The spies that are flying as fast as they can toward that area suddenly halted in their rush.
They were shocked because this aura coming out form this roar is the aura of a Diamond Dispersal expert.
How could suddenly such an expert appears in this remote region? And they were also shocked because the closer they come; the aura instead of being weakened is getting stronger.
And then they felt it. Deep in their heart. A desire to bow. This is an innate desire, an innate instinct.
Even Celestial with all of their powers could not have such a profound pressure to force their race to bow and kneel.
This is only if they met a powerful person of their own race.
While the Infernal Realm has the nine level and four stages, their races bloodline also have levels.
This is their race bloodline of Kings.
It would only appear on someone who cultivated the pure infernal energy.
This is not a Celestial breakthrough but one of the people of their race is breaking through. For their race, they are rarely Diamond Dispersal experts.
They would either be in hiding or be dead because the Celestial would never let such threat to live for long.
Other than some expert of their race that is waiting to ploy a rebellion, there is never such an open breaking through like this.
This was like challenging the superiority of the Celestials and the Heavens of the Infernal Realm
The Spies that is flying to come to the Merapi tribe halted and instead of advancing forward they retreated.
They need to ask for reinforcement from the Palaces.
And the Celestials that govern this Province also need to be notified. But even as the spies retreated back, some of the people of Azul race that was hiding opens their eyes.
They smirk and they smiles.
"Another one"
One of them spoke in the darkness; the fluctuation of energy coming out of him is the Divine Soul Formation
With his power he could create a kingdom for his race. But he hides here in some remote corners of the Infernal Realm world.
"Go, my children. Offer him protection. Bring him here…to me and let us show him the truth of our world" the moment he said this, nine people all with the cultivation base of Soul Formation flies out.
Meanwhile on the Merapi tribe forest area, the battle is not yet concluded.
Crystal Forming, Infernal Crystallization, Crystal Refining, Diamond Forming, Infernal Absorber, Diamond Dispersal
Out of the nine levels Azief has reached the sixth level. Azief also realize something as he is breaking through
That this saber is particularly overpowered in the Infernal Realm.
Azief also try to do this in his world, purifying the energy and absorb it but it did not make any difference for him whatsoever.
Could it be that the energy that would make the highest improvement for the purifying of energy is the Infernal Energy, or the Asura energy?
Azief is even thinking of this even in his battle. On the other hand, that large Asura is sweating buckets. Both, because he was hot and because he was afraid.
By now, that large Asura could only think of running away.
Before, Azul was still the same level as him which is why he was not afraid even though people kept telling him that he is a prodigy.
In the end, their race would rather fight than back down than just believe what other people say.
And it would not make sense for him to be afraid of someone who is the same level of him until Azul proved otherwise.
But when there is a disparity in level like this it is stupidity to try to resist any longer.
Azief quickly disperse the crystals in his body into his consciousness as his cultivation base of Diamond Dispersal increases to High stage.
Then with the power of his cultivation base bolstered and increase, he grip his saber tightly, the energy coming out of that saber is indescribable.
Then he brought down his saber down with all of his power, as the wind around him exploded and devour by the fire of the saber.
And with it the screech of something breaking the Heavenly Laws could be heard all over the region and even reaches the Heavens.
That display startles the Celestial in their Golden Palaces over the Heavens of the Infernal Realm.
This is a force that could bring down the starry skies, unmatched and peerless through the ages.
His hair is fluttering like strands of fire, his dirty sleeves billowing like flames as he unleashed his mighty attack.
The strike shatters all the sound nearby and supersonic boom rings through the entire region as ripples of shockwaves spread out from that forest.
"Heaven Sundering!" he shouted and his voice sounded like a declaration, to both the Celestials and the Heavens of the Infernal Realm. It was like he declares he would sunder that Heavens and brought it down.
A new enlightenment of the saber enter Azief mind.
He finally understands the crux of this saber slash.
Sundering the Heavens.
