Chapter 358: Order and Chaos
AalamThe benefits of a transcendent soul, the level above sublime, were far more than Aalam had hoped for, completely worth the absolutely ridiculous amount of resources required to obtain one—even if it didn’t allow for any extra classes beyond sublime soul’s two. First, a transcendent soul was far more pure than a sublime soul, increasing the natural base affinities of one’s race by a ridiculous amount and making the removal of impuriti...
Chapter 357: Transcendent Soul
Aalam“And thus ends the last harvest.” Aalam’s space element clone put away the heart and horn he’d just carved from Krysta’s father’s large draconic body while his other elemental clones did the same with Kilvorax’s brothers. “The subsidized faith energy will stop from now on, but your punishment is concluded.“You and your brothers now have a choice. You can either wait in your cages until my wife fully advances to A rank withi...
Chapter 356: Edi’s Problem
EdiEdi Tanorputra was frustrated.Almost everyone he was close to had already become an A rank.First had been Krysta La’Vordi and his master’s grandmother, Irena Krol. Then Nitya Chakrabarti and her husband, along with Javier Garcia. And this had been followed by so many others, including Edi’s own wife. By Aalam’s planet destroying laser, the only ones from his wife’s side of the family who hadn’t advanced to A rank were Edi’s own m...
Chapter 355: Gathering of Faith
GorilGoril Laan, the commander and sole A rank of the Bronze Legion, sighed as he looked at the bloody body of his grandson in front of him, one of the legion’s eight B rank subleaders and the coran who’d stabbed the Heavenly Blade in the back when the man had become too popular.And, as he noticed how none of his grandson’s wounds were on his front, he regretted his decision all those years ago.Orom Karendesh had been talented, far more tal...
Chapter 354: Tallia, Daughter of Primordius
MilaThe planet Hira had changed since she’d left it all those years ago.Instead of the natural landscape and low technology human settlements of her memories, half the planet’s land mass was covered in mega cities filled with buildings that at one time had been hundreds of floors high. And, instead of forests of trees mixed with deserts and other various ecological environments, almost everything was dust and ash.At one point, Hira’s human ...
Chapter 353: Dragons, Hearts, and Horns
AalamWith a huge amount of antimatter stored in his personal storage, kept from interacting with any matter by active use of his energy so no elder god could stop him from self-destructing, Aalam’s space element clone walked around Serpent’s Nest, the home planet of what had been the Divine Child’s faction and the Prime Material’s monster god faction before that. And, after taking about an hour to circumnavigate the planet’s defenses, h...
Chapter 352: Football, Reporters, and Priests
SavanWith their son in his arms, Savan and Amalia followed the Daughter of Space through a portal to what looked like a giant sports complex of some kind, where there were four huge stadiums close together around a central park with sixteen sports fields of the same size around them.The planet was A rank, which was impressive by itself, but each sports field had two teams of eleven facing off against each other—in some sport where there was a b...
Okay. I think we might have the final cover.
What does everyone think?
New Cover for Shadow of the Soul King
Here is the new cover. We're still working on the text parts, but the images are fully done!Does anyone have any recommendations for free fonts?
Chapter 351: Ya Savan
Savan“Is it true you once fought the Heavenly Spark Soul King?”Ya Savan, former priest of the Lady of Hellwater, frowned slightly as he looked out at the three hundred or so students in his class, all sitting above him in the seats of the lecture hall, his electric green eyes focusing on the student who’d asked the question. “No.“I led the Primordial Humans’ army in the War of the Chosen when the United Federation of Planets first com...
Chapter 350: Mantis Stalks the Cicada III
Arthur - Twelve Days After The Destruction of the Primordial Humans’ Round TableTwo broken wings, one annihilated leg, and a completely ruined set of tail feathers, unable to automatically heal due to almost completely exhausted energy reserves, these were Arthur’s remaining injuries after killing the Lady of Laws and the Eldritch Terrors’ elder god, but they barely registered in his mind.He’d finally done it. After planning for dozens of...
