Gacha Sovereign-Chapter 1166: Next Stage?

Meanwhile, on another planet where the Supreme Beast and his servants decided to rest, the Supreme Beast stood upon them while looking at the kneeling servants before him.

"To think I would have gotten defeated for the first time…" The Supreme Beast narrowed his eyes.

"My King!"

"You were not defeated."

His servants obviously tried to deny it because it was so humiliating to be defeated. At the same time, the Supreme Beast acknowledged it once again as he recalled all Alex's actions. "The reason we can escape like this is due to the Spirit God's character.

"In fact, the current situation didn't state any winner. Both of us might cause mutual destruction during this battle while most God Kings ended up dying. However, this will be the last chance to kill us, so the Spirit God decided to prepare for everything even if it means giving us a way to escape.

"You might haven't realized this, but he has killed four of you during this battle while injuring me. That's right. Everything looked so smooth while the rest of his people were his burden.

"He believes this result is enough for him. After all, it means he has enough people to kill all of us right now, even when I return. Normally, it's enough for him to keep chasing us, but mutual destruction is not something he wants to see, so I'm sure he is planning to restore everything first before coming for my neck.

"Obviously, we're going to lose him right now while camouflaging ourselves to make sure no one knows my exact position. This will buy us a few years as long as we're careful because they won't have enough courage to attack us without any information, fearing an ambush.

"Hence, I am confident that the Spirit God actually wants to win this without having anyone dying. That's admirable for him. Although there are a few flaws in his arguments and strategy, he is a man I respect even though we're enemies.

"Unfortunately for him, I won't let him just get away with everything. By using his softness to his family to our advantage, I'm going to succeed in reaching the next stage. While I'm breaking through, I want all of you to disperse to hide my body. I have enough confidence that with all of you here, they won't be able to find us.

"Anyway, because he knows how hard it is to find us, I'm sure that he is going to advance to the next stage too. With this, no one needs to die and the Spirit God will be the biggest winner. That's why… Angel, are you ready?" The Supreme Beast turned to Angel with a serious expression.

"I'm ready for everything, My King." The Angel nodded.

"I'm sorry for doing this to you, but we're at the turning point. If I'm found out first, we will lose. At the same time, I'm sure that the Spirit God will choose to advance to another level first because he will be able to find me. I don't know how much he understands the next level, but I will assume the worst.

"To put it simply, if I can't reach the next level before him without dying, I will lose… Probably. I don't know how strong his Nine Purities Slash will be after reaching another level, so yeah…" The Supreme Beast let out a long sigh.

Most of his speculations, especially why Alex decided to let him go, were mostly true. He simply didn't wish to have his wives and people die. There were Lin Xingzhi, Anna, Jeanne, Leoz, Marcus, and even Alaya on the battlefield.

It might be foolish, but it defined him. If not, Alex would have decided to kill the Dragon God, Phoenix Goddess, Battle God, and Earth God during the previous war without caring about his casualty.

The Angel nodded and clasped his hand. "Everything is for you, my King."

He then tapped his golden staff on the ground as Life Energy began to gush out of his body. He completely turned into something like his own pet when he wanted to let the beast consume the energy to recover his power.

However, unlike the previous time, the Angel seemed to have turned the power into another type of energy. Even if Alex were here, he wouldn't be able to comprehend this type of energy because he had never seen it before.

There was no trace of elements like Spiritual Energy or Divine Energy, making it look pure. Yet, the pressure emanating from this energy was far greater than the Spiritual Energy. Even all his servants felt the natural suppression this energy gave.

"What is this energy?" The Earth God muttered before keeping that question to himself, knowing that he shouldn't bother his master.

Suddenly, the energy created a chain reaction where the planet began to rumble. It turned out that the planet itself released another type of energy that gradually fused with the Angel's energy.

There was only one thought in their minds after feeling this energy.

'Strong.'

This type of strong energy might be able to surpass the Spirit God easily. And they realized that they had the chance to gain this energy as well.

After following their king on this journey, they might be able to get stronger by reaching the next level. This was also the reason why the people of this universe actually abandoned their own universe.

The power temptation was far too strong.

"Kh!" The Angel gritted his teeth, enduring the pain that was transmitted by the mutation of his power. He combined the two forms of energy forcefully, so this was like a backlash. The others also knew that there would be a time they could do something like this without the help of the Angel, so they observed the entire process attentively, making sure they didn't miss anything for various reasons.

The Angel kept fusing the two bit by bit. The pain might not be lower than Alex's body refining, but for their purpose, the Angel needed to withstand this power for a bit more.

After fifteen minutes long, the Angel fell to his knees, but his eyes were filled with determination, looking at the beast with a serious expression. He just finished the process, fusing the two forms of energy inside his body and said, "My King, I'm ready. Please."

"Yes." The Supreme Beast nodded and swallowed him as a whole like how a large snake was able to eat a human. All of the energy remained inside the beast's body as he began refining them bit by bit.

At the same time, the Supreme Beast became sleepy like how other monsters actually underwent their transformation.

"I will be leaving my body to all of you. Take care of it and you shall be rewarded." The Supreme Beast commanded them with a strict tone. Actually, there was another reason why they obeyed him. The fact that the parasite was inside them, the beast could take their lives as simple as flipping one's hand.

"Yes. We understand, My King." All of them shouted as they watched how the Supreme Beast slowly fell to the ground, sleeping.

Because of this incident, there were already one Dragon, one Phoenix, two Angels, and two Bats destroyed in the alliance's hand.

If one took another look at it, the progress was good because they only had two Bears, one Dragon, and six Bats. And half of them were Pets.

That was why Alex decided to stop pursuing them, so no one sacrificed themselves.

…

In another place.

While the beast tried to break through to the next level, Alex also made his way toward the Black Hole where he could reach the Abandoned Universe because he needed to go to Encore once again, visiting the last door.

He looked at the altar where he was supposed to receive an inheritance, but it soon changed to something he couldn't recognize.

As if feeling Alex's strength as a Rank 1 God, the ground started shaking once.

Rumble.

Rumble.

"What is happening?" Alex activated his Spirit Eyes to see his entire surroundings, finding that the last room seemed to be shining brightly. For something this bright, the amount of energy released to the outside was far tremendous than he thought. In fact, this was the first time he had witnessed concentrated energy this big.

"!!!" He soon realized something in that door as it gradually climbed to the top, leaving all the other doors behind. "Seriously? There's something moving the door to the top? I don't see any kind of mechanism, though."

Faint suspicious energy emanated from the door, and as this mysterious energy spread out, the ground started to shake even more uncontrollably and collapse. The collapsed ground was where the door would break through to reach the surface.

The entire planet suddenly trembled. Alex couldn't comprehend what this was anymore. "Kh. I seriously don't know what's going on…"

Still, the door kept moving until it finally reached the surface, revealing its appearance. There was silence in the world as Alex couldn't even comment when he saw the appearance of the gate.

Although he didn't find any changes on its surface, he realized that the gate turned out to be just a simple gate. There was nothing behind the gate and it wasn't like a Space Element covered this gate. Yet, Alex could feel a tremendous amount of energy leaking through the gate.

"This gate… Is it connected to something? But I don't see Space Element." Alex furrowed his eyebrows.

Suddenly, the gate was opened from the inside, showing something that Alex never expected.

"This…" Alex dropped his jaw to the ground as he instinctively entered the gate and the latter gradually closed itself, leaving one clicking sound at the end.

Clack.
