Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse

om the skies, a huge green-gold structure of a prominently large totem holding inscriptions of laughing and baleful skeletons struck into the ground, destroying those nearby as it stably took root.

SHAA! SHAA! SHAA!

An eerie sound that was similar to that of rapid waves of the ocean rang out and all around the Totem, waves of cloudy milky green lights erupted out as far as 10 meters, fully covering all the Infernals nearby as a horrendous sight occurred.

Any infernals covered by this poisonous cloud released from the Poison Totem found their bodies melting right away, with those who were powerful enough to withstand it with their lives barely hanging on despairing when yet another wave of poisonous cloud released from the Poison Totem,

SHAA! SHAA! SHAA!

The waves of poisonous clouds continued to be released from the totem as in its surrounding 10 meters, everything had melted down to a mess of bloodied goo as it continued to release its waves of poison nonetheless.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Poison Totems similar to this were summoned by the Lich Lord of Abomination as they struck down in multiple areas where clouds of infernals were present, causing a terrifying sight to replay as everything melted from clouds of poisons.

OOOOH!

The more powerful Infernals watching from the back roared in anger as they moved in, maneuvering around the Poison Totems still continuously releasing poisonous waves as they made a beeline for the large hooded green-gold skeleton and Noah. Multiple Transcendent Rank Infernals, as well as two Saint Ranked Infernals, had appeared in the surroundings.

The Lich ’s eyes shone a green light as the skeleton atop its staff shone a golden light, its immense energies casting yet another skill as Noah watched the abilities play out with a wide smile on his face.

[Summon Undead] was cast as shining green lights began to appear in droves all around them. The green lights seemed to be multiplying at a rapid pace, increasing exponentially as an aura of death began to spread out all around them.

OOOH!

Encompassing screams resounded as in the vicinity of Noah and the Lich Lord of Abomination, thousands of powerful Undead had appeared. Numerous Skeleton Warriors wielding poisonous jagged blades, Dullahans releasing poisonous smoke, immensely large Ghouls and Zombies, as well as…a humongous sized Bone Dragon that whipped its skeletal head towards the oncoming Infernals…and let out a poisonous Dragon ’s Breath.

VOOM

A gory scene of melted Transcendent Rank Infernals played out as a fiery light erupted from the Saint Ranked Infernals, a barrier of flames surrounding them that fully protected them from the poisonous breath.

They pulled back briefly as they pulled in their bloodlust and observed the beings in front of them yet again. 

Around the human and Lich, droves of powerful Undead were screeching at the Infernals as the Bone Dragon began the charge, and thousands of the undead spreading out towards the Infernals swarming around them.

RUMBLE!

”Haha! ”

Noah could not help but laugh at this sight, recalling how he loved summons so much with the ease they brought. Watching a pet that he called out move across the battle field as they reaped havoc and chaos had always had its own charm, and he was reminded of it yet again right now. He was about to move forward and put in some work himself when he felt a reddish form of energy come from the dead Infernals all around him and enter his body.

”Hmm? ”

…

[Error.]

[Oh?]

[Now what is this?]

He stopped as he heard the messages from the Planetary Core of his homeworld, with the core of the Beast World and Demon World chiming in soon after as they came across something new!

Memories about the Infernals reappeared in his mind as he recalled the words of Elder Baldwin and Elder Spacewarp about how these beings were diametrically opposed to them, with their bodies releasing unique energy which directly helped improve the cultivation and comprehension speed of those that defeated them. The same applied to the Infernals, where anytime they defeated any of them, their ranks and power would climb that much faster!

So why exactly had this unique form of essence caught the attention of the Planetary Systems?
