Bro, I'm not an Undead!

Chapter 1285: Disappointment (2)



Reaching Divinity allowed one to share the properties of their body with their soul and vice versa. The soul would become able to exist without a body, and interact with physical matter, and the body would become able to interact with spiritual matter.

In addition to this, a Divine being manifested a Broader Existence - special, hidden space that existed between their body and soul in a conceptual sense. This is what made Divine beings hard to kill.

While their body and soul were fused, it was extremely difficult to harm them through their Broader Existence and kill them. However, if their body and soul were split, damage to either would be reflected on the Broader Existence.

Skullius had done just that using his Second Grand Tier Andori, [Elusive Meta Carver], a quick, invisible slashing attack that only attacked immaterial, intangible matter.

The Hybrid Warmoth himself had wondered if he should have used [Ruining Cutter] - [Elusive Meta Carver]'s counterpart that cut only material objects - instead, but judging by his own experience with his changed soul, he recalled that the soul remained an immaterial subject even after Divinity despite its ability to attack physical matter like the body.

[Would you like to invoke AKHASHA?]

'Invoke Akasha, huh?' Skullius said to himself, but he didn't pay the notification just now any mind.

He still had three other Cavern rushing after him at tremendous speed; they made sure to avoid the range of the effect of his [Entropy's Harmonising Nimbus].

Skullius scoffed.

'Do they really think they'll be safe if they avoid that ten-meter range?' he thought, and flicked a finger in the air while activating [Elusive Meta Carver] once more.

The three Cavern suddenly froze. They couldn't move.

Their movements had been cut up!

In that fraction of a moment when they were dazed, stunned and shocked, Skullius increased the range of his nimbus' effect. The three Cavern were suddenly stitched to the world with strings of merigold Ju`wtte and sheets of purple-gold ice layered over them while expelling a freakish cold.

[Maximum Frost] was a Parlous Nature that employed Maximum Catalyst to coat enemies in freezing cold that transcended Absolute Frost at speeds they could hardly react to - more than fifty times the speed of light.

[Frigid Time] was a Parlous Nature that caged enemies in time cooled to the point of freezing. It was on a different level than the skill, [Cold Time] which Skullius had used before against his possessed counterpart.

Both of these World rank Exotic Parlous Natures expressed through the nimbus completely immobilised the enemy, but couldn't kill them.

Skullius sensed one of the Cavern ejecting its soul and immediately coating itself with Exora Amras in anticipation of being attacked relentlessly.

Skullius sniggered.

The two others did the same, but it didn't help.

Exora Amras was ranked from World, Sage, Realm, Star, Void, Cosmic to Reality Affluents. All the Cavern here had Exora Amras at the World Affluent, but Skullius' was of a tier higher - at the Sage Affluent tier.

Dark flames bathed the Cavern's body as his Immortal World Physique churned. The smaller Cavern readied itself too, Amras leaking from its hands.

Suddenly, the large Cavern caused bulbous, twitching blobs of flesh to appear before him, and a huge body similar to his own, Amras, Physique and all was formed. It bellowed with fury at

the enemy.

...!

'Oh!' Skullius' blind eyes shone.

The replica charged towards him, passing the dreaded ten-meter range that all the others had frozen within to reach him. It raised its huge arms and hammered them down with all its might. The motion caused Aigas to flicker between its normal state and a void with strands of

Rules.

BOOOM!

The impact caused a ripple across dozens of kilometers in all directions, but this didn't mean

anything.

Skullius had received the two arms of the replica Cavern in two of his hands easily.

He grinned.

"Is this a better challenge now?!" he called, and his third arm cocked back. Golden mana rushed through it, but so did something else.

The property that had been installed in Skullius' mana core - the one he forged after Sila destroyed his original one - remained, and was applied.

During his battle against the alter, Skullius had noticed that the bastard had actually managed to amplify the tonnage he received to 300 million tonnes.

However, that was back when he had purple core with a few tens of millions of units of mana.

Now, Skullius had a huge golden core with more than 745 million units of mana, coupled with

a Supreme mana manipulating skill.

The current tonnage he was able to exert onto his body, was 44 billion tonnes!

Even without adding Amras into the mix, a blow from such an absurd amount of weight could

harm even a Divine. But Skullius was petty. He also reinforced his body with Null Life Essence before throwing a punch that no one in the area could see!
