章 84: Moon Slaughter!
After leaving Azure Cloud Continent, I flew to Wasteland of Death. I wanted to see if Azure Dragon God is alive and if I could reincarnate him.
It is too sad that he is not.
It seems like Yun Che got his hands on Azure Dragon God's legacy first. Now, a question arises, how?
He was not strong enough to reach here alone. The only reason I can think is that either Jasmine helped him or Canghui. Either way, he could have easily reached here with their help.
Well, it cannot be helped. If it was a girl, then I might become annoyed, but since he was a dude… Anyway, I should go and check the Moon Slaughter Nest.
Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign should have a part of <Law of Nothingness> on him.
Also, one of the strongest Heavenly Treasure is there – Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations!
Since my body is immune to all kinds of poison, there is no need for Sky Poison Pearl. But Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations is different as it allows me to poison others.
(A/N: MC has not read ATG after the Blue Pole Arc, so he does not know yet that to completely activate Myriad Tribulation Poison, Sky Poison Pearl is required.)
Also, its reputation as the second strongest destructive weapon in Primal Chaos should amount to something.
So, right now, I am on my way to Moon Slaughter Devil Nest.
I thought of leaving You'er before going here, but she denied it. She really does not want to leave me, such a cute girl.
AnBai, as usual, was following me silently. But I can tell that she is looking towards me from time to time. It seems something changed in her since our time 'together'.
After flying for an hour, we finally reached the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest. It was just a gigantic spherical barrier on the ocean.
Black miasma was surrounding it, making it look eerily and evil.
"Master, this place! I can feel the presence of Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations!" AnBai suddenly said, gazing towards the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest.
She holds my hand with worry-filled eyes as she said, "Please do not go in, master! It is dangerous there!"
It seems that Evil Infant has left some kind-of trauma on her mind during the war of Gods and Devils.
Pulling her in an embrace, I gently stroked her back and said, "It is alright, AnBai. Poison is ineffective on me due to my Bloodline. You should know that, no?"
She seems to calm down, hearing me. Separating from her, I gave a light peck on her lips and said, "Here, take care of You'er and wait here for me. I will be back soon."
She seems to be reluctant but still nodded and took You'er from my arms. She did not deny this time and quietly stood beside AnBai, staring at me.
Rubbing her head gently, I used Space Law and teleported inside the nest.
If from outside, it felt like it was evil, then inside was filled with evil. There was nothing but dense miasma inside.
It felt like if one is not careful, it will eat one away. Of course, this much will not hinder me in the least.
I started to fly towards where I can feel a presence. Soon, I reached the place and saw Netherworld Umbumbara Flower.
It had nine pellets on it, but only four were bloomed while others in the process.
Looking further, I could feel a presence that was completely different from any other presence; I have felt so far. It felt… more dark and sinister. Like if you are close enough to it, it would devour you.
"You can come out. I can feel your presence."
I used Primordial Energy on my voice, so it resounds all corners of Devil Nest.
Soon, a man looked to be in thirty came out of the cave further ahead.
Damn, he is tall. Did Oda create his character design?
He was five-meter-tall, with long black hair that reached up to his feet. His skin has already lost its color and become dusk grey, probably because he has not been in the sun for millions of years.
But I have to say, despite being giant, he is exceptional handsome from a human's perspective at least.
The man looks into my eyes. His eyes were excluding black glint as he said in a husky voice, "Who are you? Why would a Dragon come here for?"
Even if he tried to sound as composed as he could, I can still feel slight uneasiness in his voice.
Well, I am not surprised that he is cautious since his cultivation is that of Sovereign Realm while he can probably not guess mine.
And even if he did, he would be even more afraid as I am at Divine Origin Realm.
Smiling, I said, "Nothing, I was just talking a stroll and found this place. Since I am already here, I thought of visiting it. Who knew that I would found a devil here, a bone fid devil at that."
The man frowned when he heard me.
"Do not joke around, Dragon! You would not want to see me angry!"
