Celestial Peak

Chapter 538: Predecessor I

"Oh, the pain of holding back. The act of becoming the Mother of all being, such a tragedy that you cannot even comprehend, my dear." With every step Bai Xue shed her furred body into that of a humanoid form. Her hair grew longer, and the fluffy air around her disappeared. Only the Nine White Fox Tails existed.

Her air, now became domineering. Space form on the soles of her feet, giving footing to the one absolute monarch of existence, "Oh? The space in this place is very much similar to the Abyss, don't you think, Ling?"

"Xue, what are you doing here? I thought you couldn't kill anyone anymore?" Wang Ling said, concerned for Bai Xue's mental strength.

"You misunderstand me, Ling, I said I didn't want to kill, not I can't. I am very well capable of annihilating and devouring an entire City, or now, world with a single move of my finger, but, I choose not to for certain reasons. But, those reasons does not apply to this cretin."

"Tsk, you said you wouldn't get interfere, Xu" 

A tail wrapped around Wang Ling's mouth, stopping any words from coming out, the predecessor, got between Bai Xue and Wang Ling, "Do not speak to the vixen, my love. You will fall for her trickery, once again"

The Predecessor's top half then slowly changed to take the form of a female human, breast and all. Her claws extended and atop her head, there appeared a broken, crimson crown, "this time, I will protect you, my love."

The entire domain of death was easily overtaken by the swirling rage and power of a crimson light. The scent of a sweet aroma, began to take over the surrounding. Her eyes turned rabid and her fangs longer. She was no longer carried the uplifting air of a mother, but that of a rabid creature, protecting what was hers or so she believed.

And at the sight of a being that could destroy worlds, Bai Xue laughed all the same to all beings that stands before her, "Shi~ shi~ shi~, You finally decided to open your eyes after all these years. I didn't think you would actually open your eyes. After all, this was final ditch effort of survival." Bai Xue's tone was severe heavy and deadly.

He looked at the corrupted predecessor, glaring back, but she didn't care. 

"You the vixen who took over my existence and attempted to seduce my beloved with my body." The predecessor slithered to Bai Xue's face. Glaring, and angry, she was livid seeing the one who took over her place, then, she snorted, "But, I cannot blame my beloved for not seeing through you, after all, his desire for my companionship in your form must have been painful. You are merely a substitute, for me."

To the Predecessor's taunts, Bai Xue could hardly care, "Oh, I did not deceive your, Ling if he never came out in the first place. That fogey you are handling over there is not the one you speak of, surely. After all, the one you loved, the one you call beloved no longer exists."

"STOP LYING!"

BOOM!

The dark world rumbled as claws of the Half-serpent Predecessor appeared right before Bai Xue. Surging with Murderous intent, her intent was clear from her eyes aloneTear Bai Xue limb from limb.

The red claws, however, could not even reach Bai Xue's flesh and leave a single mark. With but three tails, Bai Xue stopped the claws from approaching, "You call me a liar, my dear self? But, other than the morsel of trace that is his qi, can you feel that over there, is the man you fell for? Is he the same person who created all life in this Universe with you?"

"trickery you are trying to infect me with your thoughts, trying to take what I am for your own sake." The Predecessor's light only grew stronger the more her light became more and more apparent.

"No, no, no, no, no, you must be you must be one of his pawnsanother Homunculus, sent to us to me, in order to" The Predecessor's face changed from the deepest parts of her heart she pulled out everything she could! Warping reality itself! 

In the past there were humans, elves, beastmen, and others who called themselves Gods. These Gods wielded the power of Laws, Mandates, Space and even Homunculus creating life of their own. One would know they had reached Godhood in the form of two things, one was through their mastery of Laws, and the other a Golden Crown.

Quarter Completion, Half Completion, and lastly three quarters the Corona could never be completed, but it allowed Cultivators to harness the power of Laws and Mandates to their own desires for millions of years.

But, the question remains, where did Cultivators got the idea of forming Crowns or Coronas? Where did it originated from? Simple from the two absolute beings, the start of everything, the All-Mother and All-Father.

The Crown was their proof of ruling. Though the previous Era only considered the Crowns as proof of their cultivation's strength, its divisor, or whoever scattered cultivation to Civilization, meant to only reach the same level as the two Absolute Rulers. They wanted to be as close to the All-Father and All-Mother, like the Primordial Creations.

But, now, the Predecessor recreated a true and perfect Corona.

Through the Corona that glows with Godly Might and now atop the Predecessor's head appeared just that a Corona.

The light violently flashed and the broken Crown slowly regenerated its prowess, giving her the ability to manipulate everything and anything.

"I'm getting tired of the lightshow, let's end this." Bai Xue raised her hands, and then she looked down and saw holes on her body, "Huh, that's weird it's not healing?"

Nothing sounded out, nothing echoed yet she could feel something stabbed her.

Spears, invisible, and intangible spears formed around Bai Xue. These spears could not be seen, for they were formed through intangible substance like Space, Time, Essence, and more.

THUD! Bai Xue limply fell.
