After Yogg-Saron's heart was successfully compressed tenfold, Aiden truly witnessed the real power of the Eye of Sargeras. Its combination with the Scepter of Sargeras was simply invincible!
Even shrunk tenfold, Yogg-Saron's heart was still a behemoth due to its massive "base number." Standing before it was like standing before a towering mountain.
It was shaped like a chicken heart, and Aiden also sensed massive blood vessels similar to the aorta.
"Now that the heart is so much smaller, I wonder what this Old God's blood pressure is like?" he thought maliciously.
With the Scepter and Eye of Sargeras in hand, Aiden finally didn't need to worry about Yogg-Saron. He believed that as long as the heroes outside stalled for enough time, he would definitely have a chance to truly kill Yogg-Saron!
"I really have to thank you, Yogg-Saron. Thank you for your schemes and tricks, otherwise I really wouldn't have a way to deal with you!"
Aiden deliberately conveyed his thoughts loudly.
To modify a model with the Eye of Sargeras, it first had to be entered into the system. This "entry" required the target to be within the user's perception.
Aiden couldn't create a model of Yogg-Saron based on imagination alone, just like he could only build a model of the heart now that he was in front of it. Because he didn't know the complete shape of Yogg-Saron's main body, directly using the Eye of Sargeras to destroy Yogg-Saron was unrealistic.
If he stayed outside, he could only use it to destroy the small part of Yogg-Saron's body that was exposed during the third phase. For the real Yogg-Saron, the head fighting the other heroes in the lair was only about one-thousandth of its body.
Yogg-Saron swallowing him into its stomach, on the other hand, allowed him to access the weakest part of this Old God, which could only be blamed on its own "seeking death."
Faced with Aiden's provocation, Yogg-Saron didn't dare to answer.
Its heart was compressed tenfold, and its blood-pumping function was severely insufficient. Even if it now controlled its heartbeat to constantly accelerate blood pumping, it could only meet the blood supply needs of at most one-third of its body.
In other words, even if Aiden stopped now and did nothing, Yogg-Saron would have to shrink two-thirds of its body to allow the remaining part to continue to survive.
The only thing to be thankful for was that this method wasn't too difficult for the Old Gods. Because of their special bodies, it could be done easily.
The price was sacrificing two-thirds of its power.
But this wasn't the end, Aiden didn't plan to stop now.
Having the opportunity to completely kill an Old God, how could he possibly leave the other party with a chance to rise again?
Yogg-Saron had a strong premonition that it might really die this time, and might even die completely like C'Thun.
For tens of thousands of years, it had been careful, unhurried, and slowly corrupted the jailers of this prison. As long as it advanced steadily, it would be able to completely escape in a few hundred years at most.
It had waited tens of thousands of years, so what were a few hundred years?
But it still couldn't suppress the temptation to escape the cage. When N'Zoth took the initiative to abandon his prejudices two years ago and proposed that the three Old Gods abandon their hatred and unite to cooperate in re-ruling the world, it agreed.
This was the first mistake.
Then, C'Thun died. Yogg-Saron considered that these mortals would soon regard it as the next target, and its tens of thousands of years of effort might be ruined. It was about to be sealed again, so it panicked. Helpless, it chose to completely rely on N'Zoth.
This was the second mistake.
Finally, it actually listened to N'Zoth's plan and swallowed Aiden, a guy who controlled the Titan artifact, into its stomach.
This was the third mistake, and the most unforgivable one.
The first two mistakes would only lead to it being sealed again, but the third mistake might make it follow in C'Thun's footsteps.
Because it now had almost no way to deal with Aiden. Even if the N'Zoth it relied on was powerful, it couldn't project its power here to interfere with Aiden's actions.
Faced with Aiden's provocation, it couldn't even launch a powerful counterattack.
In the hundreds of thousands of years that Yogg-Saron had memories, this was the first time it had faced such a helpless situation.
Even when fighting the Titans, at least there was back and forth, a hammer from you, a whip from me, all in the open.
