Devouring the First World.
“Wow Nux, you are cruel.”
Shadow Lane commented as she looked
around with a curious look on her face. Just like Lane, she wasn’t fazed by Blood. Her mind was pretty much
one-dimensional, rarely anything that was not related to Nux bothered her.
“I wasn’t in the mood for negotiating.”
Nux shrugged.
“The negotiations would have failed.”
Lane commented.
She was currently sitting on Nux’s lap, so she was very comfortable. Of course, the Shadow Lane was leaning on his back, so she was happy as well.
“That is true as well.”
Nux nodded again.
No army would surrender to a single being, especially when the said being was at the same cultivation stage as them.
Even if Nux used force to subdue most of the leaders and threatened the rest to submit, he was supposed to devour this World later, it was highly likely that he would be defenceless when that happened. Yes, there were Lane and Shadow Lane with him, however, he didn’t wish to take any chances.
Not to mention Shadow Lane’s powers weren’t exactly clear, and no, Nux wasn’t going to let her die, even if she was his wife, she was a ‘part’ of his wife, and with Nux possessiveness, no one but him can get close to her.
Of course, he could also use Charm and
Slave Seal, but to use them on thousands of
beings was simply too time-consuming.
Killing them off was a much faster and
more efficient option.
“Anyways, aren’t you going to devour the
world now? We need to find its core, won’t
we? Where is it? Have you found it
already?”
Shadow Lane spoke.
She seemed to be in a jovial mood.
And how could she not be?
It was the first time she was actually ‘with’
Nux on a mission. For her, it was like ‘her’
first date.
Even if this date involved some blood and
gore, she didn’t mind.
“There is no point in hiding.
It would only elongate your suffering,
I am too lazy to go around destroying everything but that doesn’t mean I won’t do it if I have to.
So just give in and go with some dignity
left.
There is nothing you can do to save
yourself,
This little show I displayed should have
told you that.”
Nux spoke with a neutral look on his fac
This was the second reason he decided to kill everyone present here.
It was to intimidate the will of the world,
he wanted it to understand the difference in power between him and the beings who were just about to devour it.
He wanted it to know that he was much
stronger than them, so if the World couldn’t defend itself against them, it was pointless to even try it against him.
A World could be considered to be a Sentient Being, it was capable of having such thoughts.
And Nux was right, his method seemed to have worked, as suddenly, a white-coloured light ball appeared right above Shadow Lane’s head, of course, it
was much further away from Nux, giving Shadow Lane a full chance to capture it and make a run.
Nux laughed out loud as he then shook his
head.
“Well, I guess this is your last resistance.”
Nux commented.
Shadow Lane extended her hands towards
the World’s Core. The World Core got into her embrace readily. It wanted Shadow Lane to run away and an infighting to start
and seeing Shadow Lane extend her hands towards her, it knew that its method had worked.
But then,
“Hehe~ It is quite a strange feeling. It is as
if I am holding it and not holding it at the same time.”
Shadow Lane commented as she then passed it to Nux.
The World Core in her hands trembled, it
was as if it was telling her that she was doing the wrong thing and she should run
away, of course, Nux and the others
completely ignored it.
*Rumble* *Rumble*
*Thunder* *Thunder*
The world trembled, sensing its doom.
Nux on the other hand, could already feel the Black Hole getting out of his control. Unlike others, he didn’t have to go through the process of using his Aura of Law of Self
to surround the World Core and then connect with the World,
He only needed to do one thing. And that was to set the beast he had been
holding back free and… well, watch what happens.
And this was exactly what he did.
He let it go.
Of course, before this, he had already
surrounded the entire world with the
Universal Energy, that was something he couldn’t forget.
Especially when he knew how the Universe
was going to react to what was going to happen now.
The darn thing reacts when he takes ‘HIS’
wives away from it even though they were rightfully his to begin with, it even reacts
when he only takes away a world’s residual energy, it responds to all the little things it could,
How would such a petty thing not react when he was going to take a whole damn.
world that definitely belonged to it?
