Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 493

Chapter 493 Learning True Void

It washed over the area like a deep sea.

Cracks began to appear on the land, and the wall guardian dragons fell a sharp pain in their eyes.

Just looking at the sword made them wince, and bleed from the eyes.

Neo used the opening while the dragons were surprised, and attacked ferociously.

He only stopped after reaching 100% in Voidfang Rain, and Space Lock.

The wall guardian dragons had slight cracks running over their scales, and the Nyxtharion #69 had lost one of its wing.

Neo, on the other hand, was breathing heavily.

He looked pristine. All of his injuries had healed, thanks to the expectational regeneration he received from devouring the Sovereign of Three Thousand Shadows.

Suddenly, the ground shook.

A new wall guardian dragon entered the cave, bigger than the others.

Neo squinted. This one was different.

Half its face pulsed with deformed flesh, twisting and bulging like it was alive.

One of its eye glowed red, the other was sunken and dark.

Its scales peeled off in patches, revealing raw, shifting skin underneath.

"Who's that?" whispered Neo.

"The Great I am numbered #2," rumbled the dragon, its voice deep and rough.

"You look… different."

"The body of Great I changed from Void," replied Nyxtharion #2. "Now, let's start your training."

"You said we'd move to True Void. What is it, really?"

"Void can do two things. First, it brings things back to null—a state before they existed. This wipes them out clean. Not many use it this way. Most use Void for the second thing: Corruption," explained Nyxtharion #2.

"Corruption?" asked Neo.

"Yes. Void corrupts. But corruption is just uncontrolled evolution. It pushes things to change fast, hoping it would evolve incorrectly and die out," answered Nyxtharion #2.

Neo frowned, thinking.

He'd seen Void twist things, break them apart.

"Evolution? Like growing?"

"Kind of. Outer Gods used Void to make their own energy types. Your energy is plain, non-elemental. You can turn it into shadow energy or death energy. Those are energy types," clarified Nyxtharion #2.

"You mean the 108 Elementals?" wondered Neo.

"Yes, they are 108 basic energy types. Each matches one element. Those elements come from Elemental Supremes—old, powerful beings that rule Beyond," replied Nyxtharion #28.

"And Void Gods?"

"Void Gods can create new energy types. That should be impossible, theoretically. It makes them stronger than regular Gods. That's why they're called Outer Gods—Gods Beyond.

"But it's dangerous. Hard to control. When you try to make a new energy type, you might corrupt yourself," cautioned Nyxtharion #2.

"Corrupt myself? How?" questioned Neo.

"There's two kinds. Body corruption is bad, but normal. You'd look like a monster—like me. That's it. Soul corruption is worse," answered Nyxtharion #2.

Neo glanced at the dragon's deformed face.

Neo's hand tightened on Obitus, the Formless Sword still humming from the fight. _{frёewebnoѵēl.com}
