Epic of Caterpillarchapter 966: ranking up! fighting... the world's will?!

.

.

.

After glancing over my stats, I felt proud of my own strength, but it was already time to evolve and become a Great Goddess, wasn't it? It would be the best way to end this day, which was already night by the way.

After that, we'll get through each Rank separately, perhaps. Though after becoming Rank 1 Great Goddess, I want to rest a bit and spend some time with my dears. So I will do it tomorrow.

Of course, all of it is inside of my Divine Realm, in the outside world a day in here is probably a few minutes… However, what makes me the angriest is that the World's Will sends me these Divine Trials, and it gets to see me each time… it is as if it were spying on me, and it really makes me mad.

Through the many times, I have fought Divine Trials and Heavenly Calamities, I have discovered that they always come infused with the World's Will… erm, well, "will".

These wills encompass an entire divine trial or heavenly calamity and control it by the will of the World's Will. These wills… can be suppressed or devoured.

I have done it already, several times, each time I devour these things, I suppress them.

So I began to think, could there be a way to destroy this will from the get-go? I mean, completely decimating it from the very beginning.

And I began to consider how there was this special formation that forced divine trials to become the main attribute of the user that was undergoing such trial, although this didn't work for heavenly calamities.

Couldn't I be able to make a formation where the heavenly calamity ends up being suppressed somehow? I always wondered how I could pull it out… Suppressing it from the World's Will inside of it and simply making them "ownerless" so they would emerge and do nothing other than becoming my attribute particles!

Although in the end, I don' think it is that likely.

For now, this will be left as just a thought, or perhaps a dream, while I eat dinner with my family, I also use another True Body Clone to reach faraway within my Divine Realm, in a mostly desertic area where there isn't anything much to be destroyed.

After that, I quickly activated several Path Jewel Abilities, deciding to remain as I am for now while coating myself in Barriers of Law and Fate Attributes…

I released the energy, opening one of the gates, as the power infused into my body quickly did the changes and…

Ding!

[Congratulations! You've ranked up Great Goddess Realm!]

[You've reached Rank 1 of the Great Goddess Realm!]

[Defeat the Heavenly Tribulation to advance further!]

[Summoning Heavenly Tribulation…]

BOOOM!!!

Suddenly, a thunderous sound resonated through my entire divine realm, as space itself opened wide and a gigantic figure emerged from it, of around 100 meters big, if not more!

The opening of space was incredibly brief to the point that it seemed as if this thing was summoned here directly.

And what was it?

Well, it was an enormous, mountain-sized mass of black sludge with twisting purple, red, and pink colors, with many crimson-red eyes spread across its body, and gigantic maws, while the monstrous creatures moved slowly, leaving everything on its path contaminated with deadly and poisonous miasma.

This was the Heavenly Tribulation, Great Miasma Sludge, as Chaos Attribute Heavenly Tribulation!

But isn't this one way too good for me? It can easily be consumed, and Chaos is my own attribute!

Unless… like the last time, this one comes with a trick?

Or perhaps the World's Will has given up on my cause and is just throwing me whatever stuff and this ended being the highest affinity tribulation?

Or maybe… it is to entice me and join it?

Or the last theory, that it might be loaded with some strange spell or power like Uranus corpse consumed by Miasma once had.

It is truly a mystery, although the most realistic would be that she intends to contaminate my vast divine realm, which is susceptible to miasma as it is made up of many elements, being a chaos attribute goddess doesn't mean that all the divine materials and divine beasts inside are not weak to it or the miasma it produces, so all of this could be quite possibly all for that purpose, like the other heavenly calamities that had once tried to destroy the tree.

And I have all these thoughts in a matter of a quarter of a second, as I quickly fly towards the Miasma and decide to activate the Dao of Transformation once more, or well, the tiny fragment, turning my other non-chaos attribute particles into 0.2 chaos attribute particles.

I decided to surprise the World's Will today, as I changed into the Abyssal Chaos Demon transformation, becoming a monstrous humanoid demon with many different-colored arms, covered with metallic armor of many dark colors, with extravagant decorations, and ten different and monstrous heads, large wings, giant claws, and three tails with the tips of heads as well.

The miasma sludge notices me as it tries to do an attack on me, and I receive it head-on, as it is quickly consumed by my Primordial Chaos.

Heh, I am Chaos itself, buddy, that trick won't really work on me!

However, the Miasma Sludge doesn't give up as easily as you would imagine, quickly charging more attacks towards me, shaping countless tentacles, and throwing them at me at fast speeds, as I devour them all for my own power, easily suppressing any sort of damage it could even deal with me.

In a flash, I reach it, grab it, and begin to consume it completely, slurping it all as if it were a mere snack!

"GGGRRYAARR!"

The Miasma Sludge struggles to fight back, as every attack it does ends up being easily consumed, but to no avail for you, you're a mere meal for someone like me!

