Bro, I'm not an Undead!

Chapter 1283: [Legion Eyes]!

As was usually the drill with experts and powers rivalling or reaching the Divine boundary, everything happened before the count of a nanosecond.

The barely revealed, slanted eyes above Skullius\' blind pair were as menacing as they were powerful. Their whites were overshadowed by the mixture of green and gold expelled from their thick irises, creating light flares so bright they made making direct eye contact with them nigh impossible.

But none among those present would have dared or conjured the means to lock eyes with the Hybrid Warmoth anyway.

Everything that the [Legion Eyes], a First Sage Tier Andori, and Skullius\' second strongest technique in this form, looked at, was distorted.

It started with Aigas itself.

The rising mounds of rock, nearby greenery, river, and the gloomy sky with all its pale clouds and splendour were eaten away as if by a tide of blue mist. Everything before the green and gold eyes was torn down from its perfect state. The mountains, trees, modest grasses and skies beyond were reduced to strands of bright Rules connecting in taut tangles in a pitch- black void!

Their barest forms of existence, their blueprints, were revealed, and even the Rules themselves which connected to form everything on Aigas seemed to spill secrets of their own in the form of tiny sparks of different colours that vanished once split off from the Rule strands.

As terrifying as this seemed, what became of the one hundred and thirty-eight Cavern was even more morbid, not to mention swift.

All of them didn\'t even get a change to understand what had happened to them.

Their skins were stripped from their bodies, as was their flesh, bones and innards. Their souls were then revealed, pristine and ghost-like, contrasted morbidly against the darkness around them with strands of Rules, but they hardly lasted longer than miniscule fractions of a breath. These souls were smitten by an unseen, raging pulse from the [Legion Eyes] and shredded to extinction.

It was utter destruction, horrifying yet merciful.

And indeed, this was the prowess of the [Legion Eyes].

Unlike the [Heart of Revelation], which it was modelled with, the [Legion Eyes] could strip away every obstacle over a target to reveal their most vulnerable states. On living targets, flesh, skin or bone could be stripped away temporarily or permanently destroyed as Skullius willed.

The unguarded, vulnerable state that was left behind thereafter, would also be crushed by a pulse of what could only be described as continuous visual damage, which did not stop as long as the [Legion Eyes] were closed. As such, in theory, as long as those eyes remained open, they could defeat anything.

This Andori could also show Skullius everything he was looking at in 64 different states.

At the moment, a dark void with Rules stood before his eyes, visible to onlookers as well, but to him, several other things, hidden away by Deific powers registered.

Skullius grinned.

In the miniscule fragment of time his [Legion Eyes] were open, he locked sights with the radiant figure of Suzamete\'s soul, locked away in a sanctum hard to reach for most beings.

A knowing look was shared between the two, and then the [Legion Eyes] closed. The world returned to normal in a blink.

Nothing remained of the Cavern that had been diving towards Skullius. It was as though they had never existed. However, they did leave small parting gifts.

[You have killed Third Circle Cavern, Giyusham. 77 Null Life Essence awarded]

[You have killed Fourth Circle Cavern, Pamar. 70 Null Life Essence awarded]

[You have killed Third Circle Cavern...]

Skullius sighed.

He no longer cultivated cumulative mana experience, and thus, all that was left for him was Null Life Essence he extracted automatically with a kill. This trend he had begun ever since he obtained the Amalgam form back then.

\'I almost miss the old levelling system,\' Skullius thought.

"Neat. Just as horrifying as I imagined, I suppose," Elita said to him. This was meant to be a compliment, apparently.

She could have sworn that if she blinked just now, she wouldn\'t have caught even the littlest glimpse she did as to what had happened to all the Cavern diving towards them.

Skullius chuckled and then his senses focused on the remaining enemies - the main dish.

Six Cavern had split from the whole the instant they had sensed Skullius\' Amras. They were the Divine level Cavern that had sensed his probing moments ago and headed in his direction immediately with the now-deceased small army.

They stood at six different points around Skullius and Elita, dozens of meters away.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

They all had dark and rough bodies, but their sizes differed.

Two were almost six meters tall, while the rest were no shorter than three. They had distorted, fierce visages, and crowns of large horns that twisted or curled. One even had a tail.

The largest, and most powerful-looking of them wielded two great, red sabres that were burning with a dark flame. His five eyes had yellow pupils that locked onto Skullius, unwavering. Skullius appraised this great Cavern at once.

[Name: Agrovineish]

[Ascension Status: Broader Existence Phase 1]

[AKH: 7/1,000]

[Race: Cavern]

[Circle: Fifth]

The Cavern as a race rank themselves in Circles. These Circles are indicators of evolution, and they function like the Stages for humanoids in Aigas. The Fifth Circle is the second highest Circle reserved only for beginner Divines.

[Inv. Status: Extremely wary of you]

[+Stats+]

[Aggressive Dark Flame Engine (World Stratum 1):-]

This Immortal World Physique enhances the user\'s body and whatever they use as tools or weapons using a black flame as a conduit. This flame invigorates the user\'s flesh and blood, granting augments to their general physical attributes, most of which match those of the beings of Aigas except {Gift Augment}, which relates to the innate ability of a Cavern. This Immortal Physique also guards the user\'s Broader Existence to a miniscule degree.

[Strength: Two fold]

[Endurance: Ten fold]

[Agility: Seven fold]

[Intelligence: ---]

[Health: Nine fold]

[Luck: Two fold]

[Gift Augment: Sixfold]

[Exora Amras (Beginner World Affluent): 10,890/15,900]

[+Andori+]

None

Skullius was intrigued. Having this Patronage Rank 3 guidance field was convenient. It added notes to everything he wasn\'t familiar with even to the details of others he appraised. Elita, who had the same, appraised the other Cavern as well.

\'Hmm. When it comes to Ascension Status, we are the same, but I have the upper hand in

Physique, Exora Amras... and Andori as well. Hmm, he seems to have a Parlous Nature, though, I\'m superior in that regard too,\' Skullius thought, and the [Entropy\'s Harmonising

Nimbus] churned.

The Cavern prepared to attack, and he (Skullius) grinned.

It was time to have a proper taste of what Divine battle felt like!
