Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

When the Gods Slayers heard Gwyn's words, they all displayed expressions of interest and curiosity. Even the Scientia Kingdom's brothers and the Astral Fiend were not an exception. 

Zatiel Daybreak's teaching skills had already reached a mythical level in the minds of the Magi World's people. Even the highest powerhouses were beyond marveled by the talent of those who followed him.

The most outstanding example was Ezequiel Invictus, the man many referred to as a singularity. An existence whose birth and rise came by as the result of events whose replication was virtually impossible.

None of the great organizations would try to challenge Ezequiel Invictus as that would only bring mockery. Many of them wondered whether the Supreme Neo-Demon was a unique life form created by Zatiel Daybreak in his past life to act as his second in command.

You could not really blame them for that type of mentality as Ezequiel Invictus' talent was just too high for a being whose past was that of a mere mortal.

Heinz, on the other hand, was someone whose background they knew very well. While the Cultivator had always been talented, he was very far away from Gwyn Xinter's level, the greatest genius of the Eye Dynasty.

The Gods Slayers were very well informed and knew how much Eve favored this young genius to the point of taking time to guide his cultivation personally. 

Inside the Eye Dynasty, Gwyn Xinter's status was unique as the N°1 Holy Son.

This battle was a perfect chance to see how the teaching abilities of Zatiel Daybreak compared with one of the three most influential individuals of the Magi World.

When he heard Gwyn's challenge, a small smile formed on Heinz's face, and without any warning, a sharp and fierce battle intent emerged from him.

"Gwyn Xinter, someone even Brother considers an outstanding genius. I would also like to know the power of an individual whose destiny was touched by Ivar the Flawless and Eve the Holy Mother."

Both Gwyn and Heinz turned toward Roku, and once they saw this one nod, they flashed up, reaching a point in the sky where the shock waves of their fight would not endanger the Rank 4 life forms.

Everybody focused on the next battle, from the Soul Forging existences in the ground to the Gods Slayers in the sky. The two groups that showed the most interest were the Eye Dynasty Army and the Neo-Demons, as the strongest warriors from their sides were about to prove who was better. 

The Eye Holder's chest began to glow with silver-blue light as his muscle grew more prominent and his physical might skyrocketed. He took a large halberd from his space ring, and when his bloodline eyes glowed, grey flames covered the weapon, giving it a phantasmagorical appearance. 

Heinz's body also began to change. Golden flaming light covered his skin, and rays of sunshine began to converge on him.

The Neo-Demon then took his dark red sword off its sheath, and at that exact moment, he vanished.

Gwyn's eyes widened as he felt the Cultivator appearing behind him and how the dark red sword approached the back of his neck.

Heinz's speed was impressive, but despite that, before the sword could land, a flaming halberd got in its path, stopping it.

Now, it was Heinz's time to be shocked. Not only did the Eye Holder manage to stop his attack, but the halberd carried such a monstrous strength that it almost sent his sword flying away.

And if that wasn't enough, the moment the grey flame touched the sword, Heinz felt a force trying to numb his mind. Luckily, as a Neo-Demon and Cultivator, his spiritual defenses were strong enough to withstand that soul invasion force. 

'My Mind Slayer Flame doesn't work!'

Gwyn was surprised by Heinz's robust spiritual defenses. That surprise transformed into shock when he saw how the Cultivator managed to redirect part of the strength in his halberd away, slightly moving back instead of being fired away as he hoped. 

Heinz felt his arms trembling due to the clash between his sword and the halberd, but there was no change in his expression, and once again vanished from Gwyn's line of sight, only to appear instantly on the Eye Holder's left and attack the knee.

The sword strike was superb, a combination of absolute speed and extraordinary martial skill, and yet, Gwyn was still able to block it in the last instant.

All those movements took a long time to explain, but the truth was that in every second, the duo's sword and halberd clashed more than fifty times.

Those Law Engraving Magi could only see Gwyn moving his halberd at a speed that their minds had difficulty processing. As for Heinz, they could not keep up with his movements, making them perceive the Cultivator as nothing more than a flash of golden light.

Neither Gwyn nor Heinz used their Law Avatars or activated the Eldritch Ghost Underworld and True Doomsday Body powers, and they only relied on their innate skills and martial abilities.

