GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1193 Suffering For Legion.

Chapter 1193 Suffering For Legion.

??Legion-5 made up his mind and said, "If I can kill and eat my mother to pursue perfection, I can surely pretend to be meek while enjoying the finest luxury in the realm of high heaven."

Then he said to the other clones with righteousness, "I am doing this for Legion. If not for Legion, I will not condone this restriction of my freedom."

"Right." They snickered. "Sure you are."

"More like you're greedy."

He ignored the biased condemnation of his willingness to sacrifice his freedom and opened the bottle. Then he took out a bead of life essence. He did so by turning the bottle a little over its cover. A small round heavy and translucent bead separated from the others and fell into the cover.

This could be done because each drop or bead of life essence is a separate entity. They are individual petals of the flowers of life trees. The fact that they are liquified doesn't mean that they have fused and mixed.

He put this drop of life essence on his skin. It was assimilated immediately. He couldn't help but sway drunkenly and fall to his back. He is conscious and he can move but it isn't easy to move. His body feels heavy and his mind feels groggy. It is as if he is in a dream.

This state didn't last long under the effect of his divine ability. The small spring of life essence within him was devoured and assimilated. He was up again in less than a minute. He can move around as good as before. He can even move faster and longer too. His body feels full of energy and stamina.

He smiled. "This reminds me of the first time Gehaldirah tasted life essence as a baby. His body and mind couldn't take it and fell asleep for over 2 months."

Legion-8 grumbled, "Yes, we get it. You are spoiled. You don't have to keep talking about it."

Legion-7 said with envy, "I wish I had life essence right now. It will go a long way in keeping me alive."

"I could get you some if we can meet somehow." Legion-5 said.

Legion-2 came to the rescue, "I will plan a route for you Legion-7. But you have to get to the planar portal of the plane you are on. There's an army waiting for you every step of the way though. It is not going to be easy."

They spent a while advising Legion-7 who is in a very dangerous situation right now with the whole plane working against him and the universe rejecting his existence.

The universe wants to kill him and the Will of the plane he is in wants to kill him early just to make sure nothing could go wrong. Soverick is using his eyes to see through the plane and then provide information to Legion-7 to help him navigate the plane.

Legion-5 returned to his life of luxury after advising Legion-7. His divine ability may be a weak copy of Ragnarok's divine ability but it granted him the potential for limitless growth. That means he doesn't have a limit on his stats. He can keep growing as long as he has something good to eat and as long as his existence is not in danger of collapsing from eating something dangerous.

This continued for 10 years until he wasn't growing anymore. He was losing life force just as fast as he was gaining it. His body has surpassed the equilibrium of atmospheric mana. Mana cannot support his existence anymore.

This is because he is a mana entity who usually relies on mana to provide vitality for him. He has too much vitality in his body now so he is losing it to the environment. He won't be able to keep his vitality if he doesn't bind it with something to his existence or gain perfect control of his body.

Another side effect is that he has become a fat giant. His head, torso, and limbs have become so fat that his whole body looks like that of a slime. Even the increase in his height has only made him look like a colossal slime. He is over 5 meters tall now and he looks terrifying. But for a different reason other than his height.

He was already ugly when his body had definite shape and form. Now he looks like a very ugly slime. He is even as slow as a slime in movement. His body is very strong but he can't control the excess strength. It has instead become a burden for him.

"I guess there is such a thing as too much of life essence." He muttered groggily.

"It is time to break through."

Others will take this process seriously. They will meditate to prepare their minds. They will go through the process with trepidation and utter caution. But not him.

He did it as if he were strolling through a garden. He was completely frivolous about it. His divine sense locked onto his body easily. Then he used his body as an anchor to pull out his soul. He draped his soul over his body and fused them together without any issue.

His body began to shrink after he succeeded. He became 3 meters tall and humanoid again.

"I am no longer a fat slime. That is good." He said as he checked out his body. "I still look like a slime but I am humanoid now."

His form is translucent now. That's why he looks like a humanoid slime. It is as if his flesh is made from slime material. It has honestly made him more handsome as a Supreme beasts.

Supreme beasts are usually creepy-looking. He has the same physical features as them, in that he doesn't have any mouth or lips anymore, he doesn't have nostrils, eyes, or ears. But he is also translucent so he looks like a featureless crystal statue instead of a creepy incomplete doll.

Then again, he is very strong so it wouldn't have mattered if he were creepy. No livestock is bold enough to mock him for how he looks.
