Chapter 166: Guardian Draconic Beast, Mythical Domain (II)

After devouring that level 7 whale, not only did his avatar experience significant growth, but his four major attributes had also increased by 32 points, showing a dramatic improvement.

Feeling happy, Chen Chu reached for the thermos cup placed nearby and took a sip of tea. Savoring the faint sweetness and bitterness on his lips, he subconsciously compared it to the taste of the metallic meat he had eaten earlier.

Then he realized, the taste of raw meat from high-level mutated beasts seemed quite good too.

What am I thinking? Chen Chu shook his head, pushing aside the strange thought. He then gazed at the distant skyscrapers, suddenly feeling a profound sense of dissonance.

He couldn't shake the feeling that the savage and ferocious mutated beasts, including the terrifying creatures of the deep sea, were completely inconsistent with the civilized and bustling scene before him.

Yet, these were the stark realities. This wasn’t even factoring in the students studying true martial arts like him. The martial arts schools had recently started live streaming performances to gain popularity.

Which also went to show how intertwined the entertainment industry had become with cultivation. Some sci-fi movies featuring mutated beasts didn't rely much on special effects or backgrounds; instead, they simply captured level 3 mutated beasts to use as props.

The martial arts choreographers on these sets were reputed to be experts from martial arts schools, and many of the current hot celebrities were said to have average talent, only reaching the First or Second Heavenly Realm after completing high school.

There were no universities for martials arts, but there were still universities for academics. Students with average talent often couldn’t graduate from the martial arts course after three years, so they typically transferred back to the academic course to pursue entrance into universities or celebrity careers.

Thus, the fight scenes in these movies were genuine, combined with realistic props and choreography that enthralled ordinary viewers. Even Chen Chu's mother had recently taken a keen interest in sci-fi and fantasy movies because of his cultivation.

Just as Chen Chu became more and more aware of this disparity, he suddenly frowned.

Underneath a hundred meters of seawater, several dozen kilometers from the deep-sea valley, the Thunder Beast paused and lowered its head slightly to look at its neck. It then reached out its massive claw and tapped the snakeskin bag.

The disturbance caused a dead silver fish to float out from the bag’s mouth. Not only was it dead, but the body was also visibly decomposing at a speed discernible to the naked eye. In just a moment, its body liquefied and merged into the surrounding seawater.

That is a very strong symbiosis. No wonder these fish don't leave that valley even when they're getting eaten, the Thunder Beast lamented.

"What a pity." Chen Chu, seated cross-legged on the veranda, also had a look of regret in his eyes. Indeed, there were no perfect things in this world.

With that thought, Chen Chu slowly closed his eyes once again, sinking back into his cultivation state.

Whoosh!

Accompanied by the powerful rotation of the Dragon Elephant True Power, a strong suction emanated from Chen Chu's body, drawing in transcendent energy from the surrounding dozen meters.

As the true power absorbed the transcendent energy, Chen Chu's consciousness immersed itself in his sea of knowledge, refining his will as he contemplated the aura emitted by the Dragon Elephant Phantom.

After reaching the Fourth Heavenly Realm, cultivators not only continued to refine their true power, but also sought to comprehend the true essence of their practiced true martial arts and condense their willpower.

It was only when their true power reached its peak at the Fourth Heavenly Realm and merged with their will that they would be able to break through to the Fifth. The so-called willpower was similar to the psychic power Chen Chu had cultivated with the Insightful Eye Realm, a special power inspired by colossal beasts.

When a creature evolved into a king-level colossal beast, it would naturally form a domain covering an area of over a kilometer.

If their ability was fire-based, a blazing world would form around the colossal beast, incinerating everything, turning the earth into magma, and making ordinary missiles explode before they could even get close; if the ability was frost-based, an icy zone would form around the colossal beast, freezing everything.

This was the terror of mythical colossal beasts. After witnessing the power emanating from the colossal beasts and their influence on the surrounding world, the pioneers created high-level martial arts that incorporated the cultivation of will.

When a cultivator reached the Seventh Heavenly Realm, their will would have grown strong enough to be able to manipulate matter. Combining that with their true power would manifest True Martial Phantoms, allowing them to control the power of heaven and earth and resulting in a tremendous increase in combat power.

Upon reaching the Ninth Heavenly Realm, they could condense a domain of principles similar to that of mythical colossal beasts, gradually becoming divine and superhuman.

Chen Chu was still far from all of this. He had only just broken through to the Fourth Heavenly Realm and begun to explore the cultivation of willpower. However, perhaps due to his previous cultivation of the Insightful Eye and experiences with condensing runes, he made rapid progress in comprehending the Dragon Elephant Phantom.

He was immersed in his cultivation, practicing until nearly dusk. Suddenly, his phone vibrated, indicating that someone had mentioned him.

Chen Chu slowly opened his eyes and looked at his phone, finding that it was the group chat.

Xia Youhui: Hahaha... Ah Chu, I finally made it out alive! Let's celebrate my survival on the battlefield for the great Lord Xia.

Chen Chu: Old Xia, why did you end up on the battlefield?

Although it was called a battlefield, the actual battlefield was quite far from where the martial arts students trained, specifically guarded by military units.

Xia Youhui: Haha, of course.

Xia Youhui: This time, I made a name for myself in the battle against mutated beasts, overwhelming everything in my path. After consolidating my cultivation, I might break through to the late stage of the Third Heavenly Realm soon.

Xia Youhui had been in the Third Heavenly Realm for over three months now, and had reached the middle stage just before departing for the mutated beast battlefield at the beginning of the year.

Despite his unassuming demeanor, he was a genius who had achieved his first physique transformation around the same time as Li Hao, with terrifying defensive capabilities. Of course, his remarkable progress was also largely due to the high-quality resources provided by his elder brother.

Chen Chu: So, you haven't broken through to the late stage of the Third Heavenly Realm yet.

Xia Youhui: I feel like it's coming soon.

Chen Chu wasn’t going to let him off easily, smiling faintly.

Chen Chu: How soon is 'soon?’

Xia Youhui: Cough! Let's put that aside for now, Ah Chu. I'll upload a video for you so you can see the excitement of the mutated beast battlefield.

Xia Youhui: I got lucky this time. The major in charge of communications at the military base knows my brother, so I could use the military hotline to contact you. Hehe.

With that, Xia Youhui eagerly began uploading a large video file, a process that would take over ten minutes just for the upload.
