"Fusion methods of the Cthulhu’s Origin?"
God Cloud’s mind rxed; as long as his opponent still had demands, this would be easy.
A puzzled expression was currently stered on Aixi’s face while she was being propped up by God Cloud with one hand. Even though arge amount of ck symbols were crawling up her back slowly, she felt nothing, but even so, pain seemed apparent in her eyes.
Looking at Garen, who was not far away, her mouth moved to speak but no sound came out. Even her right to speak was being controlled by God Cloud.
Lowering her head, Aixi stopped moving. Regarding God Cloud’s minor movements, she was no longer worried. She was just being held, gently, by him, while both her eyes were half shut.
"You want to fuse the Cthulhu’s Origin?"
God Cloud did not notice Aixi’s current expression because he was ring at the man opposite him instead.
ck Swamp Pce Master Garen Trejons. He had a breakthrough not long ago and entered lower Form 5, but his battle skills rivaled peak Form 5 in reality. He had ughtered countless Cthulhuism Society bases consecutively and defeat many Cthulhu alliances, before finally disappearing suddenly. No one had expected him to suddenly appear here.
"To hand it over or not, that is your own choice." ck Poison Mist permeated out from below Garen’s feet continuously, surrounding a range of more than hundreds of meters around him, enveloping around God Cloud and the woman tightly as well.
Within the ck mist, ck chains began floating out of midair in the surroundings of the two people. It resisted the corrosion of the Poison Mist.
God Cloud’s eyes shed; the current situation between him and his enemy was undesirable.
"I can give you the methods, but who can assure me that you won’t make another move after I give it to you?"
"This will depend on your luck." Garenughed, he had noticed Aixi a long time ago, but she was always exiting the Obscuro professionals’ base, and thus he had no opportunities, and could only keep following closely behind her and wait for his chance.
He never expected that Aixi would leave the base alone this time, and when he found out that the person she was meeting was actually God Cloud, Garen prepared to retreat quietly, but never thought that God Cloud would make a move first.
When he grasped the key moment when the two Marshalls would be at their weakest, Garen appeared instantly.
Both of the Marshalls would surely have Crystal Derivators, but with professionals of their level, Totems that were controlled by something like that would only be useful to dy time. The true determinant of victory or defeat depended on one’s own strength.
"Alright, I can give the Origin fusion method to you. But this method requires a longer time to be exined verbally..." God Cloud hesitated slightly, opening his mouth suddenly.
"It doesn’t matter, we have more than enough time." Garen’s mouth stretched into a smile, exposing his pearly white teeth, but strangely enough, his current teeth had be slightly sharper, and resembled a saw, unlike human teeth.
"For plotting against President Hellgate’s blood-rted younger sister, the West Continent military department Marshall, your future days will not be good, God Cloud... Do you want to consider leaving Obscuro Society to join my ck Swamp Pce instead?"
"You don’t have to worry about that anymore." Aixi opened her mouth suddenly. White light shed throughout her whole body before she escaped from God Cloud’s arms at once and stood on his side quietly. It was obvious that God Cloud had given up his control of her, allowing her to escape.
"Big Brother God Cloud did not do anything to me, your eyes have fooled you."
Garen’s expression remained unchanged, he was now sure that Aixi was the historical Marshall that had broke through using the Cthulhu’s Origin, but at this moment it was obvious that she had not broken through yet, and did not need to be feared. Meanwhile God Cloud had had a burden removed from him, and could rx during this battle. Victory and defeat would be harder to determine now. However, it was fortunate that the Tactics from earlier had left arge impact on his remaining strength.
A somber expression shed past God Cloud’s face, but he opened his mouth calmly, before he started to exin the methods and conditions of absorbing the Cthulhu’s Origin.
"The Cthulhu’s Origin is evil and manic, most people should not even think of absorbing it, merely approaching it could cause someone to be bewitched by the strength of the Origin. Once the mind ispletely immersed in it for eternity, they will be unable to free themselves. They must be of a high level, and their will must be extremely strong, before they are able to absorb it without being influencedpletely. We at Obscuro and the Obscuro Society have been researching it carefully to find the easiest method of absorption, and although there is a certain amount of risk attached, the dangers have been reduced significantly. This method of absorbing the Origin has two conditions."
