Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

Every single Neo-Demon showed immense respect toward these nine people since, after the Ancestor and the Supreme, they were the highest potencies of the race.

¡The Sky Breakers!

The tale about how they got that title already spread all over the Neo-Demon Race. 

Every Neo-Demon considered Ezequiel Invictus as absolute existence, a being only the Ancestor could match. 

There was no need to mention nine against one. Even if the numerical difference was two or three times higher, none of the Law Engraving Neo-Demons thought they could match him. 

The fact the nine were able to defeat him was the reason behind the immense admiration in the Neo-Demons' eyes. Nevertheless, other than admiration, the eyes of many also burned with fighting intent.

They did not try to hide it. On the contrary, these Neo-Demons show their desire to challenge the Sky Breakers with pride!

While Neo-Demons was a utopian race where all forms of betrayal and backstabbing were absent, Zatiel fomented challenges. As long as they do it with respect and in the open, relying only on their own power, they could even challenge the Supreme for his title.

However, none of the Neo-Demon even thought of challenging Ezequiel Invictus since no one in the same Rank could defeat him in a one-on-one battle.

The Sky Breakers, on the other hand, while all of them were extremely powerful, unlike the Supreme, were not virtually invincible. 

Sophia and the rest of the Sky Breakers felt the battle intent in their brethren. Their response was simple, a smile full of self-confidence and eyes burning with the will to face anyone.

Seeing their people's willpower burning with such might made the Sky Breakers happy. Besides, they were also like them, and they focused their fighting intent on the man in the lead.

Leading the Sky Breakers was a man clad in full templar armor. His body unleashed an aura so sharp and full of killing intent that instead of a man, he resembled a demonic sword.

There was a tattoo over his right glove with the form of a number. The other Sky Breakers also have this type of tattoo, some in their armors and others in their skin. 

The one in the man's glove was a "1."

Over the last decade, the Sky Breakers have gathered many times, challenging each other to prove who was the strongest. While many of the positions changed constantly, the N°1 never left the hands of the Fastest Neo-Demon, Heinz.

After the battle that earned them their titles, the nine Neo-Demons' momentum obtained a monstrous increase. Not only did their True Wills advance at gigantic steps, but their bloodline also grew stronger!

Although Dante was still at the lead, being the only one with a Law Bloodline, Heinz and the others all managed to push their Limit Emperor Bloodlines to the Half Law level!

They achieved this fantastic feat by exploring some of the most dangerous and treacherous regions of Baator and Abyss, places where even Peak Rank 6 life forms could perish.

Before their battle with Ezequiel, the Neo-Demons would have prioritized their lives and would not face those unnecessary risks, but right now, their sole goal was to continue rising and never let their destinies decline. 

Sophia's bloodline remained at the Half Law level, but the bloodline force of the women was much more potent than the others. She already underwent her first Nirvanic Rebirth.

Following Zatiel's instructions, she performed that feat on the surface of a Low World's sun.

Zatiel also gave her resources even Peak Rank 6 life forms would find precious to assist her during the Nirvanic Rebirth. 

She felt that her next Nirvanic Rebirth would allow her bloodline to jump straight into the Law level and enable her to fully unlock the Nirvana Ice-Fire Dragon Phoenix's bloodline power.

Heinz waved his hand, allowing the Neo-Demons to stand up and retake their military formation. The Cultivator then glanced at the sky, not bothering to even look at the average Rank 6 life forms and focusing immediately on the Gods Slayers.

When the Rank 6 Magi saw how they did not even enter the Cultivator's sight, many of them were enraged. However, before they could say a word, Heinz vanished and instantly appeared in front of the Gods Slayers.

That speed shocked the Hollow Sun Domain Stage Magi. Before they could even process his movements, the Cultivator already traveled a distance that would have allowed him to reach their side and attack.

These Magi were not battle-ready, and if they had used the full power of their consciousness, they might have kept up with Heinz's speed.

However, that was just Heinz's basic speed. If he used his power-ups, those Hollow Sun Domain Stage Magi would have a hard time reacting to his movement, no matter what they do.

Only those at the Primary Sun Domain Stage and above could perceive the Cultivator's movements accurately, and what they saw surprised many.

