Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!-Chapter 974 Planet-Devouring Serpent
Chapter 974 Planet-Devouring Serpent
At the end of the day, Michael acquired 10ml of Origin Liquid in exchange for two 7-Star Soultraits and another 5-Star Soultrait. Each Soultrait was customized according to Sylth's requirements and thus a little bit more expensive to upgrade. However, the overall investment wasn't too high compared to his gains.
Two hundred droplets of Origin Liquid.
[Slyth Thorn: Rest assured. The Soultrait Symbols will stay in our family. We will attack the Supreme Human Alliance occasionally and conquer a few planetary systems if possible. But to remind you again, our main focus will be to attack the Supreme Human Alliance's powerhouses. We will stealthily strike and kill some of their Divine Lifeforms.]
Michael was fine with her commentary, but it wasn't like he trusted her with anything important. Her message might sound sincere, but the message, or even spoken words, didn't have any meaning in certain situations. Slyth Thorn could be lying because her words weren't binding like a Soul Pact. But that was fine. At this point, he was already stronger than Sylth, and it was only a matter of time before his combat prowess exceeded the power level of the Thorn Merchandise.

If he continued fighting like this, Michael would advance to a Tier-8 powerhouse in a few years. The time frame could be affected and decreased to mere months if Michael swallowed an entire planetary system using Jormungandr's Divinity to use Swallow Domain multiple times before repetitively applying Permute to transform everything he'd swallowed into pure and highly compressed energy.
Michael could study Origin Liquid and replicate it in a few months, maybe sooner. If he ever considered creating thousands of Super Awakened instead of a batch of two hundred, he decided to do that.
Either way, Michael wasn't so sure what to focus on. He didn't pay much attention to the civilians of the Supreme Human Alliance until this point, but that didn't mean he desired to kill billions – if not trillions – of innocent Hyumans to advance to Tier-8 faster than expected. In the first place, Michael didn't know what would happen to the massive space left behind if he devoured an entire planetary system.
How would the Galaxy react to the loss of an entire planetary system? Michael chose to test it on a smaller scale, using Swallow Domain on a particular planet in the Novix Galaxy. The planet was in the Supreme Human Alliance's territory, but not a single Hyuman could be found in the entire planetary system. A highly toxic gas, infused with energy that evolved and augmented the toxin, filled the entire planetary system. Michael used True Extraction Domain to absorb the energy within the gas and Permute it to curse power supplied to Jormungandr. The curse power he supplied might not be enough to offset the power needed to use his Divinity and swallow an entire planet made of the highly toxic – mana-infused – gas.
The planet, if physical and suitable to be civilized, would be large enough to hold more than a hundred billion Normies, but it was made of highly toxic gas that spread in the surrounding planetary systems, slowly killing them. That being said, Michael's action would rescue the surrounding planetary systems. He might be unable to rescue this planetary system as it was more than just dead, but that mattered little. Nobody expected anything from this planetary system, other than pain and suffering, anymore either way.
Michael stayed a few weeks in the planetary system to collect enough energy to use Jormungandr's Divinity. He waited eagerly for the upcoming event, but swallowing and the entire planet filled with mana-infused gas was not as exciting as Michael had hoped.
Jormungandr's presence disappeared from his insides for a moment, and it appeared before him. The rest he saw was a massive serpent shooting toward the gaseous planet. The darkish-green scaled serpent expanded with every second passing, yet Jormungandr didn't grow enough to devour the gaseous planet in one go. Still, it devoured a big chunk of its body and continued moving. Jormungandr coiled around the planet as he expanded, growing into a serpent that was tens, if not more than a hundred thousand kilometers long at some point. The amount of Divinity used to maintain its form – without killing Michael by accidentally melting his body – was drastic. The biggest problem was probably Michael's Primordial Vessel consuming half, if not three-quarters, of the Divinity used by Jormungandr to form the Divinity Seed and the fact that Michael's body wasn't made to endure the potency of Divinities.
Still, Michael and Jormungandr prevailed. It was painful, but the combined efforts of a God Curse and several high-ranked Soultraits, boosted by their Soul Techniques, were enough to keep Michael alive while Jormungandr swallowed the toxic gas planet.
[This was fucking disgusting. I had my fair share of tasting poison, but this toxin is among the worst. It might take me a while to recreate, but that nasty fuck is going to help you deal with some of the most disgusting powerhouses. Combine this gaseous toxin with my curse power, and you can melt everyone with Blood Incursion modifications within seconds. Of course, some will easily block the toxin, but if you use my Basilisk Petrification through Curse Fusion and Seer's Domination, you can kill anyone. Given Basilisk Petrification works.] Jormungandr said.
[Oh, and I won't use my Divinity for a bit. Consuming this planet drained a lot more than expected. I will drain bits of energy from your body for the next few months to recuperate more of my Divinity. After all, we want to be prepared for our first encounter with the Primal, right?]
Michael didn't even think about rejecting Jormungandr. He nodded and focused on transforming the massive amount of toxin gas within the Swallow Domain storage into the purest energy. Michael then applied Unlimited Enhancement with most of his Soul Power and Lifeforce on the Energy Vortex, which went wild. The Energy Vortex worked several times faster than usual once Unlimited Enhancement worked to the fullest. The amount of pure and highly compressed energy within the Swallow Domain Storage was still too much for the Energy Vortex to absorb at once, but the Energy Vortex worked through it rapidly.
Michael traveled through the Novix Galaxy and the Genox Galaxy for the next few months while relying on the Energy Vortex to absorb all energy in the Swallow Domain Storage and push him to the next rank. Simultaneously, Michael observed the Supreme Human Alliance. He wanted to know what they would do after an entire planet's disappearance. Of course, it was only a gaseous, toxic planet, but most would be scared if a planet disappeared just like that.
However, the Supreme Human Alliance didn't seem bothered too much. There was no obvious change in their strategies. With that in mind, Michael started hunting more Hyumans again. He returned to the Origin Expanse for a few days and distributed the Origin Liquid as well. Even the strongest Awakened would have to consume the Origin Liquid with meticulous preparations.
'A year, maybe two…and they will be done. I have two years to prepare enough Soultrait Symbols and SoulStar Fragments to arm two hundred Super Awakened with the most suitable Soultrait Symbols – pushed to a high star rating – to fight the Supreme Human Alliance to death!'
The corner of Percy's lips curled upward.
Two years was more than enough time.
