the nearest Ninth Heavenly Realm expert in Baihu to intervene and disperse the tsunami’s first and strongest wave two hundred kilometers off the coast."
"Yes, sir."
After the general issued his orders, many faces in the monitoring center showed signs of awe.
"Thunder Fiery has become even more terrifying after breaking into the mythical level."
"Yeah, it only took a few minutes after reaching Passage Two to annihilate the middle stage mythical occupying it. It was a complete domination."
"Track the movement route of that colossal beast. Its next target seems to be Passage One. That passage is closer to the coastline of North Lin. If a late stage mythical level battle breaks out, the shockwave from the aftermath could cause an even more devastating tsunami disaster.
"Also, send a report on these anomalies to the higher-ups immediately..."

At the edge of the twenty-kilometer-wide destruction zone, the seawater roared and churned, only to be stopped by the power of laws unleashed from the self-destruction of the Magma Colossal Beast, forming a towering wall of water a kilometer high.
At the center of the explosion, everything had been obliterated, leaving behind an enormous crater over ten kilometers wide and more than two thousand meters deep.
At the bottom of the crater, dark red lava churned but could not erupt, as if suppressed by an overwhelming force.
Above the crater was a dark red colossal beast. It stood at 1,000 meters tall and was more than 1,500 meters long. Its body crackled with black and red destructive lightning, radiating an aura that could destroy this world.
Yet, this horrifying scene was abruptly interrupted by a series of tender cries.
Eeya, Eeya!
On top of the colossal beast's massive, armor-covered head was a Divine Purple Dragon, barely over a meter long, crawling out of its eggshell.
This small dragon was just as the legends had described. It was slender, majestic, and entirely covered in translucent, crystal-like purple scales. On its head were small antlers, like a deer's, surrounded by flowing purple mane. Two tiny ox-like ears would twitch occasionally, giving it an irresistible cuteness.
The Little Purple Dragon soon stood up on the thick red scales of the colossal beast. Its large purple gold eyes opened wide as it curiously observed its surroundings.
When the Purple Dragon hatched, a life aura befitting of an emperor spread across the area. Even the black and red destructive lightning that leaped around vanished whenever it came within a meter of the dragon.
Suddenly, in a flash of purple light, the Purple Dragon appeared in front of the Thunder Fiery Heavenly Dragon.
Eeya, Eeya!
Clinging to one of the Heavenly Dragon's thick eyelashes, the Purple Dragon radiated an air of joy. It chirped excitedly as it stared down into Thunder Fiery’s eyes.
Being a newborn, the Purple Dragon's attempts at communication were somewhat unclear. However, because it had absorbed the Heavenly Dragon's life energy, their life auras were connected, and Thunder Fiery could vaguely sense what the tiny dragon was trying to say.
This little creature was calling it "Mom."
Whoosh!
The Heavenly Dragon’s enormous, menacing jaws opened slightly, creating a powerful gust of wind, as it let out a space-shaking growl. Roar! Little one, I am not your mom.
Eeya? The little dragon tilted its head. For a moment, its large eyes filled with confusion, but quickly went back to chirping happily.
Eeya! Eeya!
The Heavenly Dragon sighed and growled again. Roar! I’m not your dad, either.
Eeya?
The Purple Dragon grew even more puzzled. In a flash of purple light, it landed on the Heavenly Dragon's giant nose. Then, with its tiny claws, it pointed toward where its egg had been.
Eeya, Eeya! Eeya?
The Purple Dragon gestured excitedly with its tiny claws, insisting that it had hatched from the egg on the Heavenly Dragon's head.
When the Purple Dragon gained awareness in its egg, it had sensed the Heavenly Dragon's life aura, so it didn't believe it was mistaken.
Roar! I really am not your mom or dad, the Heavenly Dragon growled, exasperated.
The Heavenly Dragon didn't want to be a parent at this young age. By human standards, it was only seventeen years old. In terms of its colossal beast body, it wasn't even a year old. It had no desire to become a parent right now.
Thunder Fiery tried to explain to the Purple Dragon. Roar! I found you in a micro-world. You were on the brink of death, and it was only after you absorbed some of my life energy that your life was stabilized.
Roar! And for a little guy, you really absorbed a lot of my life energy. But now that you’ve hatched, you can consider me your older brother.
Eeya? The little one blinked its big eyes in confusion, as if asking what a brother was.
The Heavenly Dragon growled softly. Roar! A brother is the dragon closest to you apart from your parents. From now on, stick with me until you grow up.
Hearing this, the little creature tilted its head, seemingly pondering the concept of a brother. Then, suddenly, its eyes lit up, and it nodded happily.
