Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

Chapter 675: Solaris Massacre Anniversary

The old man immediately went on high alert as he felt that horrible killing intent that almost suffocated him, putting himself in front of the young man. They began to glow with an azure force that protected their bodies and seemed capable of teleporting them out of here at any second.

At first, the duo thought that the origin of the killing intent was Ivar, but as they focused on the raging oceans, they noticed another life form inside it.

It was not a humanoid but a weapon with a soul and ego, the weapon whose fame was bound to the Flawless and possibly the strongest artifact in the entire Prima Universe, Ars Goetia.

Like Ivar, Ars Goetia used the raging ocean to temper itself, but it had another job: to keep an eye on the surroundings. When it detected the duo, it only unleashed that killing intent to keep them at bay, but after the azure force appeared, the living weapon felt threatened and decided to kill them. 

Ars Goetia may be an Initial Rank 9 life form, but its mind and wisdom had yet to develop fully. In its mind, if there was something that could harm its creator, it needed to destroy that.

The duo felt an even more powerful killing intent targeting them, and things grew even worse as it also sealed space-time. Although the azure force was strong, they did not know if it would still manage to bring them away.

Just as Ars Goetia was about to flash toward the duo, Ivar opened his eyes and seized the spear.

The Rank 9 Magus calmed Ars Goetia before focusing on the duo. His eyes narrowed before flashing toward them.

Ivar’s speed and momentum generated waves of Astral Chaos to spread in every direction, almost pushing them away. 

“The Supernova Race, huh. What brings the two of you here?”

While the duo did not appreciate the nonchalant way the Magus spoke about their race, there was nothing they could say as his power gave him that right.

The duo did not answer right away as they were under tremendous pressure. Ivar did not bother to contain his aura, and while Ars Goetia no longer released its killing intent, they knew the Rank 9 living weapon observed them.

The young man took a deep breath before touching the shoulder of the old man and making him move away. 

“I am Epoch Zero, son of Eon One and Ruin One, grandson of the Infinite Space-Time Supernova Eye and Eternal Death and Destruction Supernova Eye. I came here in the name of the Supernova Race to speak with you, Ivar the Flawless.”

Epoch clasped his hands but did not bow. He represented the Supernova Race, and in his mind, there was no way his race would ever lower their heads to a single individual. 

The old man showed a great smile as he saw the willpower of Epoch Zero and nodded before performing a small bow toward Ivar.

“Ruin Second greets the Gods Path of Power’s End.” He was speaking for himself, so it would only be right to show deference toward someone stronger and with a higher status. 

Ivar only glanced at the old man and nodded before turning back toward the Epoch Zero. He had changed a lot over the past few hundred years after fulfilling his vengeance, but as he saw the young man’s eyes, he recalled some memories.

“Ahh, how similar we used to be.”

Epoch Zero and Ruin Second looked at each other, but they failed to understand Ivar’s words.

The young Supernova genius was undoubtedly impressive, but his disposition could not compare with Ivar’s. In the eyes of the duo, the Flawless resembled a universal transcendental force capable of erasing entire races of existence.

After killing Tyr, Satan, and having triggered a force that ended the Gods’ Path of Power, Ivar felt he finally broke the chains that had bound him for such a long time. The pain was still there, and the Magus accepted that it would never disappear since he would forever remember those he lost, but he was calmer now.

Nevertheless, Ivar still remembered those eyes full of resolution that he saw whenever he looked in a mirror. Eyes whose light would never burn out until they saw all those that wronged him perish.

Those were the same eyes Ivar saw in the young Supernova Genius.

“Ivar the Flawless greets the Supernova Race.” The Magus clasped his hand, showing respect before retracting his aura.

Epoch Zero and Ruin Second smiled as they saw that since it meant their conversation would go smoother.

“Now that the formalities are gone, I ask you again. What brought you here?” Ivar’s tone was not cold, but he did not like to be interrupted during his cultivation, so he was not in a great mood either.

The two Supernovas adopted a severe expression as Epoch Zero took out a red scroll that glowed with a powerful bloodline force.

“We come to invite you, Ivar the Flawless, to be a guest of honor on the Solaris Massacre Anniversary.”

Ivar’s eyes narrowed as he saw the scroll and felt the bloodline force coming from three different Rank 9 life forms.

“So you guys are ready to shred all pretenses and start a war.” Ivar was perfectly aware of the hatred between the Supernova Race and the Heavenly Race.

The Infinite Space-Time Supernova Eye and Eternal Death and Destruction Supernova Eye, along with Solaris, were enough for the Supernova Race to resist the might of the Heavenly Race but were not enough to start an offensive, so something must have changed.

It was evident that the change was the owner of that third Rank 9 bloodline force.

“So I can assume that Apex has already evolved into Rank 9.” 

Epoch Zero and Ruin Second were shocked by those words and even more by the fighting spirit burning in Ivar’s eyes.

Although Ivar no longer had that raging hatred feeding him, his desire to grow more powerful was as strong as ever since he had to protect his second father, who watched after him from the moment he reached the Magi World.

And if there were one man that Ivar had considered his rival, that would be the one that he fell behind when he took the trial of the World Tree.

The same man who achieved 86% completion and earned second place in the Universe Champion Ranking, Heavenly Slayer.
