Chapter 1602: Special Ability.

?

Aeternus observed to himself and the other clones, "These threads can heal and restore themselves quickly. If I don't overwhelm the barrier instantly, I won't be able to destroy it."

He can see that he will need to destroy all the threads at once to destroy the seal. That will require a power capable of destroying 100,000 Supreme Powers at once. Such a thing doesn't exist. At least not on the light side of the void universe.

"This is interesting." He said, as he observed the flickering barrier. "How did they make it work?"

A world god is required to destroy the seal. That much is certain. The alternative is to kill the Supreme Tyrants that made the seal one by one. So he can't believe that a couple of sovereigns managed to come up with something like that.

It is still impressive that they managed to get thousands of Supreme powers to work together, even if they had the assistance of the Will of the Realm. It is doubly impressive that they managed to weave something like this even though the supreme power they used wasn't theirs.

This is because, Supreme powers don't work together normally. Concepts don't even work together, much less supreme laws and the power they bestow.

That's why Supreme Origin gods don't use world fragments. They can't combine the Supreme Law of another entity with theirs. The best they can use a world fragment for is to use its power source to empower their Supreme Law instead of using Origin essence.

But that's just two Supreme powers. One can imagine just how impressive it is to fuse a hundred thousand Supreme Powers. Not only did they make them work together to form the seal, they also made the seal stable and capable of regeneration.

Legion is already an outlier capable of fusing Supreme powers of the same origin, and that's only because of the Tree Father's spark of power, which enables them to control power from different sources.

But even then, they can't make the Supreme Power do the same thing. Legion-5 used three Supreme Powers, but he was always using them for different things. It would have been a waste to use two or three Supreme Powers for defense. One is already enough to reach the limit of the light side.

So one can imagine just how powerful a seal focused on defense with 100,000 Supreme Powers is. It is understandable that Aeternus and all of Legion are wondering how the Tyrants managed to do this.

Aeternus spent more time examining the barrier. He noticed some slight differences. Legion's fusion is qualitative, while the fusion in the seal is quantitative. This is its inherent weakness.

The Supreme powers possessed by Legion have the advantage of having the same origin, so the direction and purpose after fusion can be manipulated. They can be used for different things or for the same thing.

The fused Supreme Powers of the Tyrants, on the other hand, only have the same direction and purpose. They do the same thing at the same time, which is to resist attacks, and they can't do anything else.

Legion can line up their Supreme Power so that even if one is defeated, another one can switch from doing something else to taking its place. This seal can't do that. Its advantage is that 100,000 of them have to be destroyed at once to destroy the seal. The disadvantage is that a single attack can destroy 100,000 of them and the seal.

He thought to himself, "This is powerful. It is very powerful. But it is not perfect. Nothing is perfect."

Soverick joined in, "These threads look like roots. They look like the roots that the Tree Father saw infiltrating the whole realm. This could be a unique ability of Tyrants. After all, they descend from Shikis, and there used to be just one Shiki. Maybe that translated into their ability to fuse Supreme Powers."

Helios asked, "But what kind of ability can fuse Supreme Powers of various origins? It is unheard of."

Aeternus shook his head, "It doesn't matter if it is normal or not. What matters is that we can't copy it and I have to destroy the seal."

He concluded that it was an innate ability, not something he could copy. So he decided to move on to breaking the seal.

The configuration of the barrier has granted it almost perfect invulnerability. This is because any attacker can only have one Supreme Law. So they might be able to defeat the threads individually, but they are unlikely to break the threads faster than they heal.

Even demon gods will be stumped by this arrangement, as the seal is being maintained by the divine plane itself. So in a way, trying to break the seal is trying to fight the whole divine plane. Considering that this is not a single divine plane but the amalgamation of several tens of thousands of them, then it is no easy feat.

The Tree Father avoided the seal and passed through when it was open, but now he has to face it head on.

Aeternus whistled appreciatively. "Maybe the Supreme Tyrants were not so desperate when they decided to leave their gates unguarded. Who can break this?"

Then he grinned evilly. "Unfortunately, they have met me."

His eyes have seen through the seal, so he knows how best to attack. He raised his clawed black hand towards the seal. Chaos energy gushed out of his hand and submerged the barrier. The translucent barrier became covered with black energy the color of the sky.

He wasn't in a hurry with his attack. He just continued to create more and more Chaos energy without stopping.

He muttered with confidence, "Chaos defeats all. All will fall to Chaos."

He hasn't fully comprehended chaos, but he knows that it represents infinite randomness.

Chaos doesn't have a weakness, but it does have one strength and one strength alone.

That strength is that it corrupts everything with entropy. Then it converts them into itself. So Chaos is always begetting more Chaos.
