THE GOD EATER

The true body in the sky still had a lot of lifespan and was nowhere near his limit of Entropy, but Martial Will still gave up on the fight without hesitation. He didn’t use the life-leech either, even though he could do so.

In his infinite mercy, he didn’t unrelated people to die just because he was weak, so he decided to leave every divine being in the Transformation Pathway alive. However, he destroyed the records of the Metacs and Divine Metacs in the Transformation Supreme Metac so that the dragon or anyone who assimilates it in the future won’t take advantage of his years of hard work.

Not long after he stopped supporting the avatar, the avatar’s body collapsed and scattered. The star of many colors that represented the Transformation Pathway in the Sea of Worlds also dimmed and went out.

Martial Will accepted these changes with silence. But Black Chains screamed, saying, ”Nooooo! How could you do this to me!!!”

Martial Will responded with a sneer, ”You’re blaming me for this? What a load of bullshit. And I would know bullshit when I see it since I’m sometimes a bull.”

The more he spoke, the angrier he became. His voice rose higher as he said, ”If we’re being unreasonable, I should be the one to blame you. After all, I only sent my avatar because you sent yours. If you hadn’t been so greedy, I wouldn’t have lost a pathway.”

”But I didn’t do that. I didn’t blame you because I understood that I took a gamble and I lost. If my gambling is not your fault, then you have even less reason to blame me.”

Instead of backing down, Black Chains said, ”So what if you lost? Since you were going to lose anyway, you should have held on to help me. That would have made your loss worthwhile.”

In turn, Martial Will snorted and said, ”I’m not one of the puppets you control. It seems you don’t know that.”

While Martial Will was speaking, the pressure of his existence was shrinking. The intensity of light his true body was producing was also reducing.

The other Dao Lords surely noticed this sign. However, they also noticed that Martial Will’s pressure didn’t weaken as much as someone who just lost 85% of the source of their power.

Tepid Scholar’s eye twitched in annoyance when he saw this. Then he thought to himself, ’I always thought he was mouthing off when he said he could beat me. It seems he has a reason to be confident.’

Heavenly was also thinking. Her thoughts were more suspicious, though.

She thought, ’How many pathways does he really have? Three? Four? Or five? How can I find out?’

As for Sword Maestro, he thought in admiration, ’No wonder he didn’t mind losing the Transformation Pathway. It must hurt, but I’m sure he has something to fall back onto.’

Down below, the Transformation Supreme Metac had appeared. It was a large piece of animal skin made by patching together pieces of the skin of different animals. So it was a rough-looking piece of skin.

Someone concerned with taste and fashion would probably prefer to stay far away from the rough animal skin. Being so close to it, they might want to kick it away as fast as possible.

The dragon didn’t seem to be one to care about superficial looks, though. It didn’t recoil at the sight of the patched-up animal skin. It

grabbed and took away the animal skin.

After laying claim to his loot, Loki looked around for the next possible prey. He looked in the direction of the south. When he didn’t see any worthy prey in that direction, he looked at the east.

But the east was also barren. So he turned to look at the west.

As his gaze swept over the world, he saw that every star that wasn’t frozen by him had either been killed by him or had returned to the divine constellation. Without anything else to kill and devour, his gaze lingered around the divine constellation.

’Should I go there? I doubt I would be able to gain anything since they wouldn’t leave out their Supreme Metac for just anyone to take. But it shouldn’t hurt to try.’

Scenes of the things that could happen if he entered the third dimension made him shake his head, thinking, ’You know what. It could hurt to try.’

’Who knows if there is any difference between the divine constellation and the third heaven? What if the true body of Dao Lords can reach me there?’

’Forget it. I have some work to do here anyway. Once I’m done with it, I’ll consider giving it a go.’

So he turned back the way he came. He flew through the Blessed Heaven World as if he was the only one in the world while the gazes of Dao Lords bore down at him and through him with curiosity, admiration, or hatred.

He reached the mind hunter avatar first. This avatar was translucent like glass. He could see right through it as if it were really made out of glass.

The avatar was currently sealed away by a thin layer of invisible temporal force. The expression of confused surprise on its face was frozen in place for anyone to admire. It made the glass monkey look like a sculpture.

Loki took some time to admire the unnerving expression on the monkey’s face. Then he grabbed the monkey’s head and squeezed.

As he squeezed, the power of the Blade of Time Metac in his external body swept into the monkey’s body. This deactivated and removed the power of the Time Stasis Metac in the monkey’s body.

Without the power of time stasis, the monkey could move around again. The monkey could finally try to escape now. But for some reason, it didn’t run away from Loki.

This surprised Loki somewhat. He raised a scaled eyebrow at the monkey and said, ”Go on now. You’ve been trying to escape for so long. You now can move, so you should go.”
