The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 2021: Race Evolution (1)

In a normal ascension, a mortal was raised to become through having their divine spaces opened by the associated God they won over. A process that took time, and even after the connection was made, the newly turned Demigod would still need to train to sense their divine space and tapped into immortal energy.

Every single living being has a divine space, but most would have it closed until their deaths.

Only those who were born within the God Realm could skip this part.

Instead of having a God open their divine space, the God Realm itself opened it.

And thus, the opening was even smoother with no downside.

Rex, though not born within the God Realm, walked the path of those who were born in the God Realm.

All because he went through the unconventional means to become a Demigod and had his divine space opened through rigorous training, even without the help of a God. In his case, it was more like he was a self-made Demigod.

His understanding of things was rough, but his body was incredibly ready to become a true Demigod.

Upon locating his divine space, Aylith saw that it was already open.

Slowly, her translucent form manifested within an endless darkness, which was Rex’s divine space, one that reflected that his life had been painful and traumatic. She looked and realized that his divine space was not only open, but matured.

It was the reason why he seemed to already be a Demigod.

’I’ve never heard of a mortal stealing the power of a God...’ Aylith thought inside, inspecting the entire divine space to realize that it was vast—and sturdy. Mature. ’I know my children are still naïve when it comes to their godly powers, but this should not happen. Not only can he do the impossible, but he also knew things that a mortal shouldn’t know.

’He’s a Scion of Vertex, but he’s relatively new, and the other Scions aren’t known to be helpful.’

Everything around Rex was a mystery.

He was an enigma that Aylith couldn’t quite peer through, and that alone was quite endearing and scary.

Once she settled in, she stretched both her arms and then channelled the divinity that was being siphoned into her from Mayar. A brilliant silvery light shot out from her palms—the energy gathered and swirled, turning into a massive sphere.

Aylith kept going, kept pouring more, kept on lighting up Rex’s divine space.

It gradually grew in size.

She kept feeding it until it swelled to almost the size of the entire divine space—a silver sphere blotting out the boundaries of darkness. Once satisfied, she pressed her palms together and twisted. The colossal orb began to condense rapidly and violently, folding inward under her will.

And its form, which was entirely made of energy, began to turn solid.

From intangible to tangible.

It didn’t take long before a sizeable moon manifested.

Aylith panted slightly as it had been a very long time since she channelled her dominion over the greater moon like this. But even then—she was quite satisfied with how it turned out. Her eyes bore witness to a sizable silver moon that shifted from phase to phase at a fixed interval.

From new, waxing, full, and then waning.

Outside, Rex felt what was happening inside as clear as the full moon against the cloudless night sky.

A bloated, invasive pressure swelled inside him as if he had consumed something too vast for his body to contain. It churned in his gut badly, nauseating and hot—and he fought the urge to vomit the insides of his stomach.

Just then, the first seat of silver light broke through his skin.

It came in flickers, then in waves.

Swish—!

His flesh began to seethe with a sharp, metallic glow that crawled up his arms and spread like oil over water. The seething became steam, then smoke, and then a raging fire. A wild, dancing corona of silver that blazed from every inch of his body.

Even his crimson eyes were devoured by the light, replaced by burning orbs of liquid silver.

A pair that gleamed like polished blades.

Through the silver haze, the System’s notifications pierced into his vision.

Rex watched the percentage rise as his body was overwhelmed by the surge of divinity from within.

And then, once the percentage reached one hundred percent, a shockwave detonated from his core.

Boom—!

An expanding ring of silver force that tore outward and shook the broken Sovereign Realm erupted, a savage display of ascension and power. His body remained in a meditative position, but it slowly began to rise, being lifted from the ground by an invisible force.

Once he was suspended mid-air, his body erupted completely with divinity and was engulfed by it.

Swoosh—!

”RAARGH!!”

Mayar roared at the top of his lungs as his form was already translucent, disappearing.

Even his soul thrashed against the confines of his failing body.

He was becoming more desperate and decided to burn every single thing in order to break free. But the Uncrowned Matron of Ire was ready. She shifted her grip and caught the escaping soul that was peeling away from the fleshy body back into place.

Even though she seemed to be calm, her hand trembled ever so slightly as she confined Mayar.

It was clear that there was resistance, but she held.

His divinity had almost been drained by the blood circle ritual—and in a few seconds, the last remaining of his being disappeared from sight. His physical form that held all of his divinity evaporated, and this overflowed divinity into the blood circle formation.

It was to the point that the formation cracked like glass.

Rex had already anticipated this. He knew that the divinity of a God would be too much to contain.

But that was the reason why he added the Fake Core of Immortality.

Knowing that the blood circle formation that he made to commence the First Blood Claim Ritual was a rushed product, considering he needed it done quickly as Mayar was on his throat, he knew that it would not hold much divine energy.

Even with that in mind, the formation still eventually cracked.

And soon, it would break and the divinity would be devoured by the God Realm.

It would be really bad, but even though that was the case, Rex’s lips were curling into a maniacal smile.

He has a solution.
