The Ultimate Devourer The Fire God's plan
Deep down inside the Fire Heaven, under the power of the artificial sun that oversaw the throne room of the Fire God...Thousands of Fiery Seraphims with half-elementalized bodies were kneeling in front of a gigantic throne shaped like the sun.The light refracted from the artificial sun that was powering up the Fire Heaven, going directly onto the throne and creating a mirror image there.In the image stood a tall man with golden long hair that reached his back. He had white sideburns and a small goatee.His left eye was blue, while his right eye was golden. He wore imperial Chinese armor made from flames and runes that covered his whole body, leaving only his head free to be seen.The power he exuded with his presence alone made all of the kneeling Seraphims start trembling, while the stronger angels hid in the shadows that the throne made, only looking like specks of red wisps.A majestic voice came from the mirror image as it said:"Go and fight for the peace of our heaven, go and
The Ultimate Devourer Pushing through the limits
I knew that nothing good would happen if the Fire God got his hands on Shira's body. The compatibility between the Divine Energy and the Phoenix body would create a monster that would be impossible to deal with!The barriers around me started to tremble as I unleashed power beyond what my body could hold.The cracks on them which were healing at an alarming rate started to appear more and more, making the recovery of the barriers seem slower and slower, but that was just an illusion.The healing rate was the same, it was just that the cracks appeared at a very higher rate than before.Blood started to seep out of the corner of my mouth as I roared:"HAAAAAAAAAAAA"I slashed with my sword which I already took out of my armor's spatial storage dimension.The barrier in front of me cracked and broke as I left through the opening.But there was still another barrier that separated me and Shira!Shira had been fighting it out with the duo of Archangels, easily being able to repel them to t
The Ultimate Devourer Pure Energy
The heartbeat that sounded like a drum made my ears hurt as I grabbed them, Shira looked at me as she moved her head backward before asking: "What is wrong with you?" She could see that I was in pain, and yet she wasn't, which was very strange. My eyes widened as I shouted: "Move back!" At my words, she understood something wasn't right so Shira did as I told her. The Fire God's elementalized body was slowly being shed as the fiery heart in his chest continued to beat at quick speeds. The brains that were previously splashed onto the surroundings had already turned into watery mist due to the continuously increasing temperature around us. I could feel sweat starting to drip down from my skin which turned pinkish. The sweat turned into steam as the moisture was immediately annihilated by the continuously increasing heat of the surroundings. I gritted my teeth as I activated all of my strengthening techniques at once, my soul grew brightly inside my body as the two brains worke
The Ultimate Devourer The resilience of a God
I asked Shira to get off me, my body was weakened and injured from being caught in the explosion's aftermath, but I could still move.Shira's eyes trembled as she moved her phoenix body off me, letting me see what had happened to the surroundings.The previous Heaven was filled with flaming life, birds, trees, and buildings here and there.But now nothing was left in the aftermath of the Fire God's self-destructive move.Everything was still made of fire, including the ground, but the intensity and power of the fire had died down gradually, letting it simmer to the point that the previous Divine Energy that existed in the air had already died down to a level that it couldn't activate the law-suppressing powers of the Divine Fire Heaven.My body shook slightly as I powered up, breaking all the laws that were currently suppressing some of my capabilities.My healing power recovered, making me cough out ashes made from my internal organs that were burnt from the inside by the immense exp
The Ultimate Devourer Law stalemate
My soul darted around inside my body as I was quickly thinking of any ways to break the laws that were currently binding my body.I could feel that The Fire God's hand was inching too closer for comfort on Shira.My whole body trembled as blood started to break from my skin, there was a backlash from trying to forcefully break the laws that were holding onto my being.Laws... Fire...My soul exploded into a mist of energy as it engulfed my whole body, down to the cells, finally being able to see the laws that were currently binding everything down.The laws were almost invisible due to how small they were, but after focusing my soul and scattering it into mist, I was able to finally see the Fire laws that were previously blocking my attempts at breaking them.The laws were like small worms that were digging into my cells, breaking them apart and assimilating them, keeping me paralyzed in place because of my regenerative capabilities creating new cells that the laws were continuously d
The Ultimate Devourer The way back (Part 1)
We were surrounded by stars as I felt the gazes from beyond look at us, and my glance toward the other four Heavenly Kingdoms informed me of what I needed to know.They were already crumbling, so Alliron and Aratas should be on their way out as well...I sighed as I sat on Shira's neck, I patted it slowly as I told her to fly forward, but the surroundings started to shake slightly as I felt the space around us start to solidify.I narrowed my eyes as I understood that my fears were true, we were being ambushed by the other individuals who were eyeing our planet and the World Tree!Shira's phoenix cry rang out as she angrily spat out flames that she fanned using her wings forcefully.The flames started to eat through the spatial blockade, almost like termites through the wood.A lazy voice could be heard coming from the void, saying with a surprised voice:"Hmm? Awakened phoenix flames? So this young lady had already undergone her awakening process..."Out of the surrounding stars, a t
