Chapter 380: Supreme God Divine Core, Destruction With A Flick of One’s Fingers

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

No one could take the allure of a Chief God divine core in stride. It was normal for father and son to turn against each other or for man and wife to become enemies because of a Chief God divine core. This particular Naga couple was the clearest example of that.

Despite having accompanied each other for so many years and braving through countless hardships and obstacles together, none of it was as important as the Chief God divine core in this instant!

“Alright, you guys. Make way, please!”

Just as the two elderly Nagas were embroiled in a persistent argument, someone finally couldn’t stand to watch it anymore. They appeared bizarrely in between the two of them and grabbed the Chief God divine core over to themselves.

The two Naga elders’ expressions changed drastically, and they quickly turned to the newcomer. Fire was practically blazing in their eyes, and the looks on their faces were as if they wished they could stuff a bomb into the crotch of the newcomer’s trousers.

“You goddamn thief! Give the Chief God divine core back to me!”

The two Naga elders flew into a thundering rage and blatantly dealt the newcomer palm strikes. The wind impact from their palm strikes was so fierce and forceful that it was as if they wanted to smash the newcomer into a bloody pulp before they could fully vent their fury.

“The two of you have already turned on each other just because of this Chief God divine core. This is truly a huge tragedy of life! For your sakes, I shall confiscate this Chief God divine core instead!”

The newcomer was none other than Meng Lei. He teleported a few kilometers away in a flash, and then he started to inspect the Chief God divine core, his eyes gleaming brightly all the while as he did so.

“Its composition and quality hold several similarities to low-end and mid-end existential planes’ Hearts of The Existential Plane, but its might is much more powerful than theirs,” murmured Meng Lei.

“Of course. Apart from the ten basic laws of nature and ten types of Power of Origin, a high-end existential plane’s Heart of The Existential Plane’s composition also includes the five supreme laws of nature and their power.”

Moro manifested beside Meng Lei and said, “You can try imagining for yourself how mighty the substance formed using 15 types of laws of nature, and 15 types of power must be! It’s said that...”

“What?” asked a puzzled Meng Lei.

“It’s said that a complete high-end Heart of The Existential Plane is comparable to a Supreme God divine core. Anyone that assimilates a complete high-end Heart of The Existential Plane will possess strength comparable to a Supreme God of The Universe’s,” replied a smiling Moro.

“A Supreme God of The Universe!”

Meng Lei perked up.

What came after a lesser Chief God, an intermediate Chief God, a higher Chief God, and a Juggernaut was the Supreme God of The Universe. From this, one could imagine just how powerful a Supreme God was!

A complete high-end Heart of The Existential Plane was comparable to a Supreme God divine core? A gleam flashed across Meng Lei’s eyes.

“It’s just a shame that a complete high-end Heart of The Existential Plane can’t exist. Therefore, this also implies that it’s impossible for Supreme Gods to exist in the universe.” Moro then added with a smile, “I guess this can also be considered a balance in another way.”

“Perhaps!”

Meng Lei gave him a smile. Then, he asked, “Moro, do you think this is a lesser Chief God divine core, an intermediate Chief God divine core, or a higher Chief God divine core?”

“No, no, you’re mistaken,” Moro corrected him and said, “While there’s a difference in strength among Chief Gods, there isn’t a difference in grades among Chief God divine cores.

“Every Chief God divine core’s composition and size are exactly the same. A Chief God’s level of strength is instead determined by their degree of comprehension of supreme laws of nature. This is how it works concretely:

“Chief Gods that have only assimilated Chief God divine cores but are completely ignorant of supreme laws of nature are lesser Chief Gods and are the weakest among the lot.

“Chief Gods that have assimilated Chief God divine cores and also comprehended some supreme laws of nature are the slightly stronger intermediate Chief Gods, while those that have great prowess in supreme laws of nature are higher Chief Gods.

“As for Chief Gods that have both assimilated Chief God divine cores and also fully comprehended a type of supreme laws of nature, they are Juggernauts.”

“Fine!”

Meng Lei curled his lip disdainfully in response. He had already known since a long time ago that a Chief God’s level of strength was related to their degree of comprehension of laws of nature, but what he hadn’t expected was that it was actually... completely unrelated to the Chief God divine cores!

All Chief God divine cores were completely identical!

“You’ve already started to comprehend four types of supreme laws of nature. Although you’re just scratching the surface of the subjects, it’s at least still something. If you assimilate this Chief God divine core, you’ll become an intermediate Chief God right away.” Moro licked his lips and said cheerfully, “So, hurry and assimilate it!”

