DEVIANT

383 Bad timing!

Bam!

?’l landed on one knee into what looked like a black pool. The water level was so shallow it was only up to his knee level at best but what he saw left him slightly speechless.

Ahead of him was a mighty waterfall with two mighty valleys. He could see the birds and other beasts of the night, trying to hide away but not from him, just something else.

Huh?

What could that be?

?’l thought to himself as he casually walked forward. After attaining the status of true God, he felt strong enough to deal with anything that comes his way. He strode forward for over five minutes before he stopped!

Buzzz!

[New true God of Gluttony detected!]

[Ascension process complete!]

.....

[ A True God at birth!]

?’l frowned. The system was never the chatty type but even he could feel the excitement behind the messages sent his way.

His eyes let out a cruel light as his body shot into the sky almost effortlessly, shooting into the hole where he originally came from.

There can only be one God of Gluttony!

Him!

As he had become a true God, the flight was no longer as tasking as it used to be when he was still a defect. As he moved, he felt like he moved with an array of planets and stars, chasing after him. ?’l felt like he carried an entire universe with him.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahaha!

His domineering laugh echoed from the hole and the gods at the entrance frowned. They were all tasked with protecting this place and they didn’t expect to see the enemy. Their eyes opened wide as his body staggered back and fell back as a geyser of black flames erupted and shot into the sky, covering the heavens!

Hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahabahahhahahahahahaha!

?’l cruel laughter filled the sky as his body shot down, smashing into the deity below. It was an archangel-level being but even it couldn’t struggle against the strength of a true God!

“Burn!” ?’l snorted disdainfully as the deity was engulfed in dark flames and his accumulated power of fate surged into ?’l’s body.

Xiu!

Several deities leaped into the air in an attempt to attack the enemy from all directions but they suddenly lost control of their body.

Hmph!

Gravity core: Black hole!

?’l stood at the center of it all as they were all pulled towards him by a tremendous power!

Black flame core: Void flames

Brrrr!

Immense black exploded from his body, shooting far and wide effectively consuming everything in its path!

Hmph!

?’l was disgusted by how weak these gods are. He felt their powers of fate surge into his body but he barely felt any improvement. The resources needed to strengthen a true God and other false gods were leaps and bounds by far.

This was one of the disadvantages of this power but he didn’t really care. This was a small price to pay for the power he had acquired.

Thud!

?’l eyes flashed with cruelty as he looked in a certain direction and saw three figures casually walking toward him.

Feng Xi of the black flame sect

Lord Xi of the high god’s sect

Paquin of the black water sect.

Unfortunately, he could only recognize Lord Xi! These three were only under the main leaders of their individual factions with a high power level amongst the realms of gods.

Standing in the presence of three virtues made even ?’l frown. The strength gap between the low and mid order is so high most don’t even manage to cross it. Virtues were as rare as a dragon tooth, so it wasn’t surprising ?’l was almost overwhelmed by their combined presence.

“It’s him…” Lord Xi said with a hint of shock and fear in his eyes.

He could remember the man that caused him so much trouble. He could remember the face of the man, and he could also recognize the black flame.

How did this man consume a territory?

The thought made him tremble but he wasn’t the only one moved by all of this. Feng Xi especially felt like her mind was in turmoil. She has finally found the man who killed their master’s successor. But this man has proven to even be more capable than their master. To reach the Archangel level and achieve the name of true God in just a day, not even the black flame emperor could do this!

The only true God amongst them now is the reboot god and to even achieve such a status, their deities of an extremely high level had to fuse together alongside the power of a territory, yet this kid achieved it as if it was nothing.

“We have to kill him! We need to kill him before he gets stronger!” Paquin said with cold eyes pinned on Feng Xi.

It seemed her words were directed at her to determine whose side she is on. Hearing this, Feng Xi frowned and was confused. While ?’l has shown immense potential, he was just unlucky. He was at the wrong place, at the wrong time. Even if she wanted to save him, she can’t handle these two alone and even if they manage to survive, is it worth risking the life of every other member of the faction back in their empire?

Would they be spared?

The answer remains no. This chapter is updated by Fɪre.net

The hesitation in her eyes vanished and was replaced with hardcore resolve. While she had a duty to bring a successor, what is the use if there will be nothing to succeed?

If the black flame emperor ever returned, would he forgive her when he learns that she sacrificed their entire faction for the man who killed his son?

“I agree!” Feng Xi said without hesitation, stunning the two deities by her side.

The resolve in her eyes was far sharper than theirs making them wonder if she held any grudge against ?’l

Nevertheless, this was a good thing for them so why wouldn’t they be happy?

With the power of three virtues, no matter how powerful a true God is, it won’t be able to survive against them alone, especially since his order was still at the Arcangel level.