Next time, if he uses this saber he could truly bring down the Heavens, to cut apart the cage of Heavens towards mortals and all living beings.
Instead of a gigantic slash of fire, Azief now has understood the crux of the Heaven Sundering Saber so when he shot out that slash; it was a small slice that slices that large Asura into nihility.
It was a small slice but contained in that slice is the understanding of how to sunder Heavens.
But the most amazing thing was that when the deed is done, the large Asura dead and dissipated into nothingness, the forest recovered, the sand turns back into land, and the green gra.s.s appears back and Azief is back in front of his hut.
It was like that battle before never happened. This is the Heaven Sundering Saber true slash. It enables one to mess up the Heavens by sundering their Laws of Causality and Effects.
What is the cause? What is the Effect? Which one is the cause? Which one is the Effect?
Distort all of this, and Karma is extinguished.
When Heavens Laws is ineffective, then Heaven is sundered. When Heaven Laws is ineffective, the Heavens is meaningless.
If Azief progressed higher in this attack, he could even erase a person existence from every person mind, making his enemies seems to never exist, to mess up Karma and the cycle of Life and death and the wheel of reincarnation.
But for now, he could, only reverse the effect of his attack, or to be more accurate reversing time.
Azief panted in front of his hut and then smiles bitterly. While he has broken through to the next level, and improve in his power and prowess, the threat on him did not lessen. He knows this more than most.
Because the Celestial in their Golden Palaces on top of the Heavens of the Infernal Realms has already take notice, and new spies is coming.
Azief knows he could not stay long in this area. He needs to survive long enough until he became the Divinity of Fire and gain the energy required for him to form his Disk.
He looks at the surrounding of his hut and the people following the big Asura have already fled far away. He quickly went inside in a rush and saw that the young woman is still sleeping.
Azief only look at the woman. This time he truly looked. How could this girl even after all of that battle remains sleeping? So, this time he truly looked.
And then he sighed.
He then said bitterly
"Azul you were mistaken. You were truly mistaken." he said it to himself but also to Azul that oversee this world.
While this world is an illusionary world, Azief knows this world is replicated exactly the same and the Laws in here is perfect and in balance especially the Laws of Time and Reality here.
While Azief did not yet reached Divine Comprehension in his world and grasp Laws, but he could sense it.
Which means Azul did not create this world just with his own memories. Far from it. The other thing Azief notices about this world is about its inhabitants.
They all have souls. Because of Azief Death Source Azief is especially sensitive toward soul. Even without using his Death Source and using only his own Divine Sense he could sense the soul inside each and every one living souls.
This is a complete world, and the weird Time aura around it suggests that this world was cut from the timeline.
For what reason Azief didn"t know.
Which means, Azief is stepping into the past, only he is travelling through time with Azul body and his guidance to navigate this world.
Maybe he is now truly at the Infernal Realms of The Asura territory. Azief thought to himself.
Azief come closer to the girl and caressed her cheek. Tears suddenly fall down from her eyes and Azief could feel his heart cracked.
"Azul, when you killed her back then she knew…and she accepted it anyway. Do you really not know or did you erase that from your memory?" Azief mused, talking to himself.
He then ask
"Meihul. Why did you not flee? When you were awake all this time?" The girl looks at Azief and smiles a sorrowful smile.
Each time Azief look at it, he felt someone p.r.i.c.ked a needle into his heart. Then she said.
"I am a cursed child. If my death would ensure your future, I would not mind dying for you. My parent cast me away when I was a child. You were the only one that still played with me. Getting betrothed to you was one of the happiest moments of my life. If I could give you my life and keep you safe, I wouldn"t mind" Azief look at Meihul eyes and she could see the love but she could also see guilt.
But most of all Azief could see she was sincerity. This girl has never felt love other than when she is with him.
She truly did not mind to die for him. But hearing this did not make Azief happy. It makes his heart hurt even more.
