A Core Ship From The Start
Chapter 1055 - Chapter 1055 Chapter 726 Great Harvest (The Starry Sky is

Chapter 1055: Chapter 726: Great Harvest (The Starry Sky is Quite Fun) Chapter 1055: Chapter 726: Great Harvest (The Starry Sky is Quite Fun) The melee was but a moment, and then the battlefield immediately became incomparably brutal.

Duanmu Huai raised the War Hammer and strode forward. On the opposing side, the once-hero also raised his Geass Silver Sword, which instantly split into several fragments that flew towards Duanmu Huai, forming a swirling storm of sharp blades enveloping him.

“Useless, die!”

Duanmu Huai didn’t care about the attack at all, he just kept moving forward, allowing the flying silver blade fragments to leave cracks on his Armor. All the while, his body sparked with fire as he rushed forward and slammed his hammer down on the enemy!

“Hmph!”

Seeing Duanmu Huai’s attack, the man’s expression darkened, and in the next moment, his Geass Silver Sword returned to its original shape and met the descending War Hammer.

“————–!”

The War Hammer struck the blade, and the powerful impact of Divine Power immediately blew away everything around them. Duanmu Huai stood firm, pushing forward with both hands, while the man’s expression drastically changed, and he hurriedly stepped back. However, he was a step too late; Duanmu Huai’s hammer slammed down, sending the man flying backward. Duanmu Huai, relentless, flung his War Hammer at the man, who continued to retreat as the Thundering Hammer followed like a missile.

“Whoo!”

Witnessing the War Hammer flying towards him, the man clenched his teeth. He had never imagined that he would be so easily overpowered; even in the realm of the Shinigami, facing Kelanwo, he had some strength to fight, but now, facing this strange, stout man, he felt his own strength was so fragile and easily broken!

How could this be?

It’s no wonder this poor fellow couldn’t imagine it; if it were before, Duanmu Huai might have struggled somewhat against him, but after returning, Duanmu Huai’s “God of Destruction” had escalated to level 20, Max Level, granting him immense Divine Power. Not discussing the devoted believers but purely in terms of strength, Duanmu Huai was on the same level as Suren Charte, perhaps even higher.

Compared to that, Myrkul, though he was indeed the former Shinigami, was only the predecessor, and his strength came from followers; the current Shinigami was Kelanwo, and those who worshipped Myrkul were dwindled down to barely a couple of Xiao Mao, which was one reason Myrkul was being devoured–after all, he was truly weakened now.

If the man could devour tens of thousands of souls and refine them well, maybe he could compete with Duanmu Huai but not for now…

“Get lost!”

The man could no longer continue to resist; he couldn’t believe that in this world, there existed another with Divine Power as mighty as his own that could freely traverse the main plane. But now, with no choice left, he roared and with a firm grip on his Geass Silver Sword, he swung it powerfully at the incoming Thunder Hammer.

“Bang!!!”

With a loud crash, the Thunder Hammer was struck down to the ground by the man using all his strength. However, the poor man hadn’t even caught his breath when he saw Duanmu Huai’s ferocious face appear right before him.

“This is the end, pretty boy!”

Duanmu Huai roared and clenched his right hand into a fist, punching directly into the man’s abdomen, immediately bending his body like a shrimp. This sudden strike also caused the man’s eyes to bulge, like a fish out of water, gasping. His wearing of the Black Armor, though not an ordinary one, capable of withstanding most attacks.

However… Armor could ensure he wasn’t injured, but it couldn’t ensure he wasn’t impacted, could it?

“ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA!!!”

Duanmu Huai clenched both fists and, like a raging storm, hammered away at the man before him, who unfortunately appeared completely unskilled in hand-to-hand combat, getting hit mid-air directly by Duanmu Huai. Duanmu Huai clenched his fists tightly, pounding on the man’s chest, lower abdomen, and face to make “thud thud thud” dull sounds, as the man grit his teeth trying to withstand but Duanmu Huai gave no chance to breathe, roaring and punching wildly, wave after wave of assaults quickly demolishing the man’s fragile defense.

Finally, it came to the last moment.

“ORA————–!!!”

Along with Duanmu Huai’s loud yell, he punched out with his right hand, this time the man’s armor could no longer withstand Duanmu Huai’s Iron Fist, shattering at the impact, and Duanmu Huai’s right hand penetrated straight through the man’s body!

“………”

The man’s eyes widened in surprise, unbelieving of the scene before him, unable to comprehend why he had failed. Who exactly was this guy?

“You, you can’t destroy me…”

“No, I can.”

Duanmu Huai’s right fist had pierced through the man’s chest, and now in his hand, he held the man’s bloody, still-beating heart, as if it was making a final flicker.

“Die———-!!”

However, the man evidently wasn’t ready to let it go; he roared, and once more a large mouth formed from shadows reappeared behind him, suddenly opening wide, turning into a gaping maw aiming to bite down on Duanmu Huai!

Just by devouring your soul, the ultimate victory would still be mine!

