535. Transcendent (3)
Looking down at the God of Chaos I felt the power flowing from beyond the Gate of Ascension.
A person who has gone beyond ‘transcendence’ and understood ‘death’ and transformed it into itself to achieve the concept of objectivity.
I had even surpassed the boundaries of ancient godhood and had been reborn as the perfect ‘God of Transcendence and Death’.
….
step.
Expediency always comes with a price.
Even the God of Chaos has taken control of the objective realm that symbolizes ‘chaos’ over tens of thousands of years.
I achieved the objectification of the concept of divinity by partially accepting ‘omniscience’ and ‘omnipotence’ that come from the virtual state called the transcendent or ascendant.
At this moment in order to deal with the God of Chaos I had to touch something I shouldn’t have touched.
‘ah….’
That’s right.
By activating the law of precognition <Revelation> he forcibly opened the door of ascension and sought power beyond the border so he could exist as the ‘God of Transcendence and Death’.
As time passes and the activation of the Law of Transcendence <Revelation> ends he will no longer be able to exist as the ‘God of Transcendence and Death’.
That’s why.
10 minutes later. When the application of ‘false omniscience and omnipotence’ is lifted with the end of the activation of the law of precognition <Revelation> what I faced was the only inevitable ending.
It’s no different….
‘I see….’
Species.
‘me. ‘You’re dying.’
It was extinction.
***
earth.
A storm arose in various parts of the world with the energies of divinity and mana spreading.
The special barrier suddenly split around the place where the God of Chaos was standing and a runaway phenomenon occurred.
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo co!
[The God of Chaos surrenders himself to rage and roars showing his excitement without hesitation.]
[You’re so cocky───! Who do you think you dare talk about the futility of transcendence in front of? challenger!! ]
───.
Gray world. The God of Chaos ran with his body wrapped in the chaotic energy that mixed everything.
With just that the special barrier created by the law of precognition <Conquest> was torn apart like a sheet of paper one after another and shards of divinity were scattered like shards of glass.
Faster than light. As the God of Chaos raced through the gray world Han Seong-yoon also moved. The blood heavenly demon sword and the broken heavenly sword drew a sharp trajectory.
───!
feeze.
Next…
Deadlock.
━I told you to think about it carefully right? Are you coming? good night. Challenger I will tear your body and soul to pieces and chew them up.
The God of Chaos twisted his mouth and laughed like a madman in a world at the speed of light where no sound resonates.
━Look forward to it. Because you will become mine… at the last moment I will devour everything you have and ravage everything.
The God of Chaos continued his words in madness his eyes colored pure black.
━I will erase all traces of you in the universe. Whether it’s family friends or lovers. I will kill everyone who believes in you.
───.
━Despair and crash. Thus they will meet a miserable end in madness. Do you understand? You───
and.
━Don’t be picky.
Han Seong-yoon’s eyes were colored with the golden light of ‘transcendence’ and the black light of ‘death’ respectively and the power of the semi-transcendant was revealed.
━Because I am stronger than you now.
Next moment.
Chizzy───!
The ‘priestly symbol’ engraved on Han Seong-yoon’s body due to the unique abilities of the seer ‘Revelator’ shined brightly and the level of divinity and spirit increased dozens of times.
Gakkagak.
Strength versus strength.
The balance of stalemate had long since collapsed.
However despite this the God of Chaos gritted his teeth and endured attacking hundreds of times.
The long black shadows created by the divine <Chaos> accelerated in a line and Han Seong-yoon fired hundreds of sword strikes in response offsetting them with counterattacks.
no. The counter attack went beyond erasing the opponent’s attack to inflicting large and small wounds on the God of Chaos.
Which one is beneficial and which one is detrimental? The hierarchical relationship between the two was clear. The God of Chaos made a quick decision and revised his battle strategy.
The God of Chaos hid among the long shadows and once again clenched his right hand into a fist. The purpose was to induce a close-quarters brawl.
But it doesn’t reach.
[The unique skill ‘Sword Realm’ is strongly activated.]
[Seals most abilities other than the sword of opponents within a fixed radius.]
[However the user must only use a sword and the ability has a 7-day cooldown.]
━What?
The chaotic energy that the God of Chaos had enveloped his entire body disappeared at once leaving him completely defenseless.
Seongyoon Han. God of transcendence and death. He does not miss his opponent’s weaknesses. The Blood Heavenly Demon Sword and the Pacheon Sword drew an arc and sword strikes rained down.
The God of Chaos also realized that the unique skill ‘Sword Realm’ would not seal his abilities if it was a power related to the ‘sword’ and belatedly created the shape of a sword with the energy of chaos but it was already too late.
[The exclusive effect ‘Double’ of the power skill ‘Honwon Demon Sword’ is activated.]
