Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast-Chapter 452: Ruling the World, Great and Profound (II)

As Chen Chu marched forward, others were also advancing steadily.

Within an hour, over twenty people had crossed the path of the pinnacle, signaling that they all possessed the potential of at least the Ninth Heavenly Realm.

The top-level geniuses didn’t disappoint either. Gabriella from West Meng continued to forge ahead even after entering the second stage, the path of kings.

[Array data analysis in progress. Consciousness linked. Supercomputer calculation activated...]

In front of an ancient golden battle puppet, forty meters tall and radiating the aura of the beginning stage of the Seventh Heavenly Realm, a complex, humanoid three-dimensional figure rotated slowly in the air.

Not far away, Gabriella's black-and-white mech stood tall, with its eyes shooting out beams of scanning light that enveloped the figure, performing calculations and analysis.

With her consciousness linked to a supercomputer, Gabriella’s computing power had reached astounding levels. Combined with her self-invented data computation array, image scanning, and lightwave scanning systems, she had almost perfectly replicated the puppet's array before her.

While mech cultivators were generally weaker than those on the path of true martial arts when it came to the elusive comprehension of the world, they held an absolute advantage in computational prowess.

In less than ten minutes, Gabriella completed her analysis of the puppet’s rune array. Her spiritual will spread out, touching the core of the array in front of her.

Hum!

The rotating formation vibrated and rapidly expanded, transforming into a massive web of light that enveloped the Black Demon White King Mech. Instantly, the energy fluctuations from the mech doubled.

This was the correct way to walk the path of kings. Those who successfully comprehended the runes would gain a double enhancement from the rune’s power, allowing them to pass with even greater strength.

Of course, failure meant that the opponent would grow stronger. Few, like Chen Chu, would charge forward and directly break through by brute force...

Boom!

A massive battle erupted between the colossal mech and the ancient battle puppet.

While Gabriella advanced rapidly, the terrifyingly gifted An Fuqing, known for her insight, had stopped at the thousand-meter threshold on the path of kings.

In the center of the vast sea of bamboo, a figure radiating the aura of the middle stage of the Sixth Heavenly Realm sat with its back facing her, faintly emitting sharp sword will.

Between the king's projection and An Fuqing floated a three-meter-tall red rune, shaped like a sword. Inside it, chains of rune sequences slowly rotated.

Gazing at the blood-colored sword seal, An Fuqing's eyes flickered with light, and after just a few minutes, a look of surprise and joy appeared on her face.

This Blood Refinement Sword Seal was special; it could be etched into a sword through a process of blood refinement, granting the battle sword a function similar to that of a flying sword.

Thinking of this, the light on An Fuqing’s Sumeru Bracelet flickered, and four middle-level transcendent battle swords, each two meters long, appeared.

An Fuqing was rather poor. When Chen Chu left the southern battlefield, she had only had a low-level, ordinary transcendent battle sword.

Later, as the path to divinity was about to begin and the roster was finalized, everyone received a certain amount of resource allocation. For An Fuqing, it was these four middle-level transcendent battle swords.

An Fuqing grasped one of the swords by the hilt. With a slight swipe of her finger along the blade, bright red blood flowed out.

Using her blood as ink, her sword will as a brush, and true power as the medium, An Fuqing swiftly inscribed the complete Blood Refinement Sword Seal onto the battle sword, then infused it with true power.

Whoosh!

The blood on the battle sword radiated light and transformed into fierce blood-colored flames...

This was the purpose of the path of inheritance: to test challengers while also granting them suitable inheritances.

Chen Chu’s first opponent had been linked to flame runes, and later, he encountered five elemental runes, all of which were somewhat aligned with his attributes.

However, his attributes were too complex. His powerful physique also carried the divine might of the true dragon, with abilities in strength, defense, thunder, and fire, all intertwined.

"Why has An Fuqing been standing there for so long?" Xia Youhui asked in confusion.

Lin Xue also furrowed her brows. "Indeed, with An Fuqing’s comprehension talent, she shouldn’t be stuck there. Even Gabriella has reached 1,900 meters."

