Void Evolution System-Novel



Both Damien and Su Ren's eyes landed on Pandora with evident confusion and intrigue, however, she didn't seem to have any plan to answer them.

"Our Holy Master has explicitly stated that we must not reveal any information prematurely. Even if you are the Blade God, please trust our word for now and consider attending the event. It will only take place after the Grand Assembly ends, so you do not have to rush."

Her words were succinct and her stance was clear, so the duo didn't ask any more questions, but each had their own thoughts on the matter.

Damien had a slight frown on his face.

It was incredibly suspicious timing, and since Prismatic Sun Holy Land itself was so mysterious, there was no way to tell what their actual intentions were.

However, he didn't think it'd be a bad idea to go. He was also curious about them, after all.

As Damien watched Su Ren and Pandora continue their conversation, changes took place in different parts of the mystic realm.

Many of the newly entered geniuses had gathered together in groups of ten to fifteen and spread across the realm, showing no interest in its treasures whatsoever.

Their movements were already suspicious, and it seemed…

…they never planned to hide their intentions.

"Brothers, it's time!" A man said at the head of one of these groups.

He faced his fellows and raised his fist into the air.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

"Let us show this universe our power!"

RAAAAAAAAAH!

A loud cheer, louder than possible from such a small crowd, erupted from their bodies.

And following that cheer, they began to morph.

Their skin greyed, their eyes became feral, and their bodies expanded into massive hulking forms.

BANG!

The first man slammed his foot into the ground once his transformation ended and grinned.

"For freedom! For power! Kill!"

""KILL!""

The crowd spread out, their newly transformed bodies acting as tanks with their pure strength, and only worsened by the addition of mana.

They weren't the only ones either.

Countless groups, adding up to over 10,000 geniuses in total, completed the same transformation and made their advent on the realm.

They didn't allow their presence to go unknown.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Everyone be careful! There are beasts approaching!"

A man spoke to the four disciples behind him. His name was Alex, and the group he led was from a smaller sect called the Ice King Sect.

They survived through the first two calamities with a mixture of luck and skill that had landed them the attention of a few experts watching from the outside world, and though the second calamity was over, they stayed alert in preparation for the next one.

Alex stood at their head and raised his sword, facing the direction of the noise.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

It sounded like explosions, but his perception wasn't so weak. He could hear the trees cracking and exploding, he could hear the ground shattering at the furious steps of those creatures.

Bang!

The trees in front of them finally exploded, and the beasts were revealed.

They were terrifying abominations that looked like massive humanoid gorillas. Their eyes were dyed black and their teeth were framed with two massive fangs that seemed to have no purpose but to rip enemies to shreds.

"T-that…what is that?!" A young genius exclaimed, taking a step back as he shakily gripped his sword.

Alex's eyes narrowed.

"I…don't know."

He gritted his teeth. He could feel how powerful these beasts were, but he didn't want to be eliminated like this!

Firming his will, he stepped forward and slashed his sword, entering combat with the—

'Did it just…grin?'

His sword raced through the air and slammed into the creature's side.

Clang!

Sparks flew like two metals clashed, but the sword wasn't able to pierce the beast's defense at all.

Alex looked up. It was an instinctual movement.

And he saw it.

The mad grin that decorated that beast's face.

Bang!

His vision went dark.

Alex's junior siblings watched in terror as their senior brother was turned into meatpaste in a single slap.

And his body…

…why wasn't his body disappearing?

"Run!"

"Hahahaha! Brothers, let's go!"

The beast's words were jolting. The beasts in this mystic realm weren't supposed to have any intelligence!

But before any of the four could think further about it, they met the same fate as their senior brother.

Five puddles of blood were left among the destroyed remains of a forest that had just regrown.

These five geniuses from the Ice King Sect wouldn't have the same pleasure of life as those who died in this realm before them.

No, they met their true ends at the hands of those beasts.

Holy Light Star became a slaughterhouse.

Those transformed geniuses ran amok and killed without care, bringing true death to tens of geniuses every minute.

BOOM!

Damien and Su Ren's group all turned their heads at once as an explosion rang out nearby.

The same beasts entered their eyes, only, their number was over twenty.

They were almost ten kilometers away, but they were approaching at a rapid pace and would surely arrive within a minute.

"So, what's happening now?" Su Ren asked, somewhat confused.

"Fuck…" Damien said at the same time.

He sighed.

'This is why we can't fucking have nice things.'

"Su Ren, let me put Xiao Yue where Xue'er is, and get ready for battle," he said solemnly.

Su Ren raised his brow but didn't refuse. Without explaining anything to the girl herself, Damien sent her to the Sanctuary.

"Haa…" he sighed.

"Instead of sighing, can you tell us what's going on?" Pandora said, looking at him slightly angrily.

Damien smiled wryly, knowing she definitely didn't believe his disguise.

'Now that this has happened, there's no point in keeping it on anyway.'

He wanted to have fun with the Prismatic Sun Holy Land geniuses for a bit longer, but it couldn't be helped.

"Those beasts have a strong scent of Nox Mana on them. It looks like some traitors couldn't wait any longer," he finally said, revealing his true face.

Pandora's eyes widened slightly, and her junior sisters reacted far more violently, but now wasn't the time to care about them.

"How sure are you?" Pandora asked again.

"According to you, you've been tracking my movements for a while now. How sure do you think I am?"

"Hmm…"

Pandora hummed, slightly embarrassed, but soon turned to face the approaching beasts.

"We can discuss things further when this is dealt with. For now, let us slay these scum."

Damien and Su Ren joined her and drew their weapons.

The Nox Worshippers arrived, stopping to face the group.

And the battle on the horizon started with Damien.

Bang!

He dug his foot into the ground and shot forward like a bullet, leaving only a few words as he rapidly approached the enemies.

"By the way, the weakest ones are level 399!"

'Void Sword Art Fourth Form: Spatial Collapse'

BOOM!

Space bent and twisted into a beautiful piece of conceptual art, and three of the Nox Worshippers were directly sucked into its grasp.

The rest immediately roared and began their attack, charging both into the spatial storm and at the remaining six geniuses.

Su Ren clutched his blade firmly and smiled.

"Well then, let us get to work."
