Mythical Era: I Evolved Into A Stellar-Level Beast

Chapter 656: Chapter 298: The Alternation of Day and Night, the Mythical Candle Dragon (Requesting Monthly Votes)

Looking at the five fragments of the Thunder Law and the phantom of thunder patterns in the sky, Jack Clark thought for a moment.

“Mr. Lopes, I’ll take four of the Thunder Law fragments, and you’ll take one fragment along with the inheritance. No objections, right?”

The inheritance of the Thunder Prison True Body was very extreme; for Jack to cultivate it, he would have to give up the Combat Divine Body and reshape the True Martial Phantom, which was obviously not possible.

It was just the inheritance of a strong man who was slightly more powerful than the Heavenly King; he didn’t need the inheritance, as he could carve out an even stronger path on his own.

In comparison, Damon Lopes, an Innate Thunder awakenened one, was actually more suitable.

“Thank you, Brother Clark. I will remember this favor,” Damon Lopes accepted without any refusal.

Jack Clark smiled: “We’re brothers who have shared life-and-death experiences. You don’t have to be polite. Next time something good like this comes up, remember to include me.”

Although the inheritance he had obtained this time was not suitable for him, Jack Clark was not at a loss.

Every one of the Thunder Law fragments, formed by the dissipation of Law Power during the cultivation of the Lord of Thunder, could unleash the peak power of the Eight Layer Heaven once activated.

Beyond that, aside from being used as one-time consumables, these Law Fragments also contained some Mysteries of the Law.

If someone cultivating Thunder attribute Cultivation Methods obtained a Thunder Fragment, the Cultivation Methods and Talent Runes that were practiced under the influence of the Law Power would slowly evolve.

As for Innate Thunder awakeners like Damon Lopes, it goes without saying.

Having obtained the Thunder Prison inheritance and then absorbing the Thunder Law Fragments, his innate thunder would undergo a secondary qualitative change, and his combat power would surge greatly.

“Mr. Lopes, be careful. I’m going to collect the fragments,” Jack warned.

As he spoke, the Combat Shadow appeared behind Jack Clark once again. The thirty meter-high True Martial Phantom reached out with four arms towards the four Thunder Law Fragments.

Boom!

The moment the Combat Shadow’s four arms grasped the Law Fragments, powerful destructive lightning erupted from the fragments, causing the surroundings to shake violently with an alarming momentum.

This was the power involving Law; even just fragments were not something ordinary people could handle or possess.

About ten minutes later, the raging thunder finally subsided, revealing the panting figure of Jack Clark, and the Combat Shadow which now appeared somewhat transparent.

At this time, the four Thunder Law Fragments had turned into silver-blue thunder patterns, twined around the four arms of the Combat Shadow, invisibly emitting a Destructive Aura.

Damon Lopes was somewhat envious: “With the addition of four Law Fragments, Brother Clark, your strength will become even more monstrous.”

“You’re not too shabby yourself, Mr. Lopes.”

“That’s right,” Damon Lopes laughed with a hehe.

With his new four cards in hand, Jack Clark bid farewell: “Mr. Lopes, I have to continue slaying polluted monsters and hone my Combat Techniques, so I won’t keep you company here.”

…to hone Combat Techniques.

Although suspicious, Damon Lopes did not speak out and merely nodded: “Go ahead, Brother Clark. Although you are very strong, still try to be as careful as possible.”

“Yeah, I will be careful.”

Leaving Damon Lopes to closed-door cultivation in the small world unaffected by Void Energy, Jack Clark transformed into a golden light and rushed out of the relic, continuing to accumulate passive skills.

“What did they gain in there?”

Outside the relic, watching the golden silhouette burst out of the relic, Marcellus Larry was somewhat curious.

Due to the barrier between the inner and outer small worlds, the Eye of Heaven Observation could not see the situation inside, and thus did not witness the scene where Jack Clark transformed into the Fighting War Emperor Dragon Form and exploded the Thunder Battle Puppet.

