A world with a diameter of several hundreds of thousands of kilometers was traveling through a dimension filled with space storms. Those storms had enough power to crush a Rank 5 life form in an instant, but they could not trespass the Crystal Wall.
The world was the Beta Heavenly World, and it was displaying Greater Void Teleportation. This was an ability only those who had reached Grand Completion and fully understood the Law of Space could perform, something that allowed you to travel galaxies without the need for external help like World Gates.
Normally, a small individual traveling using this ability was challenging, but an entire world doing it was mind-blowing. Despite that, the Beta Heavenly World reached a speed faster than Rank 7 life forms. This was one of the many examples of the immense power in the World Rune.
After almost seven months of traveling millions of times faster than the speed of light, the surroundings that had always been space storms changed. In front of the Beta Heavenly World appeared a white net.
This size of this white net was so immense that the entire Beta Heavenly World could not compare to a millesimal part of it. Each thread was thinner than a hair but had more than enough power to split a world apart.
It is said that space fragments were one the sharpest thing in existence, and space storms were an agglomeration of that. However, this net cut through space storms as if they were nothing and swallowed the broken pieces to increase its power. Not even a Being of Laws who had created his own Omega Law would dare to test the durability of his body against those white threads.
Just when the Beta Heavenly World was about to crash into the net and be disintegrated at an atomic level, the threads rearranged themselves and formed a portal allowing the world to pass.
Less than a nanosecond after the world passed, the net returned to its original form and became once again impenetrable.
Inside the sun cocoon in the Garden of Creation, the last drop of the energy that contained the entirety of the Archangel's existence entered Zatiel Natux Terminus Daybreak's body.
In the Bloodline Heart of the Ancestor of the Neo-Demon race, there was a golden sun that represented life and creation and a dark star that was the embodiment of death and destruction.
The dark star's size and power were not inferior to the golden sun, and it was covered with white runes that carried a strange force.
Zatiel had fully absorbed the artificial bloodline, but things were not over yet. The Chaotic-Core continued to spin faster and faster as it worked to fuse both bloodlines into a single entity, something much greater than the mere sum of their individual powers.
Slowly the dark star came closer to the golden sun until finally covering it. The instant that happened, a new force purer and greater than the one each of the heavenly bodies originally possessed was born.
An eclipse appeared inside the Neo-Demon's Bloodline Heart. The white runes that were originally in the dark star began to change and grew into a much more complex form of themselves while a dark purple light filled them.
The new purple runes did not remain inert, and they took the appearance of all kinds of life forms. You could see humans, dragons, leviathans, elves, titans, and even stars, moons, and worlds. Everything that had ever lived and died could be seen in them.
From the eclipse, a dark purple flame was born that inundated Zatiel's body. This flame not only strengthened the Neo-Demon constitution but also tempered every organ and piece of flesh in him.
Zatiel felt a power birthed from life and death, and that surpassed creation and destruction inside him. The Sun Force that was stronger than Abyss Aura could not compare with this purple flame.
The Neo-Demon's body had experienced changes after absorbing the Archangel. He now had eight amazing wings on his back. The four wings in the left were made of dark crystal feathers, while the four in the right were made of golden crystal feathers. Both sets represented opposite powers, but each feather was filled with purple lights that resembled hundreds of shooting stars.
Slowly Zatiel's eyes were opened one by one. The first was the Eye of Life and Creation on his forehead. The power in it had grown greatly, and you could see arcs of golden light coming out from it, each of them filled with a rejuvenating power.
The moment the left eye was open, a power that was the antithesis of Zatiel's vertical eye was released. The eye was completely black with a single white dot in the center, and an aura full of death and destruction was around it.
A dark aura and golden arcs filled the sun cocoon the moment Zatiel's opened his vertical and left eye. They were constantly crashing and releasing thunderous explosions, each of them wanting to prove superiority over the other.
Zatiel did not care about the fantastic phenomenon around him. He gradually opened his right eye, and the moment the eyelids separated, a purple force appeared in the sun cocoon.
The right eye wasn't entirely open, and yet the purple power that it released was so powerful that it forced the dark aura and golden arcs back to their origin. Its strength appeared to be indisputable as it overpowered life, death, and even creation and destruction.
Finally, the eye was entirely open, and an incredibly powerful law permeated the entire Garden of Creation. The plants and trees reacted to this power. Their stems and branches moved with the winds, and they appeared to be bowing to a higher entity.
Zatiel's right eye was a mass of raging purple energy that twisted until it gathered in the center, forming a shining sphere. Instead of an eye, this appeared to be the entrance to a plane where life and death were just a single entity, and they had become a power that nothing could stop and affected everything that had ever lived.
The next moment, the purple eye twitched, and Zatiel's body trembled. He was forced to close his right eye due to the immense pressure his body and soul were withstanding.
The Eye of Life and Creation disappeared, and his left eye returned to normal. However, the right eye remained active, filled with purple energy. The Neo-Demon was not able to fully control the power in the right eye.
This problem did not frustrate Zatiel. Happiness filled his heart, and a great smile appeared on his face since this meant the power his right eye was currently displaying was at a Rank above his own. If he was able to launch an attack with it, it could endanger the life of a Soul Forging existence.
"Awesome!. As expected from the power containing the Law of Life and Law of Creation from my first bloodline and the Law of Death, Law of Destruction, and Soul Law of the artificial bloodline."
The strength of the Incarnation of Death and Destruction was birthed from the fusion of death, destruction, and soul, but the might Zatiel felt in his right eyes was greater. Of course, it could not compare with the power the Incarnation of Death and Destruction was able to display at the end of his life, but the potential and room for improvement were higher.
"A. I. Chip, show me my current power." Immediately after giving the order, Zatiel felt a scanning force permeating his body and consciousness before hearing the robotic voice of the chip.
"Bip... Analyzing the host.
Name: Zatiel Daybreak
Race: Neo-Demon (Rank 3/ ??? Bloodline)/ Animus (Rank 3)
Strength: 379.2
Physique: 779.5
Speed: 589.1
Abyss Aura: 514.8
??? Force: 753.2
Mind Force: 298.6
Consciousness Solidification: 100%
Elemental Chaos Body: 100%
The host has reached the absolute peak of Rank 3 in the Neo-Demon path and has at least reached the Potential level on some of his laws. The Chaotic-Core is currently stopping the host from undergoing the baptism of the Universe Will and awakening his True Soul.
The host must travel to the Neo-Demon Realm and undergo the Three Severings and form the Nine Apocalypse Star Heavens to become a Rank 4 Neo-Demon and gain the title, Doom Bringer."
Zatiel's stats were truly incredible, and no Rank 3 life form should be able to reach that type of power before having awakening his True Soul. If he was able to control his right eye, he could face a newly advanced Rank 4 life form.
The thing that was out of his expectation was the great development of his speed.
'My speed had always been around the same as my strength. Such great progress should be due to fragments of the Shooting Star bloodline that remained inside the Archangel. Although I would not be able to connect with the laws of the bloodline, it will enhance my constitution.' Zatiel did not waste too much time thinking about his strength and proceeded to leave the sun cocoon.
'We should have already passed the Absolute Shattering Shield and enter the Neo-Demon Realm. It is time to advance to Rank 4.'