The Ultimate Devourer The way back (Part 2)
Our showcases of the last vanguards didn't deter any of the enemies that were around us.I could still feel their gazes linger on my and Shira's bodies, hoping to see any weaknesses or feel the amount of energy that we had drained against the Fire God when we fought him.These outsiders weren't dumb, they knew that our strength was relatively high if we were able to invade and kill a Fire God avatar.But they were also greedy. They wanted a pass onto our planet so they could get their hands on the treasures that existed on it.I knew that there were quite a lot of ingredients and items that could be useful for training, but I never needed them due to my special circumstances.However, for others, these items could be like life-giving elixirs that would make their power soar to new levels.I didn't care about these outsiders and their goals, but their actions would bring the evolution of our planet down since they would most likely try to get what they wanted through violence, not trad
The Ultimate Devourer Barred from entry
Our movement forward lasted for a bit of time before we were attacked again, but the new enemies didn't even last for a few seconds before they entered my belly.I shook my head slightly as I thought that I would get some entertainment from these weaklings.They were only here to probe the strength of the planet's top dogs so their higher-ups could decide whether to attack or not.We were slowly getting near the planet as the world tree's crown was getting bigger and bigger in our view, and so were the planet's ocean and the four continents.The closer we got to the planet, the faster my two hearts started beating, making men narrow my eyes as I patted Shira's head and told her to stop.I looked around using my strengthened soul-searching ability before I realized that there was nothing out of the ordinary, no ambushes left either.The vanguard had already scouted out whatever they needed to learn from me and Shira, so there was no reason to thin their numbers more than they already h

The 'Heroes' of the universe fall? (Finale)
(WARNING, VERY LONG CHAPTER AHEAD!) The devil's red eyes were hypnotizingly horrid as they taunted me insidiously. The way he raised his eyebrow as he kept the leaders of the alliance bay e made me know that he was slowly getting his strength back. Sooner or later, he would be able to push both of them back and kill them! His body language told it so, the facts told it so, and the two alliance leaders knew it as well, it was obvious from the perspiration that was flowing down from their foreheads that things weren't as good as they seemed on the surface. Was death that close to me? I could feel blood gurgling in my throat as the devil sent a claw through space to immediately appear in front of my throat and pierce it. However, my instincts were still as sharp as ever, so I was able to barely take a step back before the claw would fully penetrate my throat and tear it out. I glared at the offending appendage that almost ripped my throat out, but a finger snap made the insides of
Waiting for reinforcements in vain
The devil didn't have enough time to retrieve all of his fragments, thus stopping at the strength of around 24 mastered laws. However, this amount of strength was still too high for me to deal with. The two alliance leaders nodded at each other before looking at me and saying: "You have done your best, but your incompetent allies dragged you down, you can go now, there is nothing you could do in this type of fight anymore." I wanted to leave since I was given permission, but could I? The devil's red eyes targeted me immediately after he regained his bearings from being hit by the dual uppercut. "You... yes, the fragments told me about you." "You have interfered with me countless times, do you think that I will let you go that easily?!" The devil opened his mouth and started to spit flames at me, his gigantic body immediately shrunk to a smaller human-sized form as he fought back and forth with the two alliance leaders, he knew that he wouldn't be able to recover all of his frag
Despair
I could feel my hearts jump into my throat as I looked at the recovering magic circle, I failed?I clutched my chest as I growled at the encircling demons, making them take a few steps back as they understood that they were way over their heads by attempting to attack me, even though I haven't fully recovered my energy after I launched that nuke at the immobile devil fragments, the 17 laws that flowed around my body created an impenetrable shield that not many people would be able to break.The demons may be scared by me, but they were all emboldened by the fact that one of the fragments had survived and melded with the magic circle!I wasn't entirely sure what the circle was supposed to do, but it was certainly nothing good.I wanted to fly towards it and break it apart now that there was no one to protect it, but the demons that were previously scared of me started to create a wall of bodies as they tightened the encirclement around me, the morale of the alliance had already dropped
The devil makes his move
