Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 649: A Brutal Battle, Taixu Nether Light Scriptures Sixth Stage (I)
Chapter 649: A Brutal Battle, Taixu Nether Light Scripture's Sixth Stage (I)
Unlike human cultivators, who harnessed the power of heaven and earth and wielded the laws with their divine souls, colossal beasts that followed the path of evolution relied purely on raw strength.
They had no intricate techniques, nor did they possess a profound mastery of laws. When two mythical-level colossal beasts of similar size and strength clashed, the outcome depended entirely on their innate fighting instincts honed through countless battles.
Roar!
The Qiongqi beast, measuring 1,100 meters long, was engulfed in a raging sea of blood-colored flames, streaking across the sky like a crimson comet.
Opposing it, the Silver Colossal Dragon flapped its massive wings, accelerating at several times the speed of sound. Around it, a storm infused with black winds and ice crystals spread over a five-kilometer radius, freezing and shattering everything in its path.
Boom!
The fiery sea clashed against the icy storm, igniting a dazzling black-and-red energy shockwave at the point of impact. The violent burst of power illuminated the sky, rippling outward in an expanding wave of destruction.
At the very moment their domains collided, the two colossal creatures crashed into each other at supersonic speed.
Boom!
The Silver Dragon's claws, glowing with silvery light, clashed against the Qiongqi's flaming talons. An eruption of pure black energy exploded from the impact, sending transparent spatial ripples outward in all directions.
Crack! Crack!
The tremendous force sent tremors through the Silver Dragon's massive frame. The space beneath its feet fractured continuously, forming deep rifts that spread like a web of destruction.
Roar!
The Silver Dragon let out a furious bellow. Its claws swelled with explosive power, and the silver scales covering its shoulders and arms bristled, making it look even more fearsome and imposing.
As a dragon-type lifeform, its body had evolved to near perfection—immense strength, impenetrable defenses, razor-sharp claws, and unparalleled flight capabilities.
Moreover, under the guidance of the Heavenly Azure Dragon Emperor, the Silver Dragon had shattered its limits multiple times, evolving its bloodline to possess two top-level innate abilities, and rising to become a supreme king-level colossal beast.
After its breakthrough to the mythical level, it awakened an innate spatial rune alongside the Destructive Ice Crystal Storm, both of which transformed into high-level laws, further tempering and enhancing its body.
Now, unleashing its full power, it fought evenly against the middle-stage mythical-level Qiongqi, which also carried a king-level bloodline.
Roar!
The Qiongqi, larger in size, bared its savage, lion-like maw and lunged at the Silver Dragon, attempting to bite its head clean off.
For colossal beasts, sheer size granted a significant advantage in close combat. The Qiongqi’s gaping maw was large enough to engulf the Silver Dragon’s entire head in one bite.
Just as it struck, however, a massive crystalline pillar—hundreds of meters thick and stretching for thousands of meters—descended from the sky. Carrying a weight that seemed to suppress the world, it slammed directly onto the Qiongqi’s head.
Boom!
Under the crushing force, the Qiongqi’s formidable body trembled. Even with its monstrous resilience, its skull sank slightly under the impact of the colossal crystal pillar.
Roar!
Seizing the moment, the Silver Dragon let out a ferocious roar. Its claws exploded with power as it pulled downward, while its body lunged forward, ramming its shoulder fiercely into the Qiongqi’s neck.
A devastating impact ensued—flames erupted in a violent explosion, and the Qiongqi let out a pained scream as its massive body was sent crashing to the ground, engulfed in a sea of red fire.
Boom!
The land for over ten kilometers shattered—mountains crumbled, and a surge of dirt and debris shot skyward like an apocalyptic explosion.
A shockwave spread outward in a ring, sweeping across dozens of kilometers. Everything in its path—trees, rocks, and terrain—was obliterated or set ablaze, leaving behind rolling clouds of smoke and devastation.
In their seamless coordination, the two colossal dragons had gained an early advantage. In mere moments, the Qiongqi had suffered its first setback.
Roar!
From the shattered crater, the flame-shrouded Qiongqi staggered to its feet. Lifting its gaze to the Golden-Blue Colossal Dragon circling tens of thousands of meters above, it bellowed in fury.
That damned quasi-mythical beast dared to ambush me!
Boom!
The Qiongqi’s enormous wings flapped, triggering a repelling force field that erupted outward. The terrifying rebound force allowed it to vanish at an incredible speed.
Roar! Your opponent is the great Saixitia!
The Silver Dragon, well aware of the Qiongqi’s extreme speed, distorted the space around it, instantly appearing beneath the Golden-Blue Dragon. Its claws, wrapped in black ice crystal storms, slashed forward.
Boom!
The black ice crystal storm howled, while the crimson flames blazed across the sky. The two mythical colossal beasts clashed once more in a cataclysmic impact.
Roar!
The Qiongqi, now blocked by the Silver Dragon, roared in rage. Ignoring the compressed ice crystal storm surging around the dragon’s claws, it swung its talon directly at the Silver Dragon’s head.
Boom!
The Silver Dragon’s claw, imbued with the high-level law of the Destructive Ice Crystal Storm, struck the Qiongqi’s chest. Under the power of absolute freezing and crushing destruction, the Qiongqi’s ten-meter-thick flame barrier shattered instantly. The unimpeded impact blasted apart its dark-red, dense scales, sending flesh and blood flying.
Yet, at the same time, the Qiongqi’s blood-flame-clad talon smashed into the Silver Dragon’s shoulder.
Boom!
The scorching, overbearing force shattered the spatially-condensed crystalline barrier on the dragon’s body. Dragon scales exploded, revealing the silver-golden flesh beneath.