It would react.
And it would react violently.
*THUNDER* *THUNDER* *THUNDER*
*RUMBLE* *RUMBLE* *RUMBLE*
‘Heh.’
Nux laughed. It was just as he expected, the
instant the Black Hole got its hands on the World’s Core, its connection with the Universe was severed. Cracks started
appearing all over the ground, but this time, Nux was able to sense that these
cracks weren’t here because of the Universe, it was because of him. This time, it wasn’t the Universe devouring
the World, it was him devouring the whole thing.
A meal that he wasn’t willing to share. Nux’s face distorted as he smiled.
The Universe reacted violently, even though it no longer had any connections to
the world, the world still shook because of its movements. Not that it mattered, more and more cracks started appearing in the world and the Core.
And just like when Vyriana was devouring
the World, the moment the Core broke
into pieces and the first piece was about to fall on the ground, it disintegrated into energy and the Black Hole absorbed it all.
The same happened with the world as all the life from it was drained out, the mountains, the ground, the sky, the water bodies, everything started disintegrating until finally, there was nothing left.
The World was devoured, Nux, Lane and Shadow Lane now stood in an Outer Space surrounded by Universal Energy, it was so much that Lane and Shadow Lane were both forced to go back into Nux’s Shadow because they couldn’t survive being in
contact with the Universal Energy for too
long.
On the other hand, the Black Hole seemed contended after having its meal. Just as it calmed down, Nux decided to go
inside the Black Space and notice any
changes, but then,
*THUNDER* *THUNDER* *THUNDER*
*RUMBLE* *RUMBLE* *RUMBLE*
The Universe reacted.
Yes, it wasn’t done yet.
This time, it didn’t just react, it had decided
to attack Nux.
Instantly, Nux was surrounded with dense
Universal Energy. Yes, the Universe was using poison to surround the one who was taking everything away from it and wanted to end
it all.
After all, it was the only thing it had complete control over and could use whenever it wanted.
But…
It was useless.
Nux couldn’t be hurt with the Universal
Energy, yes, it could hurt Lane and Shadow
Lane, but Nux made sure that it would not affect his Shadows.
Lane and Shadow Lane were absolutely
safe.
‘It won’t wo-‘
Nux wanted to declare confidently, but
then,
“AAAGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!”
He screamed in agony. Without warning, a sharp, searing
sensation exploded behind his eyes. His vision blurred as a wave of heat crashed
into his skull.
Pain.
The concept that had become foreign to him after thousands of years of training, suddenly made itself known, and not as the
dull ache he could have dismissed anytime
he wanted, but something much more terrifying.
Nux’s body trembled, his breathing became staggered. He gritted his teeth, barely able to stand, but the assault continued. His
mind was flooded, not with thoughts or memories, but with information-vast,
incomprehensible, endless streams of
knowledge that tore through his consciousness.
Nux continued to scream.
It was as if countless secrets were
forcefully injected into his mind all at once.
The veins on his neck and head bulged, his eyes became bloodshot from the pressure
building inside.
The weight of the knowledge was too
much. Even he, who had lived for over a million years, chasing knowledge in order to form his own Law, felt like he would be
buried under this vast mountain of knowledge that pressured his head.
In the end, he reached his limits. The pain he felt far beyond any threshold that was possible, to protect itself, his mind shut itself off and the next instant, Nux lost
his consciousness, forced to drift into open space, surrounded with endless Universal Energy the Universe was trying to attack
him with.
What’s worse was that the two women in
his shadow, who heard his screams,
couldn’t even come out of his shadow because just before he passed out, he locked his own shadow using the powers of the Shadow Demon and Absolute Kinesis.
Yes, it was a countermeasure he created
inside the Illusion knowing that his wives would very well risk their own life to make
sure he was safe.
And yes, he had come up with
countermeasures for all of them.
After all, he was a crazy being with a
million years given to him to do whatever he wanted.
He had strayed much farther away from
‘normal’ than anyone, even the people who claim to know him the best, could imagine. .
