Chapter 151 All Life Sequence

Hey Guys. New Week, new chapter. New Fanfic.

That's right. I'm posting the New Fanfic today in an hour. Please read, comment, tell me what you think and Support me if you like it. You should see the new fic cover in my written works in ten minutes at most.

I've tried my best to make sure that this new one is way better.

As I was saying, new week, Powerstones people.

....

How powerful was the Anti Life Equation?

The answer would be ... Unknown.

As no one had ever seen it being used in action since the creation of this multiverse itself.

Only stories, myths, and legends could be found at best.

This could be confirmed from how Darkseid spent the majority of his life searching for the equation with no substantial proof that it existed.

He discovered pieces of the life equation. Hence he concluded that the opposite must exist.

It was that simple.

This directly led to the destruction of countless worlds in countless universes in search for a weapon that may never be found.

The destruction of those words might have happened either way due to the nature of the God of Tyranny, but still.

What made it worse was that the very thing he had been searching for was within his own home planet all along.

There would be a time when Darkseid would gain possession of Anti-Life alongside a certain number of people.

Using its power for their own nefarious purposes. Or simply not using it at all.

It was powerful, there was no doubt about it as the antithesis of free will itself.

But like everything in the universe, simple acquisition didn't make its user invincible.

As will could be enslaved, it could also be released.

And the counter for Anti-Life was quite easy to obtain if you knew the right people.

The Forever people that is.

Their New Genesis symbol representing free will was the key to resisting Anti Life.

Not many knew this. Not many people knew of Anti Life at all.

That was its natural counter. But as the new possessor of Anti-Life, Amari couldn't have that now, could he?

A circular rune pattern appeared beneath Ares's feet. Following which, strands of Antimatter energy was extracted to form glyphs.

These glyphs floated under Amari's gaze as he observed them with slight scrutiny.

'Evolve'.

His singular thought immediately caused drastic changes in the surroundings. The rune exuding large amounts of Antimatter energy suddenly began to twist and deform.

The dark orange energy spun around for barely a few moments before the color changed into a dark red base.

A large amount of power was extracted from Amari's energy reserves. One so large that it was noticeable even for him.

Ever since the day he used the power of the old Gods as a bypass to access more energy from the Godsphere, he never had to worry about insufficient energy problems for a long time.

Now it seemed he was oversimplifying things.

Just to improve the Anti-Life equation on its original basis, more than one third of the energy he could harness was diminished.

Of course, this could be attributed to his intentional limited access.

The Godsphere was a plane of nigh infinite magical power.

Every realm that could be found within it basically radiated with different forms of energy.

Like a Cultivation universe or a world undergoing the revival of spiritual energy. With Spiritual Qi abundant in the air and the likes.

Mystic, Order, Chaos, Dark, Light, Negative, Solar, Cosmic .... Almost everything you could think of, it had it all.

This was because it was connected to a much larger source of energy.

The Source itself.

But different beings had different needs and used different types of energy.

Chaos and Order power were reserved for their respective lords and those with a natural affinity for them.

Cosmic energy was basically the property of those god like entities and actual gods themselves.

The very nature of these things differed but at their roots, they were basically all one and the same.

Magic.

Amari was different.

It mattered not which sub version of magic energy he harnessed. All were welcome and all would be swallowed regardless when it came.

This was how his connection to the Godsphere was formed.

He was like a sponge with an endless absorption rate.

Ever since that day, he had never intentionally drawn energy to expand his reserves.

Simply letting it accumulate on its own with time due to several reasons.

The most important being .... It would cause multiversal outrage.

After all, he wasn't the only one in need of magical energy. Many realms within the Godsphere also ran on the magical energies it provided.

If he sucked it all dry, then those multiversal bosses would definitely come find him.

He already met Death ... He certainly didn't want Dream of the Endless, Destiny or Desire to come over for a nice chat.

Absorbing all energy would also lead to the decline of magic. There would be no more magical energy for those wizards, sorcerers, New Gods and the likes to use across all universes.

He would simply become the public enemy of the Multiverse causing everyone to unite to stop him just like they would against the Darkest Knight.

