Innate Divine Ability "God Devouring"

Boom!

Boom!

In the sky, a black figure and a red figure clashed continuously. Whenever they collided, thunderous explosions rang out, while the space around them was torn open with crack after crack.

Whoosh!

The two figures separated at the first touch, finally facing each other in midair several hundred meters apart!

Lynn, dressed in a black robe, gripped his staff with both hands, his expression calm and unruffled. The Beast God, clad in fiery red armor, looked rather miserable, his face pale.

Its Soul Attack was ineffective against Lynn, while its strength was completely crushed by his. Throughout their battle, it had been suppressed at every turn!

"Human! I am no match for you! But it is impossible for you to defeat me either!" the Beast God said unwillingly. "Why don't we stop here? The faith of humans will belong to you, and the faith of Beastmen will belong to me!"

Hearing the Beast God's proposal, Lynn secretly shook his head. My strength is greater than its, but my comprehension of profound mysteries is inferior to its. Even with my powerful Soul Power allowing me to ignore its Soul Attack, defeating it through strength alone will still be difficult!

If I were an ordinary Demigod, I really would have no choice but to stop today. But I am not!

Lynn looked at the Beast God indifferently. "You, die!"

"Yooo—"

As Lynn's words fell, a strange howl sounded. Behind him—

A massive phantom of a God Devouring Rat, a full hundred meters tall, appeared in midair. The God Devouring Rat opened its jaws, and an eerie force instantly enveloped the Beast God. Its entire body froze in midair, unable to move.

The God Devouring Rat's Innate Divine Ability, "God Devouring"!

"What is this? Ah, no—" The Beast God sensed the mysterious power acting upon its godhead and immediately fell into despair.

The moment the "God Devouring" ability activated, a piece of information naturally surfaced in Lynn's mind. There was only one fire-element godhead within his opponent's body!

"Destroy!"

As Lynn continued activating the ability, a fire-element godhead emerged directly from the Beast God's body, transforming into a streak of light that flew into Lynn's hand.

A Divine Clone's soul resided within its godhead. With the godhead taken away by Lynn, the Beast God's aura immediately vanished, and its body fell weakly to the ground.

"A godhead!" Lynn looked at the black crystal in his hand, which radiated a crimson glow. Then, with a wave of his hand, the Beast God's Divine Artifact and Spatial Ring also flew into his grasp.

Lynn's battle with the Beast God had long since drawn the attention of many god-level beings on the Orlando Plane. Their Spiritual Senses descended to observe the fight, and when they saw Lynn use "God Devouring" to kill the Beast God outright, all of them were stunned.

"What kind of ultimate move was that? An Innate Divine Ability? How could a human possess an Innate Divine Ability?"

"That Innate Divine Ability is far stronger than both mine and Old Turtle's!"

"The Orlando Plane has gained another troublesome figure!"

The God Devouring Rat's talent could Devour godheads and use the Godhead Essence within them to strengthen its divine body. However, Lynn had no intention of Devouring this godhead.

Godheads were precious in a Material Plane!

Besides, Devouring a single godhead would not greatly improve his divine body. After storing the godhead and Divine Artifact in his Spatial Ring, Lynn forced out a drop of blood and let it fall onto the Beast God's Spatial Ring.

Yet, to Lynn's surprise, the drop of blood rolled around atop the Spatial Ring but could not seep into it.

"The Beast God still has a clone alive!" Lynn frowned, and his immense Spiritual Sense instantly swept across the entire Orlando Continent.

But before long, he furrowed his brows. "Nothing?"

Within the range of his Spiritual Sense, there was not a single living being with the same soul aura as the Beast God. Lynn could not help but speculate, Could it have another Divine Clone that went to a Supreme Plane?

But just as Lynn was preparing to crush the ring, the drop of blood that had been rolling around suddenly seeped into it.

The Spatial Ring had successfully acknowledged its owner!

"What the hell?" Lynn was utterly confused.

At the very moment Lynn used "God Devouring" to kill the Beast God, in a cave deep underground at an unknown depth, the elemental energy was incredibly concentrated. Magic crystals had even condensed all around the cave!

A figure that looked exactly like the Beast God, but possessed only the Saint Domain Limit, abruptly opened its eyes. Shocked and furious, it said, "My Divine Clone has been destroyed!"

"Whew, whew! Was that the Innate Divine Ability of a divine beast? It was too terrifying!"

It revealed a bitter smile. "Haha... I spent so long becoming a god even in the fire-element laws I am best at. How much longer would I need for other laws? Would I still have a chance to become a god?"

"I'll risk it!" It looked at a hollow in the stone wall that emitted intense spatial fluctuations, a resolute expression appearing on its face. "Let's see what is inside! Perhaps it can help me take revenge!"

Whoosh!

It transformed into an afterimage and rushed into the hollow. Only moments later—

"Ah!"

A scream rang out, and the cave fell completely silent once more.

"The Beast God should be dead now, right?" Lynn put away the Spatial Ring that had successfully acknowledged him and transformed into an afterimage as he flew toward the human territory in the south. Along the way, he casually crushed the Saint Domain magus who had destroyed Custer City several years ago.

At Grayrock Manor, Desman stood in the courtyard, staring uncertainly toward the north.

Not long ago, he had been cultivating when he sensed intense elemental fluctuations erupting in the north. He was currently hesitating over whether to investigate what had happened. The previous elemental disturbance was caused by the battle between the Beast God and the Elf King. What about this one?

Swish!

While Desman was still hesitating, Lynn's figure appeared before him as though he had teleported.

"Lynn?" Desman was astonished. He had not seen Lynn's movement at all when he appeared just now. When had Lynn become so powerful?

Lynn nodded with a smile. "Teacher, it's me!"

Then, Lynn said something that left Desman utterly shocked. "Teacher, I have become a god! And just now, I killed the Beast God! So, Teacher, please inform the Supreme Council and the major human kingdoms to take over the Beastmen's territory!"

"From now on, the Beastmen will be vassals of humanity!"

"Am I dreaming? Lynn became a god?" Even after Lynn left, Desman remained immersed in the shock Lynn had brought him.

Meanwhile, Lynn flew toward home. After killing the Beast God, there was no longer any need for him to handle the remaining matters personally. Of course, he had also asked Teacher Desman to convey his recommendations for dealing with them to humanity's Supreme Council.

Those Beastmen who bore blood feuds with humanity would be judged and executed, while the remaining Beastmen would become subjects of the human kingdoms.

At Duke Harrington's Manor, Lynn's figure quietly appeared before Duke Harrington, who was diligently cultivating.

He smiled at him. "Father, do you want to become an emperor?"
