Chapter 346 Beatrice's Origin Core
Beatrice was at the final stages of her attempt. She had now burned all her stats to infuse with the energy that was sucked over from the entirety of the quantum world, entering the now strongly pulsing Origin Core that was only an inch away from success.
At the final moment, she thrust her Concoction of Absorption ability right into the heart of the Origin Core, and it made its final pulse as it expanded rapidly and spread a shockwave of orange light throughout her soul space.
She basked in this warm light as it filled her entire existence, making her not want for energy in any aspect ever again. Like Dante, Beatrice had successfully condensed an Origin Core and was now a half-Origin God!
When she opened her eyes to take in the world around her, she saw that the world was much bleaker and desolate compared to before, and everything not within a hundred miles of her current location looked like it was about to wither and die.
However, her lack of control made it such that an orange pulse escaped her body, passing through the entire world. Immediately, all things that looked like they were about to die regained their life, becoming far more lush than ever before.
The will of the Immortal World which had been reduced to a withered and cracked seed suddenly sprouted and became a formless baby, before rapidly growing into a teenager then a young adult.
It was far more condensed and solid compared to before, but still had androgynous features as well as a faceless visage. After all, it represented the will of all living things in the world and even the planet itself, so it did not have a specific identity.
Still, due to its growth beyond what it had been before - which was a mere baby - it fed back to the entire quantum world as hundreds of resources of all grades suddenly sprouted up in places while all lifeforms subtly experienced an upgrade in their state of life, able to obtain spirit roots - and of a higher quality than usual - much easier when born.
The benefits the world had gained were incalculable and could only be seen in the future. All of this was achieved by one careless pulse of energy from the newly ascended Beatrice with the most basic Origin Core.

"Wow mummy, you were so cool! All the lights and winds were rushing around you, and your body was glowing, and you were like a beacon in the dark, and…" Antonia began to gush her amazement, which made Beatrice smile and tickle her gently.
"How did I do?" Beatrice then asked Dante with a glowing face.
"Well, your spectacle was much greater than mine, and you even made up for the stuff you took away." Dante said with a smirk.
"Yeah, I'm kinda surprised about that. When I made this plan, I fully thought I would suck this entire world into nothingness and still have an energy deficit, but everything worked out in the end." Beatrice admitted as she placed her arms akimbo and looked around with surprise.
It was then that she noticed the 'spectators'. Immediately, she understood why they had come here and her eyes flashed with maliciousness. Beatrice was the polar opposite of Dante who was not willing to kill easily in that she would kill if you even looked at her wrong.
Dante simply closed Antonia's eyes as everyone not part of the Pure Heaven Sect suddenly felt a chill in their hearts, knowing that something terrible was about to happen. Many tried to break into space to flee and escape, but it was futile as Beatrice simply summoned out Biggie the Infinity Beast.
"Big! I want all things in the world to be big!" Biggie roared with glee as Beatrice raised a palm and smashed down, the size of her hand growing rapidly until it encompassed all her targets, also infused with origin energy.
There was no chance for them to survive such an attack as all of them were turned into meat paste as the ground was caved in, forming a giant crater that would forever mark this landscape.
Dante released Antonia's eyes, and she bit his hand angrily for not allowing her to see what happened. Dante ignored his daughter's tantrum and held the neck of the leader of the third-grade sect in his other hand, having whisked him out of Beatrice's crosshairs.
"Hm? Why is he important?" Beatrice asked with confusion as she had no idea why Dante saved this guy, but the way he was holding him clearly indicated otherwise.
Immediately, Antonia took on a teary voice as she released Dante's hand and flew into to Beatrice's embrace. "Mummy, that mean guy threatened to hurt me and daddy, saying that he would make me his slave for serving others when I grow up!"
Beatrice's cold expression became even frostier as a purple aura unfurled around her body, her eyes glowing with literal killing intent. Her long hair floated in the air and her entire body stole the attention of all creatures in the area.
Even Antonia couldn't help but gasp with amazement and awe, but Dante as well as the feminine demonic cultivator only felt like they had been thrust into an ice cellar at this moment.
Dante's face changed greatly as he tossed the guy away and breathed a sigh of relief when he no longer felt the weight of his wife's killing intent being locked onto him as a collateral of his proximity to her target.
"No, please spare me!" The man screamed as she tried to run, knowing in his heart that it was futile but still grasping onto a thin thread of hope.

His pale and frightened face was in deep contrast to the one he wore in arrogance and cruelty when he threatened Dante and Antonia.
"P-Please… I-I didn't mean… ARRRGHHHH!" He immediately tried to beg, but his words were cut off by the agony of Beatrice thrusting her hand right into his skull.
Despite this, her hands which were coated in Origin Energy did not touch any of his flesh or bone, directly piercing into his soul space and gripping his Golden Immortal Soul that he had condensed during the Golden Immortal Realm.
Beatrice dragged the glowing soul out and tossed his now lifeless and rapidly decaying body to the side like trash. Before it even hit the ground, it slowly turned into ash and disappeared with the wind.

Beatrice then put it away much to the fearful looks from the remnants of the Pure Heaven Sect who had watched everything happen from top to bottom but did not dare speak due to the fact that they were witnessing history being made.
However, the one who was the most frightful was Antonia, who had witnessed everything firsthand fright from Beatrice's embrace, from the moment Beatrice placed her hand into the fellow's body down to the moment his soul was compressed into a ball.
The young toddler had not witnessed such raw violence before, and she was definitely pale as a sheet with fear, especially since the one meting out the violence was her own mother.
Dante sighed.
Initially, he had raised a hand to stop Beatrice, but decided against it. Both he and Beatrice had been troubled when Antonia stated that her impression of Beatrice was purely that of gentleness, for that was only one aspect of her.
Antonia would have to come face to face with her mother's darker side and learn to accept it, so Dante felt that now was a good time as any. Still, he could understand the shock that Antonia was probably in right now and appeared beside Beatrice, flicking her on the temple and taking Antonia away.
"Stop scaring our daughter. She isn't used to this kind of stuff," Dante rebuked Beatrice because even though it was good for Antonia to see this, Beatrice could have used a less brutal method.
Beatrice winced and then glanced guiltily at the trembling Antonia. "Sorry, my love, mommy got angry because that evil man dared to threaten you. I didn't mean to scare you."
Antonia relaxed and breathed out. She then forced a smile that was a bit too mature for her age. "D-Don't worry, mommy, I-I am not scared!"
Both Dante and Beatrice sighed internally and knew that the little one would need time to recuperate from this. As such, they glanced at the Pure Heaven Sect members and nodded towards them.
"For housing us, here is your reward," Dante proclaimed as he generated a small orb of condensed Origin Energy.
"Use that as the core of a formation for any of your mountains, and it can provide endless immortal qi for cultivation for up to 10,000 years," he said as he casually revealed its ability, causing the cultivators here to feel a heartquake.
