Chapter 221: Chapter 221: The Embodint Of Negativity – 2
Thousands upon thousands of high demons, servants of the Arch Demons, rushed forward with the sole intention of inflicting every form of pain imaginable, while the Arch Demons themselves, the Demon King, the Seven Deadly Sins, and the Four Horsen of the Apocalypse, watched from afar.
Within seconds, thousands of demons had already reached Damian, releasing every type of attack they possessed.
Hundreds of weapons coated in energy flew toward him, while hundreds of flashes of condensed, destructive power lit up the void, all converging on Damian from every direction.
As if hundreds of thousands of shooting, exploding stars were descending onto the world, every single attack struck the lone high demon.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
Each impact erupted into catastrophic explosions, layer upon layer of devastation erupting in the sa spot.
Waves of pressure and chaotic energy rippled outward, expanding and destroying everything in their path, yet the relentless bombardnt did not cease.
The storm of destruction rained down for more than half an hour without pause.
The Demon King, Lucifer Morningstar, observed with an expression as cold and unreadable as stone, as if what was happening had nothing to do with him.
But inwardly, he sneered. He knew the sadistic and narcissistic high demons were throwing attacks powerful enough to crush even a mid-level god.
Lucifer himself was a being on the level of a God King, while the Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Horsen of the Apocalypse each wielded strength equal to that of high-level gods.
The 72 Pillars of Hell ranged from mid-level to high-level god-tier power.
The other high demons who had responded to the war declaration varied in strength, so were on par with low-level gods, while the rest were below divine rank.
But even those weaker demons could not be dismissed; their sheer numbers alone made them a force capable of threatening even gods.
Together, they were an army that could rival a god in raw destructive might.
The combined assault of thousands of lesser high demons and low-god-tier demons was a force that could seriously harm, even kill, a high-level god, as long as that god wasn’t actively defending themselves.
Lucifer, a dark angel with the power of a God King, was the most ancient angel in existence.
He understood exactly how strong each god in the pantheons was, for his own strength rivaled theirs.
Yet, even with his insight, he could not fully comprehend his master, Damian Ignatius.
Lucifer was certain now, his master was deliberately hiding his true presence, concealing an ocean of power beneath a still surface.
But even that concealed presence was incomprehensible.
Before, he wasn’t sure.
Now, he was.
His master had already surpassed the level of a God King.
Even if hundreds of gods fought him together, they would all be crushed and slaughtered in the end.
“These mindless demons are about to get fucked… I’m so glad I submitted to Master.” Lucifer smiled inwardly as he watched the first wave of attacks finally co to an end after more than thirty minutes of relentless fire.
“As expected,” he snorted inwardly.
The battlefield had been completely devastated.
For hundreds of ters, nothing remained but craters, yet Damian sat there, completely unhard.
And sothing strange was happening around him.
“What the fuck? How is that abomination still alive after all that?” the Knight of Pestilence muttered, his eyes burning with a dark green fla.
“Those fucking weak-ass demons… they can’t do anything right…” the 34th Pillar of Hell snarled through gritted teeth.
The demons realized the bitter truth: those weaker than the 72 Pillars were completely useless against Damian.
The 72 Pillars, well, 71, since Damian himself was one, began releasing a terrifying pressure.
Their power surged like an unsealed floodgate.
“Maybe I’ve been around them too long,” Lucifer thought bitterly.
“I failed to realize just how stupid these demons are… they still don’t understand they’re going to die, even after everything Master has done.”
Lucifer snorted inwardly.
“I can’t believe I surrounded myself with these mongrels.”
He turned his attention back to his master and to the strange phenonon happening around him.
Damian was still sitting cross-legged in the center of the devastated land, surrounded by a do of amber-black energy that radiated a familiar yet violently threatening presence.
The energy felt as if it were Hell itself made manifest.
As a dark angel who had existed in Hell since its creation, Lucifer knew the essence of the realm well, but this was sothing more.
It was as if a miniature Hell had ford around Damian.
Not another Hell, but sothing purer, deeper, and far more dangerous, an energy more significant than Hell itself.
“Damn… what in the primal chaos is Master doing? How does he possess so many different energies? How is he able to do this?”
Lucifer had never felt such frustration.
Damian, of course, knew exactly what his servant was thinking.
In fact, he knew what every single demon who had co in response to his war declaration was thinking, and he was amused.
He didn’t care what was happening outside the do of energy surrounding him.
When the demons attacked earlier, he had created an invisible force field using his telekinesis, preventing their attacks from interfering with his work, [Harvest of Negativity].
Their attacks weren’t even strong enough to require his focus.
Damian had expected more, but it beca painfully clear: any being below god-level was incapable of harming him, even if he didn’t actively defend himself.
Those attacks would have killed a mid-level god and severely injured a high-level god, yet Damian didn’t even need to try.
Ignoring the chaos outside, Damian concentrated fully on his ability: [Harvest of Negativity].
The do of amber-black energy, the phenonon even the oldest demons and dark angels could not comprehend, was the manifestation of the Negativity he was rapidly gathering.
All the negativity in Hell, every trace of malice, hate, despair, it all surged toward Damian, feeding into him, transforming into raw, pure power.
[Negativity is rising]
[Negativity is rising]
[Negativity is rising]
Everything that makes Hell Hell, all that is vile, all that is despairing, all that is corruption, was being drawn into him.
Damian was the only being who had ever, or would ever, achieve perfect attunent with this unique energy, the primordial concept of Negativity itself.
For him, Hell was the perfect place to cultivate, the ideal ground to grow stronger.
He had infinite potential.
No constraints bound him.
No rules applied to him.
Not even the Regulators of the Universe could control his actions.
After all, Damian Ignatius was an anomaly, an error in the system of reality itself.
And even if they could interfere… they wouldn’t.
Because they wanted him to grow.
To grow as much as he possibly could.
Just by being here, he could grow infinitely stronger.
All sinful thoughts, malicious intent, corrupted desire, hatred of the heart, malevolent thinking, twisted reasoning, inner decay, moral rot, blackened souls, vile ambitions, wrathful impulses, jealous yearning, envy-driven motives, obsessive resentnt, cruel fascinations, everything that made Hell Hell gathered in essence.
These were formless, bodiless entities, existing only as intent, thoughts, and raw essence.
But under the power of his ability, they were rapidly being transford into an energy known as [Negativity Essence].
Ignoring the god-level attacks crashing against his telekinetic shield, he continued to absorb the transford energy.

