Chapter 739: The Awakening of the Titan-Level Dragon Emperor, Invasion of the Ancient Creature (II)

While Chen Chu accompanied the excited Zhang Xiaolan to pay respects at the grave, in the mythical world, a violent tremor rocked the heavens and earth.

Boom!

A ten-thousand-meter-high mountain range, its brown, metallic-looking peaks stretching dozens of kilometers across, shook violently and began to collapse.

Amid the quaking mountains and crumbling ground, the ancient creature briefly paused before surging forward once more, white shockwaves billowing in its wake.

However, just as it broke through the mountain range, the land ahead trembled again. With a thunderous rumble, another yellow-brown mountain range rose from the ground, blocking its path.

To the ancient creature—twenty kilometers long with limbs that spanned fifteen kilometers—this ten-thousand-meter-high peak was no more than a pile of dirt. Its colossal body rammed forward without hesitation.

Boom!

The heavens and earth trembled. Mountains shattered. The sheer force of the collision caused the entire range to collapse. Peaks crumbled, boulders exploded, and a cloud of dust surged skyward.

Still, the rocky mountains had managed to stall the ancient creature's momentum.

Roar!

After being endlessly obstructed, the instinct-driven ancient creature finally let out a furious roar, then slowly turned its head to the side.

Thousands of kilometers away, a crystalline red colossal dragon, over 2,800 meters long with wings spanning several kilometers, stood towering above the earth. Around it shimmered the phantoms of landforms, exuding a late-stage titan level aura.

Most importantly, this dragon's aura was completely fused with the surrounding world. Every movement stirred the power of heaven and earth across hundreds of thousands of kilometers. Its strength was comparable to the peak of the titan level.

Sensing that seamless connection between the dragon and the world itself, the ancient creature eventually turned its head back and resumed its advance. Wherever it passed, the earth quaked and the mountains split apart.

As the fog-shrouded creature disappeared into the distance, the crystal-red dragon let out a low growl.

Adrienna, this is as much as I can do for you.

A mighty will descended from afar and formed the phantom of the Azure-White Colossal Dragon. It growled back softly.

That’s enough.

Though it didn’t yet know what this ancient creature's purpose was, the two had always been enemies. So when the creature attempted to pass near its territory, the Azure-White Dragon had raised icebergs one after another to block its path.

Once the creature had skirted around its domain, the Azure-White Dragon summoned its friend, Thorsafi’s mother, to continue the intervention.

Thanks to the back-to-back interference of these two dragons, the ancient creature had taken nearly six days just to cross their territories and enter the Chaotic Region.

Within the raging Chaotic Region, the laws of heaven and earth were reversed and chaotic. Towering azure tornadoes slammed into the ancient creature's body one after another, only to instantly collapse and scatter.

Standing at the edge of a broken world, the ancient creature's massive gray stone-like eyes flickered with a strand of dark red energy, which morphed into the phantom of a transparent red orca.

Using the bloodline resonance between orcas, the ancient creature suddenly surged forward. Each step spanned several kilometers, and it swiftly crossed thousands of kilometers to reach the coastline.

Boom!

Its thick, seven-kilometer-long limbs crashed into the ocean, causing a colossal explosion. A thousand-meter-high tsunami erupted and surged in every direction, while mutated creatures across hundreds of kilometers fled in terror.

The creature’s head reached the cloud layer, and even the three-thousand-meter-deep seawater only came up to its knees. As it moved, it stirred rolling white shockwaves that blasted out with a thunderous roar.

This was a lifeform that had once reached the peak of the ancient titan level. The moment a sliver of this creature’s will reawakened, there were countless ways for it to track down the Destructive Dragon Emperor, even after its aura had changed.

After corrupting a colossal beast into a puppet to extract information about the Dragon Emperor, and then using the bloodline power it obtained from Hu Yi and Hu Er, the creature eventually traced its way to the Chaotic Sea Region.

Thousands of meters beneath the sea, the waters were pitch-black and icy cold. There, coiled atop a small underwater hill, slept a colossal serpent over 150 meters long, its entire body clad in shimmering azure scales.

Clusters of green crystals glowed faintly beneath its body, radiating dense energy that was inhaled and exhaled with the serpent’s every breath.

An even denser wave of blackness silently crept in from the shadows, engulfing both the azure serpent and its little hilltop without a sound. The glowing green crystals instantly dimmed and died.

Roar!

The serpent suddenly let out a startled, enraged bellow. Azure light surged from its body, erupting outward in all directions as countless sharp thorn-like projections burst forth.

Just then, a grotesque mouth, like a black hole, materialized in the darkness. It radiated a suction force capable of swallowing the sky and earth as it bit down.

Boom!

The sea exploded. Half of the serpent's corpse drifted down through the darkness with shattered flesh and blood. At the same time, the silhouette of a female orca emerged.

Scarlet blood sprayed from the serpent’s corpse, staining the surrounding seawater a deep crimson. Amid the heavy scent of blood, the female orca slowly approached the mutilated body.

Crunch!

With a sharp tear at the serpent’s neck, a golden level 8 Life Crystal surfaced from within the mangled flesh, pulsing with a rich life aura.

The orca’s eyes gleamed with satisfaction. Another high-grade Life Crystal collected for her king.

With a gentle current, she swept the Life Crystal into the subspace within her body. Then, with a single gulp, she devoured the remaining half of the serpent.

