Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World

Zatiel believed they could face weak Supernova Domain existences with their new power if they worked together and used the Neo Prima-Rebirth Domain. Still, there was something else they needed to do before returning to the Prima-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield.

"We will head to the Aeternum Empire's capital. You need to participate in the Gods' Tomb Champion Contest, and I have to attend the Soul Rune Convention."

Ezequiel showed some surprise when he heard those words. Winning the champion contest was crucial as it would open the door for them to jump a tier in the sealing of their Apocalyptic Stars, but attending the Soul Rune Convention did not make much sense for him.

"Master, why don't you just hand over the runes to Tritus? That man should handle such a menial task, not to mention the convention already lost its original goal."

The Supreme Neo-Demon knew that the main reason why Zatiel proposed the rune convention and made it in such a public way was to buy time so they could grow stronger. It would stop the Aeternum Empire's powerhouses from attacking them by inciting their greed and desires.

However, when he revealed his ancient identity and made John Erick Rebellion kill the Frost Monster Hearth's leader, the shield the rune convention granted became meaningless..

Not to mention that they already have the power to at least face the nominal leaders of the Magi World's great organizations.

"I already reached the Peak Rank 6  Animax Soul Runemaster, and I need resources and unique items to push my abilities into the Pseudo Rank 7. The convention is an excellent opportunity to find some of those materials and also get rid of the flawed products I made during my training."

Ezequiel nodded after hearing Zatiel's reasoning. Neither of them ever stopped training their profession during the last decade, and they created many "flawed products" during their practice.

Of course, what the duo considered flawed products were superb artifacts and runes in the eyes of any Rank 6 life form.

Using the NRAI, they teleported out of the Will Forging Sea, but each went to a different High World before leaving the realm.

Thanks to their True Wills reaching the Moon Shatterer Rank, they were strong enough to handle the pressure of planting a Soul Seed in a High World.

Invictus reached a High World whose sky contained a never-ending storm. The power of the Law of Lightning in this world surpassed every other law, and if life were allowed to be born, it would manifest like lightning elementals.

He entered the world and, in a matter of seconds, reached the surface. Ezequiel took the second Soul Seed from his True Soul and planted it in the soil with great care.

The moment he did that, his Inner Law Dimension trembled as the Lightning Essence grew stronger, getting very near the Half Completion level.

Zatiel, on the other hand, reached the surface of a world enveloped in a dark and gloomy aura. The essential law in this High World was the Death Law.

Just like Ezequiel, when Zatiel planted the Soul Seed, his Inner Law Dimension trembled, and his Death Essence grew more vigorous, reaching the Peak Minor Completion level.

With their Soul Seeds planted and the creation of the Infinity Heart over, the duo finished their business in the Neo-Demon Realm and returned to the Magi World.

They appeared above the City of the Sun, and since they had some time, they stared at the millions of Neo-Demons moving through the streets.

Every Neo-Demon worked to become stronger. Still, that had a different meaning for a small percentage of the population.

While most Neo-Demons sought to enhance their battle might and their raw power, around five percent of the population took a different path.

Some Neo-Demon focused on professions, not as a side path, but their primary path. There were even some who took painting, philosophy, and even commerce as their purpose in life.

These people still worked to advance in the Ranks, but they did it to improve their cognitive function rather than their battle might.

Zatiel originally meant Neo-Demons to be a race whose sole purpose was the battlefield, but this sign of a complex civilization did not bother him. On the contrary, it brought him joy.

Neo-Demons were not tools. They were the mightiest race in the universe, and each one was a unique existence with dreams and goals. If they desire a path outside of the battlefield, he will support them.

People choosing this path would be either bullied or forced to seek someone's protection in any other race or organization. But, the Neo-Demon Race had a powerful sense of justice and camaraderie.

Besides, although those jobs and professions did not train their souls and bodies, they tempered their wills and spirits, an essential part of a Neo-Demon.

For the Neo-Demon Race, talent in the soul and body could increase easily by assimilating a powerful bloodline, but the will was something they could only depend on themselves.

If someday one of these Neo-Demons chose to take the path of the battlefield and their willpower were strong enough, Zatiel would have no problem securing a mighty bloodline for them.

After giving one last look to their people, Ezequiel and Zatiel focused on the continent's center before disappearing.

The Supreme Neo-Demon covered both of them with his aura, hiding their presence entirely, before enveloping them in white lightning and flashing away.

It was better if they hid their presence to avoid calling unwanted attention and extending their trip longer than needed, so they abstained from using teleportation.

Even though the distance was immense, it did not take long for them to get near the Aeternum Empire's capital. In the distance, they saw a giant golden city floating in the air, millions of kilometers above the ground.

Two massive wings with golden patterns emerged from the city's base, and the amount of energy in them was superior to what any Rank 6 life form could hold inside them.

The name of this flying city was Icarus, the Heavenly Defying City
