Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast

As Chen Chu opened his Double Void Pupil, void energy erupted explosively from him, twisting space and time, forming a pitch-black void that engulfed the entire underground.

Within the darkness, a massive black-and-gold pupil emerged, like the manifestation of the Heavenly Dao ruling over the void, its gaze icy cold.

Under the gaze of the Double Void Pupil, empowered sixteenfold by the principle of the void, even space and time froze. An invisible force surged forth, suspending Ikosela in midair.

At the same time, a massive gray gate opened within the black-and-gold pupil, unleashing an endless torrent of gray death energy.

Bathed in the origin of the Law of Death, the remnants of Ikosela's true form, which had been blasted into a bloody mist, rapidly lost all vitality.

Even its abyssal divine soul, tempered through its origin principle until it became nearly tangible, began to dim and fade at a terrifying speed.

"How could I possibly die here?" Under the crushing pressure of this unprecedented death aura, Ikosela's divine soul let out a furious roar.

Madness flashed in its eyes as it chanted aloud, "I offer everything! Let me fall into the abyss forever and embrace the darkness!"

"I am willing to become an Abyssal Demon God, to devour all things for the supreme will of the abyss. I summon you, O great and dark abyssal world..."

Boom!

The void world formed from Chen Chu's Law of Void trembled violently. Half of it shattered, and endless dark red light seeped through, transforming into a terrifying abyss.

The Supreme Abyss had descended.

This abyssal world was not like the ones refined by Tyretis, Zuo Mo, and other demons. It was the true Supreme Abyss, a terrifying world equal in power to the Supreme Hell controlled by Chen Chu.

Normally, the Purgatory Clan, who wielded the power of the abyss, could grant certain gifted true demons and nobles access to tap into the power of the abyss.

Some particularly talented demon kings, great demon kings, and even demon gods were also qualified to command the abyssal force.

However, becoming a proxy of the supreme planes and drawing upon the supreme power came at a cost. As the saying goes, when you take from the abyss, the abyss also takes from you.

Once these demon kings became too deeply entangled with the abyss, they were eventually devoured by it.

That was why, at the level of great demon kings and above, many began breaking free of the abyss. The abyssal principles and abyssal worlds they condensed belonged solely to them.

It was similar to human cultivators. While they drew transcendent energy from the mythical world during their cultivation, they would eventually condense a personal law-bound world upon reaching the heavenly king level. After breaking through to the supreme level, the world shaped by their principles became fully their own, separate from the mythical world.

While giving up the power of the supreme planes meant the true demons' abyssal principles were slightly weaker, they gained relative freedom in return.

After all, anyone who could reach the level of a demon god possessed exceptional talent and unmatched pride. These individuals were peerless freaks with lofty ambitions, never willing to live under someone else's rule.

But at this moment, faced with the threat of death, this demon god chose to give up that freedom and offered everything to the Abyss. He willingly became an abyssal demon god.

"The Supreme Abyss..."

A low, rumbling voice echoed through the void. On Chen Chu's left, the Face of the Demon God slowly opened the blood-red Hell's Eye between its brow. In that instant, another terrifying power descended.

Above the void, a blood-colored rift tore open. Endless blood-red light surged out, flooding everything in sight and dyeing the pitch-black void a deep crimson.

Within the blood-colored light that radiated a sense of slaughter and carnage, a supreme world seemed to faintly descend. Empowered by its presence, Chen Chu's aura surged once more.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the powers of the two supreme planes collided, the void world formed by the Law of Void shattered instantly. The entire underground, ten thousand kilometers deep, trembled violently, and even space and time began to warp.

Above the crumbling earth, the sky across tens of thousands of kilometers was swallowed by the black-and-red Abyss and the blood-colored Hell.

The astonishing scene once again left Anstira and the other Heavenly Feathered warriors frozen in disbelief. They were shaken by how Chen Chu kept unleashing power beyond anything they had expected, each display revealing power stronger than the last.

