Chapter 432 – Dolai Becomes Legend, Devouring Heaven and Earth

“He’s reached the Legendary Realm, and without a doubt, this is a perfect breakthrough achieved through the ultimate sublimation state with no waste whatsoever.”

A smile curled at the corners of Mu Yuan’s lips.

The ultimate sublimation state could only be maintained for a very short time, often just one to two hundred seconds. During this process, the sublimator continuously burned their energy, flesh, spirit, will, and life.

The longer the breakthrough took and the more life force consumed, the narrower the future path would naturally become.

Just now, Uta had harnessed his willpower, which had climbed to its peak and surpassed all limits, to gather his sublimation power. With overwhelming, violent, and absolute force, he shattered the solid barriers and ascended to the Legendary Realm.

He had forged a new path—the path of breaking through realms with sheer strength.

“While this certainly benefits from being a three-star epic lifeform, Uta’s will to surpass everything is the true foundation of breaking through realms with strength. The opening of this new path is almost a miracle, and it’s unlikely any successors will be able to replicate it.”

Regardless, the goal had been achieved.

Whether it was Sario, who was very familiar with Uta, or Isloria and the others who were less acquainted with him, all showed expressions of admiration.

“As expected of a powerhouse even Sario can’t match.”

“After Uta breaks through, I can finally face him with my true strength. Hmph, I won’t lose.”

“This person is too ruthless, crow.”

“Our Tianyuan Territory truly has no shortage of talented individuals. Good thing I switched tracks early, otherwise competing with these ruthless people for the position of right-hand man would be terrifying to think about.”

Elements surged, and a Domain spontaneously formed.

Uta’s Domain expanded to about six hundred meters before halting its advance.

Not to mention compared to Deadbone, Dolai, and the others, even the Domains of those who had just broken through to the Legendary Realm and ranked in the top hundred of the Dragon Gate List were larger than this.

Mu Yuan was not disappointed.

Uta had previously been a ‘non-legendary seed’ without even a Domain. His Domain was created from nothing, likely forcibly born under the influence of the world’s rules, making it seem ordinary.

Besides…

“Deeply cultivating the Domain, expanding the Domain, using the Domain as a foundation… this is indeed the royal path summarized by countless predecessors, far superior to paths like faith, blood sacrifice, nine transformations, and so on—more suitable for the masses and with greater prospects.”

But for Uta…

The Domain was not the foundation.

The Domain with a radius of over six hundred meters suddenly began to shrink inward.

The War Intent Armament, molded from Uta’s will, also manifested and covered his entire body.

The Domain and the Armament gradually fused together.

No, not just with the Armament.

Uta was absorbing the Domain, turning it into part of his body and muscles.

This, perhaps, was the limit of muscle training.

…

With Uta’s breakthrough, the number of Legendary Realm experts in Tianyuan City officially reached double digits.

A cause for celebration, truly a cause for celebration.

Mu Yuan opened his panel and listed the current Tianyuan legends by rank.

“Deadbone: 6011”

“Tree Spirit Grandma: 5299”

“Dolai: 2333”

“Isloria: …”

“Lu Liu: …”

After absorbing and digesting the gift from the Blood Tree King, Tree Spirit Grandma’s Domain radius had broken through the 5,000-meter level.

At this level, she could resonate with the world, possessing suppression power far surpassing that of ordinary Legendary Realm experts in competing for the elements of heaven and earth.It could be considered at the peak of the Heaven-Earth Realm, possessing the qualification to attempt a breakthrough into the second stage of the Legendary Realm.

However,

true powerhouses do not rush their breakthroughs. Even after expanding their Domain to the 5000-meter level, they can still continue to climb.

For every additional thousand meters, the foundation of a Legendary Realm powerhouse becomes one level more solid.

Those truly capable of stepping into the Legendary God Soul Realm would undoubtedly elevate their Domain to the six, seven, or eight-thousand-meter level.

Every bit of progress allows one to tread further on the path ahead.

“Tree Spirit Grandma once briefly topped the Tianyuan Rank leaderboard, but after digesting the remnants bestowed by the Blood Tree King, the speed of her Domain expansion slowed significantly. She remained stuck at the 5299-meter bottleneck for a full two and a half days.”

“After Deadbone evolved into a Legendary lifeform, his Domain radius broke through the four-thousand-meter level. Since then, his Domain radius has continued to expand unceasingly, and the rate of increase appears to be accelerating.”

