Mythical Era: My Evolution into a Celestial Beast

Chapter 292: Family of The Heavenly Ghost, The Divine Might Dragon Elephant, Annihilated in One Punch (II)

Chen Chu and Li Daoyi exchanged glances. Suddenly, Chen Chu's voice grew cold. "Brother Li, use lightning to strike that statue."

Everyone present was taken aback. Ryuusuke's face changed slightly, and he said sternly, "Sir, that statue of the Great Heavenly Ghost has been our family’s guardian for centuries. What are you trying to do?"

As he spoke, a powerful surge of black true power erupted from him, like mighty flames burning fiercely from hell. Under the explosive aura of his late-stage Sixth Heavenly Realm power, the hall was soon filled with howling winds, and the ground cracked.

Outside the hall, Mikaze's eyes also showed anger. To them, attacking the statue of their deity was almost the same as killing their parents.

Boom!

Violet lightning surrounded Li Daoyi with jumping sparks. In an instant, a beam of purple lightning, as thick as an arm, twisted and flashed, its brilliance striking the statue of the Great Heavenly Ghost.

Bang!

Under the thunderbolt, the statue's head shattered, and wisps of black smoke drifted from the cracks, instantly filling the hall with a dreadful aura that was not of this world.

"A Purgatory demonic aura!" Chen Chu instantly appeared before Yan Ruoyi, his body engulfed in golden flames and his expression serious. He hadn’t expected that it wouldn’t be the Blood Cult this time, but something related to the Purgatory Clan.

Meanwhile, the lightning around Li Daoyi surged even more, crackling with thunderbolts that enveloped a five-meter radius. His long hair flowed without wind, resembling a deity wielding thunder.

His eyes flickered with lightning, his voice resonating with thunder. "I didn’t expect the aura belief wrapped around this statue was to suppress the demonic aura inside. You traitors, you all deserve to die."

Seeing that the truth had been exposed, Ryuusuke’s eyes slowly turned blood red, and a more menacing aura erupted from deep within him, his expression turning grim.

"I didn’t want to get involved in this matter. What does the daughter of a heavenly king have to do with me? Why must you force me? Today, you all must die!" he roared.

Amid an inhuman howl, Ryuusuke's body suddenly swelled, tearing his clothes apart, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a three-meter-tall demon god with red light surrounding his two horns.

In an instant, Ryuusuke's aura surged nearly tenfold, almost reaching the Seventh Heavenly Realm. The entire hall trembled under the fierce black and red flames of his demonic aura.

Ryuusuke growled, "Mikaze, don't let them escape. Activate the stone array."

"Yes, father!" With a low shout, Mikaze, still outside the door, slapped the stone pillar beside him.

Roar!

Suddenly, the roars of dragons and elephants shook the air with a majestic and domineering force, under which the entire world seemed to collapse under Chen Chu's punch.

Boom!

The Divine Might Elephant Fury, shining with golden light, revealed the body of a demon god. Mikaze, whose cultivation had surged from the beginning Fifth Heavenly Realm to the late Fifth, was instantly blown apart. The domineering punch continued its momentum, shattering half of the shrine's walls and buildings.

The air howled, and waves of energy rolled. Countless pieces of flesh mixed with broken bricks flew dozens of meters away, and smoke and dust filled half the square.

Everyone froze at that moment, including Li Daoyi, who had been about to make his move.

No, Brother, this is my turn. Stop showing off.

Facing Li Daoyi's resentful gaze, Chen Chu coldly retracted his fist. Although the guy hadn’t been very strong, he was clearly about to activate some long-prepared mechanism. In such a situation, it was best to destroy everything first. Even though he felt there wouldn't be any problems, he didn't like surprises.

"Ahh! I will kill you all!" Seeing his son instantly blown apart, Ryuusuke's eyes turned ferociously insane, and a massive ten-meter-tall demonic god shadow formed behind him with a surge of light.

"Your opponent is me." With a wave of Li Daoyi's hand, the surrounding lightning gathered into a giant purple thunder dragon, roaring as it collided with the demonic god.

