Apotheosis

As soon as the Evil God entered the stone gate, he felt the weight of the black smog. He paused slightly.

He shivered a bit, but soon adapted to it.

The black smog obscured the light, but after adjusting to the darkness, his eyes soon caught sight of Garrett sprinting away.

"Humph," the Evil God snorted.

With a small hop, he launched himself straight at Garrett, hurtling through the air like a bird of prey.

Garrett had seen him all this while, looking back as he moved forward.

His face fell as soon as he spotted the Evil God in the Chaotic Source World.

Garrett was sure he could take on the Evil God, but he had no intention of confronting him now.

But who would be happy with a lunatic hunting them for no reason?

"Toad Pace!"

At this, Garrett accelerated.

His steps now followed a special rule. He could still move forward at high speed even with the black smog in his way.

"So, you choose to flee?"

A cold light flashed in the Evil God's eyes. He picked up his speed behind Garrett. It seemed like he would soon overtake him.

The distance between them began to close quickly.

Seeing this, Garrett panicked.

"How could he be so fast?!"

The black smog should have had the same effect on the Evil God as on him. The former hadn't gone into the higher stage of the Other Shore Realm, so he shouldn't be much stronger than him.

Realizing he could not get rid of the Evil God, Garrett stopped in his tracks with a new resolve.

He waved his hands, pulled out two machetes from his belt, and faced the oncoming threat head-on. "I have no enmity with you! Why are you chasing me?"

The Evil God halted, excitement dancing in his eyes. He let out a sinister laugh. "You know the answer!"

At his words, Garrett's face darkened. With a flash, a snake shadow appeared and crawled along the surface of each machete.

It was an Other Shore Treasure, and there was a fourth-grade Other Shore Token from Stage Thirteen merged with it.

"You want to fight me?" Garrett spat out, a deadly warning in h

hand is the Ways-blending Energy, and that he has integrated many..." Mya slightly curled her hair with a finger. "Having fused the Godly Ways to such a degree, this guy is by no means weak..."

"It's just a fusion of different Godly Ways. What's the big deal?" Mount raised his hand, radiating a colorful glow from his fingertips, which contained at least two thousand different Godly Ways that had been blended.

As Mya looked at the beautiful Ways-blending Energy, a smile played at the corners of her mouth. She sighed, "Uncle Mount, you really are omnipotent..."

"Blending Godly Ways is not as difficult as you think. As long as you have enough time, you can make it, too. But it's difficult to activate its power. I just don't know where this young man learned the method to get more than a hundred layers of Ways-blending Energy, making it as powerful as an Other Shore Token," Mount mused somberly.

As they watched, the Evil God moved to embed a diamond-shaped fragment into the back of Garrett's head.

The Evil God was certain that Garrett would die, but just then, a brown ball appeared at the top of his head. As the ball cracked, a layer of transparent enamel covered Garrett's body.

The enamel firmly armored Garrett. It appeared as delicate as porcelain.

But the Evil God soon learned it was not. He could not break through it at all!
