Path of Absolute Transcendence

Before the vine could attack Kai, it severed into pieces by a sharp sword aura.

That wasn't the end of it, a huge fireball blasted towards Deathbloom. It wasn't prepared for a surprise attack, so the fireball directly exploded before it.

The Deathbloom flew away by the impact. Kai's body lying on the trunk of a tree disappeared. He suddenly appeared out of thin air.

'It seems my guess was correct, I should be more careful around here.'

Kai found something wrong the moment he felt the desire to sleep. Although he wanted to relax by climbing the mountain he never thought about sleeping in the wilderness.

So Kai became alert as soon these thoughts came to his mind, he knew it must be a kind of trap, so he voluntarily became a bait to lure the predator.

The plan was successful without any problem and now it's time to eliminate it.

Before Kai could attack the Tier 3 Deathbloom, the small Deathbloom's attacked him.

Kai didn't take them seriously, he formed a Will Shield and easily blocked their attack. He sprinted towards their leader while forming a sword in his hands.

The leader hadn't recovered from the impact, the fire element was its natural weakness like every plant type and it wasn't an exception.

Kai slashed his sword at its root and backed down, he didn't want to finish this battle early.

'It's a perfect opportunity to test the limits of my bloodline power and manipulation ability.'

The Deathbloom's weren't a threat to Kai, so he decided to experiment with them.

Kai never used his dark bloodline power ever single acquire it. A situation like that hadn't appeared for him, even during his fight with Sebastian, Kai never used the full extent of his strength.

Sebastian's strength was sealed, so Kai won the battle without much trouble. He also didn't use his gravity element and electromagnetic force often, so Kai decided to only use these to fight against the Deathblooms.

'First I should activate my bloodline power.'

As soon as Kai activated his bloodline power, the surrounding dark elements began to riot.

The Eden-like garden began to fall under darkness, the normal plants and flowers withered away weirdly with the appearance of sudden darkness. This darkness element didn't look like normal, instead, it looked like the true form of darkness.

Most people would often confuse or associate darkness with the absence of light. Although this statement can be considered true, but it wasn't fact, it was only a part of true darkness.

Darkness wasn't just the absence of light. The entire universe is made of dark matter, which is another form of darkness and the light wasn't even present at the beginning of the universe.

The only elements that were present at the beginning of the universe were darkness, chaos, space-time and fate. The other elements and life were formed after the combination of these elements.

So these four elements were Supreme elements among the countless ones that exist. But these aren't the only four to be claimed to be Supreme, as some acquired the title even though they haven't existed from the start.

The other Supreme elements are Destiny, Karma, Samsara, Power, Speed, Creation, Destruction and Devouring.

They became supreme because of their importance that required for the maintenance of balance.

Every single supreme element holds immense power, so it wasn't easy to acquire affinity towards them or comprehend them.

Only a selected few can achieve that and even if someone wanted to comprehend an element or law that he doesn't have affinity with, he wouldn't be able to do that even if he worked hard for his entire life.

Now that supreme darkness or true form of darkness gathered behind Kai. They seemed to worship him like their ruler and obediently went behind him.

Yes, a supreme element is worshipping Kai, this in itself was a miracle that should be passed on to the annals of history.

The true worshipper wasn't Kai, instead, it was the fragment that was hidden deep inside his soul.

The dark element is worshipping the void fragment, every single element behaved like a child before the fragment, expressing their desire to see it by behaving weirdly.

'What happened with these elements suddenly rioting like this? Is something wrong with my bloodline power?' Kai began to inspect himself after seeing the abnormal behavior of the surrounding elements.

The void fragment seemed to have sensed the owner's concern, so it released a tiny bit of aura.

The dark elements calmed down quickly in a matter of seconds as soon as they sensed the aura. They seemed like students who got caught by the teacher for doing something wrong.

Soon, they gathered behind Kai and merged with him.

Two dark, but majestic wings sprouted behind Kai after the dark element merged with him.

The pure darkness without any colors gave him a devilish charm. A pitch-black crown also appeared above his head.

His half-torn hanfu also disappeared, it changed into something similar to a full-body suit.

With this transformation, Kai looks like a fallen or dark Angel from the legends. The title suits him perfectly because of his handsome appearance.

'Wow, I never thought that my bloodline power would be this cool!' Kai wondered in amazement.

He examined his transformation without considering the Deathbloom.

'The power of this form was also good.' Kai nodded in satisfaction.

The first benefit Kai received in this form was an overall buff, it increased his strength, speed, recovery speed etc.

The second benefit was the wings behind him. Using it, Kai can teleport between shadows and distance depends on his strength.

The third and most important benefit was that his control over the darkness element would increase to an insane level.

The last and final benefit, Kai would stay rational and calm in this state. It was a very useful function as it gave resistance towards hypnotism, corruption, seduction etc.

'It should call this Dark Angel form from now on.' He smiled satisfied with this name.

"Now, it's time for you guys to die," Kai muttered with a smile on his face.

But the Deathbloom including the leader didn't appreciate his smile. They became terrified and tried escaping after that.

"Sorry guys, I would have let you leave if you hadn't come for me, but that's not possible anymore."

With his control over the darkness element, Kai formed a miniature domain using it.

The dark element in the surroundings obeyed his orders and formed something similar to a dome, although it didn't look intimidating like the ones he had seen before, it was decent enough to call it a domain.

Kai got the idea to create his domain from Sebastian. Sebastian used his bloodline ability to form a candlelight domain, although it didn't affect him Kai liked that idea very much.

He tried imitating the same thing as Sebastian, and because of his control, he succeeded in a single try.

The darkness element in the domain began to absorb the life energy of all the Deathblooms without any mercy. The devoured life energy reduced the consumption of Kai's energy.

The leader Deathbloom decided to fight against Kai after all the escape paths were blocked.

"Why aren't you talking right now?" Kai questioned curiously.

He had already seen and heard the voice of Deathbloom, but it hadn't even tried to talk ever since he arrived.

Soon, Kai noticed the reason for its weird behavior.

"Ha Ha Ha Ha! So my fireball blasted open your mouth, Ha Ha, sorry, I didn't notice that, I won't ask you to talk anymore." Kai joked with the leader, he had already seen the injury in his mouth, and he spoke those words deliberately to prove the Deathbloom.

Kai needs a fight and he won't achieve a satisfactory one with a hopeless opponent, so he provokes it to fight seriously.

As Kai expected the Deathbloom became angry and attacked him. Not only the leader, but its minions also attacked him.

'Now, I can fight to my heart's content.'

Kai raised his right hand and waved towards them. The darkness element went in the direction of his hand, his attack formed something similar to a black sea tide.

The black tide clashed with the attack of Deathbloom, there was no comparison between them, the tide won and went towards them without losing any moment.

The whole Deathbloom downed in the darkness. After a few moments, the darkness receded and none of the Deathblooms were left alive, every single one of them disappeared without any trace.

"It seems I need to control my power, I didn't expect that I would get much stronger in a short period," Kai muttered in amazement.

"I can find other opponents on the way." Kai decided to climb the mountain happily after seeing the results.

ABYSSAL DRAGON POV

Inside a huge cave, a huge black dragon with an obsidian scale slept peacefully. It has such huge wings that could even cover the skies alone and a dark ominous flame at the end of its tail. It was the Abyssal Dragon that bypassed Kai, when he was near it's lair.

The dragon suddenly opened its eyes and looked in Kai's direction.
