Chapter 1363 - Incarnation 1 (1/2)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Burning heat, chilling cold, powerful poison, numbing itchiness, and lightning. Different types of Dragon Breath energy crashed into Garen’s body hard with a huge momentum.
Along with the Dragon Breath, the White Dragon King, Tiamat’s Incarnation, pounced mercilessly, pressing down on Garen and trying to use his immense power to suppress him.
The dragon scales all over Garen’s body began to melt, but he paid them no heed. He rushed straight through the Dragon Breath, taking it head-on, and all the powerful Five-colored Dragon Breath could do was force him to close his eyes, lest they were burned.
He also had a Divine Persona now, so his resistance to Divine Power attacks had risen again. Besides, his Vitality was also much stronger now than it had been before, and the stacking of these effects had finally triggered a fundamental change. The damage the Five-colored Dragon Breath did to him was almost negligible.
“Imprisonment Spell.” Tiamat’s voice gave a screech, and suddenly a pitch-black cage enveloped Garen, who was still rushing forward. It became a black square cage.
He opened his mouth wide and bit at the cage.
Bam!!
The cage instantly shattered, and a giant dragon’s tail from within whipped Tiamat’s face hard. It sounded like a bolt of dull thunder, the giant impact creating faint space ripples in the air.
“Dragon Race Control!” Tiamat was forced to stagger by that whip, and there was instantly a large flash of golden light from his body. The Level Nine Holy Spell was cast almost instantaneously and released directly.
At his level, all Holy Spells were practically as fast as a change of his will. The only thing was that there was a limit to how many casts he had daily.
Unfortunately, while the Level Nine Dragon Race Control was a Holy Spell unique to him as the Dragon God, it still had barely any effect on Garen, whose Vitality was terrifyingly high.
He had been immune to Level Nine Spells a long time ago. It went without saying that they would not work on him now.
The misty glow formed by that golden light landed on Garen’s body and then vanished without a trace, having no effect whatsoever.
“Pollution Meteor…” Before Tiamat could finish saying the name of the spell, Garen instantly appeared before him, crashing his claws into his chest with a bam.
Bong!
Tiamat took several steps back, and his spell was also interrupted. He shook his head but was not injured at all.
A thin golden membrane had blocked off Garen’s attack, rendering Tiamat completely unharmed.
“The Divine Power Shield?” Garen raised an eyebrow and activated all of his 260-point Speed.
Swoosh!
He instantly appeared behind Tiamat’s back and whipped down hard with his tail.
The attributes of Tiamat’s Incarnation were also clearly over two hundred. He turned around immediately with decent reflexes, and four other dragon heads appeared beside his, all biting at Garen harshly.
Psst!
Garen suddenly felt an intense pain in his tail, and he moved aside, instantly and hurriedly.
Only then did he realize that his opponent had taken a small bite out of his tail. His heart turned cold, but before he could react, Tiamat moved instantaneously beside him as well, biting down hard once more.
“Since the Holy Spells don’t work on you, I’ll just use my sharpest teeth to swallow you directly!” Tiamat said, screeching with laughter.
The two giant White Dragons had practically become two balls of shadows, moving and wrestling at high speeds on the plains. Occasionally they would fly into the air, or crash down hard into the ground. Anything that would touch them now and then would instantly explode into dust, just like an illusion.
Garen could move instantaneously because of his high speed and agility, and Tiamat could perform instantaneous movements too, but he was one step faster than Garen in terms of reflexes. This was the difference in their Agility attribute.
As an Incarnation of God, only then did Garen get a deep understanding of why only Incarnations could fight Incarnations most of the time. The strength of the True Soul and God Levels lay in their bodies that had been powered up to the limit over an infinitely long period of time. Just this one Incarnation had more than two hundred points in Speed and Strength. Add that to the solid Divine Power Shield that was extremely hard to pierce through, and this was practically a fearsome, indestructible war fortress.
But the difference between them and the True Souls was that the Gods’ own increases in attributes were based on the Divine Power enveloping their bodies, whereas the True Soul Demon Lords simply relied on their own bodies.
“As I expected, you really are a Void Creature!” Tiamat sped up, chasing after Garen and laughing coldly.
“Saber of Domination!!”
Suddenly, an expanding ball of darkness exploded before him and enveloped Garen in an instant.
The giant black saber within the ball slashed at Garen soundlessly, its blade carrying a faint layer of a purple glow.
It was as though the giant saber instantly became enormous before Garen’s eyes, smashing down on him like a mountain range. It was so powerful that even Garen, with more than 260 points in Strength, felt suffocated and unable to fight back.
“Divine Persona Evolution!” Garen was shocked. Tiamat’s Persona had domination in its definition, and this ability was clearly his using the Divine Persona to mobilize the most Divine Power he could.
When he was going through Ann’s books, he had read somewhere that the Divine Persona represented Authority, and this Authority was the embodiment of the rules. Going against the Authority was going against the rules, and this was not something normal power could resist. Only Authority could resist Authority.
“Corrode!!” he roared deeply, his entire body emanating with large clouds of purple-black fog. That wheel of black light appeared behind his head directly.
The purple-black fog came into contact with the black saber head-on, and instantly, the black fog fell apart and scattered. It was because the difference between their Authorities was too large.
Disregarding the Black Fog completely, the black saber slashed onto Garen’s body mercilessly.
Rawr!!!
Amidst the howl of pain, a deep cut appeared on Garen’s body. The black saber disintegrated, and the black fog enveloping him dissipated completely as well.
“What a powerful body you have, to think you went straight up against my authority and still managed to survive!!” Smiling evilly, Tiamat began to condense the black ball of Authority once more. “How about another go, then?”
“Poisonous Eye!”
