Chapter 308: Supreme Ferocious Beast, Colossal Beast Emperor, Gazing at the Essence (I)

Crack, crack!

The Thunder Fiery Colossal Beast's form continuously stretched, with its cells frantically splitting and compressing. Its muscles grew more robust and bulging, exuding explosive power.

Its neck became thicker and more powerful, and its head slightly deformed to appear even more ferocious. The brow ridge jutted out, and the short, black horns on its head lengthened and sharpened, resembling a mane.

As its body transformed, the thick black and red scales across its body stretched and deformed, becoming more angular and protruding like blades. Simultaneously, barbs grew backward from its claws and leg joints, while a row of heavy bone spikes emerged from its shoulders, with flames faintly flickering within.

The dorsal fin, which had previously evolved from a row of sharp spines to a mix of thick and thin coral, now became sharp once again, now even thicker than the Sword Armored Beast’s dorsal spikes from its third evolution.

Additionally, new black and red spikes sprouted along the sides of the dorsal fin, forming three rows that extended all the way to its tail and merged with the segmented scales there.

It looked as though an extra blade composed of three rows of sharp spikes had formed along its tail. The sword-like spikes at the tail's tip also became sharper and thicker, akin to a sword and radiating a sharp aura, yet as heavy and suitable for chopping as a blade.

These were merely the external changes. Inside the Thunder Fiery Beast, the top-level Defense and top-level Strength remained unshaken, while the Thunderbolt and Golden Flames roared wildly.

Endless golden energy churned within its flesh, transforming into pure golden fire and emitting a temperature high enough to scorch the heavens and boil the seas.

At the same time, the electric cells in its dorsal fin also divided and mutated frantically. Each cell’s core seemingly transformed into pure lightning, as if they were no longer cells but thunderbolts themselves.

The energy was so powerful that the three rows of dorsal fins glowed like high-wattage light bulbs, emitting deep blue light, with arcs of deep blue electricity crackling and popping.

Moreover, the previously low-level abilities of Regeneration and Toxin underwent dramatic changes, transforming from substances circulating in its flesh into energy-based abilities.

The Toxin merged with the Golden Flames, its green energy igniting like oil on fire and becoming even more explosively hot. Regeneration and Agility also merged, allowing the Thunder Beast’s explosive agility to achieve multiple bursts before needing a pause, compared to the previous two.

On land, it could instantly cover thirty times its body length, and underwater, twenty times, with explosive agility. However, this exerted great strain and damage on its body, causing joint and muscle dissolution after each burst that necessitated a pause for recovery. But now...

The Thunder Beast’s eyes swept over the colossal beasts, and it growled. Roar! This time, while comprehending my own power and deducing the runes, I triggered a second growth.

Squeak, squeak, squeak! I want to grow too, Thunder Fiery, you look so formidable.

The Kun's eyes shone with envy.

The Thunder Beast growled. Roar! If you want a second growth, it's simple. Comprehend your abilities to the limit and understand the essence of your own power.

Roar, roar, roar! Ao Ba, how to comprehend, what is comprehend? The Serpent's nine heads showed confusion, as did the Kun and the Dragon Turtle.

Roar! Comprehending means self-reflection. For example, Saixitia, have you ever wondered how your Ice ability is generated? Why does it form ice? What's the principle behind it, and why isn't it just water?

The Thunder Beast’s words left the Silver Dragon momentarily stunned, as it had never considered such questions. From birth until now, it had either been eating, sleeping, or flying around its mother's territory without a care in the world.

It had naturally mastered its abilities and powers due to the spiritual mark from its bloodline, instinctively knowing how to use and unleash them and growing stronger with each level.

Roar! At present, Big Horn, Baxia, you both will soon have an opportunity to comprehend the essence of your power.

Roar! When transcendent creatures break through to level 8, there will be a process of manifesting runes within their innate abilities, fundamentally revealing the essence of their own power to you.

Immediately, the Kun's eyes lit up, as it squeaked with excitement. Squeak, squeak, squeak! So I'm about to become monstrous too, how exciting!

The Dragon Turtle also roared excitedly. Roar, roar! So that's how it is, as long as we break through, we can be as mighty as you, Thunder Fiery.

Squeak, squeak, squeak! But Thunder Fiery, we feel like it will take us a long time to break through.

The Kun's eyes showed distress. Although they had touched the threshold of level 8, they felt they still needed a long time to completely step into it.