But now Aiden was inside its body, next to its heart. Even if it had earth-shattering power, it could hardly pour it onto the other party.
To attack Aiden, Yogg-Saron first had to pierce its own body.
But in order to survive, to live to see the arrival of the End Time, it had already made such a decision—to drive away the enemy by self-harm!
Aiden had already tested the method of using the Eye of Sargeras, and now he was completely confident that he had the ability to kill Yogg-Saron.
"Specify model—Yogg-Saron's Heart."
"Modification method—Pulverize!"
He activated the system program inside the gem again, preparing to start a new round of "Photoshopping"—uh, modification.
However, Yogg-Saron could no longer endure it, and it roared: "You are delusional!"
Dozens of huge tentacles suddenly pierced through Yogg-Saron's chest cavity, stabbing towards Aiden here.
Those were its own tentacles. It used its tentacles to pierce its own chest, just to kill this mortal who brought it endless pain and failure.
No, not a mortal.
How could a mortal use the Titan artifact so skillfully?
Yogg-Saron was now absolutely convinced that Aiden must be a Titan wearing a mortal's skin—from a certain point of view, its judgment was indeed correct.
Because even Aman'Thul believed that Aiden was a Titan.
Before swallowing Aiden, Yogg-Saron never imagined that this guy who seriously threatened its life would force it to such a point. Even when catering to the plan designed by N'Zoth, it felt that this plan was so perfect and precise, almost foolproof.
But these were all illusions.
It was now about to pay the most painful price for these illusions.
Because Yogg-Saron's heart had shrunk tenfold, a huge space was immediately vacated in its chest cavity. Although ninety percent of the space was squeezed over by other organs and soft tissues, leaving less than half, for Aiden, the empty space was enough to fit the entire Dalaran.
Delaying would only lead to more problems, so he decided to destroy Yogg-Saron's heart and end this battle as soon as possible.
Just as he was pouring energy into the Eye of Sargeras, Yogg-Saron finally truly made its move.
It roared and fiercely plunged hundreds of its own tentacles into its chest.
It endured the pain of having its heart gouged out, retaliating in a self-harming way.
"You will never win, Aiden-Aiden!" Yogg-Saron shouted through gritted teeth, word by word.
Hundreds of tentacles drilled into its chest, and the cilia-covered ends of the tentacles twisted and lunged towards Aiden!
These were true tentacles belonging to Yogg-Saron's body, equivalent to a person's hands and feet. They were incredibly flexible and powerful. Yogg-Saron had once used these tentacles to contend with the Titans. However, it never imagined that one day it would tear open its own chest to try and kill an enemy.
In terms of its size, Aiden was no more than a tiny germ. However, this germ, once attached to its heart, was actually unleashing unimaginable destructive power. If it didn't resolve to tear open its chest to excise this germ, it wouldn't be long before it was completely defeated by the attack of this tiny germ.
It had to be said that Yogg-Saron's decisiveness startled Aiden. He was pouring energy into the Eye of Sargeras, preparing to completely destroy the opponent's heart, thereby severely injuring or even killing Yogg-Saron. He never expected that at this moment, the most unlikely attack would suddenly come from behind.
When hundreds of giant tentacles carrying Yogg-Saron's own chest flesh suddenly flew towards him, Aiden, who captured all of this, instantly felt his hair stand on end.
He used the fastest speed of his life to unfold Divine Protection, enveloping himself in an invincible holy light shield, and then summoned the Staff of Time, immediately preparing to stop time.
Just as he was enveloped by the golden shield, several tentacles struck him almost simultaneously.
These tentacles were not the soft, easily severed things from outside. They truly came from Yogg-Saron's main body, were incredibly flexible to control, and possessed incredibly powerful attack power.
The ends of these tentacles were all covered with ring-shaped, fang-filled maws, just like the mouths on its heads outside.
Aiden's vision went black for a moment, and one of the thickest tentacles opened the maw at its end, swallowing him whole.
At this moment, he finally succeeded in stopping time!
