Chapter 979: Deicide (Part 1)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Saleen felt frustrated. There should have been something like a side temple right below the chasm. Just how come so many grade-9 creatures were crawling out of there? The fact that his elemental creatures had the advantage in terms of combat capacity was of little use, as the blue humanoid creatures were also grade-9, and they were too armed. Their advantage in numbers gradually shaved down the elemental creatures.

Saleen beat on the War Drum of Fear again with the bone mace, and thousands of pests emerged from the drum, flying outside the magic tower.

“Master, allow me!” Seeing how one blue humanoid creature could only be killed by thirty to fifty pests, Nailisi was struggling to just sit still.

The rate of fire of the magic cannon was reduced to once every ten seconds, but it was still considered fast. Seeing how quickly he was losing both the pests and the elemental creatures, he had no choice but to nod at her request. The Life Protection divine spell at the altar was nigh-impenetrable. Every attack cost one believer to keep the spell intact.

The altar had five-hundred and six believers, surrounding the divine baby and praying to her. The divine baby girl was even more anxious than Saleen. She was unable to think of a way out of her predicament while her believers fell one after another. She had no way of leaving the altar without being of adequate level. Even without the Shackles of the Fallen about her, the invisible shackle was still bound to her soul.

If it had not been so, she would have charged towards the magic tower out there and killed every single one of Saleen’s followers.

“Go.” Saleen was at wits’ end. It was not an option to sacrifice all of his elemental creatures. Nothing on the blue humanoid creatures’ bodies would have been of use to him when they were killed.

Nailisi thought for a moment and took the three-faced bone demon form, leaving the tower through the teleportation portal. She chose to use the Sword of Rules instead of her spear and began killing in the dark. The bone demon’s movements were definitely nowhere near as nimble as her imp form’s, but the weak light of the sword emanating from the Sword of Rules was nonetheless proven lethal against the blue humanoid creatures.

The bone shield in her hand was colored black by death magic. She hid behind the shield and went behind the pests. As soon as a pest was torn apart, she lashed out with her Sword of Rules. The bodies of the pests had been irregular, and she went to hide herself directly among the pests instead, putting her shield away.

The number of pests crawling out of the chasm up front became fewer and fewer, but thousands were still gathering around the magic tower nonetheless.

Nailisi was no mutated creature and her battle sense was as sharp as battle senses could have gotten. After killing more than a dozen of the monsters with the Sword of Rules, Nailisi began to be able to feel the divinity within the monsters. Despite being punished by the gods, the divine powers lingered within their bodies, which served as their source of life.

After fighting up close and personal for a while, Nailisi was able to tell the key point to it all. She put away the Sword of Rules and took out her Twelve Notes of Purgatory and Gray Memory. Both of the powerful equipment shone with pale light in Nailisi’s hands.

Nailisi wiggled her body and quickly took her devil form. Her devil form had not been eating much and was only about two yards tall. What differed from how the form looked originally was that there was yet another head, as well as two extra arms. She took out her bone shield and Sword of Rules again. She looked just like a shrunken devil.

After taking her devil form, Nailisi burst out of her hiding among the pests’ bodies. She went to the rear of the tower, as that spot was flooded with too many blue monsters. Nailisi thrust with her spear, with the flash from her thrust running through at least three monsters in front. There were also two arms behind her devil form, protecting her back. She then threw the severely injured blue monsters into her purgatory of the fallen.

As soon as the severely injured blue monsters entered the purgatory of the fallen, their connection with the divine baby was cut off completely. The divine power within them crumbled and they died right on the spot. Within the purgatory, the skyscraping trees lashed out with their roots and dragged the dead bodies into the soil, disintegrating and absorbing them.

Nailisi grew bold right there and then. The combat capacity of the blue monsters was way below the single-horned white whales’. Their defensive capacity was especially weak when compared in such a way. The flash from Gray Memory easily incapacitated them, and the severely injured blue monsters were in turn easily thrown into the purgatory of the fallen.

The purgatory of the fallen seemed to be something made specifically for fighting those creatures. The blue monsters lost all capacity for self-recovery after their connections with the divine baby were severed and dropped dead right there and then. Their bodies were then turned to fertilizer for the powerful plants within the purgatory.

The plants collected by Nailisi had been rendered extinct on many planes. Anything that was able to survive on the harsh battlefields, the seeds of which brought back by the humans, were all of formidable levels themselves. Some plants even developed the ability to attack proactively like magic beasts, being very tenacious themselves.

The plants even developed souls. Aini would not have been able to cultivate plant spirits otherwise.

Nailisi had no idea that the plants she grew in her purgatory of the fallen consisted of almost nothing but the most ferocious types. The few that did not come with high offensive capacities were still things that had shared symbiotic relationships with the powerful ones for hundreds of thousands of years.