He paused. "First, the Cthulhu King’s will must be removed, and I’ve heard that you’ve already reached this step, so I won’t talk about that. Meanwhile, the second condition is that you need to use proper, fitting Ancient Endor Secret Techniques and adjust them."
"Adjust Ancient Endor Secret Techniques?" Garen raised his eyebrows slightly.
"That’s right, the Cthulhu’s Origin possesses a nature that is extremely violent and tempting. Without a method of adjustment, even if you were to get stronger, you would only destroy it and would not be able to absorb it for your own use," said God Cloud indifferently. "If that wasn’t the case, why do you think that Aixi would be the only one in Obscuro Society that would be able to absorb it?"
"Then Scy and the others..."
"There will be certain short term benefits, but it will be a hurdle that will obstruct them in the future. The longer it drags on, the stronger this hindrance will be, causing them to deteriorate in the end." A mocking expression appeared on God Cloud’s face. He was truly shrewd, as he could remain calm even after Garen ridiculed him earlier, while being able to exin everything to him clearly.
"Then which Origins are to be used with which Secret Techniques?" Garen continued asking.
"The Secret Techniques that can be matched with the Origins have always been in the hands of the Cthulhu King, and Aixi had coincidentally found out that her own Secret Technique which the Love God’s Origin hadn’t rejected too much. This was how she absorbed it. I heard that you obtained different types of Origins from the Cthulhu King, and to remove the Cthulhu King’s will, you almost had a full-on battle with him. Unfortunately, the Cthulhu King’s Secret Technique is the only way to match all of the various Cthulhu’s Origins, and if you want to absorb all of the Origins, the only method is for you to obtain the Cthulhu King’s Secret Techniques on your own," God Cloud sneered. "Don’t assume that this is a trick, there are many people that know about this method, and some people from the Hidden World school of thought are also aware of it, but no one has been able to reach this point."
Garen furrowed his eyebrows.
If all of this was true, this would be an overt n, and it seemed that God Cloud had already correctly guessed that he could not afford not to confront the Cthulhu King.
Suddenly, he smiled faintly. He outstretched his right hand, while his index finger pointed upwards.
Hiss!
A shroud of ck mist shaped like a snake was released from his fingertip. It twisted and coiled around, just like a living creature, it let out snake-like hissing noises.
"I know the methods already, but since I came all the way here, I should return what I owe you from the battle at Snowy Peak."
Before he finished speaking, Garen suddenly released the ck snake on his head.
The ck snake rushed out, and grewrger in midair, and suddenly transformed from the thickness of a finger into a terrifyinglyrge snake that had a diameter of a few meters. It opened itsrge mouth and rushed towards God Cloud.
Countless clouds of ck Poison Mist rolled around as the ck snake let out silent howls while charging directly towards God Cloud. The iparably toxic corrosive smoke permeated throughout the surroundings as the sand on the beach was corroded into puddles of ck water, while the nearby seawater turned ck as well, and a rotten stench filled the air.
"Lock!!" God Cloud’s eyes widened as he ced both of his hands together quickly. Countless ck chains burst out of the ground around him, forming a ck cylinder, protecting him inside.
Pfoo!!
Throughout the whole beach, ck chains burst out towards the sky like fountains in an extremely obtrusive manner.
The chain cylinder collided with the ck snake while rays of ck light burst out silently between them suddenly. Aixi stood wide-eyed on the sidelines, witnessing this peak Form 5 battle. Most Totem Users had never been given the chance to see something like this in their lifetimes.
The ck light dispersed like a bomb that had exploded, and only remained for an instant before vanishing.
On the burnt yellow beach where explosion followed explosion, faint lights ignited from within and only a dull banging noise could be heard.
The figures of God Cloud and Garen violently crashed into one another repeatedly.
