Abyssal Lord of the Magi World
chapter-988

'Time is of the essence, but the good thing is that powerful entities should not guard the last three treasures, and it would not be hard to take them.'

Zatiel's eyes narrowed as he focused, watching the flow of time to see what dangers he would face with the last three treasures. Looking into the future was not flawless since anyone in the Fourth Realm could change it. Yet, by using his domain over causality, his prophecy should be able to give a stable prediction as long as no one with cultivation capable of Omnipotence interfered.

It took him a few hours, but Zatiel was able to make sure that there were no existential dangers in either of the three remaining treasures. That gave him the confidence to take the next step.

The Samsara Thearch's body trembled for a moment as a golden humanoid the size of a universe and a draconic figure with eighteen wings on his back emerged.

As soon as the Primordial Body Incarnation and Universe Will Incarnation emerged from his body, Zatiel felt his power reduce immensely. His cultivation fell to the beginning of the Middle Stage, and the White Sun Pupil lost its power.

The Three Samsara Incarnations was a unique spell that allowed the generation of powerful incarnations to fix the flaws of your existence. Zatiel had always mastered the Law Path and soul force to an incredible degree, but his domain over the Concept Path and body refinement lagged. That was why breaking the fusion between the three generated such a powerful backlash on him.

It would be temporary, and they could fuse again in the future, so there was no real problem. Since now there were three of them, they could go after the treasures simultaneously, saving time.

Unlike the Soul Depravita Incarnation that gained individuality, there was no difference between the Primordial Body Incarnation, Universe Will Incarnation, and the Samsara Thearch.

After spending dozens of thousands of years as one, the trio's thoughts and egos were the same, so there was no need for words, and they only nodded to each other before flashing in different directions.

The Universe Will Incarnation was the first one to reach his destination. In front of him was a multicolored fog extending for hundreds of billions of light years, more than twenty times his size.

What he wanted was not the multicolored fog but the thing at its center. Right at the phenomenon's core was the treasure he was looking for, and he needed to go in and take it.

Of course, the Universe Will Incarnation did not simply rush into the multicolored fog. While the phenomenon lacked destructive power, it was able to affect the mind of Fourth Realm life forms, tricking them into illusions so real that they would lose themselves in it.

As the embodiment of the Samsara Thearch's willpower, the spiritual defenses of the Universe Will were superb, but even he had to be careful with what would come next.

Ensuring his defenses were at their peak, the Universe Will Incarnation entered the multicolored fog. Right after that, he found himself in a massive labyrinth made of mirrors.

Immediately, the Universe Will Incarnation's eyes glowed, and waves of golden flames emerged from his body in every direction, trying to shatter the labyrinth. To his surprise, it was able to endure the immense might of his Eternal Flame of Justice.

'I see. Instead of putting me in an illusion I could break by brute force, it generated this place in order to trick my senses. It is a real formation that reaches the core of this place but is full of tricks meant to make me lose my sense of direction, trapping me forever.'

A small smile appeared on the Universe Will Incarnation as he began to walk forward calmly. It would not be easy, but that was not a problem since he was ready for this challenge.

There was another strange phenomenon not too far away from the multicolored fog. This one resembled a massive black hole, but its presence in the Emptiness was extremely odd.

Space-time in the Emptiness did not act like it did inside a standard super universe, so the creation of black holes should theoretically not be possible.

However, there was no way to deny that it was a phenomenon that kept devouring more and more energy, growing stronger.

When the Primordial Body Incarnation reached this place, his eyes narrowed since the black hole was truly impressive, but it was more than just that. He lacked the special eyes of the Samsara Thearch, but his connection to the Emptiness was not weaker than that of a Lord of Emptiness, allowing his mind to fuse with the world around him,

A crown of thirteen silver stars appeared in the Primordial Body Incarnation's head as he pushed his ability to commune with the Emptiness. The next second, a sharp light appeared in his eyes since the black hole had vanished, replaced by what could only be described as a bleeding heart generating a domain of darkness and gravity.

"Thump."

It was not static. From time to time, the bleeding heart would unleash a beat when it devoured enough energy.

'The heart of an ancient powerhouse? It might be trying to resurrect, but I don't see it happening anytime soon.'

Interfering with the resurrection of someone else was not a pleasant feeling, but there was no hesitation on the Primordial Body Incarnation.

'There is a time for everything, a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal. Your time is over.'

Just like the Universe Will Incarnation, the Primordial Body Incanaton would need to reach the center of this massive singularity of destruction to seal the treasure and take it with him.

While flying directly into the core of the black hole would be the shortest route, it would also carry the greatest danger since he would have to face the destructive gravity of the black hole head-on. If he reached the core of the phenomenon but was not in control of his body, then the bleeding heart could easily devour him just like it does with everything else that entered its domain.

The Primordial Body Incarnation analyzed the black hole for several days before flashing with his draconic body forward. Instead of taking a straight path, it began to fly around the black hole, moving around its orbits as it slowly advanced to its core.

That way would take much more time, but it would also help the Primordial Body Incarnation adapt to the crushing gravity much better, allowing him to keep control of his body when he reached the center.

Just like the two incarnations, the Samsara Thearch destination was what seemed to be a phenomenon. He was standing in front of a large sun that formed in the Emptiness.

It was hard to determine its origin, even for someone with Zatiel's power, since the phenomenon was incredibly old.

Right now, that large sun was growing smaller and smaller as the core's temperature and pressure rose to a level that made even someone like the Samsara Thearch put distance between them.

The treasure Zatiel was looking for was the shrinking sun, but he had yet to act because it still had to reach its final form.

If the Samsara Thearch were to seal the sun right now, it would only be obtaining a treasure capable of making a weak Rank 10 Artifact, not something that could push the battle power of someone to the Peak of the Initial Stage.

Zatiel's eyes were sharp as the once large sun became no larger than an apple, and he immediately activated his defenses as the outer layer began to break apart, releasing an immense burst of energy and light.

Once the sun became just a tiny dot of light the size of a grain of rice, and right before it would unleash all its energy into a supernova of cosmic proportions, Zatiel appeared in front of it and grabbed it with both hands.

There was nothing that the dot of light wanted to do other than unleash all the energy inside into a blast of destruction, but Zatiel would not let it happen. His Samsara Pupil began to glow as he contained the explosions, inscribing rune after rune over the surface of the dot of light.

Zatiel's arms trembled as the skin and muscles on his hands burned due to the immense burning radiation that the dot of light was unleashing, but he clenched his teeth as he carried on.

After an hour and Zatiel engraving over a trillion runes with the power of the Samsara Truth in the dot of light, this one finally stabilized.

The Samsara Thearch opened his hands and smiled as he saw the dot of light covered in dark purple runes and felt its power. He then looked into the distance, and his smile grew wider since he could see the Primordial Body Incarnation and Universe Will Incarnation flying in his direction, each holding a treasure.
