THE GOD EATER

Martial Will, shaking his head, said to her, ”This can’t be real, right? Not only did you have two hidden pathways, but they are also the Seer Pathway and the Deciever Pathway.”

”Surely you must be deceiving us again. You can’t be hiding two Grand Daos for this long without taking advantage of it.”

If it was true that she was hiding two Grand Daos, then it would mean that she actually possessed four Grand Daos and was as powerful as Tepid Scholar at his peak.

This would mean that she was the second strongest Dao Lord after Black Chain. Martial Will didn’t want to believe it.

As if this wasn’t bad enough, Sword Maestro said, ”If she is deceiving us right now, then she must have a way to deceive us, and we haven’t become free from her lies.”

”Not again,” Martial Will said in dismay.

But Tepid Scholar shook his head and said, ”Those aren’t grand Daos. They are trying to look like Grand Daos, but they are not. I can tell this much. As for what pathway they really are, I can’t tell.”

”In summary, she can still deceive us, but she can’t deceive us like she used to be able to. At least, she can’t deceive me that well anymore.”

In a secret message, he said to Heavenly Eye, ”I can also see that large world full of dragons that you’re hiding.”

Heavenly Eye, with a grave voice, said, ”What do you want?”

”I want in,” came the quick reply.

He also made more demands. The more Heavenly Eye heard of his demands, the darker her face became.

However, inwardly, she sighed in relief and thought, ’Good. He took the bait. It seems it was a good idea to throw out a bait and act weak to make him believe that he can now see through me.’

It is true that the loss of her two pathways has weakened her, but as for how much she has really been weakened, it was anyone’s guess. No one could be sure, and she continued to possess some of her mysterious nature.

Only she knew just how much she had been awakened by the loss. One of the weaknesses she was hiding came up when she looked at the dragon.

When she looked at him, she couldn’t see all of the information about him. She couldn’t even see his Cave Heaven anymore. She was now like other Dao Lords in that, intuitively, she could only read his thoughts and more obvious things about him.

As for his Divine Spark and Divine Tower, she couldn’t see them anymore. And if she tried to force her way by using the Seer Pathway, she might be able to catch a glimpse of what the dragon was hiding. But what she would see would no longer be clear and complete.

’Not that I could see everything about the dragon before anyway,’ she thought to herself with a deprecating chuckle. ’So this is not much of a loss to me.’

But it was a big loss to her. The loss was so big that she felt as if a big part of her existence had been ripped out of her.

Meanwhile, after killing the two eagles, the dragon moved on to the avatar that looked like a young scholar. Loki was about to start devouring the young scholar when he saw two new Supreme Metacs appear in the sky.

As usual, he wanted to eat these two new Supreme Metacs. Unfortunately, they were phantoms of power projected by the true body of a Dao Lord, so he wouldn’t gain anything significant from devouring them.

He would have to lure the Dao Lord who owned them into projecting the full Supreme Metac into the stars and using them as avatars before he could claim the two new Supreme Metacs. In the meantime, he used the Power Identification Ability on them.

Rank: 9

Type: Supreme Metac

Specifics: Seer Pathway - 25.

State: Phantom

Rank: 9

Type: Supreme Metac

Specifics: Deceiver Pathway - 25

State: Phantom

As soon as he saw this, he understood their true nature. Then he didn’t think further about them. His attention was swift to return to the scholarly young man in front of him and his attempt to kill this young man.

The young man was in front of him in the range of his external body. This meant that he didn’t need to act physically to kill the young man.

He was able to turn the world around the young man against him by injecting the surrounding area with the Devouring Ability. So the surrounding area had become a death field capable of killing everything within it.

The tracking mark on the young man was also trying to kill him. It was eating at the young man with as much power as the power of the black hole around the man. This made it feel like the young man was being tag-teamed and bullied.

In a show of bravery, the young man resisted Loki. He raised his finger to the sky and said, ”Sky of stars.”

As he spoke, the surrounding area turned bright with white starlight. A sky of stars appeared just above the young man, producing light that pushed everything aside.

The sky of stars pushed away the black hole, tore it apart from within, and destabilized the Devouring Ability in the area. Then it took over the place of the Devouring Ability in the area before turning the tables against Loki and striking him with the power of stars.

White round stars fell from the sky, striking the ground and Loki. They were tiny stars the size of peas, but they fell to the earth with the power of meteors, striking the ground with so much power that they overturned the earth and created craters everywhere.

At least, this was what was supposed to happen. If it had happened, it would have been magnificent and would have helped the scholarly young man gain victory over his foe.
