Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 976: Using A World As A Resource.



Chapter 976: Using A World As A Resource.

Without guidance, breaking through into the sixth realm was extremely difficult. One needed to comprehend how Heaven worked with the surroundings and transcend it. The reason for the name Transcendence Realm was that the cultivators managed to become one with their surroundings and truly transcend mortality. 

A creature made out of Heavenly Energy that peeked at the truth of the universe, that was a Transcendent Level cultivator. 

Tatyana crossed her arms and got thoughtful. \'I guess I lose nothing from trying, right? This body is already at the peak of the mortal realms either way.\'

Tatyana was not planning to break through. Not that she could, as she still lacked a large amount of accumulation before doing so. Regardless, even if she could, reaching the Transcendence Realm would mean that she couldn\'t enter Distancia anymore. 

"Let\'s see~. Can I summon you?" Tatyana started gathering energy, slowly filling her surroundings with Death energy. 

This planet was a heavily Yang-attributed world. After all, being so close to the Sun meant that the Yin element could barely even exist. 

However, there was something that everything needed, and that was balance.

Therefore, where such a deep and profound concentration of Yang energy existed, Yin energy would only need a spark to swallow that light. 

Tatyana knew how to create that spark. Her eyes started glowing red as her aura skyrocketed. Tatyana\'s presence expanded several kilometers around her and continued growing outward and accelerating with each second.

Her Death Attribute devoured the Yang attribute of the world and caused it to grow exponentially. 

Tatyana smiled as her red eyes glowed with an insane spark. "World, how about I use you as a source of energy for my skill? Would you like that?"

RUMBLE!

The second she spoke, a massive tribulation cloud appeared above her, making Tatyana laugh aloud. "You want to resist!? HAHAHAHAHAHA! PUNY HEAVENS."

With her exclamation, the black clouds above her gathered a terrifying lightning bolt that would probably split Distancia in half, and then, it fell.

Space in its way got annihilated as the lightning bolt rushed at the mortal on the world\'s surface. 

However, Tatyana was not a normal mortal. Her body was the [Divine Lich Empress Body], a body created from Death Essence so pure that a single particle of it would probably annihilate life in an entire world.

With a shout that reverberated across the world and beyond, Tatyana chanted. "[Divine Lich Empress\' Absolution: Underworld\'s Descent]!" 

Everything came to a stop, the lightning in the sky stopped, the roaring magma around Tatyana stopped, and even the time flow around them seemed to slow down to a crawl. 

Behind Tatyana, a gigantic pair of gates appeared. The obsidian gates, decorated with an arch made of skulls of all types of creatures, opened with a rumbling sound that made the entire world quake. 

From the Underworld, a black lightning bolt several times larger than Heaven\'s attack bolted out and crashed into it, blasting not only the heavenly lightning bolt but the entire Heavenly Tribulation above Tatyana apart.

Tatyana grinned widely as if her lips would suddenly split and reach from ear to ear. "Fighting against me!? You are too young for this!" 

Then, using the egregious amounts of Death Energy that poured out from the Underworld, Tatyana pushed her current body beyond anything she had done before with it. 

Her smile disappeared, and her face turned solemn. Her dress changed, becoming the royal red dress she wore with her main body, and the tiara appeared on her head. 

The green gems adorning her body released a phantasmal glow, while Tatyana\'s presence became imperial. 

As if a goddess had descended, the Death Energy around her bowed to her will. Then, her chant started. 

"You who had peered at the secrets of the Heaven and understood them." 

The Death Energy in the surroundings expanded, covering more and more of the world with each second. Like an unstoppable tide, everything that it touched died. Moreover, it was not only the surface that was affected. It also pierced deep into the world, swallowing everything like an unstoppable force. 

"You who, after death, continued your insatiable hunt for knowledge." 

Tatyana\'s voice rumbled throughout the world like the command of an absolute being. 

Heaven, who was trying to resist, could do nothing as the enormous Underworld Gates behind Tatyana suppressed it to the point of helplessness. 

As Tatyana\'s aura increased, it transcended. When the entire world was covered in Death Energy, and Tatyana controlled that energy, her energy reserves were already well into the Transcendence Realm. 

Using the ridiculous amounts of Death Energy around her, she used her constitution, [Death Devouring Seer Embodiment], to swallow a large part and transform it into Fate energy. 

The Death Empress waved her hand, and her own Fate Threads appeared right before her. She reached towards them and grabbed one of them. 

"You who peered through Fate."

Her fingers moved, and the Fate thread was sliced. A turbulence occurred around Tatyana as she severed one of her own Fate threads. 

"You who created Life."

Tatyana reached out and pierced her own heart, bursting with blood and life disappearing from her body. However, with her dying breath, she continued.

"You who traversed Space." 

Behind Tatyana, a gigantic portal appeared, darker than the void, like an all-consuming maw. From it, a powerful Life Energy surge surrounded Tatyana, healing her dying body enough to continue her chant.

"You who burnt the Sun."

From the portal, a terrifying flame surged, consuming half her body.

"You who froze the Moon."

Similarly, a freezing wind flowed forward, freezing Tatyana\'s other half. 

Even then, while flames and ice were consuming her body, her chant continued uninterrupted as the life energy regenerated her body.

"You who gave meaning to the Stars."

Tatyana\'s aura inflated, exploding outward like an unstoppable tide and making the earth below her sink from the pressure she was releasing. 

Then, the Death energy that had consumed the world started rolling back toward her.

"You who ruled Death!" 

When the Death energy arrived and got absorbed by her body, unlike a living being would, Tatyana\'s body healed at a terrifying rate. In just a few seconds, all the injuries she received disappeared while something else materialized around her body.

A dark aura, darker than a starless night. 

