American Exorcism Male God-Chapter 479 - 443 Primordial God (Grand Finale)_4
The tumors on his body's surface dissipated like shaken off snowflakes, the wounds healed rapidly, the swollen flesh began to retract, his body gradually shrunk, and it became more human-like.
But his momentum, rather than increasing, declined, becoming even more terrifying, and finally reached a completely imperceptible realm, as if returning to simplicity and truth.
Xu Yi's transformation was completed; the heads on both sides of his neck vanished, his only face with closed eyes, solemn and tranquil, like an enlightened monk or even the Buddha himself.
Three slits appeared on his forehead, and as they split open, there revealed three distinct pupils, dazzling gold, bright silver, and fresh blood red.
Although his body had shrunk, he could still be called a Giant, his entire body a pale grey, like mountains or steel, intricate patterns somewhat visible beneath the skin, belonging to the runes of Origin.
An aura of mystery spread, and in this moment, Xu Yi gave off an air of "I am the law, the master of all methods."
Xu Yi suddenly regained a trace of consciousness, opened his eyes, and looked blankly at the empty heavens and earth.
Memories surfaced in his mind, slowly recalling the process of devouring the Ancient God, but instead of joy, his face revealed a look of terror... for the Entries panel had remained completely still.
If he had truly killed the Ancient God, the system should have been able to absorb a powerful High-Level Entry.
It was then that a maniacal laughter echoed in his ears.
"Thank you! Really, thank you so much! The Primordial Body, ah! With just one more, I can become the true master!"
A hideous face emerged on Xu Yi's chest, its features constantly shifting, and one couldn't determine its gender even from the mad laughter.
A flood of information poured into Xu Yi's mind, and he suddenly understood the cause and effect, glimpsing the ancient secrets of this world.
The world was born from the Primordial Sea, and before the Primordial Sea dissipated, it spawned two ancient races: the Ancient Gods and their Disciples.
Though of the same lineage, they were intrinsically brutal and murderous, completely lacking the concept of peaceful coexistence.
They could even grow stronger by devouring each other.
As time passed, the Disciples all died, with not a single victor; their corpses congealed to form the Three Great Primordial Gates.
As for the victor among the Ancient Gods, it was undoubtedly Chronos, the Swallowing World Mouth, who grew to become the supreme ruler.
Chronos represented the soul of the Primordial Sea, while the three gates represented the body of the Primordial Sea—both belonging to the Origin, yet repelling each other, never meeting for countless millennia.
But now, through Xu Yi's mediation, they had unexpectedly merged into one.
Xu Yi screamed in agony, his soul in excruciating pain, as if someone was drilling into his crown and pouring boiling water into the brain through the opening.
The Ancient God was attempting a Possession of his soul.
As the embodied soul of the Primordial Sea, Chronos's most horrifying aspect was that Its soul was almost eternally indestructible.
Xu Yi's soul was too weak to stand a chance.
The end seemed predestined when suddenly, ash began to fall from the sky, and with a piercing alarm, a Divine Kingdom slowly descended, where distorted and hideous monsters faintly visible; this was the world born from Alessa—Silent Hill.
Roaring flames suddenly spread across the entirety of Silent Hill, monsters turning into torches and howling as they ran; this illusory Divine Kingdom was heading toward Annihilation.
The World Power from the Divine Kingdom's collapse flowed ceaselessly into Xu Yi's soul, seemingly attempting to aid him in his struggle.
Alessa, dressed in black, projected in front of Xu Yi's chest, reached out and grabbed the continuously changing face of the Ancient God.
Black flames rose from Alessa's body, silently spreading over the face of the Ancient God.
As the flames burned, Alessa's figure grew fainter and fainter. Against a being of the Ancient God's caliber, only by burning herself could she have any effect.
"Futile struggle!" The Ancient God sneered in disdain, Alessa's sacrifice hardly affecting it.
For the Ancient God to possess Xu Yi, it first had to devour Xu Yi's soul, and now their souls were merged.

Influenced by Xu Yi's soul, the Ancient God no longer spoke in an ancient tongue, so Alessa could understand as well.
Alessa said nothing, just quietly watched Silent Hill's Annihilation and quietly allowed herself to burn, eventually turning to ash and scattering.
The Ancient God looked on indifferently at all this, Its gaze suddenly shifted to Xu Yi, and then it froze... even at this moment, Xu Yi was actually smiling.
Was his adversary insane? The Ancient God was filled with doubt.
Xu Yi's smile was wretched, but he was indeed smiling.
The Ancient God was utterly unaware that Silent Hill's burning and Alessa's sacrifice were not for the purpose of rescuing Xu Yi, but were rather a sacrifice.
Within Silent Hill resided a multitude of aberrations; by killing them, Xu Yi would obtain a batch of Blank Entries, not to mention the High-Level Entry gained from killing Alessa.
Those flames had all been lit by Xu Yi.
If only Alessa had struggled even slightly, the flames might have been extinguished, but she did nothing, allowing the flames to consume her.
Alessa did not know Xu Yi's purpose, but she could sense his emotions, choosing to believe in Xu Yi in her final moment, sacrificing herself for a chance at life.
The newly obtained Entries began to burn, the Entry repository was emptied again, and the progress of "Master of Time" reached 97%.