The distance between the two black difficulty planets was quite far away, so it took me ten hours of traveling at my quickest speed to reach it.This time around, this new planet was on full defensive mode, the fragment I killed must have told the other nearby awakened pieces about what I had done to him before his death.But at this point, where my strength had reached a whooping 17 laws, 4 of them being a specialization law, how could the flimsy barrier around this planet even withstand my strength?I punched forward, making the barrier crack and break without even having to find its weak spots.The demons that were on standby for defense crumbled along with the barrier from the shockwaves of my initial attack...Most of them were weaklings that didn't even learn one law, it looked like the devil only left behind cannon fodder...There were no ambushes as I dropped down on the planet, the weaklings that were dumb enough to get near me were squashed to death by my aura as I didn't ev
Organ changes
The organs of the devil fragment were certainly quite larger compared to the demons or other races that I have encountered up till now.They had a certain heavy weight to them, and I could feel that they were hard to the touch, almost like a rock.They were also in different shapes compared to the average human, or even the average humanoid specie.The heart was in a triangle shape, the lungs were square, and the liver was just like a small ball.The intestines were quite short as they seemed to have evolved for utmost efficiency in energy conversion from the stomach to the whole body.I continued to analyze the shapes of the organs before I couldn't help but be curious about their taste.I took the triangle heart with both hands since it was quite heavy and big, and I started munching on it, splattering some blood on my face.The taste was very bland, toxic even, the organs of the devil were filled with a certain poisonous substance that even bypassed the poison-proof constitution th
Test running ten laws
After comforting Shira for a bit, I could feel my hands becoming quite itchy as I felt the need to test my newly gained strength.Even though the seven laws I have plundered could be considered inferior, quantity could still be used to crush the quality opposition when it was in a high enough number.As long as my opponent had eight or below laws, I should be able to easily deal with them, as for nine and above. I had to fight someone at that level to understand my place on the strength scales a little better.I wasn't sure about the powers of the top dogs of the universe, so I had to slowly find out while messing with the devil's plans in passing.A fully awakened devil fragment who was able to get his hands on the seven sins would be equal to a normal being that had learned and mastered seven laws.He would be the perfect test partner.Fortunately, I could easily infer the location of such heavily infected planets through the alliance's medal.I was able to find out about the locati
Researching the devouring ability
After we left the vacation planet, we started to attack low-level corrupted planets that had a few law-wielding demons.The experimentation started from there.I started by dissecting the demons and seeing how the laws were embedded in their bodies after they have mastered them.I have attempted to learn from introspection, but I could not properly see all angles inside my body, and some places were obscured for some reason.Now, by dissecting these weaker demons, I was able to infer how the laws would settle in the body, and by extension, I might be able to learn how I could apply the devouring ability to strip them of their laws and make them mine.From what I found out, the first law would settle near the heart in the form of the element that was comprehended.The second would go onto one lung, the third on the other...Atleast that's what I thought it would go like considering that I was only able to slay and dissect demons that wielded up to 2 laws.I was able to somewhat see the
Concrete theories about the time law
With the usage of a few bribes and some 'honeyed words' I was able to immediately regain control over the organization.I sat in the control room of the barrier as I made some adjustments to it, slowly incorporating the runes and other features that I have been able to master during the time I have been controlling the Ice Palace's barrier.This place needed an upgrade, and all I had to do was change a few things on the medium to make those changes, no extra materials were needed! Quite convenient.I had to fill my time with something while my underlings were doing their best to find out the things that I inquired about.Surprisingly, this academy had a library with quite a lot of books filled with neat tidbits of information. However, during my time in the academy, I didn't seem to be able to find such a library, even though I had visited most of the corridors and other important rooms of the academy...Quite strange...I even asked Shira if she knew that the academy had a library, b
Shira's changes
Shira seemed to be the same, but also quite different at the same time, almost as if she was a familiar person that I haven't seen in a long while that changed so much that she was almost unrecognizable, but I would still know her because of small things, like her voice, her face, etc...Shira took my hand into hers, it was cold, very cold, it looked like she had entirely changed from her previous fire-based nature to an ice one, such a drastic shift... it should have been really painful and deadly for her.And she didn't even come to me even once when she thought about doing such a thing, was she thinking for my sake, or did she think that I would dissuade her from doing such a perilous experiment?I hugged her tightly, and she hugged me back, while her appearance and demeanor had small changes, her personality seemed to be the same.Shira giggled lightly as she broke off the hug and said:"Oww, you were worried about me?"I nodded lightly at her question and asked with a little worr
