The God's Throne

Different emotions overtook Eria's mind. The black spherical crystal was his soul core- the very foundation of his god soul. Without it, he couldn't be called a complete being, nor could he be called a god.

The two soul cores were floating at the top of a pond. The pond had different shades of white and black. It seemed to be made of some special material as it could hold his god soul.

"So that's the reason why I was feeling so attached to the light. That white light also seems quite familiar. Could it be..." Eria thought to himself while standing still. Although only a second had passed; but to Eria, it felt like decades. However, as his eyes drifted from his soul core to the white spherical crystal, his eyes slowly went blood-red.

How could he not know what it was? Now that he looked carefully, he could comprehend that it was also a soul core at the comparable level as his, maybe even a bit higher. Currently, it could be said that it had more energy than the black soul core.

"It's the soul core of that fiend. It seems like it still has his intent hidden inside. I should quickly subdue it in order to get rid of the calamity," Eria said as he walked closer to the soul core. He realized that the soul core belonged to the overlord, the one he killed using his own life.

'How do I do this? Do I do something— actually, the answer lies within my soul core. However, it's too weak currently; I have to power it up if I want to destroy that soul core' Eria thought to himself. Due to his semi-god soul, foreign energy couldn't corrupt his mind.

Eria moved his right hand forward and gently touched his soul core. A feeling of resonance took over him. He felt like he was looking at his own child as he gently took it out from the pond. Both of the soul core had lost energy source- god soul. Both of the soul core had weakened severely to the point where they didn't even have a millionth of original power. Although that was the case, they were still strong enough to take out magical emperor.

With his left hand, Erie took out the white soul core from the pond. Although it was resisting him, it was only causing minor damage to Eria. He used the god soul within to communicate with his soul core. He used every ounce of his god soul to powerup the black soul core. As he exhausted himself severely, the black soul core buzzed and exuded black aura, which was stronger than that of the white soul core.

The black soul core suddenly seemed to have forced the white core to the summit. Without any energy source, the white soul core couldn't resist.

For any golden wolf that had ever attempted to get close to the soul core, It would have been mind-blowing. It had taken someone at the rank of a magical emperor to sacrifice his life to depreciate its damage, so it was astonishing that someone at the rank of beginner mage could subdue it.

"Shrill"

As Eria was about to use more power to destroy the white soul core, an intent with an evil vitality suddenly appeared. Seeing this, Eria knew he was in trouble.

This was the intent of the overlord he had killed. Even though it didn't have a physical body, it still was still as strong as a strand of god soul.

"HAHA. Despair Lord, didn't expect to see you here" A white figure appeared at the top floor of the pagoda and said in a sinister voice," how many years has it been? A million? ten million? I have been here for those years waiting for a strong soul to devour. But, you present it to me. Now, isn't that exciting."

However, Eria didn't stop to listen to him fully. Suddenly, space around him shook, and Eria disappeared from his place. He was suddenly outside of the pagoda. He didn't turn around but said: "Keep babbling if you want to, but you can't catch up to me at your state, let alone capture me."

This was the space-shifting technique. It was an emperor ranked art he gained when he broke through to the third level of beginner mage.

Seeing what was happening before him, the white figure floated swiftly towards Eria. However, before he could move outside the pagoda, an overwhelming power suddenly came from within the pagoda. Innumerable strands of spirit-hand came from within and stoped him. These were the seal that was used by previous Golden wolf king to seal him in place.

"Since it has come to this, I will risk everything. You were the reason I have suffered this destiny. I will die with you if it comes to it," the white figure face was twisted as he spoke. He coagulated every ounce of his soul and burned it to turn it into energy. A scarlet flame suddenly burned from his body and attacked the spirit-hands.

It took hours to burn those hands, but Eria was already near the surface of the pond. However, before he could escape, the white figure was already free.

"Large-scale transmission" The overlord's intent used a high-level art to teleport. He floated right at the center of the pond after using most of his energy. He was only one hundred meters away from Eria causing Eria to feel the pressure. Nevertheless, Eria didn't panic. Instead, he headed towards the soul.

"Forceful soul detonation" A spell suddenly manifested before the white figure. The white figure became paralyzed for a while but still stood his ground.

"Quick! Do what you have to do. I know you can do this," Wolf king sudden appeared near Eria. He seemed to have already seen it coming. Eria sighed lightly and took out the black soul core from his pocket. He reluctantly looked at it, but he still used his god energy to control it. Then, he threw it towards the white soul as hard as he could.

The black soul stuck the white figure, however, it didn't cause any damage to the overlord.

"HA. Is that your plan? Are you playing a game or what?" The white figure seemed irritated but Eria looked at the white figure with a cold expression.

"Soul suppress"

"Buzz"

Suddenly, the black soul core vibrated and started to absorb the white figure. The alien couldn't help but believe what was happening. He had assumed that Eria could at most struggle from facing him. That was because he didn't know the real terror of Eria. The intent only had a tiny bit the overlord's memories, so he didn't know that Eria was one of the most fearsome gods. Even while being in a lower level of strength compared to the overlord, Eria had still killed him.

"STOP!" The intent behind couldn't help but scream. It only had a tiny portion of the original soul, and most of it was used up so it couldn't muster up any power to stand against an actual god.

"Crack" The black crystal cracked, leaving only a small peanut size pill. The pill was black but also had a tinge of whiteness within it. Eria went ahead and shoved it in his pocket. The soul core was gone; only a bit of its essence power remained. Although there was no God power within it, it still was the foundation for Eria's god soul.

"All done!" Golden wolf still had sweat at the top of its forehead. He had an excited expression at his face, while tears were leaking from his eyes. He couldn't believe that they had destroyed an actual calamity. The one that had nearly killed his clan off. The only reason their clan had small population was because of the overlord. Now that he was gone, they could finally rest peacefully. It had occupied their holy ground for years.

"Good thing it was only a strand of the intent; otherwise, I had been dead," Eria said as he felt gleeful.