Chapter 349: Mantis Stalks the Cicada II
Quandra - Two Days After The Destruction of the Primordial Humans’ Round TableAppearing near the center of the Eldritch Terror’s main universe, Quandra channeled the yin and yang infused power of her core into a ball of energy over her right hand roughly the size of a planet. Then, in less than a second, she shrunk it down to the size of a city, and then to the size of a large fruit.At this point, the two broodmother gods and the 16 other Ter...
Chapter 348: Mantis Stalks the Cicada I
Kavon - Two Days After The Destruction of the Primordial Humans’ Round TableUsing his Laws and his Stealth skill, Kavon moved into the universe of the Eldritch Terrors, bypassing the large amorphous tentacles of the five Terror gods hovering in the empty space around the portal.Then, as quietly as he could, he began to take over the local Territory.Contact with the enemy was never simple, however, and one of the Terrors seemed to notice what he...
Chapter 347: Advancements, Frustrations, and Preparations
PrimordiusPrimordius looked down at his youngest daughter, one of his only two children still left alive, and decided not to kill her.This didn’t mean, however, that he would let her get up from where she was bowing down in front of him while he sat on what used to be his eldest child’s throne. No. He’d let her keep kneeling there for maybe a million years.Sure, the deaths of Halius, Lacarmus, Antonia, Gustavius, and the others were not her...
Chapter 346: Oath of the Bonded
Mila“I guess I’ll go first.” Aalam spoke up, taking both of Mila’s hands in his own, and his full attention was on her, partially so he could ignore everyone else in the room, lessening his nerves, and partially because he wanted to look at her.“I remember meeting you for the first time. Diana’d brought me to see my favorite author talk about his newest story, and you were behind us in line when we queued up to get our books signed....
Chapter 345: Mawage
Mila“Why’s he here?” Aalam teleported in front of Daevic, who, wearing a nice black suit like almost every other man in the room, had just entered the large main hall of the Imperial Cathedral on the Twelve Element Spirit Universe's B rank capital planet.“Um. I was invited.” Both from vision and sensing his aura, Mila could tell just how nervous Davic was, bordering on terror, and, from her position at the front of the cathedral wit...
Chapter 344: Karmic Trickster
Aalam“I am a magnificent bastard, manipulating the world around me while keeping to a strict set of personal rules.”Aalam’s wife began speaking the words of her fifth oath on an A rank planet in one of the universes he had taken from the Collector, the two of them the only living beings in the entire universe.“I am a classy cat-burgler, taking from those I judge evil to enrich myself via guile and artifice but never from those I deem mora...
Chapter 343: Fate of the Scarabs
Linvorax“Subservience, organ harvesting, and eventual release? Or enslavement, organ harvesting, and eventual death?”As the Heavenly Spark Soul King looked over the twelve of them dispassionately, Linvorax, the Heavenly Scarab of Life, felt his entire body start to shake. But his brothers, Parvorax and Kilvorax, appeared to feel calmer than when the man in front of them had been slaughtering gods more powerful than them with ease, their auras...
Chapter 342: Divine Massacre
WadeFive days later, the next god died.Goraline, the Radiant Beauty, a master of the fire element with the Courtesan divine role and the half-human half-succubus who’d followed their lord since the beginning, had been in one of the other cut off universes when they were trapped, joining them a day later. And now she’d been cut in half, her body severed from head to groin by the God of War’s spear, the Heavenly Spark Soul King appearing behi...
Current Proposal for New Artwork
As I believe I've mentioned before, I've been working on getting artwork for a future book 1 on Amazon. What do you guys think about the proposal I'm about to pay for to have fully created?
