Novel Bin Chapter 168 - The Demigods Arrive...
-----
The Lands of Sandara were a hostile place within the Ginnun Continent, they made up 40% of the entire continent, and were a desolate area that spread across many kilometers.
It was made up mostly out of sand, gray sand and ashes of ancient sleeping volcanoes which all covered this world with their ashes and made a lot of sand out of it.
These lands were once enjoying a good and enriching place, as they held large lakes of colorful chemical liquids that were drank and used as resources by several races of Demons.
However, over a thousand years ago, a sudden storm of cataclysmic proportions covered the entirety of this continent\'s area, the life of this desert was wiped out that day, leaving nothing behind at all, but ruins that were buried below the sand…
The storm\'s origins were unknown, but it was said that it shrouded the entire place in darkness.
Now, the abyssal power that devoured it all through this storm lays dormant within an ancient ruin, waiting for a prey big enough to be capable of regaining enough energy…
TRUUMMM!!!
Suddenly, a gigantic millipede monster emerged from the sand, roaring. Its entire body was covered in metallic exoskeleton and had sharp claws on each of its sharp and thin legs. With gigantic jaws leaking deadly venom, it roared loudly.
"GRRYYSSHA!"
"GROAR!"
Another monster greeted it. A gigantic worm with brown skin and rocks spreading across its body! It had spiraling jaws and leaked deadly and poisonous venom from within its entire jaws, jumping over the millipede and entangling its body, biting its hard exoskeleton with its spiraling jaws!
The millipede used its sharp jaws to tear apart the giant sand worm\'s rock shell, reaching into its flesh and tearing it apart fiercely.
The two gigantic beasts who reached almost 20 meters continued to fight while entangling one another!
HOWEVER!
Suddenly, several lights appeared from within the skies, as they all fell like flashing colorful meteors from outer space.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
These flashing and colorful meteors of immense and flashing essence reached the giant creatures and torn them apart as they fell over the ground.
The explosions of colorful auras of divinity slowly faded away as five figures were left over the sand.
Their bodies were mildly wounded, and their face expressions looked a bit exhausted, they were clearly tired after having done everything they had done.
These figures clothes were all damaged as well, and whatever weapons they carried were lost in outer space… even for being such as them, maneuvering through space was difficult, even more against powerful fleets led by Mindflayer Demigods named Mind Gods, who fused their technology with their incredibly psionic powers to fuel their fleets with great strength, even a cannon attack from one of their spaceships was enough to blast a Demigod and weaken it severely, another two, and they were dead.
These five divine beings were all that was left from that war, or what they thought was all there was left. The battle against the Mindflayer fleet was monstrous and terrifyingly chaotic.
The Demigods led by Gods sent by the Supreme Entity of Brightness were greeted by a large fleet of Mindflayers with their gigantic spaceships. If they were mere mortals, they would had been able to handle them, even Pseudo Demi Deities… but these Mind Gods boosted the power of their technology to incredible levels of power.
The Mind Gods led the fleet and fought against the Gods sent by the Supreme Entity of Brightness, both factions slaughtered one another almost mindlessly, as blood was spread across the entire space.
What was left was scrap and junk metal left by the many spaceships destroyed, amongst the corpses of the divine entities that perished in here.
The last surviving ones flew down below, following the faint presence of Chaos as they had come to finally finish their mission here, with many of them dead and the entire fleet of Mindflayers slaughtered, they had finally come to do what they had originally come to do here. Although they felt exhausted, as Gods, they could resist the exhaustion and continue moving forward at a fast speed.
They looked across the land where they arrived, an ash gray desert…
"This place… where are we?"
"The Chaos energy we felt from around here, there isn\'t a doubt about it, it is the monster."
"This seems to be a desert biome within this continent, nothing too special, keep moving."
"Hahh… So many of our group were defeated… We must go retrieve their souls, as long as our souls remain, they can be revived or have their bodies remade."
"Indeed, that will be our mission after this."
After reaching the rank of Living Deity after Pseudo Demi Deity, gods souls undergo a change and they become truly divine and immortal, their souls cannot die by natural meanings, and when their bodies are defeated, which are usually ageless as well, they can reconstruct new bodies using their souls.
Of course, lifespan is no longer a concept for such beings, they are immortal in the aspect of lifespan, but can still be defeated. Many of the gods sent here died and are floating now in space. Their bodies might be defeated but their souls enter into slumber until they are healed.
Of course, no normal means can defeat a soul unless it is very potent and can weaken it greatly, but the Mind Gods had not the power of shattering souls, so only using raw power, they defeated them and weakened them.
Their souls were floating in the middle of space, entering into slumber as they compacted themselves into spheres of divinity, in such weakened states, souls cannot properly travel through the void of space unless they\'re connected to a transmigration cycle and retrieved by someone. But usually, divine beings detached themselves from such reincarnation cycles which were not able to have power over them.
The weakened gods walked across the sands, their power, although weakened, was still potent, and their eyes were filled with determination to fulfill their mission…