[Consumes divine power to increase the power skill power by [10] times.]
Baekgeom Gwancheon (白劍貫天).
───!!
The God of Chaos felt his heart pierced and his concept divinity shaken by pure physical force in return for allowing a strike at the speed of light.
Furthermore I sensed the shaking of the concept of divinity due to divinity’s <death>. Han Seong-yoon’s sacred <Death> was sublimated into a power that reached the ‘objective realm’ rather than the ‘subjective realm’.
It was a forced death that brought about the end of things and phenomena.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
result.
[ ───. ]
Patter-.
The God of Chaos had a large hole near his heart and black blood made of divine power flowed out. It was proof that divinity itself was dying.
Bubbling───.
step.
The God of Chaos was also a being who achieved ‘objectification’ by transforming into ‘chaos’ itself. Those who are strong outside the standards always do things that go beyond common sense.
In an instant the God of Chaos activated his divine <Chaos> and repaired his body. The part of the concept of divinity that has been polluted and eroded by divinity <death> is cut out and regenerated.
Tdu-duk-!
The God of Chaos ripped out his heart threw it on the ground created a new heart and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
───.
and.
───!
The world turned gray once again and the God of Chaos slipped to the side in a split second.
At the same time the space and time where the God of Chaos stood was distorted cracked and then collapsed.
This is a blow of destruction that cannot be avoided even by the special barrier created by the law of perseverance <Conquest>. The special barrier that prevented the ground from splitting is broken by the sword strike leaving a huge sword mark.
━!
step.
That too was only for a moment.
God of chaos. The moment when Han Seong-yoon immediately followed next to him as if he had anticipated his evasive maneuver. A clash broke out.
―Detailed Effect (1) – When the sword area is activated the fixed location can be moved up to three times.
The unique skill ‘Sword Area’ can move the effective range of the skill up to three times. Han Seong-yoon did not forget this and took full advantage of it.
Suddenly───!
Before the God of Chaos could react Han Seong-yoon struck the next blow cutting off his left arm.
Linked attack. A one-sided attack that seals away any abilities that the opponent possesses that cannot be combined with the ‘sword’. The result was obvious.
Puhwaak───!
The God of Chaos managed to move back and avoid having his body cut to pieces but he was not in a positive state.
That’s right….
Tsutsutsu.
Because the sacred <Death> was hidden in the sword strike inflicted on the God of Chaos.
The power of existence that goes beyond ‘transcendence’ and understands ‘death’ and sublimates it into the realm of objectivity.
In an instant everything about the God of Chaos began to face ‘death’.
Some of the concept of divinity that forms the basis of divinity collapses and the body reconstructed with divine power is disturbed.
however….
Twaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…
It was a good save.
The God of Chaos successfully defended himself while suffering a fatal wound from a one-sided onslaught. Before I knew it I was holding a strange sword made of bone and muscle in my hand.
It was not something like an auxiliary tool created as a makeshift device through divine power but a terrible relic made of the bones and flesh of a living godhead.
Kaga River───!
Blood Heaven Demon Sword Pacheon Sword and Bone and Flesh Sword. Three swords filled the air with the power to create heaven and earth.
Ki-gi-gi-gi-gi-geek───!
As the swords clashed with each other the friction heat rose as if it would melt everything and then an accident occurred.
Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-!
The God of Chaos blocks Han Seong-yoon’s sword strikes three or four times with his bone and flesh sword and is pushed back. And then it stopped.
Tuk.
Han Seong-yoon stopped.
Unique skill ‘Sword Realm’. One of the detailed effects of the skill movement with a fixed radius has reached its limit as the number of uses has been exhausted.
Tsk tsk tsk—!
[The God of Chaos glares at the enemy who has become stronger in an instant and twists the corner of his mouth into a smile.]
[I guess that’s it? but. There is no limit to the power of imposing the penalty of having to fight with the ‘sword’ of the opponent and even oneself. ]
It was simple.
The maximum number of times the effective range of the unique skill ‘Sword Area’ can be changed is three.
The God of Chaos had noticed that Han Seong-yoon could no longer launch a meaningful onslaught with his unique skill ‘Sword Realm’ activated.
Crunchy! Taaaaaaaaa!
It’s not even just that.
The God of Chaos escaped from the phenomenon of erosion and disappearance of the divinity <death> by tearing out his heart in the same way as before and cutting out part of the concept of divinity that is the basis of divinity.
However despite this the God of Chaos still stood unscathed to the extent that it did not look as if any part of his divine nature had been cut out.
[The God of Chaos smiles and shrugs his shoulders.]
[ why? Did you think that everyone who suffers divine <death> should die without incident? You’re mistaken. ]
The God of Chaos continued his speech as if pointing at his heart which he had thrown on the ground.