Azief then said gently to her, drawing close to her and hugging her.
"You are not cursed. You are not some broken child. You are my betrothed. I would never let go of your hand no matter what. I will make my name in the world, and you will be beside me until the end"
Meihul eyes glowed. Then she asked
"If you kill me you could have returned to the tribe. Do you not hate me?" Azief shook his head.
"Never"
Meihul smiles and the lingering will of Azul take over Azief body for a moment. Lingering will of Azul felt that was the most beautiful smile he has ever seen in his life.
It"s not his first time seeing a smile, but it is the first time he saw her smile. And then he cried, tears flowing down form his eyes before Azief then take over back the body.
Meihul hugged Azief tightly and then Azief grab her hand and said
"We need to move quickly. People will be searching for us later." Meihul nodded as she started packing.
Then as Azief is starting to pack, that chilly gust of wind appears again.
The wind stopped blowing, the water stopped flowing, and life all ceased to move. Time once again stopped.
Then a voice sounded once again, filling the entirety of the world. The voice this time is happy.
"You have solved one of my regrets. You have resolved one of my six regrets. You can come out from the saber for a while. When you are ready, you can come in again."
Finished saying this the voice fades out slowly.
Azief then heaved a sigh of relief. He looks at this world as the scenery slowly blurs out and dissipated into dust and he was floating on that limitless and boundless s.p.a.ce again.
"Until we meet again" Azief said smiling. Now that he is out of Azul body, his sense becomes sharper than before.
And he slowly felt something as wrong about that world. Azief don"t think that world look like as it was
There is a mysterious feeling about that world. The energy inside that world seem absurdly real. He shakes his head and said to himself
"I will think about it later. Anyway, it did not provide harm for me"
He then thinks to get out from this s.p.a.ce and then a pulling force appeared as it drag Azief out from this s.p.a.ce.
A few moments later, he opened his eyes. This time he is inside that cave on his world. He looked in front of him and saw only five sabers is floating.
One of the sabers is no longer glowing and no longer possesses any power, lying powerlessly on the ground.
Azief traces that saber and stores it inside his ring. Even though the Heaven Sundering Saber no longer possesses any power Azief could feel that the power of the saber is at his fingertips.
He takes a deep breath, as he wants to ascertain his thoughts.
He waves one of his fingers and a fire appeared on the tip of his nail. Azief eyes narrowed. And then a smile formed on his face, and his eyes is full of excitement
Because this is not normal fire on his finger. It is Nirvanic Fire. Around the flames, time, Destiny, Fate and Karma distorted and almost collapsed.
He checks his consciousness and energy in his body. To his surprise he could feel he is building up Infernal Energy in his consciousness.
He had about 20 percent of infernal energy in his body.
If he got a hundred percent of infernal energy he could form the Disk.
He might not be able to use that Disk before but now that he has the All Source Disk he could convert the worldly energy to infernal energy when he forms the Disk.
If he was in Infernal Realm he could easily form the disk because the source of that energy is there.
But instead he had to rely on this saber to absorb the infernal energy inside it and form his disk.
At least that is what he thought before.
But now he did not think like that anymore. Since, he understands many things now. He did not only absorb the infernal energy, he also absorbs the saber abilities into himself.
He now could use his finger to subst.i.tute for the Heaven Sundering Saber. It could be said his finger is the Heaven Sundering finger.
Maybe one day, he could sunder the heavens with only his finger.
Thinking about it almost makes him laugh.
Then he flies out of the caves and seeing the outside, it was night. He could still see the residence of the Immortal Couple.
He did not know the rate of time between that world and his world.
He needs to find out now. Seeing his Palace and the many houses built Azief knows that some time has pa.s.sed. But how long has pa.s.sed exactly?
It doesn"t seem to be a long time but he could not be sure. He shakes his head and said o himself
"Just have to hope it is not years." He sneakily enters his Palace through the secret path he built.
