Chapter 555 Towards the End
Chapter 555 Towards the End
"The Corpse of Gods..."
Standing quietly in the coffin, bathed in golden light, gazing at the majestic scenery outside, Adir gently stroked his chest and murmured to himself.
After hundreds of years of transformation, when the bloodline of the Demon Wolf God was completely digested, everything about the Demon Wolf God was also absorbed by Adir, including his memories and the king's experiences.
Having obtained the memories of the Demon Wolf God, and with the accounts of Tarina and others over the past few decades, Adir also realized that the root of the world's strangeness lay not in anything else, but in that divine corpse.
The divine corpse created everything and destroyed everything. The corruption of a divine corpse not only created the current blood pact system, but also turned large areas of land into a demon realm, bringing utter disaster to this world.
"In a way, my successful resurrection was partly due to that divine corpse."
Quietly recalling everything about the divine corpse, Adir suddenly muttered to himself.
Demons are created by devouring the flesh and blood of divine corpses. They are deeply influenced by the power of divine corpses, and their bodies are naturally tainted with the characteristics of divine corpses. This makes their bloodline transcendent, carrying a terrifying sacred quality.
It was this extraordinary essence that prevented Adir from succumbing immediately, stubbornly holding up his bloodline from collapse until the moment his transformation was complete.
Because of this experience, Adir had a much deeper understanding of the power of that divine corpse than others.
"The decay of a corpse can not only pollute the entire world, but the remaining flesh and blood can also nourish several peak fourth-tier demon gods... This divine corpse was probably already beyond the fifth tier in life..."
As he gazed into the distance, this thought flashed through Adir's mind.
This world is vast. According to Adir's observations and perceptions, at its peak, it was no less powerful than the former Knight World and could support the birth of fourth-order beings.
This powerful world was corrupted by the residual power of a corpse, even forcibly altering the laws of the world and creating something as illogical as a bloodline contract.
This is no longer a simple fifth-order power, but a power that only beings of at least the sixth order can possess.
A fifth-order being is incredibly powerful; in many worlds, the destruction of a world is but a thought away.
However powerful such beings are unlikely to be able to change certain laws of a world.
A fifth-order being can destroy a world, can inscribe their own will in a world, and even their power alone is enough to destroy some small worlds, but they cannot affect the operation of the world's laws.
In Adir's vision, only a sixth-order being could achieve this.
Standing quietly in the golden coffin, Adir looked up and gazed in a distant direction.
A gaze pierced through layers of barriers, glimpsing scenery thousands of miles away in an instant, until it continued to spread and gradually extended into a dark region.
In Adir's perception, a faint call was coming from that direction. In the deep mist, something seemed to be pulling and calling for Adir's arrival.
The source of this cry was none other than the bloodline within Adir's body.
Having devoured everything from the Demon Wolf God, the qualities originating from the god's corpse were also accepted by Adir, fused into his bloodline, and transformed into a part of his own foundation.
"Don't rush..."
Gazing at the distant mist, in a daze, Adir seemed to see an altar, a tall coffin standing on the altar, and a tall divine corpse.
He muttered to himself, "The time will be when I devour all the other demons and gods, and then I will come to see you."
A divine corpse, possibly of a sixth-order or even higher level, is something Adir would never let go of.
At present, Adir's main body has already stepped into the fourth tier and is about to reach the peak of the fourth tier, but it has also reached a bottleneck.
The wizarding traditions in the Maison region have been severed, and those above the fourth rank have long since disappeared. There is no path ahead for Adir, and he can only grope his way forward on his own.
If we could obtain that divine corpse, perhaps we could research something and point Adir on the path ahead.
Even at the very least, Adir could try to devour that divine corpse and fuse it into his own bloodline.
If Adir could swallow a corpse that was suspected to be a sixth-tier god, it would at least help him break through the barrier to the fifth tier.
Of course, there will definitely be risks involved.
Even if a sixth-tier being has been dead for countless years, he should not be ignored. Any arrangements he may have left behind could create an incredibly fierce killing intent.
However, Adir didn't care about this.
Even if the worst happens, the worst that can happen is that this clone perishes.
·······················
While waiting, time quietly passed, and several years soon went by again.
At noon, when the sun was high in the sky, a wisp of energy flashed across a vast wilderness.
hiss! !
Within the ruins stretching for thousands of meters, a giant snake nearly a thousand meters tall roared to the sky, its entire body covered in strands of blue scales, concealing every inch of its flesh and blood, making it look as if it were wearing a sturdy suit of armor.
It hissed in mid-air, its blue scales shimmering with flickering light, sometimes bright, sometimes dim, until it finally exploded.
boom! !
The most violent explosion erupted, instantly altering the entire sky. Countless elemental particles surged forth, transforming into beams of elemental light that crashed down upon the giant serpent, completely severing its life force and leaving no opening whatsoever.
The sky trembled violently, and amidst endless radiance, the giant serpent crashed down, its body shattering into countless particles, returning to its most primal form.
