Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast

As the conversation continued, golden ripples shimmered in the distance, and another legion, composed of dozens of warships, entered the field. At the same time, they noticed the golden crystal barrier of the Eternal Realm becoming increasingly dense, as if it were forming an impenetrable shell to seal everything inside.

At that moment, both the Divine King of Light and the demon gods were biding their time. Unaware of the Eternal Obliteration, Tyretis and the other demon gods sought to force the Eternal Divine Tree to exhaust more of its principle origin.

Meanwhile, the Divine King of Light was waiting for the crystal wall to reach its limit. Otherwise, given the strength of demon-god-level entities, even if this divine region collapsed and exploded, they still had the means to tear open the void and escape at the first moment.

As everyone waited in the tense silence, a powerful force suddenly erupted outside the crystal wall.

Boom!

The true form of a demon god that had been relentlessly suppressed by three divine kings exploded in an instant. The middle-stage demon god self-destructed, unleashing devastating principles that annihilated everything within a radius of ten thousand kilometers.

The blast even tore through the Eternal Divine Region itself. Its foundational principles trembled violently, causing the entire region to shake. Even the area governed by the core principle of the divine region revealed brief gaps from the immense shockwaves.

On the fringes of the battlefield where the Divine King of Light was locked in fierce combat, a beginning-stage demon god paused and looked toward a terrifying figure wielding a world-level weapon. "Your Majesty Karotis, Borgotis and the others can't hold on much longer. I wish to assist them."

The towering demon god, over twenty thousand meters tall with three heads and more than thirty arms, turned its icy gaze backward and gave a slight nod. "Go."

"Yes." The demon god bowed respectfully, then with a thunderous boom, shattered a golden rift behind him and charged out from the battlefield sealed by the Eternal Divine Tree's laws.

Aside from the Divine King of Light furrowing his brow slightly, none of the other demon gods, including Tyretis, paid much attention to his departure. Though demon gods were immensely powerful, a beginning-stage demon god offered little advantage in this clash.

It would be more useful for him to aid those resisting the Heavenly Feathered divine kings. Once the Divine King of Light was dealt with, they could return and systematically slaughter the remaining divine kings.

Among the three great Purgatory Empires, the Dark Morro Empire under the Great Demon God Tyretis also had two other demon gods—one in the late stage, the other in the middle stage—making it the most powerful.

Next was the Belvetan Empire, whose emperor was at the late stage of the demon god level, wielded a world-level weapon, and had reached peak demon-god-level strength, with two middle-stage demon gods under his command.

The beginning-stage demon god who had just left was from the Freymund Empire, whose ruler was also at the late stage and carried a world-level weapon.

The demon god whose principle-condensed true form had just been shattered belonged to the Belvetan Empire. It, alongside a middle-stage demon god from the Freymund Empire, had been surrounded and attacked by four divine kings. At the same time, the self-destructed demon god's body reformed, but its aura was weak to the extreme, having fallen back to the middle stage of the demon god level.

Unlike demon kings or great demon kings, whose true forms could be reconstructed simply by consuming origin, a demon god's principle-condensed true form was crucial, a fusion of principle and "world." If destroyed, it damaged the demon god's very foundation, and would require countless resources and time to restore.

"Shit!"

Within the golden barrier, Anstira and the others turned pale as they watched the demon god burst from the core of the divine region, wrapped in surging demonic qi as he charged toward the battlefield where the divine kings were.

Just moments ago, the four divine kings had severely injured one demon god in a 4-on-2 matchup, and were on the verge of delivering a killing blow. Now, however, with a third demon god joining the fray, they could hold off the Heavenly Feathered divine kings long enough for the other demon gods to intervene.

"Zhenwu, go assist King Shariel. Leave that demon god to me."

"No problem. Be careful."

Both Chen Chu and Heavenly King Zhenwu unleashed their world-shaking auras and sprang into action without hesitation.

"Open the barrier!" Bordea instantly responded as well, joining several chief gods in channeling the origin of the Heavenly Feathered Race to tear open a rift in the crystal wall's micro-world.

Boom! Boom!

The moment they crossed the golden barrier, Zhenwu's body expanded violently into a colossal golden-armored Zhenwu Dadi over ten thousand meters tall. With a black stone stele in hand, he lunged toward the battlefield. Chen Chu also revealed his thousand-meter-tall true form. With every step spanning over a thousand kilometers, he charged toward the demon god who distorted space.

Watching Chen Chu—still only at the beginning stage of the chief god level—dare to face off against a demon god head-on, Anstira and the other chief gods of the Heavenly Feathered Race, along with the forty mythical powerhouses behind them, were visibly shaken.

Anstira radiated dazzling divine light and turned back to the other chief gods and mythical-level beings. "Everyone, the Divine Might King of the human race is risking his life and facing a demon god to aid our people. Are we going to just stand here and watch?"

"That's right! We of the Heavenly Feathered Race are the true main force in this war. How can we retreat today?" Stirred by Chen Chu's example, all of the Heavenly Feathered chief gods and god-level warriors ignited with blazing battle will, casting aside every prior plan.

Even the millions of elite troops of the Heavenly Feathered Race looked toward the dozen battleships spread across the void and the figure charging through the rift toward the demon god with reverence and awe in their eyes.

"We cultivators fear no battle!"

"My lords, please lead us once more into battle against the Purgatory Demon Clan. We will fight to the death without retreat!"

The thunderous roar of millions shook the entire crystal micro-world. A surge of battle will pierced the heavens, and everyone's blood burned with fervor.

Just then, Heavenly King Xuanwu, Heavenly King Jiuyou, and Chen Wang all stepped forward to urgently stop Anstira and the others. "Everyone, calm yourselves. Our strength is too weak. Charging into a battlefield of demon-god-level beings wouldn't help them. It would only drag them down."

Anstira's expression was solemn. "We're well aware of the gap between us and the demon gods. But your Divine Might King..."

"Chen Chu is different. After stepping into the heavenly king level, his strength has already surpassed the limits of his realm. Holding off an ordinary demon god poses no issue for him."
