Awakening：The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener - Chapter 821

Chapter 821: Chapter 821: Ripping Apart the Dark Hand! The Invincible Demon God!
“To think that such an existence could be summoned…”

Sterl stared in shock at the towering behemoth in front of him. Its enormous form seemed like the entire world could scarcely contain it.

Even though he had long expected the terrifying power of this War Soul Resonance ultimate ability, seeing the result in person left him utterly speechless with shock.

He quickly took another careful look at the description of this ability.

[Ancient Behemoth: Using the battle souls and vitality of all soldiers, awaken the Colossal War Beast that has returned to the void of time and space. Once awakened, the Colossal War Beast will fight for you for 300 seconds. The power of the Colossal War Beast is related to the number of soldiers under your command.

(Note: This is the most powerful ability of War Soul Resonance, and is affected by unknown forces. Once awakened, the Colossal War Beast will absolutely follow your commands!)

“That’s it. The summoning range of Ancient Behemoth encompasses all of time and space. As long as a colossal beast has ever existed, it can be summoned.

Desolate, as a once world-spanning powerhouse, it is no surprise that he could be summoned.”

Taking a deep breath, Sterl quickly calmed the intense emotions swirling within him and began to carefully observe the ancient being that had long since faded into the forgotten corners of history and time.

“I wonder what level of strength Desolate has attained. But, in any case, he’s no stronger than a powerful god. Even if a hundred of those strong gods were tied together, they wouldn’t be able to withstand a single slap from him.”

Sterl clicked his tongue in amazement. With the royal city legion’s more than ten million legendary soldiers as the foundation, he had managed to summon such a being.

Indeed, War Soul Resonance’s ultimate ability truly had the power to turn the tides of everything.

Comparing his own strength, even if he were several times stronger, he still couldn’t see a way to defeat Desolate.

After all, this was a being that even several high gods couldn’t defeat. They had to join forces with the will of the world and use the Void Disaster to seal and slowly destroy him.

And the term “high gods” was just another title for the greatest of gods, so… Desolate was very likely at the level of a Great God!

On the battlefield, all the royal city soldiers widened their eyes, their bodies rigid and tense. They stared up in stunned awe at the unknown being that reached into the very heavens. Even with the support of Immortal Battle Will, their bodies couldn’t stop trembling, and their breaths became shallow and difficult.

Kun and the other high-ranking officers of the legion were similarly stunned.

Especially Kun. The stronger his power, the more he could feel the vast, crushing pressure emanating from Desolate.

Since his birth, this was the first time Kun had ever felt so insignificant. It was as though he were a speck of dust in the air—utterly trivial.

Fortunately, this terrifying existence was on his side. Otherwise, just the sheer, unconstrained aura it emitted would be enough to shake everything below the level of a divine authority to death. Even those below the upper divine authority would have no right to stand before it.

At this moment, Desolate appeared somewhat puzzled.

Hadn’t he already been consigned to eternal silence, completely obliterated? How was it possible for him to awaken again from the fabric of time and space?

But soon, a message flooded into his mind, and he instantly understood. He then slowly lowered his head and looked toward Sterl, who appeared as small as a speck of dust in mid-air.

“Did you awaken me?”

His voice seemed to carry some sort of magical force, resonating throughout the entire Alpha 8 World, and even those in the secret realms could feel the deep, booming sound.

“I never expected that one day I would return to this world.”

Desolate took a deep breath, visibly drawing in the air around him. Within a radius of a hundred miles, the space itself turned into a vacuum zone, as all the air was pulled into him.

“Such a pity… in the end, it is all just an illusion.”

Opening his eyes, he appeared calm, showing no signs of regret or hesitation despite his previous demise.

He was an absolute powerhouse, standing at the pinnacle of the world. He had long since grown indifferent to the cycle of life and death. Moreover, the fact that he had been reawakened from the fabric of time meant that he hadn’t truly reached eternal silence. Perhaps one day, he would truly revive.

“As my awakener, according to our agreement, I shall fight for you.”

With that, he paid no further attention to Sterl but instead looked at the massive dark hands he had smashed. In his moon-like eyes, a look of disdain and contempt appeared.

“Only daring to hide in the darkness, trash, come out!!”

Desolate opened his mouth, and an invisible soundwave exploded. Wherever it passed, the Silver-white Nematodes instantly shattered into dust, and even the silver-white liquid they left behind could not form. It collapsed and disintegrated from the material level.

Then, his enormous form instantly appeared before the dark hand, and with a powerful grip, he seized the massive hand that had been attempting to retreat. The frenzy of power surged forth!

Crack…

Immediately, the dark hand let out a screeching, twisting groan, as though it was enduring unimaginable brute force.

Sterl silently watched this scene, a sense of helplessness rising in his heart. This force was even more brutal and ferocious than his Sublimation of Power. It was simply shocking.

