Abyssal Lord of the Magi World
chapter-377

The power to declare such a grand goal, to erase one of the oldest Paths of Power of the universe and eradicate a Principal World, the ability to summon billions of life forms to battle with just your words, that was the might of Ivar the Flawless!

The organizations' leaders were surprised when they felt the deeply rooted hatred coming from Ivar as he spoke of the Gods. It was clear to everybody that this war started due to personal reasons, but they could not do anything about it.

It would be stupid to think that the Beings of Laws behind them would dare to defy someone who could destroy a Rank 7 life form with a single punch.

However, there was someone who dared to speak out.

"Lord Ivar, the Scientia Kingdom will not participate in this battle." John Erick Rebellion spoke those words with conviction and courage. He was not asking but telling the monstrously powerful entity in front of him that his people would not participate in the bloodshed.

When the rest heard his words, they were shocked. Even though the King of the Scientia Kingdom was known as a mighty warrior who could face a Rank 7 life form, he spoke to someone whose power defied logic.

Even though many hid it, some leaders felt happy that he would defy Ivar since they wanted to see him suffer. Most of them despised the King, but they were too weak to do anything about it.

John Erick Rebellion did not care about what the others were thinking. He knew his people very well, and of those beneath Rank 4, ninety-nine percent were not warriors, so they would only die in a battle of such magnitude.

Of course, he did not act without considering the consequences. He knew that his strength was nothing in front of Ivar and that contradicting such a powerful being would be dangerous, but was hoping that his backing would be enough to save his life and protect his kingdom.

Ivar stared at John Erick for a moment before speaking to everybody.

"I will create a Transitional Plane that will connect the Magi World and the Divinity World. You can call it the Gods' Tomb if you want.

By taking control of this plane and infusing the Magi World's laws in it, we can indirectly attack the Divinity World's consciousness and weaken its defenses.

The Gods will be able to send their people into this plane and try to infuse their own world's laws into it.

The power limit at the beginning will be Rank 3. The battle between warriors of that level will be perfect to temper the Transitional Plane and allow stronger fights to happen in the future.

If I were to allow Beings of Laws to fight from the beginning, although the infusion of the laws into the plane would be faster, the Transitional Plane would break apart."

Ivar's words made everybody reconsider this war. Despite being guided by personal reason, the Being of Laws used a battle strategy that should have taken hundreds of thousands or maybe even millions of years to put in motion.

It was clear this was not a rash decision, and he had been planning this war for a long time.

"As you can see, the people who will take part in this war's first phase would not be cannon fodder.

Everybody who enters the Gods' Tomb would obtain a talisman that will accurately record their military merits. They can use it to get Path Techniques, weapons, runes, cultivation resources, among other treasures.

If the merits are high enough, I can even reforge your body and soul, granting you supreme talent or revive someone whose soul was shattered by the laws.

However, while there are great rewards, there will also be a great risk. Those who die in Gods' Tomb would find resurrection impossible."

After hearing Ivar's words, the Eye Holders and Magi's hearts burned with desire.

Right now, there was no need to mention how to get the billions of warriors. Almost every person in the Magi World would want to participate in this war after knowing the rewards.

Everybody was thrilled with the merit system. The warriors would not have to depend on their superiors or the Being of Laws' goodwill. As long as they got enough points, they could obtain everything they always dream of.

Death being irreversible did not weaken their spirits since most people always counted their current life as the only one they would have.

"When can those at Rank 4 enter the Gods' Tomb!?" The one who shouted was not one of the leaders but a young Eye Holder with black hair and grey bloodline eyes.

Gwyn's entire existence was burning with unbearable yearning. Even though he knew he could get in trouble and it was not his place to speak, he could not control himself when the chance of bringing someone with a broken soul back to life presented itself in front of him.

There was still a long time before he would become a Rank 7 life form, and there was a chance he would die before reaching it, so if he could bring his family back sooner, he would do it.

"What do you think you are doing, speaking directly to Lord Ivar? Apologize right now and leave." The one who spoke was not one of the organizations' leaders but a Rank 4 Eye Holder with white hair and starry bloodline eyes.

Rank 5 life forms surrounded him, and the might of his bloodline reached the Law level.

When Gwyn heard those words, he focused on the man, and killing intent filled his eyes. He would not hesitate to butcher anyone who dared to get in his path.

A tense atmosphere was felt in the members of the Eye Dynasty when this happened. The man with white hair was a High Prince and part of the Holy Clan.

If anyone else dared to direct killing intent at him, the Holy Clan would exterminate him, but Gwyn's identity was extraordinary due to Eve's drop of blood inside his bloodline.

A smile appeared on the High Prince's face when he saw Gwyn's behavior, but before things would escalate, someone interfered.

Zatiel put his hand on the Eye Holder's shoulder and sent a calming power to him.

There was a great contrast between the Eye Holder and the Neo-Demon. The first showed the greatest desire of all those present while the latter showed nothing.

Gwyn was able to calm down and analyze the situation. He gave one last glance to the High Prince before looking at Zatiel.

"Thanks for the help, and I am sorry."

"Don't worry." The Neo-Demon did not blame the Eye Holder for his lack of control. After all, he didn't know if he would have reacted better if the opportunity to bring back his family had presented itself.

"Have you two finished."

The duo had just concluded their conversation when they heard that. The Eye Holder and Neo-Demon looked ahead and saw that Ivar had appeared in front of them.

Before they could speak, the Being of Laws' aura exploded and submerged both.

Zatiel landed in a world full of darkness and hopelessness. Time lost its meaning, and the Neo-Demon did not see a way out.

Ivar's aura did not affect the Neo-Demon's soul or mind, only his will. Thanks to his age and experience, he was able to withstand the endless solitude without a problem.

Gwyn, on the other hand, was shaking. His will was like a man in a small boat in the middle of a tumultuous storm. While it could slip at any time, it remained strong and did not let despair defeat him.

The High Prince on the dynasty's side and an Origin Runemaster on the empire's side were seeing this with a smile on their faces. The idea of the Being of Laws killing the duo was something that brought joy to their heart.

Unfortunately for them, the Neo-Demon and the Eye Holder remained strong. Zatiel was resisting without a problem, and while Gwyn was having a hard time, his willpower was growing stronger.

Ivar retracted his aura after five seconds and looked at the duo before focusing on Zatiel.

"You should come to see me when your Runemaster abilities reach Rank 7. I am a very good Magic Creator, and we could do business." Ivar's words surprised everybody. It was not only that he offered to work with the Neo-Demon but the fact he spoke with him as if they were equals.

The King of the Scientia Kingdom was the only one who was able to accept that development. He even showed a proud face when he remembered his relationship with Zatiel.

The Neo-Demon limited himself to nodding. He did not like Ivar testing him, but he was weak right now and the Being of Laws not trying to read his mind or affecting his soul made things easier to accept.

After seeing Zatiel's gesture, Ivar focused on Gwyn, and a small smile appeared on his face.

"Well done, little brat, no wonder you were able to draw Eve's attention despite being so weak. Since you were able to endure a test meant for old bastards like him and me, I should reward you."
