Chapter 404: Vol5 Ch74: The Aspect of Mind
Translator: La0o9
Negary observed these six Righteous Gods. While he had met the clones of most of them, this was the first time he had truly seen Concealed Demise and Barren Shadow.
Concealed Demise was a mass of writhing darkness, everything that belonged to him was hidden inside that mass of darkness.
As for Barren Shadow, like an actual shadow, he appeared as a faint figure standing in the void of space. He appeared like a simple outline scribbled from pencil, but such a simple figure somehow contained an immense presence.
〖 Existence? 〗Negary slightly furrowed his eyebrows.
Barren Shadow’s Pathway seemed to be related to the concept of Existence; capable of affecting his own existence as well as others. It was for this reason that he had clearly descended during the Mana Banquet, but none of the other Righteous Gods detected him at all.
If Negary hadn’t observed information of the past and unexpectedly noticed an insignificant small detail, he wouldn’t have noticed him either.
「 Everyone, please voluntarily give up your authority within the Moon Tree world, this will be your final chance 」Eternal Heat continued radiating his temperature and radiance as always.
Standing on top of the withered Moon Tree and observing the figure pinned on the tree, he made his final declaration. He intended on taking complete control over the Moon Tree world this time, and no one would be able to prevent that.
『 Language will not waver our wills 』Mequik softly declared, then acted before anyone else. Countless tentacles from her lower body reached towards Eternal Heat from every direction, each of the tentacles contained large suction cups that were dripping with mucus.
As ‘Life’ and ‘Extreme Heat’ clashed, the true forms of these two Righteous Gods came into view of everyone. Life Bearer swung her ashen grey tentacles, each of which contained hundreds of thousands of suction cups that were all incubating a unique lifeform.
Each of these lifeforms still with their umbilical cords attached opened their eyes, then reached towards Eternal Heat. Their life structures weren’t the same as each other, each of them was an actual living breathing creature that even had its own consciousness and will.
Deep inside the radiance, Eternal Heat’s life structure that was hidden inside his light was also revealed, which was a perfectly round sphere of flesh. Countless fleshy bits writhed and moved, some vein-like feelers reached out and swung wildly, each swing unleashing an intense heatwave.
Meanwhile, at the base of the feelers, golden eyes opened one after another which began to shed a bright red fluid. Each of these eyes was larger than the average adult, while Eternal Heat’s body in the sky appeared to be the size of an entire metropolis.
Invisible fluctuations radiated into his surroundings which made it feel like everything around him was starting to burn. This was the expansion of his Pathway caused by Eternal Heat’s true form.
If it wasn’t for the Unrepenting Abyss’ unique structure, the mere appearance of his true form would have caused all the surrounding matter within this Space-Time to instant combust. Without anyone noticing, the gap between Eternal Heat’s strength and the rest of the Righteous Gods had widened.
Perhaps the greatest reliance of Eternal Heat wasn’t his allies, but rather himself.
As radiance and heat continued to rise around the sphere of flesh, Negary’s golden beads also continuously gathered to manifest the form of a three-winged dragon and charged towards Red Tears. He was very interested in a conceptual entity like herself, the embodiment of Infidelity as a concept. If he was able to capture her and study her Pathway, Negary was confident in being able to further advance his form of life.
For that reason, Negary chose Red Tears as his opponent. Now that she was in a weakened state, she was just enough for Negary to fight head-on. Since Red Tears was a living phenomenon, she only existed within a certain phenomenon without a particular form of life.
Countless eyes opened on top of the three-winged Dragon of Eternal Sin’s hand, his dragon claws reached into space and applied strength to rip it open, revealing an unknown space to Negary.
Flapping his tentacle wings, Negary directly entered this aspect of reality as even more eyes manifested around Negary’s body. This aspect of reality trended towards the mind, as Negary was able to observe the manifestation of each individual’s personality within this place.
For example, Negary himself appeared as a golden inverted growing tree, with countless branches continuously reaching outwards, spreading towards locations he had yet to reach, while the main tree trunk repeatedly spiraling upwards and advancing.
However, Negary’s mind seemed to have retrieved itself as he once again assumed the Dragon of Eternal Sin form. After all, this form was more suitable for battle.
In this place, Negary also witnessed the manifestation of the conceptual being Red Tears.
She appeared as a woman with an ever-changing face; two streams of bloody tears rolled down her cheeks while countless strands of her black hair were intertwined while reaching outward behind her back. At the same time, numerous wounds could be seen all over her body, as if it was patched together after someone chopped it apart.
『 Are you so sure that Eternal Heat will spare you after this? 』Red Tears giggled and spoke with an indescribable alluring tone, the sounds of which disturbed one’s mind with every echoing syllable: 『 That one isn’t known to be generous 』
〖 No, I can guarantee that he will definitely act against me after this, in fact, he might turn against me at the very next moment. However, that doesn’t disturb my temporary cooperation with him, nor my acting against you 〗Negary’s will wasn’t wavered at all, curtly removing the power of Irregularity within Red Tears’ words.
Of course, Red Tears’ power of Irregularity couldn’t be defended against with a so-called firm mind. Having achieved a Pathway with the power of Irregularity, Red Tears’ comprehension of it was extremely profound, even if your mind was firm, she would still be able to directly disturb your soul structure, or go even further and disturb the connection between your every aspect.
As the dragon flapped its wings to attack Red Tears, her black hair waved forward like a giant spider that wrapped around Negary’s claws, then tightly squeezed his flesh while it crawled inside.
As the power of Irregularity entered Negary’s body in an attempt to disturb Negary’s control over his body, she discovered that Negary’s body had been unified through a unique method that made him one, but also many.
This connection was so tight that Red Tears found it extremely tough to even waver it with her Irregularity, especially since Red Tears was currently heavily injured and was unable to fully utilize her Pathway.
The three-winged Dragon of Eternal Sin stood up on his hind legs. His dragon scales stood straight up, transforming into numerous tentacles that restrained Red Tears’ hair in return. The layers of teeth at his chest opened up to reveal a golden sphere that was continuously moving ainside. The power of Error and Impurity were mixed together here, combined with another type of power that obscured a certain piece of information between the two forces. This ensured that they would not fuse, but still didn’t interfere with the creation of their destructive force, thus making it controllable.
A dark ray of energy shot out from Negary’s chest towards Red Tears, causing everything that approached it to completely collapse. At this point, not even The Unreachable Gate would be able to affect this attack, as anything that came into contact with this force would collapse under its power.
