[Adaptability has increased in progress]

[Level 3 Adaptability (3%]

Focusing all of my attention on the absorption of Chaotic Energy, I discovered that it\'s becoming easier for my body to digest. It\'s like the rate of my absorption was gradually rising because of the smoothening of the energy channels where the Chaotic Energy passes through. Not only that it continued to be directly proportionate with the continued progress of my Adaptability as well as the tempering of my Transcendent Body.

If this continued, not only would I have a lot of Chaotic Energy reserves, but the small Chaosworld connected to me would also feel the progress. Its creation of new Space Oddities would quicken and the possibility for it to start giving back or supplying me with Chaotic Energy like the Source Energy Worlds would rise.

[Strength and Endurance +6]

[Intelligence +1]

Several minutes later, the shower of big droplets of Chaotic Energy stopped. Chasing after those I missed was actually impossible as they would reenter the stable Chaotic Space, like raindrops reaching the ground where they either dried up or got absorbed back into the earth.

To get them again, I needed to be like the Space Beast who could break the stability open and plunder this Chaotic Space.

Divinities who started progressing with their Divine Pathway would possibly be able to do that. Still, compared to Space Beasts which could be considered Chaotic Energy beings, it would be hard to replicate what it did.

And considering it wasn\'t even a Sage Level yet, imagine what those who firmly stepped on that level could do…

In our past life, we haven\'t truly encountered a lot of them and more often than not, they\'d be floating peacefully without a care in the world. It\'s rare to see them moving like this.

That\'s why another question popped up in my head. What was it trying to do?

"F-finally. It\'s over."

As I was lost in that thought, an exhausted voice reached my ears. Remaining in the same spot where I last saw him, the six-eyed Transcendent weakly floated while trembling like a weak, malnourished kitten.

His earlier ferocity disappeared and all he could do to stay awake was to grasp what little Source Energy he had left.

Judging from how his armor and body became blotted by dark spots, he could\'ve died from that shower of Chaotic Energy if it didn\'t stop.

At this point, the only thing visible on the Space Beast was its long tile that reminded me of a lizard. It was smooth, fat, and wriggled like it was paddling the Space Beast back to deep space.

The splashes of Chaotic Energy became contained to its vicinity. And I know that with my current strength, approaching it carelessly could result in it becoming aware of my presence and considering me as hostile to it.

That\'s not worth risking my life for after getting blessed by it.

As my eyes refocused on my pursuer who was in no shape to do that anymore, I referred to Tem\'s system notifications to quickly check the progress I made.

[Level 3 Adaptability (3%)]

[Stored Chaotic Energy: 1133]

[Strength and Endurance +39]

[Intelligence +13]

[Energy Reconnection: 2nd Realm (84%)]

Somehow, the absorption plateaued at 50 after a certain point. Still, seeing these numbers, I got quite a lot considering how short the duration was… Really, no wonder Chaotic Energy was still preferred by experts to absorb despite the pain it could bring them as well as its corruption properties. Because at the end day, even if the Chaotic Energy they absorbed came from the Density-1 World Zone, it\'s akin to or quite close to Level 4 Source Energy because of its purity.

And compared to me, those who had yet to adapt to Chaotic Energy couldn\'t absorb it 100%. And with their continuous absorption without expelling its accumulated properties inside their body, the efficiency would also lower.

"H-how. How are you fine with that?! What are you?! No. What did you do?!"

Holding his whip with his weakened hand, the six-eyed Transcendent caught me in his eyes, and even with just his vision, he surmised that I fared better than him even though we were put in the same situation.

With his Source Energy waning from his body, he\'s really on his last legs. Contrary to him, I was like a tank full of water thanks to that Space Beast.

"It\'s a secret and it seems like the situation has changed. I\'m sorry but catching me is now out of the question. You chased after me and sent your men to my people… I guess it\'s only enough that I do the same."

As I said that, I circulated my Source Energy and used a Movement Skill to arrive before him.

"But first, I have to deal with you before you can recover. I\'m still weaker than you if you\'re at 100% but right now… You\'re close to an empty tank."

That\'s right. The tables have turned. This was my opportune moment to turn the situation around.

Although a lot different from what I originally planned, the circumstances when I formulated that included the fact that it would be difficult for me to defeat a full-fledged Rank 4 Transcendent.

But a Rank 4 Transcendent that was on his last legs?

Yeah. He\'s a prey I could hunt for myself.

"W-wait!"

His six eyes still managed to catch me in his vision however, with his body not moving the way he wanted it to, his reaction was slower.

My left fist strengthened by Source Energy hit his face, turning his blue skin into red.

A crisp sound of hitting something hard and breaking it rang out as I could sense his bone structure cracking from that empowered punch.

But that\'s just the star.

Compared to the brilliant glow of my left fist, my right became covered up by the sinister nature of Chaotic Energy.

[Chaos Veil has been applied to your right fist]

BAAM! HISSSS!

As soon as my fist connected to the left side of his face, another sizzling sound of something burning echoed as he got thrown backward.

I chased after him and rained down more punches and kicks on his beaten body. With my feet also wrapped with either Source Energy or Chaotic Energy, it became a contest in which one would emerge victorious.

Naturally, in terms of purity, my Flux Energy was still incomplete and wouldn\'t be able to win against the Source Energy counterpart.

The six-eyed Transcendent\'s cries of pain and cracking of bones became the prominent noise in this part of this space. As there was no sign of the Space Beast returning from where it dived down, I took my time to thoroughly subdue him.

Capturing him passed by my head but compared to the veiled woman and the other Transcendents we caught, the risk with him would be higher.

I mean, if it was easy to convert someone by removing their memories or identity and crippling their Pathway, the old fossils would\'ve done it already to bolster the forces of Earth.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of things that we have to consider before attempting that. In fact, even the plan to give the veiled woman a new identity still hinged largely on the willingness of the other party.

If the woman resists the process, it\'s likely to fail. That\'s why the Eye of Nihility would be the clutch on how to ascertain the success rate by taking over her.

Anyway, let\'s not think about that yet and deal with the situation at hand.

The six-eyed Transcendent continued to defend himself or try to counterattack by pulling some treasures in his Storage Equipment. But having prepared for that, I would slap it away from his hands before he could activate any.

And as his resistance gradually breaks, my five Domains put him in his place.

"Blame the Space Beast appearing at that critical moment. Not me."

That\'s my last words to the six-eyed Transcendent before executing him.

"No… I can\'t die here! I\'m Serpent Knight! I\'m set to become a Hydra!"

In his last-ditch effort for a desperate attempt, he tried pooling his Source Energy to blow us up.

But even that was snuffed out by the Chaos Veil\'s corruption properties.

"H-how… How are you wielding that energy? That should be impossible…"

With that question as his last words to utter, his three pairs of eyes closed and he breathed his last.