[4th Infinity Ring formation has begun]
Inside his dantian, three golden rings represented his unique cultivation path, and now, behind the third Infinity Ring, a fourth manifested, slightly larger than the third.
[You have broken through]
[You have ford your 4th Infinity Ring]
Inside the do, along with the amber-black energy, an intense golden light covered his figure, but no demon was able to see it.
Damian felt his strength rapidly growing.
[Your Physical Attributes have increased: 75]
It didn’t stop. Damian continued to absorb the endless negativity, his energy reserves surging higher.
Not long after, another series of prompts appeared in front of his eyes:

[You have ford your 7th Infinity Ring]
[Your Physical Attributes have increased: 225]
But his body wasn’t the only thing evolving at an insane rate, his mind was also transforming, and perhaps this growth surpassed even his [Infinity Cultivation].
When Damian used his [Harvest of Negativity], all the negativity in Hell gathered around him.
That ant everything that made up negativity, everything evil, vile, malevolent, or nefarious, and every sin, ca to his eyes and mind like an open book.
He could feel everything the billions upon billions of damned souls in Hell felt.
He could see everything those souls had done when they were alive that had condemned them here.
Every sin.
Every vile act.
He felt as if he had actually lived them.

…

.
Every single law that represented negativity, every law that had existed since the creation of life itself and the birth of Hell, Damian comprehended them all.
And in re minutes, he had pushed each to its limit.
In his mind, it felt like millions of nuclear bombs had detonated, but instead of destruction, they unleashed endless information, endless understanding.
It was as if the truth of negativity itself had been revealed to him.
At that mont, Damian knew: if he wished, he could ascend to godhood instantly.
But he didn’t.
He still wanted more, there were still things he intended to claim before becoming a god.
