Chapter 672 Digesting A Divine God

Chapter 672 Digesting A Divine God

The corpses of the Gods he had devoured in the Divine God of Truth's main office were sealed deep inside his Heart of Gluttony.
They had been compromised and were not slowly digested. The process was slow and arduous because of the high difference in strength between Nial and the corpses he wanted to devour.
Digesting the ordinary Gods wouldn't take too long because they were equal in terms of strength, but the Ancient Gods' corpses and the corpses of the Divine God were something entirely different.
However, Nial was not in a hurry either. The energy released from the corpses he devoured would be used to refine his Cursed Divinity. In return, the Cursed Divinity would refine his body, mind, and soul. He would receive the most energy from the Divine God, so it was only fair for the digesting procedure to take the longest.
It would take a few months before the first Gods would attack the Orion Shelter. That was something Nial was pretty sure about. Even if his prediction was a little wrong, it was not as if it would be completely wrong.
Thus, he focused on the digestion of the Gods' corpses while paying attention to other things as well.
He could split his mind to make sure that the digestion process inside the Heart of Gluttony wouldn't be affected by his actions. That way, he could work together with Princess Evalyne, the newly advanced Saint Runicier, Ophelia, his sister Sabrina, Mathias, Hanna, and others to reinforce the Orion Shelter.
With over a million Devils and their knowledge by their side, it didn't take too long before they found special means to enhance the defensive structures of the Orion Shelter.
At the same time, they created a bunch of large-scale war weapons, including missiles that were strong enough to destroy an entire mountain range. The most important was to kill their opponents, not destroy the surrounding environment.
However, if the surrounding area wouldn't be able to endure the highly destructive attacks, it was unlikely for Originals and Ascenders to achieve the same. At least, Originals and Ascenders who had yet to ascend godhood wouldn't have an easy time.
Nial thought that the Great War wouldn't be a problem for the time being. His worry was more about the future.
He didn't really want the Great War to escalate too much. It would already be bothersome to fight a bunch of Divine Gods. However, fighting the Primordial races and Ancient races, in addition to countless other races, was not exactly something Nial had wished for.
He would rather have a boring tee party with all of them than fighting them with their lives on the line. Unnecessary grudges would be given birth to the moment Nial, his Devils, and subordinates would start their killing spree.
Thus, while being deep in thought, and focused on both the digestion of the Gods' corpses and the reinforcement of the defensive lines of the Orion Shelter, Nial didn't even notice that there was something inside the corpses of the Gods that didn't belong there.
If Nial's full focus would have been on the happenings inside the Heart of Gluttony, it wouldn't have been a problem. He could have perceived the tiny golden particles that were not digested by the Heart of Gluttony.
He wouldn't have missed that the golden particles were gathering in the center of the Heart of Gluttony, and he would have been able to do something about the things that were about to happen!
However, being too focused on several tasks at the same time, and worrying about everything, Nial missed out on the things that were happening right in front of him, or precisely, inside him.
The faint and tiny golden particles were slowly exposed after the layers of the gods' corpses were digested. It was a process that required a few months, yet, Nial never really noticed anything.
He was too busy trying his best to reinforce the Orion Shelter, and worrying about the future that he only noticed something was wrong when it was already too late.
Thousands of golden particles had gathered in the center of Nial's Heart of Gluttony. They were naturally attracted to each other and pulled one another closer to each other.
The golden particles were compressed and turned into a swirl of energy before they began to transform into a tiny seed.
The seed was not even the size of the Odyssey seed when Nial had first awoken his Origin. However, when Nial realized that something had been given birth inside his Heart of Gluttony, he was confused.
At first, he didn't think too much about it. He didn't know everything about his Cursed Divinity, the Heart of Gluttony, or the Cursed Divine Ability, Devour. There were bound to be things he would only find out by experimenting.
This was more than enough reason to be rather unbothered about the seed that had manifested in his Heart of Gluttony. The seed didn't seem to do anything, and Nial chose to pay more attention to it.
However, what he realized too late was that the effect of the seed had already taken effect.
The more he worked the more easily he grew tired.
Gods didn't have to sleep because they could feed on their cultivated energy. It was not normal for Gods to feel the need to eat, sleep, or drink something. Some Gods would still eat something because the dishes they ate were delicious and highly nutritious.
However, none of them usually slept. Rather than sleeping, one could consider cultivating as something comparable.
Gods only rested when they cultivated, and that was more than enough.
Under normal circumstances, this was more than enough.
But Nial faced a weird situation. He grew extremely tired over the period of a month.
For the first time in a very long period, he wanted to give himself a small present, some rest to return back much stronger than before.
He felt like he deserved some rest.
Then he fell asleep.
A mere moment later, the golden seed began to glow brightly, root out, and connect to the Cursed Divinity and Nial's entire being.
Afterward, everything changed forever.