The Cultivator's body transformed into subatomic particles that allowed him to move faster than the speed of light!

Heinz felt immense spiritual pressure as the Gods Slayers focused on him due to the tremendous power of their souls.

Although thanks to the purity of his bloodline, the Cultivator advanced very fast through the stages of Rank 5, already reaching the Viscera Engraving Stage, his True Soul was still weak compared with these people.

Despite that, the Cultivator faced them head-on, as silver and dark red light appeared around him. 

He still hadn't reached the Moon Shatterer Rank but was very close to it. As for the dark red light, that came from something else, something unique of the Cultivator.

After a moment and seeing that the Gods Slayers restrained their spiritual pressure, Heinz took out his helmet and bowed slightly.

"Heinz Ensis, N°1 Sky Breaker, greets you all."

Some of the Gods Slayers showed surprise. What drew their attention was that now that they saw his eyes clearly, it appeared that the Cultivator was blind.

Blindness and other mortal illnesses were not something that could affect supernatural life forms like them. Even a Rank 1 life form could heal that condition, so they were confused by the Cultivator's state.

There were two that acted differently than the rest. Roku and Dean adopted serious expressions when they felt the unique force in those eyes.

Although they were intrigued, neither thought it would be the time or place to ask questions about them.

"Will the Daybreak Clan's forces join the Aeternum Empire's Army?" Roku spoke with a calm and yet powerful voice as he stared at Heinz. 

Technically, the Daybreak Clan was part of the Aeternum Empire, and they would have to obey the orders of the Emperor. Still, everybody knew that the ruler-subordinate relationship between the two was merely in name and that Zatiel Daybreak obeyed no one's commands. 

Heinz stared at Roku for a moment before slowly shaking his head. That made the Astral Fiend's eyes narrow.

"Then, who would you join?" As soon as the Astral Fiend made the question, two individuals spoke.

"The Daybreak Clan could join the Eye Dynasty's Army."

"Lord Daybreak's forces are more than welcome in the Scientia Kingdom's encampment."

Dean Rebellion and the beautiful Eye Holder's Gods Slayer spoke simultaneously, and they looked at each other before turning back toward Heinz.

"We will use formations that require the utilization of bloodline force, so siding with us would be a great chance to complement our powers."

"There are new Runic Formations we have been developing for this war. We could use warriors with a vast military experience like your people."

Heinz raised his hand to stop them from continuing speaking and once again shook his head.

"Although we will collaborate with all of your organizations, sharing information and forming temporary alliances, under Brother's command, we, the Daybreak Clan, will act on our own."

The Gods Slayers looked at each other when they heard the Daybreak Clan's plan. While their number was beyond impressive for an organization with less than two hundred years of age, they were far from enough to conquer territories and fight great battles.

Nevertheless, none of them attempted to change Heinz's minds since they knew it would be futile. There was no way the Daybreak Clan would go against Zatiel Daybreak's orders.

"When will Lord Daybreak enter Gods' Tomb?" It was Gabriel, the one who spoke, but that question was in everybody's mind.

"Brother and the Supreme are in an essential phase of their cultivation. I don't know when they will finish, but we should not count on them for the ensuing battles."

Heinz's words made the Gods Slayers sigh. They hoped to rely on Zatiel's wits and experience, but it seemed they would not be so lucky. 

"We will march right now and strike the Divinity Faith Army with our full force. Anyone who knowingly harms the army of another organization in any way during this first battle will have to answer to me!" 

Roku's voice echoed through the continent, and his demonic and fierce aura made clear that he would not allow any form of schemes and plots during such an important fight.

There was bad blood between many organizations, and some would like to make the other suffer, but the Astral Fiend's wrath was not something they were willing to face.

The army was ready to march when a handsome young man with black hair and grey bloodline eyes took a step forward and spoke to Roku.

"Lord Roku, if you allow me a moment."

The Astral Fiend stared at Gwyn, and there was a positive light in his eyes. 

Once he saw the Astral Fiend nodding, Gwyn turned toward Heinz.

"By what I understand, after Lord Daybreak and Invictus, you are the strongest member of the Daybreak Clan."

Heinz turned toward Gwyn and nodded.

"Great. How about if we test who of the two is the strongest!?"

"
