Chapter 847: Ending The Dark Disaster (2)
“Annihilate~”
As the cold voice echoed through the void, every dark beast in the Aeon Plane crumbled to dust.
Witnessing this incredible scene, as if someone had just erased the dark beasts from existence, all the powerhouses stood in shock.
What had they just seen? Whose voice was that? Had Lord Maximus advanced?
“Heal~”
With another voice, their bodies began to rejuvenate, their minds being cleansed, and their will sublimate.
All the powerhouses clinging to life by their core of origin also began to materialize, resurrecting as if nothing had happened.
This resurrection restored not only their bodies but also the essence and foundation they had lost.
Feeling their strength return to its prime, they suppressed their shock and prostrated in a single direction.
In that moment, they were certain: Maximus, no, the Master of the Aeon Plane, had arrived!
—
Meanwhile, after wiping out all the dark beasts and healing and resurrecting the fallen powerhouses, Maximus didn’t stop.
Gazing at the gaping holes scattered across the Aeon Plane, he commanded the Eye of Maxim with another word.
“Repair.”
Soon, the holes and crevices carved by the dark beasts began to close, healing at an astonishing speed.
Before their shock could settle, the plane’s barrier was restored anew.
“Not bad…”
Seeing everything returned to its former state, Maximus couldn’t help but smile.
At the same time, he marveled at his power, amplified by the Aeon Plane.
Within it, he felt he could do anything he imagined.
Though the same could be said outside, there were still limitations.
Maximus even felt that if the Origin Dark Beast were inside the Aeon Plane, a single command could bend it to his will.
Whether killing, sealing, or reshaping, the Origin Dark Beast would lie at the mercy of his hand.
Unfortunately, he didn’t dare to be so reckless.
Pulling the enemy inside just to kill it more easily wasn’t his style.
He didn’t want to inflict more pain on the Aeon Plane than it had already endured.
Though he could resurrect the stronger powerhouses, the same couldn’t be said for the weaker ones.
Their will and core of origin were too frail to survive the torrent of dark energy.
Just a wisp of it was enough to erase their entire sense of existence.
No spiritual fragments, no bodily tissues, not even the memories others held of them remained.
This was the horror of dark energy: no matter how powerful one was, if their existence was forgotten, how could they be resurrected?
Sighing in pity, he turned back to his family.
“Shall we return home?” Maximus smiled.
However, with the immense pressure Maximus emanated, even if they wanted to speak and voice their thoughts, their instincts compelled them to stay silent.
If outside the Aeon Plane, they only felt awe of his power; inside, they felt like lambs before a god.
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
Realizing he was the cause, he took out the Eye of Maxim and flicked it into the Chaos Void.
Though he could hide it, doing so would weaken his power against the Origin Dark Beast.
As if shedding the heavenly robes draped on his body, the overlords regained their ability to move freely.
Now unburdened, his family rushed to him, pouring out their emotions and excitement.
Seeing their husband so strong and commanding, his wives felt their hard work and perseverance had not been in vain.
With such power, they no longer had to worry about anything and could live however they wished.
Meanwhile, his children and grandchildren gazed at him with awe, as if their idol had come to life.
Such power, capable of erasing unbeatable enemies, healing all wounds, and restoring everything, seemed limitless.
Seeing the mountain they aspired to climb grow higher and more unreachable, they didn’t feel any discouragement but greater motivation.
Meanwhile, as his family laughed around him, Zar slowly flew forward.
“Maximus.”
“What, do you want to fight?”
“N-no, no. I’m still weak from the battle.” Zar hurriedly shook his head, not wanting to face Maximus.
Though he was a battle maniac, he still knew the difference between the strong and the weak.
If the gap weren’t so vast, he could still fight.
But facing Maximus, whose presence silenced even his voice, there wouldn’t be a battle at all.
“Then what is it?” Maximus smiled, not pressing Zar further.
“What do you plan to do now?” Zar asked, voicing the question on his mind and that of the powerhouses around them.
Now that Maximus had become the Plane Master, wielding such immense power that could wipe out the dark beasts, they wanted to know what came next.
Would the Aeon Plane undergo a massive change? Should they conquer another realm? Or return to training?
Eager for his command, they all perked up, listening intently.
“No need to do anything. Just rest…” Maximus said with a smile.
Having fought a desperate battle for nearly a hundred thousand years was enough.
Having defended the Aeon Plane with all their strength, Maximus only wanted the heroes to rest and recover.
“But…”
“Don’t worry, this isn’t the end. I just want you to take a break for a greater challenge,” Maximus said solemnly.
It might seem like everything was over, but it wasn’t.
With the Archon of Knowledge collecting information across the Planar Chaos Region, Maximus knew just how precarious their situation was.
The Aeon Plane sat on the outer periphery of the Chaos Region.
With the flood of dark disaster passing through like a swarm of locusts, ready to destroy everything, they were somewhat lucky to have faced only a fraction of the main vein of the disaster.
Because the flood of dark disaster swept through the middle of the Planar Chaos Region, they were safe for now.
However, Maximus estimated that in just hundreds of millions of years, the outer periphery would be overwhelmed by dark beasts.
Facing such an unstoppable tide, even if he used all the chaos energy around him, it would be futile.
At this stage, his only choice was to head to the Central Chaos Region to aid the Archon defend against the dark disaster.
Wanting to delay the inevitable, Maximus planned to use the time to advance to the Archon Realm!
