Chapter 5: Wrath of the Void — Assault on the Celestial Realm
The night sky burned with unnatural light.
The dungeon trembled beneath Ryuslath's golden aura, and beyond it, the heavens themselves quivered.
From the Celestial Realm, a legion of gods descended, their weapons and spells glowing with divine fury.
Swords of light sliced through the clouds. Storms of holy fire rained down like meteors.
They had come to destroy the Fourth True Dragon the void-born who had absorbed flame, storm, ice, and every mortal skill.
Ryuslath hovered at the dungeon's edge, wings spread wide, void energy radiating in golden and black streaks. Ignira and Frostalis circled beside him, their combined aura bending reality. The smaller dragons and dungeon beasts formed a living wall behind him his Dragon Legion, a massive army of loyal monsters and tamed dragons.
"Celestial Gods," Ryuslath said calmly, voice echoing across heaven and earth.
"You seek to destroy me. Then so be it. But know this: I have mastered everything. Every skill, every art, every technique all of existence bows to me now."
The First Strike
The Celestial Gods unleashed their assault.
A god of fire hurled suns, another tore the air with divine storms, while the archangel of swords struck with a thousand blades simultaneously.
Ryuslath's eyes glowed. His body split into infinite forms, each mimicking a divine skill while enhancing it with void mastery.

[Skill Fusion: Omni-Skill Core +Divine Arts Integration]
[Evolution Progress: 40%]
He absorbed the suns, converted the storm into lightning and void energy, and shattered the blades midair.
Every attack strengthened him, feeding his Omni-Skill Core.
"You call this divine power?" he murmured. "Amateurs. Watch true mastery."
In an instant, Ryuslath released a combined elemental storm fire, ice, lightning, and void energy spiraling into a single unstoppable vortex.
The Celestial Legion screamed as the vortex obliterated their formation, leaving only fragments of light in its wake.
Dragon Legion Ascends
Ryuslath roared. His voice resonated through the void, summoning his Dragon Legion.
Ignira spewed molten rivers of flame across the battlefield.
Frostalis froze the ground beneath the gods' feet, trapping even the swiftest warriors.
Zerath and the other tamed dragons struck with perfect coordination, tearing through divine defenses.
> [Dragon Legion Command Activated Full Autonomy]
[Skill Acquired: True Dragon Synergy Elemental & Void Amplification]
The battlefield became a storm of destruction.
No divine spell could pierce his aura. No celestial weapon could harm his slime form. Every god's attack was absorbed, mastered, and returned tenfold.
A New Revelation
As Ryuslath surveyed the battlefield, he felt something unusual a faint tremor, different from mortal or divine power.
It came from the edge of the Celestial Throne, where the Celestial Overseer, the supreme god of creation, had descended.
> "You… void-born," the Overseer said, voice like the death of stars.
"You dare challenge existence itself?"
Ryuslath's golden eyes narrowed.
> "Existence? I am existence now. Every skill, every technique, every law of reality flows through me. Step forward, and I will rewrite you out of existence."
The Celestial Overseer smiled coldly.
> "Then let this be your ultimate trial… Fourth True Dragon."
A sphere of pure creation energy formed in the Overseer's hand, threatening to erase reality itself.
"Finally… a challenge worthy of the Omni-Skill Core." Ryuslath's aura flared like a supernova. "Bring it. I've devoured death, monsters, dragons, and gods alike. Now, I'll devour the creator of this realm itself."
