Corrupt Creations

Chapter 262 - Information

The ancient entity sitting on the throne said: "However, there are two huge differences between us when it comes to corruption. The first one being that while you fear the Supreme Law of Corruption, I am one with it. The second one, being that you have the chance to change everything, to become something else and to get powerful enough to live freely from the tethers that destiny and people impose over you; while I am no longer living."

"You... are dead...?" Seth wasn't able to comprehend what could kill one of the six Primordial True Gods. Actually, the concept of having an encounter with an entity like that didn't fully enter his minds until now. He didn't know how to treat that entity or even how strong he was.

"I, the creator of a primordial concept was not free from its laws, so I was the first one to experience being corrupted. From my own volition, I sacrificed my everything to become one with my own Primordial Law. Right now, I'm like the embodiment of the Supreme Law of Corruption. I am the Great Corruptor and the Great Corruption as well. Every single creature that died and was consumed by the evolution process is now part of me, making me stronger and eternal. However, that means nothing for me. What actually matter is... You!"

Seth didn't even know from where to start comprehending the things he was hearing. He was actually too tiny to comprehend anything the Great Corruptor was saying, so he tried to concentrate on what he understood.

"Me?"

"Yes. You are the first one, you are the proof my Supreme Law of Corruption is a perfect law, yet you are denying it. What do you fear? Why do you fear it? Are you perhaps afraid it will consume you mind and soul? Are you afraid you are going to be consumed by it?"

"..."

"What a joke! If you feel like it will devour you, then consume it back; if you feel you aren't yourself anymore, then fight back and forceful control everything! But instead of embracing that power, you are running away from it! That's not what I want from the inheritor of my legacy..."

Boom!

Suddenly the whole world turned upside down as billions of shards of corruption appeared everywhere. The endless crimson void was completely filled with it. Each one of them seemed alive, as if they were shinning with power and ready to obey their master.

Seth had no way to know that each one of them carried the life essence of a creature consumed by the corruption.

"I cannot forcefully break the fourth seal for you, since those seals were developed to protect your body of a self-explosion from handling too much power, but I will make sure to turn you into a suitable inheritor. One that no longer fears that power, but accepts it whole."

BOOM!

Every single one of the shards exploded, turning into energy sources that contained information. The Great Corruptor was going to forcefully plant that information inside Seth's body and show him the way to operate his ability to the fullest.

Suddenly, the whole world changed and Seth was actually the center of everything. The information contained inside those energy sources started to come towards Seth, swiftly entering his body one by one. They streaked through the air like crimson lightnings, entering his soul and adding tiny bits of information there.

Seth felt like he wasn't able to move at all, like he was tied to that spot. There was an irresistible power restricting him as that continued to happen. On the outside, the whole abyss was shining in red and time had stopped flowing. Lan Xue's body and every other creature there, stood at the same place, maintaining the same condition and posistion.

Blazing Phoenix Country.

Three whole months had passed since Seth and Lan Xue left for that particular mission. At the outskirts of a small city called Misty Horizon, a group of people had just finished mining a huge purple Skystone deposit and were quickly finishing their job and storing their things inside their spatial rings, getting ready to depart.

They were the disciples that were stealthily working for the Lion's Pride Golden Palace, making sure to not attract any attention towards them. Throughout the whole time, Qiao Duyi, one of the Eight Lion Guardians kept overseeing the whole process. The Lion's Pride Golden Palace couldn't permit any mistakes happening at a time like this, so they sent none other than the number one practitioner in the rankings under the Lion King to protect and control everything.

Sending more than just one integrand would make their enemies notice their moves, so they resorted to this strategy. Other than that, the Lion's Pride Golden Palace combatants were too prideful to fight together against an enemy, so Qiao Duyi wouldn't accept any help.

Qiao Duyi was a Profound Mana peak-stage expert and other than a Mana Sovereign, nothing could threat him so easily. The Lion's Pride Golden Palace practitioners were known for their greater toughness and sturdy bodies. Their vitality and strength were just like the vitality of a wild beast and their powers were raw and savage.

However, they lacked what Velgor had. Information.

Even though they were making an alliance, there were no such things when it came to resources on the cultivation world.

Qiao Duyi was sealing the last spatial ring containing the purple Skystones, when his animal-like instinct told him something was off. The forest nearby was too silent and there was this death and darkness smell in the air. He watched as how the disciples were finishing their preparations as if nothing was wrong at all and he suddenly decided to leave.

Not even alerting anyone, his body moved past the speed those disciples were able to sense, disappearing from that encampment before everyone. His speed was so high, that he was able to cross more than two thousand meters in just a few seconds. Other than that, he ignored the whole terrain and kept moving in a straight line, breaking every single tree and easily shattering the small hills he passed by.

However, that feeling of impending danger never left him.

Suddenly, he decided to stop and dodge to the side. The abrupt movement he made caused that forest area to be struck by a thunder clap.

Clap!

But as a big number of trees were falling down, he noticed there was a male figure fully covered by shadows standing right where he was seconds ago. There were some daggers made of darkness on his hands and Qiao Duyi felt he would be doomed if he had been careless. He quickly executed his energy scan and noticed that person was a Profound Mana peak-stage cultivator, just like him.

He only knew a single clan able to produce Profound Mana peak-stage cultivators, a clan of demons his Lion's Pride Golden Palace had an alliance with.

"Who are you? A Profound Mana peak-stage cultivator that uses dark energy... You must be one of the Twelve Shadows, right? What are you doing here?"

That person didn't say anything. He just kept observing Qiao Duyi.

The Lion Guardian Qiao Duyi used his energy scan once again, to scan the whole forest. Fortunately, he wasn't able to sense anyone else, so he decided to act. The people from the Lion's Pride Golden Palace were never patient in their actions and that was a weakness Velgor taught his Shadows how to exploit.

Actually, Qiao Duyi and the strong practitioners from his Higher Ground, had never felt the need to be patient. They were not only strong, but they had a beast constitution that made them so tough that they could ignore most things.

Qiao Duyi started to walk forward and speak in an imposing intonation: "If you have nothing to say, then fuck off my way."

He was already prepared to make the first move if that person didn't move out of his way, but when he blinked, that person suddenly vanished. Impressively, his energy scan wasn't able to point the exact location that person was currently hiding. That situation started to make him feel like he was stranded.

He wasn't able to carelessly proceed anymore, else he could be attacked. Those kinds of situations were the ones he enjoyed the least. It was even worse now that he had to arrive at the Lion's Pride Golden Palace faster due to the resources he was carrying.

Qiao Duyi got impatient and he decided to use the Mana he had previously prepared, to make his enemy leave his stealth.

A golden aura circled around his body and his lungs resonated with it, creating a monstrous lion roar. The shockwave was so strong that a blast destroyed the whole environment.

ROAR!

Trees and rocks were sent flying, clearing the whole path from any obstacles, but it wasn't able to disrupt the Shadow Walk ability his enemy was executing.. However, Qiao Duyi was able to feel slight Mana disturbances in a certain place, where his enemy most probably was hiding.
