บท 43: Chapter 43-End of Training in the Necropolis of the Gods
Ernst had been staying in the Necropolis of the Gods for five years. Presently, he is at the entrance to the sixteenth floor. With a long breath, he pass the and finally enters the sixteenth floor.
"Boom!" "Boom!"
"Philip, don't go too far. If you don't stop now, even if I die, I will let you die with me." An angry youthful Highgod wielding a sword shouted at the middle-age man looking Highgod carrying a spear.
"Hahaha...you will let me die with you? Ridiculous! Carlos, we've been fighting for many years, yet you didn't get an advantage every time we fought. Today, I will kill you." Philip unleashes a powerful aura of Highgod utilizing the Laws of the Wind.
In the distance, Ernst was watching the two Highgod fighting each other.
After entering the sixteenth floor, he heard a sound of fighting in the distance, so he immediately went to the location of the sound to watch the battle.
After watching for a short time, he noticed the spear wielding Highgod was just toying with his opponent. The spear wielding Highgod unleashed his most powerful attack.
"Bang!"
The sword wielding Highgod was hit by the spear in the head and immediately died. The spear wielding Highgod hurriedly collected his opponent's divine spark, weapon and interspatial ring.
"Hahaha..... Carlos you are finally dead. Don't worry, I will take care of your treasures. Now. Its time to deal with that rat." He looked towards Ernst direction and lock his aura. He flew towards Ernst location, only to be surprise. The spectator who was watching his battle against Carlos was just a God. Philip lost his interest, but decided to tease the God first.
The spear wielding Highgod Philip stop fifty meters from Ernst with a grin on his face.
"What have we here? A mere God from the lower levels dare to come here at the sixteenth floor for sightseeing?" Philip tease Ernst.
"Yeah, I just came for a tour, but I did not expect that I will witness a battle between two Highgods the moment I came in. But, my luck is excellent for you to personally meet me. I want to know how strong the Highgods in this floor compare to mine." Ernst started to provoke the Highgod.
The Highgod Philip was amused by Ernst response, but after hearing his last sentence, he was annoyed. "This God is challenging me. If news of this spread around the sixteenth floor, I'll become a laughingstock. If I did not teach this God a lesson, my status as a Highgod will become joke." Philip said to himself.
"Hahaha....that's the biggest joke I've ever heard." Philip turn serious as he glanced at Ernst. "Listen carefully brat, I've been living for millions of years and kill countless experts before being imprisoned in this place. Now, you want to challenge me with your pitiful strength."
"Yes, that's right. I want to challenge you. I believe your strength is at five star fiend, right?" Ernst is ready for battle.
"You are very perceptive about my current strength. That's right, I'm a five star fiend. Not just me, almost over a thousand Highgods imprisoned here were at this level, but there are strong and weak among the five star fiends. Since you provoke me, your going to die, I will tell you, I am one of the strongest Highgod here, so that you will not have any regrets dying in my hand. Hahaha......" Philip laugh maniacally and gather wind elemental essence and form it into a huge fist in his hand and punch towards Ernst. Since his opponent is only a full God, he did not use any weapon. He will toy the God to death.
Seeing the approaching fist made of wind elemental essence, Ernst sneers. The Highgod really underestimate him. He counter the Philips attack with his own punch.
"Boom!"
Their attack collided, causing a shockwave in the surroundings. Both of their attacks cancel each other.
Philip look seriously at his opponent and grin. "You are quite strong for a mere God, but don't be happy too soon. In my next attack, I will utilize my mastery of the Laws of the Wind."
Ernst also did not use his mastery of the Elemental Laws in his previous attack. "This Philip is a good sparring partner." He said to himself as he move towards his opponent.
"Swoosh!" "Swoosh!"
"Boom!" "Boom!"
Ernst and Philip move at the same time and clash once again. Both are equally match. The two of them did not budge after their attacks. They look at each other as they retreated.
"Hahaha.....you are quite amusing for a full God to survived two attacks from me. This time I will use my full power." Philip retrieved his spear from his interspatial ring, pointing it towards his opponent.
On the other hand, Ernst also draws his Blackshadow sword with a flip of his hand. He was slightly worried that his ordinary sword might get destroyed against the Highgod artfifact spear of his opponent.
A surge of wind elemental essence gather around Philip and his divine power have skyrocket. He trust his spear towards Ernst as countless spear shadows suddenly appears accompanying his attack.
"Swoosh!" "Swoosh!" "Swoosh!"
Ernst also unleashes his destruction divine power to the max as he slash his sword towards Philip.
"Swish!"
Ernst sword slash shatters every spear shadows on its way creating space ripple along its way as it continued move towards Philip without losing its momentum.
"Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!"
Philips spear attack, hit Ernst body with metal like ringing sounds. Ernst was fine, because his body is comparable to a Highgod defensive artifact, though he was push back twenty meters from his original position. But, Philips falls from the sky after being hit by his sword slash containing a soul attack and died instantly. Leaving a divine spark hovering in midair.
During their exchange, a big space crack was created around the two of them.
After collecting the opponent's corpse and weapon, Ernst left and conceals his aura. He flew downwards, after landing on the ground, he seated on the boulder and use his divine sense to scan the surroundings. He was not worried about other Highgods target him after his battle with Philip, after all fighting in this floor is very common.
After seating on the boulder, he took out Philip's corpse and destroy it into a powder, leaving an interspatial ring.
"Wow! This gentleman is wealthy. Approximately twenty billion inkstones, two Deathgod Golems, ten Highgod divine sparks, six Highgod artifacts and five Golden-Soul Pearl. This should be his accumulation for a long time. I just kill one Highgod and already get so many treasures. What about other Highgods?" Ernst laughs with a greedy look. After sometime, he already forgot about the treasures and replay his battle against the Highgod in his mind.