He shouted and released his energy. Wow! Even though he is at Sovereign Realm, his energies density is reaching Half-Step Divine Realm.
How did Yun Che defeated him in the original story? All I can think of is plot armor. Since even if he is in a weakened state, he is still one of the True Gods.
Even with all advantages, with his experience alone, he should have been able to defeat Yun Che.
Hm, is it somehow related to so-called fate? I think I will look into it in the future, for now, "And what if I want to joke around?"
The man narrowed his eyes, and a manically grin forms on his mouth, "Then I shall eat you."
He said and vanished. I wonder if he is also an idiot? Since it is the cultivation world and all.
He appeared in front of me and throws a punch at me.
Damn, he is tall!
I also throw a punch. As both of our punches colloid, he was launched backward at a speed that broke through the sound barriers.
As the dust clears, the old man was visible to see now, with a deformed hand.
He seems to be surprised by my strength as he keeps glaring at me cautiously.
"Who are you? A Divine Realm partition should not exist on this plane."
He can gauge my strength, huh. I would expect nothing less from a billion-year-old man.
"Did I not said it before? I was just taking a stroll and stumble upon this place. Thinking that it was intriguing, I visited it."
"Just for that?" He seems to be surprised. He must be thinking about why I am not attacking him since he is a devil. And his next question confirmed it.
"Why are you not attacking me? Do you not want to kill me? Since I am a devil."
Shaking my head, I said, "It does not matter. As long as you have not to join Darkness, then, to me, you are just another living being that can control Dark Profound Energy."
When he heard about Darkness, his eyes widen for a second. Seems like he is also aware of it.
Seeing I have no malicious attentions, he sighed and sat on the floor. Ruffling his head, he said, "Do you have a drink or something? It has been a while since I had one. Billion years, to be exact."
Chuckling slightly, I appeared beside him and took <Ambrosia> from the Gate of Babylon. I never had a chance to drink it. I wonder if taste like it was described in myths.
Heavenly Moon Slaughter eyes fell upon the golden bottle of <Ambrosia>. He seems to sense the uniqueness of it too.
Sitting in front of him, I created two cups and poured it in them.
Its smell spread all around me. Heavenly Moon Slaughter eyes widen as I could tell that just from the fragrance, he was getting intoxicated – same with me.
What dangerous stuff!
Moon Slaughter took a sip and gasped with shaking hands, "What a Heavenly Drink! Where did you get it!"
"You can call me Wang Lei. As for the drink, well, leaving from where I got it, it is said that it was the favorite drink of Greek Gods."
"Greek Gods?"
Of course, he is confused. It seems like the drink is already taking a toll on me. I should use my energy to minimize the effects.
"Well, forget it. But you should be feeling better now, right? The drink should have a passive effect like that."
Hearing me, Moon Slaughter checked his body as his eyes widen. It seems that it is working.
According to the myths, <Ambrosia> was said to be conferring longevity or immortality. I highly doubt that it could grant immortality, but increasing one's lifespan greatly and healing him should work.
"What happened?! Is it because of this drink?!"
I can see that his skin was slowly gaining back its color.
"Of course! Did I not say it? This is the drink of Gods! Not anyone has access to it. Think of it as the start of our relationship." Of master-servant that is.
Moon Slaughter suddenly started to laugh boorishly.
"Good! Good, Wang Lei! I own you one for this. If in the future, if I ever left this place and you needed my help, don't shy away and ask me. Even if I have to jump in lava for you, I will do it! It is the promise of Moon Slaughter to you!"
He seems like an energetic guy and fun to talk with. It's been quite a while since I talk to a male like this. I wonder why there are not many males around me? Such mystery.
I think it is, probably because I am too handsome. Others cannot help but compare themselves to me, resulting in shattering their self-esteem.
"Why don't you do that now? If you want, I can help you in leaving this place."
He seems to be surprised at what I have said.
With a serious look, that would have looked one if not for the red hue on his face – due to being drunk – he said, "What you said, is it true, Wang Lei? If it is, then let alone one, I will serve you for eternity!"
