Chapter 671 In my soul
Even though he could no longer see, feel or hear a single thing, Erste\'s heart had no fear. As long as his consciousness exists he will not fall.
Erste did not know how long he had been going deeper into the water, but he finally saw something different. There were two bodies floating side by side. Erste was able to identify one of the floating bodies it was the New God Re\' Khe Hata that he had killed, as for the other one he also looked familiar.
Erste was able to come closer to the two bodies, once he was close enough he could finally feel his body and move it. Erste extended his hand to touch the body of the New God Re\' Khe Hata and once he did he could feel an immense power trying to merge with him.
Not only was he absorbing the power of the New God Re\' Khe Hata but he was also gaining an understanding of the power he was absorbing.
\'So this is mana... There\'s also the authority to control flames... Heh, that guy even in the end underestimated me, with his authority, he could have easily destroyed everything. Well it doesn\'t really matter now, I\'m the winner and he was the loser. Still, this power called mana is way more flexible than the authority.\'
...
The moment the other incarnations saw this part of the story they finally couldn\'t help themselves as they had questions.
"Wait a minute that means killing those New Gods gives us powers?" Michael raised his hands and asked.
"Back then that was the only way to gain mana, we haven\'t created the world tree yet so yeah." The Original Incarnation spoke as he shrugged his shoulders.
"I don\'t know about the other incarnations but I have killed hundreds upon hundreds of New Gods, but I never felt their power surging into me. If I was able to absorb their power while I was fighting I\'m sure that I wouldn\'t have died back then."
"Well, like I said defeating the New Gods was the only way humans could\'ve gained the power of mana, but after a while, it stops working. Mana or any spiritual power is linked to one\'s soul, which is why all of you my incarnations grow almost infinitely as long as you are alive. Back then I have nearly annihilated all New Gods, Old Gods, and halved the Ancient Gods. If not for the ORIGIN interfering with my massacring those b*stards I would\'ve already wiped all the so-called Gods from existence!"
The Original Incarnation\'s power burst out of his body as the vicious smile on his face that was usually filled with battle intent was now filled with anger. The foreign souls in the soul realm, as well as some of the weaker incarnations, could not handle the power that burst out of the Original Incarnation and were now kneeling on the ground.
The foreign souls were one thing but even some of the incarnations of the Strongest Mortal Soul were affected. This was surprising as even the weakest incarnation who had died young after protecting what he wanted to protect was strong enough to crush New Gods, but right now it took almost all of his strength just to stay conscious.
After several seconds of his aura slightly leaking the Original Incarnation was finally able to calm himself down.
"Sorry about that, I guess I got a little emotional since we were talking about the past. Now to answer your question, the reason why you didn\'t get any kind of power up after killing numerous New Gods is because there\'s nothing to gain from them. Our soul which we all share has already consumed Authorities from Ancient Gods and even some that I stole from the ORIGIN itself."
The Original Incarnation shrugged his shoulders as he chuckled.
"Basically to those of you that understand gaming terms, all incarnations are already at the max level in regards to hunting divinity so we can\'t get any more experience for killing those things, but it does help hone our technique fighting such beings so I guess in a way there is still something to gain from them..."
The Original Incarnation then became quiet for a few seconds seemingly deep in thought, but after that, he continued what he was saying.
"Still, for any of you to get stronger was simply to wait as power will eventually fill the body of whoever the current incarnation is. This is the main reason as to why we are called the Strongest Mortal Soul, since despite being mortal our soul houses Thousand of Gods. Of course, the power I\'m talking about is simply the stats of one\'s body like strength, agility, mana, those kinds of things, but as for technique that is different that is one thing that you guys needed to fill on your own. Fortunately, all of you strived to better yourselves in that regard. So overall the way for any incarnation to get stronger is for him to wait for time to pass for the longer we live the stronger we become and of course, if you hone your techniques then you can become stronger faster than the other incarnations."
Listening to the Original Incarnation\'s explanation they now understood that their strength, agility, dexterity, endurance, and mana were equal in this spirit realm despite some of them dying earlier than others, since they should have already absorbed the power of their own soul. So the only thing that differentiates their overall strength was the techniques they use and their mental strength. Having these thoughts the other incarnations couldn\'t help but look at the original incarnation who overpowers even all of them combined.
Did they really absorb all of the power they could or is there more? Some of them who had stayed here for eons still continue to feel like they were growing stronger every second, does that mean they weren\'t done absorbing the full power of their own soul? While every incarnation was thinking the Original Incarnation spoke.
"Well, we wasted a lot of time with that explanation sp how about we get back to the story of my wonderful and thrilling life?"
The Original Incarnation snapped his fingers and on the screen, the scene had changed as Erste was no longer absorbing the New God and instead had woken up in an unknown place.
