Chapter 2206: Inside a Painting IV
The Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi suddenly released his aura all around, but this was more akin to a sonar. A slightly powerful breeze swept across the area and the Greater God Amatsu- Mikaboshi looked at the direction near his right. He saw Levin Cloud muttering some prayers while a frozen part of him is being casted with numerous curses.
The frozen part of the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi is just like a small droplet of his tarlike body that was cut off. It was frozen so that it would not react to the commands of the greater god. It is essentially a dead part of him, but it was enough for Levin Cloud to use as a medium for the curses.
The mana needed to cast the curses might be large because the medium is small, but they were incredibly effective. Out of the ten curses that Levin Cloud used on the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi, about seven of them affected the enemy. Some might have weakened but the curses that overlapped managed to create a synergistic effect that made them function better together.
"Leshy!" The Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi shouted as he finally saw Levin Cloud, but he is still being pinned down by Adrian and the others.
"Since ice seem very effective, freeze everything in my sight! Niflheim!" Peridot stated as she shattered a mythological tier gemstone that contained the ice element.
A powerful freezing frost covered the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi. The liquid or plasma like body that he had suddenly started to freeze over. The Mythological spell Niflheim would have taken longer to cast but sacrificing a precious gemstone made Peridot negate the cast time. The mana needed might have been increased but that is a small price to pay to activate a powerful spell.
The body of the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi stopped in action under five seconds of being hit directly by the spell. This would not have easily happened under normal circumstances, but Levin Cloud made sure that the spells he used would weaken the body of the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi. He did not cast spells that weakened attack power because that would make the enemy notice much faster.
Levin Cloud learned from Creepysoo that curses or hexes must be discreet or else the target would notice immediately. If the target notices immediately then the curse or hex would be dispelled earlier. Curses and hexes are more effective when the target does not know that they have been afflicted with it. They are magic that grows powerful as time goes on but is weak at the first instance of it being applied.
The four of them saw the ice sculpture that was the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi, but they did not think that they have won. If they had won, then they would have received a notification that told them that they have killed the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi. All of Adrian's soulbounds started preparing for the attack as soon as the enemy gets released from his frozen state.
Peridot and Frey also did start charging for their next attacks as well. Levin Cloud continued with chanting the curses as he could still feel the vibrant life force of the Greater God Amatsu- Mikaboshi. They have not won, and they will never be caught off guard again because the atmosphere inside was tense. They did not attack when the enemy became frozen as any external stimuli would break the status condition.
The frozen figure of the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi suddenly started to shake as the frozen status started to be cleansed. A dark like matter suddenly formed below the ice sculpture that was the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi. This dark like matter looked like oil but it was not liquid nor solid. It looked like the dark starless sky was suddenly summoned below the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi.
With a loud crack, the body of the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi is released from its frozen state. All of the soulbounds with Frey and Peridot launched their prepared attacks in the area. Numerous chaotic dark tendrils shot out of the frozen body as if they broke the ice itself to get released. Ten chaotic dark tendrils came for each of them as if they had a mind of their own. Some of them plunged onto the mysterious puddle of darkness below the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi.
The Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi's attack did not reach any of them as they easily blew away the ten tendrils that attempted kill them. All of them thought that they have successfully countered the attack, but Levin Cloud shouted in shock. It is not that he was hit by an attack, but it was the frozen cut off part of the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi that was destroyed. The numerous tendrils to attack them were merely a way to do his real objective. "Applying a curse to me! A being made of chaos energy! I shall show you real terror!" The Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi shouted, and he was now incredibly serious this time unlike before.
[The Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi is releasing his true body.]
[Those with lower divinity must not look directly towards him or risk becoming mad.]
The remaining frozen parts of the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi suddenly burst into shards as he released himself from the torment of ice. He pulled something out of the puddle of darkness, and it was none other than a distorted mask. It looked like a bigger version of the mask he used when he used the body of a demigod.
A large eerie masked floated and a body made of shadows possessed it. The Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi's true body was a floating mask with a body made up of eerie shadows. He did not have a torso as it was just an eerie head that has numerous chaotic dark claws floating around him. The Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi could no longer resist destroying everything as he believed that the enemies around him will not let him go easily.
"I just need to destroy everything else with my entire power! Let us see if you could restrict me in this form, snake goddess!" The Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi shouted, and the Goddess Nuwa is indeed having a difficult time.
The Goddess Nuwa started to burn more divine energy just trying to suppress the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi. She tried her best, but she was suddenly hit by a wave of divine energy from inside the painting. It seems that the divine sense of the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi released a powerful burst of mental energy which made the Goddess Nuwa faint for a few seconds.
One would say that a few seconds would not be enough, but it is for a greater god that assumed his true form. As soon as the Goddess Nuwa fainted, the Greater God Amatsu- Mikaboshi released his wrath onto the four inside the painting. The first one that he attacked is none other than Levin Cloud as his curses were still affecting him despite being in his true
form.
"I shall start with your head!" The Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi stated as the inside of the painting is dyed in darkness.
The entire area is suddenly covered by the darkness of the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi. Adrian felt the chill and immediately shouted them to retreat but sound itself was silenced when the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi appeared in his true form. Adrian created mirrors to transport the others away as he felt the danger. All the mirrors that Adrian created were suddenly struck quickly by shadow tendrils that came out of the darkness.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The entire area is suddenly the extension of the body of the Greater God Amatsu-Mikaboshi. It was not just Adrian's mirrors that were destroyed as some of his soulbounds screamed in pain as they were also hit. All of his soulbounds were attacked sneakily to the point that even they did not notice. The larger soulbounds were easily damaged due to their size with Kanlaon as an example.
The large golden body of Kanlaon became a hindrance to him as he was riddled with spikes made from the chaotic darkness around them. Adrian checked to see the health bar of his team members and is shocked to see them dipping directly to the red. Since their voice was silenced, Adrian did not know how all of them suddenly became incredibly close to dying. It seems that even the chat option was blocked due to the darkness around. Adrian looked behind him and saw Charon and Dodu behind him as they were actually blocking a large spike of chaotic darkness from piercing him from the back. Adrian suddenly felt his entire body become cold as he was so close to also getting pierced. Just like Adrian, the others were also attacked the same way that he was. The only problem is not all of them had
soulbounds protecting them.
Peridot was directly hit but her heart was not pierced. Frey's pegasus suddenly summoned itself to push her away from the attack. Her mount died in the process of protecting her master, but this is a skill called Mount's Bond which could make the mount save their master from certain danger. Levin Cloud is the only one of them that was pierced directly but he did not have a human heart which is why he did not die.