Well, that makes it easy.
"I can create an infinite amount of <Ambrosia>, freeing you from this place would be easy."
Hearing me, Moon Slaughter bowed while sitting. It would have looked authentically wholesome if not for the drink that he was trying his best to protect.
"Then, if you do, then I, Moon Slaughter, shall serve you for eternity, Young Noble."
Smiling, I snapped my fingers. With the snap of my fingers, worldly forces came together and engulfed Moon Slaughter in it.
He was missing part of the soul and complete flesh; for that, he needed Udumbara Flower. But that should be unnecessary now.
A moment later, a crack formed on the cocoon – more and more cracks formed on it.
Soon, a fully healed Moon Slaughter comes out of it.
He checked his body with complete astonishment and excitement.
Chuckling, I said, "How do you like your new body? Is there anything wrong with it?"
With pure gratitude and reverence, he looked towards me and kneels, "There is nothing wrong with my body, Young Noble. I will forever be in your debt."
Waving my arm, I said, "Forget it. Just give me a drop of your essence blood."
Moon Slaughter did not hesitate and gave me a drop of his essence blood. Looking at it, I use <Analyze>
***
A drop of blood essence of True Devil:
It gives high affinity and comprehension towards Dark Profound Energy and its profound arts.
Warning: Users of this Bloodline have tendencies of a violent act. This factor can be removed if the user ascends to a higher realm and upgrades their Bloodline.
***
Intriguing… does that mean if he was at Creation God level, then there will be no drawbacks?
'You are right, master.' (Yue - system)
I see. Well, it does not matter to me.
<Upgrade>
Again, worldly forces come together and upgrade the blood essence.
<Analyze>
***
A drop of blood essence of Primordial Devil:
It gives high affinity with all elements; especially, dark. It upgrades the user bodies to a higher realm and keeps on upgrading as long as the user trains, he can reach unimaginable heights.
There are no drawbacks to this Bloodline as the user becomes a Primordial Entity.
***
Well… damn! That means that as long as one keeps on training, his Physique will also keep on improving, without any limits! A really powerful Bloodline, indeed.
"Y-young Noble, what is that?! What happened to my essence?!" He seems to be scared. Is it because of the pressure this blood is releasing? Interesting.
I move my hand and gesture to Moon Slaughter to come towards me. I cannot have a violent person under me now.
As he stood in front of me, I pressed my palm on his chest as the blood essence was absorbed in him.
"This – ahhh!" Suddenly, he started to scream.
I can hear the crisp sound of his bones breaking and recovering. I completely forgot that you have to go through a rebuilding process before becoming a Primordial Entity.
It seems that I have drank too much.
After a moment of screaming, Moon Slaughter finally calmed down.
Taking deep breaths, he observed his body that was more polished now.
All and any kind of scare that was presented on his body previously was now completely gone.
His body also seems to contract a lot, giving him a normal height of thirty years old man.
Moon Slaughter looked towards me, but this time I can see the fear in his eyes, "What… what happened to me, Young Noble? I feel more… how should I say… free now. As if something that was on my shoulders has been erased. I can also feel my connection with other elements is closer than before!"
No shit Sherlock! Do you think a Primordial Entity would be bound by worldly laws?
"Nothing, I just upgraded your Bloodline. Now give me another blood essence of yours."
He seems to calm down hearing me, but he still seems kind of afraid of me.
Did I scare him from my awesomeness? Can't be helped then.
Taking, now upgraded, drop of blood essence, I absorbed it.
Soon, I could feel a slight itch, and that's all. Since I have already gone through the process of becoming a Primordial Entity before. It does not seem to upgrade my body much.
After that, all we did was drink, drink, and drink. But since I kept using my energy to nullify the drinking effects, I was alright.
On the other hand, Moon Slaughter was lying wasted on the ground. Even though I told him not to drink much, he really does not listen to his master.
Well, it is time I take Evil Infant and <Law of Nothingness>. I do not want to make AnBai, and You'er worried for long.
