Chereads / Way Of The Darkness / Chapter 104 - The First

Chapter 104 - The First

Crimson Python slowly approached Xue Mo to swear allegiance to him. Since it surrendered, it thought, 'He won't hurt me since I'm about to be his subordinate, right?' After almost reaching Xue Mo, the Crimson Python, known as the Beast Lord of Endros, bowed its head in acknowledgment of Xue Mo being its master.

Xue Mo also got close to the Crimson Python before him. Not letting his guard down, Xue Mo approached slowly unless the Crimson Python gets bold and sneak attacks him.

Just as Xue Mo was in the range, the Devouring flames suddenly extended under Xue Mo's command and struck the Crimson Python in front of it on the head.

Surprised, Crimson Python didn't expect Xue Mo to suddenly attack since he thought he became Xue Mo subordinate; why would he attack him, the last thing Crimson Python thought before getting struck with the chains, 'Oh Sh*t?!!'

Xue Mo looked at the Crimson Python that has been coiled around and bound by his Inferno Devouring chains, Xue Mo increased the strength he is holding the Python with, before starting his plan.

Xue Mo had suddenly thought of a great plan. Why make some low-grade undead with no intelligence? With his vast knowledge of anatomy, Xue Mo can create unknown creatures with set evolutionary paths. These creatures will stay under his command forever, and since he will be their creator, he will also be their one and only master. Still, Xue Mo didn't want just to limit himself to many creatures; he wanted top-grade subordinates he can use that and not just some high number of undead with weak powers.

After hearing what Lu Yao said about Infinite Darkness learning only to release what's needed from it, Xue Mo wanted to see what Infinite Darkness can do himself, and test just how much it had truly learned.

"Infinite Darkness, make me a technique that can revive, control, and strengthen, but keep the undead an undead." Xue Mo's command was vague on purpose since he wanted to see if Infinite Darkness had truly learned and started becoming more efficient or only learned how to shorten and display some information.

========================

Infinite Darkness

Sub Tab*

Skills:

[combining Chaos Harmony Scripture, Manifest, Blood Control, 'Units' data, Blood nourishing technique, and Death Call]= Reborn

By combining Manifest the method to turn the dead into undead as the base and extract other compatible and incompatible techniques, then adding what can be inserted into it, the skill Reborn has been Created.

Reborn: A skill that can create chimera's of undead under the user's control. These Chimera's will have the ability of SSP energy, increasing their death and darkness affinity, with Blood Control and Blood nourishing technique, the Chimera will be eternally loyal to the user. Death call will allow the Chimera's thinking and learn along the way while retaining the dominant personality of the creature. Thanks to 'Units' Data and Chaos Harmony Scripture with enough compatible nutrients, the undead will have a low chance to develop into higher grades of undead. And the Chaos Harmony Scripture added the ability also to add opposite attributes into the undead, for example, Holy and Dark elements cannot hurt the undead. If the Chimera gets the attributes and instead it can get them. (Proficiency will increase the power and characteristics of the skill {More qualities and abilities can automatically be added in the future}, current proficiency (0/0)

========================

Xue Mo stared at what's in front of him, and for some unknown reason only he knew if he laughed, Xue Mo laughed for a long time before stopping.

He stared at the black status screen again, seeing that he didn't imagine things, Xue Mo muttered "Amazing!" Xue Mo had only given a fake explanation to Infinite Darkness to test its capabilities. How much it had improved but never did Xue Mo expect to witness this much advancement, Infinite Darkness has advanced enough to create a technique, a skill better than he imagined. However, the theoretical knowledge came from him, the data, and what methods to use were all up to Infinite Darkness. For it to not only create a new and advanced skill like Reborn but also add abilities and usable skills that can enhance it by itself in the future, it meant that Xue Mo wouldn't need to try to upgrade it actively. But what truly caught Xue Mo's eyes was the added proficiency feature. Instead of having to waste SSP energy repeatedly to upgrade it, the proficiency that he will get from practicing the skill will automatically improve his ability and make it more powerful as he gets better at using it.

