Abyssal Lord of the Magi World
chapter-264

Less than a second after the Mirage Rune was activated, Sophia appeared above the 11th magic tower. The Neo-Demon's body was covered in multicolored flames that drew everyone's attention.

Eliezer's True Soul felt immense pressure being cast on him. His already diminished power was reduced even more. Before he could even assimilate what had just happened, chains of light and shadows materialized around the Neo-Demon.

The chains formed a cocoon around Sophia's body. This would stop any attempt of external interference.

"RESTRAIN" After that word was pronounced, a red aura strengthened the chain. Eliezer knew that escape was not an option.

Sophia's eyes were cold and pushed the power of the Chaotic-Core to the maximum. The Abyssfire Demon Phoenix bloodline inside her body was still under Eliezer's control. The Neo-Demon needed to devour it.

Above Sophia's body, the image of an Abyssfire Demon Phoenix and a Styx Dragon appeared. They were illusions created by the two bloodlines inside the Neo-Demon's body. Nirvanic Fire formed a dome that contained both creatures.

If the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix had all of his power, it could put up a fight against the Styx Dragon and the devouring ability of the Chaotic-Core. However, it was now under the Ten Tower Formation's force field and the attack of the Nirvanic Fire.

The Styx Dragon's eyes were filled with hunger and cruelty as it looked at his opponent. The creature did not wait and launched itself at the prey in front of him.

Sophia's face was completely calm, a complete contrast to the battlefield above and inside her body.

"Woman, I will kill you, even if it's the last thing I will do!" Eliezer's True Soul clashed with Sophia's True Name. There was madness on the demon's eyes as he endured the power of the Nirvanic Flame. Before, he could have defeated his enemy with ease and provoked great damage to the soul of the Neo-Demon, but now he could not beat the glowing letters.

Even though most of the force in the Nirvanic Flame targeted Eliezer's True Soul, some of its power also reached Sophia's soul. Luckily, her soul was much more resilient than the one of a normal Rank 3 life form due to the constant tempering of Abyss Aura.

Despite the Neo-Demon racial advantages, the Nirvanic Flame was dangerous for her. The lowest threshold for undergoing Nirvanic Rebirth was Rank 4. If the full power of the flame targeted her, she would have perished.

The Styx Dragon was having a much easier time overpowering its opponent and enduring the Nirvanic Flame. The creature attacked the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix without mercy. You could hear the cries of the demonic bloodline as pieces of its body were being eaten.

Sophia's bloodline devoured its enemy while strengthening itself. The Chaotic-Core was constantly spinning as it swallowed pieces of the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix bloodline. The laws in Nirvanic Rebirth were also drawn into the merging process.

As the Neo-Demon's bloodline grew stronger, something happened with her True Name.

Eliezer's True Soul had just clashed with his opponent when he noticed how the letter started to morph. The transformation took less than a second. For an instant, white light filled the area.

Before Eliezer could even analyze the change on the Neo-Demon's True Name, an endless force was released from it.

The force grasped the demon's True Soul and began to squeeze it. Eliezer could not believe what was happening. Before they had fought on equal ground, but after the True Name's transformation, he was being crushed.

And the nightmare for the demon was only starting. The True Name not only incapacitate him, but it also began to absorb parts of his True Soul. That was purified and siphoned into Sophia's soul.

Sophia was not too surprised by the fact her True Name had evolved. After the Neo-Demon reached Rank 3, it was already on the brink of evolution. This fight acted as a catalyzer that brought its power to a new level.

She had not considered her True Name's evolution in her plan, since it relied too much on chance. The powers to incapacitate Eliezer's True Soul was not shocking since her True Name had always been related to the soul and spiritual entities.

However, the ability to swallow parts of the demon's soul and send them to her came as a pleasant surprise for Sophia.

With that energy nourishing the Neo-Demon's soul, her capability to overcome Nirvanic Rebirth grew exponentially. Sophia did not let her guard down, but she was able to relax a little and feel the benefits of the Nirvanic Flame.

Sophia felt her soul and consciousness being tempered while the impurities in them were burned.

Inside the magic tower, Zatiel was looking at Sophia with his Eye of Life and Creation. From the moment she started her fight with the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix, he had been awake and monitoring her condition.

Zatiel's body now looked like the one of a man in his forties. A golden aura covered him that would give mortals the sensation of being in the presence of the divine.

From the moment Sophia arrived covered with Nirvanic Fire, his expression had been solemn. Even if he could bring her back if she failed, the idea of not seeing her face for hundreds of years bothered him greatly. However, the moment he noticed the changes in her soul, a happy smile appeared on his face, and he rested.

The cries of the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix above Sophia's body finally stopped. This happened because the Styx Dragon devoured him completely. The Chaotic Core had finished swallowing the demon bloodline.

Due to the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix bloodline being a demon bloodline born out of countless mutations, the connection with the ancestor of the original bloodline was so weak it was severed the moment the Styx Dragon won the fight.

"ROOOAAARRR" The Styx Dragon released a roar to display its might. The creature went back to Sophia's body. In the future, a new bloodline will be born from the fusion of him and the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix.

Eliezer's True Soul had already lost the ability to resist the power of Sophia's True Name. A few minutes after his bloodline was assimilated, the demon perished. What remained of his True Soul was turned into a source of energy that invigorated the Neo-Demon's soul.

Now that Eliezer was gone, the power of Nirvanic Rebirth started to concentrate on her. Sophia knew she would not last long under the power of the Nirvanic Flame, but she was not worried. The reason was that her body had begun to disintegrate.

The body of the Neo-Demon, with the only exception of her Chaotic-Core, transformed into ashes. Those ashes, along with the Nirvanic Flame that created them, began to form an egg.

The moment the egg was formed, if the soul stood strong, it means that Nirvanic Rebirth had been overcome.

The chains of light and shadows strengthened by the Law of Killing fell back, showing a white egg. It was three meters tall and two meters wide. It had all types of mysterious runes formed around the shell.

Many Magi were looking at it, some of them Rank 4 life forms that had come in secrecy. Some displayed greed in their eyes since the egg would be a useful experimentation resource. However, none of them dared to act.

Sophia was Zatiel's partner. They were sure that if they attempted to seize her, Heinz would kill them. They feared the Cultivator, so they made sure to hide their desires.

Unfortunately, they did not do it well enough. Zatiel was able to detect their emotions thanks to his Animus abilities. The Eye of Life and Creation focused on each one of them.

'Since they are just thoughts and I am in a good mood, I will be merciful. I will only kill you and not your families.' In Zatiel's mind, not submitting them to endless torture for thinking of harming his lover was magnanimous of him.

A portal made of shadow appeared in front of Zatiel. The same one appeared in front of the white egg. The Neo-Demon hand passed through the portal and touched the egg.

Sophia's soul noticed the hand. When she felt the aura in it, she did not put resistance.

The white egg was moved into the dimension inside the spatial ring.

Zitra appeared on the floor where Zatiel was and saw him looking at the ring on his hand with eyes full of love and a warm smile. The woman did not say anything and limited herself to move to his side and wait for his instructions.

Zatiel did not waste time. Since Sophia would no longer need his assistance, he could start with his own plan. He took a crystal from his ring and communicated with Heinz.

"Brother, go and help Totto. Remain in the shadows for the moment and only show yourself if you see the chance to inflict casualties on the Rank 4 life forms of the Heavenly race."

Heinz was in the sky above the tower. After he heard Zatiel's instructions, he nodded and teleported.

"Let's go to the 1st magic tower." Zatiel looked at Zitra and the woman covered both in shadows. The duo reached the teleportation formation undetected and disappeared from the 11th magic tower.
