DEVIANT

361 True power of the matter absorption ability

Faith power can be considered the currency of this world. Only those who receive prayers are strong and wealthy. It was everything in this world and gods lived by rules. If there are so many dumb rules then there must be a rule about a god not praying to another God.

What are the possible consequences?

Are his plans even feasible?

Alex had lots of questions but he knew all of them will be answered once Xinxiu prays to him. But just as he expected, she quickly shied away and retreated as if she was showing against the greatest foe she has come across. Her eyes were like two bright lights, cold and cruel. A part of her that he has never seen.

“Why won’t you pray?” Alex asked with a stern look while he remained in a cross-legged position. He had done absorbing the energy of the orb and he already knows how his powers work. It’s limitations and more.

He wasn’t afraid of anyone on the same level as him.

“Heh! It’s a taboo that cannot be allowed to happen. It seals the fate of another God!” Xinxiu said coldly

Ding!

[Praying to another God puts a god in eternal servitude. They no longer require prayer and are sustained by the power of the God they have submitted to. Their follower’s prayers will be directed to the God they choose to submit to as well and once the God they choose to dies, everyone God under servitude dies as well. All top and mid-tier factions in this world have this kind of relationship with their members]

.....

Wow!

Alex was stunned. The system gave him the information he needed just because he asked. Doesn’t it mean he doesn’t need the girl?

Alex’s eyes turned cold as he looked toward Xinxiu. Someone who must have been good-natured but was corrupted by the world.

“You are willing to submit to bigger factions and you don’t wish to submit to me?” Alex asked with cruel lights blazing in his eyes.

“I will gain benefits… I won’t dedicate my life to someone damaged like you. You are only here to help me get back into the city. Consider it as a way of paying for my kindness” Xinxiu said coldly revealing another temperament that no one expects.

“Heh! And what if I tell you that you don’t have a choice? You either submit or die. I’m only giving you this option as a thank you for giving me a heads-up. Outside that, I owe you nothing” Alex was calm but his voice revealed confidence that far surpassed that of many gods and defects Xinxiu has come across.

“Tell me what determines the body a god ascends with,” Alex said.

Ding!

[The body deity is determined by its personality. It shows your inner nature and true form]

Alex smiled cruelly as the system replied. Right now he was sure he didn’t need Xinxiu again. As the system said, it simply means his true form is that of a youth who seeks freedom and has unending dreams. Meanwhile, Xinxiu was just a child who gives little but takes more. She gives almost nothing and believes is enough reason for you to give her everything.

“Good, pure but selfish…. Unfortunately, I’m not a parent that can condone such actions! You are no child but a deity. I will not take you for granted!” Alex’s eyes brightened up as his power swelled.

If they won’t stand by his side, he will remove them all.

“Alex Briggs doesn’t belong to this era

The God of death and destruction

Wielder of the black flame and chaos power.

Lend me thy strength! ”

Alex Briggs’s eyes turned pitch black as he raised his hand and a powerful suction force exploded from his body, pulling everything towards him. Alex’s eyes tightened as he saw Xinxiu standing in the midst of his power unphased. She was wearing an ancient Chinese kimono with a pink scarf tied around her tiny waists but that scarf pierced into the ground, pinning her there.

“I have been a deity for thousands of years and you think you have what it takes to kill me?” Xinxiu sneered and Alex frowned.

These gods are beings who have lived too long and because of that most of them have gone crazy. Each bearing different personalities in one body.

“There is no one, Alex Briggs can not kill” Alex responded dryly as the suction force exploded and swelled in power.

Xinxiu frowned as the ground beneath her feet shattered and she was thrown airborne. Her body began drifting towards Alex rapidly and her eyes chilled. as her pink scarf danced in the wind like a serpent, elongating while shooting at Alex.

Hmph!

Alex let out a disdainful snort as he raised his free hand and a repulsive force exploded from it, deflecting the scarf.

“You are a support type who depends on tools to fight. Do you think you stand a chance against a butcher like me who has spilled more blood than most gods in this world?” Alex bellowed furiously as a suction force exploded from the second hand but it wasn’t from his gravity magic, instead it was from the matter absorption ability.

“Shit! His third divinity can be used on people too!” Xinxiu was stunned as she felt what was left of her power and faith power surging into Alex.

She struggled and tried but she couldn’t break free from his grip and was pulled towards Alex by his gravity magic!

Pa!

Alex grabbed her by the throat as he continued absorbing her powers, ignoring her pleas until what was left was nothing but an empty husk. While he manipulated the power to fix his defect he received a series of messages.

Ding!

[You have successfully absorbed the powers of Xinxiu, Goddess of health!]

[New divinity gained]

Alex was stunned as he tossed the corpse aside like a pierce or rag and look at his palms as if he was looking at some sort of gold mine.

Is this how Danny Ainsworth has been taking the powers of others?
