GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1684: Fake And Real Void Beasts.



Becoming fake Sovereigns is one of the options for titans of law with one regret or another about their concept. It is not the only one. There's also the option to participate in the trial of heaven and use it to gain the assistance of the Will of the realm.

She could have considered the second option, as it wouldn't block her future progress. Unfortunately, the High Heaven Realm is no more, so she cannot gain another Origin for another chance at creating a concept.

Besides, that wouldn't have solved her problem. She knew what she wanted. She didn't want a weak concept, so she would have done the same thing if given another chance.

So gaining a life crystal is really her only viable option. She didn't get the assistance of the dragon spirit when she was a hatchling because the law of life was weak. That would have solved her problem even before she had it. Unfortunately, she was too weak then.

She has had enough of being weak now. She wants to become strong, and for that, she is willing to work 10,000,000 years to gain it. That isn't a long time for her, considering that she has lived for a total of 200 Origin cycles already. And considering that her aim is to live forever, 10,000,000 years is little compared to eternity.

She is not daunted by the fact that she wants to get revenge on Legion. But what makes her sign and feel helpless is that she might have to wait 10,000,000 years before she can fight them. It makes her look at the corrosive void energy around her with resentment.

"I might actually lose my mind if I have to brave this stupid energy for 10,000,000 years. Oh, how I miss sleeping deep within the ground. In fact, I will take sleep anywhere over any void energy."

She truly needs sleep. Her work has robbed her of it. But then she remembered that it was Ragnarok who had robbed her of it. It sharpened her mind and made her sober again.

She said to encourage herself, "I just have to be careful and dedicated. Slow and steady will win this race. 10,000,000 years will come and go soon."

Dragons often boost of how time passes quickly for them. But that's only because they sleep a lot. It is very difficult not to feel the passage of time when she can't just close her eyes and wake up to find that many weaker entities have perished of old age.

Still, she is not going to give up on her revenge. She is also not going to try to catch a quick nap in the void. Pride or not, it remains a fact that the void universe is not hospitable to anything that is not immortal.

She has to be especially careful in the void because she can't use her concept here at all. The surrounding void energy will destroy any energy or magical attack that she can conjure. So it would be best if she didn't meet anyone, and it would be good for her to be awake to run from anything that would be dangerous to her.

She was flying through the void when it happened. She encountered a void beast. It was a beast that lives and hunts in the void, so it is automatically her enemy.

It had the head of an ant. The two eyes on it were compound and large. Those eyes see far better than those of ants. They can see in the darkness of the void.

They can also see creatures that are not void beasts better and can see the movement of void energy. That's how it was able to see her, even though she had hidden all her life signs.

She is a divine dragon with a void body so others might mistake her for a void beast if they sense only the void energy in her body. But she isn't truly a void beast. She has to push the void energy around in order to move. This made her stand out as an imposter to the void beast.

It had the torso of a kangaroo and four forelimbs that ended in blades. It had a large fin-like tail and large webbed feet on its two hind limbs, which it used to swim in the void. Unlike her, the void beast was at home with the void energy.

The void beast noticed her and cooked its head at her. It was eyeing her like a predator would do to prey. It was bigger than her, so it looked like a predator.

"Scram." She roared at it.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Her roar was the signature dragon's roar. It was accompanied by majestic psychic pressure. It slammed into the void beast and sent it flying.

She snorted and continued her journey. The void beast might be a predator of the void, but it was too weak to threaten her.

She didn't go far before she noticed the void beast was chasing her. Its tail was pushing it through the void at a speed fast enough to keep up with her. She wasn't fooled by the sight. She recognized the tail to be where the divine ability of the void beast is.

As a space elemental creature, the divine ability of the void beast must be related to space, so it is not a wonder why it can keep up with her despite being weaker than her.

She also noticed that the void beast was not harmed. The dragon's roar inflicts spiritual and physical damage, but the void beast was unscathed. This didn't surprise her either, because she knows just how resistant void beasts are to damage. But she thought her roar would scare it so that it would know better than to follow her.

She said with disdain, "I shouldn't have counted on its intelligence. Clearly, this is the stupid type of void beast. I can't believe that dragons are related to these things."