Perhaps even The Presence might make an appearance.

Of course, that much power would put him on the level of nigh invincibility ranking him among the upper top ten figures in the DC universe.

After all, his power laid not in strength or speed or invulnerability.

But that wasn't something he would do. After all, there were other ways to gain what he wanted without becoming the public enemy of all magical creatures in the multiverse.

Nevertheless, becoming the public enemy of a specific group of people was inevitable.

'Looks like I'll have to pay a new energy source a visit'.

But now wasn't the time to think about that.

As at the moment, the evolution was complete.

The orange rune glyphs floating in the air turned pitch black in an instant.

From within them, waves of ominous energy were emitted constantly into the atmosphere.

Unlike everything else, it was the only thing given free movement at this time.

It happened then.

From the floating rune glyphs, countless dark threads shot out in all directions as they proceeded to wrap around Amari.

The latter didn't resist as the process unfolded.

In the time freeze where everything remained motionless, gusts of wind began to rage around with Amari and countless black threads at the center.

The bodies of these black threads released a red glow running through them as they continued to rage on and on.

A strange aura immediately enveloped the atmosphere.

If death and despair had a signature feel, then this was undoubtedly the prime experience.

Finally, moments later, the overall phenomenon came to an end.

Sensing the disappearance of one third of his power and the changes in the Anti Life Equation, Amari examined his new power with interest.

'... Well then, you're no longer fit to bear the name Anti-Life anymore. Are you.....'?

Feeling the information on what he had just evolved, his eyelids couldn't rise any higher than they already were.

'In that case ... I'll call you the All-life Sequence from now on'.

Amari's problem with Anti-Life was the fact that it could be broken.

And now, he had changed that. Without his personal will, nothing in the multiverse could change those enslaved with his ability.

Of course, this was theoretical.

'Actual results could only be unearthed when placed against beings of similar power scale trying to undo it'.

Thinking to this point, he raised both hands to eye level.

Darkness.

The glyphs were gone. And in its pace when mobilizing what was once Anti-Life, was the dark aura he was currently exuding now.

'I only know what it does. In that case ….'.

He turned his thoughts back to his original intention.

'... Then let's begin testing ...'.

Amari's thought, his eyes locked on the immobilized old God.

At the moment, Ares felt cold.

The energies that appeared before literally sent chills down his spine.

And ominous premonition of a not so simple death was already taking root.

Snap!

It was a clear, resounding fingersnap.

And the next course of events explained its purpose.

The circular orange rune below Ares instantly turned dark, as if being corrupted with something even more vile than itself.

Dark threads shot out of the circle, entangling the God Of War from head to toe.

'Wait … What is this …. No ..... No …. Nooo'. He roared at the top of his lungs.

Or at least he tried to. As even when he was swallowed by the All life sequence, the old God never uttered a word.

All that portrayed his state of mind at the time were his eyes filled with despair as the darkness swallowed him up.

In the time freeze, all returned to stillness.

Everything was the same way it was before. With the exception of Ares being swallowed into what now looked like a cocoon.

Amari's eyes were fixed on this. Watching intently at what his new ability would birth.

It didn't keep him waiting for long. Barely a few seconds later.

The cocoon suddenly burst apart, releasing a flood of divine energy.

Amari's hair blew restlessly with the dispersing energy, but his eyes remained as bright as ever.

'Divine energy .... This much …'. His thoughts were cut short by what followed.

With the dispersal of the dark cocoon, a figure decked out in black armor now stood floating on thin air.

Pitch-black armor, spiked war helmet …. A long black cape extended from the back point, billowing endlessly even though there was no wind.

A strong sense of oppression oozed out of his very being as he did nothing more than simply standing where he was.

Who else would it be apart from the God of War?

However, there were noticeable differences.

The energy Ares exuded now was tyrannical. Far surpassing what he had just shown a few minutes ago.

His red pupils were gone, and in its replacement were two pitch-black eyes that seemed to carry endless darkness.

Streaks of red adorned the gaps in his armor as the three-meter tall giant of a god lowered its posture.

Then ..... It fell on one knee midair.

"..". Silence.