Earlier, he can defeat his opponent easily, but he let Philip exchange three moves with him to test how will he fare against a Highgod. To his surprise, he can fight them all with ease, even he is surrounded by thousands of them, he still can manage to defeat them.
"I should stay in this floor for at least two years and fight with Highgods until only half of them remains. I will rob them of their treasures, similar to what I did in the lower levels. Let's absorb the attribute bubble first." Ernst thought.
Four years later, Ernst is travelling towards the lower level from the seventeenth floor of the Necropolis of the Gods. During the past four years, he gain a lot of harvest. In terms of wealth, he have trillions of inkstones, thousands of Highgod divine sparks, tens of Deathgod Golems, over ten metallic lifeforms, a hundred of Golden-Soul Pearl and many other treasures, not mentioning what he got from the lower floors.
After battling over thousands of Highgods in the sixteenth and seventeenth floors, he finally managed to fused four Profound Mysteries in each Elemental Laws. Currently, he now has nine full God divine clones and one demigod divine clone. He has now the strength of a seven star fiend. Each of his divine clone and true body have a Highgod defensive, weapon and soul protecting artifact. His Blackshadow sword was replaced by a Highgod sword artifact.
Recalling his battle with six star and seven star fiends in the seventeenth floor, his Blackshadow sword was almost destroyed, so he decided its time to replaced it.
Reaching the fourteenth floor, he uses his divine sense to scan the entire floor and find if Dylin and the others are here. After sometime, he found them. Ernst has a big smile on his face as he saw them.
"Bingo! I found them, but their situation is not good. Being surrounded by ten Gods, they will not last long." Ernst hurriedly flew towards their location without hiding his aura.
"Boom!"
Dylin was smashed to the ground. As the only God in the group, he decided to fight while protecting his three companions.
"Cough!" "Cough!"
Dylin vomited blood. Currently, he can only barely stand. He glanced at his opponents with bitterness. "Am I going to die here? What about my childrens? Without me, they have no protection."
Seeing Dylin's condition, High Priest, War God and Cesar immediately surrounded Dylin to protect him.
"If Dylin dies, we will all die. It's better to die fighting together." War God O'Brien said while releasing a murderous aura.
"Well said, O'Brien. We already live for a long time. It's enough for me." High Priest said while looking at their enemies.
"That's right! I'm also tired of my lazy life." Cesar supported Dylin.
"Hahaha…..What a bunch of fools. You are just Demigods, yet you spoke such nonsense. Brothers, let's kill the three guys and capture the woman and play with her after the battle." A full God orders his companion while showing a lustful look towards the High Priest.
Suddenly.
"Rumble...."
The space within five hundred meters around them began to ripple. A youth with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a black warrior outfit, appear out of nowhere looking at them with a grin.
The gang of Gods surrounding Dylin and the others immediately froze and started trembling as they look at the familiar youth in midair. Recalling the massacre happened not long ago, their foreheads begins to sweat. They will never forget what happen before. Seven years ago, more than half of them died in his hands.
Ernst looks at Dylin's miserable condition then towards the High Priest, War God O'Brien and Cesar and smiles at them. He waves his hand, a white light envelop Dylin, healing his injuries quickly. "It's been nine years since our separation, I'm relieved to see that all of you are still alive." Then he look towards the gang of Gods with anger. "You want to kill my companions? It seems you never learn."
"Lo.....Lord. We did not know the four of them were your companions. Please forgive us." One of the Gods hurriedly speaks and kneels to the ground. The others also kneeled and beg for forgiveness.
"Very well. Tomorrow, gather every Gods in the three cities and come here. I have a job for you to do. If I'm not satisfied with your performance, I will kill all of you. But before that...." Ernst look at the God who shows a lustful look towards the High Priest. A gray needle made of deathly energy is release from his eyes hitting the unfortunate God, turning him to ash.
The other Gods was flabbergasted at the fate of the lustful God. They are thankful that they did not show such obscenity towards the woman or else they will be killed.
"Now leave." Ernst wave his hand and the nine Gods were thrown far away.
He walk towards Dylin, High Priest War God O'Brien and Cesar with a smile. With a thought, a table and chairs begin to emerged and form from the cold ice ground. "Lets sit and talk."
Everyone sits together, Ernst brings out wine and food. The High Priest break their silence and start talking first. "Thank you for saving us earlier. If you did not come in time, we might be dead already."
"Don't mention it, we are all companions from the Yulan continent." Ernst smile at the High Priest then look towards Dylin with encouraging smile. "Congratulations on promoting to a full God."
Dylin smugly smiles hearing Ernst. Though they are enemies in the past, they are still harmonious. "Thanks. But, I believe you become a God first before me, right?"
"That's right. Did you collect enough divine sparks for your children? Ernst asked.
"I already collect three destruction type Demigod sparks for my sons when we are still in the lower level." Dylin said casually.
"That's good to hear. Take these." With a flip of his hand, three God sparks, armors and weapons appears and move towards Dylin.
Dylin was stunned and surprise by Ernst gift. He and the other three braced countless dangers to collect treasures, but Ernst just gave it them casually. "Ernst what are these for?"
"Don't ask any question, just accept it." Ernst said calmly. Then he look towards High Priest, War God O'Brien and Cesar and he can see their anticipation.
"High Priest, War God, Cesar, I know you did your best finding your chance and its very tough seeking them in this dangerous place. So, please take these." Ernst flip his hand, three God sparks, weapons and armors move towards each of them.
Cesar couldn't hide his happiness and laugh loudly. "Hahaha...…..Thank you very much, Ernst."
High Priest and War God O'Brien also thank Ernst and happily accepts his gifts.
