Chapter 255: Survive!!!
"ANSWER ME, LITTLE SIS!!!"
COughing a mouthful of blood, I fell to my knees as Heavens might began to grow stronger, swallowing the heavens in darkness. Hearing the raging laughter of Aldrich, my eyes slowly grew even darker as I arose, not hearing a single reply. From the one known as Truck-Kun.
"Arsene, calm down!" Melinoë shouted as cold sweat fell from her brow, "Focus, or you are dead!"
With my soul still flashing through thousands of fragmented memories, none of which made any sense, I only grew more confused. I could not understand why I spoke those words, but I felt I was correct! There were two more of us.
Clenching my fist, the sin of wrath fueled my very soul. I turned my attention back towards the heavens trembling with a horrifying might.
Suddenly the Root of the World Tree began to glimmer as a small little girl appeared. Glaring at me with sinister light, she sneered, "Snow, what is this?"
Ignoring the foolish question, I spoke, "Ezra and Melinoë, you two are responsible for eliminating the divine energy I am sensing. Mare and Anya are to destroy or disrupt the absorption of qi within The Heavens.
"Ygg, cover this realm..."
"Do you understand what is going on!!!" Yggdrasil screamed, glaring at me in rage, "All of my realms are being drained to fuel this fucking formation! Midgard is the least of my concern. This is meant to kill fucking gods!"
Opening my eyes wide, the hairs upon my body began to rise WHile his cruel laughter consumed heaven and earth in a sea of rage.
"Everyone run... Do not worry about me!" I quickly shouted in panic, "Ygg, teleport them away! NOW!!!!"
"NO!!"
"STOP!!!!
Hearing the screams of everyone, I watched as their bodies vanished, leaving only the members of the Village of Katala.
"It's over, Arsene! I will always win!!!" Aldrich yelled in a maddening tone. "It's over!!! From the one who came before, and you now, I will always win!!!! "
Pushing qi into my mind, perception began to slow as I began thinking of my options. Yggdrasil said he was absorbing qi from every realm. This tribulation was definitely not something a Spirit Realm is supposed to live through. Shit, even a true god would perish. This is not fair in the slightest.
Suddenly it hit me, "WHen was it ever said a tribulation had to be lightning strikes? It is about overcoming a great trial. Most trials are about living through nine or seven lightning strikes, but mine is slightly different, but the principles are the same.
Trying to overcome such insurmountable lightning is impossible. I needed to redirect it somewhere! Gulping down, a small demonic dagger flashed within my hands.
Staring down towards the dagger given to me by bael during my first trial as a form of deception to leap into the Lake of the Abyss. my soul shivered in fear as cold sweat trickled down my chin. "He said I would be able to survive within the abyss. I hope that is true."
Pushing my connection to Lilith, I screamed, "Open an Abyssal Gate in front of me NOW!!!!"
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Couching up blood, my very skin exploded from my body as a single bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the heavenly formation within the Dark Skies. Pushing more and more qi into my mind to help process reality slower, blood vessels began to pop as I watch the Pale Rider march his grey steed towards me, drawing closer and closer.
Feeling my muscles quickly beginning to tear away from my bones, my life slowly began to flash within my mind. I did not even have the time to speak or scream in anguish as Aldrich's Divine Lightning bolted towards me.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Coughing up my liver and various other organs, I moaned in anguish as my eyes began to focus on the large emerald barrier covering all of the Village of Katala.
Hering a childlike groan, I stared at the Root of Yggdrasil begin to burn as the Grey lightning continued on, tearing apart her barrier. With a single cry of desperation, I laid still and weak, incapable of even moving a finger as I pushed all of my soul force into healing.
"Damn it!!!" Yggdrasil screamed as her barrier shattered into millions of fragments. Feeling a pool of blood flow around me, I could not help but sigh at the endless bodies of those around me.
None of them had even survived the initial force of Aldrich's Lightning when it fell, much less when it crashed into Yggdrasil's Barrier.
"Is this where I die?" I mentally asked as the lighting edged towards me. "No, she has heard my cry!"
"ARSENE!!!!" Yggdrasil screamed, yet I did not fear.
"LILITH~" I bellowed as a sinister mist of crimson darkness exploded out the void.
Piercing into the misty energy by entire body began to char as I felt the radiance of death clawing at my soul. Seconds felt like years as the Divine Tribulations continued tearing into the mist.
"Arsene, swallow my Primordial Essence," Ygg roared as I felt my vision fading into Mother's embrace.
"Ah~" Weakly groaning, I tilted my head, staring off into death, sensing my very limbs slowly turning to ash. My soul essence was all but used up anymore, and I would risk total soul depravation.
"L...Lilith," I spoke as the mist around me began to fade; however, the divine tribulation was not deterred as the second heavenly lightning came crashing down upon the misty gate of the Abyss.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM~
Coughing up another mouthful of blood, my skinless body tore open due to the massive shockwave. My very eye was all but turned to mush as I stared into the empty darkness. With my organs spilling out of my body, I simply waited for it to all end.
"Damn it, Arsene!!!" The voice of Ygg roared as I felt a powerful sensation upon my body. Sensing the element of wood pouring into my veins, my mind began to focus once more yet, I held no strength to move, much less fight against the inevitable.
"Arsene, that was the second lighting strick its over, but you must use my Primordial Essence. My root is destroyed, and I am locked down due to interfering in a tribulation. You must swallow it now!!!" Ygg cried as the sounds of pitiful tears began to fall.
With a string of my soul that was fading in and out, I tilted my hollow eyes turned towards her... She... I could feel her there.
"Arsene, please at least summon it. I cannot enter the ring of Bael. You must...Please!" She whispered into my ear.
Lifting my chard lips high, I could still sense the energy within the heavens screaming. Ygg had said it was over, but that was far from true... There was one more coming.
"Aldrich, I will return! I will always return."