Looking at the previous God Of War now kneeling before him, a feeling that Amari hadn't felt so explicitly ever since his "creation" came upon him at this moment.

Was it ... Pride? Or satisfaction?

He didn't know, but the smile that was tugging at the side of his lips was all that was needed to explain his current mood.

'Well then ..... You ride with me now….'.

He had barely finished his thoughts when a new development emerged.

Memories ....

Images of The Battle Of Olympus, the fall to the earth, his early years, his middle years ...

Ares's life memories suddenly poured into his mind, displaying everything the old God had been through throughout his lifetime.

"...". Amari felt his eyelids twitch.

This..... Was an unexpected development indeed.

The process was completed in a flash. Thousands of years of life experience flashed by in less than a second, coming up until the most recent ones.

There and then, he saw something that made him frown.

"Connor Kent, Lokee?" It has barely been a few hours since Ares appeared in this universe.

If he remembered right, it wasn't even up to two months since that clone was resurrected.

What the hell had he gotten himself into again?

And who the hell was Lokee?

'Hold on .....'. Amari's eyes widened at that moment.

He had gotten caught up in the evolution of the Anti life equation that he seemed to have forgotten something.

Moving his gaze, it was soon fixed on the giant creature that was trapped in the time freeze, quite similar to everyone else.

Of course, there was a clear difference.

Unlike the teens, Superman and pretty much everyone else on this world, this .... Creature, while trapped, wasn't unaware of what was happening around him.

Just like Ares.

Amari squinted his eyebrows, looking quite thoughtful.

Following which, his eyes glowed.

The next moment .... A wave of energy emerged out of the void and shot towards the giant frozen in the distance.

Without much thought, Amari released his new All life Sequence to engulf the enemy to create a new Anti Life soldier.

Unfortunately...

The wave of sequence rules had just emerged from the void when torrents of chaos magic emerged from the body of the giant creature.

Large amounts of Chaos energy were forcibly expelled at once without restraint into the surroundings.

And with this act, the Ancient God Lokee managed to escape the constraints of time freeze.

The moment he did, his massive body shrunk down with massive speeds as the released Chaos magic converged to form a shield of large proportions.

The power that was once Anti-Life collided with the Chaos shield, causing it to tremble. Fortunately, it held firm.

Seeing this, Lokee turned his gaze back to the one floating in the sky with an unsightly expression on his face.

Looking at his Chaos magic being constantly eroded, it was no wonder his face wasn't the slightest bit good-looking.

As an old God, one of the oldest still alive. He knew exactly what these black threads were before they became ... This.

Anti Life, hailing from the Antimatter universe. Someone had actually gained control of this cursed formula.

And as if that weren't bad enough, he had altered it.

He knew this clearly. After all, he saw the whole process with his own eyes.

This made his grim face grow even darker.

Had the universe grown so dangerous while he was sealed?

Someone existed that could modify the Anti Life Equation at will.

Lokee didn't know what exactly Amari had done. But he would be damned if he allowed those black threads to get anywhere close to him under any circumstances.

The chaos barrier as wide as a hundred feet with him standing at the absolute center was enough to price how wary he was.

Amari looked at the opponent resisting with a special gleam in his eyes.

This was someone on the level of Darkseid.

His ability to escape from a time freeze was enough to highlight this point.

However, the latter had not escaped unscathed.

Amari was sure of this.

The once powerful momentum had weakened to considerable lows.

As the one experiencing it, Lokee knew his own situation better than anyone else.

He had just gained this new body, then he was forced to damage it by overloading himself with chaos magic to break free from a time freeze.

Feeling the waves of energy constantly eroding his Chaos magic, Lokee quickly made a choice.

"We will meet again. This …. Is not over".

Following which, he diverted the rest of his power to tear open a crack in space.

Amari watched as the opponent fled before anything substantial actually happened.

He made no efforts to stop it either.

He was here for Ares, and his goal was completed.

For the Ancient God whose background dated back to the second world, Amari held no interest.

After this, he was in no mood to go through another round of catching and killing ancient beings of old.

If he wanted to kill someone, there were plenty of loose ends waiting for him to tie up once he returned to Earth.
