Mythical Era: I Evolved Into A Stellar-Level Beast

May 17th, early morning.

Deep in the mountain forest tens of kilometers outside Mason City, a young man with a full beard was sitting cross-legged, with an increasingly strong aura of destruction emitting from his body.

Under the terrifying aura, a raging wind howled around him, shaking the trees several meters away, whisking up gravel and fallen leaves, forming a tornado centered on Clyde.

Suddenly, Clyde’s aura fluctuated, and the tornado-like winds around him exploded with a burst and dispersed.

“No, it’s still lacking a bit,” Clyde opened his eyes, showing a hint of disappointment on his face.

After two days of closed-door cultivation, although he had sensed the barrier to breakthrough, he was always just a bit short and unable to break the shackles to step into the Seventh Layer Heaven.

At that moment, the forest in the distance shook, and a middle-aged man with an expressionless face appeared, calmly looking at Clyde who was sitting cross-legged in the distance.

“Genetic Martial Arts follows the path of merging with the Alien Beast Gene, ultimately evolving into another more perfect form of life. Therefore, each realm involves altering one’s physique, sublimating one’s life.”

“You are stuck at the Seventh Layer because you still consider yourself a ‘Person.’ Your spiritual will has not reached unity with the genetic information within your body.”

“Similar to the unity of Spirit Qi with the True Martial Way, when your subconscious resists ‘it,’ you naturally cannot fully beastize.”

The words of the middle-aged man left Clyde silent for a moment before he coldly replied, “I already know what you’ve said, but the problem is, how do I give up ‘myself’?”

To abandon oneself in the Seventh Layer of Genetic Martial Arts wasn’t something that could be accomplished simply by stating ‘I’ll stop being human.’ It required a deep understanding of one’s genes and the fusion of will.

To ultimately become a completely new humanoid Unique Beast.

The middle-aged man shook his head, “This is a long-term process of self-realization, self-suggestion, and self-change. There is no way to achieve it overnight.”

“However, if you want to defeat Darren Callum with your current strength, which barely compares to that of the Late Sevenfold Sky, it is insufficient. You might not even be able to take a single move from him.”

“Is that Darren Callum really that strong?” Clyde asked with an emotionless gaze.

“You were able to defeat Dennings, who had just broken through to the mid-period of the Seventh Layer, because of your Grand Destruction Fist Intent and the tenfold burst of Genetic Power in your punch.”

“But such a move, you can only use it for a maximum of three consecutive bursts. If you can’t defeat your enemy in three moves, you’ll be drained of strength.”

“Conveniently, Darren is strong enough to take three moves without injury. You are no match for him now unless you break through the Seventh Layer and evolve your bloodline.”

“Although I can’t help you break through, I have a bottle of Chaotic God Essence Blood here. Once consumed, it can stimulate your bloodline to its limit, temporarily allowing you to step into the Seventh Layer.”

Looking at the middle-aged man, Clyde didn’t ask whether to take it or not, but instead demanded in a deep voice, “Which Evil God are you from the Evil God Sect?”

In the time he had traveled between two countries, Clyde had also looked into online information about Darren.

Like how Darren had slain an Evil God Clone and how the girl named Ilisa he was protecting had been attacked by a Demon from the Demon God Sect.

The middle-aged man calmly said, “What is a god, but merely a group of powerful cultivators.”

“In the past, it was only because I had a disagreement with the Federation folk. They expelled me from the Blue Star World and banished me to the mythical world for decades.”

“My return this time is only to retrieve an item that belongs to me from that girl named Ilisa.”

“While you have frozen your mother, preserving her body in a near-death state, death has already enshrouded her. As soon as the frozen state is lifted, she will die within a few breaths.”

“Only after I retrieve that item can I perform the Blood Reincarnation Technique, using the power that involves time to reverse your mother’s body and soul, restoring them to several years ago.”

“Only then will she not die.”

Clyde remained silent at the man’s words, then said solemnly, “Where’s the blood?”

At once, the middle-aged man showed a hint of a smile, taking out a red bottle, “This bottle of Chaotic God Essence Blood, once consumed, will become a pseudo ‘bloodline’ power that integrates into your body.”

“When you fully unleash that bloodline power, you will possess the strength of a Seventh Layer beastified powerhouse, until the power of the bloodline is exhausted and your realm falls.”

Under the middle-aged man’s gaze, Clyde drank the Chaotic God Essence Blood in one gulp, and instantly a terrifying aura erupted from him.

Boom!

Heavenly Energy from hundreds of meters around converged, and Overbearing Destruction Fist Intent soared into the sky.

Unmasked, the aura of a ‘breakthrough’ to the Seventh Layer Heaven, even if tens of kilometers away, was sensed by both Jack Clark and Damon Lopes.

Whoosh, whoosh!

In a flash, two figures appeared on the rooftop. Jack Clark and Damon Lopes, who were having breakfast, arrived on the rooftop, looking towards the distance.

Though their realms were still at the Sixth Layer Heaven, their true strength had long since reached the late period of the Seventh Layer, or even the pinnacle, making them akin to unorthodox high-ranking powerhouses.

Feeling the soaring Fist Intent, Damon Lopes raised an eyebrow, “That Destruction Will has a sense of obliteration. It’s that Clyde, has he actually broken through to the Seventh Layer Heaven?”

Jack Clark spoke slowly, “That aura seems a bit unstable. It must be a forced breakthrough.”

Damon Lopes was puzzled, “Why is this guy cooperating with Akunus? Even willing to risk foundational damage to break through to the Seventh Layer Heaven forcefully?”

Jack had told Damon about Clyde’s situation afterwards.

Jack replied calmly, “There’s no need to worry about that question. As long as we confirm he’s an enemy, knocking him out is enough. Knowing too much only adds to our troubles.”

Damon nodded slightly, “You are right, but now that this guy has broken through to the Seventh Layer, are you sure you can handle him when the time comes?”
