Chapter 484 - Spiritual Totem
The soul forces of the Supreme Neo-Demon and Neo-Demon's Ancestor erupted as an Astral Qi mantle and black hole manifested.
The path other life forms take was not enough to engrave the laws of a super universe more potent than those of the Prima Universe. They needed to tap into a force whose nature stood above a normal universe's matrix.
Luckily, both the All-Devouring Domain and Astral Destroyer Godslayer Mantle were capable of inner cultivation and could work as conduits to guide the Prima-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield's laws into their bodies.
The Law Engraving Rank comprises six engraving stages: Flesh Engraving, Muscle Engraving, Bone Engraving, Marrow and Blood Engraving, Viscera Engraving, and finally Consciousness Engraving.
Every improvement during Rank 5 enhanced an individual's attunement with the laws and allowed their True Soul to grow, purifying and enhancing their soul force.
Standard life forms with just enough talent to enter Rank 6 would usually need a few centuries to complete the six engraving stages and form their Sacred Body of Laws.
Geniuses with inborn Law Bloodlines have an advantage in this Rank as their bodies already contain law runes engraved in their flesh and blood. Some would spend less than a decade in this Rank, with only the Consciousness Engraving Stage taking some time.
Neither Zatiel nor Ezequiel were born with their Law Bloodlines. Still, their purity was as high as those who did, not to mention Astral Origin tempered their flesh and blood.
Despite that, the duo practiced for less than ten minutes before frowning.
"It seems that to finish the Flesh Engraving Stage, we will need to train for one hundred years."
Engraving the Prima-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield's laws would take more than they thought.
They were Neo-Demons with First Order Law Bloodlines, and their lifespan reached hundreds of thousands of years. Nevertheless, the Supreme Neo-Demon and Neo-Demon's Ancestor did not think for a second to accept such a slow cultivation speed.
Ezequiel looked at Zatiel, and after thinking for a moment, the Neo-Demon's Ancestor shrugged his shoulders.
"Whatever, we can always get more." Zatiel took the four Earth Grade Chaos Stones from his space ring, handed two to Ezequiel, and then activated the power of the ones left in his hands.
Chaos Stones had endless uses, and one of them was as a catalyzer for cultivation, exponentially increasing a life form's training speed. Unlike other methods that could rush cultivation, Chaos Stones had no flaws and did not weaken your foundation.
Even though they were flawless in that aspect, almost no one would use Chaos Stones in that way, as a few centuries of training could not compare with their value. However, the Neo-Demons did not think like that.
As they activated the Chaos Stones, a multicolored force invaded the Neo-Demons' bodies and souls. Soon, they both smiled due to their cultivation speed increasing almost twenty times!
...
Usually, the first years of a war would be filled with bloodshed, as both sides fought to establish strongholds and learn the enemy's strength and tactics. Then over time, a standstill would form between the two sides as none would want to risk what they obtained.
However, the carnage inside Gods' Tomb did not diminish with the years. It increased to the point that thousands of battles happened every day, and the number of casualties on both sides reached a level so high that corpses would cover the ground.
The bloodthirst in the Magi's Divine Slayer Force and the Divinity Faith Army peaked over the last decade as both parties knew that Gods' Tomb would soon allow Rank 4, 5, and 6 life forms to enter inside it.
Once that happened, the mighty Rank 3 life forms on both sides, that led the armies and earned immense merits, would become nothing more than servants carrying on menial tasks.
These next few years would be the last chance to influence the war between the Magi World and the Divinity World.
Right now, in one of the upper-middle continents of the Transitional Plane named Astaroth, a company composed of one million Magi assaulted a stronghold controlled by an equal number of Divinity World's soldiers.
The Magi's side unleashed all kinds of attacks, like acid rain, lightning storms, fireballs, ice spears, and some used their bodies to fight.
Knights, priests, paladins, assassins, and more kinds of supernatural soldiers flew out of the Divinity World's stronghold to fight the Magi.
The war power on both sides was equal, with none being able to overwhelm the other. Despite the Magi's Path of Power being more potent than the weak Paths that Gods allowed their subjects to train, the people of the Divinity World's would not hesitate to give their lives in the name of their Divine Lords, not to mention they have the terrain's advantage.
However, there was one section of the battlefield where a force slaughtered the Divinity World's soldiers in their path and got closer and closer to the stronghold.
This force was composed of hundreds of giants, and each contained one hundred Rank 3 life forms with dense bloodline force and a pure Abyss Aura.
The giants were Soul Origin Rune Formations. One type took the form of an eight-winged man bathed in purple fire capable of incredible speed. The other resembled a four-hundred-meter humanoid covered in white lighting with ridiculously high defensive and offensive powers.
Everybody in the army was familiar with these Origin formations. They were the Lightning Spiritual Totem and Fire Spiritual Totem of the Daybreak Clan. Each of them was capable of Rank 4 battle power and could fool the laws of the Gods' Tomb, allowing them to remain in the Transitional Plane.
Hundreds of thousands of warriors covered in white armors flew around the Soul Origin Rune Formations. They would hunt down all the wounded enemies, and if necessary, act as human shields and sacrifice themselves to protect the Spiritual Totems.
One of the Lightning Spiritual Totems displayed a power even more significant than the others. It resembled an unstoppable force as it blasted the knights and paladins in its path and reached the stronghold's center.
Controlling this impressive Soul Origin Rune Formation was Numir and the five Neo-Demon generals.
Numir smiled as she and every Neo-Demon inside the? Lightning Spiritual Totem made their energy explode before attacking the stronghold's power core.
