Courting Death System-Chapter 34: Walelur Omniversal World

Everyone in the underground cavern were pulled to a completely different place. It was a place with lots of water and they were inside the body, slowly losing their ability to breathe because there was no air inside the water. They struggled to swim to the surface but the water was just too heavy and they couldn’t. Soon, they committed ran out of breath, struggled, kicked, tried to beg for help but all efforts were futile.

Then, the scene shifted again but this time, there were even less people. These few people found themselves drifting in empty space. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing in sight except for darkness. Before they could wonder where they were, they realised there was no air, their bodies became agitated, their legs couldn’t sit still and started to kick, the body became itchy but itch was internal.

Their bodies became agitated so much from the lack of air that some peed themselves while suffering from a slow, painful death. Others committed suicide while only nine people were left, the same skinny people that looked down on Lucius.

One of these skinny figures took out a needle and threw it at a random direction and the illusion collapsed. Everyone inside the underground cavern was currently unconscious with robes drenched in sweat.

...

Lucius retracted his Aura after it didn’t accept the nine people sitting on their thrones plus Rombolos.

"Now that we’ve gotten the arrogance and disrespect out of the way, tell me, what did you bring me here for?" said Lucius disrespectfully. While with Old Yezi, Lucius had learnt that his explosive emotions made him a completely different place once activated, especially anger. Old Yezi often warned him to control his anger lest he gets himself killed but now, Lucius didn’t just fear death, the wanted to die.

[Boy, show some respect. You’re in the presence of the Poison Cult Grand Elders. Beings who can kill you many times over with just a thought!] said Rombolos.

"Shut the fuck up! No one’s talking to you!"

[You..!!!]

"We hear you have a Poison Physique, you also have the Rainbow Coloured Poison Frog as your pet, that much seems to be true. And lastly, did you really drink from the Source Of Poison?" asked the Grand Elder closest to the ground.

"Yes."

"Is the Source Of Poison still in that planet?"

"Probably. I don’t know if another person has already discovered it and took it away." answered Lucius.

"That’s great. It seems I missed a world with plenty of resources but fortunately you discovered it." said the skinny elder. He then raised his skinny and dry arm in the air and pushed it forward. What happened next surprised Lucius because the elder’s hand seemed to have pierced through space.

The elder then pulled back his hand and was holding something that looked like a beautiful marble.

"It looks like the Source Of Poison is still here." said the elder while looking at the marble on his palm. Lucius looked carefully at the marble and realised that it wasn’t a marble but a frickin planet. The planet that was three galaxies away.

’Assuming that the old man is the weakest of this bunch, just how strong is the person at the top.’ thought Lucius as he looked at the crimson eyed figure.

"Now, on to important business. We want to test if you truly have the Poison Physique and how strong it actually is. If it’s really powerful, we’ll give you a powerful Poison Scripture and a seat at the Council Of Grand Elders. You’ll obviously obtain the seat when you’re powerful like us. So, what do you say?"

"What’s a Scripture?" asked Lucius.

"A method of getting stronger."

"And are you also using this Scripture thing to grow stronger?"

"Yes. I’m also using the Poison Scripture, it’s because of it that I’ve reach my current level of power." answered the elder.

"Hahaha! You lying old bastard, do you think you can deceive me. I can clearly tell that you’re at a strength equal to that of a Marshall Knight or Mage Master. Old geezer, give me the real stuff or else we don’t have a deal!" said Lucius.

"Marshall Knight? Mage Master? What are talki... boy, I’ll give you what you want if you answer one last question of mine. What’s the name of this World?"

"Lumina Omniversal World obviously but I think I’m in the bad side of it. This place isn’t as organised and perfectly managed like in the cities."

"Hahaha! No wonder. Boy, you’re no longer in Lumina."

"What?! Then where am I?!"

"You’re now in the Walelur Omniversal World, one of the strongest Omniversal Worlds."

"Oh my goodness! Walelur Omniversal World? I thought only the Lumina Omniversal World existed, so there are others?!"

"Of course there exist other Omniversal World. I won’t dwell much on this topic but I will reveal a piece of valuable to you. Walelur Omniversal World is currently contending for the number one spot as the strongest Omniversal World. It’s competing with the Qi Omniversal World and Nopaew Omniversal World. A cultivation based World and a weapon intent based World. These three Worlds are the strongest."

"Holy Shit!" exclaimed Lucius.

"Old man, if this Walelur Omniversal World is so strong, why are you so weak?"

"Boy, it seems you’re still ignorant about reality. The strongest power systems don’t rely on the usage of Mana or Qi but Laws and Rules. Walelur Omniversal World is a Peak World where we all increase our strength by either comprehending Laws or Rules. By Lumina standards, I should be able to go pound for pound with a True Deity, in other words, a Royal Knight or Grand Mage."

"Wow, are these the realms above the Noble Knight and Noble Mage?" asked Lucius with burning eyes.

...

"Enough about the Lumen World, here, drop your blood on this. It will measure the strength of your physique if you truly have one and how much potential it has. It will absorb your blood and give us the results." said the skinny elder. He was tired of explaining irrelevant stuff to Lucius and just gave him a small, square based pyramid object.

The small object had a pointed end which Lucius used to pierce his thumb. As soon as blood started flowing out of the small wound, all the Poison Cult Grand Elders gazed at Lucius or his blood to be exact. Even the figure at the top looked at Lucius’s blood with burning eyes.

Lucius didn’t notice the change in atmosphere and dripped the blood on the small object. When the blood landed on the small object, the small square based pyramid didn’t even get the chance to absorb the blood before it was instantly destroyed.

’Oh shit! I completely forgot about this trait!’ thought Lucius as he looked at elders. The elders didn’t even look at him but the blood about to fall on the floor. When the blood landed on the floor, it corroded the floor, digging deeper and deeper into the ground and the ground couldn’t neutralise and absorb it like it did with all liquids in small quantity.

The few drops of blood then flew out of the ground and flew up, towards the scarlet eyed figure and floated calmly in front of him.

[Amazing! I’ve never seen blood with so much potent poison before. Not only that, it seems that this blood can cut anything physical. Boy, it seems like you’re more valuable than we expected. How about you become an Avatar of mine?] spoke the scarlet eyed man.
