Odyssey of the Blind God



The Infernal Ancients and Asura Mecyrs were the strongest.

They controlled two Gigalorian Galaxies respectfully and possessed the power to turn the Galaxies upside down. 

Each of their members is bound to ascend godhood as long as they survive long enough. That was how high their racial talent was.

Nial was currently surrounded by a bunch of these Infernal Ancients and Asura Mecyrs. 

They watched him vigilantly while slowly moving around him. 

'Is that how they greet me? Couldn't they have greeted me somewhere else but in the middle of nowhere?' Nial thought light-heartedly.

He didn't think too much about their actions. After all, Nial heard that the Infernal Ancients and Asura Mecyrs wouldn't hesitate to rip apart whoever dared to enter the Gigalorian Galaxies.

That way, they avoided bothersome people from considering entering their territory. 

Their tactic worked pretty well because only five people dared to enter the Gigalorian Galaxies before they had been killed mercilessly.

Even Primordials and Ancients had no chance once hundreds of powerhouses attacked them individually.

Other than the five Gods who died pitifully, a few Devils survived entering the Gigalorian Galaxies. The Army of Devils and the four Gigalorian Galaxies were old friends, if one wanted to put it as such. 

They had the same master and worked together on more than one occasion. 

Despite that, the Devils surrounding Nial protectively right now were glared at, and restricted.

'I should have brought more Devils with me.' NIal lamented, hiding a small smile beneath his poker face.

He visualized the Infernal Ancients and Asura Mecyrs in detail before he took note that their reinforcement arrived as well. However, this time, there were no Infernal Ancients or Asura Mecyrs. 

The reinforcement was a wild bunch of all kinds of Gods. But while they were a wild bunch of Gods, they didn't seem weak. Nial didn't take long to understand that their cultivation degree was roughly the same as his.

They were not yet Ancient Gods but it wouldn't take much to take the final step. 

'Why would they call reinforcement weaker than their original combat power?' 

The Infernal Ancients and Asura Mecyrs levitating around him were as powerful as his Infernal Devils and the Divine Gods outside. So why would they call reinforcement like that?

Nial calmly observed the situation, and it didn't take too long before he came to a realization.

His poker face crumbled as the corners of his lips curled upward.

"So it's like that," He mumbled, barely loud enough to be heard by the people around him.

As his voice rang out, Nial issued a mental command to his Devils.

The Devils didn't know what their master planned but they complied and heed their master's command at once.

They unleashed their full power and shot in all directions, pinning down the Infernal Ancients and Asura Mecyrs.

His Devils were at a numerical advantage but their combat power was considerably weaker than their opponents. However, that was expected because Nial left behind most Infernal Devils to protect the Orion Shelter.

But that was fine. Nial didn't want his Devils to kill the Infernal Ancients and Asura Mecyrs. All he needed was to make sure that the Devils would stall for some time.

Nial, on the other hand, had already vanished from his earlier position.

He exerted Grasp of Eclipse and reappeared in the midst of the other's reinforcement.

The wild bunch of reinforcement numbered barely a dozen. Each of them was roughly at the same cultivation rank as Nial, which was too much of a coincidence to be one.

He released his reinforced dark energy explosively, shrouding everyone in a sphere of darkness. Until his opponents dispersed the darkness, their senses would deteriorate drastically. After all, Nial had used a considerable amount of reinforced dark energy to release the dark mist of the Hodur's Heir Curse as well!

Nial put little to no focus on maintaining the shape of the thick reinforced dark mist sphere. He was more focused on the condition of the dozen pseudo-Ancient Gods. 

'Their sight is fully blocked, and their other senses should have been weakened by more than a quarter. That's good enough.'

Even though he had ascended godhood, Nial was not really in possession of a powerful attack-type Cursed Divine ability. Devour allowed him to devour the corpses of his opponents, and various other things, while the Heart of Gluttony would digest everything devoured, turning it into energy to progress in the ranks and to provide the God of Gluttony with more energy to fight.

Nial's only advantage in a fight was that he had a near-unlimited amount of dark energy at his disposal. 

That was something he had to make use of. After all, his opponents were in possession of Divine abilities and Cursed Divine abilities. There were also the special traits of their Divinities. 

Thus, he had to test out how useful his near-unlimited amount of reinforced dark energy would work against opponents on the same level as him.

Once the sphere swallowed all of them, Nial summoned Goldy's armor by fusing it with the True Golden Dragon. At the same time, he unleashed crimson chaos evenly from within his body. The crimson chaos merged with the golden scales, further enhancing Nial's physical strength.

However, that was not everything.

Nial was not done yet!

He initiated a partial fusion with Psy and unleashed the full power of the Dominion ability.

"Freeze!"

His voice, enhanced by Psy's special trait, rang through the sphere like a thunderbolt. The dozen pseudo Ancient Gods froze in their tracks, even halting the circulation of their cultivation energy for a second or two. 

That was more than enough for Nial to approach the first pseudo-Ancient God and snap his neck - if he wanted to. Nial's hands were covered in the True Golden Dragon's scales. They were close to indestructible, and strong enough to protect Nial under most circumstances.

Meanwhile, they were also great means to knock out his opponents. A full-power cut to his opponent's neck, or a heavy blow against his opponent's temples, was more than enough to make them dizzy or knock them out at once.

Nial used his full might to deprive the consciousness of his first opponent before he disappeared once again. Within the darkness sphere, his energy was fully concealed. He didn't issue any noises either, and he could teleport anywhere using the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique.

Thus, even before the pseudo-Ancient Gods could think of a way to counter Nial, they had either been knocked out, or rendered incapable to continue fighting.

'Their actual combat experience seems to be somewhat restricted.' Nial thought, a little disappointed in the actual combat prowess of the Gods in the Gigalorian Galaxies.

He could tell that the Infernal Ancients and Asura Mecyrs were much stronger because they could easily fight head-on against his Devils, but that was already it.

The wild bunch of pseudo-Ancient Gods hadn't been that great.

But what was the reason? Did he overwhelm them? Take them by surprise? 

If that was everything, Nial would be able to kill all Ancient Gods across the Universe with a dirty trick such as the one he had used to distract the Infernal Ancients and Asura Mecyrs and the wild bunch of pseudo-Ancient Gods.

Unfortunately, that wouldn't work in reality.

What did that mean?

Were the Gods of the four Gigalorian Galaxies just weak? That shouldn't be it!

'Maybe they never encountered someone like me? The versatility of their opponents should be rather restricted by being bound to the Gigalorian Galaxies for eons. Is that it? In that case, they need to acquire more experience in the next few months, otherwise, they will die fighting the rest of the Universe.'

Nial releases whips of darkness out of his fingers to gather the unconscious pseudo-Ancient Gods. He did so subconsciously to make sure that none of them would be lost in space. After all, that would be quite problematic.

Meanwhile, he entered a deep thought, trying to figure out how to make use of the Gigalorian Galaxies' Gods without sacrificing them.

He wanted to achieve his goal, but not by sacrificing his people.
