SSS Awakening: Rebirth of the Strongest Vampire God novel Chapter 395

Chapter 395: Absorbing the wyrm essence

The wyrm had already started to rot from the inside out thanks to all the poison in its body. Its natural regeneration ability, which came from its draconic genes, could simply not hold on anymore. Its abyss-fused scales cracked apart, black fire bleeding out in streams that fizzled into nothingness.

The light in its eyes dulled as it no longer had any fight left in it. With just one more breath left in its body, all the wyrm could do was stare blankly at the demon who had killed it so torturously.

Damon grinned. He had done it! He had actually done it! A freaking wyrm!

He hurriedly used Blink and appeared atop its twitching body, his body drenched in ichor, crimson eyes gleaming like burning coals. His chest rose and fell, not from exhaustion, but from exhilaration. He was going to absorb yet another draconic beast’s blood!

This was a rare chance that he was not going to get often. Before the beast bit the dust, he started greedily sucking in all of the blood essence that he could muster.

The process was nowhere near as painful this time, and his body, which housed the primordial mana core, was more than capable of handling it this time around. Maybe because there was a foundation already and his body was now tempered with poison in addition, it was greedily sucking in all the blood essence it could.

It was greedily swallowing the wyrm’s essence and forcing it through his veins. His blood boiled, his flesh hardened, and his aura flared until he was stuffed with more and more essence than he could handle. He was brimming with so much energy that he felt as if he was about to burst.

Damon felt as if he needed to expend all of this energy soon, or he might just burst and explode into pieces. It was his gut feeling, and he did not plan to ignore it. He immediately summoned his shadow and sent it further into the abyss zone to pick up more fights.

Not that he needed to do it. Without the wyrm, the abyssal ichor once again started bubbling, and more abyssal spawn started appearing in all directions. The fight had caused such a huge commotion that these were not the only ones who paid attention.

Damon could already spot Abyssal Fangs, Abyssal Imps, Abyssal Hounds, and even a few Abyssal Knights crawling out from nooks and corners of the world. Every single one of them wanted a bite of the wyrm’s flesh and his own, no doubt.

It was time to let loose some more.

The broken marketplace became a battlefield once more. Abyssal Fangs streaked forward like living darts, jaws snapping, while Imps screeched above, spitting searing bolts of violet flame.

The Hounds prowled in packs, shadows trailing from their claws, and behind them the Knights advanced in dreadful silence, their obsidian blades humming with corrupted energy. The air itself trembled, heavy with killing intent.

Damon exhaled slowly, the pressure within him screaming to be released. He sucked in another big breath, and the next moment, a hundred blood spears materialized around him. His primordial mana core, along with the thick and rich blood essence from the wyrm, was filling him up with infinite energy, and he let it all erupt at once.

The blood spears spun into a vortex around him, their edges vibrating with lethal intent. With a flick of his wrist, the storm broke outward. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Spears rained down like crimson meteors, ripping through the Abyssal Fangs mid-dash, pinning them to the shattered cobblestones before they could even yelp. Above, Imps screeched as the barrage shredded their wings, violet fire sputtering into harmless sparks as their bodies were skewered midair.

The ground shook as Abyssal Hounds lunged through the carnage, shadows snapping at Damon’s heels. When the Hounds closed in, Damon surged forward, dealing with them personally. He simply used hand to hand combat to tear them apart with his claws.

More and more blood essence seeped into his body, and the fighting only stabilized his bloodline assimilation process. There was so much excess of everything, and the egg was also happily eating to its heart’s content.

Finally, the Abyssal Knights arrived. Their obsidian swords cleaved through the lingering spears. But Damon was far from being spent. Energy roared inside him like a furnace, begging to be used. He conjured his crimson fire lance and dashed forward to fight with the knight’s unit.

At the same time, he conjured a dozen more thick lances which screamed forward towards their targets. The clash lit up the abyss zone in a storm of red and black. The brutal melee fight continued on for a while until new abyss monsters no longer dared to show up in the area.

Damon’s aura finally stabilized as he dealt with the last of the abyss monsters that had popped up. His body, pushed to its limits again and again in this fight, finally finished absorbing all the essence in the vicinity, including the last of the wyrm’s essence. The beast finally dropped dead, the last of its light fading away.
