Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon-Chapter 1181 - 1178: Inner Battle
[This Bonus chapter is thanks to PrimordialParagon.]
-----
Pamela was not the only person that was observing Corey.
The Paragon Ancestor, Supreme Ancestor, and beings that the gods of the universe could not even compare to were also watching Corey.
Some of them were already aware of Corey's presence, and some with more powerful unique senses perceived the aura of Prince Zakar'el's heart.
The aura it sent throughout reality was baffling to many of them who had no idea about a race called the Letherions.
However, the crux of the matter was that Corey was being observed by beings that could kill him with a mere fraction of a thought.
There was only one reason why these beings had not descended into the Forge to figure out what Prince Zakar'el's heart truly was...
The Defying Paragon
A few who had no idea that Corey was being observed by both the Defying Paragon and All Father attempted to descend into the Forge, but after the Defying Paragon nearly killed three of these beings with a mere wave of his hand, every single one of these beings knew that Corey was being watched the Ancestor of Paragons.
When they also found out that the All Father was observing Corey, they were utterly terrified and bewildered.
Who was Corey?
And what was going on?
For the attention of the Defying Paragon and the All Father to be on a mortal, it meant that something about the mortal could shake the very foundations of reality.
"What a crazy bastard." The Paragon Ancestor said with a light smile as he watched the true battle that was going on in Corey.
Although Pamela could not see the true battle that was going on inside Corey, it was a testament to her unfathomable talent in rune mastery that she could see the runes trying to show her a portion of the battle.
Meanwhile, after the first explosion that utterly destroyed his physical body, Corey thought he had died.
No
He had truly died.
His death was so quick and instant to the point that he could not react to it in the slightest, and although it sent a chill into his heart and soul, he was not surprised by it.
What he had done was pure madness.
Choosing to devour the living beating heart of the Prince of the Letherions, who was a step away from reaching the height of the Paragon Ancestor... was pure madness.
It was a miracle his mortal body had not instantly exploded when he devoured the heart.
However, what truly felt like exploding was his mind, spirit, and soul.
The Letherions were more of a metaphysical race than a bodily race. They had weak physiques, and Corey felt more pressure in his mind than in his body.
Though, that was not to say that the pressure on his body was little. It was a lot, and his body would have exploded later on because of the immense energy the heart contained.
Corey's body was already under so much strain after he devoured the Prince's heart.
But when he drank the blood essence of the All Father, his body instantly shattered into pieces.
And he died... for a moment.
Amongst the countless simulations he had done in the past regarding what would happen once he tried to absorb the blood of the Supreme Ancestor and the heart of Prince Zakar'el, death was something he greatly expected.
And there was only one method by which he could survive.
His Undying Will. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
----
[Undying Will- The body, spirit, and soul of the possessor of this will cannot be erased entirely unless all three are destroyed at the exact same moment.]
----
Because of the dissonance between himself and Undying Will, he has not been able to truly bring out the full potential of his unique Will.
But after going through so many dangerous and brutal trainings for his Will, and most importantly, after his battle with the Heavenly Executor, the dissonance had drastically decreased.
When he consumed the heart of Prince Zakar'el, and the blood essence of the All Father, the Paragon blood flowing through his veins reacted fiercely to the sudden appearance of two other powerful bloodlines.
Especially the blood essence of the Supreme Ancestor.
It was this battle between the three bloodlines that shattered his body, and it did not only shatter his body, it also shattered his spirit and it nearly shattered his Cosmic Soul.
Once again, his Cosmic Soul was what saved him from instant death.
If his body, spirit, and soul were destroyed at the same time, then his Undying Will would not have been able to save him.
But because his Cosmic Soul remained, his Undying Will attempted to restore back his body and his spirit.
And that was when Corey woke up in a different world.
He was lying down on a barren and cracked ground, and when he got up and looked around, he realized that he was in a barren and desolate world.
The ground was dry, cracked, and dark as far as he could see.
He could see some mountains in the distance, and he could see massive craters, ravines that had magma flowing in between, and incomprehensible tornadoes in the distance.
He looked behind him, and he saw that there was a cave behind him.
A mountain was behind him, and he frowned in confusion.
"Where am I?"
RUMBLE!!!
The entire world rumbled, and Corey looked up.
The moment he did, his eyes widened in immense disbelief.
He could see three beings battling in the sky, and the moment he saw these beings, he instantly recognized them.
'The Paragon Ancestor? The Supreme Ancestor? And Prince Zakar'el?'
Corey could see the face of the Paragon Ancestor clearly, but for the faces of the Supreme Ancestor and Prince Zakar'el, he could not see their faces.
It was blurry, and no matter how much he tried, it remained that way.
"What in the-"
Before he could complete his words, the Paragon Ancestor charged at the Supreme Ancestor with a black chain in his hands.
The Supreme Ancestor had nothing but his fists, and the moment fists met chains, a shockwave so powerful, it rocked the entire world and shattered the mountain behind Corey.
Bang!
"Arrggh!"
The shockwave slammed Corey into the mountain, and it shattered every single bone in him, and just as he was about to die, the mountain crumbled into pieces and he instantly died.
This was when the second explosion occurred.
