Abyssal Lord of the Magi World
chapter-709

Venganza and the Flame Imperator had just crossed the Final Gate when hundreds of worlds, suns, black holes, and other powerful heavenly bodies came crushing on them.

That onslaught would have pushed a Four Evolution Extreme Rank 4 life form to the limit, but Venganza only smiled while the Flame Imperator showed boredom.

Venganza extended his right arm as the black hole materialized around his body. An invisible force that carried a sense of absolute unity was fired from his palm, crushing everything in its path.

As for the Flame Imperator. He activated his white sun and also extended his right arm. Pulses of white flames emerged from his palm, and their power was shocking.

Anything the Flame Imperator's pulses touched would freeze before extinguishing. It was a power that no law could equal.

The Incarnation of Death and Destruction's eyes narrowed as he saw those pulses, and enlightenment soon appeared in them.

"So that is your power. After obtaining the End Origin Essence, I thought I had understood the epitome of death and destruction, but it seemed I was too naive."

Venganza could see how those heavenly bodies did not just disintegrate. A force acted on the most fundamental component of their existence and pushed them to a state of absolute lack of movement, making them disappear.

The Flame Imperator glanced at Venganza and knew this one saw the principles behind his power.

"My Truth is called Quietus, a force that brought a permanent end to all activity of any kind. Theoretically, it can stop the Epoch Cycles, bringing a universe to true destruction. It should also have the power to sever the cycle of samsara."

For life forms in the Alpha or Prima Universes, the concept Truth would be something completely new, but not for Venganza.

Venganza only smiled after hearing the last part and how the Flame Imperator declared that Quietus should be able to affect samsara and, therefore, the ability of his True Name to bring him back to life.

"Interesting, very interesting. No power in the Law Realm can harm my True Name, but I guess Quietus could do it. After all, it is a power at the Fourth Realm."

The duo spoke calmly, yet the meaning behind their words could fundamentally shock the entire multiverse. Only Rank 10 life forms should be able to use powers at the Fourth Realm!

"Enough games." The Flame Imperator did not particularly like to speak with the Depravita. Those heavenly bodies became an annoyance, so he clasped his hands and unleashed a shock wave that erased all of them.

Now that those heavenly bodies were no longer obscuring their view, Venganza and the Flame Imperator could see the King in Yellow staring at them from a distance, and there was the lifeless body of a woman in his hand.

Venganza's eyes widened as he saw the King in Yellow holding Sophia's body. His aura exploded, unleashing monstrous resentment and hatred.

Unlike his Prima Universe counterpart, the Flame Imperator remained peaceful, as if nothing could disturb him.

The King in Yellow frowned as he saw the duo's behavior. Despite Venganza's rage, he saw that none of them showed worry or concern.

Even if the Eldritch Universe's nature was unique due to its birth, it still was a super universe and contained a Universe Will.

The Heavenly Destroyer Formation was just a test to see the duo's power. Since it was futile, the King in Yellow no longer held the Universe Will back, allowing the Eldritch Universe's entire might to come crashing down on the duo.

Venganza sneered, and the Flame Imperator only shook his head as they felt the Universe Will about to suppress them. Right at the last second, their auras morphed into an Eldritch one.

Their auras were not just Eldritch in nature, but their purity surpassed that of even the Great Old Ones. The Universe Will froze as its targets vanished, then pulled back.

At that exact moment, as shock and realization slightly weakened the King in Yellow's awareness and guard, Venganza and the Flame Imperator flashed forward.

The King in Yellow saw a punch charged with an immense amount of white flames heading to his face, and as he focused on that attack, he felt a sharp strike in the wrist of the hand holding Sophia.

If the woman had remained alive, the Yellow King would have never been so careless, but things were different for a corpse whose only purpose was lousy bait.

Venganza protected Sophia's corpse with a dark force and struck the King in Yellow's wrist, forcing this one to open the palm, allowing him to take the woman away.

The King in Yellow did not really care about the corpse, so he did not waste time with it. He rose his right arm, covered in a yellow force, and protected himself from the Flame Imperator's punch.

"BOOM!" A thunderous blast of white and yellow forces occurred as the Flame Imperator's punch landed on the King in Yellow's arm and pushed this one away.

Venganza stared at Sophia's body before generating a shadow cocoon around her and teleporting it into his Inner Universe. He then focused on the Eldritch Universe King before allowing all the evilness inside his heart to emerge.

The King in Yellow did not show fear toward Venganza, but as he cleaned the black blood that leaked from the corner of his mouth, a sharp light appeared in his eyes.

"I see, so you two also discovered the Third Path to Rank 10."

Venganza did not care about the King in Yellow's words. He only came to the Eldritch Universe with one goal, but just as he was about to charge, the Flame Imperator extended a hand and stopped him.

The Depravita stared at the Alpha Universe Leader and sneered before signaling this one to speak.

"First of all, allow me to say I am impressed. It is easy for me and the Incarnation of Death and Destruction to take that path, but you are a life form born of that man's existence." The Flame Imperator's voice was calm, and his senses were at their peak as he attempted to decipher the King in Yellow's personality.

"Hmph, that failure means nothing to me." The King in Yellow knew about whom the Flame Imperator talked and did not bother to hide his disdain.

The Flame Imperator showed some surprise when he heard that. He was honestly surprised that an Eldritch could utter those types of words.

"I see. Since only the three of us have taken the Third Path and achieved this level, what should we call our state of existence?"

Although those topics seemed meaningless, every word that came out of the Flame Imperator and King in Yellow's mouths had a hidden purpose.

"Life forms that have achieved a battle power equal to a False Path Rank 10 life form, without sacrificing our egos to the Universe Will. I think De-Facto Rank 10 sounds good." The King in Yellow had just finished speaking when a powerful killing intent exploded.

"Enough talking. Let's kill!" Venganza did not endure it anymore and flashed toward the King in Yellow.

The Flame Imperator sighed as he saw the Depravita's behavior. He wanted to learn more about this Eldritch Universe King, but it seemed that would not be possible. His white sun exploded with power, and he also flashed forward.

The King in Yellow did not just wait for them. His eyes glowed, manifesting the Eldritch Universe's law matrix that fueled him with energy before charging toward the duo.

For the first time in the history of the known multiverse, a battle between three life forms with Rank 10 battle power occurred.
