Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast

Chapter 414: Infinite Moves Stacking, Defying the Rules of Life (II)

Before long, Chen Chu and his two companions arrived at the boundary between the Oasis and the ruins, a place that seemed like an entirely different world.

The sky was dark and oppressive, the ground cracked and barren. There wasn't a trace of life—not even a single blade of grass—imbuing the area with an atmosphere of death and doom.

As they passed through the invisible barrier, it instantly felt as though they had entered another world. The transcendent energy here was thin, mixed with a force filled with destruction and darkness.

"Be careful," Chen Chu warned. "The force of true power will be weakened here, and recovery will be suppressed by the void energy. We'll have to rely on Energy Crystals."

An Fuqing nodded slightly. "The gene cultivators of North Lin are better suited in such a place, since their bodies are strong and not so heavily reliant on true power.

"Although the mech cultivators from West Meng have strong firepower, they depend more on ammunition.

"As always, safety first—everyone, be careful."

With that, the three of them split up, dashing off in different directions with no immediate plans to join forces.

At supersonic speeds, Chen Chu covered hundreds of kilometers in just a short time, stirring up strong winds and dust as he stopped on a small mountain a thousand meters high.

"So this is void energy. It’s somewhat similar to the Double Void Pupils’ power."

After crossing over a hundred kilometers, Chen Chu noticed that the destructive, violent energy in the air had become more intense, while the transcendent energy was no longer detectable.

These void energies bore some resemblance to the power contained within his double pupils, but they seemed to be of a lower level and more chaotic.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In the ruins of an old, broken-down town, most of the buildings had decayed and disappeared, leaving only a few wooden posts and foundational walls standing. Dozens of eerie figures roamed within.

These "people" stood two meters tall. Their bodies were covered in purple scales and surrounded by wisps of black and purple smoke-like energy, emitting an oppressive aura comparable to the Fifth Heavenly Realm.

Among these figures were two towering soldiers, over three meters tall, clad in tattered black armor and wielding rusted spears.

The oppressive aura from these soldiers was even stronger, with thick clouds of black and purple smoke swirling around them as they patrolled the town, driven by their obsessions from life.

"Are these the monsters that were corrupted by void energy? How strange, completely different from mutated or colossal beasts."

Beneath the collapsed city walls, there was a ten-meter-wide area shrouded in darkness. Chen Chu used this patch to conceal his presence, observing the monsters from afar.

Using the Dark Veil stealth technique combined with the Hidden Divinity secret art, Chen Chu completely vanished from sight. Even at a distance of several dozen meters, the void monsters failed to detect him. Of course, this trick wouldn't work under sunlight.

As he eyed the two ancient soldiers, Chen Chu's pupils turned black, golden vertical slits appearing within them, as a surge of void energy exploded outward.

Boom!

With the sound of shattering glass, a five-meter radius around one soldier collapsed into fragments, countless black rifts tearing everything apart.

The powerful soldier, with his Sixth Heavenly Realm aura, had his sturdy body instantly shattered into dozens of pieces that scattered across the ground.

The sudden turn of events caused the other monsters to pause. They all then snapped their gaze toward the distance, where the darkness had dissipated, revealing Chen Chu clad in ornate golden battle armor.

As he examined the shattered corpse in the distance, Chen Chu pondered. "So even at minimum consumption, it still requires ten percent of void energy."

Roar!

The remaining void monsters erupted with a violent aura and transformed into black shadows as they shot toward Chen Chu with incredible speed, causing walls to collapse and the ground to crack wherever they passed.

Watching the approaching void monsters, Chen Chu slowly clenched his fist, his entire body unleashing its muscular strength. Instantly, a power that seemed to shake the heavens and earth spread out.

Simultaneously, a thirty-meter-tall figure clad in black and red armor slowly emerged behind him. In an instant, Chen Chu’s aura surged dramatically.

Boom!

With the battle phantom's empowerment, Chen Chu's already formidable strength and defense increased fivefold, with thunderbolts flashing and golden flames burning around him.

The immense power caused the surrounding air to explode and form a gust of wind that swept outward from Chen Chu, sending rocks flying and causing the ground to tremble.