Chapter 341: Chained
MilaPerival had made contracts with many gods other than the Primordial Humans, but Mila hadn’t had time to break them all, not before she had to self destruct. At the same time, however, other than the Master of the Eternal Forge, the Lady of Hellwater, and the Lord of Twilight Flame, only one god who Perival had a contract with was important to their plan.The Magician was one of seven gods outside the Primordial Humans faction to have taken o...
Chapter 340: Trap
Aalam Aalam took a second to center himself as Mila broke the God of War’s bond with the Primordial Sovereign so Aalam could take over theAalamAalam took a second to center himself as Mila broke the God of War’s bond with the Primordial Sovereign so Aalam could take over the god’s Territory, including three of the seven universes that connected his former empire to the Prime Material. Then, only having a few minutes before he collapsed fro...
Chapter 339: True Laws vs True Laws
HaliusThe Mistress of Oaths and Deception’s skill with faith energy was at least at the same level as Halius’s own, but her Laws were weak and her energy, despite convincingly pretending to be a god, was only at the A rank level. So, given enough time, Halius was sure he’d be able to send his energy through the bonds of the clone he’d captured to her main body, enabling him to truly kill her.Her husband, however, didn’t give him that ti...
Chapter 338: Possession
XaraAalam’s afterlife was a much nicer place than the System space Xara had been living in since her death.First, it was far, far larger, basically a universe of its own, filled with numerous sub-dimensions all designed by groups of the dead, each with multiple planets. And, due to Aalam not having much interest in corralling most of the resident population, there was so much variety. One dimension she’d visited was filled with planets shaped...
Chapter 337: God of War
HaliusHalius, Humanity’s God of War, knew he was missing something, likely multiple things.Some of the United Federation of Planets’ goals were obvious.First, they wanted the gods of the Prime Material to enter the side universes they’d taken over so whatever they planned would happen there, beyond the easy reach of the Elder Gods. This much was obvious given how prepared they had seemed for the invasion, their people nowhere to be found. B...
Chapter 336: Watcher’s Fall
MilaAfter testing, it seemed God rank contracts were powerful enough that not even gods could block their punishments, so, if Mila forcibly cancelled one, tricking the other party’s soul into thinking they were at fault, it made almost all other preparations redundant. And this was incredibly useful new information, as, while Perival didn’t have any contracts with living gods where the punishment was death, there were about two dozen other go...
Chapter 335: Wisdom’s End
CarinaThe divine residence of the Undying Pheonix was amazing. Created by Steel Swamp Sorin, the monster deity the Sky Lord—now one of the more powerful independent gods—had hunted down to meet the requirements for advancing his classes to God rank, it was a marvel of magical engineering. Containing a subspace dominated by Samsara Fire Trees, it could block out most forms of external sensing, and it had a fully active defense system completel...
Chapter 334: Vacation Results
AalamThe pain from his soul regrowing hadn’t been enjoyable, but taking a vacation very much had been.His main body had focused on crafting, trying to trigger his Oath of the True Crafter’s sudden enlightenment effect, which had been fun. He’d figured out how to boost the efficiency of Steel Swamp Sorin’s favored energy reactor design by 4.36%, he’d finalized the creation of the last two Divine grade skills for his Afterlife Ruler class...
Chapter 333: Operation God Season
Mila“Come on, just a little bit of romance. You’ve been married over ten thousand years, and I’ve never even seen a kiss.” Nana Xara, as she was wont to do whenever Mila wasn’t blocking her, started to complain again. “I’m so bored, and living in your husband’s afterlife has lost me access to all System controlled media!”Mila, however, as she was wont to do, completely ignored her master.They’d moved Nana Xara’s soul as soon...
Chapter 332: When She Smiles
PrimordiusAs Primordius sat on the planet sized skeletal arthropod he’d just killed, a former undead elder god who’d entered into the Primordial Thunder Universe, he decided his plan had worked better than he’d expected but not as well as he’d hoped.Likely due to no longer having any eyes in the Prime Material after his grandson’s actions, only one undead elder god had entered the Primordial Thunder Universe when he’d pretended to ret...