Tap tap tap...
Light footsteps came from the side.
On a giant rock, Adir, dressed in a long robe, calmly watched the giant serpent collapse before him, his expression unwavering.
"This is the fourth one..."
He raised his head, looked at the corpse of the giant snake before him, and gently raised his head to speak.
Behind him stood Tarina and Irida side by side, with Cardan and some servants in grey robes beside them.
Gazing at the colossal serpent before them, at least several thousand meters long and stretching as far as the eye could see, resembling an ancient mountain, their faces revealed awe and fervor. As they looked at the boy's back, their excitement grew even stronger.
"The Demon Wolf God, the Mad Tiger God, the Demon God Hek, and now the Giant Serpent God..."
Looking at Adir before her, Irida spoke, her voice filled with both sigh and deep emotion: "The few remaining demon gods in this world have all been eliminated by Your Majesty. From this day forward, there will be no more demonic calamities in this world..."
He said excitedly, his face full of fervor even though he was usually calm, as if he were witnessing an epic event.
The others were the same; whether it was Tarina, Kadan, or the others, they were all incredibly excited, staring fervently at Adir before them.
"It's not completely over yet."
Gazing silently at the corpse of the giant serpent god before him, and sensing the fervent excitement of the crowd behind him, Adir spoke softly, his demeanor captivating: "The mist has not yet dissipated, and the corpses of the other demon gods have not yet been found."
"Most importantly, the divine corpse hasn't been completely dealt with yet..."
"Your Majesty." Hearing Adir's words, an elderly man stepped out from the crowd and bowed respectfully. "After decades of research, we have a rough idea of the approximate locations of the other two demon gods' corpses. Give us a few more years, and we'll find them!"
He said it with absolute certainty, his expression resolute.
"it is good."
Adir nodded, without pressing him further.
In fact, he didn't hold much hope for the two long-lost demon god corpses.
Those two demon gods perished in an accident long ago, their remains lost to the unknown. With so many years having passed, their bodies have likely suffered some mishap; even if they weren't devoured by other calamity beasts, the essence of their bloodline is probably almost gone.
Adir only sought out the corpses of the two demon gods because of the strong suggestion from Tarina and others, and he decided to give it a try.
He turned around gently, and the gloom in the sky gradually dissipated. A ray of sunlight shone on him, revealing his fair skin. His handsome face appeared full of vitality under the dim light, making him look like the most beautiful scenery at first glance.
He gazed softly at the enormous corpse lying in the distance, sighed gently, and then strode silently toward the remains of the giant serpent god.
Several years passed quickly.
Just as Adir had predicted, Tarina and the others' actions ultimately yielded little result.
Those two demon gods perished in a distant era and are now lost in the depths of mystery. Over the long years, all traces of them have been erased, making it impossible to find much of them.
Tarina and the others risked their lives, venturing into dangerous places multiple times in their quest to find the remains of the last two demon gods, but aside from finding some broken bones and traces, they gained nothing else.
However, in terms of the integration of human nations, some good results have been achieved in the past few years.
In the name of the Gluttonous Demon God, and with the support of the numerous kingdoms led by the Kuma and Yarian Empires, the human kingdoms have now been completely integrated, and a new, vast empire has been born. With Adir as its leader, it has nominally replaced the original kingdoms, causing the wars and conflicts that once filled the world to disappear.
This process naturally involved absolute military suppression, but for Adir, it was just a matter of waving his hand.
Once everything was completed smoothly and steadily, at the edge of the misty region, Adir set off again, silently walking into the depths of the mist.
"Your Majesty, are you sure you don't need us to accompany you?"
Looking at the boy before her from outside the mist, Tarina spoke, her face showing some worry.
"The power of the mist is far greater than you imagine. Even if you get through, you'll still have to retreat once you reach the depths of the mist."
Standing on the flat ground, bathed in the rain and sunlight, Adir's white robe billowed in the wind, his long hair flowing freely: "Instead of wasting time by my side, it's better to stay outside and focus on the integration of the nations."
"We'll keep an eye on it." In the distance, Irida nodded, his face still as handsome as ever, looking spirited and triumphant at this moment.
Adir nodded: "My scales and bone fragments contain a portion of the power I left behind, enough to unleash the power of a demon god, sufficient to suppress all nations."
"During my absence, you will be in charge of affairs until my return."
"Yes!" The group nodded in unison, looking at Adir.
"Very good." Adir smiled and looked at the group of people in front of him.
Tarina, Irida, Siruria...
Several familiar figures passed by one by one, but Ire and Sireia from back then were notably absent.
Compared to Tarina and the others, Ire and Seria ultimately failed to advance to level three, slowly dying over the centuries, never living to see the day Adir's resurrection.
However, this is inevitable.
When you're on your way to the finish line, there will always be people who fall behind until they eventually disappear from your sight. No one can change that.
Adir had no intention of changing this, he simply sighed silently, then turned and left, his figure transforming into streaks of light in the sunlight before disappearing from the spot.