Bordea looked toward Heavenly King Xuanwu with a hint of amazement. "I didn't expect the Divine Might King to be capable of drawing upon the power of the Supreme Hell."

Heavenly King Xuanwu gave a slight smile. "As a genius of our race, Chen Chu has always been blessed with great fortune."

"Still, the power of the supreme planes, as strong as it is, also carries risks. If possible, it's best not to rely on it. If you get the chance, remind the Divine Might King to be cautious," Bordea advised.

As one of the ancient civilizations, the Heavenly Feathered Race had also seen geniuses among their kind become apostles of the Hell Plane. They were no strangers to the power of the Supreme Hell.

While this supreme power was undeniably formidable and granted its wielder an additional high-level law, it also came with obvious drawbacks.

Back then, that genius of the Heavenly Feathered Race suddenly vanished one day after reaching the peak of the chief god level.

Even the records of the Eternal Divine Tree showed that he was in a strange state, somewhere between life and death. As a result, his life imprint could no longer be used to revive him.

It was as if some overwhelming force had seized and imprisoned him.

Heavenly King Xuanwu nodded solemnly. "Thank you for the reminder, Brother Bordea."

While Xuanwu and the others watched the battle with grim expressions, deep underground, nearly ten thousand kilometers below the surface, Chen Chu suddenly felt an immense pressure descend upon him.

Within the endless dark red abyssal world, a terrifying phantom the size of a planet slowly emerged. This was a phantom of the supreme will summoned by Ikosela through its offering.

The moment the phantom appeared, all three pairs of eyes on Chen Chu's face grew heavy with caution.

This terrifying phantom was incredibly powerful. The strength of its true form was even above the true spirit level. Just a single trace of its descending will was enough to make Chen Chu feel completely powerless to resist.

But so what? Today, no being would stop him from slaying this demon god.

"Get lost!"

With a thunderous roar, the black-and-gold pupil behind Chen Chu expanded. All the void energy stored within the Double Void Pupil was consumed in an instant.

Boom!

Under the gaze of the black-and-gold pupil, the abyssal world that covered half the region collapsed. From the destruction, a rift of black and purple tore open, stretching ten thousand kilometers long and unfathomably deep.

It was the ultimate power of the Void Death Pupils: Dimensional Exile.

This power tore open a dimensional rift that pierced through the endless void, banishing its target into a distant, unreachable place from which they could never return.

However, this move had its limitations. Enemies weaker than Chen Chu didn't require it, since he could kill them outright. And those stronger than him couldn't be banished, as their power would shatter the rift before it took effect.

For example, during the earlier battle against Deorus and the other demon gods, no matter how much void energy Chen Chu used, the dimensional rift he opened was crushed by the overwhelming force of their true forms.

But now, the enemy before him was merely a will projected by a terrifying being. It was only a void form wielding the power of the abyss.

Boom!

Chen Chu's black and purple dimensional rift unleashed a powerful suction, drawing in the towering phantom. The pulling force from the rift's endless depths triggered a furious roar from the will within the phantom.

Around the phantom, endless demonic qi surged, forming hundreds of towering dark red abyssal pillars. These pillars collapsed and reformed again and again, resisting the pull of the dimensional rift.

This supreme will was trying to use the abyssal demonic qi to seal the rift shut.

"Get in there."

Chen Chu burned the origin of the Law of Void within his body, turning it into roaring black flames that poured into the black-and-gold pupil. Then, under the intense gaze of the pupil, space and time around the phantom began to collapse.

Boom!

After burning the origin of a high-level law, the power of Void Collapse, which grew stronger along with Chen Chu's rising strength and evolving abilities, reached a terrifying level.

Even the will within the phantom standing in the abyssal world could not withstand it. The surrounding ten thousand kilometers of void shattered along with it.

With a final roar of shock and fury, the immortal-tinged will was devoured by Chen Chu's black-and-purple rift in an instant.

