The Strongest Body Customization System-Chapter 87: Shattered Plane

"Dark Buster!"

Just as Ian was about to finish Zero, a dark energy coat film enveloped Silver Zero. With a whoosh, Zero’s entire existence seemed to disappear. Ian’s fist hit empty air, the very fabric of space shattered with his punch, causing time-and-space tornadoes to form.

"Where did that bastard go? Adam, can you locate him?"

At this time, Adam had a frown on his face. A change from the ever emotionless face that he had. "What a trouble. Zero had gone to the Shattered Plane," as he said this, his face looked troubled.

"Shattered Plane? What the hell is that?" Ian appeared beside Adam with a questioning tone. He exited his God Form, back to his base form.

Adam stared at Ian for a second, curious how he could turn from mortal to a god in just an instant, seamlessly. Even with his accumulated knowledge of millions of years, he hasn’t encountered a mortal who has achieved godhood through transformation. After all, most of those in the God Realm have "God" as a base or normal.

He had also determined that Ian’s power on God Transformation could rival peak True Gods, which was quite unbelievable for a newly ascended god like him. This was the reason why Silver Zero, who possessed the power of a god without Divine Ki, ultimately lost to Ian and almost got killed.

"I’m curious about you God Transformation, but you can choose not to answer, though if you want. Everyone has secrets, including me..." Adam voiced out his thoughts which made Ian look at him in a new light. "Well, to explain. The Shattered Plane is a realm outside the Universe. It’s where the souls of the deceased usually rest before going to the Underworld. As a Frost Freak, I’ve heard a rumor in the past that once they reach a certain threshold of strength, they could travel to that planet once every ten years. Though they would need to spend fifty years there to be able to come back.

Ian understood at this moment. A wary smile appeared on his face. "So that evil bastard chose to escape even after all the big talk. Even with his pride, he chose humiliation to survive. Well, that’s kinda wise and ironic..." As he finished, he felt that his efforts had been wasted. Not to mention, he had revealed his strength for nothing.

Now, Adam knew about his God Transformation trump card. The only comfort was at least, he still had his Nether Divine Ki as a secret... Or maybe not?

"When you transform, just now. I felt a familiar aura from you." Adam broke Ian from his dazed thoughts.

"Familiar aura?"

"Yes, that of the Former Main God, Nine Path Kratos!"

At the mention of the name, Adam’s face turned inexplicably fearful before it returned to calm, A speed at which made Ian doubt whether he had just hallucinated just now.

’Ohhh... So the Nine Paths Bloodline. To think it would have such an origin. I knew it had to be something extraordinary. But to think it’s connected to the highest position, Main God...’

"It must be from the fruit that I’ve eaten..."

Ian offered a simple explanation, but it was basically the truth.

...

"Damn monkey! To actually force me to escape like this. I’ll make sure to pay this humiliation a hundred times in the future!"

Zero stumbled on the ground weakly. Now, with his current state, maybe even an ordinary soldiers under his command might be able to kill him. The use of the Dark Buster had damaged his bloodline severely and in his estimates, he might need to to recuperate for ten years.

He couldn’t help but curse Ian on his heart. The feeling of defeat even with his Silver Zero, the form that he believes should be the strongest, had loat miserably, it was a definite slap on his face.

As he recalled the battle, Zero’s furious face returned to calm. ’Strange, now that I have time to think. Why can’t I sense his energy? His energy were like those even below city-level yet there’s no doub that he had surpassed me.’

’Is it something to do with God Transformation he was talking about the man with him?’

Of course, he had noticed Adam who had also given him a sense of threat. A feeling of danger that he had never felt even from Ian. That’s why he didn’t dare to provoke Adam.

’What a mysterious duo. To think there were existences of Gods in this Universe...’

’Tch...’ Zero couldn’t help but click his tongue. A menacing smile crept on his face. ’Gods? So what? I’m the Emperor of the Universe! Once I fully dominate this Universe, I’ll also conquer those so-called Gods!’

This time, Zero,who haven’t train seriously for even a day on his life, decided to train seriously for the first time as he was stimulated by Ian. Zero had reached Universe-level with his talent alone. No effort or hardwork involved. Just roaming in the Universe, lazying around and destroying planets. He haven’t train anything.

Even Energy Sensing? It just came naturally to him. His transformations on the other hand weren’t something he developed. They’re innate abilities which purpose was to seal his power rather than to strengen him.

Zero scratched his chin, a gleam appeared on his eyes as if inspired by something. ’That guy has a lot of transformations like me that could boost his battle-power. Just what kind of bloodline does he have?’

’What if I develop another transformation more powerful than my Silver form? But, how sould I develop it?’

Then, the image of Ian’s untraceable, almost non-existent aura appeared on his head. ’That’s it! I must acquir a god form and master the energy that made that bastard a God! I really am a genius! HAHAHA.’

Zero looked at the desolate place around him, his mood was dosed with cold water. In here, there was nothing but river and boats. On the boats, what could see silhouttes guided by black robed skeletons. ’So this is Shattered Plane that my family could access every ten years or so. Are those black robed figures the so-called Wraiths by my father?’

Once, his father told him that do not approach or interact with the Wraiths. They only brings the souls of those who died to the underworld. Zero, even though arrogant, knew not to touch such weird, taboo existences. ’But maybe they’re the key to master my God Transformation?’
