Chapter 507: Chapter 245: The Monarch Lurking in the Dark (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_3
An hour after the Thunderflame Emperor Beast had almost disappeared, the sea surface on the other side suddenly arched up.
Immediately afterwards, a gigantic beast over eighty meters in length emerged.
This giant beast’s body resembled that of a python, covered in blue scales armor, with a pair of sharp claws on its upper body like a human.
But the beast’s head was fiendishly demonic, encased in a pair of large, curved horns, giving off a somewhat peculiar and terrifying presence, filled with oppression.
After appearing, the Eighth Level Beast looked around cautiously and then carefully approached the coast, quickly reaching the center of the island after the great battle.
Looking at the magma fire sea that was still burning and boiling, the shattered mountain peaks, the cracked earth, the Demon Python Beast sniffed the air.
Soon, a look of horror appeared on its face, and its massive body turned to swim back to the sea, quickly departing in another direction.
Deep beneath the pitch-black seabed, a pair of golden vertical pupils slowly opened.
Watching the direction in which the Demon Python Beast had departed, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast pondered for a moment, then its tail moved silently, following behind.
Even as its massive body moved, it didn’t cause much disturbance in the sea water, as most of the kinetic energy was dissipated by the invisible force field formed by its Agility Talent.
Earlier, when the Thunderflame Emperor Beast entered the sea, it habitually unleashed electromagnetic waves, which vaguely detected the presence of the Demon Python Beast.
This was a rare mutated creature capable of hiding its aura.
If it weren’t for the Thunderflame Emperor Beast’s perception, which involved sensing water flow with its feather horn, scanning with electromagnetic dorsal fin waves, and a biological instinct for sensing the aura of strength, it might not have noticed it.
Following behind the giant beast, and keeping a distance of two kilometers, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast swam for nearly a thousand kilometers before abruptly stopping.
Because ahead, it sensed a powerful and terrifying aura, far surpassing that of the Ancient Tiger Flood Dragon and the Six-Armed Demon Ape; it should belong to a Mid Level 9 Giant Beast.
And this giant beast had a very high bloodline level, giving the Thunderflame Emperor Beast a sense that it was no less than the Silver Giant Dragon.
This was a King-level ninth-tier in mid-phase beast with a king-level bloodline, and although it had not approached, the invisibly emanated aura still felt slightly dangerous to the Thunderflame Emperor Beast.
Most importantly, did this giant beast seem to have its sights set on it?
And it seemed to have gathered some mutated creatures to form a giant beast power, the Eighth Level Demon Python likely being a scout, or it had just happened to encounter it hunting the Six-Armed Demon Ape.
Regardless of the situation, it was going to have an inevitable battle with both the Dragon Palace and this giant beast.
After looking deeply in the direction of the Level 9 Giant Beast’s aura, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast silently turned and left.
With its current strength, it could easily crush any Early Stage Level 9 Giant Beast, and killing those Mid Level 9 Giant Beasts with a Lord-level bloodline wouldn’t be a problem either.
However, facing a King-level giant beast with top-tier talents and at mid-phase Level 9, it was better to be cautious.
Having three top-tier talents itself, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast was well aware of the might of such talents, each one almost touching the edge of the rules, extremely terrifying.
However, as long as it could breakthrough to Level 9, or further enhance one talent to top-tier, fully stepping into the Monarch level of life, killing this giant beast should not be an issue.
A few hours later, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast returned to the Dragon Palace, around one in the afternoon.
The territory of that King-level Giant Beast, the Dragon Palace, and the demon ape’s territory roughly formed an isosceles triangle, with the straight-line distance to the Dragon Palace being about fifteen hundred kilometers.
Looking at the Thunderflame Emperor Beast, now even more intimidating and massive in stature, the guardian Blue Giant Crab moved sideways and eagerly approached
Gurgle gurgle!! Great King, you have returned, Great King, you have become even more mighty and strong, Great King, you are too formidable, truly worthy of being the Great King-
After a stream of flattery, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast felt annoyed and growled to interrupt: “Roar! Enough, keep a proper watch on the gate.”
After that, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast growled again, “Be vigilant of the surroundings recently. If you detect any unfamiliar lifeforms above Level 7 appearing, report it immediately.”
