Chapter 283: Chapter 284

Chapter 283: Chapter 284From this moment on, Syd realized that as long as his soul wasn't destroyed by external forces, it would remain immortal, untouched by the passage of time.

Even the weariness that came from living too long or feelings of ennui were impossible for him to experience.

In mystical terms, his divine essence seemed to elevate his spiritual state to an extraordinary level.

Not even the Mind Stone could exert control over him anymore. Unless someone could fully unlock the Mind Stone's power, Syd was immune to its influence. For instance, if Loki wielded the Mind Scepter against him, Syd could simply shrug it off.

At the same time, his divinity wasn't confined to his mind and soul-it permeated his body, blood, and light energy as well.

Venom, who had been dormant, suddenly awakened, awkwardly emerging from Syd's right hand.

Syd ignored Venom. He could feel that, with the augmentation of his divinity, his divine body's defenses had surged, akin to wielding Thor's hammer.

His abilities, such as his divine light, flight, and more, all experienced significant enhancements.

In mere moments, Syd felt his overall strength skyrocket to unprecedented levels.

Having moved to an uninhabited wilderness, Syd decided to test his newfound power. Boom!

A deafening sonic boom echoed across the land.

When Syd stopped, calculations revealed a startling result-his speed had increased from twelve times the speed of sound to nineteen times the speed of sound!

Nearly twenty times the speed of sound.

Such speed was far beyond the imagination of ordinary humans.

Astonished, Syd decided to test the power of his divine speech next.

"Light!"

Instantly, he felt the surrounding area within an 80-kilometer radius fill with radiant light.

Fortunately, he managed to suppress the effect with precise control, avoiding another

massive anomaly.

Previously, his light could only cover a range of 50 kilometers, but now it had expanded by 30 kilometers.

Satisfied with the increase, Syd moved on to test his Sunshine.

In an instant, sunlight within a six-kilometer radius began behaving abnormally, an

improvement from the previous four kilometers.

Feeling reassured, Syd found that both the range and potency of his Sunshine had significantly increased, bolstering his sense of security.

After testing Chaos Magic and confirming its substantial enhancement, Syd shifted his focus to his soul.

Floating mid-air, Syd closed his eyes and concentrated on the golden light emanating from his soul.

He attempted to detach his soul from his body.

The next second, a slightly translucent figure, radiating sacred golden light, emerged from his body.

Venom, watching from the side, widened its black eyes in shock.

What was this?

A soul?

Half of his spiritual body emerged, and Syd gazed at it with mild surprise.

Aside from its golden glow and semi-transparent nature, it appeared nearly identical to a normal person.

It was morning, and sunlight bathed his form. Instead of feeling pain, Syd felt a warm and comforting sensation.

After briefly experiencing his out-of-body state, Syd returned to his physical body.

As soon as he re-entered, he was greeted with an overwhelming sense of safety.

Having tested his new capabilities, Syd turned his attention to Sunshine.

With his divinity, divine speech, divine light, flight, and divine body all reaching Level 5, it was time to enhance this key ability.

As an Omega-level mutant power, Sunshine was still at Level 4 and had yet to reach its true potential.

Syd couldn't help but feel eager anticipation.

"What kind of transformation will Level 5 bring?"

He began preparing to train Sunshine but paused as a thought crossed his mind. seaʀᴄh thё NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Pulling out a black stone and the Orb of Cosmos from his backpack, he decided to test his strength against the Old God once more.

Venom, recognizing the familiar scene, scurried backward in panic.

Moments later, dense black light appeared, accompanied by a strange and familiar ripple.

But this time, something different happened.

Though the ripple appeared, Syd wasn't dragged into the deathly visions.

He could sense that as long as he didn't want it, the black stone could no longer pull him into

those visions.

"Level 5 divinity even enhances resistance to such effects?"

Syd was impressed.

Choosing not to resist, he allowed himself to follow the ripple into the deathly visions.

A familiar prairie.

A familiar position.

The sky darkened abruptly.

The eerie whispers began again, echoing in both the vision and his ears.

But unlike last time, they had no effect on him. The whispers felt like a gentle breeze, passing from one ear and out the other.

Neither his divine body nor his spirit was affected in the slightest by the Old God's attempts.

Even when a black tentacle emerged from the pitch-black sky-a sight that would drive mortals insane-Syd remained unfazed.

The Old God's voice changed, now tinged with confusion.

"Ant... why aren't you affected by my influence?"

It was incredulous, unable to fathom how anyone could resist.

"What secrets do you hold?"

After its initial shock, the Old God's tone turned malicious.

"No matter. Once you become my puppet, I'll know everything."

"Becoming my puppet is your hono-"

Before it could finish, light erupted in response.

Within an 80-kilometer radius, radiant light filled the area.

The Old God's singular red eye widened in shock.

Before it could react, a beam formed from converging sunlight and Sunshine surged toward it.

In an instant, the black tentacle it had extended vanished.

The beam and radiant light continued to spread toward the dark void.

Realizing the threat, the Old God roared in anger, sending countless black tentacles imbued

with dark energy toward the attack.

But under the combined might of the divine beam and Sunshine, the dark energy on the tentacles began rapidly disintegrating.

Last time, even at full strength, Syd had only managed to eliminate about 20% of the energy.

This time...

10%...

20%...

40%...