Suddenly, a scream echoed along the path to divinity. At the nine-hundred-meter mark, a genius from North Lin, who had transformed into a ten-meter-tall mutated beast, suddenly spat blood. The cloud beneath him scattered, and his entire figure fell, disappearing from sight.

The sudden turn of events shocked everyone. "This isn’t good."

"Karowi is dead!?"

The transparent Eye of the Sky transmitted Xie Chen’s calm voice. "Everyone, do not panic. He merely failed the trial and was ejected from the void."

As Xie Chen spoke, spatial distortions appeared on the ground below him. The North Lin genius crashed down with a thud, his pale face filled with bitterness.

After all, he hadn’t even managed to pass the path of the pinnacle.

As time passed, everyone continued advancing, and soon over two hours had passed, revealing the growing gaps between them.

Ji Wuji, Li Daoyi, and Bardas had already reached 2,300 meters. This was where Chen Chu had started. From here, they only needed to pass two more trials to complete the path of kings.

The second division consisted of Gabriella, who had just obtained another origin, Bredos, and two older generation geniuses. They were positioned at two thousand meters.

Between 1,000 and 1,500 meters, there were over forty people, including Lin Mei and Ji Changkong. These individuals had all passed the path of the pinnacle within an hour.

As for An Fuqing, she was still lingering at 1,600 meters.

As the trial progressed, on the later sections of the path of the pinnacle and the path of kings, clouds beneath the feet of several people occasionally dissipated, signifying their failure in the trial.

While everyone else was working hard, Chen Chu had already reached over five thousand meters, his silhouette almost entirely obscured by the swirling clouds high above and becoming increasingly indistinct.

"What does it mean to dominate an era? This is what it means! Hahaha... After this trial, Ah Chu will rightfully be the number one of our generation."

Watching Chen Chu pull farther ahead, Xia Youhui was incredibly excited, feeling immense pride for Chen Chu's accomplishments.

After all, this was his closest brother. With Chen Chu’s increasingly terrifying progress, Xia Youhui knew he had one more strong person to hold on to.

Thinking of this, Xia Youhui became even happier.

With two dependable people to rely on, and considering that he himself was also a genius, it seemed difficult for him not to become a king in this lifetime.

As Xia Youhui dreamed happily about his bright future, Lin Yu sighed softly. "Who would have thought that in just a little over half a year, he would grow to this extent?"

As she spoke, a memory surfaced—Bright Moon Lake, when she first met Chen Chu, a boy in a white t-shirt with a sunny and gentle smile.

This was her first encounter with Chen Chu. Before then, she had only heard Lin Xue mention him in passing.

Over three hours later, Chen Chu had reached 6,800 meters.

Beneath his feet, the path of clouds stretched deep into the void, surrounded by thick clouds. Only Xie Chen, Ji Yongning, and those who had been ejected from the ruins could still see him.

"This guy is a monster..." Fu Jiangtao’s gaze was complicated.

He had barely managed to pass the second trial on the path of kings, while this boy, who was two grades below him, kept pressing forward on the path of heavenly kings.

In the apocalyptic world, Chen Chu slowly opened his eyes. Within them, a blazing world of molten lava swirled.

He slightly turned his head, looking toward the colossal beast perched on the volcano’s crater. His eyes filled with intense battle will. "Crossing two major realms, huh?"

Boom!

Chen Chu leapt to his feet, a terrifying will erupting from his body. His tangible spiritual will coalesced behind him, forming the illusion of a molten world.

In that instant, the world trembled, and the heavens responded, summoning the power of the laws that governed this world.

Screech!

As the world shook, the Black Fiery Phoenix perched on the distant volcano awakened. It spread its wings in fury, unleashing an endless torrent of black flames as its cry echoed across the heavens.

Meanwhile, as the limitless power of laws descended, the phantom of the Battle Demon God behind Chen Chu continued to swell; in the blink of an eye, it expanded to a hundred meters tall.

"Not enough!" Feeling the pressure from deep within his soul, Chen Chu let out a long howl and merged with the phantom of the Battle Demon God.

Boom!

With the arrival of an even more overwhelming power of laws, the Battle Demon God, the manifestation of Chen Chu's soul, kept expanding—two hundred meters, three hundred meters...