This Legendary lifeform, Deadbone, is gradually revealing his complete form.

For Deadbone, Domain radius is merely a reference marker.

The Domain is just one of his countless methods.

To construct a Legendary foundation, he may not necessarily need to rely on the Domain.

He has his own path.

He certainly doesn’t require Mu Yuan’s concern.

“Based on Deadbone’s previous test, the birth of a Legendary indeed didn’t cause any major disturbances. Therefore, it’s time for Tianyuan City to welcome its second Legendary lifeform.”

As Mu Yuan contemplated this,

before him appeared the vast, brilliant, and profoundly mysterious Evolution Pool. The power of evolution rippled within it, while points of light flew across the sky like stellar rainbows.

「Evolution Points: 950,000」

After Deadbone’s evolution, the Evolution Pool’s capacity had also greatly increased.

Currently, the pool could hold approximately 1.8 million units of evolutionary energy.

“It’s been over a month since Deadbone evolved into a Legendary,”

Mu Yuan murmured.

During this period, few main commanders had evolved—only Sickle Moon among them.

But Tianyuan City wasn’t solely comprised of main commanders. Based on the contributions of various legions and elites, he had bestowed numerous evolutionary baptisms.

Compared to over a month ago, Tianyuan City now had nearly a hundred more Epic-tier troops.

Among them, the Deathbone Lords alone numbered fifty—not too far from forming a full hundred-strong Epic battalion.

Among the junior commanders, several had evolved to Epic Two-Star rank.

For example, Niu Si, deputy commander of the Defense Corps.

And Azure Frost, commander of the Snow Maiden Corps. After advancing to Epic Two-Star, she awakened a unique talent: ‘Pure White Frozen Soil.’ This environmental, field-type talent meant that wherever Frost Lord ‘Azure Frost’ tread, the land became pure white frozen soil. When she activated this power, ice elemental particles within the area would grow dense, and the earth would completely transform into a white ice plain.

Thanks to this talent, Azure Frost immediately developed her own Domain.

“Just as Epic troops who awaken talents like ‘Lord’s Majesty’ or ‘Will as Sword’ are certain to ignite their Willpower Light, Frost Lords who awaken ‘Pure White Frozen Soil’ are destined to possess a Domain at this stage. This significantly smooths their path to the Legendary Realm.”

Among the secondary commanders, Bone Four often led its corps to achieve high gains in exploration and combat.

Due to its substantial contributions, it was the first to advance to Epic Three-Star rank.

Bone Two and Bone Three weren’t far behind either.”Even if Dolai evolves, the remaining evolution power this time is relatively ample, which can be reserved for unexpected needs.”

As for Dolai’s territorial contributions?

It has actually far exceeded what is needed for evolution. However, Dolai has grown up now and no longer asks from time to time like before, “Hey hey~ Is it my turn to evolve yet?” But Mu Yuan certainly wouldn’t forget about it.

…

First time unfamiliar, second time accustomed.

Mu Yuan encountered some issues during his first legendary evolution, but by this second time he was already an old hand, maintaining a steady mindset.

Key commanders like Lu Liu and Rakshasa continued with their respective duties—some guarding their posts, others exploring.

Tianyuan City remained completely normal and peaceful.

“The evolution site has been fully prepared.”

“Domain Jammer and Barrier Stele adjustments completed.”

“The Dragon Mound Fertile Soil Realm gate can be closed at any time.”

“The Epic Mage Tower is on standby.”

“…”

“All 36 preparatory tasks have been completed,”

Isloria reported.

Dolai had already entered the ritual ground. It pinched its own cheek, eyes filled with determination.

Charge! Charge!

Thump—

Dolai reverted to its original form—a small Slime with faint purple starlight shimmering across its body.

It bounced in place a couple of times, blinking its large eyes to indicate it was ready.

The miraculous power of evolution showered down, transforming the tiny Slime into pure light.

A pillar of light shot into the sky.

The brilliance made the entire Secret Realm pale in comparison.

Time ticked steadily by.

One hour;

Six hours;

Eighteen hours;

Mu Yuan waited patiently. When Deadbone underwent legendary evolution, it had taken a full day and night.

But soon, a full day and night passed, and Dolai remained bathed in white light, with no changes to its form or Aura.

“What’s going on?”

By the eighteenth hour, Deadbone had already shown various changes like Domain enhancement and Epic Skill upgrades.

At this point, Dolai was still just glowing.

Only glowing.