Nailisi stabbed away with her spear. The dragon crystal magic nucleus housed within Gray Memory allowed her to have no restraints with her attacks. The blue humanoid creatures were of such great numbers that Nailisi had no need to use the six eerie eyes on the weapon. Every single thrust resulted in at least three creatures incapacitated and thrown into the purgatory of the fallen.

Within the purgatory of the fallen, other than the skyscraping giant trees at the very center, many plants began to grow at frightening rates. The powers lingering within the grade-9 creatures were so great that they sped up the plants’ growth by more than one-hundred times. The entire purgatory grew to have many colors, as the plants were very vibrant ones. Some even produced bright flowers. The creatures within the purgatory also began to fight among themselves for food, picking clean the grade-9 creatures that Nailisi threw into it.

In a space with thirty-six miles in length and width, the dead bodies of hundreds of grade-9 creatures were seen piling up. Nailisi’s image up in the air began to smile, as she too felt the growth of her power. The creatures below were providing power for her every single minute, allowing her to gradually build up and perfect the purgatory’s rules.

Nailisi’s emergence mitigated the crisis looming over the magic tower immediately. The grade-9 monsters that originally intended to climb up the tower were no longer a threat to the small window up in the seventeenth floor. Vinny hacked away patiently, and its grade-12 magic nuclei were eventually depleted. More than three-hundred grade-9 believers were left on the altar by then.

Saleen took out yet another seven pieces of magic nuclei without a care. Among all the magic nuclei given to him by the grandmaster, grade-12 nuclei were the most numerous. The numbers grew fewer as their levels grew higher. Saleen had no care of his expenditure of the magic nuclei, so long as he was able to kill the divine baby.

The divine baby girl’s wrath practically shot up to the heavens as she took the scene in. Her level of power after reincarnation was that of a pseudogod at the highest. She had no means of leaving the altar and had been able to do nothing but see personally how the magic tower deployed its cannon to again, attacking the Life Protection at the altar. Every single shot brought down one believer.

The divine baby girl stood and produced a low rumbling voice in her throat. Her believers shuddered in fear, having no idea what caused their god to become so irritable. The divine child came up to her previous body and took hold of the chains.

Black smoke rose from the Shackles of the Fallen, but it was the smooth, silky skin of the divine baby girl that burned to ashes, revealing the bones underneath. She took her hand back in a panic and glared at her original body. She was starving at that moment, and the energies within her body remained unruly, needing suppression urgently. She would be able to fully mature as soon as she ate up her original body.

Eating her originally body would also mean eating the brandings on it. The twenty-four chains would once again lash out to hold her body in place, preventing her from the leaving the altar ever again.

The twenty-four chains shackled not only her body and soul, but also her fate. Under the rules of the Shackles of the Fallen, it would have been useless even if she had advanced into the ranks of pseudogod.

“Who was the one who chained me up here? It was that peerless god of the plane!” The divine baby girl knocked on her head furiously, wanting to have the questions solved. There was no record nor hint as to why she had been chained up right there in her memories. It seemed like she had been practically born on the altar.

The other part of memory told her that she was someone who ruled the plane. She was adored, worshipped, and sung about by billions.

There seemed to be a gap in her memory, and the depth of that gap seemed to be something that even her immense divinity was unable to see through.

Her believers, numbering to over three-hundred, laid prostrate right there. The divine child turned around and looked at them, with an incredibly furious and eerie expression on her face. “Since all of you are going to die one way or another, how about…”

Vroom!

Another huge ripple was seen on the Life Protection, and yet another believer dropped onto the floor without a sound. The believer simply slumped where they were, looking like they had their bones pulled out of their bodies.

“O’ believers, I need your powers,” The divine child spoke, and that time, in pure ancient Myers language.

“Our peerless god like no other, your will is our way,” The believers answered.

The divine baby girl opened her mouth slowly. Her mouth became increasingly wide, stretching to a diameter of three yards, and produced a huge vortex of power. The believers at the altar did not resist. They were quickly swept up by the vortex and ended up devoured by the divine baby girl.

Such manner of devouring differed from that of her original body. She was able to gobble up all three-hundred believers and more in one go. Her stomach did not inflate to show the amount of beings she had just devoured, seemingly like there was another space within capable of taking in all three-hundred of them.

Boom…

The magic cannon shot right through Life Protection, hitting the divine child’s original body. It was rendered a mess of charred blood and flesh in an instant. The divine baby girl smirked coldly, as five green vines shot from her palm and penetrated the invisible barrier at the edge of the altar. She then pulled with all her might, flinging her body outside.

The divine baby girl was covered in blood, especially her torso and her arms, where the bones underneath were clearly seen. Gashes searing deep into the marrow were seen on her bones as well.

Green-colored energies burst forth from her body, enveloping her injured parts. She moaned in pain as she made her way to Saleen’s Magical Element Tower. Her body looked like a flash of green light, streaking across the long chasm.

“Nailisi!” Saleen summoned her at the top of his lungs. The demon was still fighting out there, while the divine baby had freed herself!