Lori Joyner slowly said, “When Damon Lopes opened the small world earlier, there was lightning flashing on the stele, so there’s a good chance it’s the inheritance of that Lord of Thunder.”

“Lord of Thunder, wasn’t his inheritance on the Road to Godhood?”

…

Beep, beep, beep!!

“Alert, a Level 9 lifeform’s energy fluctuation has entered the Kurole Strait.”

“Alert, energy fluctuation steady at Late Stage 9, the creature is moving rapidly, with a speed of 400 meters per second, forming a tsunami on the sea surface.”

“Warning, coastal research teams, please evacuate the Seaside immediately, please evacuate…”

In a cold region, at the entrance of a strait just ten kilometers wide, the Northern Ice Ocean Mutated Creatures Research Station was situated, and at this moment, a rapid alert was being broadcast.

On the coast, hearing the alert, the faces of the dozen or so staff members changed dramatically as the middle-aged leader shouted: “Everyone drop your tools, retreat, retreat.”

Just as these researchers, with strength around the Third and Fourth Layers, burst out at full strength towards the nearby hillside, loud rumbling sounds quickly came from the distance.

Out in the middle of the strait, the ice covering the surface was constantly being shattered, and the sea water was bulging tens of meters high, forming a fierce tsunami engulfing everything.

Amid the breaking ice and rising tsunami, a black-red dorsal fin surfaced, resembling a series of rugged and sharp reef rocks.

Watched by the researchers on the hillside, the huge dark shadow passed through the strait in the blink of an eye, rushed into the North Ice Sea Area, and soon disappeared into the Deep Ocean.

“Such a terrifying Mutated Creature. Just its passing creates such frightening aftershocks. Thank goodness this place is deserted, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.”

“Yes, compared to us humans, these Mutated Creatures are truly blessed.”

“Stop chatting, hurry and see if the equipment is still there. I hope it hasn’t been swept away by the tsunami…”

While those human researchers scrambled down the hillside, nearly ten thousand kilometers away, the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon that rushed into the North Ice Sea felt a sudden sharp drop in temperature around it.

Then, creatures from the cold waters appeared before the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon.

Boom!

In the deep sea area at 500 meters, a mutated walrus more than 20 meters long and covered in gray scales didn’t have time to react before it was bitten in half by the passing Thunderflame Emperor Dragon.

This mid-level sixth creature was devoured by the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon in just two bites, leaving only crimson blood and floating remnants of flesh and blood as evidence that the creature had existed.

At this time, the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon was like a great white shark that had entered a river, – its electromagnetic wave sensing capable of detecting everything within a few kilometers range, as it moved through the water at subsonic speeds.

Under these circumstances, numerous sixth and seventh level Mutated Unique Beasts hadn’t even reacted before they were savagely devoured by the gaping maw that suddenly appeared from the darkness with a resounding boom.

However, the target of the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon was those eighth and ninth level Giant Beasts. Therefore, after entering the North Ice Sea Area, it consciously headed towards the deeper sea.

There, the heavenly energy was denser, hence stronger Mutated Creatures preferred the deep-sea environment.

Beneath the pitch-black deep sea, more than 3000 meters below, lay a Late Stage eighth level Giant Beast, 110 meters long, sleeping among a silver coral reef that stretched for over a kilometer.

The sprawling coral reef, like a forest beneath the sea, emitted an ice-cold aura, keeping the surrounding sea water at a freezing yet unfrozen temperature.

As the whale-like Mutated Giant Beast slept, it breathed in harmony with the corals, inhaling and exhaling the cold energies.

Suddenly, the eighth level Beast opened its eyes wide, followed immediately by a terrified roar.

Roar!

With the eighth level white whale Giant Beast at its center, bursts of white icy light beams erupted, freezing everything in sight and instantly forming an ice mountain hundreds of meters wide.

Boom!

Above the ice mountain, a black-red giant claw wrapped in golden flames and entwined with thunder appeared.

Boom!

