Chapter 92: Chapter 90: Facing the Ancient

“Such a huge commotion.”

Ye Mingqiu stood on the edge of the Mark of Corruption, atop the peak of a mountain of white bones, looking down at the Flesh Plain below. The ground trembled and throbbed, now undulating like the sea, rhythmically surging.

Why is it suddenly in turmoil?

Is it because it sensed an anomaly?

Although he didn’t know the exact reason, Ye Mingqiu had some guesses. Currently, he was wearing the title “God of Slaughter,” which had a special effect of exerting an intense intimidation on the natives of the Spirit Realm, possibly stimulating the Ancient God Embryo.

But the question is, can the Ancient God Embryo, born from the remains of an Ancient God… be considered a native of the Spirit Realm? Should it really be affected by the “God of Slaughter”?

He remained skeptical.

Soon, a message from the Spirit Realm arrived.

“Hint: Your aura intensity and Slaughter Will made the Ancient God Remains feel a sense of crisis, thereby triggering its instinctual Will to Live, causing an anomaly in the Mark of Corruption.”

So that’s it…

Although the Ancient God Remains is a dead object, it hasn’t completely perished. There remains a survival instinct that persists life, hence it evolves into a primitive Ancient God Embryo, drawing from the World Origin for revival.

And now, the Spirit Realm and World Will suppress the entire world to Level 1 strength. Ye Mingqiu happens to be a Level 1 Legendary Profession holder, with Multiple Talents, high Basic Attributes, notable equipment, maxed out skill levels, and specialties, akin to a walking Dominator Level unit.

If it were just like this, it wouldn’t induce a sense of crisis in the Ancient God Remains. But the problem is, Ye Mingqiu, with such power, is wearing the “God of Slaughter” title, and has the “Slaughter Will” accumulated from killing countless beings.

With this, as he made his way into the Mark of Corruption, the Ancient God Remains couldn’t remain unmoved.

“Even an Ancient God can feel fear?”

Ye Mingqiu murmured, his eyes brimming with endless Battle Intent. His heart beat fiercely, and his breath became heavy.

Gripping the Blood Spear, he moved forward, stepping onto the Flesh Plain as if walking on the body of the Ancient God, heading towards the core where it had yet to be born, softly speaking:

“Omaragon Khan, this is my first challenge against a Dominator Powerhouse. I will face you with a death-defying attitude, without retreat.”

The Blood Spear struck the ground, cutting through the crimson Flesh Plain, carving a bloody abyss, and Ye Mingqiu advanced with determined strides, trailing the Blood Spear through the intersecting patterns on the plain.

Buzz——!

A formless alarm, instinctively emitted from the Ancient God Remains, resonated across the Flesh Plain, spreading outward from the embryo as the center.

“Rumble!!”

The Flesh Plain erupted abruptly. Enormous dark red tendrils rose from its depths, casting huge shadows that blotted out the sky, wildly thrashing around, as if venting its unique power.

And at that moment, the embryo deep within the subterranean core of flesh stirred uneasily, its inner shadow seemingly making a “hug itself” motion, emanating an increasingly terrifying aura.

“Omaragon’s Remains (Level 1 Dominator)”

“Race: Ancient God”

“Life: 6000 (300%)”

“Attribute: Power: 100, Agility: 100, Constitution: 100, Spirit: 100”

“Ability List”

① Ancient God Body (Passive): Life Limit increased to 300%, continuously causing negative effects such as erosion, corruption, pollution, and destruction to surrounding units, and these negative effects possess a high-intensity “Undispellable” trait.

② Invisible Remains (Passive): Units directly observing Omaragon’s Remains will trigger an Instant Death check every 3 seconds, with the check type randomly selected from Power, Agility, Constitution, Spirit, and Will.

If the target successfully resists and the Instant Death effect is not applied, Omaragon’s Remains will impose an additional strong Spirit contamination and Will Decay effect.

③ ???

④ ???

⑤ ???

….

World Will’s information isn’t fully comprehensive. Only two passive abilities of Omaragon’s Remains are known, while the other abilities remain ???.

“Truly strong.”

Ye Mingqiu’s voice trembled. Although Omaragon’s Remains and Li Jing were both Dominator Level powerhouses, their strength was worlds apart, with an unbridgeable gap even in Basic Attributes.

Omaragon’s Remains’ Four-dimensional Attributes are all 100, likely the extreme limit for a Level 1 being, far exceeding Ye Mingqiu’s current attributes, even with the boost from “Unparalleled Divine Bravery,” his power is nowhere near Omaragon’s Remains.

Too powerful.

Facing the onslaught of dark red tendrils from all sides, Ye Mingqiu’s face remained composed, neither worried nor scared, nor crazed or frustrated. Instead, he felt an unparalleled calmness, as if enjoying the last journey of his life.

I might really die here…

Should I escape?

No, how could I, having launched a challenge with a determination to fight to the death, this is no jest.

More importantly, its Agility is as high as 100 points, far exceeding mine. Rather than die pathetically while fleeing, better to give it all in a life-or-death struggle with the Ancient God Remains, perishing with honor and pride.

Damn it…

Clearly, my instincts told me I could win…

Was I wrong…

“Boom! Boom! Boom!…”

Countless dark red tendrils fell, striking against Ye Mingqiu’s Blood Spear in defense, unleashing force capable of shattering mountains, causing the spear’s shaft to fill with countless fine cracks.

Ye Mingqiu’s body was embedded in the Flesh Plain. He could feel the surrounding flesh pushing against him crazily, as if a writhing stomach trying to digest food.

“Break!”

Ye Mingqiu swung the Blood Spear. Crimson patterns erupted into dazzling brilliance in an instant, the fractured parts rapidly restored, appearing completely undamaged.

The Blood Spear sliced through the tendrils, raining down accursed blood onto the ground, yet the tendrils’ slashes healed at a rapid pace, as if completely unmoved.

“I can fight.”

Ye Mingqiu smiled.

Although Omaragon’s Remains’ Four-dimensional Attributes are all 100, its attack and speed didn’t truly reach the 100 level, and the tendrils’ strength wasn’t up to 100 Constitution, not truly four-dimensional 100.

He surmised that the entire Corruption-marked Flesh Continent is Omaragon’s Remains, too vast and grand, rendering it difficult to use full power against such a tiny enemy.

Moreover, Omaragon’s Remains is not life in essence but a dead object. All its attacks are instinctual reactions.

The one truly possessing life is the entity within the primitive Ancient God Embryo. Though sharing the same origin, they are two fundamentally different beings.

“You’ve sensed a crisis.”

“Which means.”

“I am stronger than the Ancient God nurtured within the embryo, right?”

Ye Mingqiu asked with a spirited smile, his Battle Intent soaring.
