NOVPUBChapter 993: Chapter 993: Supreme Thunder Beast Chapter 993: Chapter 993: Supreme Thunder Beast Chu Yuan was now walking in the Main Divine Palace. He was indeed approaching the core zone, but he was not in a rush.
“Do gods ever truly die for good?”
Chu Yuan murmured to himself.
Whoosh!
He sensed a powerful void force blocking his path; there was a massive area ahead. He stepped in without hesitation, his current strength allowed him to not fear some dangers.
The scene before him drastically changed; this was an immense landscape with mountains and rivers crisscrossing.
However, the inside was empty as far as the eye could see, aside from the natural environment, he saw nothing else.
“Over there.”
Chu Yuan was drawn by a movement; there, lightning flashed and thunder roared, shaking the heavens. Electricity surged towards the peak of the space but couldn’t break through, as runes isolated the fluctuations of this area.
“How many years has it been? Has someone come again?”
Suddenly, a terrifying voice emerged, fierce and aggressive.
A mass of lightning was moving, and within that lightning was a creature, covered in black scales, of massive size, with a tail as long as a snake’s, but with the body of a ferocious beast, standing on sturdy limbs on the ground, its mouth was filled with sharp teeth radiating destructive thunder.
This was a ferocious beast.
This beast exuded a supreme aura, having reached a supreme level of cultivation, utterly savage.
Its huge eyes were blood-red, and a thick stench of blood oppressed Chu Yuan.
Seeing someone enter, it was excited.
However, by the looks of the beast, it seemed unable to leave that place.
Its recent violent barrage was an attempt to break through the barrier of this space, indicating the strength of the gods that they could confine a supreme beast here.
“Thunder Beast.”
Chu Yuan recognized the origins of the beast.
Thunder Beasts were extremely brutal and ferocious; they were born with immortal cultivation, preferring environments with lightning and naturally wielding power over it, drawn to the essence of thunder, their numbers exceedingly rare.
“So someone still knows of my past, weak human, since the god met with calamity, this place has been long untouched. It seems great chaos has unfolded outside; otherwise, outsiders would not have set foot in the divine court,” said the Supreme Thunder Beast, its eyes darting about, excitedly saying, “That means I can get out!”
“Tell me the news from the outside world, what exactly has happened? As compensation, I will grant you a swift death,” said the Supreme Thunder Beast viciously.
“Just a trapped beast.”
Chu Yuan stated indifferently.
He too was attracted here by the aura of the Supreme Thunder Beast.
“What did you say!”
The Supreme Thunder Beast hated being called a trapped beast more than anything. It loathed this place and wanted to devour anyone who dared to mention it.
“Beast Garden.”
Chu Yuan saw a stone monument, with three characters written in divine script.
Clearly, this was a place meant for nurturing divine beasts, akin to a zoo, imprisoning many precious divine beasts.
“I’m going to eat you; I’ve been hungry for a very long time!”
The Supreme Thunder Beast looked huge, but it was as fast as lightning, instantly charging at Chu Yuan, its gaping maw ready to swallow him whole.
Chu Yuan merely glanced at it, and with a bang, the Thunder Beast was blasted away.
“This man is very strong!”
The Supreme Thunder Beast was shocked; it sensed an ominous aura, even feeling as if it were facing a god. Suddenly, black lightning surged from its mouth.
“Even if I’ve been imprisoned by a god, over these many years, my strength has greatly increased. I don’t believe that under my divine thunder, you can remain unscathed!”
The Supreme Thunder Beast was confident.
But as the lightning dissipated, its eyes widened in deathly shock. The human who seemed so insignificant in its eyes was completely unharmed by the thunder; it could not touch him.
“Do you desire the power of lightning?”
Chu Yuan said softly.
He waved his hand, and the Sky Thunder Gate appeared. Thunder rumbled forth from it, instantly inundating the divine beast’s enclosure. He stood there, his presence formidable, like a god who commanded all laws.
“This portal!”
Greed overwhelmed its respect for Chu Yuan. The Supreme Thunder Beast knew that if it had this portal, its strength would increase significantly, enough to break free from this damned divine beast’s enclosure.
It roared and charged over,
but suddenly, an Emperor’s palm struck down. It was invincible, sweeping over the Supreme Thunder Beast, bringing with it the fate of the Main Divine Palace. A massive force slammed down, pinning it to the ground, suppressing it right where it was.
“The fate of the Main Divine Palace!”
The Supreme Thunder Beast was terrified, “You, you, you… Who exactly are you? Are there people outside establishing a new Main Divine Palace, vying for dominance over the universe again?”
It had not expected the person before it to be a lord of the Main Divine Palace.
Such lords could vie for the position of Ruler of the Universe.
Its eyes flickered, trapped and unable to lift its head. It cunningly said, “Your Excellency of the Main Divine Palace, what do you wish to do? I know many secrets of the divine courts. If you release me and take me from here, I can lead you to the many treasures left by the gods.”
“Still playing conspiracies.”
Chu Yuan said indifferently, “How many secrets could a beast confined within a divine beast’s enclosure know? You can’t even get out.”
“You!”
The Supreme Thunder Beast roared in anger, but it dared not lash out in front of Chu Yuan. It said in a low voice, “I do know a lot. It’s not that I’m not strong, but back then, the gods were too powerful, and ordinary sovereigns couldn’t compete with them.”
“There should have been other divine beasts here in this enclosure, not just you.”
Chu Yuan said.
“The gods met with a disaster, and no one fed me. I was hungry, so I ate them all.”
The Supreme Thunder Beast still savored the taste of those divine beasts—it was too delicious. These were rare divine beasts collected by the gods, some of which could no longer be seen in the universe, and they all became food in its belly.
“You Thunder Beast.”
Chu Yuan shook his head.
Hungry? This place was filled with primal energy. How could a Sovereign be hungry?
This Thunder Beast had intended to plunder during the great calamity of the Main Divine Palace, greedily devouring the divine beasts, but it could never leave the beast’s enclosure.
“What exactly do you want to do, Your Excellency the Emperor?”
The Supreme Thunder Beast said, “Just let me out, and I can kill for you. I may not be good at other things, but I am very powerful in killing.”
“Very well, a sovereign-level Thunder Beast will become my mount starting today.”
Chu Yuan was moved to take the Thunder Beast for himself.
A sovereign-level Thunder Beast, ferocious and fierce. Others might not be able to subdue it, but Chu Yuan was confident enough to suppress it, to make it completely obey him.
“To become your mount!”
Upon hearing this, the Supreme Thunder Beast’s scales exploded and stood on end, and its tail thrashed wildly on the ground.
It was a Sovereign, reduced to becoming a person’s mount—this was like an insult, stripping it of all dignity.
“Wuu wuu…”
The Supreme Thunder Beast let out a low roar; it was ferocious, suddenly erupting in an attempt to break free from the giant hand suppressing it.
But Chu Yuan’s hand was like the heavens and the earth, suppressing it. This terrified the Supreme Thunder Beast.
It felt like it was not contending with a person but an immovable universe, unnerving it more and more.
“If you want to die, move again.”
Chu Yuan did not pamper the Supreme Thunder Beast, making it submit and fear him, so it would completely follow his commands.
