Chapter 262: Chapter 177: Void Wraith Vitaz, Super Enhancement_1
Jiang Chen fell into a moment of contemplation and then made his decision.
Zero had been with him for the longest time and had been the most precipitated, indeed having made great contributions through hard work.
The first mythological item was naturally for her to use.
If he obtained new Mecha Talent Catalytic Instruments in the future, he would use them in the order they were acquired.
Of course, the battle ended very quickly.
Three Mechas had not yet finished repairing, and the mecha souls were still sleeping, so even if he wanted to upgrade, he couldn’t.
After organizing his gains, Jiang Chen did a quick cleanup of the battlefield and collected materials left behind by the dead Void overlords.
He also used the Ecosphere Protection Array Formation, paired with a Spatial Anchoring Device, to temporarily seal the Void Rift.
He prevented Void creatures from traveling through the Void Rift to the world of Moraka.
He then returned to the outer layers of the planet, carrying the Void Wraith, now a black sphere.
Before he reached the Rune Sun, the God of Holy Light came to greet him with even more fervent respect.
“Great God of Myriad Machines, congratulations on your triumphant return!”
Several slightly less powerful God Followers stood beside the God of Holy Light.
Like the God of Holy Light, they too had abandoned their human forms and had become different elemental beings, whose respectful attitudes were tinged with a trace of fear.
As transcendent beings, they could sense just how terrifying the recent battle had been.
If they had been even slightly closer, even the mere remnants of the energy’s aftermath would have been enough to completely obliterate them!
“Don’t be nervous,” Jiang Chen consoled them upon sensing their emotions through the energy fluctuations.
“I’ve temporarily dealt with a contingent of the Void Legion and exterminated the minions of the Void.”
“Once I’ve strengthened my Mecha, I’ll enter and close off this Void Rift.”
“Without this Void Rift, the Legion will need a long time to reacquire the spatial coordinates for the world of Moraka...”
“You can use this time to train mecha pilots and grow stronger as quickly as possible.”
The Pantheon of the world of Moraka had witnessed the power of mecha pilots through the recent battle.
They were filled with confidence and expectations for mecha pilots, slightly relieved.
It could only watch helplessly as Jiang Chen probed for a moment before withdrawing.
“Were you once female?”
“...Yes.”
The God of Holy Light, although enduring discomfort, replied.
“But it’s been many years since I’ve shed my human form, and my soul has been fashioned into a godly essence... How did you know?”
“5th Rank is not enough to truly master the soul.”
Jiang Chen shook his head.
He had just come into deep contact with the God of Holy Light, and through the perception of the soul, had discerned the information of the God of Holy Light’s soul, leading to a conclusion.
This was [a human soul with female characteristics].
This meant that although the God of Holy Light had abandoned its body to become an elemental being, the essence of its soul had not changed and still belonged to a human.
If it died or was reborn through some method, it would still have to take on a human form.
Even if it created avatars, they would have human forms.
In such a case, whether it counted as an abyssal creature was debatable.
It had only changed its physical form, and if its civilization crossed the abyss, it might indeed awaken the Abyss Rune.
‘The key to this matter lies in the method of judging the Abyss Rune.’
‘In the abyss, only [humans] can awaken the Abyss Rune, so what is the criterion for judging [humans]?’
‘Body? Soul? Or something even deeper?’
A thought flitted through Jiang Chen’s mind, and he voiced it.
“If you want to become a mecha pilot in the future, don’t keep forging what you call ‘godly essence.’”
“Your current soul still retains its human integrity. If you continue this distortion, you may well become a monster.”
The Holy Light Pantheon looked at one another in confusion.
Jiang Chen did not elaborate further.
He had already left ample data and information in the world of Moraka.
The rest, he himself didn’t fully understand.
Dodging past the other gods, he flew towards the star radiating blazing light, leaving behind just a ripple of his thoughts.
