Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!

Chapter 1056  Same Old

The Beast Halos attacked Primal Xerx while Michael's body was put together. The Red Dragon, Zeroa, and Sun Demos caused little to no damage, but the Beast God Halos made up for that.

Fenrir was about to swallow the Primal in one bite when Xerx released a shockwave of Essence. The shockwave blasted Fenrir away, but not without the Wolf's Extraction Essence draining the Primal's Essence. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Jormungandr compressed his body to look like a 50-meter-long serpent. He slithered quickly through the wide open space and dug his fangs deep into the Primal's arms. At least as deep as Primal Xerx allowed him to go. Jormungandr's fangs barely pierced Xerx's skin thanks to the Power Authority increasing the impact and the Law of Poison burning through the Primal's skin like high-quality acid.

The poison – Primordial-grade venom augmented by the Law of Poison, to be precise – entered Xerx's body and spread rapidly. It spread through the Primal's arm, forcing Xerx to use his Essence, seal the poison, and expel it again.

The poison couldn't fight against the Primal's Essence, but it was strong enough to corrode some of it.

Last but not least, Hel cast several afflictions of Death upon the Primal. As a being that has lived since the beginning of time, the Primal has escaped death many times. Each successful escape from a near-death situation increased the success rate of inflicting a Death Affliction. Michael did not know how exactly it worked, but he saw Hel applying several Death Afflictions to the Primal. Xerx had to remove the Death Afflictions, but he conjured dozens of Essence Spears before anything else. The Essence Spears transformed into pristine flashes when the Primal hurled them through the planetary system.

The Beast Halos were destroyed on the spot, but not without the God Curses' Halos gathering the Essences used to maintain their bodies the instant the Essence Spears reached them. The Essences within the Halos erupted to destroy the Essence Spears and damage the Essence upon impact. That worked more or less, draining more of the Primal's Essence in the process.

Michael slipped behind Primal Xerx as he cursed the destruction of several Essence Spears and slashed him several times with his pair of Pure Aether Sabers. Just like before, Michael had infused the Power of Extraction in one saber and Death in the other saber while applying the Law of Poison to both.

The Power Authority, added by Heavenly Beast Physique, Foundation Break, and Unlimited Enhancement, pushed his physical prowess to the peak. Despite that many augments, the Primal blocked his attacks. He created tens of Essence Shields simultaneously, only for each of them to get cut before Extraction, Death, and Poison jumped into effect.

Every Essence Shield cut by the Pure Aether Saber lost a portion of its power instantly, yet the bigger damage was done through Poison, Death, and Extraction. Still, instead of ordering the Power of Extraction to drain as much Essence as possible instantaneously, Michael had used Unlimited Enhancement on Poison and Death, forcing Primal Xerx to remove them first.

In the meantime, the Power of Extraction could spread across the Essence Shields, or what was left of them, before it drained the Essence within the shields rapidly. Everything had been augmented with Unlimited Enhancement, increasing the effect of his Divinities drastically. He drained a tremendous amount of Essence, which was only a minuscule fraction in the Primal's storage.

But that was fine. After all, every trace of Essence missing within the Primal weakened him, whereas Michael was growing stronger. After all, he was still consuming and annexing the Essence of roughly 100 Minor and Major Gods. Once he was done with that, Michael would have more than enough of the Primal's Essence gathered to analyze and annex it as well. That being said, Michael's strength increased by bits and pieces every minute while the Primal's reserves would diminish slowly. Primal Xerx was bound to lose. All Michael had to do was keep going, slowly inflicting damage like he had always done. The strategy he had pursued since he manifested his War Rune and Extraction would work out this time as well.

All he had to do was to extract the enemy's power, essence, and lifeforce. And, of course, Michael would have to survive. If he died all of a sudden, the Rebels would be slaughtered and the universe would remain in the Primals' control.

Several Essence Spears and Blades pierced Michael's body from all directions, but he only smiled and unleashed his Divinities within his body. The Essence Spears and Blades were extracted, corroded, and consumed while they were still stuck in Michael. Simultaneously, with the consumption of the weapons stuck in his body, Michael healed up.

"You're getting on my nerves!" Primal Xerx roared, releasing a bomb of compressed Essence at Michael.

First, there was only one Essence bomb, but Primal Xerx didn't hold back anymore. He gathered abundant Essence to tear Michael into shreds, uncaring about the amount of Essence Michael may or may not burn through or consume.

As long as Michael died, it did not matter how much of his Essence would be removed. He could replenish his used-up Essence as long as his body wouldn't adapt to the scarcity of Essence too quickly. That was the only problem. The possibility of his body adapting to the changes too quickly, permanently decreasing his Essence storage due to the Essence shortage.

However, Essence adaptation was his smallest issue at this moment. Primal Xerx was more concerned with the enemy before him.

Michael countered the Essence bombs, which were much faster than the Essence Spears, with golden icicles. There was no need to waste too much energy on creating compressed Emperor Qi Swords since the Essence bombs would destroy everything either way. Thus, Michael created icicles via Galaxies of Elements and inserted True Extraction Essence from Fenrir's storage. He used Unlimited Enhancement on Fenrir's True Extraction Essence before adding it to the icicles and hurled them at the Essence bombs a moment later.

The Essence bombs had a strong suctioning force and devoured the golden icicles once they were in the range. Yet, instead of exploding when the True Extraction Essence within the Essence bomb exploded, nothing major happened.

All Michael could tell was that the Essence gathered within the Essence bombs was drained and channeled into Michael.

But something unexpected happened when he tried annexing the Essence from the bombs.

It exploded within Michael, tearing him apart from the inside.