Both of them stuck close together, their four limbs a chaotic, ovepping flurry. The ck chains and ck Poison Mist in their surroundings intertwined with one another, while ck melted liquid flowed downwards constantly.
Garen brought his palms together and brought them downwards, while all ten of his fingers were pressed against each other. He hit God Cloud’s arm with overwhelming violence from above, his whole body floating in midair, both of his eyes pitch-ck, devilish slits.
God Cloud raised both of his arms to deflect the powerful hit from above, while the chains popped out from beside him periodically.
Boom!!
Arge round pit split open beneath God Cloud’s feet, and a crater reced what was a ten-meter diameter hemisphere of beach sand below.
"Wheel!!" A ck hole appeared on God Cloud’s chest suddenly, and a ray of ck light shot out of the hole, transforming into a slow rotating,plex round wheel.
The ck wheel was filled with moving ck chains and Tactic runes. Crisp wind noises could be heard in midair slowly, as if they were drifting over from a faraway ce.
A simrly magnified ck wheel appeared in the air beside Garen silently. A strong, locking attraction locked it in ce, while everything inside the wheel, such as sand, sea water, and air, were all tightly held in ce by the strong chain powers.
God Cloud had no intention of letting his guard down. He took a few steps backwards hastily, while the ck wheel on his chest broke open, and a pitch-ck arm stretched out of the ck hole suddenly.
The five fingers on the hand all had sharp nails, while a ferocious face grew out of the palm. It appeared, it rushed towards Garen without pause, its ws pointed its target. A ripping noise could be heard at that moment, and five pitch-ck cracks appeared. Apparently, it could even rip through thin air!
Within the ck wheel, both of Garen’s eyes were devoid of pupils, leaving only darkness. The red marks on his forehead had disappearedpletely long ago, and had slowly transformed into a narrow, ck crack.
"Locked Wheel, huh?" He moved his body suddenly, while a crisp cracking noise could suddenly be heard throughout the air, as if porcin had cracked or ss had broken.
"ck Water Traction!!"
Garen outstretched his right hand. Countless ck snakes coiled around his arm, rushing towards the Pitch-ck Demon Arm directly.
A crisp cracking noise rang across the beach.
The Pitch-ck Demon Arm and Garen’s right arm collided against each other with crushing force, and at almost the exact same moment, both of them copsed.
The Demon Arm broke into tiny pieces of flesh before turning into ck light and disappearing, while a painful howl echoed out of the darkness.
Garen’s right arm broke off instantly as well, and turned into countless bloodied flesh pieces that flew everywhere, before instantly melting into the surrounding Poison Mist.
A bout of intense pain shot through his right arm, but Garen ignored it. The shadow of a dragon shrouded his face before a guttural roar rang out. His right leg rose into the sky, and countless tufts of ck smoke amassed. His leg expanded and reached more than ten meters as arge column of ck smoke appeared suddenly.
Bang!!
The two ck figures separated at the same time, and flew towards opposite directions.
Blood flowed out of the bandages around God Cloud’s waist continuously, but soon stopped. His figure appeared half-kneeling on the ground, his expression unchanged while he took a deep breath before standing up.
On the opposite side of the sea, Garen’s figure had already gibbed into flesh chunks, and after the collision earlier, after he and God Cloudpared their physical strengths, he realized that ten points of Vitality could still allow anti-shock abilities to shatter his whole body.
The ck Poison Mist quickly enveloped him into a mist ball, and in the blink of an eye, the mist had disappeared, and Garen’s healthy body had appeared once again.
His upper body was bare, while his lower body was covered by the Poison Mist. He was floating above the sea, as if he had not been injured at all.
"The Nine-Life Talent?" God Cloud raised his eyebrows slightly, he had just finished speaking, before the shadow of a ck wheel appeared above his right shoulder in midair suddenly, it was only the size of a palm, but it emitted crisp, empty wind noises again in midair.
Bang!!
Garen’s body that he had just solidified suddenly exploded with a ‘bang’.
