God Eating

* Overview

**God Eating** was a skill obtained after successfully analyzing the God-Eating Mask. He had to wear the mask to cast it. Actually, there were three skills. The first one was to gain immunity toward all control on his soul. If he wore this mask back then, even Manu wouldn't be able to cast Soul Shackles, but he couldn't expose the artifact in front of Manu. However, Chen Rui remembered afterward that he should be able to isolate the control of [Soul Shackles] if he wore the mask. Yet, in that way, he could only use his identity as "Aguile".

The second skill was to devour all spirit, magic power and soul attacks, but it could only be used once every seven days. The last skill was Demonic Flies Transformation, gaining immunity toward one physical attack. It could only be used once a day.

## Description

Chen Rui stood up slowly. He felt that it was no longer a mask on the face, but a part of his body that could be retracted freely. A new "fruit" was born on the skill tree. God Eating (extra skill):

1. Immune to soul control (passive).
2. Devours all spirit, magic and soul attacks (active; limited to once every seven days; current usage is 1/1).
3. Demonic Flies Transformation, turning and scattering body into countless demonic flies, and becomes immune to all physical attacks (active; limited to once a day; current usage is 0/1).

## Effect

Originally, Chen Rui just wanted to use the gluttonous vine to attract Sabrina's attention. Unexpectedly, gluttonous vines with entangle, spreading, and devouring properties actually had such a magical effect. Although it was impossible to truly destroy the Blue Charm Territory, it was enough for him to free his hand to cast a skill that he rarely used – God Eating!

Although Sabrina was destroying the vines, she had been paying attention to Chen Rui's movements. Suddenly, she saw a strange mask appearing on his face. Immediately after, the water elemental power and her spirit went out of control and surged toward the mask as if they were devoured by some ancient ferocious beast. It couldn't be stopped at all.

The "pillars" of the Blue Charm territory were the water elemental power and spirit. Once the pillars were sucked away, the remaining power naturally couldn't support the entire territory. It immediately disintegrated.

In the blink of an eye, the blue mist became extremely thin. Sabrina's real body had also appeared as she could no longer hide within her territory or make clones. She felt a strong fatigue and weakness which was clearly a sign of deficit caused by her territory being devoured.

She never thought that her territory would be broken by someone like that. Besides, it was by a Great Demon King without the power of territory! *What kind of talent is that?! Oh right! Devour...*

## Story

A prompt appeared in his mind: "Unknown spirit power detected, convert into aura?" Chen Rui quickly confirmed the conversion. The amount of aura increased rapidly, and his mind cleared up slightly. However, the spirit seemed to have intelligence as it could sense his "devouring". The spirit surged in great volumes in Chen Rui's direction. There were buzzing sounds in Chen Rui's mind. He felt like a lone boat on a surfy sea. The speed of conversion could not keep up with the speed of the surging spirits. Besides the time he faced Glorfin's Demon Overlord level spirit, it was still the first time this phenomenon occurred.

Chen Rui could have used the power of Star Devouring, but the amount of spirit was too huge. Although its quality was slightly weaker than Glorfin's level at that time, its amount was endless. If he used the power of Star Devouring rashly, it would definitely overflow. He could only use Star Conversion again to absorb it. The Star Conversion already couldn't withstand the initial Demon Overlord level spirit, plus the treasure's bizarre power, it would definitely cause his consciousness to completely collapse. He would become a monster controlled by instinct.

The bizarre power of the "treasure" seemed to be controlled by a person. That person was targeting him. He wanted to completely destroy him, the "dangerous person" who could devour spirit power in this hall. The spirit power came one wave after another endlessly. You can devour right? Then I'll let you devour until you've had enough!

An idea suddenly passed through Chen Rui's mind. That's right, excess spirit! <Deep Analysis>!

Now, solving the God-Eating Mask every day had become a compulsory course. Since Athena had not completely mastered the skill of concealing her vibe and controlling combat power, Chen Rui left the Evil Blue Tear behind when he left to prevent people from discovering her peak Demon King level power and attracting unnecessary trouble. Chen Rui could only use <Deep Analysis> twice a day now. Its progress was still stuck at 90%. After using it twice last night, it finally reached 91%. It should only be used after 24 hours, otherwise it would cause severe side effects of spirit power exhaustion. However, he now simply had a surplus of spirit that was at the brink of explosion, how could he still be afraid of exhaustion?

Chen Rui thought of this and immediately turned on <Deep Analysis>. Fortunately, <Deep Analysis> unceremoniously "expropriated" this foreign spirit power. The feeling of inflation instantly decreased by half. Although the spirit power kept flowing continuously, after half an hour, <Deep Analysis> drained it all...

The effect of the skill <Deep Analysis> was directly proportional to the strength and purity of the spirit. This strange foreign spirit had a much higher purity than Chen Rui himself. The progress bar for analyzing the God-Eating Mask that was progressing slowly began to change, 92%, 93%... 100%!

It's finally complete!

Just when the analysis progress reached 100%, in the Super System's solar system, the suspended mask with Chen Rui's face suddenly emitted a strong light, and it even almost covered the burning fiery "sun" at the center.

"Boom", the God-Eating Mask suspended in the void shattered and turned into specks of stardust that scattered without a trace. However, this was not the end. At the same time, a mask image appeared on the face of Chen Rui's 3D human figure on the status bar in the Galaxy Divinity Temple.

In the hall, Chen Rui who was lying on the ground opened his eyes. The God-Eating Mask appeared on his face. This mask was a little different from before. It was fully equipped with a nose and mouth. The mouth seemed to be able to move. It slowly opened like a whale drinking water and swallowed up as much of the overwhelming spirit as possible.

This devour was not Star Devouring nor Aura Conversion, but the power of the mask itself!

This time it was the seemingly endless powerful spirit power that was exhausted. Under the horrifying devouring power of the God-Eating Mask, it began to lack the strength to continue. Right after, the giant mountain of black crystal coins changed. It became thinner, and it gradually turned into light smoke and disappeared.

The surrounding spirit power was greatly weakened, and the people who were originally affected by it gradually became sober. In fact, the battle was basically nearing its end. Only five people survived. Oh right, there was also Dodo who had just combined from pieces and fell onto the ground.
