Chapter 2553 - 1117: Secrets of the True Gods (Part 2)
As the God of the Vampire Race, the Blood Baron had his ability further enhanced in this aspect. It was no longer about randomly extracting memory fragments but consciously controlling it to extract what was useful to him.
In the Bottomless Abyss, this ability was incredibly useful, enabling him to obtain accurate intelligence more easily.
Taharissi’s incarnation closed its eyes and perceived for a while. Suddenly, its scarlet eyes snapped open, directly turning towards where Gaven was hiding, seemingly reflecting a golden figure inside.
"Go." Gaven twisted and burrowed deeper into Zelata.
Taharissi obviously possessed the ability to lock onto him, or more precisely, she had the ability to lock onto the Wealth Goddess Contract.
This locking wasn’t through Prince Grazte of Ubar, but rather from the divine mark left by the mutual erosion between her and the Wealth Goddess Woken.
"Find these rats for me!" The Blood Baron emitted a piercing low-frequency scream.
Countless bats, big and small, soared from Zelata, flying everywhere, continuously sweeping everything around with infrasound waves.
As long as these infrasound waves swept over Gaven and his companions, their whereabouts would be immediately exposed to the Blood Baron.
"Putana, Flamestorm." Gaven commanded.
While speaking, he twisted and transformed first, assuming the form of a flamestorm. However, the flames he emitted were not red, but golden.
This was caused by the power of the Wealth Goddess Woken spilling over. Even in her state as a Saintly Incarnation, her strength could not be compared to the current Gaven, naturally influencing him by immersion.
"Alright, let’s completely ignite this place, burning everything around!" The Burning Flames Queen let out a thrilled roar, transforming on the spot into a massive flamestorm, dancing along with Gaven.
In front of the flamestorms into which they had transformed, those demon bats appeared immensely weak.
Once caught within, even the demon bats with large or super large body types could not escape the fate of being ignited and burned to charcoal.
The two flamestorms separated and merged at times.
When separated, they were like two large hands, waving forward.
When merged, they turned into a colossal whirlwind of flame, the coverage not twice as much but double.
In such a city full of constructions, this flamestorm was simply a disaster, wherever it swept, the flames would spread there.
The numerous buildings ignited in flames would further bolster the power of the flamestorm.
The Burning Flames Queen took malicious enjoyment in igniting constructions. Every three to four rounds, numerous fireballs would spray out from her flamestorm incarnation, blossoming all around, reaching as far as half a kilometer.
In other words, the sea of fire they ignited in Zelata started at a kilometer and spread in all directions.
"You have some nerve, daring to wreak havoc in the territory I protect."
Gaven’s reckless behavior infuriated the Blood Baron Archial, who transformed into a beastly state, half man, half wolf, chasing them while growing larger, soon exceeding over a hundred meters.
Scarlet blood divine power twined around him, resembling an amorphous blood cloak.
He raised his head and let out a mad howl, "Blood Sea!"
The blood cloak exploded with him at the center, sweeping out in all directions.
"Run! That bloodthirsty beast has gone mad, wanting to devour our blood!"
"No, no, I don’t want to die!"
"Archial, you bastard, I curse you..."
The demons in Zelata cursed as they frantically fled away from the Blood Baron.
The flamestorm mainly ignited Zelata’s constructions. Those demons weren’t fools. Seeing the situation wasn’t right, they either fled early or burrowed deep into the constructions, resisting stubbornly.
Before those buildings burned entirely, they wouldn’t die for a while.
The Blood Baron’s blood cloak was different; it was pervasive, directly penetrating into the bodies of all living things along the way.
Whether mortals or demons, their entire blood would boil, rushing out from their seven orifices or wounds.
This method of blood-sucking through divine power was terrifying beyond measure, utterly complete, draining all the blood from their bodies, leaving not even liquid behind, turning them into mummies like wind-dried for a thousand years.
Once the blood flew out, if flames were nearby, they would immediately engulf it, burning more vigorously than dry wood. After all, the bodies were rich in grease, emitting a stench one would never forget.
Yet a single demon’s blood fluid was not terrifying. What was terrifying was when thousands demon bloods gathered together, forming a surging blood sea, entangled around the Blood Baron, rushing together toward the raging flamestorm as he strode forward.
Gaven and his companions did not engage the Blood Baron in battle at all. Seeing the hundred-meter giant he transformed into quickly catching up, they directly transformed into a golden giant eagle, taking advantage of their speed to evade him along with the Burning Flames Queen.
Even against a Demon God’s Godhood Form, subsonic speed was advantageous.
After all, in the Multiverse, teleportation existed, and mastering it wasn’t particularly difficult.
As long as it surpassed a hundred kilometers, and the destination wasn’t forbidden or unknown, those great ones wouldn’t bother taking the time to travel; they would directly teleport.
Thus, even among the True Gods, few deliberately pursued speed.
