Supreme Lord: I can extract everything! chapter-1007-volcano-god

Michael wasn't going to flee from the Pseudo God, or was he a proper God? Michael couldn't really tell the difference right now. The man's body was infused with far more Essence than all the Demi Gods he'd met and killed together. His Divinity was also larger than Michael's Divinities. If not for the damage inflicted on the Divinity, he could have been considered a proper God. Not a powerful one, but a full-fledged god.

[Just call him a God. It doesn't matter. You think you can kill him, so you are not scared of him because of the 'God' label. Some newly reborn Gods think of themselves as lesser than other full-fledged Gods when they first attain godhood. They think they are supposed to be weaker than old Gold, but that is not necessarily the case. Every Divinity is different, and it is not impossible for you to kill an older God merely because you just attained godhood. Either way, the label doesn't matter to you, which means you will be fine whether you consider him a God or a Pseudo God.]

Michael agreed with a shrug while the supreme healing serum healed him. Michael expanded the naturally forming Extraction Aura to draw in more energy while converting some of the Void Ingots stored in the Swallow Domain storage into nutrients. He then activated Unlimited Enhancement on River of Vigor to regrow his arm within seconds. The energy and nutrients required to do so were enormous, but it was only an insignificant fraction of what he could have formed by using Permute on the stored Void Ingots.

The God observed the burning arm for a second and turned to Michael, the regrowing arm attracting the God's interest.

"Looks like I will have a fun time burning you to death. You will suffer for a long time. Don't you worry about that!" He declared and made his move. The God moved through the open space, bursts of lava gushing out behind him.

His momentum increased to top speed, and he appeared before Michael. However, Michael was already prepared to face the Volcano God. He activated Curse Fusion on top of the already activated techniques and allowed his body to transform. The serpent scale armor grew out of him alongside the serpent tail. The right side of his body withered and looked like it was about to die at any moment. It transformed into a replication of Hel's undead appearance. Claws grew from his hands, his eyes transformed into the slits of a deadly predator, and his hair grew rapidly. Michael's presence changed drastically as the Essences of Fenrir, Jormungandr, and Hel influenced it even more. But that was not all. It hadn't been long, but the Nature Heart grew under the influence of curse power. It gained more of the Untamed Jungle's Divinity and expanded. At some point, the growth of the Nature Heart changed something. Something about the Nature Heart changed. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

It grew more effective whenever he channeled curse power through it, which was even more apparent when Michael activated Curse Fusion. The Nature Heart didn't have any great means of attack or even defense, but it filled Michael with lifeforce. It flooded Michael and allowed him to unleash his Soullife Arts as much as he pleased and to convert some lifeforce into energy if needed.

The latter wasn't needed just yet. The River of Vigor had accumulated enough healing serum, advanced healing serum, and supreme healing serum. There was no need to prepare anything else to heal him any further. Even regrowing lost limbs was rather simple once he used Unlimited Enhancement.

Once Curse Fusion jumped into action, Michael applied a few more layers of Greater Enhancement on his body. Simultaneously, he conjured hundreds of spears coated in ice using Emperor Qi and Galaxies of Elements to their fullest. The ice used had highly compressed freezing properties infused, alongside a trace of God Curse poison and True Extraction Essence, of course.

Michael hurled the Emperor Qi spears at the Volcano God, whose leg jerked toward Michael. He wasn't much faster than Michael once he didn't unleash his Volcano Essence to boost his speed, but Michael didn't do much to block his attack. All he did was to grow Emperor Qi Spikes, coated in Aethyr – which was amplified by Unlimited Enhancement – around the area of impact. The God struck Michael's leg, smashing it into countless pieces, mangling it in the most horrendous ways, but Michael accepted the pain.

Seeing the Volcano God's expression change when the Aether spikes pierced into his leg, penetrating the Volcano Essence and puncturing his leg, was enough for Michael. The pain was worth it, especially since his leg wasn't needed in a fight in the middle of empty space. It regenerated rapidly from the passive effect of the three stored versions of healing serum in large quantities.

Michael released the Emperor Qi spears when the Volcano God struck him and the Aether Spikes pierced his legs. They burst forward in batches of dozens and struck their target with ease. However, that is as far as the first batches went. The freezing ice covering the spears melted before they could pass through the Volcano Essence, but the Curse God Poison and the Extraction Essence jumped into effect nonetheless. Since they couldn't enter the God's body easily, Michael had applied Insert as well, ensuring the poison and Extraction Essence could invade "something". That something was the Volcano God's Essence. The spears exploded, pushing the Volcano Essence aside, even if it was merely one millimeter, probably less. It was enough for the God Curse Poison and Extraction Essence to invade. The poison weakened the Volcano Essence until it was also destroyed, burned to ashes, whereas the Extraction Essence affected the weakened Volcano Essence, draining a minuscule portion of it. It was easy to overcome the damage inflicted by one, or even a dozen of such attacks, but Michael had conjured hundreds of Emperor Qi Spears with the exact same augmentations.

The freezing ice continued melting as they struck the Volcano Essence covering the Volcano God, but both sides quickly realized what was about to happen. The Volcano God's Essence was drained with every Emperor Qi spear hitting him. He was forced to either remove the Volcano Essence and allow the spears to hit him, which wouldn't have harmed him much, but it was still too dangerous. Or he could escape close combat and reorganize his tactics to prepare for the next clash with Michael.

The latter was exactly what he did. The Volcano God didn't know what exactly Michael had done to weaken and drain his Essence, but if - whatever it was – entered his body, he would have trouble continuing fighting Michael.

Furthermore, for every injury he inflicted to Michael, the Volcano God would be injured as well. The worst, however, was that Michael could heal himself while the Volcano God's naturally high regeneration didn't kick in as it should have.

And he knew why. For a moment, the Volcano God hated himself for jumping into the battle. He shouldn't have attacked Michael without ample preparations.

'Fuck this bastard. I am going to tear him apart! Who cares if he has Aether or not?!!!'
