Abyssal Lord of the Magi World
chapter-379

After hearing Ivar's words, Gwyn was able to proceed without a problem. The Eye Holder knew that the Being of Laws had not a reason to lie to him. After all, if he wanted to harm him, there was nothing he could do to stop him.

Seeing that the Eye Holder was ready to proceed, the Being of Law began to act on the miniature Nine Hells.

First, Ivar poured a massive quantity of Origin Power into the pyramid, transforming it from an energy construct to something with a physical body.

After that stage was over, Ivar used half of the Eye of Elemental Chaos' blood to engrave countless laws into the pyramid. Each of them contained a power that could stand equal with the Prima Universe's laws, and some even surpassed them!

The "Nine Hells" obtained a qualitative and evolutionary improvement after Ivar fused that monstrous amount of Origin Power and mighty laws in it. Before, each circle could hold a single True Soul, but now, they became dimensions capable of sealing countless spirits.

The pyramid had become a supreme treasure that any Rank 6 life form would do anything to obtain, but the powerful Being of Laws had not finished yet.

Ivar implanted the golden orb he obtained from the Nightmare Devourer Snake-Whale into the core of Gwyn's Nine Hells.

Once the orb was one with the pyramid and took place as its new heart, Ivar began to feed it with the other half of the Eye of Elemental Chaos' blood.

The golden orb consumed the Rank 7 Eye Holder's blood like a ferocious beast. It began to shine with such a powerful light that forced Zatiel to use his energy to protect his eyes, or else they would melt.

The Neo-Demon was surprised by this event. Thanks to his bloodline, soul's power, and True Doomsday Body, his physical might was equal to a Rank 5 life form. Nevertheless, just the light of the golden orb could harm him.

Zatiel had been using his unique Mind Force to analyze Ivar's work, and it became clear to him that whatever there was in the golden orb was not something simple.

A Rank 6 life form would have exploded by consuming such an immense amount of Rank 7 blood so fast, but the golden orb appeared it could keep swallowing forever.

Finally, after completely devouring all the blood, the golden orb shattered, showing a dark seed with an extremely evil and nefarious aura.

Immediately, the phantasmagorical image of a dreadful tree appeared. It was immense beyond measure, with bloody thorns and leaves that seem to have souls trapped inside.

If it was not for Ivar's dark veil, everybody in the Magi World could have seen this horrible tree.

Zatiel frowned when he saw this monstrous thing. It was not the seed's wicked aura or the horrible tree that bother him. Despite all of his knowledge, he could not find this entity's origin, yet he felt an intrinsic hatred against it.

"I take it that you have been absent for more than a few million years."

The Neo-Demon glanced at Ivar when he heard those words, and after a moment, he nodded.

"This is a Soul Eldritch Tree, a unique life form born in the Primal-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield. They lack wisdom, but they can become incredibly strong, with those of the Royal Class reaching Rank 8 battle power. The younglings have a piece of their progenitor's consciousness protecting them. That is what I am facing now."

The Soul Eldritch Tree's spirit detected the threats to its descendant and was about to fight with all its power. If anyone else had been his opponent, a battle of epic proportions would have started, but Ivar only rose his hand and snapped his finger.

The dreadful phantasmagorical tree trembled for a second before shattering into countless pieces that fused into Gwyn's Nine Hells.

The Eye Holder felt how the pyramid behind him became even more powerful after that, and there was admiration in his eyes as he focused on the Being of Laws.

"The two fools were too weak to have been able to enter deep enough into the Primal-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield to obtain a Royal Soul Eldritch Tree's seed. The one you have can reach Rank 7 upon maturity." After saying that, Ivar touched Gwyn's forehead before pointing at the seed in the pyramid's core.

The Eye Holder felt immense pain, but it only lasted a second. The next second, he felt a connection with the Soul Eldritch Tree's seed, and a massive amount of information filled his mind.

Ivar did not wait for the Eye Holder to recover. He shrank the pyramid until it was small enough to fit in his hand before fusing it with Gwyn's heart.

"I have transformed your Nine Hells into the Eldritch Ghost Underworld. The treasure is the core of your unique Body-refinement Path Technique. By nurturing the Soul Eldritch Tree's seed, not only will your body become stronger, but you will also obtain unique abilities. I already implanted all the information on how to train it in your mind." Ivar turned to Zatiel and also sent a stream of information before speaking again. "Tell me, old man, how the body strengthening system that uses a Pseudo Rank 8 treasure as its core compares to yours?"

Ivar had been able to uncover a lot of Zatiel's secret with only a glance, from the immense might of his bloodline to his powerful body.

He did not detect that the Neo-Demon had three Paths of Power or the Chaotic-Core inside his heart, but that was because he did not use his soul's full power to examine him.

Zatiel felt bothered by Ivar's eccentricity, but there was little he could do. For some reason, the Neo-Demon felt like this Being of Laws had been secluded for a very long time.

He went through the technique and had to admit the principles behind it were very high level.

'This Path Technique can grant a body as powerful and unique as the True Doomsday Body. Extraordinary.' Zatiel was genuinely impressed.

The True Doomsday Body was a unique Path of Power created by the greatest minds of the universe. The fact that the Eldritch Ghost Underworld Path Technique could equal it was incredible.

Of course, there were several significant differences: For starters, to obtain the True Doomsday Body's Path of Power, there was no need for external treasures or the like. Every single Neo-Demon got it after overcoming the Three Severings.

Even for Zatiel, it would have been impossible to grant a Pseudo-Rank 8 treasure to every Neo-Demon that reached Rank 4.

Also, the Eldritch Ghost Underworld Path Technique was limited to nurture the body up to Rank 7, while the True Doomsday Body's Path of Power had no end.

The Neo-Demon looked at the Being of Laws, and after a moment, he gave his answer.

"Around the same until reaching Rank 7."

Ivar's eyes narrowed, and he gave a bow to Zatiel after hearing his answer.

"I appreciate your honesty."

Gwyn was shocked by Ivar's actions. He had found out about Taboo Existences, and he believed Zatiel was one of them, but the last few interactions made it clear that the Neo-Demon was not someone who failed to ascend.

"You can leave now, little brat. Grown-ups have to speak." Ivar waved his hand, and the Eye Hoder left the dark veil.

The Being of Laws and Neo-Demon looked at each other for a moment until the first one spoke.

"I will not ask you identity nor your past power. I can see that you feel no fear from me, so I will not threaten you. I only want to know if you have some information about the Divinity World or the Gods that could help me. I already have my war strategy designed, but more information is always appreciated. After all, you can never know too much. If what you gave me is helpful, I will repay you following the principle of equivalent exchange."

Zatiel looked at the Being of Laws, and his eyes shone with unique light.
