chapter 4 the ancient one

She did everything she could in the last few hours to prevent the fracture from widening, but nothing seemed to work.

Since she had already expended 20% of her power and nothing had altered, everything she did was a waste of magic energy, and the crack just grew larger with each passing minute.

The sky cracked loudly as the gap slowly widened. The woman was still persevering; with just a wave of her palm, she produced thousands of floating spheres. She tossed it at the crack, but before it could make contact, her magic was abruptly engulfed by a dark gleam.

When she witnessed the barrier particles of her domain crash through the ground with a significant impact, she felt her heart sink. For an hour, this process was repeated, As if thousands of meteors were descending to the domain.

The barrier ultimately gave out since it could no longer support itself. This time, a large, weighty barrier was crashing through her territory. She raised her hand and a crimson transparent barrier was instantly created, but she only shielded herself and left Daniel defenseless.

Bang! Crash! Boom!

A deafening collision occurred. When she opened her eyes, she discovered that her barrier was covered with dirt and tree limbs. She thrust his hand at the air and the barrier grew larger and shoved the debris out.

She instantly checked her above. But she only saw total darkness, however, After a brief period, a vague light suddenly shone on the contrary side of the crack.

She focused her gazes on the light and a moment later, "that's a universe," she said as her legs violently wiggled.

But all of a sudden, the number of universes rapidly arose until she couldn't count them anymore. She was taken aback when her brain sent her knowledge at this precise instant. She said with a tone full of fear, "a-a generation 0 god."

She never thought that these supreme beings still exist. she unintentionally browsed this information, when she came across a book on the ancient battlefield.

The deity thereafter made a conscious effort to alter her look. Her height soared until she was 60 meters tall, at which point the neighboring crimson particles gathered and swiftly generated an armor that quickly latched through the goddess's body.

She then stamped her foot, setting off an earthquake that caused a red spherical gateway to materialize on the ground and slowly release a huge angelic wand. She was now prepared to fight, even though she was aware that she couldn't possibly win in the first place, but since her life was in jeopardy, she had no alternative but to succeed or perish.

A single generation 0 god could easily annihilate 100 new gen gods, according to what she read back then. She had been extremely afraid of them in the past, but never once did she think that the creature she was so terrified of would hunt her.

She gaggled her saliva as she tensely observed the crack. Even just sensing the aura it generated made her feel weak; it was so erratic and potent that it even made it difficult for her to breathe. She believed that the new generation of gods was only regarded as mere toys for them.

Her eyes suddenly detected a movement, even though it was vague she knew it was massive since the other universe got blanketed with it. She took on her fighting form and grasped her wand firmly. After a little while, the opposite side had grown black once more.

A huge, black, air-like finger then encroached on her territory. When she saw the finger entering her domain, the time seemed to go extremely slowly, she plopped to her knees on the ground. Despite being 60 meters tall, she was unable to reach the full height of the nails or even half of them.

Fortunately, the beast couldn't enter since it was too huge to fit in. When the goddess realized this, she quickly stood up and took advantage of this opening to launch an assault. She smashed her wand through the ground, then 15 circles full of ancient lining began to glow in the ground. As the glowing circles grew larger over time, the soil around them slowly gathered to form a red humanoid shape.

"come forth, holy blood soldiers!"

"Attack the hand with everything you have!" she ordered her minions, and then she gripped both of her hands tightly. "blood blade!"

Thousands, no, millions of red blades appeared in the sky, she then made them collide at the finger, creating a tremendous noise and dusting the area.

She kept doing it for a few minutes until the finger was completely covered in dust.

The hand abruptly twitched which caused a violent earthquake, sending all the dust away. The woman observed how the finger shrank and altered quickly. She felt more desperate as she realized this change and intensified her onslaught.

The goddess made numerous attempts but was unable to harm the finger in any way. And as a result, the creature had finished its alteration.

He had grown to a height of 65 meters, and his body had taken on the appearance of black air, but it was solid, as though all the air had been compacted into one. He was missing a mouth and had two red eyes. He had pointed ears and a long, twisted horn on top of his head. While large wings were intact on his back.

The man's eyes rolled creepily as he began to survey his surrounding. Subsequently, his eyes landed on Daniel who was guarded with a black transparent shield. His expression remained unchanged. "so the game finally begins," said the man, using an ancient language.

He glanced at the terrified woman who was writhing on her knees. He disappointedly clicked his tongue when he noticed this. The man mucked, "Are you a god? Very disgusting. It damaged my pride to see this. Fortunately, I can't enter the divine realm or I'll murder you all."

Her pride was shattered to pieces as soon as she heard this. She wanted to talk back yet all her body parts were terrified to even move.

The man raised his hand and magic energy began to circulate through his palm, gradually making a black sphere. The goddess could feel her instincts driving her to flee as quickly as possible. But her body was no longer obedient to her commands.

The man gently released the sphere, and when it reached the sky. All the dirt, tree, and other debris flew at the sphere, even the light was unable to escape. The goddess dominion was consumed in half within 30 seconds as the sphere continued to absorb the area.

Then, with a serious expression etched on his face, the man averted his gaze to the sphere and looked at the woman. "We're going to be the first sacrifice," the man announced.

As she shuddered and thought about the man's comments, her fur stood up. She pleaded for mercy as tears welled in her eyes, but the man paid her no attention.

The man whirled his hand at the air and murmured in an antiquated tongue.

The woman hugged the man's feet and begged for compassion with a sour look on her face. The woman was kicked by the male after he had had enough, sending her flying and crashing to the ground violently.

After a little while, the man's hand began to glow with colors of every hue, including those that humanity had not yet discovered. He felt as though something was sucking his body away, and he instantly became frozen. He suddenly realized that he was out of time.

He vanished like a shadow before abruptly resurfacing in front of the goddess. He raised his left hand and Daniel's body started to glide towards his palm. He clasped the goddess's head with his right hand and on her head, countless letters started to appear and slowly engulfed her entire body.

As Daniel drained the goddess' life essence, her horrible cry emanated across the location. Not only was the goddess' life force being absorbed, but also the guy, and this domain energy was entering Daniel's body.

Everything had been consumed to oblivion after 30 minutes of absorption. A sphere made of every hue was the only object present, and it was bouncing and orbiting Daniel's body. Then it entered Daniel.

Daniel's body slowly decomposed into ash as the ball entered his body, transforming him into a ball of light.
