Chapter 1049 Progress Through Fighting.

contemporary romance

The Vampires can't hunt him now since it is still daytime. The wood elves on the other hand are already rallying. It will only be a matter of hours before more Origin gods are sent after him.

He has until nightfall to do something or the entire Underdark will become hostile to him. The Underdark is their home ground after all. The wood elves might not be able to enter the underdark easily but that is no consolation to him.

"There is no use waiting for death. If I am going to go down, then I'll bring everyone down with me."

He might die soon, but he will at least make sure to be a thorn in the neck of everyone on the plane. His plan doesn't need him to die. The danger to his life is when the plan fails. But he is willing to do it anyway and risk his life just to trouble everyone else.

He thought about the demon god and the look on its face when it finds out what he did. He thought about the wood elves and the look of terror on their faces. He pictured blood draining from the pale bloodless faces of vampires and he couldn't help but snicker.

He reaffirmed his Will. "Is it not death? I am not scared of death. If I die, it will be on my own terms. That is how I like it."

His eyes glinted sharply as he made up his mind. His form morphed and he returned to his humanoid form. His pale white form has acquired another spread of tattoos on the skin of his torso. The tattoo is red and vivid. It looks like someone drew something on his body with blood.

His three eyes searched for his target again. He found it quickly thanks to his third eye.

He observed to himself. "It seems to have shifted. That isn't natural."

He knows where he last saw them but their position has shifted. They are still down in the earth but their location seems to have shifted to the right.

What he saw didn't discourage him. "Someone is actively trying to hide them. It won't matter who when everything goes up in flame. Everyone will suffer together."

He produced a large black phantom maw from his hand. The maw is more than 100 meters wide. It is not translucent like the previous ones that he used to produce as a mana entity. It is thick and sturdy like the toughest rock. It also doesn't need to bite to devour things. Everything around it is being actively drawn towards the mouth where they disappear for good.

He shrunk the maw down into a small black orb. He also produced two more maws which he shrunk down to create a total of three small orbs. He made the small orbs revolve in a circle while activating them to their maximum limit.

The space within the circle and outside of it was darkened and flickered because of the devouring force. It is because the devouring power of the three orbs amplified each other. The space around the orb was forced to bend and funnel matter into the three orbs. It formed a zone of devouring around the three orbs.

He then pushed this configuration downwards toward his target. The soil and air along the way were ripped apart and devoured at a much faster rate. It is faster than when he used a single black orb and concentrated all his power into it.

The sight of achievement made him nod in appreciation. "I am getting better at this."

He just got his divine ability so he has not yet fully mastered its full capabilities. He knew how to use it instinctively when he got it and he also had some of Gator's memories about how it works. But his divine ability is different from those of Executioners. He can create more than one maw at a time so it has more potential.

"II should fight more. Fighting does help to bring out the full potential."

He used to rely on a single maw when he first became a transcendent. Then he developed the black beam that utilized many maws when he fought Marlinto. He got the idea to create a field of devouring that amplifies each maw when he fought the Origin gods. The sight of the beads amplifying each other when they devoured the forest of vines inspired him.

The three beads cut through the ground as if parting water. There was no significant resistance against them whatsoever. It is different from the situation earlier when he was digging towards Marlinto. His bead of devouring dug a way for him. But it had to actually struggle to do so.

They are currently so fast that he is practically flying through the ground unimpeded as if he were flying through the air. He will be able to reach his target very soon.

A spiritual force of some kind latched onto his divine sense as he was digging toward the doom of the plane.

"Who is this?" He said in annoyance.

He is annoyed that someone he doesn't know has found him and also forcefully initiated a conversation with him. If they can do this, then they can watch him with their divine sense without his knowledge.

The voice said, "I am the one they call the fountain of life."

That startled him. He didn't expect to hear from the great and powerful fountain of life who shaped the course of history and made the weaker wood elves become the overlord of the plane.

Then he smiled. He asked, "To what do I owe this honor?"

"You are not stupid Ragnarok. You know why I am speaking with you. Don't play dumb with me." It said in irritation.

Yes, he knows why the fountain of life has initiated this conversation. He is not stupid after all. That doesn't mean he will make things easy for the fountain of life. He will have fun because that's all he wants from it. He is not going to change his mind.
