Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 1977 Overwhelming The Spirit General!

.

.

Heraldonn was splashed with a deadly acidic venom slime, his scales weakened and his eyes became temporarily blind! Above all, his spiritual energy started to be distorted thanks to the slimeʼs properties.

”[Primordial Divine Slime Shapeshifting Arts]: [Slime Goddessʼ Fist]!”

However, Rimuru didnʼt finished with only that, her entire body transformed into a gigantic slime-made fist and struck down Heraldonn with all her might!

CRAAAAAASSSSHHH!!!

”UUUAARRGGHHH…!”

The impact was not only just a physical blow, but the entire shockwave of the attack also sent a huge explosion of converged elemental energies within Rimuruʼs slime body, Heraldonnʼs crystal scales shattered in a mere instant, and his wings were almost completely gone!

”Y-You BASTARDS! I WONʼT accept this! [Twin Spirit Dragonʼs Breath]!”

With a scream filled with frustration, he opened his two gigantic dragonheads and unleashed a combined Dragon Breath, unleashing most of his Spiritual Energy reserves at once!

TRUUUUUUMMM…!

The two rainbow beams of concentrated spiritual light and spiritual flames converged together, spiraling against one another and transforming into an even more devastating attack!

”[Celestial Thunder Titan Club Arts]: [Heavenly Thunder Axe]!”

”[Apophis Queen Divine Battle Axe Arts]: [Snake Queenʼs Fangs]!”

Brontes and Nesiphae swung their weapons down, concentrating their powerful Techniques and Magic at the same time, and piercing through Heraldonnʼs strongest attack so far, blocking his attack almost completely.

The illusion of a titanic axe made out of celestial heavenly thunder and a monstrous snake made of poison and darkness divine energy emerged, piercing through and destroy Heraldonnʼs attack and then striking his two heads!

CLAAAAASSSH! CLAAAAASSSH!

”URGH…?!” Heraldonn gritted his teeth, resisting the agonizing damage. ”My children, give me your life force! [Spiritual Life Absorption]!”

FLAAAAASH!

Heraldonn attempted to absorb the life force of the Spirit Beast Wyverns he had brought; it seems that they were actually more like his potions than strength!

”Hahahaha! You fools! Now my life has been recovered and- Eh?!” Heraldonn looked around him, quickly realizing that there were no more Wyverns around.

The only thing he noticed was a huge black hole leading to a different dimension, where a gigantic, aberrant eldritch being extended its tentacles, many of them with pieces of the wyverns on them.

Oh and of course, I was quite guilty of their prompt extinction, I had devoured several of them by merely giving them a glance, huge insectoid jaws materializing in thin air chomped them down as I was trying to taste this new delicacy.

And well, it didnʼt tasted that well, it was just a very hard spirit-imbued glass.

”Oops, sorry about that, we were quite hungry with my buddy here.” I laughed, pointing at the Eldritch being that Zehe had summoned.

”Child of Chaos, I am not your buddy.” The entity spoke, before disappearing, his summoning time was over.

”Y-You wiped them all out!?” Heraldonn screamed. ”N-No, thatʼs…!”

”Impossible?!” I laughed, as I pointed my hand at him and decided to try out a new Skill Fusion while we were at it.

Ding!

[You have exchanged 200 Skill Points!]

[The [Mighty Caterpillar Bite: Lv10] + [Soul Eater: Lv10] + [Blood Feast: Lv10] Skills have merged together!]

FLAAAASH!

A bright cosmic light surged from my hands as I started to laugh, the power of fusing these skills was much higher than any other Skills within the Genesis System before!

On top of that, the limit was up to three at most, and they needed to be Level 10 too, but even if it was just three skills combining into one, their power was incredible because they originated from the Origin System.

The Skills resembled spheres of absolute power, converging together into a swirl of chaos and cosmic energy, until an even larger sphere of power emerged, fusing into my body and soul.

Ding!

[You have created the [Soul Feasting Abyssal Caterpillar Jaws: Lv1] Skill!]

[The new [Fusion Skills] Section has been opened within your Status!]

[Any new Fusion Skill will be stored in this Selection.]

”Well, well, letʼs try this out, shall we?” I giggled. ”[Soul Feasting Abyssal Caterpillar Jaws]!”

FLUOOOOSH!

The effect was almost instantaneous. Around the struggling Heraldonn, several swarms of gigantic, aberrant caterpillars resembling monsters from the depths of the Necrotic Planeʼs Abyss emerged, each one as huge as ten meters, opening their gigantic jaws and beginning to devour his entire body.

”W-What is this?! W-WHAT KIND OF POWER IS THISSSSS?!”

With an agonizing scream, and with no more energy to fight back, the annoying dragon had his entire body devoured by five swarms at once, who completely swarmed his body monstrously, and all his HP and MP they devoured was transferred to me as well.

”Y-Youuuu…! YOU WONʼT GET AWAY WITH THISSSSS…!”

Giving out a last scream of agony, his entire body was shredded into pieces, and quickly fell from the skies. Thankfully, Rimuru caught his corpse by turning her body into a giant net.

”Loot secured!” She said happily.

”Wow, that was brutal, honestly…” Brontes was shocked.

”So thatʼs the power of the Skills of this new Origin System, huh?” Nesiphae giggled.

”Naturally, it is a System much more powerful than the Genesis one.” Zehe smiled pridefully. ”For now, letʼs keep moving, Kireina. We should be close to where you sensed Skadi to be!”

”Right! Iʼll extract that dragonʼs memories out of his devoured soul later.” I nodded.

We didnʼt had any time to waste, instantly flying where we had sensed Skadiʼs presence and also several other survivors.