At this moment, the man was internally delighted, certain that the opponent didn’t possess his immense strength; once caught by his devoring force, that guy would be definitely doomed!

However, what happened next took the man by complete surprise.

Just as the giant shadowy maw bit down towards Duanmu Huai, suddenly, Duanmu Huai’s head split, his skin, muscles, and bones instantly began to dissolve, twist and deform, and in the blink of an eye, Duanmu Huai’s head transformed into several sticky, slick tentacles, effortlessly evading the man’s hungry devouring. Then, these tentacles extended forward, tightly wrapping around the man’s head.

“How can this… be possible…”

Seeing this scene, the man was completely stunned.

Is this a Spirit Absorbing Monster?

But Spirit Absorbing Monsters don’t look like this, do they?

“What exactly are you …?”

Duanmu Huai did not answer the man’s question, or rather, he no longer had a mouth with which to answer. Several sticky, slippery tentacles tightly coiled around the man’s head and suddenly contracted. In the next moment, the man’s head burst like a watermelon bound by hundreds of rubber bands, while simultaneously, Duanmu Huai’s right hand clenched tightly, crushing his heart.

“————–!!”

Immediately afterward, Black Flame soared into the sky, completely devouring the man’s body. In the next instant, the Black Flame violently exploded, and countless souls tried to flee from the man’s body, but they were immediately destroyed by the sweeping Black Flame.

“Sigh…”

It was then that the tentacles retracted again, reforming Duanmu Huai’s head, and Duanmu Huai shook his head and sighed.

“This move is pretty useful, attacking when least expected … Ah, I wanted to imitate the Alien, but unfortunately, you are a man …”

While speaking, Duanmu Huai grimaced. After becoming an Old God, Duanmu Huai had gained the ability to transform any part of his body into tentacles, meaning he could also open his mouth like an Alien when his opponent approached, and have a tongue that turned into a tentacle shoot out, penetrating the opponent’s forehead just like the Alien’s tongue.

Of course, Duanmu Huai generally wouldn’t use this move. Firstly, because the move was quite disgusting, even though it turned into a tentacle, it was still his own tongue, essentially the same as poking someone with his own tongue.

Of course, it would be okay if it were a woman, but if it were a man … ugh.

Duanmu Huai felt like vomiting.

That’s why, while dodging this guy’s attack, Duanmu Huai chose to disintegrate the entire head, which was essentially the same as bumping his own head into the man’s–this was still acceptable.

Much better than using his tongue to poke.

Dealing with this guy was not hard, but what came next …!

“Ship out quickly, ship out quickly!”

Looking at the system information panel in front of him, Duanmu Huai was silently muttering. The guy was dead, but he definitely wanted to keep his ability to devour souls and create Untouchables! Right now, the Black Flame was destroying his body and soul, and now Duanmu Huai was watching to see if this guy would be useful, to see if he had a Divine Position.

If this guy already possessed a Divine Position, then Duanmu Huai could, like a traditional Faelun God, kill him and then take his Divine Position.

If this guy was just a weakling–then it was as if Duanmu Huai had been busy for nothing.

Luckily, effort paid off.

[Detected ‘God of Devouring’ Divine Position, would you like to destroy it?]

“No!”

Seeing this, Duanmu Huai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Preserve!”

[Divine Position ‘God of Devouring’ has been preserved]

[God of Devouring: Ability to devour the souls of others, the devoured will become the devourer’s loyal puppets and followers (not yet evolved)]

[Would you like to inherit the Divine Position?]

“Do not inherit, preserve.”

Duanmu Huai shook his head. Although he was quite tempted by this Divine Position, he was aware of the dangers. This Divine Position was not a good thing, and besides, the previous owner had mentioned, after gaining this power, he developed a hunger for souls akin to a vampire’s thirst for blood, needing to devour souls constantly. Duanmu Huai would not be foolish enough to let himself be controlled by such a thing.

Of course, Duanmu Huai didn’t plan on just keeping this Divine Position as a collector’s item. He wanted to find someone to forge it into a Divine Artifact so that not only could he use the power of the God of Devouring to create Untouchables, but also avoid being cursed by this power himself.

Hmm …?

Shouldn’t this thing be called Frost Mourne?

After all, it’s always hungry?

… we’ll see.

These thoughts passed through Duanmu Huai’s mind, and then he collected the remains in his hand, afterwards raising his head to look around. The shadows formed by the Untouchables Guard had all turned into ash, which was normal, since they were created from the souls devoured by the man, and now that the man was dead, the souls accumulated inside him were mercilessly eradicated by Duanmu Huai’s Black Flame, naturally causing these shadow guards to crumble like puppets with cut strings.

As for the Geassian Yankees, they were nowhere to be seen now, probably having been decimated by Tione in a disorganized and frantic retreat.

But that was not a problem, Duanmu Huai had his ways of finding them.

With that thought, Duanmu Huai reached out to pick up the Geass Silver Sword that had fallen on the ground, giving a cold smile.

What a grand harvest this time.
