C1586
Throughout the journey, the Chaos Roc took circuitous routes and concealed its presence by transforming into various shapes, all to avoid detection.
Upon finally encountering Yu Yuan, the Chaos Roc could no longer contain itself after being taunted by Yu Yuan's remarks and immediately flew into a rage.
In a fit of fury, it revealed its colossal true form.
The massive green fish, stretching for tens of thousands of miles, dwarfed even the Fallen Realm that Yu Yuan had traveled from. Its shimmering silver scales were broader than the lakes of the Great Swamp where Lvliu dwelled.
Its body was adorned with countless such scales.
Yu Yuan narrowed his eyes and observed that each scale on the Chaos Roc seemed to encompass its own unique body of water.
The sound of water, carrying a strange melody, echoed through the starry sky. Yu Yuan watched in amazement as the water energy within a hundred thousand miles grew exponentially.
He sensed that the Chaos Roc had endowed the water energy with a divine power, drawing it from the distant reaches of the starry sky.
This intrusion by the Chaos Roc transformed the starry sea into an enchanted aquatic realm in an instant.
In this miraculous domain, countless winding streams, lakes, and mighty rivers materialized from thin air.
Each water droplet appeared to hold a trace of the essence of life.
Water, one of the sources of life, Yu Yuan mused.
With keen intuition, he recognized that the Chaos Roc, in its fury, had unleashed the full potential of its core bloodline talent.
"Truly worthy of being a Starry Behemoth; I've underestimated you," he acknowledged.
Watching the myriad rivers and crystal-clear lakes brimming with rich water energy surge towards him, Yu Yuan gave a slight nod of approval.
He also noted that within the depths of these bodies of water, there mingled the power of iron, remnants of spinosaurus, and traces of deadly substances.
It appeared that the Chaos Roc was versed in other arcane talents and possessed even more wondrous bloodline abilities.
Upon reflection, Yu Yuan realized that the Chaos Roc, as a Starry Behemoth, had survived the test of time, likely having vanquished other Starry Behemoths in its past.
The era of the behemoths was marked by intense savagery and chaos, as they hunted and killed one another to plunder each other's bloodlines.
The Secular Bird, for instance, had acquired the Laws of Death and Destruction, elevating them alongside its foundational lineage.
The Chaos Roc might seem somewhat inferior, and as a result, the bloodlines it has acquired are likely weaker as well. Yet, the fact that it has managed to survive until now and locate the Origin Blood Continent suggests that it is not as feeble as it once believed itself to be. Unfortunately for the Chaos Roc, its blood has the ability to prolong the lives of powerful beings from other races, making it a target of misfortune. It is constantly besieged and harvested by these races, spending most of its time recovering from wounds.
Boom!
Yu Yuan nonchalantly tossed the Dragon Slash Platform into the air, where it began to expand rapidly within the mystical waters created by the Chaos Roc. Shrouded in a misty white glow, the platform swelled with an imposing majesty, as if it were growing within the very chaos itself. It was as though numerous dragons, imprisoned for eons, were suddenly emerging and roaring in defiance from within the platform.
In an incredibly brief moment, the elongated Dragon Slash Platform enlarged by billions of times. Layers of multicolored ripples, bearing the secrets of warped space and time, rippled out from beneath the platform. Concurrently, clusters of piercingly cold white mist dispersed, freezing many of the water droplets in the streams and rivers formed by the Chaos Roc, significantly slowing their flow.
Then, the sharp end of the Dragon Slash Platform burst forth with an intensely blinding golden radiance. The elongated platform, now spanning across the sky, abruptly shifted direction and thrust its golden edge towards the Chaos Roc below.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
The void was cleaved by the piercing light, and hundreds of luminous Space Light Blades, alongside the golden edge, descended like a multitude of sharp, pointed Holy Mountains, impaling the back of the Chaos Roc.
A blinding light burst forth from the Chaos Roc's back, where lakes, ponds, and deep pools filled with rich water energy, along with its blood infused with the essence of water, were all shattered and dispersed by the assault.
In agony, the Chaos Roc let out a shrill scream, craning its neck to snap at the Dragon Slash Platform.
Crack!
The previously unbreakable Dragon Slash Platform now bore the imprint of the Roc's teeth. Its mouth, vastly larger than that of any whale, bristled with sharp, metallic teeth. After adjusting its position, it clamped down once more with ferocity. The Chaos Roc was no fool; it deliberately avoided biting the end embedded with the Golden Giant Dragon, targeting instead the middle and rear sections of the platform.
The two sections of the Dragon Slash Platform were not as durable as the golden end, allowing him to leave bite marks.
He could channel the condensed water energy through these marks, flooding the interior of the Dragon Slash Platform with a deluge.
Inside the platform, a torrential downpour began.
It seemed as though the barrier of the Heavenly World Wall had sprung countless leaks, starting with a heavy rain that soon turned into cascading waterfalls, followed by a hundred-meter-wide lake pouring down.
"Wuwu!"
The Chaos Roc, firmly clamped onto the Dragon Slash Platform, made odd noises as it purposefully shook its head.
In comparison, Yu Yuan appeared insignificant, a mere speck of dust next to the massive creature.
"He's completely lost it."
Yu Yuan shook his head in disbelief.
To his surprise, the Chaos Roc's teeth had managed to leave impressions on two other parts of the Dragon Slash Platform, even creating tiny fissures.
Before these small cracks could seal, they were inundated with the waters of many rivers and lakes.
This confirmed Yu Yuan's belief that the Chaos Roc wasn't as weak as he had thought; it was simply unfortunate, often facing enemies many times its strength.
