Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 1114 - The Scythe Of Defiance

The power of Dao Materialization was pretty crazy, what could it truly do amazed me countless of times through this little practice session.

And now, it was time to finally try out a new technique within the Materialization of the Dao of Defiance, the Scythe of Defiance!

So… what does this do, exactly?

Oh well, to be honest, I don\'t know, so I revived the golem back to its peak and politely asked it to become my guinea pig for a little bit more of time.

He happily and politely agreed because he\'s a true gentleman, and we finally decided to start the test right away, although I never waited for his response but who cares about the response of a golem, a giant golem?

Anyway, as I said, I started slashin\'.

SLASH!

A single slash using my Scythe over the golem sliced it in half.

BOOM!

The massive thing crumbled apart.

Well, this scythe is pretty strong, a strong weapon, enough to slice in half a massive golem, alright, I guess it is indeed worth the money.

But that wasn\'t the complete case! The real case in here was that I actually wanted to test the ability, so I asked Andromeda about it.

"Master remember to think about the ability while activating it, visualize it!" said Andromeda.

"H-How can I visualize something I don\'t know what it does?" I asked.

"Just visualize the name of the ability and something should happen, like you did with the others!" she said.

"Alright let me see…"

I closed my eyes and visualized whatever was harvesting destiny, and then I slashed the golem I revived once more.

CLAAAASH!

However, this time the golem wasn\'t torn apart, but something emerged from it, a massive amount of golden threads shut up to me and began to drown me on its brilliant essence, only if a little bit, it really surprised me and took me back.

"Ugh…! What the heck is this- Ah! These are Fate Threads, aren\'t they?"

Immediately after that I noticed a few billion divine energy and some more Dao Rivers being emptied by using this power, it was clear as water that it was the power to harvest destiny quite literally, taking away a person\'s fate threads and even being able to slice them off like harvesting plants? Let\'s see…

I sliced off the fate threads and then they emerged as a valuable fate-attribute divine materials, while the subject seemed fine? I decided to let it continue acting normally, but the only thing that I realized was that there were new destinies completely from the ones I sliced off. It seems that this power can completely cancel a destiny from a target, a completely whole path in the future can just be canceled by my power? Is this really allowed?! Seems way too overpowered.

"As you can see, master, this power allows you to not only harvest fate-attribute divine materials as a side effect, but its real power is at completely removing possible futures within the path of a target. Of course, those greatly stronger than you can resist or have the destiny you target only half-sliced, but it works wonderfully if you want to negate a possible future! Of course, the future is always changing, so the target can remake such a path… but its up to you to stop them before they do…" said Andromeda.

"I see… quite complicated but I think I get it. Anyways, I suppose that is enough testing for today- wait a second. What about Dao Fragments, can I Materialize them?" I wondered.

"Sadly, no. You can\'t, master, Dao Fragments are too weak and lack their personal Dao Essence Rivers to nourish enough of their power and allow them the ability to have the power of Materialization. Nonetheless, they\'re still good for you, and bring forth nerfed Dao effects." Said Andromeda.

"You\'re right! They\'re not half bad anyways… For now, let\'s get this out of my body because they drain too much energy, even with my Drain Path Jewel, I seem to barely be able to hold on all of this. They simply require ridiculous quantities of energy… I don\'t think any normal Supreme could easily wield them for too long either." I said.

"Indeed! Now that we are done with testing, master, how about you begin doing new Path Jewels as you\'ve said before? This was your original intention, wasn\'t it?" she wondered.

"You\'re more than right! That was my intention all along. So let\'s get to it."

Path Jewels, the wonderful law-defying power that I can create since some time now. I had originally come out with them when I wanted an upgrade from simply fusing Skills and stuff, I wanted something unique where I could gather the power of skills and more combined into a powerful set of abilities that could only be found on a series of divine techniques, but perhaps even better.

These Path Jewels I create are now defying logic itself way more than ever before thanks to the wondrous Path Jewel Dao I\'ve made. I know about this power from before, but this Dao was the one that kicked them up into the skies with new and amazing powers that brought upon them more simplicity but at the same time, more fierceness and abilities and effects and everything!

The recent Path Jewel I upgraded was the Dao Master Path jewel, and it brought to me even better effects that I could had ever imagined, my Daos are even more enhanced than ever thanks to them, and whoever is guided through its Dao Guider ability can inherit a part of all its abilities to enhance their power and Dao Comprehension.

With this Path Jewel, I was mostly experimenting, the same than with the Path Jewel of Drain, which even gave birth to the Dao of Drain.

Now, I want something new, something else to make. I had thought and considering it plenty of times. I had two new Path Jewels that brought energy and the another that brought enhancement to Daos, so what else is next?

Hmm…