A terrifying Dragon Claw strike shattered the hundreds of meters wide ice mountain, the seabed collapsed, and along with it, the skull of the eighth level Giant Beast was obliterated.

In the raging sea water dyed red with blood, the massive figure of the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon slowly descended, its icy gaze fixed on the corpse of the white whale Giant Beast on the seabed.

The Thunderflame Emperor Dragon grabbed the corpse of the Giant Beast with its double claws, and while continuing to search for its next target, it began devouring with large bites, tearing off tens of tons of flesh and blood with each mouthful.

As this flesh and blood was consumed, the rich biological energy radiated from the stomach of the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon, greedily absorbed by its cells which then began to split and compress.

Under the surge of energy, the size of the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon visibly grew, making a crackling sound as the scales expanded, swelling in a matter of moments.

While the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon grew, Jack Clark’s already formidable body also enhanced bit by bit, endlessly increasing in strength.

The continuous hunting and devouring, and the abundance of ‘resources,’ allowed the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon to grow rapidly, reaching a length of 165 meters in just half a day.

By this time, the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon had nearly reached the deepest part of the North Ice.

Compared to the sea area it first entered, this place was much smaller. However, due to the lack of ‘predatory creatures’ like the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon, the ‘crops’ here were thriving.

But as it swam, the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon noticed that the seventh level and above Mutated Creatures were thinning out, causing its ice-cold golden vertical pupils to suddenly light up.

Such a signal indicated a high probability of a nearby Level 9 Giant Beast.

Only a creature standing at the pinnacle of transcendence could radiate an aura capable of driving away the Giant Beasts above level seven within a certain range, forbidding them from plundering the heavenly energy.

Though the ocean is vast, the heavenly energy is still limited.

If too many Giant Beasts inhabited an area, the energy density of that area would diminish over the long term due to their constant absorption and plundering, affecting the improvement of their strength.

As for the Dragon Palace established by the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon, this issue had not yet surfaced given the short time it had been set up.

Or rather, there was no chance for this problem to surface, as the Single-horned Tiger Whale and others absorbed heavenly energy at a rate far slower than it expanded its territory and plundered resources.

Following its path further ahead, the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon swam less than 300 kilometers when it sensed a powerful aura. The immense pressure was even felt by itself, inducing a slight sense of oppression.

Instantly, its eyes gleamed with excitement. This Level 9 Giant Beast was mighty indeed.

If the current strength of the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon could feel a hint of intangible pressure, it meant this Giant Beast was at least at Late Stage 9, and its bloodline had reached Monarch level.

A Late Stage 9 Monarch level Giant Beast, nearly 300 meters in length, with flesh and blood rich in energy and life factors – devouring it would at least cause its own size to swell by twenty meters.

Boom!

Hot golden flames erupted behind the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon as it shot through the deep sea like a submerged fighter aircraft, disappearing into the dark depths in the blink of an eye.

Deep down at 5000 meters, a mountain range stretched for a hundred kilometers and rose from the seabed, reaching a height of a kilometer.

Amidst the peaks of this underwater mountain range lay a beast over 300 meters long, resembling an Eastern Divine Dragon with a body covered in red scales, deep in slumber.

Unlike the legendary Eastern Divine Dragons, this beast’s tail nearly made up two-thirds of its body, sprawling across the mountains like a wall.

It seemed to sense something, and the Red Giant Beast suddenly opened its eyes, illuminating the dark sea in an instant.

Endless radiance of unknown origin turned ten kilometers of the deep sea into daylight, allowing a clear view of the marine life floating in the waters.

On the edge of this daylight zone stood a black-red ferocious behemoth, its body coursing with Hidden Deity Glyphs allowing it to approach silently.

In contrast to the 300-meter-long Red Giant Beast, the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon, at a mere 160 meters, appeared to be a younger brother who could seemingly be suppressed with a single claw.

Yet the eyes of the Red Giant beast immediately displayed vigilance, as if facing a grave threat, its colossal body ‘slowly’ rising, emitting a deep, slow growl.

“Intruder…”
