Abyssal Lord of the Magi World
chapter-885

Everybody in the group recognized that fluffy dog. Strange expressions appeared on the faces of Sirik, Niti, Mathew, and Bjorn, but there was nothing they could do other than sigh and perform a deep bow.

Roku showed an odd smile before he and the other two powerhouses of the Nightmare Inferno Realm also bowed.

The mighty Eldar showed awe as it saw the dog. Despite being a Late Rank 9 life form, the dragon felt a deep sense of inferiority when it focused on the phantom.

Noah saw how everybody in the group bowed at the phantom of the dog, and he laughed a little before bowing as well. Of course, he recognized that animal since he was the first pet of his father, Tao.

All the people above the dragon, including a mighty Nightmare King like Roku, showed respect to Tao because this one was the Heavenly Guardian Beast of the Neo-Demon Race.

Tao had that title because of its incredibly high cultivation and the help it had brought to the Daybreak Universe. First of all, to understand how that little dog became so strong, one had to comprehend the difference between the Daybreak Universe and other standard super universes.

The Prima Universe and Alpha Universe were powerful super universes capable of giving birth to Rank 10 life forms, but they were still far from the mighty Daybreak Universe.

The waves that flooded the Emptiness hid most super universes, but the Daybreak Universe was so powerful that life forms near it could detect it.

Such a majestic universe filled with energy and forces at the Fourth Realm was a great temptation, and dozens of Rank 10 life forms had attempted to invade it.

Sadly for all those entities, their fates were sealed when they entered the Daybreak Universe. The combined might of the Endless Wheel of Samsara Reincarnation and the Universe Will destroyed the soul of every single alien entity that attempted to invade.

Actually, the people of the Daybreak Universe took the invasion of alien life forms as fortuitous events since the broken pieces of their souls would nurture the laws, and the bodies they left were incredibly useful.

In the beginning, the Sacred Kings and Thearchs were having heated discussions on how to proceed with the alien life forms' bodies. All of them wanted them as they would help cultivate their bodies and bloodlines, but there were not enough.

In the end, they decided to give the bodies to the one that could contribute to the Daybreak Universe the most and whom they knew had the complete trust of the Samsara Thearch, Tao.

Tao's mentality was not that different from a mortal dog. He loved to help people that treated him well, so the Sacred King and Thearchs did not have a hard time making him go along with their plan.

Before the Ultimate Multiversal War began, Tao had barely reached Rank 7, so he could not help. Yet, as it began to devour those Rank 10 life forms, he grew incredibly fast and powerful.

Tao's cultivation was hard to measure, but he was considered a Rank 10 life form.

Things did not end there. Tao gave birth to thousands of Rank 9 Drones using the bodies of those alien life forms as raw matter. Although they lacked a proper soul, those drones could follow complex commands and were now the main force running the Samsara Realm.

Usually, someone with that power and that provided so much for the Daybreak Universe should earn the title of Thearch. Yet, if they were to give it to a dog that spent his days eating and sleeping, it would really affect the imposing might of that title.

After some consideration, the Sacred King and Thearchs decided to honor Tao with the title of Heavenly Guardian Beast of the Neo-Demon Race. They also stated that everybody other than Thearchs had to bow when they saw him, showing the respect he deserved.

No one really had a problem with that rule, but they found it weird to bow to the phantom of a sleeping dog.

As the youths straight up their positions, a fighting spirit appeared in their eyes. Tao's power formed the phantom that covered the sky, and the Holy Guardian Beast of the Neo-Demon Race lived in no other place than the Daybreak Sector.

Sirik, Niti, Mathew, and Bjorn clenched their fists as they finally reached where the First Samsara Tournament would take place!

The mighty Eldar that advanced at shocking speed was forced to slow down as it could no longer fold space. The Daybreak Sector was the center of the Daybreak Universe, and everything in it was much more potent than everywhere else, including space-time.

Roku saw the Eldar's speed change and took a deep breath before clenching his fist and striking forward.

"CRACK!"

A shock wave emerged when the fist struck the air, and billions of small cracks formed in space. Thanks to them, the Eldar could fold space once again and flash forward.

Noah's eyes widened as he saw how easily Roku could break space, and he was surprised. He knew the immense amount of power needed for that feat.

"Is Lord Roku a De-Facto Rank 10 life form?"

Niti, Mathew, and Bjorn turned toward Roku with wonder and expectation in their eyes.

While the Prima Universe used to have the title of Primarchs to speak about Late Rank 9 life forms, individuals with that strength were far from enough to be called top powerhouses in the Daybreak Universe.

Although the Daybreak Universe had Thearchs, life forms that fully evolved to the Fourth Realm, not counting the Samsara Thearch, who was in deep cultivation, only two existed. That is why De-Facto Rank 10 life forms were considered the highest peak.

Roku saw the interest in Noah and the others and smiled when he saw the pride on Sirik's face.

"My destructive power can reach Rank 10 thanks to my granular control over my existence. Accurately speaking, I am a Peak Fourth Evolution Extreme Rank 9.

However, I obtained one of the lucky chances left by your father in the Nightmare Inferno Realm. With it, my strength does rise to the De-Facto Rank 10. That is why I can leave my domains without worry since the other Nightmare Kings know that if they do something, they will regret it." Roku smiled as he spoke, but his eyes showed a level of savagery that did honor his title.
