Chapter 373: Vol5 Ch43: Chaotic battle

〖 How cautious 〗

‘Negary’ looked at the formation master, who had now curled up into a ball in a corner, and scowled.

In that instant just now, the formation master had retrieved both the Distant Heaven and Thick Earth formations, engraving them upon his own body. The originally huge formations had now receded to remain only around his body, causing the s.p.a.ce around his body to appear blurry like frosted gla.s.s.

This was the formation master’s strongest defensive posture. Having confirmed ‘Negary’s’ strength, he resolutely gave up on his original goal and protected himself as a priority.

‘Negary’ put on a new set of clothing that was a couple sizes larger, then slowly adapted to the power of the first Divine Embryo.

After that, he manipulated the Vitality Siphon formation to cause its structure to continuously change. ‘Negary’ had actually studied formations before, combined with his understanding of Life, this type of vitality-related formation couldn’t hold its secrets from him for too long.

Due to its birth in a mana-rich environment, the first Divine Embryo had an excellent innate ability to sense and manipulate mana; and thanks to the outer sh.e.l.l of mana that it was encased in during incubation, the first Divine Embryo’s vitality was also immense, his current life span alone would be around 1000 years.

Furthermore, the first Divine Embryo had also evolved to gain a new characteristic. Every bit of vitality mana that his body produced would carry with it his life signature, this made it so that he had gained a vitality invasion ability.

According to ‘Negary’s’ a.n.a.lysis, this characteristic was most likely inherited from Michael’s maggot infecting ability.

〖 Of course, infecting is only the initial phase 〗’Negary’s’ vitality mana began to pour out within the formation. Bit by bit, the Vitality Siphon formation was altered, eventually shrinking into a small circular pattern in the palm of his hand.

This was the true application of ‘Negary’s’ vitality invasion ability, everything, including the world itself, was a living body, a scattered yet unified living body.

In different aspects of reality, they appeared in different forms.

His vitality invasion ability could a.s.similate everything, turning them into a part of his own existence.

Of course, the current vitality invasion ability was limited in what it could actually invade and infect. With ‘Negary’s’ current capabilities, the most he would be able to invade was the total ma.s.s of a 3-story house, after that, he wouldn’t be able to infect anything else.

And so, the first thing ‘Negary’ chose to infect was the Vitality Siphon formation, which he then engraved onto his body.

〖 This way, my offensive capabilities would be sufficient 〗

‘Negary’ thought, then raised his left hand. The formation on his palm lit up to block a burning sword that was swinging down on him.

A grey ma.s.s of power poured out from the formation and enveloped the sword, crushing it almost instantly. A ma.s.s of vitality mana was extracted from that and returned to ‘Negary’s’ hand.

Turning towards where that attack came from, ‘Negary’ saw that it was a knight who wasn’t wearing knight armor. From his previous attack, he most likely belonged to the Sun Shadow Church.

While they might have been unsure earlier, the newly reborn ‘Negary’ in his first Divine Embryo form now emanated a strong aura of Life; the Sun Shadow Church, who weren’t too friendly towards the Half Life Church, immediately considered ‘Negary’ an enemy and attacked him.

〖 Someone who obtained an invitation to the Mana Banquet from a different source, huh? 〗

This knight wasn’t wearing his armor, and he had also melded into the peanut gallery earlier, so without the burning sword, ‘Negary’ wouldn’t have realized that he was part of the Sun Shadow Church without paying particular attention to him.

〖 A pre-coordinated attack? 〗

‘Negary’s’ gaze scanned through the entire hall. Including Great Magus Stim, there were 18 people in total here, if the Mana Fetus was also accounted for, then it would be 19.

Among them, the host Stim sat firmly on his seat without acting, a few House of Mages members who saw that it wasn’t appropriate had also chosen to gather behind Stim without trying to compete for the Mana Festus. Of course, there were also exceptionally sharp ones hiding in a corner without partic.i.p.ating in the chaotic battle.

All in all, a total of 11 or 12 people were currently fighting, the main goal was still to take control of the Mana Fetus, other than the House of Mages, the Sun Shadow Church was the strongest force here with the highest member count.

If everyone hadn’t consciously or subconsciously banded together to stop the Sun Shadow Church, the Saint Soul Awakened would have already arrived in front of the Mana Fetus.

A total of four people from the Sun Shadow Church had come to this Mana Banquet, two of whom had disguised themselves as unaffiliated members, while the other two were the Saint Soul Awakened and his servant.

Other than that, the rest were leaders of medium or small-scale organizations, or those without any affiliations, all of whom were utilizing their own means of combat. All sorts of mana and other forms of energy were unleashed into the hall, drifting around the Mana Fetus.

The Sun Shadow Church member stared closely at ‘Negary’ as his skin slowly reddened. Flames then manifested from the palm of his hand to form a sword of fire, after which he charged towards ‘Negary’ once again.

〖 It’s only the warm-up round, is that really necessary? 〗

‘Negary’ clearly understood the goals of the Sun Shadow Church as well as the other G.o.d worshippers for coming here: they wanted to confirm Great Magus Stim’s current state. There might still be some room for those mages here right now, but once the true probing began, the majority of the people here would be cleared out, one way or another.

‘Negary’ opened the palm of his right hand and released a ma.s.s of vitality mana, air rapidly converged towards it, manifesting as a half-transparent flaming lion on top of ‘Negary’s’ palm.

The source of all mana was s.p.a.ce. Evil G.o.ds had the ability to directly absorb outer s.p.a.ce matter and convert it into high-quality mana; the world could also absorb outer s.p.a.ce matter to form Source Energy, then further deteriorate into mana.

The current ‘Negary’ was still in the process of researching the state of which the outer s.p.a.ce mana sources were in, but once it had been converted into Source Energy or deteriorated into mana, the absorbed s.p.a.ce matter would have already become a part of the living body that is this world. For that reason, mana was also living.

By absorbing the ‘Life’ of the flame sword, then fusing them with other lifeforms’ characteristics and granting the product a vessel, he was able to create a unique kind of lifeform. Naturally, these lifeforms were highly unstable and would most likely collapse by themselves after a short while.

〖 However, that’s more than enough! 〗waving his hand forward, ‘Negary’ sent the flame lion towards the charging Sun Shadow knight.

Flame and flame weaved between one another, the intense heat clashing in the air. Having the advantage of being made from air, the flame lion rushed through the fire sword and tried to chomp the knight.

As the flames washed towards him, the knight wasn’t at all fl.u.s.tered, allowing the flames to burn him as they pleased. The flame sword in his hand disappeared as he struck the flame lion’s body with his fist; a small red point appeared on top of his hand, which converged all the flames around him towards it.

The flame lion’s body was also distorted and warped as it was absorbed into the red point as well, which eventually turned into a small crystal that looked like it had circulating lava within.

Holding the crystal in his hand, the knight didn’t seem to be burnt at all and charged towards ‘Negary’ again, only to be greeted by more abnormal lifeforms.

‘Negary’ had pressed his left hand on the ground to siphon more vitality mana from it while his right hand was weaving more abominations, producing monsters one after another.