[Did you really think I wouldn’t have any countermeasures? I have already prepared for the divine <death>. ]
Chi-ik───!
The skin at the heart boiled and the God of Chaos succeeded in repairing the loss of the heart.
[ The sacred <death> defines the ‘end’ of objects and phenomena as death and destroys everything. Ah is extinction a leap? It’s much more complicated than that. ]
Han Seong-yoon stood still and said nothing and the God of Chaos seemed to be a little excited shaking his body.
[The function of sacred <death> is precisely the erasure of existence. It loses and eliminates function and meaning. That’s what you see as ‘death’. ]
Okay.
The God of Chaos raised his hands up shrugged his shoulders and opened his mouth wide into a wide grin.
[ However the sacred <death> requires pre-heating of ‘erosion’ and ‘poisoning’ to confirm the death of the other person at the cost of erasing the very existence of objects and phenomena…. ]
Kick───!
[The God of Chaos cannot hold back and bursts into laughter.]
[That provides an opportunity to survive even if you are hit directly by the divine <Death>. ]
It was true.
Han Seong-yoon’s divine <death> was the power that caused ‘death’ that is ‘erasure of existence’ regardless of objects or phenomena.
and. To do so it was necessary for the divine power of <Death> to directly contact the other person’s life. Thus if the divine <death> invaded the other person’s life they would face death.
[The God of Chaos slowly withdraws his laughter and smiles sharply.]
[Even if divinity <death> goes beyond my concept of divinity and leads immortality to ‘death’ it is only the end if the relevant part is cut out. ]
The God of Chaos seemed somewhat amused and went forward pointing and tapping his own heart with his finger as if mocking Han Seong-yoon.
[I will not miss the gap in the sacred <Death>. Even if the concept of divinity which is the basis of divinity is contaminated it can be torn down again and again. ]
Knock-knock-knock-
[I have built up my power by tearing killing and devouring gods over and over again. My divine energy will never run out. What a stupid thing. ]
Eat.
[There are no words. Well I wasn’t expecting an answer either… so it’s okay. There is no need for both of us to talk for a long time. ]
Jump and jump.
[Okay… the entertainment is over. Even if he had become a quasi-transcendent and raised the concept of divinity to the realm of objectivity he would not have reached the same level as me. ]
The God of Chaos held his bone-and-flesh sword in his hand smiled evilly and then fiercely unleashed his murderous intent.
[There is no need to pit the divinity of a quasi-transcendent person against the status of a soul… The outcome will be determined by how completely each other’s conceptual divinity reaches the objective realm. ]
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo co!
[Look forward to it. I will devour your conceptual divinity before it completes the realm of objectivity. I will try to show my sincerity. ]
Okay.
The God of Chaos spewed out ominous divinity and soul-like energy and the divine <Chaos> energy became stronger than ever before.
[I’ll tell you. What does divinity <chaos> mean and what is the defining concept of divinity? Let me show you what I have accumulated…]
and.
───.
It was then.
Gray world.
The speed of light unfolded and Han Seong-yoon moved.
━Your tongue is long. Do you think I’m quite scary? God of chaos. …Well it wasn’t bad at least.
───.
━Because he wasted his time talking to himself I was able to find time to prepare as well.
At the same time the moment when the divine energy surrounding Han Seong-yoon’s body was colored with brilliant golden light and a strange enthusiasm was emitted.
━Have you not thought carefully about why I have the divine name ‘God of Transcendence and Death’?
Han Seong-yoon stepped forward.
━Unlike ‘death’ ‘transcendence’ is not a threat to you.
and.
━One ‘transcendence’ means going beyond limits. Going beyond existing mutual understanding and laws. So something like this is possible.
It moved.
After the unique skill ‘Sword Domain’ is activated the limit of being able to change the effective range of the effect of use up to three times is shattered.
Go beyond limits and move forward. As Han Seong-yoon took a step his unique skill ‘Sword Realm’ was activated moving together and light flashing.
───!
━Oh?
The God of Chaos belatedly saw his body being torn in half and was astonished with his eyes wide open.
Pagagak-!
━What?
It’s not even just that.
…The god of chaos tears out the heart and the divinity <Death> which was cut out along with a part of the concept divinity does not disappear but sprouts again from the body.
Something that never disappears and always stays by your side. Because that is death. The god of chaos was unable to escape from divine <death>.
━I came this far by always overcoming my limits.
That means only one thing.
━It’s the same this time too.
The realm of objectivity.
━From now on I will continue to overcome my limits and become stronger.
The divinity <transcendence> and the divinity <death> which are the basis of divinity are objectified breaking existing limitations and gaining new power.
━Until you reach the realm of true transcendence not quasi-transcendent.
That’s also huge.
