"Replicate!"

[Replication Successful!]

[Congratulations to the Originator for obtaining a no-grade treasure, Devouring God Essence!]

"No-grade Treasure?"

Alex was stunned. He frowned slightly; his eyes filled with confusion. He had seen treasures of all kinds, but never one without a grade at all.

Before he could even take a look at the information of Devouring God Source, he heard a cold shout.

"Hey, are you deaf?"

The sudden cold shout snapped Alex out of his thoughts. He turned his head slightly and saw Draven Voine. Draven's lean figure was radiating killing intent.

Alex simply stared at him for a second without a single frown. He didn't speak. Instead, he shrugged lightly, as if Draven's presence didn't matter at all. Then he turned his gaze back toward the rubble around him. He was far more interested in finding the Originflare Crystal and using the key to unlock the hidden inheritance of the half-immortal.

Draven's face darkened instantly. Being ignored like that was something he had never experienced before. His aura erupted, and he glared at Alex as if looking at a dead man.

"What? Are you looking down on me?" he said in a cold voice that carried both anger and disbelief.

Alex still didn't answer. However, his calmness only made Draven more furious. Draven's expression twisted with rage. "Fine! Since that's how you want it to be… You can just die!"

Without hesitation, Draven launched himself forward like a shadow. His fist was immediately wrapped in heavy energy as it tore through the air with a deafening sound. He aimed straight for Alex's head, putting all his strength into the blow.

But that was his biggest mistake.

Had he used the Devouring God Source's power to devour Alex from a distance, he might have stood a chance or at least created an opportunity to escape. But to charge in recklessly and try to punch Alex directly? That was the worst possible move he could have made.

The moment Draven's fist was about to hit, Alex's expression turned cold. He raised his arm slowly. Immediately, chaos energy emerged from his body and started spiraling around his hand. The world seemed to freeze for an instant as a faint golden light flashed in Alex's eyes. The ground beneath them cracked, and an invisible force erupted between the two.

Draven's punch never landed. Instead, his entire body trembled as if he had slammed into an immovable mountain.

The air around Alex grew heavy in just a few seconds. The air got so heavy that it seemed the entire world was pressing down. A terrifying pressure burst out from his body, sweeping through the area like a raging storm. The ground cracked beneath his feet, and space itself trembled faintly.

"This...?"

Draven's eyes widened in disbelief. His punch froze midair, and before he could even react, his knees buckled under the crushing weight.

Thud!

Making a thud sound, he was forced down, kneeling before Alex as cold sweat poured down his face. His heart trembled violently as he couldn't help but think. "This pressure… Impossible!"

A worst-case scenario emerged in Draven's mind.

Alex, on the other hand, remained standing indifferently.

How could a mere Death Domination Stage warrior even think of going against a True Divinity?

Alex glanced down at Draven, who was on his knees, trembling uncontrollably under the pressure of his aura. His body was shaking as if it could collapse at any moment.

Alex slowly shook his head and said softly, "Why must people like you always act before thinking?"

He lifted his hand slightly, and the invisible pressure vanished. Draven collapsed completely and started coughing and gasping for breath. In this short period of time, his entire body had already been drenched in cold sweat. For a few seconds, he didn't dare move or even look up.

Ignoring him, Alex turned his focus to the information panel of Devouring God Source.

[Name: Devouring God Essence

Grade: No Grade/Upgradable

Detail: A mysterious essence born from the origin of devouring. It has no fixed grade or limit. It can evolve endlessly alongside its master's growth. When fully integrated, it fuses with the user's body and soul to form the Devouring God Body, which is one of the most fearsome forbidden physiques in the entire universe. The Devouring God Essence can consume treasures, energy, laws, and even worlds to evolve. However, only one whose body and soul can withstand the true concept of 'devouring' can awaken its real power."

??

P.S.: The Devouring God Essence is said to be a fragment of the Primordial Abyss that once tried to consume the entire universe but failed.

"Devouring God Essence can actually grow endlessly?" Alex raised his brows in shock. "It is no wonder it has no grade. Moreover, after integrating with Devouring God Essence, one can obtain Devouring God Body, which actually has the power to devour everything, including worlds. What kind of physique is this?"

Although Alex was shocked, he had no choice but to admit this physique's terror. It is no wonder this physique is called one of the most fearsome forbidden physiques in the entire universe.

Suddenly, Alex recalled something.

"Isn't my Godfiend Phantom Body also one of the most powerful physiques in the entire universe?"

Alex obtained Godfiend Phantom Body after unlocking 1% of his sealed memory. This physique, as well as Ancient Sovereign Bloodline, Supreme Undying Soul, Silver Flame Sword Intent, and many other treasures, were sealed by Alex in his previous life along with 10% of his memories.

All he needed was to unlock the sealed memories, and he could obtain all those treasures.

Godfiend Phantom Body was something Alex obtained in his previous life after refining the Godfiend Phantom Poison with the Source of the World.

It was at this time that Alex noticed that his system had already introduced "universe" a long time ago. When he had looked at the information of Godfiend Phantom Poison, his system had already told him about the true universe, not a sealed Galaxy.

But after that, the Replication System always worked based on the knowledge and information of this galaxy, not the "universe".

Why?

Alex was confused, but he soon seemed to understand everything.

"Perhaps it is because of the memories of my last life. In my last life, I was not born inside this sealed galaxy."

Only this can explain why his system perhaps 'glitched' for a short time.