Meng Lei nodded lightly. Then, he asked, “Can someone that hasn’t deified yet assimilate a Chief God divine core?”

Upon his question, Moro replied without any hesitation, “Someone that hasn’t deified yet wouldn’t possess a divine core. Since they don’t even have a divine core, then, of course, they can’t assimilate a Chief God divine core.”

“What a real shame! I can’t assimilate this, then,” replied Meng Lei regretfully.

“You can’t? What do you mean?”

Moro was rather stupefied. A moment later, he finally realized the meaning behind Meng Lei’s words and asked, “Y-you can’t be saying that you haven’t deified yet, right?”

“Yeah!”

Meng Lei nodded lightly.

“...”

A stunned Moro stared at Meng Lei in stupefaction as though he were staring at a freak. After a long while, he finally uttered, “Just what kind of freak are you, exactly? To think you haven’t deified yet!”

“I am what I am, the fireworks of a different color1!”

Meng Lei gave him a slight smile and kept the Chief God divine core with a flip of his wrist. It was right at this moment that he suddenly assailed by a swift and fierce wind, to which Meng Lei immediately dodged.

He turned over to find out that it was actually the Manro Empress!

“Hand over the Chief God divine core!”

The corners of the Manro Empress’ lips were stained with blood. Not only had her fighting spirit and the killing intent in her eyes not weakened, but they had even intensified. She stared coldly at Meng Lei.

“Hand over the Chief God divine core!”

The two Naga elders also charged over to Meng Lei.

“You traitors! I’ll deal with the two of you after this!”

The Manro Empress gave the two of them an icy glare before her line of sight returned to Meng Lei once more. This was exactly how strong a Chief God divine core’s allure was—it could even compel the Manro Empress to temporarily put aside her grudges.

The two Naga elders were rather embarrassed, but now that things had come to such a pass, they couldn’t afford to be bothered about so much anymore. They watched Meng Lei with fierce and savage looks in their eyes, their killing intent so strong that it had almost solidified.

They practically hated Meng Lei with every fiber of their being right now. They had obviously already gotten their hands on the Chief God divine core, yet Meng Lei had snatched it away from them in the end and caused them to get their hopes up for nothing.

This feud between them was simply too great!

“You want the Chief God divine core? Why should I give it to you?”

Meng Lei watched the three of them with great interest.

“The Chief God divine core is ours, the Desert Manro Nagas’! Hand it over at once if you know what’s good for you! Otherwise, I’ll see that you die in the Great Pompeii Desert and rest forever in this desolate land!” replied the Manro Empress coldly.

“Hah, it’s yours just because it appeared in your territory? Although you’re making quite the domineering claim, it does seem to make a bit of sense.”

Meng Lei said with a smile, “Since that’s the case, then let me hereby formally announce that the entire Great Pompeii Desert is my territory from this moment onward. Do you have any objections?”

“What insolence!”

“You’re courting death!”

“You bastard!”

The trio flew into a thundering rage the moment they heard what Meng Lei said, and they attacked right away.

“Snake Rules The World!”

A huge, majestic hologram of a large golden snake arose from the Manro Empress as she let out a low roar. Then, its form solidified, and its jaws snapped at Meng Lei.

“Shadow Snakes!”

The Naga old man’s right arm extended and transformed into a huge purple python that lunged at Meng Lei.

“Snake Flurry of Destruction!”

The Naga old woman clapped her hands together, upon which innumerable poisonous snakes hurtled out of her sleeves like laser guns and bit viciously at Meng Lei.

“Insignificant tricks!”

Meng Lei slowly raised his right hand and gently tapped the air with his finger. A tricolored chilly current burst forth from his fingertip, instantly spreading into the surroundings and shrouding the whole area within it.

Crack!

The tricolored chilly current appeared plain and unremarkable, but it exhibited incredibly fearsome might the very instant it made contact with the massive golden snake, the huge purple python, and the innumerable poisonous snakes.

The massive golden snake, the huge purple python, and the innumerable poisonous snakes were sealed in ice in a mere instant, turning into several ice sculptures that stood frozen in mid-air, still and motionless.

“What?”

“How can that be?”

The Manro Empress and the two Naga elders’ expressions changed dramatically as disbelief filled their eyes. One must know that they were super experts that were infinitely close to becoming Great Perfection deities! Who could withstand their attacks with the three of them joining hands?

Yet Meng Lei had negated their attacks so casually! Just how strong was he?

“To think the three of you actually dare to covet the Chief God divine core with your meager capabilities. Aren’t you afraid that you’ll end up dying a terrible death and your clan annihilated?”
