Chapter 263: Numerous Changes In An Instant
...…..
After looking over the system interface, Azmodeus's eyes landed on the 'High-Human' part of the species catalog.
"Is this what people like Harkath are termed? If so, then I wonder why the system still says that I'm of the regular 'Human' Race… Does it have something else in store for me? Or am I just overthinking things?"
His thoughts stirred as this topic also brought up the question of why the system gave him the Spiritual Island. What was it trying to do to him?
He pondered the matter for a few seconds before ultimately passing it off as yet another thing to be solved in due time.
"I'm sure the System has a reason for everything. Seeing as there would be nothing to gain from harming me, it would be wisest to just sit back and let things play out as they should."
After dispersing the subject from the front of his mind, Azmodeus figured it was about time he went back into the Infinite World. After all, even though only a few minutes had passed for him, an untold number of years went by for Harkath.
If he wished to keep the Overlord's devotion and continue amassing the Power of Faith, he had to show up every once in a while. And what time was better than the present…?
This question lingered as an afterthought, as Azmodeus had already set off for Pandora, zorping through a plethora of space-time layers.
FWIP!
Upon making it back to Pandora after only being gone for a few minutes, he realized that everything had changed. From the atmosphere all the way down to the topography—nothing was the same.
A world once separated by the fires of war—now united under one man. This is the power of Faith—of the belief that one man will punish and protect those he deems fit.
Azmodeus felt like he was on the precipice of something greater as he blazed through the brightly lit skies.
Letting the morning rays cover his immaculate figure, he passed by countless verdant green hills, home to some sort of gnome race.
Going past an assortment of gnome villages and their oddly shaped boot houses, a new area came into view.
This time, there were a vast number of brown, rocky mountains, some covered with snow and some with vibrant green grass. In these wondrous mountains, there lived a variant species of High-Golem—the kind that were over 100 meters tall and walked around like living Earth Gods.
But vastly contrasting to their daunting appearances, they were one of the most peaceful species on Pandora. It even reached the degree that they were termed the 'Giant Lovable Teddy Bears'.
One would find themselves hard-pressed to find a golem killing even the lowliest of insects…
FWAZOOM!
After crossing over the galaxy-sized growth of mountains, Azmodeus saw a giant tree—one so large that even a universe paled in comparison!
"The Divine Tree of Yggdrasil—the home of the High-Elves…"
Azmodeus marveled at the cosmically dazzling sight before him, as he could see shining stars and galaxies spiraling around inside the enormous tree. On these embedded stars, there lived a countless number of elven species—some not even aware of what lay beyond their tiny wells.
"Pandora… I do wonder where exactly you will end up evolving towards… Will you eventually supersede even the Starry Expanse if given enough time? A 7 Layered Plane of Infinity… What sort of concept is that…?"
Azmodeus wasn't even of the necessary strength to find the Core of a 4 Layered Plane of Infinity. After all, they were typically guarded by those in the Black Hole Sovereignty Realm. Whereas his Battle Power was merely equivalent to the Peak Nebula Veil Realm—still a ways off from the Half-Step Black Hole Sovereignty Realm.
"I think it's about time I begin putting my full focus into the grind again. I also have a Galactic Lord to put in his place, and I can't have my Clones do all the work for me…"
Azmodeus had already resolved to have half his Prime Existence leave the Infinite World for an extended period of time, letting time pass at 50 thousand times the rate. This would not only actively increase his cultivation, but it would also allow him to get some decent blood baths going.
But before that point came around, he wanted to consolidate his faith with Harkath, the Omegalord.
FWIP!
His unparalleled figure vanished from view as he left the unequivocally beautiful cosmic tree in his wake, heading off for a location just as splendiferous.
…
Within an open window space on the topmost floor of a skyscraper, touching upon the heavens.
"My Lord, have you looked over the documents I put on your desk last night?"
A deferential voice sounded out within a nicely wooden-modeled room as it echoed with a touch of snarkiness to it.
"Ju Dong… You know I didn't…"
A man of great stature with a scarred face put on a wry smile as he leaned his hand against his forehead, expecting the berating to come.
And just as he expected…
"My Lord! The Elven King has been waiting in the Floating City of Akron for the last two weeks! You know that there is no way of avoiding his marriage proposal for his son and your daughter, don't you!?"
Ju Dong hurried over to the ruler of the world like a lecturer reprimanding his student. He allowed the tired ruler not a single ounce of respite!
"Ju Dong… My daughter… She's too young to be thinking about marriage. Just tell that old coot to go back to his tree and leave me and my dear Ming Chao alone…" Harkath leaned into the back of his chair, not even bothering to look at his advisor.
"My Lord! That just isn't possible! The Elven King is responsible for the sole distribution of world seeds! We need a solid alliance with him if we want to move forward with the colonization of the New Continent!" Ju Dong continued to lecture his ruler with an exasperated tone, clearly used to the shenanigans of his lord.
"Ju Dong… My daughter, she's too young to be thinking about marriage…-"
"She's more than 300 thousand years old! How is that too young!?" Ju Dong interrupted his master with a blaring voice, tired of all this nonsense.
