Rise of The Anti God-Chapter 700: Angering The Abominable Fiend
"You better not get yourself killed, or else I will make sure you will get reincarnated as a dog!" Luna warned sternly.
"Hey! My master doesn't deserve that!"
"Again, about the dog thing. Seriously, Luna," Damien shook his head with a helpless expression, thinking that he never should have mentioned getting reincarnated as a dog in the first place. He then asked, "Can you tell me what is the actual strength of that creature?"
"Sigh...that ugly thing is just a newborn, and yet it is at the First Level of the Noble Nethereal Realm," Luna said with a head shake.
"A newborn??" Damien realized he overlooked the fact that it had just been born due to its sheer size. He had never seen a newborn, man or beast, being born that size. Even Valentina was just a cute cat at 16 years, but he knew her evolutionary process was not really the same as normal ethereal beasts.
But what also surprised him was the cultivation of the Abominable Fiend, which had surpassed the limits of this continent and was at the fabled realm nobody in this continent could imagine.
"The gap between the peak of the Profound Ethereal Realm and the First level of the Noble Nethereal Realm is that big? What was my peak strength level?" Damien asked since previously, when fighting Ruthren, he thought he might have become strong enough as someone at the First Level of the Noble Ethereal Realm.
"You must be kidding me. Noble Ethereal Realm is a whole nother league compared to the previous realms. In that realm, you can use your own ethereal energy to manipulate the environment around you, just like what this ugly thing is doing out of pure instinct. In other words, it has the power to create a domain of its own where it would manipulate the environment in such a way that the domain would favor it the most while weakening its enemies. If you get caught up in its domain, then you are done for since it dictates the rules of that domain. Now, do you understand how fucked you are if you try to lead away that thing?" Luna asked with a scoff.
Damien had a blinking expression, not expecting the Noble Ethereal Realm to be that overpowered. He already knew what a domain was when he faced off against Yohr, and that itself was a nightmare. He would have been a goner if not for Luna.
As if that wasn't enough to create pressure on Damien, Luna added, "Since you asked about your peak strength level, the best you have been at was indeed the Peak of the Profound Ethereal Realm, the maximum any soul could go in this continent even surpassing Ruthren's cultivation by some degree. But there is still a huge chasm between your peak and the Noble Ethereal Realm. Even if you had a breakthrough of one level, it still wouldn't be enough. You will get crushed like a twig."
Luna's cold words of truth shook Damien's confidence in leading it away, but it didn't shake his determination to do what he set out to do. But at least now he knew where he exactly stood against it in terms of strength.
He stopped high up in the air and conjured a jet-black lightning bolt in his hands. He didn't bother to make sure it was the strongest lightning bolt since he knew it wouldn't matter, nor was he expecting this to hurt the Abominable Fiend.
He lifted his arm as he took aim at the Abominable Fiend, which was twenty-five miles away where it was still busy devouring and destroying everything in its sight. It was literally in a frenzy.
"Come to me," Damien mumbled as he threw the lightning bolt as it zoomed through the air. Within just a few seconds the lightning bolt found its mark,
*SCREEEEKKK!!!* The Abominable Fiend let out an ear rendering metallic screech as the jet-black lightning bolt struck its back, making it look in the direction of where the bolt came from.
And before anyone could bat an eye, it leaped into the air, covering more than a mile just like that. And when it landed, it cracked the earth as the land shook while demolishing the buildings in the surroundings.
"Shit!" Damien quickly turned around and started to fly in the direction of the island where Anton Vahn had left behind a secret gate to the Old World.
This was the first time he saw a huge creature covering so much distance with ease despite having a heavy body.
He was already circulating his Anti-God energy to the maximum to push his speed limit as much as he could since there was a good chance the Abominable Fiend would catch up to him despite the headstart he had given himself.
Damien knew his speed was his strongest suit, more than his strength.
Anyone nearby looking up at the skies would see a jet-black streak speeding through while from behind, a giant creature was covering more than a mile with each leap, trying to catch up to the lightning streak.
"How the fuck is that thing so fast?!" Damien clicked his tongue in frustration as he could feel the pressure of something very big and strong slowly catching up to him.
If he could, he would have given himself a longer headstart, but that was the best he could do without missing his target.
Within just a few seconds, it was already getting very close to Damien, and he could even feel his speed getting slowed down. He quickly and frantically sent a mental message, "Lily, now!"
Suddenly, the skies around him seemed to turn a brilliant white as if a mini-white sun came out of nowhere, spreading its beautiful yet powerful radiant light in every direction.
*SCKREEEE!!* The Abominable Fiend stumbled upon being startled by the scorching white light and shuddered in discomfort, making Damien sigh in relief, thinking he bought himself more time.
But it immediately released a black mist that surrounded its body and let out an angry screech as it continued to follow the flying human without being bothered by the light.
