The Era of Gods Chapter 330 – Metamorphosis and Sublimation

Chapter 330: Chapter 330 Metamorphosis and Sublimation

This means that the Power of Faith he gains every day will significantly increase, and the Lesser Naga, once considered by him to be dispensable and somewhat redundant, has suddenly become a critical link in his chain of faith.

It’s not just that the Lesser Naga and the Supreme Naga now have a more closely connected evolution chain, but with the Lesser Naga’s undiminished reproductive capability, it’s very easy to breed a considerable number.

In the past, with the emergence of the Big Nagas and the Wise Goblins, the Small Fishman’s status in the Divine Realm was somewhat awkward, and he had always suppressed their reproduction rate.

Not anymore.

At this moment, the Lesser Naga, upon reaching adulthood, possess combat power of a Level 4 upper grade, which is already comparable to many mid-level species. They are no longer cannon fodder but can now serve as a core fighting force.

Well, to be precise, it’s still the status of cannon fodder, but with the combat power of a core force, their practicality has skyrocketed.

Besides that, the upgraded Lesser Naga’s spiritual power is much stronger than that of the Small Fishman era. Now, under normal circumstances, they can already use any extraordinary ability on the Extraordinary Magic Network twice, other than summoning Water Element.

If you add the three-hundred percent spiritual power boost from the Shields of the Lost Truth, they could barely use the extraordinary ability to summon Water Element.

However, it’s just barely. Once summoned, they would lose their combat power due to the exhaustion of spiritual power and would not be able to maintain it after an hour, so it is still not very practical.

But aside from the strengthened summoning of Water Element, there are no restrictions on the use of other weakened extraordinary abilities, which can be used up to five times in one go.

Two hours later, all Lesser Nagas had evolved completely, without a single failure.

Lin Xiao withdrew his gaze and prepared to move on to the next step of preparation. He looked at the Mother nest of flesh and blood and eight offspring inside the Creation Rubik’s Cube. There was bound to be a brutal War ahead, with massive casualties, and this thing seemed like it could be useful.

While he was busily preparing, elsewhere in his Divine Realm a certain void began to show instability; a part of two Divine Realms was in touch here, causing the space to twist and compress.

On the other side of that twisted space, a colossal vortex was slowly becoming clear. Outside the vortex formed by the dark Nightmare Power, a vast Nightmare Army was gathering.

Bernie and the incarnations of two other Children of Nightmare stood before the vortex, watching the twisted space. Although the three incarnations of the Children of Nightmare were humanoid, they still retained some features of their True Bodies, with Bernie’s clearly coming from transforming from a Giant, whereas the other two were not in humanoid form.

The three incarnations of the Children of Nightmare silently awaited the inter-dimensional connection. Suddenly, one of the Children of Nightmare frowned, revealing instability in their aura, instantly drawing the attention of the other two. Bernie, looking somewhat like a small giant, asked:

“I can sense that your aura is very unstable, what has happened in your Field?”

This Child of Nightmare wore a strange expression and waved off the concern:

“A small matter, I can handle it.”

“It had better be so.”

In a certain void of this Nightmare Realm, there were two interconnected gateways suspended side by side in mid-air, linking the Nightmare Realms of the two other Children of Nightmare and Bernie. One of those gateways was the one belonging to the Child of Nightmare who had just shown signs of instability. Within his Divine Realm…

A meatball composed of countless limbs and measuring three to four hundred meters in diameter rolled across the Earth, its massive body and weight creating a deep ravine in its wake. Several thick arms made from limbs fanned out from the meatball, propelling it forward, while the Nightmare Power surged violently around it. Many bat-like Nightmare Creatures resembling Wingmen or Harpies circled in the air, continuously hurling down spears at it.

The meatball was bristling with spears, but it seemed utterly unaffected, as if the spears were part of its body rather than being stuck into it.

In the distance, a multitude of Nightmare Creatures lingered, but at this moment, none dared to approach. The master of this Nightmare Realm was also hesitant to send underlings to continue the assault.

What was initially a meatball less than ten meters in size had swallowed countless Nightmare Creatures upon entering this Field, and instead of being exterminated, it had grown into a gigantic meatball that then furiously consumed other Nightmare Creatures around it. It grew larger and larger until it became uncontrollable, transforming into a massive beast with a diameter of three to four hundred meters. The forces within the Field were completely powerless against it.

Well, it’s not that they were utterly powerless, but the main forces and the powerful ones had already been deployed away, and the remaining strongest beings were helpless against this monster.

This entity seemed to possess an invincible body, and no form of physical attack not only failed to harm it but were absorbed and ingested. Besides the devoured Nightmare Creatures, a significant number of the field’s rare war machines had been sucked into the enormous flesh ball.

Even when the Child of Nightmare, Gould, personally intervened, he only managed to shatter part of the body, which still showed signs of life and the will to split. Previously, a moment of negligence almost led to a catastrophe.

