Chapter 96 Environmental Scaling And Transcendental Bearing VII

"You think because we have these powers, we are not ordinary? You think we are extraordinary!!You think we are different from everyone?! Wrong!!! This is just the mortal realm, there are many places with beings far stronger than I am!!"

"....."

He roared out in anger, as all the anger and frustrations he accumulated was unleashed right there and then. He them continued, as he saw Enigma's silence.

"That naivity of yours will one day become your downfall. We are not special, never were and never will be!!! There is still, and will always be someone greater than you out there!!!" He ended his outburst by pulling out the air from the battleground once again.

'Old man, it's been two weeks.' Enigma retorted in his thoughts, tired of hearing these rants again and again, but right now, he had much bigger problems to solve.

The old senior made sure that every hint of air was gone, thus restricting movement itself. Without air, movement through the molecules within the air was cut off.

Oxygen supply was also cut off. But what he expected did not happen. Unless one was an ascendency true god equivalent, they were still part Mortal. Even the deities such as ancient deities still had 1% mortality within them.

In other words, 1% of their body still relied on oxygen and mortal needs. But unfortunately for him, true gods were born with 100% spirituality. Even as godlins, they could live without food, water or oxygen.

Only their body and soul were limited, not their entire being. So Enigma responded with a smile, one so pure that it almost blinded the poor beggar.

"You're wrong senior." His body suddenly began to break down slowly, the broken down pieces were shattered into highly concentrated lightning particles as they moved back to reattach themselves to his being.

"I did not base my words on the strength we have. In fact, I know of people far stronger than you can imagine. My aunt herself is one of them, so how am I naive?"

He spoke casually, and freely, without much worry, or taking any offense to the old seniors words that he spoke.

"Senior, I Don't know what you're running away from, or what reality you're trying to escape. But let me tell you, or rather remind you of something. The difference I mean is that of origin.

"You, are not from this Era, this verse, or any other universe at all. I don't know who brought you over, but senior, we are... abnormalities. Foreigners in simple terms." His body completely broke down and regathered as lightning, then the lightning twisted and shaped itself into a humanoid version of himself.

A being made uo of nothing but pure, and destructive lightning. It was as if, Enigma had just conceptized the very meaning of lightning into himself, snd became it.

[Lightning Conception(Divine) - The user is made up of or can transform their body completely into lightning. A user's transformed form is anatomically identical to their normal form, aside of being made of homogenous matter of lightning, in which case, it contains all the organs and is somewhat vulnerable to attacks. Gain 90% Immunity to physical attacks and 100% Immunity to Lightning]

"...So, you really meant that huh? Then who exactly are you?" The beggar's body suddenly broke down into wind particles, spread out and regathered into a humanoid form as well, looking identical to Enigma, albeit made up of pure wind instead.

[Wind Conception(Divine) - The user is made up of or can transform their body completely into wind. A user's transformed form is anatomically identical to their normal form, aside of being made of homogenous matter of wind, in which case, it contains all to organs and is somewhat vulnerable to attacks. Gain 90% Immunity to physical attacks and 100% Immunity to Wind]

"Regardless of who you are, what you want or whether you an outer or not, the winner takes all!!!" The beggar roared as the rustling wind suddenly became world shaking gales, with roars that could put even ancient dragons to shame.

"Likewise, regardless of who ir what we are, the winner takes all. One more day!!!" Enigma responded with the same enthusiasm as the beggar, not to make the poor guy seem awkward being pumped up all by himself.

He then looked down at the corner of his eyes, peaking at the system notification that told him of his Adaptation Progress. And it was still adapting to ancients;

"Adaptation Progress(Ancient being): 99%"

'Another half a day and I can be considered to have enough strength to defeat an ancient being without [Environmental Scaling].' He thought as he charged towards the beggar, who also charged towards him.

Their speed going far beyond the literal meaning of light, as just their movement alone, seemed to have halted time itself. No, time was still flowing as it usually does.

The river of Time was vastly thick, but these two's speed was also insane. They traveled so fast, time seemed to have slowed down within their perception!!

"Ting!! R7-Devastating Lightning has become R8-Revotionary Lightning"

"Ting!! R6-Destructive Wind has become R7-Destructive Wind"

'Already? Didn't they get promoted five days ago? I guess this battle is just that intense.' Unfortunately, even under such circumstances, one would not expect them to promote once.

But a monster like Enigma promoted one element from R6 to R8 and another from R5 to R7 with just two weeks of fighting. And this was because he only used those two, if he had used any more...

BOOOM!!!

BOOOM!!!

BOOOM!!!

Consecutive explosions resounded throughout the World Forest region like a never ending thunderstorm. The past two weeks were fine, but it seemed like the fight was just getting started.

On Nia's side, within two weeks, they covered 1 000 miles, and were only one third away from reaching their destination. Soquel gazed back as she saw that the lightning and wind had intensified.

Almost reaching them, 2 000 miles away. They could feel the sparks of lightning slithering around their soroundings and the wind blowing at their hair and clothes as if a gale was right besides them

"Wonders are... frightening existences." She murmured to herself before shaking her head to clear her thoughts of the fight. "Mother, we are leaving."

She bowed to Nia, besides her was Sear and Sion, who also knelt before Nia as well. They were almost close to their destination, with their current speed, they were a week away.

But that was because they were quite relaxed with their pace. With the weakest being an expert, even with the luggage, they could cover the distance within half a day. But there was no reason for that.

But for a greater deity, one who was a highest grade Chosen, could cover the distance within less than a minute with the speed of Deity Kings. The four sisters just so happened to be one of them.

"Hm." Nia nodded. She then added on, "You are not going there to start trouble alright? These people are Enigma's people, meaning your future clan mates, remember to treat them kindly regardless of their strength or race.

"Just go there and let them know about our visit, alerting them beforehand is better than just barging there with ten thousand dark elves. Do you understand?"

" " " Yes. " " "

The three ladies bowed once again before rising up and flying away. Their speed was incredible, Far greater than the speed of sound, as none of them were in that much of a rush.

"With this, those kids can have seven days to prepare themselves of our visit. Come on, rest time is over, let's move on." She called out and lead the group forward.

With her two meter tall staff and black robes covering her body, she looked no different from herding black sheeps from afar. But these black sheep's could could destroy an entire small world even without the help of the four greater deities and Nia.

They were not to be looked down upon.

Meanwhile, Enigma and the unknown beggar continued to battle it out. Enigma was fighting for the progression of the [Environmental Scaling] at first, but now, he was genuinely curious what this ancient being was so afraid of.

As for the beggar, he realised that Enigma was a tough opponent. Enigma's lightning was below his power at first, but now, they were at a standstill. And the boy still had wind law that was almost as powerful as his.

The more he fought Enigma, the more he realised that the boy was truly out of this world even compared to him. Even his peers from back home could not compare to him, let alone him, who was far less talented compared to them.

"I think that's about enough, senior. I should probably be going." Enigma thought as he did not even wait for the beggar to say anything, instead, his bearing changed all of a sudden.
