Abyssal Lord of the Magi World
chapter-929

"NO! It did not vanish. The spell is inside him!"

Noah's voice broke the silence in the coliseum. His Samsara Eye bled as he pushed it to the limit and saw how the Spear of Ultimate Stillness coursed through Aion's left arm and advanced inside this one's body.

If before people were shocked when they thought Aion had simply made the winged dragon disappear, now their minds could not even react. Not only did most people not understand how Aion made it so the spell could enter through his left arm, but they could not believe someone would intentionally send a spell capable of destroying a Low World into his body.

Aion's eyes showed absolute focus as he emptied his mind of everything, sending the spell from his left arm into his stomach, where it broke into its most basic state.

Noah could see inside Aion's body with the Samsara Eye, but while tearing the spell apart would help, having that massive amount of energy inside his body was still deadly.

What happened next broke what most people thought could be possible.

Aion controlled that massive amount of energy about to explode, making it flow across his body and into his right arm before pointing his index finger toward Lith.

"Redirection."

"BOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!"

That word echoed across the arena as a cannon of super-condense energy emerged from Aion's index finger, shattering the ice walls around him as it flashed to its actual target, the Fallen in the sky.

Lith's face was one of utter stupefaction as, even at this moment, her mind could not understand what was happening. It was after her instincts began to scream danger due to the incoming energy beam that she was able to focus again.

There was little to no energy on the Fallen, and she could not dodge that energy beam. As death seemed inevitable, the Emptiness Thearch teleported her out of danger.

Lith took a deep breath as she saw that energy beam rising to the sky and could not help but sigh as she glanced at Aion. Not only did she lose, but the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage used her own attack to defeat her.

"Aion of the Human Lineage is the winner."

Unlike Aion's first victory, the entire arena began to cheer this time. It did not matter if they knew nothing about him. Every life form in the Daybreak Universe respected the strong since those were the ones that kept the peace everybody enjoyed.

Aion smiled as he heard the cheers and raised his right arm to signify victory before jumping toward his family.

None of the geniuses could take their eyes off Aion as he right now became the most powerful rival in the mind of each. While Noah and Beelzebub were immensely powerful, they at least understood the duo's power, but even after two fights, Aion was still an enigma.

Not only was Aion incredibly fast and with outrageous reflexes, but he could divert any spells and go even further, absorbing them before using their energy to unleash a deadly cannon.

Ezequiel saw the shock and analytic gazes sent to Aion, but he did not waste time. Once a minute passed, he immediately brought the next fighters in.

"Athea of the Lord of Emptiness Lineage vs. Soro of the Eclipse Kobold Lineage."

The next fight involved Athea and a young man with a draconic body and massive dark wings bathed in golden fire.

Soro was a great genius, and his ability was top-tier, but his battle style focused on physical might, so his chances against someone like Athea, who surpassed him in every aspect, were low.

The young man's eyes burned with silver flames as he stared at Athea. Even if he would not win, that did not mean he would not give everything he had in this fight.

Athea could feel the battle intent of Soro, and she clenched her fists as she was ready to respond the same way.

"Fight!"

Ezequiel's voice had yet to fade when Athea and Soro dashed to the other full of killing intent. Explosions filled the arena as dark-golden fire and black-white lightning flooded the sky and the earth.

The duo displayed amazing skills, but in the end, the Emptiness Thearch teleported Soro out of the arena just as Athea's fist was about to shatter his skull.

"Athea, of the Lord of Emptiness Lineage, is the winner."

Although many people cheered for Athea, the excitement in the coliseum was not that high. Her battle with Soro was impressive, but everybody still had Aion's fight in their minds.

Ezequiel showed little concern for the state of the crowd, and a minute after declaring the winner, he sent Athea out of the arena and brought the next fighters.

The next three battles were impressive on their own, but none of them were able to rally the crowd, and while the geniuses displayed amazing battle skills, they were still a level beneath those like Aion, Noah, and Beelzebub.

After the final's second round ended and nine winners emerged, Ezequiel scanned the geniuses. He didn't need to ask if they were prepared for their upcoming battles, as he knew they were all ready to take them on immediately.

The nine winners of the second round appeared in the arena as Ezequiel sent a new black sphere full of white arcs of lightning into the sky.

"The one that picks the number 9 will pass to the next round without the need to fight. You will choose according to the time you took to finish your battles.

Noah, since your time to secure your place was zero seconds, you will pick first."

Noah nodded and stepped forward as he focused on the black sphere. There was only one number he did not want, yet once the arc of lightning reached his hand, that was what he got.

An awkward expression appeared on Noah's face as he showed his number, and everybody saw it was no other than 9.

Once was alright, two was a little too many, but three times made it so that all the geniuses wanted nothing more than to beat Noah.

All of them knew that Noah had the power to reach the final stage, but it was still annoying.

Noah could only sigh as there was nothing he could do about it.

'Damn luck.'
