Chapter 83: Qin Xian’s Hunger
IN the Golden Pool, Ye Xuan’s form appeared increasingly imposing and terrifying. His aura grew stronger, and a dragon’s might gradually spread throughout the entire treasury.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Xuan slowly opened his eyes. At this moment, his eyes were completely golden, exuding a majestic presence that made hearts tremble. His entire being radiated an aura of absolute dominance, as if he was born to be the ruler of this world.
[Name]: Ye Xuan
[Class]: Dragon God
[Level]: LV40
[Strength]: 1115
[Agility]: 1020
[Constitution]: 831
[Spirit]: 732
[Intelligence]: 826
[Skills]: Dragon God’s Majesty, Dragon God’s Body, Dragon Breath, All Bow Down, Dragon Throne…
Unbeknownst to him, the souls of past emperors from the ancient empire had vanished, along with the starlight power of the Golden Pool.
This starlight was the essence of strength left by emperors of past generations, and though much of it was spent resisting the Void’s invasion, the remnants still enabled Ye Xuan to complete his transformation from a Dragon God Apostle to a true Dragon God.
The residual essence of the Golden Pool had been converted into experience points and extra attribute points, pushing his level directly from below 30 to 40. His primary attribute, strength, even surpassed 1100!
Ye Xuan’s expression remained calm as he gazed at his hands. In this moment, he had never felt so powerful, so full of strength!
“Qin Xian…” A trace of confidence flickered in Ye Xuan’s eyes.
He could feel that he was now stronger than Qin Xian. Previously, he had been almost powerless before Qin Xian, but now things were different. The balance of power had shifted.
A cold smile played on Ye Xuan’s lips. His next move was simple: find Qin Xian, defeat him, and then rescue his sister. That was all there was to it.
However, when he thought of Qin Li, Ye Xuan’s brow furrowed slightly as he recalled the scene of her mercilessly slaughtering innocents. Qin Li’s character felt unfamiliar, unlike anything he had imagined.
Ye Xuan wasn’t upset, nor did he blame his sister. After all, one becomes influenced by the company one keeps. The Qin family members were ruthless, cold-hearted, and cruel. Qin Li, who had grown up in the Qin family, naturally absorbed their influence.
No matter. Once he rescued her and revealed the truth, he believed that under his guidance, his sister could find her way back to the right path. After all, they were blood siblings.
…
In the dimensional space, Marika’s screams had faded, replaced by soft, incomprehensible moans and gasps.
Marika’s entire body trembled uncontrollably, her eyes rolling back as a bit of drool trickled from the corner of her mouth. Her soul had been completely shattered by the torment of the Ancient God’s Curse.
Being controlled by the Ancient God’s Curse was inherently a painful process. Nearby, the source of the world in front of Qin Xian had weakened to a negligible extent as it was being devoured by him. Qin Xian’s aura grew stronger, more terrifying.
Finally, the world’s source was entirely consumed by Qin Xian! He slowly opened his eyes, and what a pair of eyes they were—filled with twisted frenzy, yet beneath the madness lay an extreme indifference and coldness.
Qin Xian felt his whole body tremble faintly with delight. The sensation of devouring a world’s source was intoxicating, mesmerizing! Through consuming it, Qin Xian gained the power of laws, an ability typically possessed only by a Void Overlord.
However, despite having just consumed a world’s source, Qin Xian felt far from satisfied. Instead, he was overwhelmed by an even deeper hunger. He wanted to devour more world sources! This urge ran deep in his bloodline…
But soon, his gaze regained calm as he forcefully suppressed his twisted impulses. Qin Xian would never let emotions cloud his judgment; he would always maintain a cold and rational state of mind.
World sources were not easy to devour. Each world source was the foundation of its realm, protected by the gods. To devour a world’s source was tantamount to conquering that world, something Qin Xian’s current strength couldn’t achieve.
The world source he had consumed was once coveted by the Void Overlord of the Third Court, Khornate Lord, who almost managed to devour it.
Later, this world was shattered by the Void, and after being digitized by the Divine Revelation Monolith, it became an instance, granting Qin Xian the opportunity to consume its source.
Even though it was a severely weakened world source, a young Void Overlord managing to devour a complete world source was an exceptionally rare feat in the history of the Void.
Qin Xian’s indifferent gaze turned to his own status panel. Although he had only devoured a weakened world source, his power had surged dramatically!
[Name]: Qin Xian
[Class]: Void Overlord
[Level]: LV35
[Strength]: 1897
[Agility]: 1580
[Constitution]: 1274
[Spirit]: 1288
[Intelligence]: 1284
[Skills]: Void Control, Incarnate as Void, Twist Space, Ancient God’s Curse, Touch of the Nightmare Queen…
In both level and attributes, Qin Xian’s stats had almost doubled! Yet, he paid little mind to these increases, instead focusing on the status bar.
[Origin Devourer]: After devouring a world’s source, damage against deities increases by 150%, immunity to any divine-granted skill, and gain of law manipulation.
[Law Manipulation]: Grants the power to control laws, allowing the creation or influence of a domain where any rules can be set.
Origin Decourer and Law Manipulation were the greatest benefits Qin Xian gained from devouring a world’s source. As for level and attribute point boosts…those were merely bonuses.
