The Growth of a God

Chapter 19: Child of Divine Abomination (4/5)


"Your opponent... is me!"

As those Ascenders approached the Autonomous Combat Insect, a white figure shrouded in a black robe suddenly emerged slowly from within it.

Similarly, it enhanced its own abilities to an incredible level...

Similarly, it reached the point where its physical body could break the sound barrier swiftly...

The first Ascender to collide with the shadow in the black robe instantly realized the opponent's strength.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The Ascender questioned themselves, even in their own world, they belonged to those who could crush a large number of others with their basic attributes.

The powerful physique required to break ten times the speed of sound was indeed worthy of being called Vajra Indestructible.

Yet, the shadow in the black robe opposite them surpassed them in terms of physique.

In the brief exchange, less than a breath's time, it sliced off one of their arms like a blade.

"Be careful! That's a 'Vajra Element' Ascender!"

Realizing the danger, the Ascender immediately shouted, but it was already too late.

When the black-robed shadow lifted its robe, revealing its three-faced, six-armed skeletal form, a high-speed bullet suddenly pierced through the Ascender's skull.

Swish—Boom!

Employing the most advanced firearm principles from the Burrowing Insect Civilization, the bullet was forged from their own strongest dental bone.

With the unreasonable energy catalysis reaction from the Ascender, the power of this bullet could even penetrate the earth's core.

The only flaw of this weapon might be the immense burden on the user, as well as each bullet consuming a Sun Stone.

Even the first Skeleton Ascender, Ah Ke, was not extravagant enough to bombard those Ascenders with a rain of bullets.

This Godslaying firearm was Ah Ke's trump card.

Under normal circumstances, Ah Ke preferred to engage in close combat with those Ascenders, wielding six different weapons.

Just like now...

Clang! Clang! Clang!

After placing the [Godslaying Spear] back into their ribcage,

Ah Ke continuously drew out their spine and arm bones, transforming them into bone weapons like knives, spears, swords, halberds, axes, battle-axes, hooks, and forks, and fought together with the Ascenders.

You could say that Ah Ke, battle-hardened, showcased what it meant to be "a frenzied warrior, undying in battle."

Completely indifferent to self-expenditure, their skeletal form, inherently without weak points, became the most troublesome and feared existence for those Ascenders at this moment.

"Undead! It's a Skeleton! It's a Skeleton who ascended to an Ascender!"

It must be said, the Ascenders from Dokwi World indeed lived up to their extensive knowledge, quickly recognizing Ah Ke's true form.

Unfortunately, this shock only intensified compared to the earlier one.

"Undead? Could those skeleton frameworks nurture such a powerful Ascender!?"

"Even Skeletons made from remains of Ancient Dragons didn't have such powerful combat abilities!?"

"Wait, it's not alone! It has companions!"

...

Amidst the upsurge of roars and exclamations, over ten more Ascenders emerged from within the Autonomous Combat Insect.

Although they did not possess Ah Ke's overwhelming combat power to fight many alone, they were also elite among the Skeletons.

Ever since Ah Ke forged a unique Path to Divinity for the Skeletons, successors have emerged to become new Ascenders through the same approach continually.

Regarding this cross-border war, these Ascenders were the first group to respond to the Bone Chant and decisively came to the battlefield.

In this rare massacre, the Skeleton Ascenders seemed to rediscover the frenzy once regarded as the "Child of Divine Abomination."

..................................................

"Have they lost control?"

Silently appearing in the shadow of ruined remains, a Burrowing Insect was dumbfounded watching the battlefield in the sky.

To ensure that the Autonomous Combat Insect could inch closer to the cavity constantly spewing black sludge, the Skeletons fought desperately, displaying a madness distinct from that of the Mountain and Sea Realm.

For those who were fighting, it wasn't just the Ascenders among the Skeletons.

Inside the Autonomous Combat Insect, many more Skeletons were also repairing and maintaining the structural integrity of the Combat Insect.

One, two, or even a couple of them might be excusable, but having so many Skeletons keep calm and fight in unison demonstrated a frenzy even greater than being out of control.

"Out of control? How did you conclude they lost control?"

Walking slowly from behind the Burrowing Insect, an Immortal with a smiling face asked in a low voice.

"We are not Cave Dwellers; we never lose sight of our goal."

Hearing this, the light in the Burrowing Insect's eyes dimmed instantly, yet it couldn't refute the Immortal's words.

Because, as stated, had the Cave Dwellers not lost their goal, that past grand battle wouldn't have ended in such a crushing defeat.

"You're right; you aren't us, and your Creator is not our Goddess."

For some reason, the Burrowing Insect suddenly harbored a doubt regarding the Gods.

The so-called Omniscient and All-Powerful God ultimately failed to prevent the world from collapsing and vanishing.

Does such a God still deserve faith?

Or, more accurately, when the "All-Knowing and All-Powerful" Golden Body of a God is shattered, hasn't this entity deceived their followers?

"If... I mean if..."

Suddenly turning to the Immortal, the Burrowing Insect's entirely mechanized body appeared exceptionally out of place at this moment.

"If I'm willing to convert to the Creator, could I also cease to be lost like you guys?"

Upon hearing this, the Immortal looked stunned.

"Convert to the Creator?"

"I remember this being considered a blasphemous act of betrayal against the Gods in your tradition, correct?"

Facing the query from the Immortal, the Burrowing Insect merely gave a faint smile.

"If there's betrayal, it's the Gods who betrayed us."

"Moreover, the True God is dead; whether these Pseudo-Gods can sustain our faith is still in doubt."

Now, instead of being stunned, the Immortal looked at the Burrowing Insect with utter shock.

He never expected that this Burrowing Insect could see through Kanas's disguise and realize the truth about the fallen gods of Marz long ago.

"This... I can't decide..."

After a moment of hesitation, the Immortal looked back up at the sky.

"Only Balian can decide things like this."

Following the Immortal's gaze, the waiting Immortals also joined this epic battle.

Although they didn't exhibit the frenzied undying state of the Skeleton Ascenders, their bizarre abilities surpassed the others in more than one way.

Also being Ascenders, the immortal-bodied Immortals deployed suicidal, dragging techniques.

Tit-for-tat curses and Exorcism were rampant.