Boom!
Blow for blow, injury for injury. The Silver Dragon was sent flying by the strike, while the Qiongqi was also blasted away by the exploding force of the Ice Storm. Blood rained down from the sky.
Roar!
Higher in the sky, the Golden-Blue Dragon let out a resounding roar. Hundreds of radiant crystals, glowing in red, blue, and purple hues, erupted with brilliance before descending like meteors, engulfing the Qiongqi below.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In an instant, the crystals, each possessing destructive power akin to miniature nuclear explosions, detonated upon impact. The unleashed energy obliterated everything in the vicinity, sending dozens of mushroom clouds soaring into the sky.
Yet, as a colossal beast that had awakened the ancient Qiongqi bloodline, the dark-red beast possessed monstrous defenses and the raw strength to battle dragons.
As the dust and smoke from the explosion cleared, the Qiongqi stood unscathed within a massive crater spanning several kilometers.
The wounds inflicted earlier by the Silver Dragon had already healed save for regenerating the scales, leaving behind only smoldering flames that radiated an aura of sheer ferocity.
Above, the Silver Dragon spread its wings wide, its shoulder wounds miraculously restored by its astonishing regenerative abilities. Surrounded by a swirling black storm, it locked eyes with the Qiongqi below in an intense standoff.
Not far away, the Golden-Blue Dragon coiled in the sky alongside a red colossal beast, its body shimmering with dazzling multi-colored crystalline light. Black and white hues flickered intermittently, exuding a violent aura no weaker than an ordinary mythical colossal beast.
Observing the tense confrontation of the four towering beasts from a distance, the Little Purple Dragon perched atop the Single-Horned Kun excitedly waved its tiny claws. Eeya! Eeya! Fight! Tear it apart! Yiyi wants to see rivers of blood!
Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Fight!
The Single-Horned Kun flapped its fins enthusiastically, its crimson eyes burning with a murderous aura. If not for its insufficient strength, it would have long since charged in to join the fray.
Having fought its way through countless battles under the Dragon Emperor, its very being was steeped in bloodlust and slaughter.
Roar!
Suddenly, an earth-shaking roar thundered across the heavens. The Silver Dragon's wings flared as it dived in a streak of black-silver light, its overwhelming aura crashing down like a tidal wave.
Simultaneously, the Qiongqi, resembling a living mountain range, erupted into the sky, wreathed in raging flames that scorched the heavens and exuding an earth-shattering presence.
Just then, the sky darkened. A vast region spanning over ten kilometers plunged into absolute darkness, as time itself slowed to a crawl. Everything moved hundreds of times slower than normal.
Roar!
A deep, drawn-out roar echoed through the darkness. A red tail, over two thousand meters long, swept across the heavens and earth, shattering the atmosphere and generating billowing white shockwaves before striking the Qiongqi.
The cataclysmic force obliterated the fiery sea surrounding the beast, sending waves of rolling flames surging to the sides. Carrying a power that could annihilate all, the tail crashed down onto the Qiongqi.
Boom!
Yet, despite the devastating impact, it was Zhulong's tail that suffered. Its scales shattered, flesh and blood flying in all directions. Meanwhile, the Qiongqi, clad in dark-red scales, remained unmoved—its unshakable defenses intact.
Though the strike failed to break through, however, the sheer force behind it still sent the Qiongqi skidding hundreds of meters sideways. At the same time, the time-distorting power enveloping the battlefield dissipated, restoring everything to normal.
Roar!
The Qiongqi, propelled by inertia, shot skyward, colliding once more with the Silver Dragon, which had descended like a falling star.
However, due to Zhulong's intervention, the Qiongqi's claws missed their target. Meanwhile, the Silver Dragon, its claws imbued with spatial power, sliced through the air, tearing open eight black rifts in space as they raked across the Qiongqi’s flank.
Roar!
A pained howl erupted from the Qiongqi as its side was slashed apart. Eight massive wounds, over three hundred meters long and forty meters deep, marred its body. Golden-red flesh gaped open within each wound, revealing writhing internal organs and spewing flames as torrents of crimson blood gushed forth.
The attack had nearly crippled the Qiongqi. The loss of blood and the searing pain drove it into a complete frenzy.
Boom!
Its colossal wings flared as it vanished in an instant.
Roar!
Above, the Golden-Blue Dragon let out a thunderous roar, summoning a blue crystalline construct a thousand meters in diameter.
Boom!
Before the crystal could fully form, a massive claw tore through it with brutal force, instantly shattering the construct—an embodiment of the Golden-Blue Dragon’s domain and ability.
Yet, just as the Qiongqi obliterated the crystal, the space behind it distorted.The Silver Dragon teleported directly behind the Qiongqi, its maw aglow with energy.
Boom!
At point-blank range, a massive azure-white breath attack, dozens of meters in diameter, slammed into the Qiongqi's back. In an instant, half of its body—including one wing—was frozen solid, its raging flames extinguished.
At the same time, amid the explosive shockwaves of the shattered crystal, a colossal, thirty-meter-wide rainbow-hued breath attack erupted, tearing through space and crashing directly into the Qiongqi's chest.
Roar!
The dark-red Qiongqi, struck from both the front and rear by the breath attacks, let out a ferocious bellow. Ignoring its injuries, it endured the seven-colored breath and slammed a claw into the side of the Golden-Blue Dragon.
Boom!
Under the strike of a middle-stage mythical-level beast, the newly condensed domain around the Golden-Blue Dragon shattered instantly. Its crystals exploded upon impact, and with a thunderous crash, its massive body plummeted from the sky.