Chen Chu's right hand seemed to form a fist, yet also a seal, as endless power roared within him. The thunderbolts and flames surrounding him all converged into his right hand.

At the same time, the battle phantom behind Chen Chu also clenched its right hand into a fist, forming a seal. Immediately, the thin transcendent energy within a hundred-meter radius was drawn in, converging rapidly.

"Divine Might, Annihilation."

Boom!

With a single punch enveloped in thunderbolts and fire, the ground collapsed, material shattered, and the air was compressed into a liquid state, creating a devastating shockwave that exploded outward in all directions.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The shockwave, comparable to a typhoon of several levels, caused walls within a hundred-meter radius to collapse, debris to scatter, and dust to fill the air. The earth-shaking tremors and thunderous roars echoed continuously.

When the dust finally settled, the street and the remains of the buildings had vanished, leaving only a massive crater extending several dozen meters forward. The monsters had all been obliterated by Chen Chu's punch, their remains completely erased.

With the colossal beast avatar breaking through to level 9, Chen Chu's physical body had become increasingly formidable. Combined with the twelvefold enhancement of the battle phantom, various abilities, and the power of the true dragon, his combat prowess had soared.

Under all these advantages, Chen Chu's typical combat strength was comparable to that of a beginning-stage Eighth Heavenly Realm expert despite him being at the beginning stage of the Seventh, crossing a major level.

With every movement, his strength rivaled that of an Eighth Realm warrior, and he could destroy an entire street with a single punch.

If he wielded the Eight Desolations Purgatory Halberd and ignited his battle will, his power would be even greater. Not to mention the formidable Battle Dragon Emperor form.

Strands of black and purple mist appeared, drifting toward Chen Chu and forming purple energy streams around him, each half a meter long and as thick as a thumb. Meanwhile, the sub-eye on his smartwatch displayed the number 93.

Chen Chu glanced at the surrounding purple murderous aura, then focused on the number, pondering deeply.

Among the monsters he had just fought, there were forty-five in total. Two were at the middle stage of the Sixth Heavenly Realm, while the rest were at the early stage of the Fifth, with a few at the middle and late stage.

According to the calculations for the Purple Spirit, a Fifth Heavenly Realm monster should be worth between 1 to 3 points, and a middle-stage Sixth Realm monster should be around 10 to 30 points.

The king had mentioned that the minimum requirement to step into the path of divinity was 1000 points of Purple Spirit.

With this in mind, Chen Chu’s face broke into a faint smile. This requirement posed no difficulty for him at all; he could easily accumulate the necessary points by simply killing a few level 7 void monsters.

In a good mood, Chen Chu’s gaze fell on the surrounding purple-black mist, and he curiously reached out. "What is this Purple Spirit?"

Hmm?!

As soon as Chen Chu’s hand touched the purple-black mist, a sucking force emerged from his eyes. Some special energy flowed through his arm into his eyes, absorbed by the Double Void Pupils.

Chen Chu’s eyes widened in surprise. "My eyes... seem to have become stronger!"

After absorbing the special energy carried by the purple-black mist, he could clearly sense that the power of his Double Pupil had increased slightly.

This enhancement was unique—not a level increase in ability, nor a surge in void energy, but a special form of empowerment.

Realizing this, Chen Chu summoned his attribute page with a thought.

Ability: Double Void Pupils +45 [Top-level, Eyes containing void energy.

Passive: Void Devouring

A unique principle power of the void. Each time a void monster is killed and a trace of void energy is absorbed, one point of life's principle-reversing void enhancement is gained.

Each point of enhancement increases damage by one-thousandth, with no upper limit.

Note: Only the possessor of the Double Void Pupils can absorb power and gain enhancement from killing void monsters.]

Looking at the updated note on the ability, even Chen Chu was somewhat astonished.

An enhancement of one-thousandth per point didn’t sound very powerful, but the key was there being no upper limit.

This was even more outrageous than stacking moves in a game—each kill of a void life form added another layer.

Without an upper limit, if he killed tens of thousands of void monsters, wouldn’t the Double Pupil’s power increase by several dozen times?
