567 CH 427: GLUTTONY (2)

Sitting on a Lotus chair with the Yin yang Trigram spinning below him, Bai Hu sighed. His brow showed his weariness and his black hair had hints of gray. Despite not moving an inch since coming here, his breathing was clearly hurried. But there was no other way.

He had obviously not been completely forthcoming with the information he shared with Nuwa.

His Zone worked in very mysterious ways but he was not all-powerful.

'I lost a few years of my lifespan.'

This zone was very special. In fact, rather than one truth, it was something that could be learned by a group of people and used in a group of eight as long as they had the matching elements.

This was a technique of old that had long been discarded since the power of the domain could only be fully shown when eight people with matching hearts fought together.

It was said that at this level, even a King rank could be imprisoned and beaten to death.Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com

This was a very useful power that could help the weak face against the strong and Bai Hu knew that he could have gotten great merit if he shared this technique with Tiangu Ira.

But Bai Hu knew that this would have been stupid. As great as the reward he would have received would be, he would have most likely died before enjoying them.

‘Well — Not like my current situation is any better.’

Swallowing the blood that was threatening to spill, Bai Hu gazed at the young girl who had dropped her hammer after one swing.

Truly he had been lucky. Had the girl gathered more power, she might have been able to actually destroy this place instantly in one shot.

Thankfully, this was not to be and he still had his chance.

‘Now then. Young girl, what will you do?’

Hopefully, nothing. The girl, despite possessing great might, seemed to lack dearly in experience. Her actions were extremely amateurish and this was covered by her talent.

‘The Heavens are indeed never fair.’

Fate was a cruel mistress and realizing that the world did not follow fairness was one of the first lessons he received.

If everything continued like this. She would either try to attack once again or go through the gate.

Either way — She was doomed.

While Bai Hu was mourning and suffering physically as well as emotionally from the destruction of his Zone, Echidna was grinning with relish as the energy was being absorbed in her zone.

Even so, she was still not fully satisfied. Clearly, she was too weak and unable to show the true might of her Zone.

‘I have to thank Anubis for this.’

When she was younger, all she knew was devouring by tearing off the material and ingurgitating it.

It was Anubis who talked to her about the star and taught her the existence of what was known as Black Hole. A phenomenon that signified the end of all.

This was also why she had taught Nuwa how to manipulate gravity. After all, this was the first step in mastering this technique.

‘Ah...This body is really nearly perfect. But it still has room to grow.’

Echidna opened her arms wide as she continued to absorb the energy through the black hole and pushed it toward the body, making it stronger, faster, and tougher.

“Do you see? This is the height you can reach if you listen to my teaching more closely. You will be able to make your Zone evolve and become something akin to mine.”

Echidna received no answer but she had never expected one in the first place. Nuwa’s soul was too weak and frail to actually communicate the same way Echidna did.

.cοm ‘How fascinating. The birth of a new blank soul.’

This was a body that should have been hers and obviously, she had made sure no Soul would enter it. After all, she wouldn’t be surprised if the goddesses used her eggs to nourish some reincarnation like Anubis.

But Nuwa was something completely different. Something she had never witnessed. Something that was worth observing.

This was why —

“Do not worry. I will give you your body back soon.”

She grinned as she gripped the hammer tightly in her hand. In the past, her weapon had been a flail. But this would also do.

“Time to have fun.”

War was the best place of growth for someone with the power of Gluttony.
