Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World

Chapter 1001 Sacred Mountains Killing Formation

?

Zatiel's eyes were sharp as he felt the changes in the billions of drones inside his Inner Universe. 

It was not only their bodies, the ones that the Samsara Thearch was going to change since he began to create soul dimensions inside each and every one of their brains using the killing intent and broken souls obtained from the implosion of the Nightmare Inferno Realm.

Those were unlike normal souls since there was only a primitive desire to destroy their target and kill, no matter what. Zatiel implemented that change since, even for him, controlling every move of trillions of puppets with his mind would be hard, but if they instinctively attacked, it would be much easier.

After six months, the Samsara Thearch was finally able to rest since the evolution of the drones was over. 

Their cells had already reached their saturation point, and their bodies were immortal, allowing them to keep fighting even if their heads or hearts went missing.

The only way those drones would stop attacking the enemy was if every extremity of their bodies was gone, and even in that situation, they would not stop fighting. Zatiel programmed them to self-destruct as long as that could do a little more damage to the enemy.

Now that the disposable weapons of war were completed, Zatiel focused on the Nine Sacred Mountains. The killing intent in each of them had reached such an outlandish level that it began to generate spiritual life forms. 

In the six months in which Zatiel focused on the drones' transformations, countless red-howling ghosts began to flood the skyless earth. Normally, those creatures born out of killing intent would have wreaked havoc, but the only life forms remaining in the Daybreak Universe were powerhouses that the ghosts did not dare to get close to.

Zatiel took a deep breath as his Thanatos Eye and Samsara Pupil began to glow. He clasped his hands and began to take control of the energy of the Daybreak Universe.

Red pillars made of destructive energy and monstrous killing intent emerged from each of the Sacred Mountains, connecting the nine and forming a pentagram covering the entire Daybreak Universe. 

Since the enemy was going to attack where they lived, there was no way the Samsara Thearch would not use the home advantage. 

Zatiel opened his mouth, allowing streams of dark purple shining blood to emerge. That was his bloodline, and he would use its power to generate a massive runic formation.

Runes began to fall from the sky into the pentagram formed by the connection of the Sacred Mountains. As more and more runes fused into the pentagram, the greater the power of this one became, evolving into something unique, marvelous, and full of destructive power.

Just the creation of this massive universal formation unleashed toxic radiation that no one beneath Extreme Rank 9 could have survived. One more reason why it was wise to have evacuated everybody.

Zatiel's paragon armor constantly changed between the Reflection of Ascension and the Reflection of Annihilation. 

A formation that covered an entire Daybreak Universe's surface required a domain over cosmic forces that surpassed the limit of the Samsara Thearch's abilities, which was why the Reflection of Ascension was needed. 

As for the Reflection of Annihilation, that was more simple. The sole purpose of this formation was to destroy, and he wanted anyone who survived its initial strike to suffer poisonous wounds that would corrode their souls. 

Activating two reflections at the same time was not possible for Zatiel, which was why he exchanged between the two. It was extremely taxing and pushed him to the limit, but all would be worth it once he unleashed its power over the Beyonder's Knight.

As the Samsara Thearch worked in the massive universal formation made of killing intent and end energy, the rest of the powerhouses were also using every single second to grow stronger.

Venganza and Ezequiel had already managed to fuse both their Truths and Eternal Flames, gaining access to Omnipotence. Since one of their paths evolved artificially, they couldn't push their cultivation beyond the beginning of the Middle Stage. But that did not mean they could not grow stronger.

Since the Emptiness Thearch and Revenge Thearch had had access to Omnipotence, they could unleash Fourth Realm Omnipotent Spells, allowing them to unleash the full might of their cultivation.

Zatiel had dozens of thousands of years to acclimate to his new powers and the creation of spells capable of unleashing the full might of his existence, but the duo had little less than three years left, so every second counted.

Ezequiel sought to create an attack that could draw the power of the Emptiness into every muscle fiber while simultaneously breaking every shackle, allowing him to exert strength beyond his limit. 

Venganza, on the other hand, wanted a spell capable of erasing the enemy's defenses and could infiltrate their bodies and souls, burning them from the inside out.

Although just focusing on offense and ignoring defense was dangerous, there was not enough time, and the duo was ready to pay the ultimate price if it meant protecting the Daybreak Universe.

Beneath the two Thearchs, the Sacred Kings were also in the midst of adjusting to their new powers. Their weapons improved their battle power and granted them access to unique skills that could harm even Limit Initial Stage life forms.

All of them wanted to master their skills as soon as possible. Their mission was to ensure no one would interrupt the battle of Zatiel, Venganza, and Ezequiel. At the level of the three, everything could change in a second, so they would do all in their power to ensure they could fight unhindered.

However, the Sacred Kings knew it would not be easy. The enemies they would face were the Knights of a monster that consumed universes for fun and had existed from time immemorial. That was why they were ready to burn their souls if needed.

Not far from them, the more than five hundred Extreme Rank 9 warriors had already divided themselves into seventy-two groups. The battle power between each group was around the same, except for the six led by one of the individuals with Rank 10 battle power.

Roku led a formation that consisted of people that followed the path of body refinement, relying only on exploding the might of their flesh and blood. 

He was at the core of a giant beast resembling a massive semi-humanoid creature with bone armor, seven arms, and large tails. The most bizarre thing about it was the lack of a head and eyes in the chest of its chest.

Nor far was Ira. His group was formed solely of Extreme Rank 9 Depravias since they could break free of their physical form, fusing into a single mass of dream energy. 

The Depravita of Wrath was at the center of a beast resembling a giant fish with enormous wings. 

Eve, the woman with a mastery over bloodlines that could match that of the Samsara Thearch, had the most diverse group. She had carefully chosen the ones that would fight by her side since she wanted the formation to be augmented by the resonation of their lineage.

Her formation had a dragon's body, phoenix wings, and the head of a goat, lion, and snake. It resembled a messy amalgamation of different beasts, but despite its chaotic appearance, its power was sublime. 

Ragnar's group was composed of two types of people, those with either silver stars or black holes around their heads. He had chosen members of the Viking Lineage and Primordial Lineage since they were the best when it came to driving the power of the world.

The formation he generated was that of an infernal humanoid creature. It had obsidian skin with four arms and axes in each of them.

Pan Gu did not pick people from the Primordial Lineage. His mastery over the World Strength was already superb, and he sought warriors that could cover his weak points, which was why all those in his group had spiritual or energy bodies.

He was at the core of a giant crow with two heads and eyes on its wings. 

Finally, Bahamut, the Ancient Patriarch of the Prima Dragon Race, had chosen members with a powerful draconic lineage, and the entity he brought to life was a dragon with three heads.

Everybody, from the weakest to the strongest, was using every minute to increase their powers. That was not just their determination but also the only way they could endure the pressure that was waiting for the battle to start.

They would face the army of the monster that had been after their universe for over an Epoch. If they manage to succeed, what awaits the Daybreak Universe is infinite glory and a bright future. 

As for failure, that meant that everyone and everything they have ever known would cease to exist.

Those were the stakes of this war and the reason why they could not fail.