Divine Protection had already disappeared. Half a second later, and he would have really been swallowed by this tentacle.
"Damn it, what a lunatic!" He struggled to run out of the solidified gray space, looking back at the hundreds of tentacles that had pierced through Yogg-Saron's chest cavity, feeling that this evil god was truly insane!
When time returned to normal, Aiden had already successfully circled to the side. He held aloft the burning Holy Sword, and with one strike, cleaved open a main artery at the top of Yogg-Saron's heart.
This artery was thicker than the main trunk of Nordrassil on Mount Hyjal. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't be able to cut it off with even hundreds of attacks. But now, the Scepter of Sargeras had completely broken through the main artery's defense, and it had become as fragile as paper. With one slash from Aiden, the holy fire that stretched for dozens of meters directly severed it completely. Immediately, black blood gushed out from the severed point like a huge waterfall.
Yogg-Saron roared in pain, launching another attack with all its might, but this time Aiden was prepared. He slowed down the flow of time tenfold, making all of Yogg-Saron's attacks sluggish. With his size, dodging these tentacle attacks was simply too easy!
The "heart" was not just an organ for pumping blood for Yogg-Saron, but also a place where it generated and stored its essence power.
When Aiden compressed its heart tenfold just now, it only affected the function of pumping blood.
If it could preserve its heart, it would only suffer a short-term loss of two-thirds of its body and power.
But if the entire heart was destroyed, Yogg-Saron would face a life-or-death test!
And now, this heart was being destroyed.
Yogg-Saron frantically waved those hundreds of tentacles, trying to kill Aiden—of course, it knew this was impossible, so it only wanted to drive him away in its heart, preferably to never let this guy come back. To this end, it was even willing to let the mortals seal it up willingly.
If it could save its life, there would always be a chance to make a comeback in the future.
But now it realized that even driving Aiden away was a luxury.
Because the current Aiden was no longer satisfied with merely sealing Yogg-Saron, but wanted to eliminate it like it had eliminated C'Thun.
When its first surprise attack failed to achieve its goal, it would never have another chance.
Aiden dodged while pouring energy into the Eye of Sargeras. Soon after, Yogg-Saron felt the power that invisibly bound its heart appear again. However, this time it was no longer a "net", nor was it just being compressed by external force, but like countless blades were constantly cutting inside and outside the heart.
It was immediately terrified. That power, which clearly existed but could not be detected, left it completely helpless. It had a body of power, but it couldn't resist this means that transcended cognition and rules.
The first crack soon appeared on Yogg-Saron's heart, followed by countless more. The surface of that black-purple heart was as if an extremely dense and sharp wire mesh had been forcibly tightened, cutting the surface of this heart full of filth into almost equal-sized pieces.
"No, no, no!"
Yogg-Saron roared in despair, conveying its extremely panicked thoughts to its last ally, "N'Zoth, this is a Titan! He is a Titan!"
There was a moment of silence on the other side, then a response: "Now I know."
During the Nightmare War, N'Zoth couldn't confirm it yet, but now it finally confirmed Aiden's identity from Yogg-Saron's experience.
This news was very important for its future strategic deployment. It had to realize that the enemy it was going to face was not only the mortals and various guardians of Azeroth, but also a Titan who had appeared on this land in advance, a Titan outside the rules.
"Save me, save me quickly!" Yogg-Saron shouted.
But there was no more response from the other side.
It quickly understood that N'Zoth had completely abandoned it. Because even the most powerful Old God could not fight against this humanoid Titan from tens of thousands of miles away.
How could N'Zoth, who was always accustomed to hiding and liked to stay behind the scenes, be willing to risk exposing itself for a former enemy?
It had its own plans, and as long as everything went according to plan, it would still be the ultimate victor.
In the depths of the Endless Sea, in the depths of Ny'alotha, a city full of nightmares and terror, Azeroth's most powerful Old God, N'Zoth, opened one eye.
"I will avenge you, and C'Thun," N'Zoth slowly muttered to itself, "For the victory of the Old Gods, someone must make a sacrifice."
