Chapter 1028 A New Strategy
-----
It has a similar weakness that I possessed back then when I was a mortal. Now that I am a God, I can easily generate mass using Divine Power or automatically eating from my large stash of meals inside of my Inventory almost automatically. However this thing has none of such powers. It also seems that it can only copy magic and the power of the body, it can even scan the DNA, or how else would it be able to recreate my dragon head like that?
However, he's also limited in that alongside its mass. As long as I can destroy its mass constantly, it'll reduce in size constantly and it will need to do the same it did with the ants, devour them to gain mass and more new power. It hasn't regenerated the humanoid arms and other parts it had before either, this means it lacks the ability to recall materialized parts it had before, or it has a limited amount it can use and store within its own memory.
But aside from the mass, the DNA scan it has is limited as well. It cannot completely turn into a perfect copy of me, it lacks… energy, without enough energy, it cannot properly copy every feature of the DNA it scans and assimilates. It cannot gain wings, nor my claws, so it is mixing them with the many ants it ate. It ate so many it must have a lot of their DNA stored, so it is easy to shape into them and abuse their physical abilities and shapes.
Ants of this type of monster can secret acid and venom from their jaws, and that black exoskeleton can become incredibly hard when it is folded into hundreds of small, thin, almost invisible layers… Now, it has my dragon powers, but only partially, it cannot get them all.
I don't want to get cocky though, but I believe I've devised a strategy.
"GROOOARRRR!"
CRAAAASSSHHH!
The monstrous aberration immediately clashed against me, as I jumped into the airs and flapped my wings rapidly, flying upwards and then gathering winds within my hands.
"Divine Wind Magic: Atmospheric Pressure!"
TRUUUUUMMMM…!
An enormous pressure of atmospheric proportions reached the aberration directly, pushing the monster down into the ground.
BAAAAM!
"GRAAAARRRR!"
However, its jaws opened, gathering bright draconic energy.
"You've gotta be kidding me…"
FLAAAASH!
A goddamn dragon breath?!
BOOOOOOMMMM!!!
The enormous draconic breath reached me in an instant, as a loud explosion shook the underground place which couldn't be more shaken anymore.
However, I remained stable, as I looked down at the beast.
"Not like it's going to work."
I was unscathed. My own attack against me will never work. Dragon Breath of Ice Element? Even less, I can absorb Ice Element, of any kind, I even restored Health and Mana out of that blow.
"GRAAH?!"
Gluttony was shocked, looking at me with its various eyes in disbelief.
"Yeah, that is not going to cut it buddy…"
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Suddenly, I generated several slimes all around him, which I have snuck behind his back, and quickly used [Magic Transfer], conjuring [Greater Atmospheric Pressure] twenty times in a row.
TRUUUUUUUMMMMM!!!!
The enormous pressure was now more than noticeable, the beast was thrown into the ground, twitching, and trying to get out of my powerful pressure. As long as I keep pushing it down, it cannot properly move, and crawls around like a slow slug.
Its body was slowly tearing apart but devouring its own pieces and regenerating back up in an endless loop. Even more, it was slowly evolving, trying to get more used to the pressure.
So it not only assimilates flesh but it also adapts to different types of environments. Is this why it became so resistant to my fire and my darkness, or how my slashing and piercing attacks became less effective as well?
This bastard is building an entire Resistance Skill out of my blows. And it is probably slowly learning Wind Resistance as I unleash Atmospheric Pressure.
But it'll take him a while, and that's more than enough for me.
"GRYSHAAAAAA!"
The monster roared back at me once more, suddenly six dragon heads appeared over its worm-like body, firing draconic breaths, this time, it was darkness and poison, thinking this would affect me. Well, it was fairly powerful, but I had currently buffed myself using spells and also using the power of [Divine Soul Forging Arts (A)] and [Unmovable Mountain (A)] to tank as many hits as necessary.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
As I was bombarded with explosive beams of darkness and poison attribute, I looked down at the monster with a smile.
"Belle!"
"You finally called for my help!"
"Divine Spirit Fusion!"
FLAAASH!
A beautiful pink fox emerged atop my large dragon head, fusing with my body. Purple and pink jewels appeared around my silver scaled body, as enormous crystal horns grew atop my head. I didn't gain any fur nor fox ears, nor even fox tails, which only happened in my ice giant form.
"Divine Spirit Creation: Dream Clone."
FLAAASH!
Combining the power of Belle with Divine Spirit Creation, I created an exact clone of myself made of pink and purple fog, a Dream Clone of temporary use. With a mental command, I immediately sent my clone behind Gluttony, as it suddenly began to gather Dream powers, connected with me, it could easily conjure as many as I could.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
I kept tanking the hits as it would interrupt my concentration to fly around trying to evade them, which would give the monster an opening to escape the Atmospheric Pressure.
FLUOOOSH!
The Dream Clone finally finished, opening an enormous portal to a Dream Realm.
"Divine Dream Magic: Gates of Nightmares."
CREAAAAKK…!
The gates opened, as an enormous suction force emerged. The beast ignored it, but it suddenly began to twitch in pain and shock, it was even afraid. It quickly looked behind, noticing the enormous translucent gates, as what resembled a black shadow began to emerge from within its body…
That was his soul.