Suddenly, Mu Yuan noticed the evolution power was being consumed.

The Miracle Power sent him feedback—support or abort?

Of course, support.

「Evolution Points -1000.」

「Evolution Points -1000.」

「Evolution Points -1000.」

A stream of evolution points flowed toward Dolai.

The 50W evolution points seemed… insufficient.

Mu Yuan pondered, beginning to form some conjectures.

“The birth of a legendary lifeform aligns with the rules of heaven and earth. Even Miracle Power cannot arbitrarily break these rules.”

“50W points might just be the baseline. Deadbone didn’t require extra consumption, but that doesn’t mean others can achieve the same.”

Soon, several tens of thousands more evolution points were consumed, making Mu Yuan’s eyelids twitch.

Fortunately, he always preferred to play it safe. Otherwise, what would happen if evolution power ran out? Failed evolution? Half-completed evolution?

He didn’t know.

But Dolai’s evolution finally began to show changes. A trace of high-tier lifeform pressure started to emerge, spreading outward and instantly stirring up violent winds and torrential rains.

Dolai’s black-and-white Devour Snake Domain naturally manifested and began expanding beyond its limits at a visible pace.

2333 meters!

2335 meters!

2337 meters!

Two hours later, Dolai’s Domain radius expanded to 4,400 meters, but continued growing;

Four hours later, Dolai’s Domain radius reached 6,000 meters, already far surpassing Deadbone’s Domain level at that time, and the expansion showed no signs of stopping;Six hours later, Dolai’s Domain finally ceased expanding, but by this time its radius had astonishingly reached 7,500 meters!

Far surpassing even Deadbone’s!

The brilliant pillar of evolution once again erupted with dazzling radiance, illuminating the sky and earth for thousands of miles.

“Ding!”

“Prompt: Your Hero ‘Dolai’ is undergoing metamorphosis.”

“Prompt: Dolai’s Advanced Skill ‘Dimensional Pocket’ has transformed during the baptism, advancing to the Epic Skill ‘Dimensional Void’, possessing vast space.”

…

“Prompt: Dolai’s Epic Talent ‘Devour (Top-tier)’ has been further enhanced, with improved Devour effects and significantly increased digestive capacity. Various skills derived from the Devouring Talent, such as ‘Mimicry’, ‘Steel Body’, ‘Fire Element Control’, etc., have all been upgraded.”

…

“Prompt: Dolai’s Epic Talent ‘Space-Tearing Seal’ has been enhanced. The time required for the Space-Tearing Seal to imprint space has been greatly reduced, while its maximum effective range on space has increased from 16 kilometers to 32 kilometers.”

Unlike Deadbone,

Dolai’s ‘Space Devour’ saw little change, but surprisingly, during the baptism, it advanced an additional Epic Skill.

Moreover, the Devouring Talent and Space-Tearing Seal received significant enhancements.

Especially the Space-Tearing Seal.

Dolai can now extend the power of space-tearing over thirty kilometers away, potentially eliminating hostile Legends before they even see it.

At this point, thirty-one hours had passed since Dolai began evolving into a Legend.

The celestial phenomena finally manifested.

Golden luminous clouds appeared from the horizon, and celebratory sounds of heaven and earth began to resonate.

Elements of all colors rejoiced.

Fire transformed into blazing clouds drifting across the sky;

Lightning morphed into thunder dragons writhing beneath the clouds;

Wind, earth, ice, water… the entire world seemed to enter a month of elemental surge, yet all these surging elements were devoured by Dolai in the next moment.

“Ding—”

“Prompt: Your Hero ‘Dolai’, bathed in the radiance of Miracle, has undergone tremendous metamorphosis and has advanced to Legendary One-Star lifeform ‘Devouring Slime’. During this process, it awakened the Legendary Might—Devouring Heaven and Earth.”

——

“Devouring Heaven and Earth”

“Description: The miraculous existence ‘Dolai’ among Devouring Slimes can devour everything, including objects, life, energy, elements, Domains, and even concepts. Simultaneously, Dolai can digest what it devours, converting it into its own nourishment.”

“Note ①: Within a certain period, there is an upper limit to the ‘food’ Dolai can digest.”

“Note ②: When Dolai possesses sufficiently powerful strength, it can devour the heavens and earth, and even worlds.”

As the prompts dinged repeatedly,

Above the Ten Directions Island Region, above the Twilight Great Domain, above the Great Azure Domain…

Over one Great Domain after another, golden meteors flashed by. Though not particularly conspicuous, they caused some individuals’ pupils to tremble violently.