Gurgle gurgle!! Yes, Great King, I will always be watching the surroundings, and I won’t disappoint you, Great King, you look so inighty…
Boom! The Thunderflame Emperor Beast swung its claw and the terrifying strength exploded the sea water, forming a powerful vacuum shockwave that sent the Blue Giant Crab flying hundreds of meters.
Only then did it turn around and swim into the Dragon Palace World.
This guy has been told so many times, cut the crap, doesn’t he realize his flattery is too low-level? Repeating it over and over, my ears have grown tired of it.
Bang!
On the Worshipping Platform outside the Thunderflame Dragon King Palace, the ice crystals shattered as the Thunderflame Emperor Beast impaled the golden spine, shaped like a bamboo joint, erect as if it were a stele.
Together with the surrounding spine bones of the Ancient Tiger Flood Dragon, the prestige of the Thunderflame Dragon Palace suddenly became even more majestic and magnificent.
Hearing the commotion, the Tiger Whale, the Dragon Turtle, the Silver Giant Dragon, and Ghidorah all subconsciously extended their heads.
Seeing that rune-engraved spine and feeling the powerful aura emanating from it, they all narrowed their eyes, clearly understanding that the Thunderflame Emperor Beast had killed another Level 9 Giant Beast on its trip.
“Roar! Hegemon, you’ve killed another Level 9 Extraordinary Creature?” the Silver Giant Dragon asked, opening its mouth wide in surprise.
The attitude of the Thunderflame Emperor Beast was casual, as it bellowed, “I felt a bit hungry after emerging from my closed-door cultivation, so I went and killed a Level 9 Giant Beast to eat.”
“Roar! This skeleton contains part of the Giant Beast’s Talent Runes. You all can try to comprehend it if you like, and see if you can gain anything from it.” Suddenly, none of the Giant Beasts knew what to say.
They were all Eighth Level Extraordinary Lifeforms. Did you have to be such a freak, killing a Level 9 Giant Beast as easily as squishing a common creature?
Just as the Giant Beasts were doubting their beastly lives, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast suddenly stood upright and roared.
“Roar! Scythia, Ghidorah, Joe, and Domination, come out, all of you! Let’s gather Life Crystals, we need Level 3 and 4 as well.”
“This time, spread out in all directions. Clean sweep the territory controlled by the Dragon Palace once more, and return here in three days.”
The sudden roar of the Thunderflame Emperor Beast caught the Silver Giant Dragon and the others off guard.
But they were immediately followed by the excited roaring of the Deep Sea Dragon Turtle: Roar roar!! Let’s charge, it’s the perfect opportunity to test my new abilities.
Yingyingying!! Finally, I can go play… no, I mean collect things for Thunderflame.
Compared to the monotony of cultivation, the two Giant Beasts, who had been cooped up for over a week, were extremely excited, fearing that the Thunderflame Emperor Beast would change its mind, rushed out in haste.
Then came Ghidorah, the Nine-headed Flood Dragon, its nine dragon heads roared chaotically: “Roar roar roar!! Get it, help Abbott, get it, I’m the best, at it.”
Boom! Amidst a sky full of splashing water, the Nine-headed Flood Dragon surged forward.
As brothers, when the call is sounded, without a second thought, they charged out—such candor and straightforwardness.
Even the Silver Giant Dragon stepped forward with elegance.
Curse it, damn elegance. The Thunderflame Emperor Beast shook its head fiercely.
“Roar! In three days, Great Scythia will bring you many crystals, look forward to it.”
As it spoke, the Silver Giant Dragon held its head high, proudly pushed off with all four legs, and with a boom, dove into the water, causing a massive splash.
After the four Giant Beasts had left, the recently-returned Thunderflame Emperor Beast also left the Dragon Palace.
But the direction it chose was the territory of an unfamiliar Level 9 Giant Beast.
It still had a distance to go before reaching Level 9, and the only way to significantly increase its battle power in a short time was to become an Emperor-level gigantic beast.
Then, with its four top-tier talents, even if its growth level was only Level 8 Late Stage, it wouldn’t have a problem fighting and clashing with a Level 9 Mid-phase King-level Giant Beast.
But the Dragon Palace and the sea area in the rear had both been scoured by them once already; it was uncertain whether they could gather enough Life Crystals in a few days.
