Chapter 908 - 442: Crystal Divine Spirit
Pure Fire Element and Power of Dragon intertwined, exploding into golden-red blazing flames, the rumbling sound causing clouds and Magic Power in the surrounding garden to ripple waves into the distance.
Agni’s roar faded along the Golden Path, amidst the intertwining strange trees of the garden, a building seemed extraordinary in the distance, but no existence responded; only clusters of cloud mist silently drifted around.
The cloud mist at Li Ang and the dragons’ feet covered the ground full of Immortal Mushroom and Exotic Fruit, only the path paved with Divine Crimson Gold could emit light piercing the mist.
Saw these mists upon entering, but Li Ang didn’t expect that they were spirits stagnant in this place.
Compared to the evolving and constantly forming Wilderness World outside, the garden seemed like an isolated Immortal Realm.
Spiritual Mist guided the power of Magic Power Dimension, infusing everything in the garden, nurturing treasures beyond nature, whether it be the fruits of plants, or the pieces of gemstone congealed beneath ponds with mysterious ripples, all are materials matching with Divine Crimson Gold.
Li Ang stretched out his hand covered with Silver Scale, yet was unable to actually harvest these high-tier materials. He couldn’t help but "tsk".
Spirit should have resided within matter, granting it various characteristics, but was extracted out, maintaining the garden’s unparalleled prosperity in the form of cloud mist.
This is the handiwork of the Eldest Son of God. Truly worthy of the creation prevailing in heaven and earth, becoming the leader of all things.
These treasures, even the Dragon Gods were envious, Agni, however, was straightforward, since no one cared, he opened his mouth and began devouring the nearby Ganoderma Fruit.
With just a few bites, his power increased significantly, though not as much as during his previous rage.
"Garden of the Gods, Ten Thousand Spirits, why bring us here..."
Compared to Li Ang who could accept the sight before him, Diao tightened her spirit, took a deep breath, and softly recited incantations praying to the Ten Thousand Spirits.
"No wonder someone unable to control their own power would come here to steal my achievements."
A voice suddenly sounded, simultaneously, a silhouette appeared in the mist.
Li Ang hurriedly looked, he wanted to witness the form of the Primordial Being.
The speaker was a person like crystal.
This "Eldest Son of God" indeed appeared in human form. According to the Divine Will’s order of the world, one could say the human races of Nebis were modeled after him.
However, his skin and hair were semi-transparent, like white diamonds or crystals, as if the Creator hadn’t decided what color this world should be and thus didn’t grant him color.
Li Ang couldn’t conjecture whether he had similar physiological structure to human races, but seemingly there was a sense of shame, this "Primordial Being" wore a long robe exquisitely embroidered with all things of the newborn world—flowers, grass, trees, mountains, rivers, clouds, oceans, beasts, birds, and Dragon Race.
At this time, without a loom, the garments of the Primordial Being were evidently molded with sophisticated material control techniques, crafted from his simple understanding, while the human form avatars of the Dragon Gods seemed to mimic features combining their biological traits with the appearance of the Primordial Being.
Akuya wore a powder-blue long dress with scale and water patterns, Thanatos crafted a finely woven dark-patterned robe.
However, Li Ang noticed that the myriad patterns on the Primordial Being’s robe were positioned off-center, upon closer inspection, just by standing there, he appeared like a painting of him high above, surrounded by all beings.
"Zosia!"
Agni roared at this Primordial Being: "What trick did you use to steal Inanna’s power?! Just now you deceived us! Inanna is still here."
"Oh?"
The Eldest Son of God named Zosia looked towards Li Ang, as Inanna hid behind Li Ang, who had transformed into a dragon.
Zosia’s crystal eyes gazed at Li Ang for a moment, saying: "Interesting, really interesting."
"Although we always perceive Father God’s will, besides giving birth to us, He also distributed power to those inferior beings who only have His outward appearance but not His power, and even other lower-order species are about to be born, I didn’t expect that you would exist.
"Sharing the power of dragons, resembling us in appearance, remain here."
The Eldest Son lifted his semi-transparent hand, the ultimate Magic Power within it leaving behind pale blue lightning like his veins.
Li Ang’s body tightened, pressure from different directions instantly surrounded him.
"Li Ang!"
Inanna shouted nervously but was cast aside by an invisible force, rolling into a pile of Divine Crimson Gold fragments.
Diao’s form grew larger, transforming into a giant bear, her paw impacting the invisible force field enveloping Li Ang, yet her mighty strike was dissipated into nothingness.
"Don’t be anxious."
Li Ang said to them, carefully feeling this force.
Since this is the illusion realm presented by Land of Ten Thousand Spirits, the extent of danger can be imagined from the Transcendent Realm painted landscapes, however, the matters at hand as he just said, seem more like drama, as if guiding something, not yet reaching the dangerous moment.
This pressure aligned extremely closely with the Spiritual Force Field.
Li Ang raised his Prosthetic Hand, golden scale armor unfolded piece by piece, his own force field expanded out, neutralizing the force field released by the crystal person.
"How is this possible..."
Completely unanticipated that Li Ang could resist him, Zosia’s calm indifferent expression instantly transformed into immense shock, even twisting his face, causing cracks in the crystal surface.
"Well done!"
Agni shouted excitedly, glanced at Li Ang: "I believe you’re not on his side, come with me, let’s rescue our sisters!"
The Fire Dragon charged towards the Primordial Being like a blazing fireball, triggering a column of flame, hot wind scattering.