Or, it might encounter the formidable Demon Phoenix.
Moreover, it was frequently in a state of grave injury.
"It's futile. The water energy you release into the Dragon Slash Platform is snuffed out as soon as it enters. Any water Dao Law associated with you is immediately extinguished and erased by the platform."
Yu Yuan's expression was peculiar.
The Chaos Roc was overly optimistic, thinking it could use an infinite amount of water to flood the three miniature worlds within the Dragon Slash Platform, countering the residual power of the three Dragon God corpses to weaken or outright destroy the platform.
But this plan was far from practical.
"Rise!"
At Yu Yuan's command, the Yang God, concealed within his blood and Qi's tiny realm, burst forth.
The Yang God manifested once again, assuming a form identical to Yu Yuan's true body, not as numerous crystal-like stalactites or a Life Altar.
Yet, this Yang God, now separate from its original form, expanded instantly at Yu Yuan's will.
In an instant, the Yang God grew so immense it seemed capable of shouldering the sun and moon!
These celestial bodies, one crimson and one pearly white, were the very eyes of the Chaos Roc.
Indeed, they were the actual sun and moon he had refined, now integrated into the sockets of his eyes.
Although they weren't as immense as the actual sun and moon, they weren't ridiculously off the mark either.
The Yang God Yu Yuan, seemingly forged from innumerable divine crystals, resembled an ancient Titan gently grasping the unscathed sharp end of the Dragon Slash Platform that the Chaos Roc had not yet bitten.
His Yang God had grown to rival the Chaos Roc in stature. The back of his hand, clutching the Dragon Slash Platform, was larger than the entire Silvermoon Empire.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Countless streams of blood essence, like torrents of divine lightning, coursed through Yu Yuan's crystalline Yang God form, pouring into the palm of his hand gripping the Dragon Slash Platform.
He began to apply force slowly, seizing the Dragon Slash Platform and starting to swing it with ferocity.
Time and space turned topsy-turvy in the eyes of the Chaos Roc, as a formidable force that inspired awe and a sense of familiarity burst forth from the Dragon Slash Platform.
His teeth, stubbornly latched onto the platform, quickly developed cracks, and blood began to gush within his mouth.
His lifeblood, intricate with the essence of life and capable of prolonging the existence of countless races, spilled over the Dragon Slash Platform. It mingled with his essence of water and descended into the three miniature worlds within the platform.
With a wail, he was compelled to release his bite, reverting once again to a withered old man.
He continued to cough up blood.
...
"What is that?"
The White-robed Imperial Advisor, gazing from the distant Fallen Realm, observed the starry sea transformed into a mystical aquatic expanse. He watched the rivers and streams, and the Chaos Roc unleashing its bloodline might in the guise of a Starry Behemoth.
Suddenly, a Transcendence beyond his wildest imagination rose from the depths, standing tall in the galaxy.
The sun and moon stood side by side, with stars trailing behind like mere clay. The expanse of millions of miles seemed a mere few steps away...
Zhou Cangmin was taken aback.
The region that had morphed into a magical aquatic domain was, in fact, quite remote from the Fallen Realm. Yet the colossal forms of the Chaos Roc and Yu Yuan at this moment were simply overwhelming.
And so, he saw it.
The Chaos Roc had clearly not traversed through the Fallen Realm; otherwise, he would not have missed it. He also realized that before revealing its behemoth form, the Chaos Roc must have been concealed for some time.
It wasn't until the Chaos Roc erupted from the chaos, emerging in its colossal beast form, that he caught sight of it.
Initially, he was somewhat perplexed, considering Yu Yuan should be in the vicinity. He even planned to search for any signs of Yu Yuan...
Then, a towering Yu Yuan emerged before the world.
Most Unrestrained Stage cultivators of the Human Tribe could manifest their own dharma, each unique to the individual, though many resembled their physical form.
Yu Yuan's dharma manifestation signified his ascent to the Unrestrained Stage, which alone was enough to astonish Zhou Cangmin.
What was more astounding was that Yu Yuan's dharma appeared to be solely a transformation of the Yang God, without involving his true physical form.
But what shocked him to the core was the sheer size of Yu Yuan's dharma, matching that of the Chaos Roc!
The dharma of the Human Tribe seldom exceeded ten thousand meters.
Zhou Cangmin knew that only when a Human Tribe's Primordial Spirit reached the pinnacle, securing a divine position, could they manifest a dharma breaking the ten-thousand-meter threshold.
For Demon Kings, height was measured in zhang (feet), and it was nearly impossible for a Ninth Level Demon King to surpass ten thousand zhang.
Only at the level of a Demon God could one transcend this boundary, boasting a primordial demon form tens of thousands of zhang tall.
Yet, even the greatest of the Human and Demon Races, with their supreme dharma and primordial forms, could never achieve the immense scale of Yu Yuan's current dharma.
Yu Yuan's dharma was now locked in combat with the most massive creatures in the starry sky, nearly matching them in scale.
What did this imply?
The largest flesh-and-blood beings in history were the Starry Behemoths, now on the brink of extinction.
These were extraordinary beings, spanning millions of miles, akin to stars and celestial bodies!
Zhou Cangmin's mind buzzed with questions, and he found himself irresistibly drawn towards the battlefield.
Simultaneously, the battle between Yu Yuan and the Chaos Roc had also stirred the Blood Devil Clan's strongest in the Dim Starfield.
Transforming into streaks of blood or vast crimson seas, they converged towards the fray.
