Mythical Era: I Evolved Into A Stellar-Level Beast

Chapter 502: Chapter 244: Battling the Level 9 Demon Ape_2

It had estimated that if it only consumed half a portion of the Life Energy from its Essence Blood, there would be no impact to its foundation or strength, and eating two Level 7 Colossuses would allow for recovery.

But if the consumption was too great, exceeding one portion of Essence Blood, even it would feel weak.

These were the experiences it had summed up during this period; there was no helping it, as that feeling of weakness deep inside, that empty sensation, was too uncomfortable.

As for creatures like the Silver Giant Dragon, they had also tried condensing Life Energy to feed the Purple Dragon Egg, hoping to encourage the generation of more Imperial-grade Life Essence.

But it disdained from absorbing any of it, as if this ‘little’ one disapproved of their Life Energy.

“Roar! Alright, I’m off to eat something to replenish myself, I’ll ‘charge’ you up next time,” Thunderflame Emperor Beast growled lowly, putting the Purple Dragon Egg, whose Aura of Life had been strengthened by a fraction, back in the lake.

The scorching magma, like a warm bed, provided some help to its hatching. Normally, the dragon egg also absorbed the fiery energy to strengthen itself.

Only, compared to the little energy it absorbed, more Life Energy was passing by with time.

Then, the condensed matter made of that Life Energy was devoured by the Tiger Flood Dragon, which was also the reason why that Ferocious Beast was able to grow to Level 9 and fully return to its ancestral form.

That Giant Beast was very clever, choosing not to directly devour this Dragon Egg-

Since it didn’t possess the ability to absorb genetic material and bloodline, swallowing the dragon egg would only be equivalent to consuming a nutrient-rich ‘resource’.

After all, it was just an egg, yet to even form a complete life form; it was so fearsome only because it contained an Inheritance of ‘rule’ power within.

Therefore, it was better to continually absorb Life Essence, enhancing its own bloodline until one day it could deplete the Dragon Egg of all its Life Energy.

Just as the Thunderflame Emperor Beast walked heavily past the side of the Ice Crystal Dragon Palace, an enormous dragon head emerged from the Earth Dragon King Hall, roaring excitedly.

Roar, Roar!! Thunderflame, are you going out?

The Deep Sea Dragon Turtle’s eyes revealed intense anticipation, as it had already been confined in the palace for several days, bored to the point of going moldy.

The Thunderflame Emperor Beast glanced at it and roared lowly, “How many Energy Conversion Runes have you condensed?”

Roar, Roar!! Twenty… no, nineteen… Roar! It seems like fifteen.

Under the watchful gaze of the Thunderflame Emperor Beast, the Deep Sea Dragon Turtle, which originally wanted to say it had condensed twenty runes, skimped down its claim, eventually retreating sheepishly back into its shell.

In a bit more than a week, condensing fifteen runes wasn’t actually slow, especially since they, unlike the Thunderflame Emperor Beast, didn’t systematically learn or have experiences.

And slow was only at the beginning; condensing their first rune might have taken them two or three days, but then it would get faster and faster.

“Roar! The task quantity remains unchanged; you’re not allowed to leave the Dragon Palace until you’ve condensed twenty runes,” the Thunderflame Emperor Beast growled, and the Single-horned Tiger Kingfish, which had poked its head out of the water, also withdrew guiltily.

As for the Silver Giant Dragon and the Nine-headed Flood Dragon, they didn’t require supervision from the Thunderflame Emperor Beast.

One was striving to catch up with the Thunderflame Emperor Beast and diligently cultivating, while the other had its eight heads taking turns to sleep, sleeping soundly.

Amidst the explosion of sea spray, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast burst out of the underwater Dragon Palace, watched by four Mutated Tiger Whales and amid the bootlicking of the Blue Giant Crab.

Upon leaving the Dragon Palace, the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon briefly discerned the direction and immediately, with golden flames erupting behind it, vanished beneath the deep sea.

While the Single-horned Tiger Kingfish roamed the sea, according to the demands of the Thunderflame Emperor Beast, it remembered several locations where it sensed the Aura of the Level 9 Giant Beasts.

At the moment, the direction the Thunderflame Emperor Beast swam towards was one where a Level 9 Giant Beast resided.

According to the Single-horned Tiger Kingfish’s previous sensing, the Aura that the Giant Beast carelessly emitted was slightly stronger than the Ancient Tiger Flood Dragon, but not excessively so.

The pitch-black deep sea was deathly still, when suddenly dazzling golden Radiance exploded below the water. Immediately after, the scorching shock of waves and thunderous reverberations echoed through.

Clenching a Level 7 Colossus that looked like a Dragon in its claw, recently killed, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast trailed fiery waves behind him, devouring while on the move.

By now, encountering Level 7 Colossuses that used to prompt the Thunderflame Emperor Beast to be on full alert was no different than encountering chicks; nearly every encounter resulted in an instant kill.

About three hours later, having traversed over a thousand kilometers, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast arrived near its target and sensed the powerful Aura of the Level 9 Giant Beast from afar.

The intangible Aura spread out over a hundred kilometers, fitting the presence of a Level 9 Giant Beast—domineering and gratifying. “I like it,” the Thunderflame Emperor Beast said with a slight upward curl of its mouth, appearing quite ferocious.

An Aura like this was good, allowing it to discover and estimate its chances beforehand.

If it encountered an Early Stage Level 9 Giant Beast that it could defeat, it would attack; if it sensed a Peak Level 9 Aura that it couldn’t defeat, it would run.

Actually, the practice ingrained in the genes of Level 9 Giant Beasts to release their Aura is quite normal; under the intimidation of the Aura, other Giant Beasts of the same level would normally leave automatically upon sensing it.

Unless it was for an territorial dispute, they would not approach upon sensing an Aura of the same level.

After all, an Aura is an Aura, and combat power is combat power. Without full confidence, Level 9 Giant Beasts wouldn’t generally engage in fights to avoid injuries that could affect their growth.

Especially since most battles are not worth the bloodshed if winning wouldn’t bring much gain.

As for resources, anything edible would have already been consumed by the Giant Beasts that occupied the area, with just the Territory’s Heavenly Energy being a bit richer.

The Thunderflame Emperor Beast was an exception in this regard.

Soon, following the Aura, the Thunderflame Emperor Beast arrived at the Territory where the Level 9 Giant Beast was entrenched. It was an area enveloped in mist that covered tens of kilometers of sea surface..