However, the hot wind didn’t disperse the surrounding Spiritual Mist, which Zosia guided with his outstretched hand to swiftly repair his injuries.
This move was indeed controlling spirits.
Deus People inherited directly from the Primordial Being, the Primordial Being surely could control spirits, and even they could use spirits to modify their living environment, making this place seem like a higher-format small world.
Li Ang was not surprised that he could reach this step; what he marveled at was that the Eldest Son of God, worthy of being the original High-Ranker, controlled the spirits without casting like the Dragon God wielding their Power of Dragon and corresponding Elemental Power—it was nearly instinctual.
Neither the witch, the Spiritual Forger, nor even the Deus People were truly using magic power to mimic the abilities of the Primordial Being.
Thanatos conjured a Shadow Spear beside him, compressed it, and threw it; each one completely obliterated everything it touched.
Akuya was a bit bewildered by the situation before her, especially by what Agni had said, but she joined her brothers in attacking. Her three dragon heads spewed torrents, foam, and cold streams respectively.
Leviathan swam through the air, summoning waves to surge towards the Crystal People.
Zosia looked casually at the Dragon God’s attacks and, with a wave of her hand, erased the spirituality within their attacks, rendering all the assaults invisible.
This technique, isn’t it just like the Crimson Demon’s?
Li Ang recalled the dissipating fluctuation from the first encounter with the Demon’s Hand, which could resolve attacks on the spiritual level.
Although he analyzed the Acceleration and Slow Spell, Li Ang still didn’t know how to perform this dissipating fluctuation.
Zosia, this name, was also mentioned by the previously frantic Inanna.
The Crystal Divine Spirit, with one hand suppressing the young Dragon Gods, pointed the other at Li Ang, manipulating spirituality to simulate blood-red thunder.
This was a Dragon Power attack, evidently Zosia assumed Li Ang was of the Dragon Race, wanting to test if he could withstand high-tier Dragon Power to determine his format.
Diao crossed her hands, calling for the aid of All Spirits.
Beside her, plants within the Spiritual Mist broke free from their nurturing stands, writhing and growing, entwining with surrounding vines, transforming into Woodland Elves, stepping forward to block the Dragon’s Thunder.
"Hmph."
Zosia snorted disdainfully, the thunder exploded in torrents, shattering half of the Woodland Elves’ bodies.
"Let my creation defy me?"
"Li Ang, Great Witch, watch out!" Diao couldn’t continue with other means and nervously warned Li Ang.
"It’s fine."
Li Ang raised the Orichalcum, concentrating a Decomposition Light Wave.
The reverse Melting and Gathering Law decomposed everything around into primitive particles, the Blazing White Light brutally dissipating everything, swallowing the blood-red thunder, penetrating towards the Primordial Being.
Li Ang’s hair was blown wildly by the shockwave, and in the moment that left even the Dragon Gods stunned, the Decomposition Light pierced through, instantly vaporizing half of Zosia’s crystal body.
The Primordial Being fell to the ground like a shattered idol.
"This, this..." Agni was completely shocked.
"Don’t just stand there, go save her."
Thanatos aimed straight as he sprinted towards the depths of the Spiritual Mist.
Li Ang also shouted for Diao to keep up.
He saw Zosia’s figure blur and disappear; everything before him was an illusion realm and couldn’t really count as him defeating such a formatted existence. Perhaps it was the Six Dragons’ victory back then, or maybe he just altered the illusion’s storyline.
What’s important is what lies ahead.
Above a venue filled with many mysterious instruments floated a mass of fresh breeze, within which a green cat was trapped.
Looking at the surrounding instruments, Li Ang roughly judged that they had to do with controlling spirituality, but he couldn’t recognize more.
Parts of the instruments were adjusting the Wind Element and spirits, all being extracted from that cat.
"She is the last sister we’ve been searching for!" Agni told Akuya and the others.
Wind Dragon of the Six Dragons, Annette?
Li Ang knew the Wind Dragon’s name and also knew its original form was a large green bird with three pairs of wings and two pairs of sharp claws.
In front of him, this was a winged cat. It seemed to exhibit a different form due to the world’s differing state.
The winged cat, with green and white interwoven fur, trembled. It appeared very frail due to its power being extracted.
The Dragon Gods immediately acted to rescue it, and just as they rejoiced, the Crystal People reappeared not far away.
"Inferior beings with the visage of Father God, your very existence serves to let us seek the true meaning of Father God’s powers."
Zosia’s words provoked the dragons into a furious growl.
"Let’s go!" Akuya said, "With a new sister, our power will ascend to a new level. We don’t need to fight him head-on now!"
"Be careful, he has helpers." Agni’s golden-red dragon eye cast a complex glance at Inanna beside Li Ang.
Zosia beckoned, and the ground beside him surged fiercely. The layers of mud with the crimson fog peeled away, and a voluptuous young girl with two horns and beast ears emerged from within.
She bore Inanna’s appearance, yet the Crimson Demon’s spikes enveloped most of her body, only that bewitching face was exposed.
Li Ang stood in front of the real Inanna, holding the Magic Staff tightly, cautiously watching this demonization of Inanna in the illusion.
The Demon Maiden glanced at everyone, licked her red lips, raised her sharp claws and grasped upwards, playfully laughing, "Domain: Bloody Red Land."
The entire world was enveloped by reversing earth rock and pervasive crimson.
