Chapter 867 The Final Fight (I)
Zatiel could feel his entire existence rising even higher as the combined power of the Eternal Flame of Justice and the Universal Samsara Truth flooded his body and soul.
He clenched his fist and was sure that if it weren’t for him controlling his strength, that simple action would have done irreversible damage to the Prima Universe.
‘I wonder just how strong I am?’ As that question crossed Zatiel’s mind, he turned around and stared at the Flame Imperator.
‘There is a way to find out.’
Killing intent emerged from the Neo-Demon Ancestor’s body, and due to his power, that mere emotion was enough to make the Prima Universe’s law matrix tremble. Zatiel had grown simply too powerful, and a standard super universe could not contain an existence like him.
“Should we fuse as well?”
Zatiel was surprised to hear those words and glanced at Venganza.
The Neo-Demon Ancestor knew very well just how much the Depravita of Revenge valued his individuality. Merging could affect that, especially with the current strength of Zatiel’s willpower.
It was clear just how important defeating the Flame Imperator was for Venganza.
Zatiel saw the resolution in the Depravita of Revenge’s eyes and smiled before softly shaking his head.
“I admire your determination, but there is no need for that. I achieved a perfect synergy with the Universe Will Incarnation and Primordial Body Incarnation because they were an extension of me. However, you are different. You are Venganza.”
Venganza was surprised to hear those words coming from Zatiel. He never feared that this one would force him to play the role of the Depravita Soul Incarnation since he was stronger, but things have changed.
Yet, even though it would help him become even stronger, Zatiel did not force that path.
“I guess you are truly fit to be called the Depravita of Justice.” Venganza’s voice carried a deep sense of respect.
Zatiel did not comment on the title and just smiled. He knew that a titled Depravita was the highest honor for the members of Sundered Night.
As Zatiel and Venganza spoke with smiles, pure terror invaded the Flame Imperator’s heart. He was a full-power True Rank 10 life form, yet his instincts could not stop screaming danger.
He and Zatiel were technically both life forms at the Fourth Realm, but the Flame Imperator felt like a little cat facing a mighty tiger when he focused on the Neo-Demon Ancestor.
‘I need more power!’ The Flame Imperator did not hesitate before turning around and flashing toward the Alpha Universe. Once there, he could ignite the shadow flames hidden in every Primordial and consume their existences to grow stronger. Although they were supposed to be an offering to his master, there was no point if he was dead.
When the Prima Universe’s warriors saw the Flame Imperator running to the Alpha Universe, they all figured out his purpose and utter disgust appeared on their faces.
“Master, you must stop him!” Ezequiel shouted with horror and panic. He knew that the Alpha Universe was Yami’s home and could not allow the Flame Imperator to ravage all life in it.
Zatiel knew everything that happened to the Primordial Legion, so he was also aware of the Flame Imperator’s nefarious plan.
“Hmph!” Zatiel only sneered before his figure shattered into billions of subatomic particles. For them, even the space-time of a super universe like the Alpha-Prima Universe was not capable of any form of restraint.
The Flame Imperator was about to cross into the Alpha Universe when a hand bathed in purple flames with golden runes grabbed his face and pushed him up.
Zatiel held the Flame Imperator’s head as he flashed to the Cosmic Wall and used the body of this one as a battering ram!
“¡BOOM!”
“¡BOOM!”
“¡BOOM!”
The Alpha-Prima Universe’s Cosmic Wall was incredibly resilient, so even for Zatiel, it was challenging to break it. Of course, the one that was truly having a hard time was the Flame Imperator, whose body the Neo-Demon Ancestor used as a hammer.
“CRACK!”
“¡AHHH!”
The Flame Imperator’s scream of pain accompanied the sound of the Alpha-Prima Universe’s Cosmic Wall breaking.
Zatiel did not hesitate to use the hole in the Cosmic Wall to drive himself and the Flame Imperator into the Emptiness.
The Flame Imperator was blasted into the distance while puking blood, but Zatiel did not chase. He was amazed by the incredible sight around him.
For most life forms, the Emptiness was a raging darkness with nothing but chaos, but Zatiel could see its true splendor, and it was magnificent.
Of course, the reason why Zatiel pushed the battlefield to Emptiness was not the scenario. He was ready to use all his power and did not want to harm the Alpha-Prima Universe.
For better or for worse, the Prima Universe and Alpha Universe would fuse into the Alpha-Prima Universe, and Zatiel needed to protect his new home.
Suddenly, an odd expression appeared on Zatiel’s face since he felt a restrictive pressure assaulting him. It came from the Emptiness itself and did not target just him but the Flame Imperator as well.
However, the suppression was much stronger on Zatiel than on his counterpart.
A bloody and wicked smile appeared in the Flame Imperator as he saw the restrictions that the Emptiness forces on Zatiel. He was aware of the Emptiness’s effect on Fourth Realm’s life forms meant to protect other universes from invasion, and the stronger you were, the mightier the restriction.𝒪𝐯𝑙xt.𝗇𝓔t
A burst of black and white flames emerged from the Flame Imperator’s body. He was ready to use all his power and would not save even an iota of his strength.
Zatiel noticed the look on the Flame Imperator’s face, but there was no worry in his eyes. If anything, there was some curiosity.
It was clear by this point that the Flame Imperator and Endless Darkness were one, but he still wondered about what truly happened with the piece of the Incarnation of Death and Destruction’s ego that reached the Alpha Universe.
“I can find all my answers after consuming your soul.” Zatiel did not say anything else before his golden sun along the blazing wheel burst with immense power, making even the Emptiness tremble.
Since he did not have to worry about collateral damage, Zatiel unleashed all his power.
“Time to finish this, once and for all.”
