Chapter 791 - Intense Battle Amidst Outer Space
-----
The power of the Celestial had been unleashed, he showcased the ability of three Grand Daos and one Grand Cosmic Dao.
The power of Daos was classified within Ranks, there were Lesser, Normal, Great, Grand, Lesser Cosmic, Cosmic, Great Cosmic, Grand Cosmist, and beyond…
However, even for Supreme Gods or World Devourers, a Grand Cosmic Dao was something completely incredible to attain, and something that seemed quite impossible.
But the Celestials, children of Samsara, had some privileges. Samsara was certainly not a Primordial Deity that was the pillar of the Universe, his children were not Dao Children either, but he could inherit fragments of his Dao to them quite easily.
With that alone, his children could easily develop such Dao Fragments and evolve them into True Daos after living for a few thousands of years. Of course, Transmigration Gods were usually not given any of such things, as they were all useful on their own accord and didn't required extra investment, while other being such as Celestials that required as much power as possible would benefit greatly from having Daos.
With the Daos he had, the Celestial began to unleash enormous spheres of pure soul light concentrating all the Aether that he could extract from the countless souls he possessed.
Veronica and Ervas quickly realized a terrifying truth, this bastard had trillions of souls' hostage inside of his divine realm, which he used as fuel for his abilities. After all, the element that composed souls was Aether, a special energy that is the pillar to create a soul.
As a being that was made by an entity of incredible power over souls, it was quite obvious that he would benefit greatly from having countless souls to drain Aether from, even more as he had the Dao of Aether to boot!
The Celestial moved at an incredible speed, flashing through the skies at fast speed and leaving only light behind his path, as he generated enormous spheres of pure Aether concentrated with the power of Samsara itself, the true meaning behind transmigration to concentrate an insane amount of soul power into his attacks, capable of disintegrating souls with utmost ease!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
His attacks continued to flash through the outer space skies atop the planet of Eden, as the people down below in the surface looked fearfully at what was occurring in the skies, they were seeing a gigantic specter fighting an angel made of light, a spectacle they thought they would never be able to see in their lives.
"Hahahaha! What's wrong?! Are you afraid of the true power of a Celestial?! Come and eat some more! I will tear you apart until nothing remains, insolent inferior being!" roared the Celestial, as his attacks became more intense, and his speed was incredible the true speed of someone at the peak of the World-Devourer-Rank! His ability was so great that the fusion, even with all their fused powers combined, could not keep up with the intensity of his speed, and they were being constantly pushed down!
Their entire fused body was receiving enormous wounds which were taking a while to recover, and they were already filled with so many holes that their bodies resembled a piece of Swiss cheese.
And it was getting worse by the second, their speed could not keep up with him… but was that all?
Was it all of it?
Could they not really do it?
In the middle of his intense attacks, the Celestial suddenly realized something.
Why were they so weak now? f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚
Yeah, his powers were incredible and all, but couldn't they come out with another trick?
Was it all?
He was somehow disappointed, he thought they could give a bit more of a fight, a small struggle, something more to entertain him from his dull life in the top of the food chain.
But it seems that it was all, they already exhausted their trump cards.
"DAMN IT!!!" f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m
The voices of Veronica and Ervas roared with frustration, as they unleashed all the power they could, rays of darkness and light clashed against the Celestial as his attacks and rays of Aether clashed against them, destroying them easily and generating large clouds of smoke everywhere, blocking his sight from his foe, but his senses easily could detect them.
"That's it, I guess… Your struggle is pointless, and so is everything in your life… Die." Said the Celestial with a dull expression, as he created an enormous spear of Aether and fired it towards the fusion, the speed being of less than a split of a millisecond, piercing through the fused body of the fusion and beginning to spread bright yellow light across their gray body.
FLAAAASH!
"GUUUAAAAAHHH…!"
BOOOM!!!
The Celestial looked with an expressionless face, as his foe died and generated an even bigger smoke cloud out of their essence spreading into nothingness…
"How dull, I guess that's all…" he sighed.
"Wow, you're really easy to fool, aren't you?"
The voice of the fusion which was made up of five different voices resonated behind the Celestial. His face was left completely dumbfounded.
Once more, he was fooled.
Incredible.
He couldn't believe it, he thought that after falling for the trick twice, he wouldn't fall for it a third time.
How wrong he was.
The power of the Dao of Mirage made the complete opposite possible! The more one fell for the tricks, the more they would be likely to fall for another!
Of course, that trick wasn't made without sacrifices and effort, it started when the split souls unleashed their massive attack in desperation while screaming: "DAMN IT!!!" rather dramatically.
After that explosion that left a lot of smoke behind, they quickly activated the effects of the Dao of Mirages, creating an identical copy of themselves, a powerful phantom clone even carrying a small fragment of their fused soul for even more authenticity…!
Of course, one Dao alone wouldn't had been able to make such tricks so convincing, there were several more supporting this strategy!
