Prime Originator

Chapter 553 - Appearance Of Divine Beasts

Rumble!

The skies continued to rumble with thunder, but not a speck of thunderclouds nor the flashing sight of lightning could be seen.

The only thing that could be seen in the night sky was Aria's brightly glowing body of bluish-white light.

The thunderclouds were utterly devoured by Aria and now existed inside of her sea of consciousness.

It gathered tightly around the Transcendent Ice-Lightning Crystal like a nebula and would sparkle with icy-cold electrical discharge from time to time. Some discharges even reached the soul core, which was considered lethal to most people.

However, Aria was perfectly fine with her soul intact.

On the contrary, the icy-cold electrical discharged swam along the surface of Aria's soul core intimately without trying to destroy it.

A Transcendent shared great affinity with their element and can never be destroyed by their own power—not unless they lose the connection they share with their element.

"So this is the Seeking Insight Stage…" Aria studied her newfound strength after opening her eyes in the sky, "This much strength should be around the same level as a Heaven Ascension Realm Divine Practitioner…"

Even so, Aria was also surprised to have reached the Seeking Insight Stage so quickly.

According to her estimation, it should have taken her at least three months, which was still considered extremely fast by the world's standards.

However, it was like someone was urging her to become stronger and assisted her in comprehending the Laws of Ice and Lightning, which ultimately led to her breakthrough.

"Someone helped me… but whoever it was, it wasn't Aria White for sure…" Aria muttered with furrowed her brows.

Contrary to feeling the joy of reaching the Seeking Insight-stage Transcendent Realm, Aria was riddled with concerns that there might be someone or something hidden in her own soul that she had no knowledge of.

"This is concerning… I should talk to Leon about this later…" Aria decided before closing her eyes to stabilized her cultivation.

However, it was not long before her eyes snapped open after sensing a humongous presence descending towards her from the distance ahead.

"Something is coming!"

It was not just Aria that sensed the presence. The sentries on the Great Wall were quickly alarmed after they heard the loud whisking wind and felt the increasing pressure of being pressed down by the wind.

Supreme Elder Haldir and Queen Elizabeth immediately shot to their feet and gazed towards the west with solemn expressions.

"Something big is coming."

"Un, I can feel it too!"

The two uttered.

ROAR!

KREE!

The mighty roars and cries of two different creatures of epic proportions were quickly heard, despite their figures not being seen in the night sky!

It was an instinctive guess determined by the volume of their voices.

However, it was not long before the illuminating figures of a flaming golden crow and a misty blue bird popped out from the high clouds!

The two enormous flying beasts battled and tore at each other with their claws as they continued to plunge from the night skies!

"Is that the legendary Three-Legged Golden Crow and Blue Luan?!"

"I thought these Divine Beasts were just a myth, but oh my god, they are huge!"

No matter who was watching, whether they were on the Great Wall or by the big Elder Tree, everyone was shocked by the two creatures' sheer size.

"I thought the Transcendent-level silver wolf was big, but this is something else! They must be at least 1000 feet tall!" A sentry spoke with wide eyes, unable to extricate his gaze from sight.

Everyone felt infinitesimally small in front of such colossal beings!

Nevertheless, another soldier immediately nudged the soldier, "Don't you have other things to worry about?! Quickly run!"

"Oh my god, you right! Run, everyone! They're coming our way!" The sentry was startled awake before he quickly alarmed the others, who were still stunned by the two divine beast's appearances.

As everyone quickly evacuated from the Great Wall, Aria also stood up on her ice-lightning sword before swiftly retreating from the area.

Boom!

The ground outside of the Great Wall immediately tore apart under the immense impact of the two colossal birds' crash!

The earth collapsed all the way down to the subterranean world's second floor while the surrounding ground shook wildly along with the Great Wall!

Even the ground underneath the Great Wall collapsed along with a portion of Military City as they connected with the vast crater!

If Great Wall had not been incredibly long and made of sturdy metal, it would have also collapsed along with them!

"Ahh!"

Many soldiers immediately lost their footing under the earthquake, while some directly flew off the Great Wall before they plunged into the dark abyss of the subterranean world underneath!

"Retreat! Everyone, quickly retreat!" A commanding soldier inside Military City cried as he escaped from the collapsing ground.

"Ahhh, nooo! Save me!" People cried as they could not outrun the collapsing ground before they were swallowed into the subterranean world.

It was unknown whether they had survived the fall.

Nevertheless, the collapsing ground eventually stopped upon reaching a certain point.

Even so, a fifth of Military City was swallowed by the crater, and empty space was formed between the remaining parts of Military City and the Great Wall.

Shortly after, people were directed further away from the enormous crater, evacuating outside of Military City, where it was deemed safe.

At the same time, Supreme Elder Haldir and Elizabeth glanced at each other before they took off from the Elder Tree's crown and flew into the skies, joining up with Aria as the three made their way over to investigate the newly founded crater.

"Did those two creatures die from—"

Elizabeth did not complete her question before the subterranean world resumed shaking from the battle between the Three-Legged Golden Crow and the Blue Luan.

"They're not dead! Quickly retreat!" Supreme Elder Haldir immediately cried, "This place is not safe! These creatures must be Paragon-level existences!"

After hearing the Supreme Elder's warning, Elizabeth and Aria immediately retreated back.

Once they reached the Great Wall, Elizabeth frowned, "Those creatures are Paragon-level existences? Why would they bring their fight to this place?"

"In a battle between life and death, anywhere can be their battlefield, Your Majesty. It's not up for us to decide where they fight… However, the more important question is why are they fighting?" Supreme Elder Haldir sighed with concerns.