Boom!

The explosion was like a missile detonation, and a dazzling black and purple destructive shockwave erupted. The shrine's roof collapsed, statues shattered, and a brilliant beam of light shot into the sky.

Amid the rumbling collapse of the shrine, golden flames leaped around Chen Chu, forming a powerful force field that covered a five-meter radius. The flying debris and explosive shockwaves were blocked by this domineering divine power, creating an impenetrable wall around him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the air and dust rolled, thick lightning bolts roared, and the demonic god howled. The two forces clashed and burst out of the half-collapsed shrine.

Sensing the violent aura outside, Chen Chu's expression was cold as he reached up to his ear and lightly pressed the side of his sunglasses. "The Yamaki family is connected to the Purgatory Clan. Seal off the mountain, leave no one alive."

"Understood!" As a resolute voice responded, dozens of figures waiting at the foot of the mountain surged up from all directions, each one emanating the aura of the Fifth Heavenly Realm.

In just a few breaths, these military experts encountered other members of the Yamaki family fleeing from the mountain, including a second-generation member trying to escape, and battles instantly erupted.

Inside the shattered main hall, Sakura, holding her katana, looked serious. "It turns out the Yamaki family really does have issues, and it's not just a simple case of betrayal."

"This seems to have been an accident." Chen Chu's gaze fell on the deity statue still emitting a faint black demonic aura, deep in thought. "They seem to have some connection with the Purgatory Clan. I can feel that this aura is somewhat different from Maximus's.

"And that strange demon form—before it was activated, even I couldn't sense anything unusual. It doesn't seem like a simple fusion; it’s more like a bloodline modification."

Chen Chu's eyes showed interest as he spoke, eager to capture a member of the Yamaki family for research.

Yan Ruoyi, whose expression remained calm amid the chaos, said softly, "They likely integrated Purgatory Demon essence, modifying themselves using arts similar to those from North Lin to transform into demons. But it's strange—where did they get the essence?"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At that moment, there was a distant roar. Like a demon god—no, more like a malevolent spirit—Ryuusuke shot toward them, his eyes fixed fiercely on Yan Ruoyi with the intent to take her hostage.

Ryuusuke looked extremely battered; many parts of his body were shattered by lightning, his aura was weak, and he was completely devoid of the ferocious dominance he had shown when he first transformed.

"Roar! Get out of my way!" Ryuusuke roared, swinging his right claw.

Endless black-red demonic aura surged, forming a gigantic demon claw that covered the entire hall. Under its dark power, the air collapsed within a dozen meters, and the floor tiles shattered.

"What gives you the right to provoke me?" With a deep voice, an immensely terrifying power erupted from Chen Chu. In an instant, golden light flashed, causing the already crumbling shrine to tremble and shake, as if an ancient colossal beast was awakening.

Roar!

Empowered by the Divine Might Dragon Elephant, his fist swung, and the entire world seemed to tremble under its horrifying dominance, causing the heavens and earth to sway. With a fearsome punch, the demon claw, large enough to cover the entire hall, instantly shattered.

The unparalleled dominance of the force caused Ryuusuke's face to change drastically, blood spraying from his mouth. His three-meter tall demonic form was blasted away by the fierce and peerless power of the punch.

At the same time, Chen Chu transformed into a golden light as he shot into the sky, his body enveloped in golden flames. He almost seemed to teleport as he grabbed Ryuusuke's face in mid-air with an open palm.

Immediately, the two descended from the sky.

Boom!

The forest trembled, and the ground within a radius of twenty meters shattered. Countless stones and clumps of soil were thrown into the air by the absolute power, forming rings of destructive shockwaves.

Seeing this massive impact, Sakura's face turned pale. She quickly shielded Yan Ruoyi from the violent wind and waves, especially the flying debris that resembled projectiles.

All of this had happened in an instant.

Far away, Li Daoyi was surrounded by lightning, his expression full of annoyance.

In his perception, the life aura of that elite monster named Yamaki Ryuusuke had already disappeared, obliterated by Chen Chu's single strike. Once again, he had failed to show off.