However, just as she swallowed it, she suddenly turned her head sharply. From the distant horizon, an overwhelming aura came crashing down like a tidal wave, the unseen pressure making her tremble instinctively.

A terrifying colossal beast was approaching fast.

Boom!

The ocean burst apart. The female orca transformed into a black-and-white blur, darting to the side at insane speed. In the blink of an eye, she had fled dozens of kilometers, trying to evade the approaching horror.

Almost immediately, her eyes widened in shock. The creature had adjusted its direction—it was chasing her.

That unspeakable pressure grew even more oppressive. The orca swerved again, this time activating her dark domain and cloaking her aura as she dove thousands of meters deeper into the seafloor.

Yet the pulses of force through the water only grew stronger. The monstrous aura was closing in at astonishing speed.

Bang!

The sea surface exploded upward. The 150-meter-long female orca breached the surface and looked back, only to be seized by terror.

Over two hundred kilometers behind her, a mountain-sized colossal beast was approaching, its body half-submerged, half-shrouded in clouds, and covered in stone-like plating.

Wherever it went, the sea detonated around it. Tsunamis thousands of meters high surged out in every direction, and its breath exhaled mist, engulfing the world in clouds.

Wooooooo...

The orca let out a long, horn-like cry and released all her power in an instant, transforming into a black-and-white blade that tore through the waves.

However, she didn’t flee toward the rift world. Even though the Dragon Emperor was strong, this mountain-like creature was even more terrifying. She was certain that not even the king could defeat it, and she dared not lead it back.

Otherwise, not just her, but her mate, Big Horn, and even her third son would all die.

Just as the orca resolved to lure the beast away and sacrifice herself, the sea ahead erupted again. A brown rocky peak, like a floating island, suddenly rose from the waters.

The Deep Sea Dragon Turtle poked its head out, looking at the oncoming orca and the towering tsunami behind her. It let out a roar of alarm when it saw the massive form shrouding the sky.

Horn Hime! What’s going on? What’s that thing chasing you?!

Sensing the crushing aura drawing closer, the female orca let out a panicked cry.

Baxia, go! In the opposite direction! That thing’s after me; I can’t escape it!

The Dragon Turtle paddled its limbs and roared behind her.

Horn Hime, you’re trying to lure it away?!

Yes! I’m going to lead it elsewhere! If it hits the rift world, everyone will be in danger!

The Dragon Turtle glanced behind it. That slow-moving yet increasingly close colossal creature filled it with dread, and it growled anxiously.

You can’t outrun that beast. It’ll eat you in one bite! Let’s go find Thunder Fiery!

However, the fleeing orca shook her head and cried out firmly.

No! If we bring it back, the king will be in danger, too, and so will Big Horn!

Roar! Idiot! Thunder Fiery is invincible! Come on!

Boom!

The Dragon Turtle rammed into the orca’s side with a thunderous crash, knocking her over a thousand meters away directly toward the rift world.

Squeak! But—

Boom!

Just as the female orca tried to argue, she was slammed once again by the Dragon Turtle’s heavy, armored shell, sent flying through an explosive blast of seawater. She was hurled several kilometers, crashing into the ocean and sending towering sprays of water into the air as the Dragon Turtle roared.

You’re Big Horn’s wife! If you die, how am I supposed to explain that to him? Relax! Thunder Fiery is invincible! He’ll blast that thing to pieces! It actually dares to mess with a beast from the Dragon Palace—clearly looking for death!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The distant sea erupted again, and nine ferocious dragon heads emerged from the waves.

Seeing the Dragon Turtle knock the orca away, Ghidorah’s nine heads swayed with chaotic growls.

Baxia, why are you hitting Big Horn’s wife? Aren’t you afraid he’ll fight you to the death?

Fight my ass! Just run!

With that roar, the Dragon Turtle and the female orca stirred up a raging wave and thundered past the Serpent, drenching all nine of its faces with a surge of seawater.

The three colossal beasts had originally been out hunting high-level mutated beasts separately, collecting Life Crystals for the Dragon Emperor, but hadn’t gone far from one another.

Now, the Serpent finally noticed the mountain-sized silhouette over a hundred kilometers away. A massive pressure swept over it instantly, making its entire body tremble and its growls shaky.

W-What is that creature? How can it be so massive?!

Don’t waste time wondering. Run, Ghidorah!

The Dragon Turtle bellowed back.

Wait for me!

Ghidorah snapped out of it, all nine heads flailing wildly. Its tail spun like a propeller, launching it forward like a torpedo.

As a serpent-type creature, the Serpent was incredibly fast underwater. In moments, it had caught up to the other two beasts, letting out a chaotic roar.

What the hell did you do to provoke that thing?!

The female orca, having given up on her suicidal plan, cried out.

It wasn’t me! That thing seems to be targeting me!

Immediately, all nine pairs of the Serpent’s eyes flashed with murderous intent.

It's asking for death! Let’s go back and get Ao Ba to kill it. It actually dared to pick on a beast from the Dragon Palace!

Like the Dragon Turtle, Ghidorah also had blind confidence in the Dragon Emperor, convinced that no matter how terrifying that mountain-sized creature looked, it wouldn’t be a match.

Sure, the Dragon Emperor was only a bit over a thousand meters long, but so what? It was the invincible Ao Ba.
