Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World



"Dying worlds."

As a Rank 7 life form, Noah's sight reached a supernatural scale, allowing him to see millions of light years if he focused his energy in his eyes and nothing obstructed his view.

He saw how every single world in his sight was in its final days, some crumbling to dust right now. 

Worlds have a very long life, and while it could happen that they reached their end by natural causes, the fact that all of them were in that state was abnormal.

Noah initially thought a hidden force was acting over those worlds, taking their life. As a life from the Daybreak Universe, he could not tolerate that sort of behavior, and his Samsara Eye glowed, searching for that nefarious entity.

However, no matter how hard the Neo-Demon looked after it, he could find nothing. And when the Samsara Eye focused on those words, he was surprised to see that they had peacefully come to their end. 

"There is nothing wrong with those worlds. They are simultaneously arriving at their end, like all other life forms in this universe."

Zatiel spoke as he guided the sphere forward, moving at a shocking speed. It would have been easy to teleport to his destiny with his power, but he wanted Noah to see the universe. 

Noah was surprised by those words, and his father was right. In every direction, the only thing he could see was death. Worlds perished, stars lost their light, and suns dried up before turning into inert heavenly bodies. 

There were times when Noah saw intelligent life forms above Rank 6. Clearly, no one without a vitality capable of withstanding the passage of time could endure the force affecting the universe. 

Despite being Rank 7 and Rank 8 life forms, there was nothing of their majestic nature, and the only thing they did was rest in the core of stars that still retained some of their heat. 

It was a truly tragic and painful sight for someone like Noah, who had never experienced something like that in his life. He could not even imagine what those people felt, being one of few life forms still alive and spending their last moments in dismay with nothing around them.

"What is happening?"

Zatiel glanced at Noah before focusing on the third eye of the young Neo-Demon. 

"You should be able to see it."

Noah's eyes narrowed when he heard those words from his father. He took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and erased his empathy for the life forms in this universe before using the power of his bloodline and Samsara Eye.

The way the Samsara Eye showed him the universe was beyond the electromagnetic spectrum. It allowed Noah to perceive the matrix that sustained the universe itself, and there was a sense of overwhelming awe when he saw how the laws themselves were losing their life.

The matrix that gave form to reality was not only losing its power but moving back to its origin, the nucleus of the universe itself.

"The end of this Epoch?"

Zatiel softly nodded as he heard Noah's answer.

"That is right. The universe is reaching the end of its life. It will now preserve the core of the power of its laws in its nucleus before triggering the Epoch Explosion, marking the end of its First Epoch."

Noah's eyes filled with wonder, and the sadness vanished since he was not watching simple death but the extremely wonderful process where the life of a universe would be renewed.

This super universe was about to end its natural life, unleashing an explosion that would reduce everything to its more primal state before a new Epoch could begin, one where its ability to bring forth life would be even greater.

Zatiel and Noah followed their path into the universe's nucleus, and the young Neo-Demon looked in all directions with awe and wonder, trying to engrave the image of the end of times in his mind.

Noah did not know when he would have a change like this again and was not willing to miss any of it.

The Daybreak Universe was unlike other standard super universes. It was born out of the combination of the Alpha Universe, Prima Universe, and Eldritch Universe, and the blood and energy of countless powerhouses tempered its core during the Ultimate Multiversal War. 

Its lifespan was dozens, if not hundreds, of times larger than standard super universes. Its nucleus contained the essence of the Samsara Truth, allowing it to restore its life force without needing an Epoch Explosion.

Noah was too young and weak to know about secrets like the plans for the Daybreak Universe's Epochs, but he was sure that his father would not do something so short-minded like avoiding them. 

An Epoch Explosion could mark an end, but it would give birth to an even brighter beginning. Of course, the idea of letting everybody die was unthinkable, but the Daybreak Universe did not need to endure something like that.

There were dozens of Pseudo-Rank 10 life forms and three Thearchs that could spend eons in the Emptiness, protecting the entire population of the Daybreak Universe inside their Inner Universe until the new Epoch started.

In ten days, Zatiel and Noah manage to cross the entire universe, from the edge all the way into its nucleus.

The nucleus of a universe about to experience an Epoch Explosion was a fantastic sight. The essence of every law was already inside it, and an incredible amount of energy kept growing more and more unstable. 

Noah took a deep breath as he saw that majestic cocoon of energy, matter, and laws. He was too weak to discern the universal forces in motion inside it, but he was sure they belonged to a realm that maybe only someone like his father could understand.

Although it was evident to Noah that the reason his father brought him here had to do with the Epoch Explosion, he did not quite understand what he was supposed to do. According to the words of Zatiel back in the Daybreak Universe, this one was going to show him a path, and he needed to have the determination to take it, but he saw nothing like that.

Even a fool would know that someone like Noah could not comprehend the forces behind an Epoch Explosion, and there was not much to gain by just looking at the blast destroying everything other than to appreciate a majestic sight.

"Noah, what do you think is the power of your bloodline?"

Zatiel looks at the universe's nucleus completely differently than Noah's. His eyes could pierce beyond the physical plane, and his mind could decipher everything. There was no mystery for him.

The young Neo-Demon did not give an answer right away. While that question seemed simple, there was no way his father would have made it if that was the case. Only after considering everything did he speak.

"I have the Daybreak Bloodline running through my veins. That gave me an incredibly powerful and versatile soul force I can manipulate as a physical weapon and the ability to control the power of Samsara."

The answer was short, but speaking more would not improve it, and Noah was confident that was the correct answer.

Zatiel did not say a word nor indicate that Noah's answer was right or wrong. He only turned toward his son before looking at this one with a solemn expression on his face. 

Noah felt immense pressure when he saw those eyes since it was the first time he saw such severity in his father's eyes.

"Then what is your future path into the Fourth Realm?"

Although asking someone at Rank 7 about their path to the Fourth Realm might seem rushed, it was clear that Zatiel did not see it that way.

Noah felt the weight of that question in his soul. He knew that his father had a path to the Fourth Realm in mind from the moment the third life started, so his answer had to be one that showed just how much importance he gave to his cultivation. 

Luckily for Noah, the path to the Fourth Realm was something he had contemplated since he knew it was the cultivation rank his father had achieved.

"I will evolve my powers and future Omega Law into a force born out of Samsara, but that focused on the energies of end, allowing me to unleash a destructive capability that could equal the genesis power of Big Brother."

Noah knew that trying to copy the Samsara Truth would have been a mistake, not because of the complexity of this one, but the fact he would have never risen to the Fourth Realm by copying the path of others, even if he had their bloodlines running through his veins.

Zatiel softly shook his head when he heard Noah's answer before looking back at the nucleus.

"The Epoch Explosion is about to start. You will give me a new answer after it is over."

Noah trembled for a moment since it was clear by those words he was making a mistake. He was not foolish enough to try and argue about cultivation with his father, and he focused on the nucleus, waiting for the explosion.