Although Xue Mo doubted that this is a one time thing, he believed that it happened because of the distinctive characteristics that make up the skill. As not only are Cultivation Techniques made up of this skill, but magic spells too, this means that there is an actual way to combine both Magic and Cultivation.

This skill opens a new path to Xue Mo and Lu Yao; they wouldn't need to cultivate Magic and Cultivation separately. Still, they can even combine them if they can combine Cultivation and Magic, who knows what they can also mix in the future. Xue Mo and Lu Yao are still in a relatively weak and unknown world, so it may have the lowest energies and methods in existence. So maybe after exploring more worlds and realms, later on, they might be able to get even more powers and techniques than they thought they would get.

Xue Mo stared at the bound unconscious Crimson Python, "You are about to be Reborn." After saying that, Xue Mo immediately increased his hold on the Crimson Python.

*Crack*

A cracking sound rang out from the Crimson Python, swiftly killing it.

Since Reborn was a Magic Cultivation combination, Xue Mo had to mutter a spell to start it.

"From the ashes of mortality, you will be Reborn. No longer, aline, no longer dead. You are now Reborn. Arise, Chimera." Xue Mo muttered the spell while activating the Reborn skill, urging it to turn Crimson Python into a Chimera.

Energy surged and left Xue Mo's body, heading towards the dead body of Crimson Python. Before nearing the body, it stopped as if something isn't allowing it to enter.

Xue Mo has been staring at the process of creating his first useful subordinate with concentrated eyes, seeing the process suddenly stop confused him, 'Why did it stop? Wait, the technique said Chimera, a combination of creatures and not just one.' Xue Mo figured out that the process stopped for the lack of 'materials.'

Xue Mo and Lu Yao hadn't used all the Magma Beast remains, and what Lu Yao was experimenting on was only a vial of the three bottles that they had.

Xue Mo opened his space ring and took out bodies of several corpses. Amongst them were Sakamoto, Giorno, and Dio.

Along with the two remaining Magma Beast liquid, Xue Mo threw the materials over the Crimson Pythons corpse, making a tiny copse hill.

Finding more Materials to work with, the energy continued its way to the Corpse hill and started permeating it.

After getting ahold of all the bodies in front of it, the energy started breaking everything apart.

Bones cracked, and flesh was ripped off.

Staring at the gory scene, Xue Mo felt nothing while Lu Yao was amused, watching it as if she wanted to see more.

Xue Mo shook his head lightly with a smile on his face signifying that he also likes seeing the process and how it happens.

Xue Mo and Lu Yao, while being immersed in their future torture fantasies, were still keeping an eye on the Chimera 'Creation' process.

After breaking everything apart, the energy combined parts. The two vials of Magma Beast's remains were broken open. They were now slowly infused around the bones of the Chimera, with the bodies of the three most powerful existences among humans in the Ash Expanse and the Beast Lord of Endros Crimson Python, the Chimera was created.

A creature with a snake skeleton as the base, six bone arms of different sizes started merging with it and creating a grotesque sight. With the two vials of Magma Beast remaining going to the empty eye socket and taking place, the Chimera was created.

Seeing that the legs were discarded didn't disappoint Xue Mo since legs will only obstruct the snake's body from slithering more efficiently. But seeing the hands popping out of the Snake's back as if they were wings surprised Xue Mo since it looked like the hands can get stuck together and separate easily.

After the Chimera's creation was completed, it opened its eyes, filled with two glowing liquids, it looked grotesque and abominable. Still, Xue Mo and Lu Yao didn't mind; since this is the best form it can have, with Xue Mo growing Reborn's proficiency and getting better at using it, the result will surely be better next time.

Staring at its master, the Chimera bowed its head. Xue Mo stared at the Chimera before him. He knew that it wouldn't be able to speak since it's only made of bones, but he believed with time and more parts and upgrades this situation will change.

"You are the first. You have been Reborn into a greater existence than you were before. With a new identity, you will get a new name.

From now forth you shall be known as Hesroth, the first Chimera." Although bones, the intelligence Hesroth has wasn't low, and it bowed it's his head in acknowledgment.

That's how Hesroth, the first Chimera undead, was reborn into existence.