Eeya, Eeya! The Purple Dragon turned into a streak of purple light, joyfully zig-zagging through the jagged scales on top of the Heavenly Dragon’s head.
As it flew, the little one suddenly vanished, reappearing kilometers away at the bottom of the massive crater as if it had teleported.
The Purple Dragon widened its big eyes, curiously observing the roiling lava suppressed by the Heavenly Dragon’s immense pressure. Unable to resist, it cautiously reached out with a tiny claw to touch it.
Boom!
The lava instantly erupted into chaos, with endless torrents of scorching energy surging into the little dragon’s body through its claw.
After absorbing for just a moment, however, the Purple Dragon withdrew its claw, a trace of disdain flickering in its eyes.
Eeya! Eeya!
The Purple Dragon vanished again, reappearing at the edge of the sea wall ten kilometers away. It extended its right claw curiously to touch the water.
Boom!
Just like the lava, that section of the sea instantly erupted into chaos. Endless streams of blue energy flowed into its claw.
Much like before, the Purple Dragon stopped absorbing after a short while, seemingly dissatisfied with the low energy level.
The Heavenly Dragon pondered deeply as it observed.
The Purple Dragon’s realm was peculiar. The Heavenly Dragon couldn’t sense a specific level of cultivation from it, just that it seemed weak. Yet this creature could ignore the laws entwined around its own body, flying freely and teleporting to wherever it wanted. It was extraordinary, as if it was born to be a god.
Or rather, it was inherently divine.
For mutated creatures, only those with a trace of awakened king-level bloodline had the potential to break through to level 7, to become colossal beasts with the possibility of breaking through to level 9.
Bloodlines essentially represented a mutated creature's innate abilities and corresponded to their strength.
All mythical-level colossal beasts had to have at least king-level bloodlines, while mythical titan level colossal beasts needed emperor-level bloodlines. As their strength grew, their bloodlines continuously purified and ascended to higher levels.
In other words, a high-level bloodline didn’t necessarily guarantee strength, but powerful colossal beasts always had high-level bloodlines.
When the Purple Dragon was first found, its life force was almost gone, yet it still emitted an aura belonging to an emperor-level creature.
Later on, as it absorbed life energy from the Thunder Fiery Dragon Emperor, it stopped losing life energy. Then, its bloodline gradually purified until it reached a pseudo-heavenly-tier of life energy, enabling its incubation.
Unlike the Heavenly Dragon, which had evolved step by step, the Purple Dragon was born with a bloodline that was, at minimum, pseudo-heavenly-emperor level. A being like this was similar to the descendants of top-level mythical beasts from legends. It was born as a god.
Lost in thought, the black and red lightning coiling around the Heavenly Dragon dissipated. Its body shrank, rapidly returning to a size of just over five hundred meters. Suddenly, a strong wave of weakness surged through its body.
This was a side effect of using its explosive abilities. After all, even mythical-level creatures must abide by certain energy conservation rules.
When the Heavenly Dragon entered its gigantified state, it merged its innate abilities and the power of laws to unleash peak mythical-level strength, which caused a huge amount of energy consumption each second.
Of course, the brief time spent crushing the Magma Colossal Beast wasn’t enough to leave it severely weakened. A short rest would restore it to its peak condition.
At the same time, however, the Heavenly Dragon felt a twinge of regret. It hadn’t expected the Magma Colossal Beast to be so ruthless, choosing self-destruction to drag it down as well—leaving no scraps for consumption.
The self-destruction of a middle stage mythical-level colossal beast that wielded two basic laws was truly terrifying.
If the Heavenly Dragon didn't have the immunity to magic granted by the Chaotic Black Patterns ability, and if it hadn’t been in its crimson form, it would have been injured, even with the Vajra law
Sensing the Heavenly Dragon's weakened aura, the Purple Dragon, who had been playing nearby, instantly appeared before it. A human-like expression of concern appeared on its face.
Eeya! Eeya?
The Heavenly Dragon's mouth curled into a grim smile as it growled. Roar! I'm fine. I just overexerted myself fighting that creature earlier.
Looking at the slightly weakened Heavenly Dragon, the Purple Dragon tilted its head. In a flash, it appeared in front of the Heavenly Dragon's massive eyes and opened its mouth wide.
Roar!
Accompanied by a tender roar, a stream of pure purple energy sprayed from its mouth and into the Heavenly Dragon's eyes.
Compared to those, the Purple Dragon’s energy was barely visible. However, the moment this energy merged into the Heavenly Dragon's body, it felt a surge of explosion within it, like an invisible shockwave washing over it. Instantly, it felt like it had been revitalized.
