Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

chapter-515
When Ezequiel heard Roku's words and saw the physical characteristics of his body, a meaningful light appeared in his eyes.
A path that retained and enhanced a species' beneficial characteristics while eliminating the negative ones was the essence of the Bloodline Heart and what granted the Neo-Demon Race their unique physical constitution.
"There are simulates, but the core of the paths are still different."
Zatiel's voice sounded in Ezequiel's mind, and the Supreme Neo-Demon turned to the side and saw this one standing there, looking to the sky.
The Rebirth Eye unleashed its full power as it focused on the first member of the newly born Astral Fiend Race."The path that man took to develop his body has almost endless potential, and it is full of possibilities, but it is hard to say how much he can develop it. A Neo-Demon's body, on the other hand, has an already fixed path. We only need to strengthen our True Doomsday Bodies and draw the full potential of the Infinity Heart. With that, we will achieve a constitution capable of withstanding the harsh environment beyond the Cosmic Wall."
As he spoke, Zatiel released a stream of Rebirth Force that entered Ezequiel's body and sped up his recovery.
Although the term Cosmic Wall was new to Ezequiel, he had an idea of what it meant.
"I wonder how many of them will be able to escape?"
Zatiel's remark drew some surprise in the Supreme Neo-Demon.
"Those fourteen really don't stand a chance? The Emperor and King Bork are Peak Rank 6 life forms and must have some powerful life-saving cards."
Ezequiel knew very well that numbers matter very little when the difference in power was too high, but he did not feel this was the case. While Roku was undoubtedly the one with the highest individual strength, the difference did not seem that much as to allow him to overwhelm the fourteen Supernova Law Domain existences.Zatiel glanced at Ezequiel before shaking his head and focusing once again on the Astral Fiend.
"Ezequiel, to truly form a new supernatural hybrid race, it is not so simple as to merely mix the genetic code of two different species. To achieve it, you need to fuse the laws that give birth to their existence. Although the fusion is not perfect, Roku has established the framework of a new cosmic force."
The Supreme Neo-Demon's eyes widened when he heard that since he understood what those words meant.
"He has already begun the creation of his own Omega Law before even reaching Rank 7!"
"That is right. The benefits that Roku's existence obtained thanks to that feat are immense, and his battle power already surpassed the Rank 6 and fully positioned himself at the Void Creator level."
Before, Ezequiel was just curious, but now shock filled his heart. He could see the wisp of respect and recognition in Zatiel's eyes, something that not even an actual Rank 8 life form could provoke.
It was clear for the Supreme Neo-Demon that Roku's talent was indeed at the level even the mighty Primarchs would consider impressive.
"¡BOOM!"
The explosion drew Ezequiel's attention back to the void, and it originated from within Roku's body after finishing his transformation.
The red and blue yin-yang Supernova Law Domain vanished within Roku's body, forming a crystal orb in the center of his chest.
Giant cracks in space-time formed around the Astral Fiend. While his forty-five-meter height could not compare with the enormous Law Domains of the Royals, his pressure surpassed everybody else combined.
Fear crept into the hearts of the Emperor and the Kings when they felt Roku's immense power and how every fiber of his body contained an abominable physical might.
King Bork and Kurt stared at each other, and after a moment, the first showed a downcast expression before slowly nodding. Fighting was no longer an option, and they needed to appease Roku before things escalated.
The first step they needed to take was to crown him as the Gods' Tomb Champion Contest winner. As for any other demand Roku had, they could address them once things calmed down.
"Roku, I..." Kurt did not manage to finish his sentence before Roku vanished, leaving nothing more than a humanoid crack in space-time.
"¡AHHHH!"
At the same time, the Royals heard a cry of pain and saw how the Astral Fiend pierced into the fat King's newly reconstructed Law Domain and was now holding him in his hand.
Despite being surrounded by a sea of destructive force containing the power of the laws and not using any form of energy to protect his body, the Astral Fiend was completely intact.
From within the burning plasma that was the fat King's Supernova Law Domain, Roku stared at the rest of the Royal with a demonic smile before clenching his fist.
Kurt and the others saw with horror how the fat King's body exploded like a balloon full of blood, and things did not end there. The hand also shattered the Inner Law Dimension and True Soul to the point of almost erasing them from existence.
"The Gods' Tomb Champion Contest was always a means for an end, but it seems I no longer have to wait. I don't need you to give me anything as I prefer to take it away from your corpses!" At this point, Roku made a slight pause and turned toward Kurt. "I like your crown, Father."
Kurt Silverlight trembled when he heard those words. Without hesitation, he unleashed all of his power and flashed toward the Magi World.
The rest of the Kings also did the same. They knew that in the void, where nothing restricted Roku, they were like lambs in front of a wolf.
Disdain appeared in Roku's eyes when he saw the Royals' cowardly behavior. An aura full of slaughter intent emerged from within him as he moved, and the first one he intended to kill wasn't the Emperor but King Bork.
"Scheming rat, you will be the first one to die!"
By the time King Bork heard those words, Roku had already pierced into his Supernova Law Domain. The shadow creatures acted on their own and launched themselves against the enemy, but the Astral Fiend's momentum was more than enough to obliterate them.
The threat of death enhanced King Bork's senses, and just before the Astral Fiend's fist could destroy him, a ring on his hand shattered, forming dozens of shadow chains that wrapped themselves around Roku.
Surprise appeared in Roku's eyes when he noticed that the chains could restrict him despite his power. It became clear for him that the ring on King Bork's hand was a Rank 7 Artifact.
King Bork's face showed the immense pain he felt for having to use the ring, as it was his most valuable position, but right now, there was nothing more important than to save his life.
"ROAR!"
Just when he thought he managed to save his life, King Bork heard a demonic roar and noticed how Roku made his energy explode and even burned some of his life force.
Despair invaded King Bork when he saw the Astral Fiend shattering the shadow chains before arriving right in front of him and connecting a powerful fist on his body.
King Bork, the legendary man that everybody thought would become the next Emperor, perished under the hands of an underdog no one believed in.
