Odyssey of the Blind God Chapter 624 Accepting The Addiction

Chapter 624 Accepting The Addiction

Nial was in awe and confusion as a humongous gate appeared out of nowhere, looming large and imposing in the middle of the empty space, surrounded by ten Grand Elders and the five disciples of the Late Supreme Elder. The gate was made of a silver ancient, weathered material that seemed to radiate a sense of age.
Even compared to the Late God of Darkness, Nial felt that the Gate was even older. Maybe it was even a creation that came into existence with the birth of the Universe…or it was something that existed before this Universe was born. It stood at least a hundred meters tall and just as wide.
As the gate appeared, the space around began to ripple and rumble, attracting Nial's attention. A deep, ominous noise filled the air and a fissure manifested within the gate, destroying the space within. The fissure lead to an unknown territory as if appeared as a deep, dark void, surrounded by a strange, pulsing energy.
It was as if the gate was a portal to another Universe, and the fissure in space was the gateway…maybe that was it?
The onlookers were filled with a mix of curiosity and fear, just like Nial. Some wanted to peer inside the gate but they were pushed back by the gate that began to pulsate. It seemed to recognize those who had been given the tickets to enter the place that lay beyond the deep, dark void.
Nial began to smile when he noticed that. He approached the gate that radiated an eerie and tense atmosphere. He ignored the sensation that made it seem as if reality was being stretched and twisted and stepped through the fissure, leaving behind the Devil Roc and Shadow.
The two Devils were not allowed to follow him because the Ancient Gate was able to sense the organisms attached to every being. If Shadow and the Devil Roc desired to follow him, they would require their own tickets. But because they didn't possess something like that, it was only obvious that the two Devils would have to take care of themself.
As Nial entered the fissure, he sealed his range of perception, mana, and all of his other senses off. He didn't want to have to digest everything his senses would depict when jumping through space. The first experience he made with that had been more than enough, and he didn't want to re-live it.
When Nial finally stepped outside the tunnel of the fissure in space, Nial found himself levitating in the open space. Nobody was next to him, and none of the 24 Demihumans who had entered the Arcania Realm were anywhere near him either.
With his range of perception and mana sense fully unleashed, Nial could sense that there was actually nothing corporeal in his surrounding area. There was only mana, a massive amount of eerily pure Origin Mana.
This happened quite often in the past few years but Nial found himself once again surrounded by even purer and stronger mana than he had ever felt before. Everything in his surrounding was overflowing with Origin Mana and he found himself naturally absorbing tremendous amounts of the Origin Mana that flooded him as if that was the Mana's sole purpose of existence. Nial's Mana Sense was drastically enhanced due to the influx of the Origin Mana.
He could clearly sense anything in a range of more than ten thousand kilometers. There was nothing to sense except the abundant Origin Mana but that was already enough. In fact, it was everything that counted.
Being all by himself with the Origin Mana, without anyone or anything else in his surroundings, was exactly what he wanted.
Taking a deep breath in the empty space, Origin Mana entered his mouth. It was refreshing and cleansing, seemingly removing the last bits of impurities within his body. This was worth a satisfied smile and him releasing the darkness domain in its strongest form.
Even if he had a total of ten years before he would be pulled outside the Arcania Realm, there was no time to waste. His schedule was tight and he had to start immediately if he wanted everything to work out as he desired.
While spreading out his darkness domain, he created various marks within the darkness domain. The marks were placed in a perfect manner with a specific distance between one another. They filled the darkness domain and were slowly replaced by The vortexes of the Vortex of Abyss cultivation technique.
Thousands of vortexes with a tremendous suctioning force were being installed one after another, with a perfect system to maintain the highest possible efficiency to absorb the surrounding Origin Mana quickly. The Origin Mana was absorbed and converted into dark energy.
However, the conversion rate was not like usual. On the contrary, a trace of Origin Mana was enough to turn into a massive amount of dark energy.
Making use of this wonderful find, Nial ended up expanding his darkness domain more than a hundredfold in a matter of days. Close to a hundred thousand vortexes had been installed while the amount of Origin Mana entering his body kept increasing exponentially.
Nial was falling back into his addiction to cultivate until the end of time, and he gave himself in to this sensation. It would only last ten years, either way. He would forcefully be dragged out of this addiction as the Arcania Realm would expel him.
Nial understood this and he chose to make use of his addiction to accelerate his cultivation progress even further.
It could only be advantageous, which was why Nial ended up falling into a trance where nothing but his desire to absorb more and more Origin Mana seemed important. Meanwhile, his Darkness Temples were slowly forming due to the influx of dark energy that flooded him. The dark energy was compressed, it solidified and it was slowly forcefully put into shape, further enhancing Nial's strength and the ability to control more dark energy and thus an expanded darkness domain.
Now was the time to accept his addiction and to make use of it to become the strongest!!