Now, he did not dare to directly shatter its body anymore. But without his personal intervention, the remaining forces in the Realm were at a loss against this thing.

Gould didn’t want to inform his two companions about this news—not because he didn’t dare to, but because he didn’t want to.

Because, although this thing had already become significant within his own realm, and precisely because it had become significant, it had value. With its current combat power alone, it was already comparable to legendary creatures. If he waited until this battle was over to withdraw the field power and transformed this thing into a nightmare with the power of the entire field, then carefully cultivated it, it could become a powerful trump card in the future—how could he possibly tell others about it?

For now, Gould decided to let it roam free within his realm, ordering the subordinates left behind in the realm to stay far away, planning to deal with it after helping Lord Bernie defeat that human divine realm player.

As time passed, the space at the junction of the two realms at the edge of the Main Divine Realm weakened to a certain extent, and the spatial folds and turbulence created by the conjunction of the two realms could now be clearly seen.

Lin Xiao narrowed his eyes as he gazed at the Main Divine Realm, aside from the City of Truth and the Naga City, the other clans had long since withdrawn.

At this point, the City of Truth had already become a giant city teeming with magic high towers. After the last battle, Slarda had ordered the expansion of both cities, and a large number of defensive structures began to be built, including more than sixty powerful magic high towers and lightning towers, as well as a standard mage tower that was not yet fully completed.

Ever since getting the Wizard Tower Construction Blueprint from Colonel Xie Yufei, the wise goblin mages had begun studying and constructing this Mage Tower.

Normally, it should have been completed in such a long time, but it was not fully finished mainly because the precious magic materials stored in the divine realm were insufficient. Lacking several essential precious magic materials and not having any substitutes, the construction could not continue.

However, although it was not finished, aside from this essential engineering project, all other parts had been completed. The standard Mage Tower could still be used, only with less functionality compared to a complete Mage Tower, and its power was slightly weaker.

But even if it was weaker, it was still a Mage Tower, far stronger than the magic high towers and lightning towers, and it had many functions that magic high towers did not possess.

As a renowned war weapon in the multi-dimensional universe of the Farenc world, the fame of a real Mage Tower had spread throughout the nearby Chaotic Void Sea worlds. Everyone knew how much enhancement a true Mage Tower could provide to a Grand Magician. Even Lin Xiao was a bit envious of its efficacy, thinking about constructing a slew of Mage Towers on his floating city battleship once he had sufficient resources.

Yes, his Floating City, to be precise, the Starship awarded to him by the Myriad Manifestation Crystal Wall System.

As a reward granted by great divine power, the Starship in its complete state was ten thousand meters, that is, ten kilometers long.

It contained an independent demiplane that could travel across crystal walls and planes and enter the Starworld.

It could freely change its shape, taking on the form of Void Battleships, Void Fortresses, or even super gargantuan dragons or Star Domain Giant Whales. The Floating City was also one of its possible transformations.

This thing’s main body was colossal, with an even more colossal demiplane inside with a diameter that reached hundreds of kilometers, entailing enough space to accommodate an uncountable number of armies.

However, Lin Xiao hadn’t used it because its control core— that is, the origin and will of the internal demiplane—had been reset at the time it was granted to him. He needed to install a new independent core will to regain control and activate it.

This raised a question: to create an auxiliary will capable of controlling such a large demiplane and all the arrays and functions within the ship’s body, it would require at least a demigod-level being, or stronger—the stronger, the better, since legend-level beings were not up to par.

Legend-level could at most control basic functions like flying, but to unleash all functionality, it must be at least demigod-level or above, with true gods being even better.

Moreover, it would be best if it was the soul of a magic-based powerhouse, as a strong spiritual force would enable better control.

However, Lin Xiao didn’t have any beings at the legendary level at hand; the souls of the two Nightmare legendary creatures and the Children of Nightmare he had previously slain had slipped through his grasp.

“Boom!”

With a thunderous roar that swept across the entire divine realm, the space shook, emanating from the shattered junction of the two realms and spreading in all directions. A thick plume of nightmare mist flowed from the passage, but it only spread a few hundred meters before it was suppressed by his divine realm and couldn’t spread further.

Accompanied by a long, piercing screech, the rolling black smoke burst open, and countless specks darted out. But upon closer inspection, those specks were slender human-shaped bats, skin and bones as if they were merely leather wrapped around bones.

Their bodies were skinnier than a normal human’s, with four skinny arms ending in sharp claws that glinted coldly, their speed rapid as arrows, spreading out from the space rift at the center.

“Crack!”

Thick lightning exploded at the junction between the two realms. The surging nightmare mist was blasted apart, and even more human-shaped bat monsters flew out, dense as a cloud of locusts. Beneath that swarm, a massive shadow struggled to crawl through the passageway between the two realms.

This was one creature whose size had been magnified—
