CHAPTER TEXT:
Under the cold depths of the sea, the water was murky, and mountain peaks collapsed.
A black-red giant beast, measuring one hundred ninety-eight meters in length, stood upright. Its body was engulfed in blazing Golden Flame, and the destruction thunder leaped between its dorsal fins, emanating a terrifying aura.
Two kilometers away on the seabed lay the corpse of a more than one hundred fifty-meter-long ninth-level behemoth, with a fatal wound that pierced through its skull, leaving a charred hollow five meters in diameter.
This behemoth was the last ninth-level beast in the Northern Ice Sea Region, extremely cautious.
After sensing something was off in the Northern Ice Sea Region recently, it had been hiding its presence. The Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon had searched for almost two days before finally locating it.
As this behemoth attempted to flee, the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon caught up and unleashed a pulse breath enhanced by nine Thunder Rings, piercing through the deep sea to kill the beast from behind.
At this moment, a candle dragon more than three hundred meters long appeared in the dark waters behind, looking at the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon, which had been standing still for quite some time, and slowly let out a low growl.
"King, what is wrong with you?"
The golden vertical pupils of the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon slightly moved. Coming back to its senses, it growled, "It's nothing. I was just contemplating the life of beasts."
Contemplating the life of beasts?? A string of question marks slowly emerged in the mind of the red behemoth.
With his soul carrying the primordial rule, Chen Chu's main consciousness had fallen into a deep slumber, and the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon, sharing the same soul origin, was also affected.
This time, carrying the rule was not as simple as integrating the world's origin into the soul; it was a transformation of Chen Chu's soul.
The supreme experts beyond the heavenly kings follow their own path of rules, mastering existence, while the further demigod emperors become rule entities.
The two sides are fundamentally different.
Of course, whether it's principles or rules, they are the powers of extraordinary behemoths and cultivators themselves, a sublimation of their own paths, with great power returning to themselves, rather than controlling some kind of rules in the Blue Star World or mythical world.
However, there are those who take the path of merging with heaven and earth, aligning their own rules with a certain rule of the mythical world, becoming 'true gods' who master a realm.
In the alliance of deities in the mythical world, some neutral kings call themselves deities because they have entangled and fused their own rules with the laws of heaven and earth, forming a divine kingdom.
In these divine kingdoms, these kings would be even more powerful, possessing the strength of a realm with every move, while the laws of the divine kingdom would suppress their opponents.
But this path has significant flaws; once they leave the divine kingdom, their strength will plummet.
However, all this felt somewhat distant for Chen Chu.
At this time, under the rule power left by the emperor, the blank primordial rule was transforming into a primordial universe, slowly modifying his soul.
Of course, this modification was just to let Chen Chu's soul be touched by the aura of the rules, carrying the primordial energy, rather than transforming his soul into a rule entity.
The means of directly nurturing a rule entity were beyond even the emperor's capabilities.
"Roar! Candle Dragon, I want to sleep for a few days. Don't disturb me," said the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon, swaying its tail and reaching a nearby underwater mountain peak in just a few breaths.
As for the flesh of that ninth-level behemoth, it could wait until it woke up to feast on it.
Watching the black-red ferocious behemoth lying on the distant mountain sleeping, after a while, the red behemoth finally reacted, its fierce mouth slightly opened.