Then he enters his meditation room and then act like he was finis.h.i.+ng his meditation in the room and went out.
Outside of his door, there is a guard who is guarding diligently.
The guard is just a kid. When the door opens and the kid saw the person that is coming out of the room, the boy quickly kneels.
Azief look at the boy and he almost chuckles. The boy clearly feels afraid. Azief never saw this boy before. Maybe he is a new recruit.
"Who are you under?" Azief ask. The kneeling boy then said
"General w.a.n.g Jian" Azief thought for a moment and then said
"Summon him here." The kneeling boy nodded and get up and was about to go when Azief ask
"What is your name kid?" The boy was startled but he turned around quickly. His body is still trembling and sweat riddles his forehead.
"My name?" The kid was fl.u.s.tered. Not daring to look the Death Monarch in the eyes, the kid look down and said
"My name is Milos, Death Monarch" Azief just nodded and gesture for him to call w.a.n.g Jian. Azief then walk through the Hall.
It was night so not many people are in the Palace. All of his subordinate is probably at their own residence.
Or maybe their own palaces.
Azief never care too much about what his subordinate does or built for themselves.
Unless they do something that is beyond his bottom line, Azief could be considered an amiable ruler.
w.a.n.g Jian was sleeping soundly at his castle with Somi beside him. He was awoken at night when a messenger informs him that the Death Monarch is summoning him to the Palace.
He immediately got up from his bed and wears his clothes and donned his armor. Then he flies out from his castle almost immediately.
Some of the people camping outside the General w.a.n.g Jian residence saw that he flies out from his castle with urgency.
They immediately reported this to their superiors.
The fact that the Death Monarch has come out from his room was immediately found out by the other amba.s.sadors of the factions all over the world that has been waiting since the Death Monarch close himself off in seclusion.
When these people got the news, not caring about anything else, they immediately got up from their sleep and rush to the Palace to meet the Death Monarch to discuss matters.
w.a.n.g Jian arrived in front of the Palace and landed before the gate of the Palace. No one is allowed to fly around the Palace area.
There is that rule and there is also the fact that there is barrier and magical array and formation that prevented someone from flying over to the Palace other than the Death Monarch himself
w.a.n.g Jian landed and immediately announces his presence and rush into the Throne Room.
When he enters the throne room he saw the Death Monarch, sitting on his throne of bones and skull, majestically and full of power.
Black aura shrouded the throne and G.o.dly aura pours out from the Death Monarch body
w.a.n.g Jian immediately kneels and exclaimed
"General w.a.n.g Jian heeds the summons!" Azief nodded. Then not wanting to talk for too long he ask

"w.a.n.g Jian, how long was I in the room?"
w.a.n.g Jian then immediately answer
"Three months, my lord"
"Three months. Mm. "Azief closes his eyes and began thinking to himself. It is not that long or that short.
It is just right.
"I only spent a few hours in that world but it already takes three month. Hmm." He thought to himself.
While Azief was thinking of this in his throne room, outside the Palace gate, the amba.s.sador of other faction have already arrived at the front gate, all excited to meet the Death Monarch.
Azief saw this with his divine sense so he asked w.a.n.g Jian
"Did anything happen when I was in seclusion?"
"Amba.s.sador of many factions has come to speak with my lord."
Azief just snorted and nodded. He knew what they are coming here to talk about. And he has no interest of speaking with them.
He already has his own plans. He does not need to hear their opinion.
Just before Azief wanted to order w.a.n.g Jian to ask those amba.s.sadors to return w.a.n.g Jian said
"The World Government and the Republic amba.s.sador also came to discuss a matter about humanity threat"
"Hmm" Azief eyebrows creased. Humanity threat? What could possibly be considered as such?
"What do you mean? Explain"
w.a.n.g Jian then sighed as he began explaining.
"A few days after my lord seclude yourself, the World Government grand Commander Raymond and the Chancellor of the Right of Republic Jean come together to Pandemonium to meet with my lord. But since my lord is in seclusion, I could not allow them to meet my lord ,fearing they might have other intention and wanted to bother my lord forming the Disk."