Of course, his Sublimation of Power had not yet been developed to its fullest. He had only just begun to awaken and master it.

But his instincts told him that even the limit of Sublimation of Power might not measure up to Desolate’s power. This, perhaps, had already reached a completely different level.

At the same time, Sterl finally understood why he hadn’t found any information about the Ancient Behemoth ability in the Nightmare Overlord’s memories.

He recalled the ultimate abilities in the original War Soul Resonance.

[Ancient Behemoth: Using the battle souls and vitality of all soldiers, awaken the Colossal War Beast that has returned to the void of time and space. Once awakened, the Colossal War Beast will fight for you for 100 seconds. The power of the Colossal War Beast is related to the number of soldiers under your command.]

(Note: This is the strongest ultimate ability of War Soul Resonance, and after awakening the Colossal War Beast, do not actively attack or provoke it.)

Compared to the current ultimate ability, the biggest difference was not the Colossal War Beast’s duration, but rather its absolute obedience to the summoner’s commands!

In contrast, the original version specifically warned against attacking or provoking the Colossal War Beast. This meant that the Colossal War Beast summoned in the original version was likely uncontrollable, attacking indiscriminately!

Looking up at Desolate’s savagery and power, Sterl realized that if Desolate hadn’t been constrained by the War Soul Resonance arcane skill, the first one to die after awakening would likely be him, the summoner!

Instead of calling this the strongest ability of War Soul Resonance, it would be more accurate to call it a forbidden technique. Once activated, whether for enemies or allies, death was inevitable, which explained why neither Nightmare Overlord nor War Demon dared to activate this power.

One must understand that the legions in Dreamland were far stronger than the royal city’s legion. If such a Colossal War Beast were summoned, its power would be unimaginable. If it went out of control, the entire world might not be able to withstand it.

Snapping out of his thoughts, Sterl focused his attention on the battle above. He wanted to see how the mysterious force behind this would deal with the terrifying demon god that had originated from the ancient times of space.

He watched as the massive dark hands, facing Desolate’s brutal power, became increasingly feeble and pale.

Behind the void, the mysterious entity seemed to be slowly dragged out.

“Interesting, to think you could resist my normal strength,” Desolate said lightly, and for the first time, a slight fluctuation appeared in his calm eyes.

“But now… what’s going to happen?”

As he spoke, a blinding red light began to emanate from his chest, as though a star was about to explode!

Endless light and heat poured from his body, and if he hadn’t controlled it, the entire world would likely begin to melt!

Boom!

In an instant, there was a dull, tearing explosion.

The massive black hands, each several tens of thousands of meters in diameter, were forcibly ripped away!

A large amount of gray-black liquid sprayed from the broken ends, and the gray energy, which contained powerful corrosive force, poured onto Desolate’s body, but it didn’t even move him an inch!

“Since you’re not coming out, then I’ll come find you myself!”

Desolate grabbed the two severed dark hands, grinning as he swallowed them whole. Then, with a swift movement, he seized the massive void, which was tens of thousands of meters wide, and suddenly charged into it.

In the next moment, the void began to tremble violently, as though it had been struck by an incredibly powerful force.

Sterl’s eyes widened in shock, his face blank as he stared at Desolate, who had disappeared into the void. Even with his composure, he couldn’t help but be stunned and rooted to the spot.

It took him a long while to snap out of it.

“Th-This is too savage, isn’t it!?”

He sucked in a sharp breath. He knew the Chaos Demon God would be strong, but he hadn’t expected it to be this powerful—so ferocious that he charged straight into the enemy’s lair!

To think that this was the lair of the so-called calamity, a place that even the gods of the upper realms feared and were terrified of!

Sterl had the thought, but if he were to take the same action, he would be dead in seconds, not even having the chance to react.

As for Desolate… first, he had torn apart the dark hands with brute force, then swallowed them, and now, he plunged headlong into the very heart of the enemy’s stronghold. What was most crucial was that through the War Soul Resonance ability, he could clearly feel that Desolate, after charging into the lair of the mysterious entity, had not perished. The connection was still intact!

The tremors of the void grew more intense, and the Silver-white Nematodes that had poured out earlier had completely disappeared.

Occasionally, fluctuations emanated from the void, and even Sterl felt a sense of fear.

One second… ten seconds… a hundred seconds…

Time passed slowly, and Sterl remained suspended in the air, silently waiting.

Below, the battlefield remained in a tense stillness, with the millions of soldiers waiting for the final outcome. They didn’t know the full extent of Desolate’s strength, but the image of him tearing apart the dark hands was deeply imprinted in their minds, and they couldn’t calm themselves.

Soon, two hundred and ninety seconds passed, and the Ancient Behemoth’s duration was about to end.

At that moment, the void began to fluctuate once again.

In the next instant, a giant hand, covered in a large amount of gray-black liquid and crimson blood, suddenly shot out from within the void!
