SSS Awakening: Rebirth of the Strongest Vampire God Chapter 745 How is he so strong?

Within the fortress walls, assembled nobles stood before the defensive barrier, their countenances etched with terror as they gazed skyward through the resplendent crimson dome. The assault from above was an unprecedented spectacle, utterly beyond their prior comprehension.

A spear forged from blood energy sliced through the heavens like a celestial projectile, its surface emblazoned with ancient sigils that blazed with the intensity of miniature suns. The very atmosphere shrieked as the weapon carved its path, leaving in its wake a wake of distorted space.

Even from this vantage point, the sheer pressure emanating from the attack caused several nobles to falter.

"That… that is a B-rank annihilation technique…"

"Is she intent on annihilating the entire settlement?!"

"If that attack strikes the barrier—"

The elder could not articulate the full extent of his dread. Throughout the city, vampires observed with abject horror as the monstrous spear plummeted towards them. Even before impact, the barrier convulsed violently, displaying nascent fractures that began to spiderweb across the crimson shield.

Inside the opulent throne chamber, Samarishit’s complexion turned ashen. "We are finished…" Whispered another noble, his voice strained. "This domain cannot withstand such a force…"

A frantic scramble ensued as every noble present activated their teleportation tokens. The vast majority of the settlement's vampire populace resorted to the same desperate escape measure. Across the city, bursts of silver and crimson light flickered in succession as emergency teleportation glyphs were activated amidst the widespread panic.

However, an inexplicable phenomenon occurred. The teleportation arrays initiated, the inscribed runes ignited, and space began to warp—yet nothing transpired. The light sputtered and extinguished, leaving everyone paralyzed in bewilderment.

"What…?"

"My teleportation token!"

"Nothing is functioning!"

One individual attempted again, channeling a greater surge of Qi into the artifact. The array reactivated, and as the spatial transit portal started to form, the surrounding air convulsed violently, imploding the nascent passage. The token crumbled into dust.

A wave of panic inundated the settlement. No one could escape.

Outside the city, one of the elder vampires let out a cold huff. "Ordinarily, I would remain uninvolved, but today, a lesson must be imparted. All of you shall perish to atone for that wastrel's existence."

The sky over the city quivered ominously as the B-rank spear hurtled towards the barrier. The colossal weapon tore through the firmament like an instrument of divine retribution, its runes intensifying in brilliance with each passing moment. The sheer pressure warped the air, forcing countless vampires below to their knees.

"It is over…"

"We are all going to die…"

Samarishit gazed upward, his eyes vacant, as the colossal spear dominated the sky above. His fate was sealed. He had miscalculated, expending his ultimate move prematurely.

The barrier was already succumbing. Crimson fissures raced across the dome, resembling a spider's web, as the formation strained under the onslaught.

Hovering above the settlement, six B-rank vampires observed in silence. The ancient vampiress clasped her arms. "Let the youngling witness true power."

The spear finally made contact.

BOOOOOOM!

Reality itself seemed to detonate. A maelstrom of blood energy surged outwards as the immense spear impacted the domain barrier. Shockwaves cascaded through the sky, obliterating clouds and sending violent tremors across the entire region.

The barrier shuddered uncontrollably. From below, the cries of vampires intensified as the cracks on the dome proliferated exponentially.

"It is shattering!"

"The domain is collapsing!"

Numerous towers within the settlement crumbled under the immense pressure. Streets fractured, and walls splintered. The entire metropolis convulsed as if on the verge of annihilation. High above, the old vampiress offered a faint smirk.

Then, the smirk vanished.

For the barrier did not shatter. Instead, a far more dreadful event unfolded. The cracks abruptly ceased their expansion. The domain formation roared to life. A colossal vortex of blood essence erupted from the settlement's core, ascending skyward like a pillar piercing the heavens.

The descending spear faltered, then halted. It hung suspended, frozen in mid-air. The eyes of every B-rank vampire widened in disbelief.

"What?"

The spear vibrated erratically, as though gripped by an unseen force. Then, the entire weapon began to contort. The blood energy comprising the spear started to unravel, strand by strand, as if being voraciously consumed.

The vampiress's expression shifted dramatically. "No…" For the first time, stark disbelief marred her visage. "That is my attack!"

Another B-rank elder's pupils constricted. "Your attack is being consumed," he stated, his voice low.

The vampires within the settlement stared upwards, utterly stunned. Mere moments prior, they had resigned themselves to certain death. Now, the very attack destined to obliterate them was being dismantled and devoured by the domain itself.

Inside the throne chamber, Samarishit's knees buckled, almost collapsing. His lips quivered as he witnessed the unbelievable spectacle mirrored in the fractured panes of the windows.

The spear rapidly diminished in size. What had initially appeared as celestial retribution now resembled prey ensnared within an unseen gullet. The luminous runes adorning its surface flickered erratically before shattering, one by one. Every particle of concentrated blood energy was wrenched free and inexorably pulled downwards.

And at the epicenter of it all… a solitary figure stood, one hand outstretched.

"The prodigal heir!"

"How did he attain such formidable strength?"

The B-ranked individuals could only stare, dumbfounded. "No. He isn't truly that powerful. Observe. His entire frame is convulsing and trembling. He is on the verge of collapse. He absolutely cannot maintain this for much longer." Another elder then gave his head a slow shake, articulating gravely, "No. You misinterpret. He is not faltering. Look closer. He is undergoing an evolution!"

Every gaze froze, fixed upon the solitary individual within the protective barrier, unblinking. Right before their very eyes, something completely beyond comprehension was gradually, incrementally, unfolding.

The swirling vortex of blood essence ascending from the cityscape showed no sign of abating. If anything, its magnitude continued to swell.

Innumerable scarlet tendrils snaked towards the lone figure standing directly beneath it, funneling into his form like rivers converging into the vast ocean. The surrounding atmosphere distorted violently as the oppressive force intensified, contorting the very fabric of space within the confines of the domain itself.

Damon's entire being shuddered.

Blood-red veins, resembling incandescent runes, spread across his skin as the ancestor's blood coursing through his veins erupted with mounting ferocity. The tempest of spiritual energy encircling him began to compact, coalescing into rings of blood essence that slowly orbited his body as if they were celestial moons.