Azief nodded. He understands and even applauds w.a.n.g Jian action.
After all he did left strict orders not allowing anyone to bother him when he was forming his Disk.
"Then?" Azief ask. He did not think that those people would give up so easily.
"Then they showed me a picture and a video. And what I see shakes me to my core. I was in dilemma because if the matter is true, then maybe I really should have barged in and meet my lord. But I decide against it"
"A picture? A video? Of what?" Azief ask, this time his curiosity is piqued.
w.a.n.g Jian then brought out a pouch. He approached the throne and then handed the pouch to Azief.
And then he slowly steps back. Azief open the pouch. He saw a picture and a Visual Stone. He looks at the picture first.
When he looks at the picture, his eyes grow complicated.
"Is this…verified?" Azief ask. w.a.n.g Jian nodded
Then Azief touch the Visual Stone and the video enter his mind as he saw what the video is all about.
Finished watching it, he shakes his head.
"What is the course of action of the two factions?" Azief ask. w.a.n.g Jian then reply.
"They have their countermeasures but they hope my lord could join them and help them."
Azief did not answer. He takes a deep breath, thinking about this matter. He throws back the pouch to w.a.n.g Jian and then he asks.
"You sure this is not some trap they devise to harm me?" w.a.n.g Jian shakes his head and said
"We are not sure."
"How about Athena and Freya? What did they say?"
"They said they will wait until my lord come out from the seclusion before deciding either to join them or not. They are not entirely confident that this is not just a ruse to trap my lord."
Azief nodded and then asked.
"How did they take this picture?" Azief ask, this time his mind could not help but think of what he has seen in the picture
A fleet of alien armada heading to Earth.
If this is true, and the World Government and the Republic is not plotting something, then the world might be experiencing another invasion
"Their satellite." w.a.n.g Jian answers
Azief then frown.
"Did you not ask them access to these satellites and verify their claim?"
w.a.n.g Jian then reply
"They would not let us to do it unless you were the one to access it. They desire to speak with you and they are still waiting in the Emba.s.sy"
"Emba.s.sy? Did we build an emba.s.sy?" This time Azief was shocked. They even built an emba.s.sy? He guessed Pandemonium might have many people now.
Of course if he truly saw his city he would surely see his city is lot larger than before and cities p.o.o.ping up every day in many corners of the continent.
But of course they are some forbidden zone and some dungeons left alone.
w.a.n.g Jian nodded.
Azief then sighed. Then he said
"Then summon all of them tomorrow to the Palace. Tonight, I have some matters to attend to"
w.a.n.g Jian nodded and went out of the palace.
When he reached the Palace Gate, he said to the people waiting to enter the palace for an audience, that tomorrow the Death Monarch will hear them so wait until morning,.
That night, the city went alive as spies were activated, and deals were made in taverns, pubs and secret rooms.
The Death Monarch has come out from his seclusion and the meeting for the distribution of the world region will happen in 9 months.
It is not long. But they did not know that there is a threat to the world right now. Only a few people know about this threat right now.
Azief on the other hand was not returning to sleep. When w.a.n.g Jian went out, Azief launches himself to the sky and went to s.p.a.ce.
With his speed, he arrives at s.p.a.ce in an hour. He then launches himself even more forward as he arrived at that satellite.
It is easy to spot the satellites. When the fall came, all the s.p.a.ce trash in s.p.a.ce evaporated and all satellite capabilities went down.
So right now on s.p.a.ce there is only two satellites built after the Fall.
One belonging to the World Government and the other belonging to the Republic. The Republic satellite is around the moon while the World Government satellite is around Mars.
Azief arrived at that satellite and he nodded.
Then he went back down to Earth and return to his Palace.
"Tomorrow would be a hectic day" he said to himself as he closes his eyes
