Chapter 499 - 500: Mas...ter?
Once just a minor presence in Aster Grant’s team.
Her powers leaned more towards being supportive.
Thus, after obtaining the Divine Position, her mindset unknowingly began to change.
Being able to exert Divine Level warfare in Chyterra gradually made Scarlett disdain the few Pseudo-God Level Swarm Kings.
But quickly, Scarlett paid the price for her carelessness.
Scarlett emerged from The Void once more, her figure now somewhat staggering.
Her body, once radiating divine allure, now clearly dimmed a bit.
Moreover, several grim, dark green energy corrosive wounds appeared on her shoulders and waist.
She breathed rapidly, a trace of trepidation glinting in her scarlet eyes.
Just a little bit more!
Just a little bit more, and she would’ve been left there!
Although she holds a Divine Position, the Swarm King cannot completely kill her.
However...
As long as they shatter her body, relying on Chyterra to re-consolidate physically.
That might be an unknowable number of years later.
At this moment.
She breathed rapidly, continually surveying her surroundings.
Only then did she realize...
Unbeknownst to her, she had arrived at the edge of Chyterra.
Here, the spatial structure is no longer stable, filled with visible black cracks and chaotic energy currents.
In the distance, the enormous Void Passage to the Alternate Space rotates slowly like the giant mouth of an abyss, exuding an aura not belonging to this realm.
This is not just the edge of Chyterra, but not even purely Chyterra.
Her Divine Position’s authority is severely suppressed and disrupted here.
Space is no longer the domain she can effortlessly control.
Now, each transit has become sluggish.
That’s why she was nearly detained by seven Swarm Kings the last time.
Just at this moment.
Seven pervasive energies lie in ambush from all directions, sealing all her escape routes.
"Damn... these insects!" Scarlett cursed through gritted teeth.
Only then did she comprehend.
They premeditated, step by step leading her to the battleground least favorable for her.
These insects she once looked down upon now taught her a harsh lesson.
Under her watch, seven shadowy figures emerged from the chaotic void, enclosing her in the center.
Seven cold spiritual wavelengths came, carrying blatant mockery:
"Where else can you jump to?"
"Surrender your Divine Position and source entirely! Integrate into our race!"
Feeling the spiritual wavelengths of these Swarm Kings, Scarlett’s heart gradually sank.
If there was only one Swarm King, she might still escape with her current power.
Her gaze swept across the scene, but seven altogether...
She knew today leaving...
Very difficult!
She attempted to invoke Divine Power, only to find the link with Chyterra becoming intermittent.
Witnessing her actions, the Swarm Kings’ spiritual wavelengths came again, this time carrying unabashed triumph.
"Give up! Your power here is less than one-third of your potential!"
As the words fell, several Swarm Kings slowly approached, mountain-like bodies casting shadows that almost engulfed Scarlett’s petite figure entirely.
"Don’t make futile struggles, newborn Divine."
"Your Divine Position and source will become nourishment for our race’s Evolution."
"This is your honor to assimilate into the great Swarm in our presence."
Honor?
Hearing these words, extreme disgust flashed in Scarlett’s eyes.
During her time in Chyterra, she truly understood this Race.
No feelings, only reckless pursuit of resources!
They constantly invade weaker worlds to expand their Race.
Endlessly producing Low Tier Swarm, having them slaughter each other to evolve.
One could say, they are even more brutal than the Demon Clan!
And wish her to assimilate into this race?
Her eyes brimmed with anger.
She would rather self-destruct her Divine Position, completely dissipate into the unobservable.
Absolutely refuse any association with these grotesque Swarm!
"Dream on!"
She forced herself to summon the last of her body’s Divinity, "Want my Divine Position? Then bring your lives to fill!"
"Stubborn!"
Seeing Scarlett’s decision, several Swarm Kings roared furiously.
Immediately, without any warning, all seven Swarm Kings struck.
The combined strike of seven Pseudo-God Level Swarm Kings triggered a chain reaction in the fragile spatial border.
Spatial currents boiled like oil, dark cracks crazily spread, as if this area would collapse entirely anytime.
No evasion, no retreat!
Scarlett’s eyes flashed fiercely, disregarding consumption, and began to burn the remaining Divine Power and source madly!
Golden Divinity blazed like a dying light, she doesn’t dodge, her hands virtually gripped, forming two long blades of pure spatial fragments to confront the strike head-on.
Even if destined to fall, she must tear a piece of flesh from them!
However, at the moment this attack was about to engulf her.
"Buzz——!!!"
In the distance, the slowly rotating Void Passage to Alternate Space abruptly vibrated intensely!
The internal relatively stable silvery vortex rapidly boiled, accelerating as if a gigantic entity was forcibly squeezing through from the other side!
Soon after, a dazzling sword light capable of cleaving chaos burst forth from the passage!
The sword light wasn’t massive, but distilled to perfection.
Wherever it passed, chaotic spatial currents, fragile border spatial structures.
Even Chyterra’s pervasive viscous dark energy, silently split, revealing the profound void beyond.
This sword precisely struck the attack of seven Swarm Kings!
"Rip——!"
Like the sound of fabric tearing.
The strike from the seven Swarm Kings, under this blow, forcibly split into halves.
Violent energy backlash caused the colossal bodies of the Swarm Kings to briefly pause.
Scarlett, burning her source, jerked, gazing in disbelief towards the Void Passage.
The passage’s vibrations didn’t cease.
Following the sword light, a tall figure calmly stepped out from the turbulent vortex.
Black hair, black clothes, eyes deep like ancient wells.
His aura wasn’t domineering or aggressive, rather somewhat restrained.
Yet assumed an indisputable stance, stabilized the nearby tumultuous space.
He stood there, seemingly becoming the core of this chaotic realm.
"Master...?"
Scarlett’s purple eyes widened, almost thinking she was hallucinating.
She confirmed several times, only then accepted...
This wasn’t an illusion!
Her master truly arrived here!