Despite that, both the Sky Breaker and Holy Son displayed battle power that allowed them to kill Hollow Sun Domain Stage existences without a problem!

The Eye Holder and Neo-Demon continue battling for five minutes, none of them moving more than ten meters from their original position. Giant cracks in space formed around them, as the shock waves they generated were so strong that they could even harm weak Rank 5 life forms.

Suddenly, the collision stopped, and both Heinz and Gwyn separated, leaving a considerable distance between the two.

They stared at each other before both roaring with all their strength, making their energies explode, fusing with their Law Avatars, and activating the unique abilities of their bodies.

"¡AHHHH!"

"¡AHHHH!"

Light bone armor covered Heinz's legs and arms. They had tube systems that allowed the Neo-Demon to discharge massive amounts of energy, enhancing his momentum and dexterity.

Heinz's Law Avatar fused with his armor and weapon, enhancing every aspect of his existence and allowing his body and sword to become one.

Once the Cultivator and the dark red sword became a single entity, a wave of flaming soul force emerged from the weapon!

The flaming soul force drew the attention of the Gods Slayers, as they felt the immensely destructive, chaotic, and raging power in it. That fire not only would destroy the body, it could also travel directly to the enemy's soul and incinerate it.

Gywn's transformation did not fall behind at all. His chest began to glow with even more force, and the image of a pyramid appeared in it, as an armor made of bark began to grow over his skin.

In an instant, the Eye Holder transformed into a frightful fiend, and like all entities from the Eldritch Universe, every fiber of his body carried a monstrous physical power.

The only part visible of Gwyn were his eyes, and when these began to glow, giant phantom branches with bloody thorns and leaves that seemed to hold tormented souls manifested around him.

Just like the flaming soul force, Soul Eldritch Tree's phantom surprised the Gods Slayers. With his bloodline, Gwyn was able to invoke the savage life form to assist him in battle.

Those branches would have no problem ripping weak Rank 6 life forms apart and devouring their souls. 

Both Heinz and Gwyn reached a point where they could fight Early Primary Sun Domain Stage existences and come out victorious!

The instant the Sky Breaker and the Holy Son fully unleashed their powers, the two flashed forward, carrying a momentum that shattered space.

Heinz displayed a speed and dexterity that defied logic as he pierced past the monstrous branches that sought to devour him and reached his opponent.

A burst of energy blasted out of the tubes on his bone armor, making his entire body rotate, transforming him into a dark red flaming tornado whose momentum increased each instant.

Just as they were about to collide with each other, Gwyn's eyes glowed again, and the Soul Eldritch Tree's phantom exploded, generating a grey force field that expanded for thousands of kilometers.

Heinz, who was in the center of it, faced its full power. The Neo-Demon's consciousness stopped relaying information from his surroundings, and every one of his senses shut down.

Gwyn smiled as he was sure that victory was his, but what happened next shocked him. 

Despite not being able to feel the sword in his hand, see his opponent, or hear anything, Heinz still managed to locate the Holy Son's position and attack!

"¡BOOM!"

The dark red flaming sword and the halberd clashed, generating an explosion that could shatter stars.

Blood leaked from Gwyn and Heinz's mouths as they suffered internal damage during the collision. 

"AHHHH!" The Holy Son roared as his bloodline force burst, increasing his strength, allowing him to overpower the Cultivator.

Gwyn sent Heinz's body flying away like a cannonball, making this one crash against a mountain range, burying him very deep inside.

"¡Yes!"

"The Holy Son did it!"

"What did I tell you? We Eye Holders are the best!"

Less than a second after Heinz's crash, the entire Eye Holder Army began to cheer as their great genius surpassed that of the Daybreak Clan. Some of them even displayed cocky smiles as they stared at the Neo-Demons.

Gwyn did not have time to care about the reaction of his brethren, as right now, he was having a hard time regulating his breathing. He poured every ounce of power he had in that last strike.

All the Rank 6 life forms thought the battle was over, but then, it happened. 

A torrent of dark red flaming soul force fired up from the location where Heinz clashed, like a volcano, blasting the entire mountain range.

Gwyn and even the Gods Slayer were shocked by the dark red flaming aura, as this one kept growing stronger, reaching the point where it could threaten Supernova Domain existences!
