Chapter 435 - Inner Law Dimension (II)
The True Soul's roared as the massive consciousness carrying the energy pool blasted out of him and fell to the bottom of the soul dimension.
Zatiel could sense everything happening inside the soul dimension. He saw his consciousness falling like the great flood in mythologies, forming an ocean.
Its size equaled a tenth of a continent. The waters were grey, not due to lack of purity, but due to the Elemental Chaos forming the energy pool.
This water body was Zatiel's Spiritual Endless Ocean. It contained the Neo-Demon's memories and emotions.
The True Soul still contained the core of Zatiel's consciousness, but it would no longer limit its growth.
The stronger his laws became, the broader and firmer this dimension would become, allowing the consciousness and energy pool to increase. It translated into an increase in Zatiel's Elemental Chaos, cognitive abilities, spiritual defenses, and speed of thoughts.
After completing the Spiritual Endless Ocean, the True Soul looked to the sky and flew as high as he could get before roaring once again.
The blue humanoid released the full might of his soul force and soul aura, forming the dimension's sky.
The sky was the Soul Celestial Vault, an extension of the True Soul's self. The next second, two massive stars and a small sun appeared in the firmament, filling it with raging energies carrying the power of life and death.
Zatiel's Soul Origin formed the dimension's sun, and the Life Essence and Death Essence transformed into stars. In the future, if the Neo-Demon's law compression reached a high enough level, this dimension could birth life, and the power of the heavenly bodies would nurture them.
Zatiel's True Soul was the sky, watching over the entire dimension, and his consciousness was the ocean from where all life would rise. In this place, he was omnipotent and omnipresent. Nothing could hide from him, and everything obeyed his will.
The Neo-Demon's soul dimension finally transformed into an Inner Law Dimension, the first step into creating his own universe!
The birth of the Spiritual Endless Ocean and Soul Celestial Vault would mean the end of the Inner Law Dimension's creation for most life forms, but the Neo-Demon Race is unique.
When the True Will saw a sky appear above him, disdain filled his eyes. He flew up, positioning himself even higher than the True Soul.
The golden humanoid took a deep breath before releasing a roar.
"ROAR!" Unlike the True Soul's roars, this one carried an intent anyone could understand.
The True Will was the manifestation of the Neo-Demon's ego and willpower. It would not allow anyone to be above him.
As he roared, golden lines filled the sky, forming a net covering the entire Soul Celestial Vault!
After proving his superiority, the golden humanoid adopted his iconic meditative position. He was now the Soul Celestial Overlord, absolute ruler of the Inner Law Dimension.
The True Doomsday Body saw the True Will reaching the highest sky, and he went in the opposite direction. He entered the Spiritual Endless Ocean and kept descending until he reached the seabed.
An immense physical and spiritual pressure assaulted the black humanoid, but this only made a smile appear on his face.
As he felt the changes on him, Zatiel could not help but laugh. The way his other Paths of Power interacted with the Inner Law Dimension made him ecstatic.
Knowing the theory behind something and actually feeling it happen inside you were two completely different things.
"A.I. Chip, scan me!" Zatiel gave the order for the chip to do a thorough scan of himself.
The chip abilities also grew along with the Neo-Demon's soul. It took a moment, but soon Zatiel heard the robotic voice, and a stream of information appeared in his mind.
"Bip... Host scan completed.
Race: Neo-Demon (Rebirth Eclipse Bloodline)
Paths of Power: Animus (Low Rank 5)/ True Soul (1st Engraving Stage)/ True Doomsday Body (Fourth Heaven)/ True Will (Late Star Breaker)
Strength: 8.5-->10.2

Speed: 10.1--> 12.7

Elemental Chaos: 6.2--> 8.2
Soul Origin: 6.1--> 7.9
Astral Origin: 6.9-->9.4

Laws: Law of Life (Low Minor Completion level)/ Law of Creation (Middle Initial Level)/ Law of Death (Low Minor Completion level)/ Law of Destruction (Late Initial level)/ Soul Law (Late Initial level)/ Law of Rebirth (Middle Initial level)."
Zatiel was highly pleased with his stats. His Soul Origin and Elemental Chaos were much higher than an average Rank 5 life form at the Flesh Engraving Stage.
The might of his body could equal Fiend Marquises with a Sacred Body of Laws, despite the Neo-Demon's battle style focusing on the soul.
As he felt the strength of his body, curiosity appeared in Zatiel's face, and he ordered the NRAI to teleport him to the Garden of Creation.
A weird expression appeared on the Neo-Demon's face when he saw Yami eating branches of the Sacred Sun Tree.
'That little girl is truly weird. Well, I am not exactly normal.'
Yami only ate small bites, and they did not harm the massive tree, so Zatiel let her be.
He also saw Tao letting the babies caress his belly, and he almost laughed when he noticed the funny face the dog made.
After that, his sight landed on the reason why he came to the Garden of Creation. The Neo-Demon saw Ezequiel sitting in the Soul Throne, but his eyes narrowed as he felt something odd.
The Rebirth Eye showed him how most of Ezequiel's consciousness was gone, leaving only a fraction studying the phenomena inside the Primordial Bloodline.
'If I am not wrong, he should have left to meet with Ivar and discuss Magic Creation.'
Zatiel did not waste time and used the A.I. Chip on Ezequiel.
Since almost his entire consciousness left his body, the chip quickly overcame Ezequiel's spiritual defenses. The Supreme Neo-Demon would only adopt this state inside the Neo-Demon Realm, where he was completely safe.
After a few seconds, the A.I. Chip showed the Supreme Neo-Demon's stats to Zatiel.
"Bip... Target scan successful.
Name : Ezequiel Invictus
Race: Neo-Demon (Primordial Bloodline)
Paths of Power: True Soul (1st Engraving Stage)/ True Doomsday Body (Fourth Heaven)/ True Will (Late Star Breaker)
Strength: 15.7
Physique: 14.4
Speed: 9.8
Elemental Chaos: 7.8
Soul Origin: 8.0

Note: Unknown Energy originates from a phenomenon inside the Supreme Neo-Demon's Bloodline Heart, just like Host's Rebirth Force originates from his flaming eclipse."
Zatiel was aware of the Primordial Bloodline's unique energy granted to Ezequiel, but he was still surprised by how high the A.I. Chip represented it.
'That unique energy aside, his Astral Origin is abnormally high. I guess it makes sense since his fourth Apocalyptic Star is a Tier 6 Star, one meant to be sealed at the end of Rank 5, not at the beginning.'
Having satiated his curiosity, Zatiel left the Garden of Creation and appeared in front of the Underworld Forge.
The Neo-Demon's Ancestor smiled at the Ancient Being of Laws before taking out his bone sword, a white pearl, and the Darkness Poison Duke's body.
"I need you to improve my sword and build a new weapon for me."