Divine Trials, Heavenly Calamities, Heavenly Tribulations… All the same now, they're mere afternoon snacks, they're not even a challenge for me now!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Each of its tentacles hit my entire body, but each tentacle was easily eaten, no problem!

The monstrous creature screamed for the last time as it was completely consumed this time!

CHOMP!

A rush of the new power was infused into my very being, as dozens of attribute particles of Chaos began to strengthen me more and more, without stopping.

However, a sudden jolt reached my entire mind…

I knew it, there was a trick, this cunning World's Will always has some fucking trick!

Not everything can be nice, can't it? But don't worry, I guessed as much!

I quickly insert a large part of my consciousness into the inner parts of my soul, where the brilliant yellow-gold sea of Primordial Essence is, where I find a large mass of white light, this was surely the World's Will!

When my consciousness quickly emerges there as a mass of darkness, it quickly notices me and seems surprised… that surprised expression reminds me of her stupid son, the System Master.

"AH! What?! How were you able to detect me in time?" she roared, flashing with white light as she tried to suppress my consciousness.

FLAAASH!

However, I shielded my consciousness with my miasma and chaos, easily reflecting the light!

CLASH!

"I thought that there would be some trick behind such a nice and tasty snack, so there was you… A special will specifically be made to sneak into the innermost of my soul without me noticing so you could devour all my Primordial Essence slowly like a parasite, and beat me up, right?" I asked.

I think I guessed it right because the World's Will was surprised!

"Nnghh…! You monster, you're an error in this world! Why don't you accept your fate and perish?!" she roared, firing several spears of light against me, some that managed to reach my consciousness began to slowly disintegrate it!

Those attacks were deadly! But I quickly absorbed the primordial essence all around to heal myself in no time, as I countered on my own, firing weapon-shaped chaos projectiles!

Clash!

The World's Will promptly evaded, as I confronted her.

"Who would even want to sit down and perish?! What kind of stupid concept of life do you think people have? Even I who just slaughtered hundreds of Gods know that none of them would easily bend the knee to me and accept to kill themselves… How delusional are you?!" I roared, firing more attacks as she was finally hit by some, slowly fragmenting, and losing mass.

She tried to use my primordial essence to heal herself, but it was useless, I was in control of that essence, and I didn't let her use it!

Suddenly, she grew desperate.

"Well, how about this? Fine, I will let you live with your family… But become my servant, I can even help you become a Supreme Goddess and you can be my closest servant, with your power and mine… we could govern this world and easily suppress the other Supremes! How about that? I am willing to go this far just for you!" said the World's Will.

"What kind of stupid "join the dark side" offer is this? Very cliché, let me tell you…" I sighed.

"The dark side?! I am the World's Will itself! I am the brightest side, the side of the law, the side of fate, the side of order! I am Order and you… You're Chaos! You are a being that goes against my entire existence… yet… yet…! You are freely doing whatever you want in my world, the one I took so long to nurture and to make my own source of power!" roared the World's Will, getting all angry at me as if I were the source of all her problems… And well, yeah, maybe a bit. But not all of them!

We continued to fight. I used my innermost Primordial Chaos, while the World's Will used her innermost Primordial Law to fight, both of these attributes being the opposite of one another, although… I was also able to use Law for some reason.

Wouldn't she be able to, then?

Well, no matter the case, I have to destroy this will of hers and get her off my soul!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Our projectile continued to clash, as we continued to damage one another in a frenetic fight of wills and consciousness, my chaos consumed her law, but her law weakened my chaos and disintegrated it… it was a frenetic battle for who could reign supreme within this space, but she seemed to be pushing through somehow, and getting the high ground.

However, although many times I was disintegrating, by using my Primordial Essence, I slowly regenerated back, being able to keep up with the powerful will of such a monster as her!

"How resilient can you be to fight against my will like this?! Tch!" she roared, suddenly charging a highly concentrated cannon attack against me!

The beam of bright white light reached me, pushing me into the ground and crushing me into it!

CRAAAASH!

"Unnngghh…! Fuck! I am not joining any of your shitty factions, I am carving my own path, and I am going to surpass you! I won't stop until I can unchain my mother! And even then, I will keep going until I can have my revenge…!" I roared, firmly stating my will and perseverance, as the power of the Sins and Virtues within me flashed with my divinity, enhancing my entire power even further!

My darkness finally began to consume her white light, as she started to despair!

"You… Unchain your mother? So you already know about her…! Unngghh…! I bet… she hasn't told you about me, hasn't she?! Hah! I bet she didn't…!" said the World's Will.

"Eh? What does she have to say about you? I remember she said you were somewhat related to her, but so what?!" I asked.

"Heh… Such a flimsy mind… How can you not get it, little sister?" asked the World's Will, as she slowly disappeared…

Wait, what?

Little sister?!