Pinned in the void, Ikosela's divine soul showed both despair and deep unwillingness in its eyes. It had never imagined that one day it would fall to a so-called beginning-stage great demon king from another race.

As the origin of the Law of Death continued to scour through it, Ikosela's divine soul grew weaker and weaker. Its disintegrating true form turned to black powder, vanishing into the void.

And because the battle had taken place ten thousand kilometers underground, shrouded in a high-pressure force field of twisted space, neither the two demon gods fighting Heavenly King Zhenwu, as well as the six demon gods at the center of the Eternal Divine Region's battlefield, noticed what was happening.

All they could sense was the ongoing clash between the powers of the Supreme Abyss and the Supreme Hell.

At the heart of the shattered ten-thousand-kilometer region, the ground had caved in. From the depths of a massive crater spanning over two thousand kilometers, blinding light and powerful energy erupted.

To kill this demon god, Chen Chu had used nearly every method at his disposal.

Compared to the Dragon Emperor, who crushed and tore through ancient colossal beasts with ease, it was much harder for Chen Chu to slay a demon god. These demon gods had more ways to survive and often fought alongside their allies.

Nearly an hour passed.

Boom!The abyssal plane above the sky suddenly collapsed, while the Supreme Hell flared with intense blood-colored light. Endless red light poured down, flooding and devouring the crumbling abyss.

Above the ruins of the abyssal world, a radiant Blood Moon rose, then slowly descended.

This shadow of the Blood Moon was massive, stretching over a thousand kilometers in diameter. The red light it gave off nearly illuminated the entire Eternal Realm.

At that moment, all the true demons, vassal races, demon kings, great demon kings, and even the eight demon gods scattered across the divine region turned their gazes toward the Blood Moon.

Shock, horror, and disbelief appeared in all of their eyes.

After all this time in the war between civilizations, the divine king of the Heavenly Feathered Race had yet to fall. Instead, it was their side that had lost a demon god first.

Even on the human side, Heavenly King Xuanwu, Heavenly King Jiuyou, Luo Fei, and the heavily injured Li Daoyi, who was lying in a battleship, were all stunned as they looked beyond the golden rift.

They stared at the place where the Blood Moon had appeared.

Li Daoyi, pale and trembling, couldn't believe what he was seeing. He nearly fell off his hospital bed in excitement. His lips trembled, and he could barely speak clearly.

"I... what the hell... what the hell!"

"Damn! My brother, Chen Chu, is insane! Hahahaha..." Li Daoyi burst into laughter and transformed into a flash of purple lightning, flying out of the battleship as he shouted.

"Everyone, did you see that? My brother, Chen Chu, the Divine Might King, just killed a demon god. You hear me? A demon god!"

And at that moment, it wasn't just Li Daoyi. Every cultivator aboard the thirteen battleships trembled slightly. Their expressions lit up with excitement, their faces flushed red with exhilaration.

Since the war between the human race and the Purgatory Clan began, their supreme-level and demon god-level warriors had fought for decades. Both sides had suffered injuries, but never had a demon god or supreme-level cultivator fallen.

No one expected that the first to slay a demon god wouldn't be the First Councilor, the strongest human, but Chen Chu.

"That's the Divine Might King for you!"

"He is invincible!"

Countless cultivators couldn't help but yell out in excitement.

While the humans cheered, those on the Heavenly Feathered Race's side were all stunned, eyes wide with shock. An individual only at the chief god level had counterattacked and killed a demon god? These humans were terrifying.

"So strong..." Anstira looked at the Blood Moon glowing in the distance. Even her flawless, beautiful face showed clear astonishment.

At this moment, the one who remained calm was Luo Fei, who was inside Mech No.1. Her gaze was cold, as if she stood beyond the world, silently watching the battle unfold beyond the rift in the crystalline wall.

While Chen Chu and Heavenly King Zhenwu engaged the demon gods, another mythical-level warrior of the Heavenly Feathered Race teleported in a new legion.

By now, nearly everyone on the evacuation list had arrived.
