Chapter 216: Dormancy

...........

Yasuo slowly lifted his hand as a test tube appeared in it with a purple liquid within that soon disappeared... Yes, he found another part of Epithymías but this one seems special.

It looks more like a thin tree trunk with several thin branches on its top. It's however not a tree, It's part of Epithymías.

The fact it's transparent with some kind of jelly-like substance flowing slowly inside of it is proof of that.

The purple liquid was teleported directly inside of it as it started painting it in its color.

However, the process seemed extremely slow and will probably take a long time for the special Zobae organisms to multiply to a degree where they can pain this specific body part in their color.

Furthermore, If Yasuo wanted for the organisms to fully take over Epithymías, then it will take an extremely long time, but that's what he's working on, making that time shorter.

So he sat down in the middle of the air, hovering above the treetop in a meditative position.

The air around him became still as he closed his eyes and focused completely, seemingly ignoring his surroundings.

But he's not worried at all, his massive domain is enveloping nearly thirty miles around him, and Medusa is guarding him carefully, keeping an eye on everything around.

That's not really that needed as he's using Perfect plan, allowing him to become completely invisible, but he still did so nonetheless... Just in case.

Slowly, a strange transparent Nen ball appeared before him. Following directly after, a cylinder appeared continuously moving around him with its speed slowly increasing.

He didn't stop there as tens of other abilities appeared all around him, creating a magnificent sea of stars. fre𝚎w𝐞bn𝗼v𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝗼𝚖

They aren't exactly complete abilities but a primary manifestation of them, abilities he's trying to mimic and assimilate.

Normally, he would let his special genes passively assimilate all of the bloodlines he gained and get their abilities naturally but It's a slow process.

He doesn't have much to do right now, so he decided to accelerate the process and consciously try to mimic them all.

The most important reason however is to accelerate the assimilation process which means his evolution.

And he knows he dearly needs for his body to evolve far beyond the level of any creature in this world, the last phase will only work after that condition is fulfilled.

So for the next few months, Yasuo remained static, hovering in the air. His insane Nen regeneration allows him to easily train for months which is miraculous considering how many abilities he's using at the same time.

The location of his training helped a lot especially after he mimicked a certain interesting ability.

The stone bowl, one of the gods who had a devouring ability, and even though Yasuo found it dead, its ability was still active, so Yasuo made sure to observed the ability in numerous futures.

So he gave most of his time to completely mimicking the ability, and that made everything else so much easier.

The massive vortex enveloping hundreds of meters around Yasuo is a result of that.

All of the locations around Epithymías' body parts are always rich with energy, and now Yasuo is continuously devouring the unending ocean of energy around him.

Strangely, while the devouring power has an effect in enlarging his Aura pool, it's too small as it mostly replenishes his Aura.

He attributed that to either his proficiency in the ability or that's simply how it works, and he's inclined to think it's the latter, but it doesn't matter much to him. he knows that soon, he will get a much better alternative.

He did communicate with Morena regularly through an ability of his but only visited her recently and spent some time with her and Alluka.

He's pretty much about to fully assimilate all of the bloodlines he devoured, and he specifically focused on Meruem's ability, the photon ability.

Yasuo opened his eyes, opening an abyss of scarlet blood that is his scarlet eyes, and they looked deeper than ever as if he experienced an eternity.

He relaxed his body which appeared to have been still for decades, a process he repeats whenever he wishes to leave the place even though only a few months have passed.

Nevertheless, his movements were smooth and exquisite, and his pale skin shone with a faint luster of transcendence as if he left humanity far behind him and reached the realms of gods.

His expression was just as tranquil as ever, but he appeared even more mature, and his eyes were radiating a luster of wiseness as if epochs were but mere seconds to him.

Well, he wasn't at that level yet but the years indeed passed in the blink of an eye for him.

Only months passed but to him, years passed as he hid deeply within a faint purple sphere, a completely distinct domain in which time moves differently.

He used his control domain to its fullest and kept his time-domain fully activated since he fully mimicked the devouring power which allowed him to handle the massive consumption.

His genes have reached a whole new level, their complexity is unrivaled, seemingly a web of infinite universes within his body.

"My genes have no limit, so I can evolve infinitely, but I already assimilated all of the bloodlines I devoured so I need more."

Yasuo then lifted his hand as a simple transparent sphere appeared floating on it, "And now everything is much easier with this."

The transparent sphere started slowly floating away from him as numerous similar spheres appeared around him.

The first sphere's speed suddenly increased and almost instantly reached the speed of light, and numerous other photons followed after it.

Another photon appeared though this one was enveloping Yasuo, this is an ability he dearly wanted because It's just that precious.

Thinking and moving at the speed of light? How can someone not want that?

Then he disappeared as he achieved what was once impossible and broke the barrier of speed, the speed of light is no longer a dream for him.
