Rise of The Anti God (Web Novel)
chapter-527

Kalypso clicked her tongue in frustration seeing how Luna was messing with her by keeping her in suspense.

"Before you worry your brains out, why don't you start collecting the soul essence from him? As a True God, he has plenty enough to divide it among Damien's women. So save some for Lily and Yuria. As for you, you can't take everything even if you want now that you have accepted Damien as your new master. Your limits would now be defined by his limits though your potential should at least be the same as it was in the past," Luna mused.

Kalypso sighed, knowing that even if she had an abundance of powerful soul essence to absorb, she could only absorb some of it as she can't become too powerful without separating herself from Damien since it would inflict too much pressure on his soul plane to sustain the connection. But if she separated from him, then she would not only lose some of her cultivation but would be quite useless since, without a host, she wouldn't be able to regulate much of her nethereal energy.

This was why Spirit Weapons were considered to be useless without a master, and why Kalypso was continuously losing her cultivation and energy over time during the period, she was stuck in the mortal realm without a master.

She had already accepted her fate and was ready to die when Damien, fortunately, showed up and saved her from the brink of death.

This was the second chance she was looking for, especially to serve her master, who had inherited the legacy of her previous master.

However, since Luna no longer seemed worried, Kalypso could make out that things had finally gotten better from before, and Damien might very well be out of the danger zone and decided to collect the soul essence from Yohr in the meantime.

Damien was now completely covered in a cocoon of ice, and from the outside, one could not see what was happening to him inside it. If they didn't know better, they would have thought that he was frozen to death.

However, Luna was subtly smiling, seeing the changes that were taking place in Damien's body. She could see his frozen skin, muscles, bones, and even his blood breaking down right down to the smallest particle.

Such a scene would have definitely frightened others thinking that Damien was undergoing some kind of torture and about to face imminent death.

But that was not true. Even if all the energy in his body was frozen as well, the strand of jet-black energy mixed with the azure energy was still circulating through his entire body at a lightning-fast speed, and the more it circulated, the more this strand of energy was increasing in amount.

It continued to circulate again and again till this strand of energy had increased enough to form a continuous flow throughout Damien's body and was the only thing keeping him alive, especially since his ethereal energy was frozen to support his vital functions.

Not long after, his frozen blood cells began to crack and break down to reveal new blood cells that had a glimmering glow to them which was proof that these new blood cells were far from ordinary and were not the same as his previous blood cells.

His frozen bones were breaking down, including his bone marrow, as a new one began to replace it. His cells were continuously breaking themselves down and reforming and reforging themselves into something stronger, sturdier, and resilient.

The same went for his muscles which had reformed and reforged into muscles that seemed as strong as steel. Their size remained the same, yet the dense power that was packing within had skyrocketed to the point where it was incomparable to how it was before.

Even his skin had broken down and reformed into a new one that had a radiant glow to it while its surface was flawless without a speck of imperfection.

It was as if he was undergoing a rebirth of his body literally into a superior one that was beyond the imagination of any mortal.

The reason his body was able to quickly reform the broken down cells was all thanks to his newfound regeneration ability that was quickly replacing the old cells with the new modified cells.

However, all these changes Damien was experiencing were not pleasant. But instead, it literally felt as if somebody was tearing and breaking down his body from inside out, and the pain that followed it was something even devils couldn't endure.

It was a different kind of pain compared to sacrificing his soul essence yet an agonizing one that could make even iron-willed cultivators go mad. However, Damien was someone who had undergone hellish tribulations and torture in this life and the previous one. So even if he found it unbearable, he was using his sheer will to endure and push forward while making sure to not let his mind go crazy from all this pain.

He thought about his women, especially how they need him, and without him, their lives would be miserable and sad, and he couldn't just leave them like that…not again. His lovers were the main motivational force that was keeping him going, especially the idea of finding Sofie again. He just couldn't let go of her that easily.

This process of his body continuously breaking down and reforming into something stronger continued for another hour before finally, the ice cocoon on the outside began to crack, making Kalypso excitedly look on since she was getting too restless and impatient to see Damien well and healthy again.

However, the process was still not over yet as the power of possessing a True God's Origin Seed would do a lot more than just improve one's ethereal cultivation.

The jet-black energy mixed with the azure energy had now become strong enough to even make its way through to Damien's soul plane before spreading in all directions!
