Chapter 731: Middle Rank 8
There was a majestic dark golden orb in the deepest part of Avernus. That was its origin, which contained dozens of souls belonging to the Archdevils that had fused with it.
Each Archdevils’ True Soul occupied a determined zone, with those at Rank 7 in the periphery, the few at Rank 8 close to the core, and the one at Rank 9 right in the origin’s center.
Those True Souls were hibernating and would not wake up unless something extreme happened, like a new Devil trying to rise into Rank 7 or a challenge. Even then, that would only involve those at the periphery, and the Rank 8 Archdevils do not bother with it, much less the one at the origin’s center.
Zurtur’s True Soul had not woken up in millions of years, as there had not been an event that could affect him. However, all that changed today as a shadowy figure emerged from the soul!
Avernus’ origin began to tremble as it detected a foreign presence, waking all the Archdevils’ True Souls.
Absolute shock appeared on their faces as they saw the shadowy figure and did not understand how this could happen. It would be easier to destroy Avernus’ origin than invade it, yet none of them could negate what they saw.
A Depravita can teleport directly into a soul dimension, like an Inner Universe. Venganza went to the extreme, using Zurtur’s physical vessel as a bridge into True Soul inside Avernus’ origin. He could not enter with his physical body but sent the full power of his soul.
Venganza showed a cold smile as he grabbed Zurtur’s True Soul by the shoulders, opened his mouth, and bit the Archdevil’s head before swallowing it.
Zurtur’s True Soul was too weak due to the constant damage he had suffered and could do nothing to stop the Depravita from devouring him whole!
Terror, an absolute and utter terror, appeared in the Archdevils as they saw that scene, and it only grew when the Depravita focused on them. Running was impossible since none of them could leave Avernus’ origin, so fighting was the only way to survive.
During a point in their lives, all of the Archdevils’ True Souls had fought inside Avernus’ origin, giving them experience in these types of fights, so they lunged toward the Depravita.
The fear toward Venganza had united the Archdevils, something not short of a miracle but futile.
“Hmph!” Venganza sneered before vanishing, reappearing behind a Rank 8 Archdevil’s True Soul and splitting him in two. Before the others could react, he opened his mouth and swallowed the pieces.
Regarding spiritual fights, the Depravita Race was the undisputed number one. No one could match them, as their mere aura could corrode and corrupt True Souls.
Not to mention that while Venganza’s True Soul Path of Power was at Peak Rank 7, his soul force was already at Rank 8. After all, he was a Depravita with a Concept!
The Archdevils fought, screamed, and begged, but none of that worked, and in the end, all of them perished!
“¡AHHHHH!”
“¡AHHHHH!”
“¡AHHHHH!”
Screams echoed through all Avernus as the vessels of those Archdevils released one last mournful cry before the light in their eyes vanished. There was no True Soul left to control them, so they became nothing more than empty bodies.
Salomon and Issac, who had seen the entire battle from the Prima-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield, could not hide the shock that invaded their souls. None could see inside Avernus’ origin, but they saw the Archdevils’ vessels’ death, which could only mean someone directly took care of their True Souls.
“How did he do that!” Issac failed to control his emotions for a moment. He was stronger than Venganza but could have never achieved such a feat.
That was the difference between brute force and the control over unique forces.
Venganza did not take long to devour all those inside Avernus’ origin. Part of the reason was that the number of Rank 7 had diminished significantly a few hundred years ago as he abducted many of them to use in his Chaos-Order Unity Formation.
Despite the number of Archdevils’ True Souls not being exorbitating, the amount of energy Venganza devoured was still incredibly high.
The first thing that the Depravita did was burn that energy to push his power to the limit. He already erased all the Rank 8 Archdevils since he took care of their Omega Laws along with their True Souls, but there was still Zurtur.
To erase a Rank 9 life form, you must destroy the Omega Law inside the Prima Universe’s law matrix. The amount of brute power needed to do that was more than Venganza could deploy.
Nevertheless, Venganza did not need to use brute force, as he had End Origin Essence and Karmic Samsara Origin Essence.
A karmic thread emerged from Avernus’ origin, allowing Venganza to find Zurtur’s Omega Law inside the law matrix. Then he used around half of the soul force obtained from devouring the Archdevils’ True Souls to inject the power of End Origin Essence into it.
Without Zurtur’s True Soul to protect it, the Omega Law’s defenses were insufficient to resist the might of the End Origin Essence.
Venganza closed the connection with the law matrix a few seconds after that. It would only be a matter of time before Zurtur’s Omega Law fell into oblivion and the Rank 9 Archdevil vanished from existence.
Just like that, Venganza erased every Archdevil from Avernus, and he was far from over with the First Circle of Hell.
Venganza’s glanced at his body standing on Avernus’ surface and waved his hand, transforming it into a dark fog.
Just like when the Depravita first arrived, the dark fog began to expand and devour, and no one could stop him this time.
After that, he adopted a meditative position and began to devour the energy of Avernus’ origin.
Venganza devoured the body and soul of Avernus to feed the Virtual Dream Universe and allow this one to advance into Middle Rank 8!
