Nial continued his search for being with unique energy fluctuations, and beings with exceptional eyes.
That way, he would – sooner or later – pinpoint the Advocate.
Other than that, he didn't have any means to find out who, or where the Advocate is.
'The Advocate will start throwing people at me pretty soon if he is doing what I expected from the Advocate,' Nial thought while continuing to fly through the space of the Dead Ykaln Galaxy.
Through his range of perception and Mana Sense, Nial created a path around the active battlefields. Instead, he collected the dead bodies by releasing his dark energy whenever he came close to them. Using his Cursed Divine Ability, Devour, he swallowed the corpses and digested them rapidly inside the Heart of Gluttony.
He didn't have to rush fighting the Advocate of the Pryard. Instead of rushing into anything, he may as well increase his strength as much as possible by devouring and digesting the bodies of Gods.
Before digesting the bodies he devoured, Nial made sure that they weren't poisoned with a similar substance as the Seed of Illusion. Digesting another Seed of Illusion wouldn't be unlucky anymore. It would mean that he was not careful enough and that his brain lacked a bunch of brain cells.
Time passed slowly across the battlefield, but nobody attacked him. Nial continued to devour and digest dead bodies while the battlefield's intensity increased tremendously.
The Armies of the Gigalorian Galaxies were not as rusty as a few months ago. They trained with the Army of Devils to fix their bad habits and improve their combat prowess once again. That was also why the Gigalorian Warriors were able to breeze through their enemies, killing their opponents one after another.
'Looks like we're currently at an advantage. Well, it is certainly disadvantageous if you know everything about your enemy but your enemy lacks even the most basic information about your opponent. They don't even know that most residents of the four Gigalorian Galaxies cultivate by altering their mana with Eternal Glory. I wonder how long we can exploit this advantage.'
Nial didn't think that it was difficult to avoid fights in the Dead Ykaln Galaxy. However, he might also be mistaken because it looked like some Gods avoided him. Even certain Divine Gods and Primordials were clearly trying to avoid him and make sure that he wouldn't fight them.
Even the prideful Primordials retreated, which confused Nial considerably.
'They have something planned, but what is it?'
Noth much later, he finally got to know what the rest of the universe had planned for him.
Precisely, it was the Advocate who seemed to know him as well as the inside of his pockets.
Hundreds of powerhouses appeared out of nowhere, surrounding Nial instantaneously. A particular fellow attracted his curiosity.
However, this being disappeared the moment he focused his Mana Sense on it.
'Who was that?' Nial wondered before he noticed a change of atmosphere in proximity.
Countless Divinities were unleashed with full power and elemental attacks began to hail down on him, forcefully diverting his focus from the unknown figure.
At the same time, his spatial movements were restrained, preventing him from using Grasp of Eclipse to teleport behind his opponents and forget about fleeing.
But running away was not an option anymore, in the first place. However, that was only obvious.
Who would follow a leader who runs away from the battlefield?
Nial was not willing to run, even if he were to be given the chance. He manifested Goldy's golden scales all over his body, a pair of golden horns, a pair of leather wings, and a dragon tail before he fused with the Infernal Devil of Darkness and Witchery as well.
His body expanded slightly in size, darkness oozed out of his body, two pairs of black-feathered wings grew out of his shoulder blades and two pairs of curved horns grew out of the sides of his head.
The presence around him changed and he exerted both the Weaponry of Ten Thousand Nights martial arts and the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique. His speed and combat prowess skyrocketed and he shot forward.
'To fight me, you will need a little bit more than a few hundred Ancient Gods. I am not alone, after all!' Nial thought, expanding the darkness around him.
A moment later, black figures of various sizes and shapes dashed out of the darkness.
Nial had kept some Devils in his Heart of Gluttony, especially for moments like this. He couldn't allow anyone to tire him out even before encountering the Advocate. That was exactly what the Advocate of the Pryard was trying to do, and Nial was not willing to fall into such a trap!
He sends his Devils out while also joining the battle against the few hundred Ancient Gods. Their cultivation rank might be the same but Nial never paid much heed to the Ancient Gods. Even certain Divine Gods wouldn't be able to pose a threat to him anymore. Why was there a need to fear Ancient Gods then?
Nial's speed was horrifyingly high. He passed through the encirclement of his opponents and retrieved the Eternal Darkness Spear without hesitation. Afterward, his slaughter began.
The tip of the Eternal Darkness Spear drilled deep into the neck of a Dwarf, gently slicing through the skin and flesh before Nial flicked his hand, twisting the Eternal Darkness Spear. The Dwarf's eyes widened and his lips separated but no word escaped his mouth.
Nial used minimal force to move the Eternal Darkness Spear to the side, slicing off the Dwarf's head.
Barely a second later, the Dwarf's body disappeared, swallowed by the darkness engulfing the Ancient God.
Nial's simple actions and attacks didn't seem like much at first. However, when he killed the second and third Ancient Gods with a similar – almost the same – method, the Ancient Gods desiring to fight Nial backed off.
When their battle spirit was at its lowest, intense holy light engulfed the Ancient Gods.
'Wasn't that the Advocate earlier?'