“Another Legendary lifeform has been born?!”

“Wait, how long has it been since the last celestial celebration appeared?”

“Just over a month… Two Legendary lifeforms appearing successively within two short months—is this some kind of auspicious omen?”

Within the Star Gazing Association, some were delighted while others were concerned.

“As the saying goes, great calamities often accompany great eras. This could be auspicious, but it might also be a catastrophe.”

…

Eternal Star Empire.”Within two months, I have discovered two signs of legends—how incredibly fortunate! This must be a revelation from heaven and earth! Search, quickly search for me!”

…

In the Divine Radiance Empire, the Star Luo Holy Temple, and other great nations, various forces trembled repeatedly upon observing these legendary celestial phenomena.

But what did this have to do with the utterly ordinary Tianyuan Territory?

Two days later.

Dolai had awakened from the aftermath of its evolution and thoroughly explored its new abilities.

Its evolution had been quite costly, consuming a full 680,000 Evolution Points.

“If even Dolai required 680,000 points, wouldn’t Isloria and the others need even more for their evolutions?”

“Regardless, I must secure more reserves before the next evolution.”

Fortunately, accumulating Evolution Points wasn’t difficult—500,000 or even 1,000,000 points wouldn’t take long.

At this moment,

Mu Yuan and Dolai arrived at the southernmost edge of the Ten Directions Island Region, before a land where energy ran wild and not a blade of grass grew.

Beyond this violent barrier lay the Twilight Great Domain.

Here, energy surged like colossal waves, constantly crashing and shaking the earth.

For experts like Mu Yuan and Dolai, crossing wasn’t difficult. For ordinary Legends, traversing it wasn’t so easy. For those below the Legendary Realm, attempting to cross this violent perilous land meant certain death.

Yet this route was crucially important.

Every time Daisy led merchant caravans through this violent barrier, they required Dolai’s escort while carrying the epic treasure ‘Space Urn.’

This was no easy task for Dolai either.

The comings and goings of merchant teams were extremely troublesome.

Having frequently traveled back and forth here, Dolai proposed an idea after its evolution.

A brilliant, astonishing, earth-shattering concept that could break through the Land of Fury.

“I’ll eat it!”

Dolai flashed into the violent land, standing high in the sky.

It placed its fingers against its cheeks and made a gesture of pulling its mouth wide open.

The next moment, before the energy tides between heaven and earth could surge and crash down, Dolai swallowed them all.

Then came the violent elements here;

The irregular, constantly vibrating and compressing space;

The abnormal earth veins and disordered heaven and earth;

Heaven and earth suddenly cleared.

The elemental particles in the surrounding area were instantly emptied.

Energy vanished, earth veins ceased to exist.

Even the folded space was smoothed out, revealing a heaven-earth path hundreds of meters wide and dozens of meters high extending to the horizon, leading directly into the opposite Great Domain.

But at this moment, invisible ripples seemed to stir between heaven and earth.

Elemental particles noisily emerged, attempting to gather and form energy tides.

Such were the rules, such were the concepts.

Like a waterfall constantly pouring down from the heavens—Legendary Realm experts might use their formidable power to briefly cut off the waterfall’s flow, but they could never stop the waterfall entirely.

The endless pouring of water was an established phenomenon.

Here, the fury of elemental particles and energy resembling torrents was also an established, constant phenomenon.

“I’ll eat it again!”

This time, Dolai’s face flushed red.

A giant mouth seemed to manifest behind it, devouring the entire stretch of heaven and earth.

In the distance, the particles of heaven and earth boiled and gathered.

Visible small energy tides had already formed.

As if nothing had happened at all.However, the already formed energy surge no longer expanded, and the boiling elemental particles between heaven and earth had also calmed somewhat.

Mu Yuan gazed into the distance.

Far away, one could still see the energy of heaven and earth surging like a torrent, scouring everything it touched and emitting deafening roars.

Yet here, in this most violent energy zone near the Great Domain passage, only gentle breezes blew, with small waves dissipating into the air.

The turbulence, chaos… and all other restless concepts here had been devoured.

The restless world had been devoured.

Thus, only tranquility remained.

Dolai seemed to have created a small forbidden space here, where energy was sparse and less than one in ten elemental particles remained.

Inside and outside were two completely different worlds.

This was the mighty power of Devouring Heaven and Earth.