Her eyes glowed red, illuminating the darkness like two bright red suns, and she chanted with all her being. 

"You who, even with that Hegemony, is under MY command. Awaken, [Sovereign Of The Underworld: Heaven\'s Calamity Overlord]."

Then, the World died. 

As all the auras that had accumulated around Tatyana condensed into the portal behind her, an aura of death so thick that it made even Tatyana have some difficulty breathing spread around. 

From the portal, a being… no, a ruler appeared. It was a being with such a profound aura that no one would think of facing it. 

He wore a deep black tunic with skeletal accessories adorned with gorgeous imagery of the elements. His eyes glowed with a ghostly green glow, like all of those that fell under Tatyana\'s rule. 

A skeletal face that looked neither human nor beast-like. It was a pristine white skull that forced anyone looking at him to lower their gaze. 

Tatyana\'s strongest summon and master, the Heaven\'s Calamity Overlord.

Tatyana smiled faintly. "Long time no see, old man."

The Overlord\'s voice was mystical and deep as if he was speaking in the language of the stars. "You killed a world and a Heaven to summon me. Speak, this is too small of an offering to keep me around for long."

Tatyana crossed her arms, looking up at the three-meter-tall being. "I wanted to ask you, can you help me create a formation in this place to cover the Solar System from the Divines? Oh, and by the way, tell me where I am. I could connect this place with the Sky Continent in the past, but that was blindly poking a hole in the universe to carry over a few people." 

The Overlord looked at Tatyana and snorted. "Just that? You killed an entire world just for that?"

Tatyana blinked cutely and approached with a coy expression. "Won\'t you help your hard-working disciple~?" 

The old man flicked Tatyana\'s forehead, but instead of a gentle tap, Tatyana literally flew away like a shooting star. The Overlord turned around and extended his skeletal hand.

Then, from the other side of the world, having circled it, Tatyana appeared and slammed against his hand.

BOOM!

"..." The Overlord commented with a sigh. "You are so weak."

Tatyana, who had her facial bones broken, couldn\'t really speak, but she protested with her spiritual sense. \'COULD YOU NOT SMASH MY PRETTY FACE AS THE FIRST GESTURE YOU DO TOWARDS ME AFTER SO MANY MILLENNIA!?\'

The Overlord naturally ignored Tatyana\'s indignant screams. "If that\'s the only thing you want, sure. I can do it with ease." Then, he looked around and hummed. "So, where is the Little Princess? I want to see her." 

His aura pulsed outward, covering the entire Solar System in an instant, and he hummed. "I see… Huh? She is poisoned?" 

Tatyana realized that she forgot to say it and said. "WAIT!"

The Overlord, who was about to heal Yasenia and annihilate the one who did it, paused and looked at her. "What\'s wrong? The Little Princess is poisoned, and you dare not heal her!? Do you want me to smack your real body\'s butt until it is red for a hundred years!?"

Tatyana stuttered. "D-Don\'t do that! Do you know how awkward it was sitting like an Empress the last time that you did that? It hurts like hell!"

The Overlord sighed. "So, what\'s wrong?"

Tatyana cleared her throat and explained. "The person who inflicted the poison is already in my grasp and is being tortured. We were searching for a man called Ayanduin. I want to find him so that he can become Yasenia\'s lead merchant, but don\'t say this to Yasenia." 

The Overlord rubbed his skeletal chin and guessed the rest. "I see. You have not caught that man yet because you want Yasenia to fend for herself and do it by herself. Although… Ayanduin is quite strong for Yasenia to face, right? He is in the Transcendence Realm." 

Tatyana exclaimed with a smile. "Aya~! That\'s unexpected! So it turns out that my dearest daughter will need things other than brute force to convince him to join her group!"

Speechless, the Overlord said. "Hey, your happiness is too palpable and annoying. If you can be happy, you should be training or something." 

Tatyana humped. "Either way, your time is running out! Can you do what I asked you before you disappeared and I killed this world for nothing?"

"Sigh… [Star Concealing Formation]." Then, he waved his hand, and the entire solar system got covered into a concealing formation. 

"Hmm… You are actually in the lowest Heavenly layer? How did you come here?"

Tatyana was about to answer, but the Overlord\'s eyes flashed white and he said. "Ah. Those demons? Why didn\'t you call me?" 

Tatyana pouted. "Can you let me answer!"

"No. I want to go and present myself to your daughter… daughters?"

Tatyana blinked a few times. "Oh? You discovered Estrella!" She grinned. "Isn\'t she cute!?"

"Attributeless…" The man\'s eyes glowed dangerously. "Heavenly Influence?" Then, he scoffed. "No wonder you chose this way of summoning me. Taking a little revenge?"

Tatyana smiled coldly. "Can\'t I? Heaven makes my daughter like that. Well, I\'ll kill one of its children in return." 

"Hahahaha." He laughed and patted Tatyana\'s head as if she were a naughty child. "Great job." 

Tatayan giggled, and she hummed. "Hey." 

The Overlord looked at her, and Tatyana smiled. "Thanks for everything."

"Oh?" His skeletal face gained a semblance of a smile, and he gently patted her head. "Don\'t worry, little one." Two orbs, one flaming red and another one black with starlight, appeared in Tatyana\'s hand. "Here are the coordinates of your location. Also, be careful and don\'t underestimate the Lower Heavens. There are many rogue cultivators that want to become the kings of a dirt mound." 

Tatyana nodded seriously. "I will."

Then, the Overlord disappeared, leaving one sentence behind. "I hope you summon me properly next time. I want to hold my granddaughter and great-granddaughter."

Tatyana laughed. "Sure~." She looked at the flaming orb that appeared in her hand and smiled. "Thanks for collecting the Natural Treasures~."
